Sergey Areshev (b.1966 in Tbilisi, Georgia) is a retired army colonel and sports photographer based in Moscow, Russia. Photography has always been a fascinating subject to him. After leaving the army in 2012, he has been working as a freelance photographer focusing on sports for some European agencies such as East News, Panoramic, and PhotoXpress, but Sergey mostly prefers the feature side of sports photography. He tries to photograph in a special way, to create something more than just documentary reportage images, to make sports photography a little more artistic. Sergey’s work has been recognized in several photographic competitions. He is a member of the Russian Union of Art Photographers and was selected as a member of judging panel of the 35awards in 2018.
