About

Good afternoon.

My name is Ksyusha Raudsep.

I started as a photographer in children’s homes. At the time I did not really understand where it would lead. I simply took the camera and looked.

Then came brands, magazines, advertising shoots, model tests. Beauty, product, billboards, marketplaces. A small product studio of my own. Retouching, which I have been doing for many years and which, for some reason, I still especially love.

I am probably not very good at dividing photography into separate parts.

Shooting. Retouching. A person. Light. An idea.

All of this has always been one story for me.

I am a photographer who prefers not to resist reality, but to befriend it.

That is why, at some point, AI appeared fairly naturally. I did not arrive there from another profession. I arrived with a camera, retouching, and the habit of looking at an image for a long time.

Now I work at the intersection of photography, AI, and visual art.

Sometimes I shoot. Sometimes I create an image from scratch. Sometimes I spend a long time retouching what already exists.

I like it when something living remains in a picture. Even if half of that picture never existed.

If you have an idea, a brief, or simply a feeling that you want to make something beautiful and a little unlike the usual, let’s work together.
