Tatiana was born in NY and raised in Barcelona. Before getting into photography she
studied philosophy in Montpellier, American literature and filmmaking in Barcelona, followed
by journalism studies at UCLA. She speaks several languages.
While writing for publications in the US and Spain, she discovered photography and was
seduced by the infinite possibilities provided by f-stops, shutter speeds and film emulsion.
"I fell in love with catching the "moment". Making people look beautiful was initially
easy for me and drew me in , but capturing the "essence" was the real challenge." A few
years back, after much resistance,Tatiana turned to digital picture taking and if was instant
infatuation.
Tatiana has specialized in portrait photography shooting for publications in Europe and
the U.S. Some of the magazines include Vogue, GQ, The London Telegraph, People En
Español. She has completed advertising campaigns for Merck Pharmaceutical.
In this exhibit, Tatiana continues to show us her portraits, this time not of people but
Icebergs. She combines her love for travel, landscape photography and philosophy
in these images of fluctuating and unstable ice sculptures. "They are here now and will
melt tomorrow to rebuild again with the changing season, never to be the same again.
The continuous passage of time and our human influence on nature."
