I’ve loved photography my whole life! For me, photography isn’t just a job, it’s a passion. I believe everyone is unique and beautiful in their own way, so I do everything I can to capture that beauty in photographs.

F A Q
I answer your questions
No matter how simple or trivial a question may seem to you, it’s best to clarify and get an answer. Be bold, friends.
How long does the shoot take?
The duration of the shoot is discussed with you in advance. Everything depends on the concept, the number of images, the number of guests, and many other factors. My experience allows me to plan the process optimally. You won’t overpay beyond what is necessary. Studio portrait sessions start from 1 hour. Two hours is more comfortable (especially for introverted subjects). A love story walk optimally takes from 1.5 to 3 hours. I shoot weddings in three options:
- Walk and the registry office
- Walk, the registry office, and the first dance.
- Full day, from getting ready to the fireworks display!
What is my involvement before filming?
Not every subject has experience with photoshoots, posing, and putting together an image. Therefore, my task is to explain everything in detail and in an accessible way. First, I listen to all your wishes regarding the shoot. Based on these inputs, I prepare a visual selection of poses, locations, and images. With such a cheat sheet, the whole process is greatly simplified. I help choose a studio. Knowing the style of the photo shoot, I will suggest which studio will be the most successful in realizing it. During the photo shoot, I will play your favorite music, keep up a conversation on a topic of interest, and show you the shots on the camera. This way, you will become involved in the process and realize that this is not work, but pleasure.
Am I ready to work in another city?
Of course I’m ready. I have this experience and am ready to expand it to your cities and locations.
How do I submit photos and when do I have to submit them?
I share photos through galleries on my website. It’s beautiful, convenient, and high-quality. The photographer’s preparation time.
- Portrait photography from 2 to 10 days
- Promenade and ceremony at the registry office up to 10 days
- Full wedding day from 10 to 30 days
How to choose a wedding photographer?
The main rule when choosing a photographer: you should like them as a professional and as a person.
You will share such an important day in your life with them, entrusting them with emotions, feelings, and, most importantly, future memories.
WHERE TO START?
First, decide what you want from your wedding photos, how you envision them, and how many hours you need a photographer on your wedding day. This will determine your requirements for a professional. The clearer you are about the photographer’s role at your wedding, the better the result will be—it will be easier for the photographer to work with you, and you will enjoy looking at your family album afterwards.
Decide what kind of wedding photography you want—classic or more experimental? Determine your preferred photography style and look for a photographer who specializes in that style. Choose a location in advance—it should complement the overall concept of the event and be conveniently located—avoid spending too much time traveling on your wedding day.
Remember that it is better to visit fewer places and take more memorable photos than to try to do everything and only end up tired.
And, of course, pay attention not only to the photographer’s portfolio, but also to how much you like them as a person. You should be pleased and comfortable working with the photographer; then you won’t feel constrained, and the photos will turn out natural and lively. It’s great if you understand each other instantly.
