Surrealism and steampunk in the works of art photographer Vladimir Fedotko

St. Petersburg photographer Vladimir Fedotko creates amazing photographs that evoke admiration, smiles and tenderness. Thanks to his imagination, virtuoso mastery of photographic equipment and photo editors, this master opens up amazing worlds for the viewer, populated by fairy-tale characters and strange creatures. (Caution! Nudity).

Vladimir Fedotko was born in 1991 in Leningrad. He has been interested in photography since he was five years old, when he first got his hands on his father's old camera. Vladimir graduated from the Institute of Cinematographers, then entered the Herzen University in the Fine Arts Department.

During his life, Vladimir Fedotko changed many professions. He even had to work as a loader in a warehouse. But, despite everything, he continued to search for his style in photography and found it relatively recently.

The master believes that aesthetics and artistic expressiveness of the image are important in art photography. It makes no difference how this is achieved. Reportage photography requires authenticity, and the direction in which Vladimir works does not limit his flight of fantasy.

Vladimir Fedotko's works immerse us in amazing worlds where dreams and fantasies live. The photographer is often accused of having more Photoshop in his works than real photography. This does not bother the author. Vladimir is sure that if the photo is bad, no post-processing will save it. No one will call Fedotko's photos boring, which means he does everything right.

Another interesting photographer working in a similar genre is Max Sauko from Irkutsk.
