in the USSR, Sasha Paskanoi left his homeland
for the first time in the early 90’s, spending
the decade in travels between Western and Eastern
Europe. Eventually, at the dawn of the new millennia,
he made his choice and decided to stay in Paris,
France, where he finished his study and began
his career as a photographer.

entrepreneurs and politicians, such as Pierre
Cardin, Paul Smith, Maya Plessetskaya, Nicolas
Hulot, Raymond Barre and Russians Rock Stars like
Agata Kristi, Mumiy Troll, U-Piter, V. Butusov,
Zemfira.
His reputation
quickly built up, and led him to work with world-class
photographers, among them Vincent de Marly and
Nicolas Sautiez, and many make up stylists or
image makers.
Some French
and Russian magazines, such as Fashion Collection,
France, TV Park, Kino Park, COTE, Pensée
Russe, NRG, much appreciated his work and decided
to cooperate with him on a regular basis.
