My name is Miro Kuzmanovic. I was born in Austria and raised in former Yugoslavia, but I'm now based in Austria, where I've been living since my immigration in 1992. I am a photographer primarily working in storytelling and portrait, focusing on real people and stories. I guess I'd consider my style of photography documentary. However, I photograph many different things for personal or commercial work.
