Hendro Soetrisno - A Visual Storyteller
Bringing Imagination to Life
My name is Hendro Soetrisno, and I am an artist who breathes life into my creations through a blend of fine artistry and digital mastery. While my photography serves as a cornerstone of my portfolio, I am equally adept as a graphic designer and digital artist, infusing each piece with a unique vision and meticulous craftsmanship.
I consider myself not just a photographer, but a visual storyteller and fine artist, adept at turning the ordinary into the extraordinary. Every image I create is meticulously crafted by hand, devoid of any reliance on automatic processes, allowing me to imbue each work with a distinct sense of artistry and emotion.
Drawing inspiration from the enchantment found in children's books and the mesmerizing allure of animations, I am constantly exploring the power of colors and shapes to convey emotions and tell stories. Whether through photography, graphic design, or digital art, I am committed to sparking curiosity and igniting the imagination, inviting viewers to embark on their own personal journey of interpretation.
My creative process is marked by handcrafted precision and attention to detail, whether I'm behind the lens or at the digital drawing board. From envisioning the concept to meticulously refining every aspect of the image during post-production, I strive to capture the essence of my subjects in a way that transcends mere representation.
Through my art, I aim to transport viewers to extraordinary worlds, where the limits of imagination and reality blur. Each piece is a testament to my dedication to pushing the boundaries of creativity and sharing my unique perspective with the world.
In my artistic journey, I invest my heart and soul into each step of the creative process, whether I'm behind the lens capturing a moment, crafting intricate digital designs, or bringing vivid visual narratives to life through digital artistry. My ultimate goal is to inspire and awaken a sense of wonder in others, encouraging them to see the world through fresh eyes and embrace the beauty that surrounds us all, regardless of the medium I work with.
Professional Journey from Awards Winning Traditional Photography to NFTs
I've been fortunate to receive recognition for my work, including prestigious titles like Master of Photography from Professional Photographers of America (PPA), Master Photographer in Fine Art - Accredited in Fine Art Nature from Master Photographers International (MPI), and Master of Wedding and Portrait Photographers International (WPPI). Representing the United States in the World Photographic Cup was a true honor, where I was humbled to bring home both the gold medal and the Best of Nations award.
In addition to my photography accolades, I’ve won over 150 awards from esteemed professional organizations worldwide, such as PPA, WPPI, MPI, and the Australian Institute of Professional Photography (AIPP). These accolades, along with several Photographer of the Year titles, serve as reminders of the incredible support and encouragement I’ve received from the artistic community.
My love for photography began with a simple medium format film camera, leading me on a path of exploration and growth. My experience spans various genres, including automotive, products, portraits, beauty, weddings, architecture, real estate, lifestyle, food, cityscape, landscapes, nature, and wildlife. This diverse experience eventually led me to find my true passion in fine art photography. Additionally, I have expanded my creative horizons into graphic design and digital art, weaving together diverse influences and techniques into a rich tapestry of visual storytelling.
In addition to my artistic pursuits, I’ve also delved into the world of NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens). In January 2022, I launched my first NFT series titled “VIVID,” which received an overwhelming response and sold out within a month.
Beyond my individual endeavors, I’ve had the pleasure of founding and leading the collective Artists United. Our first project, “TOGETHER,” was a groundbreaking endeavor in the world of NFT photography, curated by respected collector, AlphaTrilogy, with a buy-back guarantee, and it sold out in just three days. These experiences have taught me the importance of collaboration and community in the artistic process.
While my journey has been filled with achievements, I remain deeply grateful for the opportunities to learn and grow as both an artist and a person. At the core of it all, my goal is simple: to capture and create moments of beauty across various mediums and share them with the world. Thank you for joining me on this journey, and I hope my work brings you as much joy as it brings me.
