Yuriy Ogarkov
Berlin - Barcelona - Kiev - Advertising, Sport and People Photographers
Yuriy is a German photographer, born in Ukraine and now mostly based in Barcelona.
His photographs are a mixture of elegance, burst of motion, atmospheric lights and precisely constructed compositions, where every element has its own place. Although Yuriy has already developed his recognisable style, his high technical knowledge, art director's thinking and curiosity to experiment make him a visual polyglot, which allows him to move flexibly between the photographic genres.
He is always well-prepared to meet his clients' needs. The combination of the German accuracy and the Eastern European spontaneity makes working with Yuriy fun, creative and reliable. Nevertheless Yuriy is also well connected with the production companies from Kiev, Ukraine, which can be helpful to find the most efficient solutions for the client's budget and needs while shooting in Eastern Europe.
As a passionate sports and martial arts practitioner for many years, Yuriy has worked as a model in the past. This all together gives him a much better understanding on how to direct his models, actors and athletes to get the best results.
