I'm a guac connoisseur, terrible surfer, avid traveller, adventurer, dog friend, awful runner, curious minded, creatively bent, people-person and storyteller kind-a-guy.

Hey, I’m Vlad!
I’ve been tinkering with cameras for over a decade. Turning my passions into my job became reality back in 2014 and I’ve never looked back.
Making weddings and elopements my prime focus was an easy choice. In what other workplace do you get to be constantly surrounded by happiness, beautiful people, free food and cake? Beats me.
You could say I’m infatuated with the infatuated ones. Nothing is more exhilarating to me than capturing powerful images that take you right back to where you were and how you felt – reflecting real moments and real feelings.
Let's be friends
I’m not just a business and you’re not just my client. We’re also real people, and if we’re to work together, it means there’s gonna be some personal buy-in.
That’s because feeling comfortable is key to creating honest photos. I can place you in front of a pretty sunset with great light, but let’s be real; if you’re feeling uncomfortable, the photo won’t be a keeper. I don’t rely on pretty backdrops for winner photos, I do what I can to foster real emotions.
For that reason, I invest heartily into my couples. Hearing your story and getting to know you is part of the creative process – you should expect that. Stiff business relationships are boring and don’t make for good photos nor a good time – and I aim to make damn sure both happen when you work with me.
So let’s connect. I’d love to hear your story.
