Vaidas Gerikas
By Taking photos of people in Zagare, Vaidas looks at the generation that in only a few decades have witnessed a number of significant cultural and political changes. Through a series of simple posed portraits his aim is to capture individuals that were shaping Lithuania through these diverse and challenging decades (times), anyone- with no discrimination or agenda (irrelevant of their legacy). Every story that he listened to moved him, and everyone photographed is a hero of their own personal battles encountered.
This project has dramatically changed his relationship with our past and the hope is that in some way it will change the viewer's too.
Vaidas is a freelance photographer specialising in family, weddings, events, editorial and automotive photography.
His first steps in photography were helped by his godfather and local photographer Rekickas when he was 12.
During his student years, taking and developing photos became rather expensive, and he only resurrected his hobby in 2005 in the UK when his first commissions from Japanese performance magazine helped him to acquire his first digital camera. Wedding and family photography commissions followed and he went full time in 2014.
His creative, distinctive and intimate style means you'll have the perfect record of you and your special occasion.
He believes passionately in creating imagery that is intimate, unique and compelling. His approach is relaxed, friendly and all about unobtrusive storytelling.
