Hopefully you will find answers to your questions here

I am based in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire. 20 mins aways from central London.

Yes. Please get in touch about your wedding plan!

(If your wedding is in Hungary, I won’t count it as a trip, and I don’t calculate flight expenses. Just the drive from Budapest, or Lake Balaton, and accommodation if it’s further than 1 hour of drive from these spots.)

I see wedding photography as a documentary type of art in its essence and so being spontaneous and paying full attention to what happens is what matters the most. My goal is to capture something authentic. I am drawn by ideas that are rather simple and faithful to the moment. I document the organic flow of the day, giving it back how I see it. I am not against any gently posed moments, if they come from a natural situation. I’m also covering group photos.

 

My most inspiring photographers are Josef Koudelka, Sebastiao Salgado and Saul Leiter.

I personally edit every image that I select to ensure high quality. I don’t use any AI system for selection or grading, and I don’t do photoshop. I pick the best ones, adjust composition if needed and color grade them. I like to think about the photos and spend time on deciding which are the truly essential ones, what do they capture about the people, and why they are working well. I try to bring the best out of them through the edit. As a result of the selection and editing, the final collection tells a story.

Your full gallery is available to view online within 6 weeks of your wedding day. I like to edit my photos with great care. In case of a micro weddings or a creative sessions the editing time is 3 weeks.

We can discuss this based on your requirements. I normally like to prioritize quality over quantity.

Delivery: You can view and download the images from a secured online gallery protected with password with a custom link. Remember that you will not receive original (RAW) files, but my edited jpeg images which are great quality renders.

When we are signing the contract, you are required to pay a 30% deposit. The rest of the payment is due on my arrival to the wedding. I only accept bank
transfers.

For weddings, once you’ve put down a deposit, it’s non-refundable, but you can use it for a new date within a year. If my rates changed since you booked, the new rates apply. With other shoots, I’m more flexible.

I do couple sessions, engagement shoots, family shoots, portrait sessions, and I am open to other creative ideas. (Maternity, Christmas, Pets etc.) Drop me a line of what you’re thinking of.

We choose an inspiring location – which could be just your home as well – and for 2 hours I am going with your flow and to try to capture the essence of your personality. You can come up with any idea and do whatever you feel represents you in the most authentic way. We play it by the ear. I am tailoring this to your imagination. My goal is to let you be who you are and intervene as minimum as possible. This session is a great opportunity to spend some quality time with yourself or your loved ones and it can be a nice memory later. It is also a perfect gift for a birthday or for Christmas and if you are a couple, these photos can be later used on wedding invitations or as a decoration for your wedding.

Shooting on film renders images with a unique quality that digital photography could never perfectly reproduce. We connect ideas like nostalgia and naturality to this quality. Many times as a photographer I try to match my digital files to the colors and textures of film. It sees colors differently, many times creating a more harmonious tone, and creates a beautifully organic grainy texture thanks to the light sensitive silver halides that are randomly distributed on the film unlike the square shaped pixel points on the digital sensors. It records more information in the highlights creating more soft and refined details where the light hits. I also use some classic famous old lenses with my analogue camera which has softer contours.

Soon I will offer high quality albums as part of my add on services.

 

I think printing elevates the experience of enjoying a photo especially if it’s a collection organized in a book. Having something tangible feels more real. I like turning the page and creating the connection between the images. Watching an album is an act. You have to sit down and devote yourself to it. An album has a touch, a texture, and the colors of the photos are of course more powerful and accurate on the print. I think this is how a photo is meant to be seen. It’s just a different experience, and feels more complete to me. It’s easier to access, and it’s much easier to get lost in an image or ponder a photo if it’s printed out. It’s just my opinion.

I never post any photos anywhere without previously agreeing and discussing with the client.
