Irina Kudres — photographer. Co-founder of Panoramica creative studio in Italy.
— I became a photographer relatively recently, but have been doing photography all my life. I started by founding one of the first online wedding magazines in Moscow, Russia, continued with organizing photo sessions for colleagues in a German startup in Malaysia and came to photojournalism and book publishing in Italy and Europe.
My goal is to show how simple beauty is: whether it is the story of a person, the story of a place or rather both.
My two main directions are personal portrait and documentary stories. I also shoot sport, cultural and other community events of all sizes.
In total, there are 50+ photographic works in my CV and portfolio, that allowed their heroes to get to know themselves better, show and tell about the peculiarities of their lives, and attract a wide audience.
As a writer, I am an a co-author of two books in two languages: an interview collection “Beyond the Italy Divide” and a photo story “Another odyssey“.
As a speaker, I participated in more than 20 online and offline events with public talks about working in digital and has done several interviews for various popular media, blogs and newsletters.
My other creative- and travel-related achievements include 10+ personally organized creative hikes in the Italian Alps for 30+ people; mentorship of a woman working in digital via my international consultancy started in 2018; and studying for a master’s degree “Planning and Management of Tourism Systems” at the University of Bergamo, Italy.
Prior to Italy, during my travels, I lived in Malaysia for a year and in Germany for a few months, and visited more than 30 countries, mostly in Europe. I lived most of my life in the big cities. Through my traveling and seeing different not ordinary ways of living, I remembered my childhood dream to live in the countryside and made it a reality.
I speak three languages: fluent English, basic Italian and native Russian.
There are more than 100 positive reviews about working and communicating with me.
