"Nina 25. I was born in born in Bihać, Bosnia & Herzegovina. I graduated at Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo, and although my major was graphic design I quickly realized that photography is my true passion. In recent years I'm actively pursuing fashion, portrait and beauty photography, as well as high end retouching."

The denotations of this photograph is a young woman with  casual messy bun and a bandana, laughing underneath a blossom tree.  However,the connotations really depend on the viewer. To me the laugh looks genuine, however, staged. It's almost like, she can genuinely laugh but the atmosphere, her mask, that's all fake. They're not reflections on her most inner feelings.

The denotations of his photograph is a woman standing with her hands to a window pouting. The Connotations  of this photograph is very playful and light, I like the fact that the woman is not very young. It breaks the normal stereotype of older women not being fun. The photograph is very happy and light.

This photograph, seems to be beautifully tense. I like the way that the girl is looking straight at the viewer. She seems to be trying to say something. Her facial expressions are feel very obvious yet very complicated. It doesn't seem like a simple photograph of a girl staring into the camera can hold so much emotion, but it does. The its that covers her right eye could  be seen as naivety, a part of her is still a child and can't quite see things clearly, can't see for what things are.

this photograph, to me, represents a woman trapped inside a thunderstorm. The denotations are a woman with her hand on a windowglass, rain drops and a dead pan face. However, the rain creates the sad atmosphere. It is a pathetic fallacy effect. the way she looks lost,trapped be hid goes the impression that she cannot escape whatever she is trying to run from.
