Sergey Gorshkov was born in a faraway Siberian village. My personal project is Russia’s Wildlife.

It was in Kamchatka where I started to shoot my first project about bears. Bears are still my passion and my trademark. I’m endlessly thankful to Kamchatka for its lessons of professionalism and love of nature. Right now I am thinking about an ambitious project – the “conquest” of the Russian Arctic. I want to portray this ascetic and beautiful world the whole way – from the East to the West. I was able to work a lot on the Chukchi Peninsula, the Wrangell Island, the Taymyr Peninsula, the Putorana Plateau, and Franz Josef Land, and I hope the work was fruitful. 

My plans are – Novaya Zemlya.” Right now, Sergey is shooting the rarest big wild cats in the world – the Siberian tiger and the Amur leopard.  Sergey Gorshkov is the founding member of the Russian Union of Wildlife Photographers. Sergey has participated in the BBC projects “Frozen Planet” and “Planets Earth 2”.
