kostas maros is a swiss photographer who currently lives in Basel and works in Switzerland and worldwide for international editorial-, corporate- and advertising clients.
He grew up bilingual, speaking german and french. After school he studied law at a swiss university and worked for several years as a lawyer. Realizing that law was not what he wanted to pursue he went travelling and started to work as an intern for a newspaper. Meanwhile his interest for photography grew and it became his main occupation.
