My name is Iva Krapež and I’m from Nova Gorica, Slovenia. Photography was my companion since my early years.
I still clearly remember the first camera I ever received. It was my 10th birthday and the camera was a Beirette 35 mm. I always had to ask my parents for money to buy black and white film rolls.
Following were memorable and exciting years with color film and my anxiety while waiting for the film to be developed – so I could see what kind of shots I managed to take.
I had the most fun taking pictures every day as a professional photographer for a corporate newspaper.
Photography techniques changed a lot through the years. Digital photography opens the door to everyone who desires to engage their creativity, use their imagination, and boldly turn their dreams into an even better visual image.
I’m interested in taking photos of scenery, even when I have to return to the same spot over and over again – until I catch just the right light or season.
I love macro photo shots in which I always discover some unexpected details.
Fruit still life captures are challenging, because my goal is to present a motif that is well known to everyone from another angle.
Most of all, I enjoy portrait photography which allows me, for just a moment, to capture a human soul.
To the question photographers around the world get asked all the time, “Which is your best photo?” – my answer is, “The one I haven’t taken yet!”

These are really gorgeous photographs; the color is so vivid and the detail amazing. Some interesting compostion too, especially the cherries and the grapes. The lighting is really masterful!
Res lepo, da zna nekdo tudi sadje predstaviti v umerniški lu?i. Videti je, da se zelo rada vra?a k naravi in to so umetniki posebne vreste. Super Iva, videti je , da res uživaš in osebnostno rastesteš z slikanjem.
Translation: It’s really nice that someone can present fruits in such an artistic ways. It looks like you like to return to nature over and over again, like all the special kind of artists. Super Iva, you seem to enjoy very much and grow your personality while doing the photography.
