BIO
Dino Kužnik is a New York based Photographer, originally from Slovenia, Europe.
He uses photography as a medium to immortalize scenes that are aesthetically unique, with an emphasis on color and composition. Solitude is a driving factor behind Dino's personal work. It reflects a peaceful state of mind, one only attainable after total immersion within the environment he works in.
Experienced as a journalistic photographer, retoucher and a graphic designer of 7 years, he now mostly focuses on his personal body of work and commercial project ranging from artistic portraits, automotive, travel, landscape and documentary photography.
