I am a professional Cinematographer/ Director of Photography based in Kazakhstan, specializing in narrative visual storytelling, frame composition, and light design. Grounded in classic cinematic traditions and analog film aesthetics, my work spans narrative short films, visual art exhibitions, and international film festival delegations. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Cinematography from the Kazakh National University of Arts, developing a rigorous foundation in camera operation, optical theory, set lighting safety, and crew management. Also I was selected as the chief photographer representing a cinema delegation at the Cannes Film Festival during my undergraduate studies, documenting international industry proceedings and networking within the global festival ecosystem. Across my career, I have served as Director of Photography on 14 short narrative films, developing a diverse filmography across drama, psychological narrative, and visual experimentation. In addition to motion picture cinematography, I maintain an active practice in fine art photography, which directly informs my cinematic framing and lighting design. I authored and mounted a curated solo exhibition featuring 50 original photographic works. The gallery collection explored light-and-shadow geometry, portraiture, and atmospheric landscapes, demonstrating my unified artistic voice across both still and moving images.
