About

Iris Maria Tusa, Street Photographer based in Bucharest, Romania. I think of myself as an observer, driven with passion and a dash of madness. I am always searching for the perfect place, perfect timing, perfect shot. I tend to be a perfectionist. My favorite spots for taking photos are the rural areas from Romania, mostly Dobrogea County but I also shoot in Bucharest or abroad (from Asia to Antarctica) as I always travel a lot.

I shoot mainly with digital cameras and use currently an Fujifilm XT3 but I also experiment with Polaroid cameras and analog – Cannonet QL17.
