JOZEF KISS Slovakia jozefkiss.com I was born in a little town on the southwest of Slovakia, and now I live in Veľký Meder. Photography has always been my passion, since early childhood, but I decided to study architecture, and I work in that field. Making photos is my hobby, and I do not use expensive equipment. All my photos are taken with a Nikon D3100, initially with the Nikkor 18-105 kit lens, and currently using a Nikkor 1.8/50mm. All models are friends. My photography focuses on portraits, sometimes making still life work as well, but what I love most is low key photos. Preferably, I use a special light setup, with nothing but a reflector and flashes with umbrellas, soft boxes, and beauty dishes. Some of my works have been published in Cameraraw.it and 1x.com, and one of my still life photos was published in Vogue.it. As MonoPix 2016© | 6
another great honor, I was allowed to share a number of my photos in the Monopix book ’’Faces of the World” earlier this year. Also, I have been involved with Artfreelife.com as an editor/curator, but I had to stop doing so due to a lack of time. I’d like to thank Monopix editors Jessica Schaap and Dick Visser for the selection of my work, and all of my models for their hard work: Alexandra Mikos, Eszter Csicsai, Andrea Garai, Mercédesz Mészáros, Edina Csóka, Ramona Nagy, and Barbara Hegyi!
