Andrei Păcuraru

He photographs points, lines, shapes and geometries; he has a special inclination for photographic technique and composition. He has been a photographer for over 15 years, a lecturer and a member of the National Association for Contemporary Visual Arts. Self-taught, he formed his style through commercial photography, photojournalism and conceptual photography. His works have been exhibited both in Romania and abroad. He is currently the custodian of the PAC Collection, a personal archive started in 2006 that contains over 10,000 unpublished photographs. He does not necessarily like to present his photographs online, so his images can be seen illustrating books, on their covers or in exhibitions. Last but not least, Andrei thinks in series and projects; he always finds the common thread, he is honest and extremely captivating. An expert in photographic technique, he explains the process of photography like no one else. Andrei was part of the core team in the construction of the center and you can meet him at courses and workshops as a lecturer but also at CdRF events.

Adi Bulboaca
Adrian Bulboacă

He photographs artists, shows, trains, train stations and moments that evoke emotions; he is one of the most famous theater photographers in Romania. You see a Bulboacă almost every time you look at posters with theater shows. He started by photographing his fellow actors of his generation and continued until he exceeded a thousand theater, dance and performance shows photographed. For many years he has been the official photographer of several theater festivals, the TIFF festival or cultural events in Romania. Lately he has discovered his passion for running and when he is not photographing, he prepares for or participates in marathons. Adi is the kind of photographer for whom no sacrifice is too great, in the sense that, if he is in a new place, he gives up activities such as socializing or sleeping to explore with his camera in hand. He believes his role is to give back to the community and truly sees the importance of the role of the teacher, the guide, the mentor. Adi has enthusiastically joined the center and you will be able to meet him at CdRF at classes and workshops, but also at our events. We also invite you to see his photos and get a limited edition print.

In addition to fashion pictorials, he is passionate about the performance sector and has photographed entire series of artists, especially from theater and dance; he was Adi Bulboacă's mentor, still sharing the same studio. He feels at ease when he has the camera in his hand, knows how important teamwork is and is very generous with information when teaching. In recent years, he has moved to product photography and creates visual stories for clients. He likes the border between photo and video, often using elements of movement in photography. Ionuț completed the core team of the center, structuring practice sessions in the studio and preparing the room for developing analog photographs. You will meet him during the center's courses or workshops, but also at CdRF events.

She successfully moves through multiple roles – from researcher, to artist or teacher. She joined us to continue promoting archival photography, to continue sharing her knowledge of photography with the public, and to support our efforts to internationalize Romanian photography.

Andreea Leu
Andreea Irina Leu
CEO and co-founder

She has been photographing since she was 11 but she is not a photographer; she is just hopelessly in love with photography. For her, photography means memories and history, it means moments captured forever. The day job, for the last 20 years is a very technical one that combines consulting on non-reimbursable funds with research and management. She also likes to create stories (through writing or photos, doesn't matter). CdRF is a natural continuation of the Walk&Shoot photography workshops, which encompases all her professional experience accumulated over time . You can meet Andreea at the center, at CdRF events or as a stylist at makeup and hairstyle workshops (she has also done this for the past 20 years).

Cristian Crisbășan is not the photographer who looks for "beautiful things". Often looking to step out of his comfort zone, his portraits and nudes are honest and provocative. "The New Erotic Photography" and "The Big Book of Pussy" (published by TASCHEN) are just two art albums in which his photographs have been published. We invite you to take one limited edition print signed by him. 

Hajdu Tamás is a veterinarian and photographer in Baia Mare, Romania. His photography is ironic and playful, but at the same time dramatic. Over time he had several exhibitions, won a series of photo contests and his photos were included in Romanian and international photo magazines. In the past we did a photo workshop together and we will repeat the experience as soon as possible. Until then we invite you to view his photos and choose one limited edition print signed by him.

We consider them the best for printing and photo framing. All prints in our store are made at them, all prints for CdRF exhibitions are made at them. We recommend them with confidence.

Among the most luminous and welcoming photography studios we've entered. It is shared by Adrian Bulboacă and Ionuț Staicu, and it is neighbouring with unteatru (one of the main independent theaters in Romania). At Opera Studio we will host some of our meetings and the practical parts of courses or workshops that require a well-equipped, equipped and spacious studio.
