I had an honor to photograph a wedding of Sergey and Irina, which took place in Ukrainian Bible Church in Fairview, OR. I am very excited to present you a few images from their wedding. You are welcome to leave your comments below. Thank you!
PS. You can look at Sergey and Irina’s wedding album in this post.
I know, I have a few photographers who read my blog. So, this post might be interesting for you.
My beloved Santa brought me a nice gift for Christmas – several books about photography. The one of them is Visual Poetry by Chris Orwig. I enjoy reading it very much and here is why. The book is not about lens and exposures, it is about how to create better pictures. Once you pass the technical stuff and learn what is Av vs Tv mode, you would need to learn how to create pictures which speak, bring some feelings and make the viewer think. Besides being technically perfect, the pictures has to have some meaning, carry some message, engage some emotions. What do we have to do to create such images? This book may give you some answers. Here is what it says in the book overview:
“A great photograph has the potential to transcend verbal and written language. But how do you create these photographs? It’s not the how that’s important, but the who and the what. Who you are as a person has a direct impact on what you capture as a photographer.
Whether you are an amateur or professional, this guide provides inspiration, simple techniques, and assignments to boost your creative process and improve your digital images using natural light and no additional gear.”
You can visit visual-poet.com to learn more about Chris and his book. I particularly like guest speakers sections in the book where you can learn about other photographers and their work.
The book can be purchased from Amazon.
Happy Valentine’s Day to all!

Marina and Oleksiy were my wedding clients about year ago. Their wedding was such a blast! Now they are expecting a baby girl and Marina called me for a maternity photo session to capture her first pregnancy. I was really excited to see them again and do it for them. Check out a few of my favorite images. If you are expecting your first baby and interested in maternity pictures, please, contact me for a special maternity package.
