Andrei Duman




Romanian born and raised, Andrei moved to the United Kingdom as a teenager where he completed his undergraduate and Master in Finance and Investment from the University of York. His love of travel and adventure started from his professional tennis playing days where he would frequently visit far off lands. Even during his 12 years in the investment banking industry in New York he continued to explore and develop his style, with his camera never being too far away. With 83 countries under his belt he is well versed in the multitude of cultures and customs. He swam in Jellyfish Lake in Palau, hiked amongst the Moai statues on Easter Island, explored the local fish markets of Zanzibar, took a sunrise hot air balloon ride over the Masai Mara, captured the aurora borealis in Greenland and went hunting with the remote San tribesmen of Namibia, all with camera in tow. He is always on the lookout for his next challenge, be it a new technique, a new way of capturing a subject or using new technology to produce a different look and style. He thrives when working under pressure and when the projects are complex in nature, with multiple moving aspects. He is fanatical when it comes to the quality of his work, his dedication to achieving the clients vision and ensuring that he provides a professional and mutually creative environment for all that work with him. When not traveling, he can be found experimenting in his studio trying to create customized creative solutions for his clients. He is obsessed with the concept of producing unique visions that capture the true essence of the subject in front of him. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife Susan and his 2 cats - Foo and Smash. Andrei is a proud Ambassador and Field Instructor to Phase One Cameras, shooting on the world's largest camera sensor - IQ4 (150 Mega Pixels) as well as a Global Brand Ambassador to Eizo Monitors.
