Cote d’Azur Wedding Photographer :: St Jeannet

December 30, 2014 ·

Last week we went to south of France to see some friends and visited this lovely town called St Jeannet. It is located 15km outside of Nice. These first images are the garden of my friend, that lives in St Jeannet. It’s a cactus oasis 🙂 I love cactus and had a need to take pictures and show you! It’s a little paradise, green and so french 🙂 I have to admit, Im in love with french style! It drags you in! All these little details they have all around! I’m addicted to details!

Later we all went for a walk in the town, that is tooo cute! At this time of the year it’s pretty quite! So you wont see people on the streets. Also it was cloudy that day, so it provided diffused light, which is my favourite natural light situation 🙂 Unfortunately no dramatic looking clouds 🙁

Anyway, I was happy to see my friends and to able to show one more place of this beautiful planet earth!

To see more images from my travels, you can do here!

Portofino Christmas Lights

December 24, 2014 ·

Wow, and one more year come to an end! But what a year! It has been very productive and great year with lots of traveling and shooting! I still hope, the next year has so much more for me and all of us! If to believe in horoscopes, my sign (which is leo) will experience lots of good new changes! So Im kind of excited and of course I wont be sitting and waiting for those changes 🙂 To be honest Im so impatient, that I can barely wait for wedding season to come! I get goose bumps just from thinking about next year adventures! And I hope YOU will be a part of my adventure 🙂

For this beautiful time of the year, I’ve been lucky to spend it in Tuscany, Italy. So in this post I will share couple of images from two gorgeous towns, Santa Margherita Ligure at first and Portofino, that is beautifully lighted. All Portofino marina is framed in lights! It’s such a magical view! And I really feel like it’s that time of the year, when you should be happy and spread the joy all around!

Happy Holidays to You and your family!

How I started with the photography

December 11, 2014 ·

So how I started with the photography, the story of my transition to photography is not as interesting as it was after I decide to get serious in photography. I was not one of those people who took a camera and what ever they shot it looked like from the magazine. I had to learn it all from the basics. I purchased my first SLR camera Nikon D40 camera in 2005 when I was working on Carnival Cruise Line in USA. I still remember that day, when I went to the camera shop in Sand Diego downtown. Felt like a child in the toy store. At that time the purpose of that camera was just to capture the beauty of the world, while traveling in Bahamas, Mexico and Virgin islands. And to be honest I was mainly shooting auto. It sucked but I didn’t have much time learning all the tricks of the photography. Probably if the phones were that good those days, like they are now, I wouldn’t even buy that fancy camera (at that time it was fancy). Luckily I did bought that black machine that lead me to where I am now 🙂

When I was done with the cruise ships in 2008 I merged to the luxury yachting in south of France. This is where I met my partner in life and thanks to him, now I’m doing what I love. I actually have never thought I will be doing something that I love. I have been very lucky to find a photography. It makes my heart sing 🙂 It’s a feeling, I wish everyone could feel while going to work.

Today, I am shooting wedding already for 4 years and during those years I met so many awesome people and most of the time thanks to photography. I love every aspect of it, the connections I make with my clients, the creative part of it, the places I see while travel for work. I mean, how can you not love it 🙂 It gives me all that I need. I always knew that I have this creative bug in me, because I always tried to create something with my own hands. But nothing kept me as interested as photography did.

Today, I would like to thank, all of my clients that hired me and trusted me to do my best. And I will work continuously to get better at what I do and bring you the best of me.

Also, I wish to all of you to find yourself the hobby or the job of your dreams!!!

And if you already found what you love to do, would love to hear about it in the comments 🙂

Tuscany Wedding Photographer :: Beautiful Lucca

December 3, 2014 ·

Someone pinch me! I’m one lucky girl to be in one of the most beautiful places on the earth, Tuscany! It is one special place! Everywhere you go, it’s just so much to see. Of-course I went to see Pisa and her famous tower, but that lovely city I will show you in the future posts. Im sure it will be more than 1 🙂

This time I would like to share images of one amazing place like Lucca. It’s located 30km from Pisa. Old town of Lucca is surrounded with a tall wall, that is separating it from the town. The place is like a fairy tale! You enter and see flowers, happy people, this time of the year lots of leafs on the ground and bazillion bicycles all over 🙂 Make me feel like getting one for myself. When we came to Lucca, it was sunny and soon after clouds took over the sky. To be honest, Im almost 1 month here and it’s been raining cats and dogs here. But no matter the weather, Italy is beautiful either way!

I let you enjoy the images and if you liked it, leave a comment 🙂

Green Monaco

April 18, 2014 ·

This is the end of my journey in French Riviera! And last post is from Monaco. The spring has arrived to Monaco 🙂 And sun bathing season is open. Not for me though 🙂 But soon, I will hit the beach.

And it is time for me to go back to my beloved Bodrum. One awesome summer is ahead of me. Can wait to shoot all those beautiful weddings that I booked for 2014 summer.
