Guest Speaker - Lev Savitskiy
Lev Savitskiy is a self-taught professional fine-art photographer and high-end retoucher from Odessa, Ukraine. His first steps in both photography and Photoshop were made when he was 13 years old, in 1999. His first camera was a Japanese film camera - “Yashica”. For the good or the bad, the whole “film” process didn’t really stick with him at the time, but he continued his experiments with Photoshop, until much later in 2005 he got his hands on the first digital camera, which changed everything for him. Not only he could see the results right away without the need to develop them, but he could finally merge his two passions together – photoshop and photography.
Right now, he shoots with Nikon D850, Nikkor 105mm 2.8, Nikkor 50mm 1.8, Sigma 14-24 2.8, Sigma 150-600 5-6.3.
Since then, he has managed to work in almost every genre there is, because he never really wanted to limit himself to any single genre. He enjoys photography in general, but if he had to pick a few of his favorites it would be landscapes, beauty portraits, composites and automotive photography.
In 2013 he was invited to the Ukrainian Association of Professional Photographer and year later he also became member of Federation of European Photographers. In 2018 he also became member of National Society of Photo Artists of Ukraine.
Since 2005 his works were exhibited in countries like: USA, England, Sweden, Qatar, Austria, France, Romania, Portugal, Germany, Poland, India and, of course, Ukraine. His works were also recognized by multiple international contests, including contests held by the Federation of European Photographers (where he was placed among Top 10 Portrait photographers in 2015), International Photography Awards, Trierenberg Super Circuit, Fine Art Photography Awards, Al-Thani and others.
Right now, he works as a full-time Senior Retoucher at one of the biggest production agencies in Hollywood on movie posters and any other promo-materials for various movie studios. Despite having a full-time job as a retoucher, photography remains his biggest passion.
