Pulitzer Prize-winning international photojournalist with over 15 years of experience in covering breaking news, wars and conflicts, sports and politics.
Since starting his freelance career in 2012, he has worked mainly for the New York Times and other publications, including Paris Match, Volkskrant, Stern, and Figaro Magazine. His main objectives were developing a unique style and approach and developing visual storytelling techniques during that time.
In 2016 he was part of the New York Times team that won a Pulitzer Prize for their coverage of the arrival of more than one million refugees from the Middle East and Africa to Western and Northern Europe. Sergey received the Robert Capa Gold Medal Award and three World Press Photo awards, among other awards.
According to James Nachtwey, "Sergey's visual perception operates at a very high level. He has the ability to organize what he perceives in a compelling, complex manner using the full range of photographic vocabulary with great mastery."
