about

Yulia Smishkewych Rey has over 25 years of experience in analog photography, cinematography, television, and corporate communications. She holds a B.A. in Communications from Kean University (Union, NJ, 2016), an Associates of Arts in Film Studies from Union County College (Cranford, NJ, 2014) and two diplomas from the New York Film Academy (New York, NY) in cinematography (2006) and digital filmmaking (2007), and has worked with reknowned photographers like Donald Lokuta, among others, as well as for production houses like Zeitun Films (Felipe Lage).

Yulia’s passion for analog photography began at the age of 12 when her older brother built a darkroom in their basement and introduced her to the fine art of photography. Since then, she has spent countless nights in darkrooms across the Atlantic, mastering the medium, recreating forgotten processes, and even developing new ones.

At present, she is the owner of “Fotofilme Analogik“, an analog photo lab that process all commercially available films and small-gauge cinema films.
