FEATURED PHOTOGRAPHER: DINA BELENKO

With her Pocket Idea Generator in hand, Dina empowers creators to overcome the blank canvas and embark on a journey of self-discovery. With a penchant for infusing magic into everyday scenes, she introduces us to a world where coffee cups become companions of explorers and cookies embark on fantastic adventures.

Dina's journey into the realm of still-life photography began as a quest for deeper storytelling, a desire to breathe life into static objects and unveil the hidden narratives they hold. Dina invites us to join her in exploring the wonders of the mundane.

Photographic Speciality/Style:

Conceptual still life photography

Short Bio:

I'm Dina Belenko, a conceptual still life photographer, coffee cup magician and master of story driven images.

My work primarily revolves around the narrative potential of inanimate objects. I strive to weave magical stories from the mundane, transforming everyday items like coffee cups, sugar cubes, and even spilled coffee into protagonists of their own tales. These objects, often overlooked, hold a fascination for me because of the stories they can tell.

Your images are amazing. Tell us a bit about your story and what drew you to the genre of still life photography?

My career began as a mere hobby that evolved significantly over time. Initially, my interest was scattered across various genres from capturing portraits in of friends to exploring landscapes and everything between. There wasn't a type of photography I hadn't experimented with, driven simply by the joy of hearing the camera shutter click.

However, as time passed, my approach to photography deepened. I began to seek a more substantial expression through my images, aspiring to tell stories rather than just capture moments.
