Julo Kotus

Julius started with analog BW photography at high school. After university studies went to Aberystwyth (Wales) for voluntary work at Plas Lluest Centre for people with learning disabilities. He took one year BW photography course at the University Art Centre in Aberystwyth with well known photographer Ron Davies and built up a darkroom for people with learning difficulties. After one year of voluntary work successfully applied for a grant for own photography project in London. He has worked nearly 10 years as a full time photographer for magazine, advertising company and on his own photography business. Julius is now working as an Editor in chief in PRO.Laika, the largest specialised camera store in Bratislava, Slovakia. He is lucky enough to have time to photograph his own themes and to choose photography genre that he loves – document, reportage and street photography. He loves to capture people in everyday life, but also goes out to photograph different stories from untouched life of slovakian shepherds through charity golf to Gentleman Sailing regata.
