Meet Artem Shestakov | Photographer

We had the good fortune of connecting with Artem Shestakov and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Artem, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
I love risk and honestly I think that in order to get some extraordinary photos, every photographer who travels the world, needs to take on various challenges and embrace danger and discomfort to find that perfect shot. Too early, too far, too cold, too tired, for me it’s just become a new normal.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
Because artists endeavour to portray the different facets of life, a person who personally leads an exciting and meaningful life produces works that are especially powerful. This is one of the factors that contribute to the impact of my photos. My world travels have developed within me a deep understanding of and passion for landscapes and the wilderness. By utilising this, I am able to capture the majesty of my favourite subjects: mountains, deserts, and scenes of pure, natural beauty. Im also masterfully preserve the awe that these subjects inspire. I live a life of art, purpose and adventure.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Higher Point That You Can See Skyline.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
When i started doing my photography, one of my biggest inspiration was Peter Lik is an Australian photographer best known for his nature and panoramic landscape images.
