She had her debut exhibition in ZPAF Gallery, Kraków 2002, and the same year she received a scholarship for the arts from the Kraków city government. In 2003 she became a member of the Union of Polish Art Photographers, and is now a member of the board in Kraków.
In 2003 Magda began her career as a freelance photographer working with Wysokie Obcasy, the weekly magazine edition of the national newspaper, Gazeta Wyborcza, a relationship that continues to today. Her specialty is interior photography, and her editorial clients include Dobre Wnętrze, Dom & Wnętrze, M jak Mieszkanie, amongst many others.
