about myself

In 2005 I finished a course of photography at the State Institute of Cinematography. Photography for me is a vocation turned profession

Finished a course of photography at the VGIK

In 2005-2006 I worked as a photographer for The New York Times and The International Herald Tribune

Since 2007 I work for The Moscow Multimedia Art Museum photographing various events in the life of the museum

The Moscow Multimedia Art Museum

I worked in various fields of photography and obtained experience in event and street photography, in shooting wedding parties, musical events like concerts and making pictures for record covers and posters

Experience in object photography I acquired working for the Sky Horse Publishers which made three books with my photos: Apple, The History of a Computer and two volumes of The One Hundred Objects of the USSR Era

Also, I like taking pictures in the jenre of street photography, landscape, abstract pictures and I find it interesting “to chronicle” the life of creative underground

As a grandson of Yakov Khalip Sr. one of the classics of Soviet and world photography and named after him, I feel a certain responsibility for following the trade of my granddad and maintaining the traditions and high standards set by him

Heir to the classic of world photography
