Welcome to Oliver Papp photography – creative visual storyteller.
I`m an internationally published photographer and I believe:
“Pictures speak louder than words.”
ARS POETICA
Photography is an immortalized moment. It is kind of a movement that will never be repeated and which lifts across the work into eternity in its frozenity. It is a subjective thing where free way must be given to the personality.
As I see: I walk around the situation and then either I find a composition or my attention is drawn just by the magic of the very moment and that is how I catch the accurate topic. I have ambition to newish effects to be able to give unique colour and form to my pieces of work. This is my managing principal which makes serious effects on my art projects.
The responsibility and power of the photographer is to save the form from decay which gives home to mental and psychical essence.
