About Tinatini

​I grew up in Tbilisi with a blue Nokia 5300 in my pocket – a birthday gift that turned my world into a series of experiments with color and light. That childhood curiosity eventually led me to a Zenit 122, where I learned the slow, disciplined magic of analogue photography. I still remember the ritual of dropping off rolls at the Kodak shop near Marjanishvili Square, waiting for those 36 frames to reveal what I’d captured.

​Life eventually took me through European universities and into the fast-paced world of corporate career, but I never stopped looking at the world through a lens. Even in the middle of it all, the instinct to observe and preserve stayed with me. Now based on the Baltic coast of Poland, photography is my way of archiving time. For me, these aren’t just compositions – they’re fragments of a life lived, and I hope they let you feel something quiet and real.
