For 18 years, Anna has lived and worked in Ireland, in the picturesque town of Clonakilty, West Cork, where she runs her photography studio. She specializes in wedding, portrait, and commercial photography, but each genre takes on a uniquely emotional dimension through her lens. These are not just photos – they are stories captured in light and shadow, in glances and gestures.
The year 2024 was an exceptional one for Anna. She organized as many as five solo photography exhibitions, including one held in Bytom, Poland, highlighting her ties to her homeland and growing recognition beyond Ireland’s borders. Her photographs have also been exhibited in notable venues such as Clonakilty Library, Bantry Library, and Cork County Council Library HQ, receiving praise from art connoisseurs and casual visitors.
Anna Groniecka is more than just an artist. She is also an entrepreneur who combines her creative work with commercial photography. By collaborating with companies and private clients, she helps shape brand identities and builds meaningful visual connections. Her photos often become part of a brand's visual narrative, adding class, authenticity, and emotional depth.
Her dedication doesn’t end with photography. Anna actively supports local initiatives, empowers communities, promotes culture, and uplifts women’s business organizations – treating her art as a dialogue, support, and inspiration tool.
In a world flooded with fleeting images and instant snapshots, Anna Groniecka reminds us that actual photography is the kind that stays with us. Her work doesn’t just show reality – it interprets it, enriches it, and preserves it in a way that moves and inspires reflection.
That’s why her nomination in the Artistic Star category is more than just an award – it’s a well-deserved recognition for someone who creates from the heart, thinks in images, and makes the world a little more beautiful through every frame she captures.
