Olga Planet
About
My name is Olga C. Hanyecz. I am a European girl who was born and raised in the heart of Asia. So far I traveled to 65 countries and have lived in four of them. I have seen a lot, met different people and have made many friends along the way. Instead of writing a book about my adventures I chose to show it through pictures. I graduated from the biggest and oldest photography school called the New York Institute of photography and I chose to name my company Olga Planet. With 20 years of experience, I have covered a wealth of different projects such as advertisement, postcards, food photography, digital composition art, and of course people. I have always tried to make my pictures as personal as possible and so far it has paid off with great gratitude and appreciation from my clients.
About seven years ago I was approached by a few of my previous clients asking for lessons to teach everything needed to know from the basics to more advanced photography and visual art. I had students from different age groups and nationalities, with kids and adults alike. On the end of the road I found more pleasure to be o teacher and a mentor than a photographer. Some of my students became quite famous and I always proud of there achievements. You can learn more about me and my vision on www.olgaplanet.shutterfly.com I have a website for my students as well. There we like to share our work, thoughts and experience but decided to keep it private until someone new became part of my photo school.
Art is a pure pleasure. I love to relax, look around and tell the stories with my camera.
