Biography
Peter’s interest in photography began at the age of six when her father gave her a camera and taught her how to develop negative film in the family kitchen.[1][3] After earning a master's degree in photography at the National Academy of Theatre and Film Arts in Sofia[4], she accepted an internship at the Magnum Photos Agency in Paris, where she discovered a passion for the work of street photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson. She has often cited the French photographer's concept of the decisive moment as having a significant influence on her own work[5] and in seeking out ideal light and shadow conditions.
In 2001, Peter immigrated to Canada and was hired by VXR Studios to photograph luxury hotels for Expedia.[6] She began photographing contemporary architectural buildings by Vancouver firms, eventually forming her own photography studio in 2005[7]. Her images have appeared in numerous publications worldwide including Azure (design magazine)|Azure, Architectural Record, Dwell (magazine)|Dwell, Dezeen, and The New York Times|New York Times.
