invited guest: Andrzej Jakubowski

Several years ago, when I started my adventure with photography on of Polish portals I met a group of people who's work went straight to my heart. Andrzej "Frog" Jakubowski was one of them. My personal approach and reception of photograpy have changed, Andrzej's photography has changed, but what he made and what his making now still makes me think, that is what is really about (for me) in photography.

You can understand better what I mean thanks to Andrzej's words about his philosophy of photographing:
The biggest prize is when someone comes back some time later to see your photograph, when someone looks at it over and over again, when your snaps makes someone stop for a moment. I want to show everyday life, I want to show things I can see around me. People and the world around them. A little bit of form and a little bit of emotions. A simple story.









It's worth to mention that Andrzej is one of the pillars of "już późno" group with Joanna Kinowska, Artur Allan Willmann and Michał Macioszczyk.
More you may find on Andrzej's web site codzienne (everyday)

    "A little bit of form and a little bit of emotions. A simple story"
    I think the combination of form and emotions...is great and wonderful not only a simple story.
    I like the photos and have some favorites. But my english isn´t enough to explain my feelings for them in the right way.
