I am shooting portraits

From a young age, creativity was already a part of my life. I always had the dream of doing something with drawing and later took courses and worked at advertising agencies. This ultimately led to the founding of Moments. During my travels, I was always searching for beautiful moments to capture with my camera.

One day I bought a good photo camera to make product photos, but I also decided to take pictures of my daughters. I discovered my love for portraits and practiced a lot. When I posted my photos on Instagram, I quickly received requests for portrait photos. And so began my adventure as I am shooting portraits and I enjoy every day of my work!

I have specialized in creating unique and warm portrait photos. I consider each photo as a work of art in itself and give you a unique view of yourself or your children through my lens. My photos are characterized by the dark background and eyes that really stand out from the photo.

I spend a lot of time editing your photos and ensure that you feel comfortable during the shoot so that we can create the most beautiful photos together.

This photo was taken in my natural light studio, and I used special Lightroom edits to highlight the eyes, shadows, and lines on the face.

Most of the work I submit to the Portrait Photo Awards is personal projects aimed at experimentation. This photo of Nina is one such example where I tried to make the eyes speak more through the use of flowers.

When a special child enters my studio, my mission is to make them feel so comfortable that they look straight into my camera. It's always challenging and surprising to see how little children react and gaze at the camera.

This beautiful strong girl was perfect to use for some new photo experiment, utilizing a curtain, red hair, and playing with some extra wind resulted in this outcome. All my photos are made by daylight.

This photo is already my favorite image of the year, thanks to the perfect combination of contrast, the girl, the fluttering strands of hair, and her skin tone. Everything seems to blend perfectly, and this photo exudes an extraordinary aura. All rights reserved.
