Titian Tinted – Old School Photography by Oleg Oprisco
“A true artist is not defined by his instruments.” – an old saying which is an apt description of Oleg Oprisco’s artistic inclinations. He’s a photographer who loves taking shots with an old, outdated, film camera. Looking at his pictures, one would assume that he uses loads of high-tech gear with more megapixels than you could shake a stick at. In truth, the excellence of his work comes down to two things: artistic vision and meticulous planning. None of his images are spur-of-the-moment shots. Oleg is a modern-day Titian whose subjects are all redheads. I guess he just loves the way their hair makes a striking contrast with just about everything. His advice for would-be photographers: “If you really feel this is your calling, go for it to the extreme. Drop your job and everything and just shoot; the rest will follow.”
