About Kotryna

Hi, I'm Kotryna — a documentary and editorial photographer with over 10 years of experience working internationally. Originally from Lithuania, I’ve lived and worked across Europe, South America, Asia, and now New Zealand, always with my camera by my side. My work focuses on real stories and human connection, often exploring themes like identity, place, and memory. I’ve photographed for publications, collaborated on documentary films, and exhibited my work, but what I love most is helping others connect with their own creative voice. Teaching photography allows me to share not just technical skills, but the deeper, more intuitive side of image-making — how to see, feel, and respond to the world around you. In my photography, I playfully blend an array of styles, all dancing to the rhythm of a commitment to keeping it real and unstaged. Picture this: forming genuine connections with clients, stealthily staying incognito to capture authentic moments, and striking a harmonious balance between meeting client expectations and adding my creative touch. In my own documentary-style dance, I take a wild spin, challenging the norms in wedding photography and making the preservation of natural emotions a visual meditation. I have an education in Graphic Arts and Design at Leeds Beckett University, the UK and Photography and Communication at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. If you're curious about documentary photography and want to develop your own way of seeing, I’d love to guide you on that journey.
