Maya Kapouski

Prepare to be swept into the colourful, magical world of the young Spanish photographer.

Aspiring photographer and art director Maya Kapouski studied Fine Arts in the idyllic Pontevedra, on Spain’s north-west Iberian Peninsula. Following that course she remained at the University of Vigo to pick up a Masters in Contemporary Art.

Having finished her studies, she went on to undertake two internships, in Berlin and Galicia respectively. Her photography comprises of both digital and analogue photography, but she has kept a photo diary, shot exclusively on film since she was a teenager. Maya’s command of light and composition makes for beautiful viewing, the everyday seeming magical. Some of her shots are so perfectly arranged that they would not look out of place in a Wes Anderson film. Quite an achievement with analogue photography.

Maya has also built an impressive portfolio of fashion shoots, which further showcase her eye for breathtaking composition to sublime effect. Any fashion shoot that captures the gaze and raises a smile in equal measure has turned out very well. We can’t wait to see what she puts together with a production budget at her disposal. Watch this space.
