Elizaveta Musienko


Elizaveta Musienko is a photographer based In St. Petersburg. She has developed a passion for photography 7 years ago but only now she has really understood what she wants to devote: people and their emotions. She is inspired by many different things like the beauty of people but especially by details like bottomless eyes, delicate hands and shoulder but also wind, sea and trips.
Her favourite photographer is Paolo Roversi and she dreams to learn from him.
About the future, Elizabeta doesn't even know what expect from her works, at the moment she just likes shooting and sharing beauty with others through her eyes.

Elizabeta Musienko è una fotografa che vive a San Pietroburgo. Ha sviluppato la sua passione per la fotografica 7 anni fa ma solo recentemente ha davvero capito a cosa vuole dedicarsi: le persone e le loro emozioni. Dice di sentirsi ispirata da tante cose differenti come la bellezza della gente  ma soprattutto dai dettagli come, la delicatezza delle mani e delle spalle e inoltre dal vento, il mare e i viaggi.
Il suo fotografo preferito è Paolo Roversi e sogna di poter imparare da lui. Riguardo il futuro, Elizabeta non sa ancora cosa aspettarsi dai suoi lavori, al momento le piace solo fotografare convidere con gli altri la bellezza attraverso i suoi occhi.
