Hello!

You’re probably my new regular client already! I bet you want to know how I work and under what conditions.
I’ve put together answers to the most common questions here, but if you still have any, just write to me — maybe I’ll add your question to the list too!

What is your work experience?

I have over 15 years of professional experience in photography. Over the years, I have worked on a wide range of projects, including events, weddings, portraits, and reportage photography. This extensive experience allows me to understand client needs and deliver high-quality results consistently.

When can I expect to get the photos?

For event reportage, photos are ready within 3–5 days. For weddings, up to 30 days. The timing depends on the number of photos, workload, and complexity of editing. Other types of shoots typically take 3–7 days.

I strive to deliver photos as quickly as possible and consider fast delivery one of my key advantages.

If needed, I can send a few finished photos on the day of the shoot, or even unprocessed images directly from the camera during the event.

How are the photos delivered to clients?

Photos are delivered via a beautiful and user-friendly web gallery, accessible on any device at any time. You can easily share the gallery link with your friends and download photos in full or reduced size.

The gallery links are private and can be password-protected. It’s also possible to set passwords on individual folders within the gallery.

Printing services and photo book design are available — simply “like” the photos you want to include.

How long are the photos stored on the website?

Photos are stored on the website for up to 6 months.

Do you edit the photos?

All photos undergo color correction, exposure adjustment, cropping, and light portrait retouching. Advanced retouching is available for an additional fee, and I work with professional retouchers.

I reserve the right to select the final photos unless otherwise agreed.

Please note, I do not smooth clothing, alter makeup, or change hairstyles in editing.

How many photos do you deliver per hour of shooting?

Typically, I deliver at least 60 photos per hour of shooting. The exact number can vary depending on the type of event, the pace of the day, and the shooting style. For example, in fast-paced events, you might receive more photos, while in more formal or staged shoots, the number might be slightly lower but with higher quality and variety.

If you have specific expectations about the number of photos, feel free to discuss them with me beforehand — I’m happy to accommodate your needs.

If the location is dark, do you bring your own lighting?

I have 5 portable flashes with stands, an off-camera flash with softbox, plus professional studio and continuous RGB lights.
I bring the right gear depending on the shoot’s needs.

What about payment?

To secure your date, a deposit is required.
The remaining balance is paid on the day of the shoot.
If the shoot involves travel outside the city or moving between multiple locations, additional travel fees will apply.

I’m difficult and don’t always appreciate the work of a photographer, but I need your services. What should I do?

No way, work with other photographers.

Do you work with a team?

I collaborate with videographers, makeup artists, retouchers, and event organizers — including those who specialize in children’s parties.
Based on your budget, I can recommend trusted professionals to help make your event perfect.

Do you shoot abroad?

Yes, I photograph both locally and internationally. I’m available to travel across Europe and beyond for weddings, events, and other shoots. Travel expenses are agreed upon in advance.

Is it possible to do an anonymous photoshoot?

Yes, just let me know in advance — your privacy matters.

Photo printing? Photo albums?

Yes! I print photos in any format — photo albums, canvas prints, foam board, plastic.

What else is important to know?

If you book a shoot with me, it means you trust me.

I value my reputation highly. My goal is not just a one-time job, but to build a long-term, ongoing collaboration with each client.
