Hello, my name is Lea. Photography is, besides drawing, one of my greatest passions. Rather than a way of expressing myself, I consider photography to be a source of new information and different ideas.

I started to take photographs many years ago, first using my grandfather's rangefinder camera, then my own film camera. Nowadays I mostly take photographs with a digital camera, because it's very practical. But sometimes, I still like to pick up my film camera and in such occasions, I use Fujifilm.

It's in my interest to capture something that catches my eye, moments and things I find unforgettable. Besides a couple of unsuccessful attempts, I've never been an admirer of long exposures and wide-angle lenses – or anything that makes a photograph look artificial. 

I'm a firm believer in one camera per - lifetime. I have no interest in the camera itself... It's the subject that draws my attention to the photographs.

I reside in a small corner on the edge of the forest quite near to Kranj, Slovenia. My inspiration is built upon little fragments; it's in the nature; I find it when I'm traveling; it's in the gentle breeze on a sunny day; but above all, it's in the words that I write.

I like to read magazines and newspapers and watch good documentaries. And I'm always writing, using paper napkins, my notebook, postcards, and alike...

My photographs are minimally edited in Aperture
