Last year we had a collaboration with model Anastasia Vakula and a talented hair& makeup artist Alisa Venglinskaya and created this seductive boudoir video at my studio. It was inspired by a perfume commercial starring Angelina Jolie. Enjoy and let me what you think in a comment on YouTube! “Boudoir” pronounced as /bo͞oˌdwär/ and translated from French literally means “a woman’s bedroom or a private dressing room”. So it means something very intimate, secretions and not supposed to be seen […]

When I photograph a wedding my favorite part is the bridal portraits when she just stepped into her gown and started to realize that it’s all finally happening. That’s why I always excited about styled bridal photo shoots. This particular one was for a non-profit bridal boutique “Fairytale Brides on a Shoestring”. I met […]

I probably mentioned before that I love weddings in general. But, as a photographer, my favorite part of a wedding day is when I get to stay with the couple and take some romantic photos of just the two of them. Big weddings are sometimes unpredicted, and often the bride and groom photo shoots are rushed. When I truly can spend enough time with the couple is if they have have a very intimate wedding, like courthouse wedding or elopement. […]
