Dorina Bata

" I’ve loved photography for as long as I can remember. As a child, I was fascinated by old black-and-white photos of my great-grandparents—faces I never met but often heard stories about. My first camera as a teenager sparked a passion I didn’t yet realize, and on Valentine’s Day 2023 I gifted myself an Olympus Pen E-P7, which truly sealed my love for photography. Compact, stylish, and perfect for travel, it became my ideal companion. I enjoy exploring new places, noticing small details, and capturing emotions along the way—sharing them through “Dorina’s eyes,” my way of seeing the world behind the lens."
