For those who want to capture moments in an important place.

I was thrilled to capture photos for the talented trumpet player from UIUC! And it was even more wonderful to see my photographs in action - on the musician’s website and in his social networks. I guess, nothing pleases a photographer more than seeing own work used in client’s life.

What I wanted to point out here is don’t be afraid to take the chance to have a photo shoot in places that will remind you of important periods of life and people! After all, you will get not just good photos, but also a beautiful visual memory about something valuable. You’ll get a chance to dine into those memories and feel it fully.

We can’t care less about the weather as long as the place is indoors. Which is clearly a plus in the coming month or two.

Contact me in any convenient way (DM, website link or WhatsApp in the profile header). I am happy help make your wishes come true!

Indoor or outdoor, your choice!

If you're not sure about spending time in the chill or have a sensitive companion joining a photo session, no worries!

We've got options. A big thanks to one of my wonderful clients ❤️, I've discovered a cozy studio in Champaign we can rent (it’s NOT that studio in the pictures).

Or, for an epic adventure, we can head to Chicago/Indianapolis for its variety of studios of different types. From cute and cozy, to classic, trendy and bright, or even dark and moody, there's a studio to match every style and mood.

And, of course, there's nothing quite like a warm, homey photoshoot with your whole family (or only partner, child, pet, whatever feels right for you).
And stay tuned for one more exciting option, I tell you soon!

Questions or ready to book? You know how to reach me, right?

Guys! Don’t miss the moment!

Fall is one of the most beautiful time of the year and you still have a chance to catch it. You can finally put on a beautiful coat and look more mysterious or moody than in the summer, of you want.
It’s definitely the most bright and colourful time to get your photos of any kind. Personal, family, proposal, graduation (btw, as I know it’s a great time to rent a robe) photo sessions are the most popular right now.

I have a few really free weekends ahead, so I can organize for you both a photo session in a city or out of town. Seize the moment and secure your photo shoot now – just drop me a DM to book your session!

Exploring various photography styles

I haven't displayed all the photography styles I capture here, it's quite a handful for one account due to my diverse interests. However, as time has passed, I've realised that pet portraits have become a noticeable part in my regular shoots.

For now, I'm avoiding picking a single photography specialization. I’m still way too curious to capture and explore deeper different things, and I hope you'll join me in this exciting journey without feeling lost in this nice chaos! 😄

Small reminder - my photography offer for National Dog Day remains open and relevant. To explore details check out my highlights.

P.S. This handsome boy in the photo is my wonderful doggy guest and model ❤️

The hidden gem - Memorial Stadium Colonnades!

Looking for the perfect spot to capture your graduation (or any personal) portraits? Look no further! The Memorial Stadium Colonnades offer a stunning backdrop that is both beautiful and unique. Plus, it's almost like your own private haven – never overcrowded, unlike the noisy main quad.

The mood of the shots taken here can vary greatly, offering endless possibilities. While I can't showcase it with my own photos just yet, trust me, this place is incredibly versatile, even if it may not seem so at first glance.

Don't miss out on this hidden gem for your memorable photoshoot! Book your session today and let's capture the magic at the Memorial Stadium Colonnades.

Diversity in Academia!

It's so interesting to see graduates from different majors coming together in one place!
Recently, I had the amazing opportunity to capture photos of graduates at various major buildings, and it was such a cool experience. Exploring new locations during my photography journey has been incredibly exciting, and I love discovering the unique spaces that each major offers.

From engineering to arts, business to sciences, it's inspiring to witness the diverse paths and passions of these graduates coming together to celebrate this important milestone.

I feel grateful to have been a part of capturing these memorable moments and celebrating the incredible achievements of these graduates. Congratulations to each and every one of you!

Stay tuned as I continue to share more.

Introducing wonderful Individuals!

Hey everyone! I am absolutely thrilled to share with you the joy-filled photos of these amazing individuals! Each one is unique and brings their own special flair to the photoshoot. From the sassy and confident to the funny and gallant, I am constantly amazed by the diversity and individuality of each person.

It was an honor for me to be part of this particular photoshoot as a second photographer, working alongside the talented .raws

Unleashing the fun: my favourite champagne shots of this season!

Get ready for the most exciting and unpredictable part of the photo shoot – unforgettable moments with champagne!

No one can predict how clients will behave, how the wind will blow, or the spray that will dance in the air. But you know what? That's the beauty of it all! It's the element of surprise that makes it such a fantastic idea to try.

So, let's raise a glass and toast to the most fun and unforgettable moments that happen when champagne joins the photo session!

Champagne on the photo session.

First of all, let me tell you, it's an absolutely fantastic idea! Get ready for some lively and energetic photos.

Now, here's something to keep in mind - you're going to get a little sticky and be covered in champagne, but guess what? It's totally okay!

That's why we save the champagne for the last part of the photoshoot, ensuring we capture all the classy shots before embracing the playful and slightly messy part.

In this post, you can see the calm side of the champagne shots. The next post will showcase the lively and active moments. Get ready for more excitement!

Stay tuned for the upcoming posts 🧡
