Hello! My name is Yuriy Bondarenko, and I'm a cinematographer from Ukraine.
In 2014, I started thinking about transitioning to shooting. It was a long-standing aspiration that originated when my grandfather gave me a camera as a birthday gift when I was 5 years old. However, I didn't start using the camera until I was 18. Despite facing personal difficulties, including my parents' illness, for 9 years, I continued my work as a post production specialist.
In 2023, I decided to return to my passion. I bought my first camera, a Blackmagic 6k with a Sigma18-35 lens, and started shooting. My first steps in shooting were in Ukraine, where I learned and adapted to the new equipment and nuances of image creation.
My passion for photography has always found inspiration in this land, which I often copied in my projects.
