CURRENT MISSION
Try to change something in this world with social photography projects
ABOUT ME
Then i was a child i had a dream - to invent something, that can change the things around me. That idea led me to science career, I was educated as biophysicist, and worked in lab for 5 years. I was PhD student, when i decided to change my path from science to photography. There were several reasons for that decision. Now i work as documental photographer, but still remember about my dream. I use photography as visual language that need no translation to express my ideas and thoughts.
Most of the time i work on social projects, that aimed on solving and highlighting problems i see around me. As a volunteer i work a lot with charity organizations. Also i volunteered during Sochi2014 olympics. I was teamleader of M5 corse preparation crew team. I had 18 people in my team, and only one was from Russia. All others were all other the world - USA, Canada, Austria, France, Germany, UK ) That was great experience!
Usually i travel much, trying to find interesting and important stories. If you've read this and you have an idea for this type of project - please contact me, i'll be happy to help if i can. Some of my documentary photography can be seen here : http://doc.unitsyn.com/ In Russia you can't make money from documentary photography, so i shoot weddings in documetnal style to get some funds for equipment and life. If you have a wedding in interesting place and interested in my style of photography, contact me, usually i agree to work "for food" with couchsurfers )) Some of my wed photography can be seen here : http://wed.unitsyn.com/
Also i'm a lecturer of photojournalism in Novosibirsk State University, so if you have questions about photography - feel free to ask )

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas. /George Bernard Shaw/
