    Slovenian Armed Forces Orchestra, Cankarjev dom

    Celebrating their 30th anniversary with a special concert at Gallus hall, the Slovenian Armed Forces Orchestra were joined by the president Nataša Pirc Musar herself. From ceremonial overtures and military motifs through jazz and big band to Ravel’s Bolero, important guests included Vlado Kreslin, Tomi Meglič, Raiven and Gregor Ravnik. A night to remember.

  • Platno, Cankarjev dom

    Platno, Cankarjev dom

    My first opera by Nina Šenk, performed by the ensemble of Slovensko komorno glasbeno gledališče, presented at Cankarjev dom. Four protagonists, four voices, one moment of existence. A story not of love, but of longing. Quite a challenge, but I’m glad I got the chance. Light design by Klemen Kuhar.

  • SOS: V njeni koži

    SOS: V njeni koži

    I volunteered to cover an event for SOS: Društvo SOS telefon, a Slovenian organisation supporting women and children who are victims of violence. The evening marked the launch of their national campaign Če bi stene govorile – opening a conversation about violence against women, children, and the systemic failures survivors face when seeking help. The…

    :Projekt – School of Beer: Hoppy

    The :Projekt crew at it again – next edition of the School of Beer series, co-organised with Tekoče zadeve and Andrej Colarič. This time the focus was on hoppy beers. These guys really know how to teach you something new and put together an evening to remember. A special guest too – the owner of…

    :Projekt – School of Beer: Belgian, English and wheat

    The :Projekt crew – yes, I know the owner – invited me to photograph their School of Beer series, co-organised with Tekoče zadeve and Andrej Colarič. I couldn’t make every edition, but this was the first one. The theme? Belgian, English, and wheat beers. Don’t ask me for tasting notes; it’s been two months since…

  • Bevog X Ment, Kino Šiška

    Bevog X Ment, Kino Šiška

    Sometimes I go to a festival just to photograph beer and friends. Not necessarily in that order. My first time at Ment – quite a memorable one, despite the security giving me grief about my cameras. It’s been a while… Cheers to Rok and Tim for coming along and making my job easier.

    S01E16 – Anything But Therapy

    Instead of running, I took the extra time to make some Instagram posts, edit old videos and publish photos. I also made a list. Promised last week, here’s Nine Circles Of Hell (concert edition).

    S01E15 – Anything But Therapy

    Every episode, there is a vicious battle between just ranting away and howling at the moon, or just reminiscing over the past week and finding those bright spots. Some weeks, they are really hard to find.

    S01E14 – Anything But Therapy

    The photo exhibition last week was a major success. A short trip to Denmark followed – delicious and brief. Landed in Zagreb to 20+ degrees, only to wake up to a snowstorm the next morning. Summer tyres really enjoyed that. My calf decided to act up after a slow 4k treadmill run, while the Belgrade…

    S01E13 – Anything But Therapy

    It’s funny how a short break from your favourite band can put a refreshed perspective on what it actually means to you, and boy, did I miss it. Almost three months without a gig, coming back to Maribor for a 3-hour Siddharta special. Explosive! My inner trigger-happy child went ballistic with a record-breaking 9017 photos…

    S01E12 – Anything But Therapy

    Insert excuse here. With overly optimistic goals, a bit much on my plate and spending too much time on Instagram, it was a week filled with adulting and admin. Feeling unaccomplished and barely catching enough sleep.

    S01E11 – Anything But Therapy

    With every good intention of sending this episode on time, one simple phone call – and my inability to say no to a new experience – means I’m once again cutting into my sleep time. I’m trying hard not to make it a habit. We’ll see next week.
