Boris Savelev, born 1947

Boris began his interest in photography in 1963. In 1972, he graduated from the Moscow Aviation University and worked as an engineer. Since 1982, Boris has worked on a freelance basis for publishing houses in the USSR and abroad. Presently, Boris works exclusively on his own projects. He uses various cameras, preferring the Leica M3 with a 50mm lens. Boris prints all his photos himself using traditional and alternative (platinum, gum-bichromate) techniques.
