Valerie Sagura & Andriy Shurpin

Valerie Sagura and Andriy Shurpin (Slowly Joe) and work as a team making still life images for commercial clients.

Both photographers live and work in Kyiv, Ukraine.

“We started doing still life photography in 2020 during the COVID pandemic, when everything was closed. A room, a camera, and random props we wanted to photograph — that's how our journey in this field began. Over time, it grew into personal projects and commercial activities. We are fascinated by the combination of unusual things and shapes; we can find beauty even in the most ordinary things. We often shoot with soft lighting, which gives our work a cozy feel.”

“We explore plants through their shape and texture, changing their natural colour and using proprietry image processing to look at the plant from a different, unusual angle.”
