Warm welcome to my photography page!
I am a psychologist and photographer from Albania currently based in Germany. Having lived in Albania, Italy, Kosovo, and Germany, and being an avid traveler, I have had the opportunity to experience a wide range of cultures, which has shaped my perspective and artistic vision as a photographer. With influences as diverse as psychology and photography, I take genuine interest in humans portraying them in their everydayness. Whether working with my students or clients or behind the lens, I am dedicated to understanding and portraying the complexities of the human mind and experience.
Elisa Berdica was born in Shkoder, Albania. After studying in Albania and Italy and after completing her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, she has been working as a lecturer at the University of Mannheim, Germany and is active as mental health consultant. Moreover she has been working as a freelance photographer for seven years with focus on street and documentary photography.
