Konrad Krzysztof Gwozdz (b. 1976, Warsaw, Poland) is a Welsh-based photographer who immigrated to the UK in 2014. He holds a Foundation Degree in Arts in Photography (Distinction, 2021) and a Bachelor of Arts in Photography (2022) from the University of South Wales. Gwozdz specialises in poignant portraiture that bridges the past and present, creating images that are both minimalist in composition and rich in narrative. His work is characterised by a timeless aesthetic and a focus on emotive storytelling.
In his realistic and impactful portraits, Gwozdz intentionally homes in on the face and eyes of his subjects. By doing so, he evokes a powerful emotional response in the viewer, allowing for a deep, personal connection with the model. This distinctive approach results in a lasting impression, ensuring that his beautiful and expressive portraits remain memorable long after they are viewed. His work has earned him recognition, with pieces featured in select publications and a recent piece included in a group exhibition.
My photo shoot with Konrad was to build my modelling portfolio, I went in with rather a specific brief in mind and he did an amazing job of making my vision come to life. The image quality and editing was perfect. Would highly recommend and love to work with him again.
