I am a photographer with a deep passion for capturing the essence of performing arts, particularly stage, opera, and ballet. My love for photography is intertwined with my lifelong connection to music. I can truly say I’m living my dreams.
Photography is just one of my many passions. I also work as a radio host at Radio 1, Slovenia’s most listened-to radio station. My voice can be heard as the image voice for Radio 1, Pro Plus TV stations, and in various commercials and cartoons.
In the past, I sang with several bands, and winning the Slovenian national pop festival remains one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. Now, I’m content with singing in the shower and playing double bass in an orchestra. There’s a unique joy in being at the back and always low!
Writing is another love of mine. I used to write primarily for myself and my blog, but in 2018, I embraced a new challenge: writing for over 20,000 readers of GRAZIA magazine. I sometimes feel like an unconventional version of Carrie Bradshaw, albeit with fewer clothes, fewer shoes, and no sense of fashion.
As a photographer, I specialize in performing arts and collaborate with prestigious institutions such as the Slovenian National Opera and Ballet Ljubljana, Slovenian Philharmonic, Cankarjev dom, Slovenian Chamber Music Theatre, Ljubljana Festival, and Ulysses Theatre, among others.
My passion for scuba diving has inspired me to explore underwater photography and videography, adding another dimension to my creative pursuits.

I’m also honored to serve as a Canon R brand ambassador for performing arts, allowing me to combine my love for photography with cutting-edge technology.
My musical journey includes playing piano, studying classical solo singing for six years, and playing double bass in the Novo mesto Symphony Orchestra for the past two decades.
Through my diverse experiences in photography, music, radio, and writing, I continue to explore new ways to express creativity and share my passion with others.
