FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY

LONDON TO BRIGHTON AND BEYOND

FAMILY PHOTOSHOOT

"PHOTOS FEEL SO ALIVE AND CINEMATIC AT THE SAME TIME" 

I keep rewatching the photos, they’re just so awesome! They feel so alive and cinematic at the same time, I'm so happy!!! Lesha is thrilled and keeps sending his favorite shots to his friends, and the grandmothers are asking us to make little calendars for next year. Thank you so much, it’s just amazing! And the day itself was fantastic too. When we were looking at the photos, Katya said, 'I want to meet up with Anya again' :) It immediately brought back memories of that day and of you. She truly enjoyed herself, and we had a wonderful time too!

MY STYLE

is a combination of documentary & cinematic storytelling. I focus a lot on the details, the feeling and the motion, embracing the imperfect, messy moments and bringing out the realness and magic of those. I give you a comfortable, safe space to be yourself.

 

For me, a good photo is not just a still picture of a moment in time: it’s a spark that lights up your feelings. The images I create serve as reminders of how you lived and loved, in the moment. How the wind blew through your hair, the smile that made your face ache, the hugs that felt like home, the countless goosebumps and nose kisses. I want to bring out your inner world, and document your story.

  • Where are you based?
    I'm currently based in West Sussex between Brighton and London, and consider both my main areas. I'm able to travel anywhere in the UK and beyond.
  • What is your photography style?
    Best words describing my style are: feeling, storytelling, documentary, nostalgic, cinematic, romantic. My photos are warm, keeping natural skin tones and colours.
  • Can I request specific editing styles or colour preferences for our photos?
    My photography and editing style are well reflected in my previous works, so please be sure to check those out in my portfolio. If it doesn't suit what you have in mind, I would recommend finding a photographer who is better specialised in your desired style.
  • Do you use photoshop in your editing process?
    Only minimally - to remove skin imperfections or some exterior obstacles which ruin the vibe. Please do keep in mind that I will never photoshop your features or add special effects in my works, as that doesn't reflect my values.
  • Do you work with same-sex couples?
    Totally! I believe in love.
  • How many photos will I receive?
    Full day weddings (from 8h) - you will receive between 600-1000 photos depending on the number of coverage hours and on how busy the day is. Elopements and micro-weddings (4 hours) - about 200-400. Other shoots (up to two hours) - it will be between 70-120 photos, also depending on the length of our session. All photos go through the colour correction process.
  • When will the photos be ready?
    The photos will be ready within 6 weeks after our shoot day. I take great care of each image I take, all of them are precious to me, and I promise the waiting time is worth it. However, there is an option to add a rush turnaround to your package, if you would like to receive your photos within only one week.
  • How will I receive my photos?
    Once your photos are ready, you will receive a link to your private, password-protected online gallery. There is an integrated shop which allows to order the photos you love most right away. You will also get an automatic discount with the print vendors through your gallery. You will be able to choose multiple options - from framed prints to full albums.
  • Are there additional fees for travel or destination weddings and shoots?
    Travel under 1.5h is included (I'm based in West Sussex, so London and Brighton areas are generally within this zone). Anything longer than that is an additional fee added to the invoice. If our shoot starts earlier than 10 am outside of London/Brighton, accommodation expenses will be added to the invoice.
  • How can I secure my booking?
    Once we decide to work together, I will send you the contract and the invoice with a retainer that equals 30% of the full cost. Once the payment is completed, your date is booked in my calendar!
  • What is the cancellation policy?
    If you have to cancel our session, the retainer is non-refundable. We are able to move the date once without losing the retainer (all terms will be outlined in our contract).
  • What happens if it rains on our scheduled outdoor shoot?
    If you are comfortable to go ahead, we will make the most out of it! I love rainy shoots, those are so fun and unique. Only exceptions will be yellow and red storm warnings - in those cases, we will find a new date for our session (obviously, doesn't apply to weddings).
  • Can I have the RAW files?
    No, RAW files are not provided.
