"The Birch Tree"
Sergey Yesenin, 1913
Just below my window
Stands a birch-tree white,
Under snow in winter
Gleaming silver bright. On the fluffy branches
Sparkling in a row
Dangle pretty tassels
Of the purest snow. There the birch in silence
Slumbers all day long
And the snow gleams brightly
In the golden sun.
And the dawn demurely
Going on its rounds
With a silver mantle
Decks again the boughs.

Ekaterina began photographing as a teenager at the age of 14. And of course, it was analog photography. Shooting on a Zenith, playing with exposure, developing and hand printing.
In the 2000's came the era of digital photography, and from the middle of the decade Ekaterina began to engage in reportage photography.
In 2016, she returned to analog photography again.
Now in her work she explores association as a way to connect pictures of the surrounding reality with sensory experience. Her photographs reference books she has read, movies she has watched, music videos, works of art, and simple stories that happen in everyone's life.
The genre of portraiture attracts her with its ability to show the human gaze and real emotion, be it joy, peace, tension, dramatic strife in the soul.
Ekaterina prefers to capture the moment when shooting and takes a film camera even on a simple walk in the park.
