Light Made Magic is the collaborative practice of married photographers Livia Belkova Krupar (Slovakia) and Tim Krupar (USA), based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Working primarily through street photography, we are drawn to light, atmosphere, gesture, and the quiet tension of everyday moments.

Alongside our photographic work, we create self-published zines, handmade artist books, photo prints, and an evolving curated bookshelf of photobooks from our personal collection and ongoing finds.
