Biography
Sven Kristian is a Namibian photographer based in Cape Town, South Africa.
After serving a 10 year sentence in the hotel management industry, while abroad in the UK, he managed to release himself and make a move back to Cape Town where he has been nurturing his passion for image making. After a 2 year diploma course in the field, he went full tilt into the freelancing game in 2013 and has not looked back since.
Sven has focussed on finding and maintaining a creative voice throughout his work, while still evolving with the times, always on the hunt for a new and exciting perspective that he can call his own.
