I am often asked what is needed for an easy and relaxed photo shoot. Just a smidgen! A positive attitude, good mood, happy smiles and a willingness to fool around, not paying attention to others. Do not be afraid to be yourself, do not be afraid to show your emotions and, most importantly, forget about the camera. Have fun, laugh, run, jump, let a child in yourself to fetch away.

Prague Castle and its surroundings are one of the most picturesque places in Prague. You can wander around here all day long, losing yourself in the winding streets of Hradcany. Come at dawn or sunset and freeze for a minute from the majesty of St. Vitus Cathedral. And it is impossible to describe what magnificent panoramas of the city open from this point. You only need to see them with your own eyes.

For many people a photo session is a frightening process that makes them nervous and induces stress. They are afraid it would be uneasy, unintelligent, uninteresting, unbeautiful, uncomfortable, and all sorts of other “un-”. It’s worth noting that you are frightened of this uncertainty absolutely in vain. In this article I would like to give some advice of how to pose during a photo session, if you are an ordinary person without rich modeling experience.

This story is about our wonderful walk with breathtakingly beautiful Ulyana. About amazing sun light in her hair. I love the sunset photo-shoots no less than the sunrise’s ones. And may be even more, when the light is softer and the shadows are incredible. Is was a warm September evening. Usually the sun does not spoil us with its frequent appearance at this time of year, but not that day! We were very lucky and Ulyana bathed blissfully in it’s rays. A simple girl from Russian small city became a super-star in that evening – everybody wanted to take a picture of her. Men curled their necks, and women sighed enviously.

Such weddings is an incredible pleasure for me as a photographer. They leave a pleasant aftertaste and elation for many days ahead.

Winter photo shoots have their charm. Especially if you are lucky enough and Prague will delight you with snow. And, you know what’s awesome? Snow in Prague is very cinematic. You can see that type of snow in Hollywood Christmas movies. It, as is sung in a famous song, spins and flies,and practically doesn’t land on the ground. And you are roaming around this magical winter fairy tale, drinking hot wine, snacking with trdlo (a Czech sweet bun) and can’t believe that it’s real.

Every year more and more couples come to Prague to arrange pre-wedding photo shoot here. For some people Prague is one of the several cities in pre-wedding photo marathon from where they plan to bring a piece of memories, while others come specially only to the Czech Republic, enchanted by beautiful city views in photos of their friends.

Ah, Italy! It is a heavenly, colourful, bright, rich, warm, tasty and so much inimitable and versatile country. The list of laudatory epithets may be endless.

Christmas in Prague is a fairy tale that came true, it’s smell of cinnamon and gingerbread cookies, it’s a gentle jingling of a bell, it’s a time of bright lights, of kids laughter and of an enchanting feeling that magic is prevailing everywhere.

Italy is perhaps my most favorite European country. An absolutely unique atmosphere reigns there. In comparison to calm and hasteless Czech Republic kindly and open-minded people live there. So when the awesome guys Ksenia and Gleb invited me to shoot their wedding in Rome, I didn’t ponder too much :-)

Looking at the colorful pictures of Indian weddings in the Internet, I have long dreamt not so much to admire this action personally, as to photograph.

You are feeling dizzy from all these amazing pink cherry trees, divine aromas in the air, snow-white apple trees and stunning chestnut avenues, the smell of which the head is spinning … Even experienced travellers can fall in love with all this beauty, combined with the incomparable Prague’s architecture.

What a great pleasure to shoot such an incredible couple – infinitely loving each other, happy, artistic, spreading positive energy around them. I’m often told that there is a marvelous light in my photos. The only secret is that it is not only sunlight but also the inner glow of the people I photograph. The main task of the photographer is to open a shell, in which each of us is hiding, and let this shine to escape.

Vrtba Garden, perhaps, is the most popular location for the wedding ceremony in Prague. May be it is inferior only to the Old town hall in terms of number of weddings hold there.

The garden opens arms to cozy weddings for two and with the same enthusiasm accepts celebrations with a hundred of guests.
