My name is Olga and I’ve been working as a photographer in Berlin for over 16 years. I first grabbed a camera when I was still a teenager but it would be many moons before I finally turned my passion into a job. On my way to this career I was lucky enough to have worked for various photo agencies and magazines which helped train my eye and gave me the confidence to branch out on my own. Since turning to this path, the reward I get from satisfied clients continues to encourage me to stick to it and I can with all honesty say I am doing what I should be doing.

Because I haven’t gone to school for photography, I have a personal approach to it. Unlike most photographers, I don’t have a particular style. Every couple and every setting has a unique vibe and the photos I take should somehow convey that, is my belief. Apart from that, I also like to push myself, and I want to continue to explore and grow - trying out things is part of the fun.

In terms of how I shoot, I try to be like an elusive yet friendly ninja. I wish for everyone to relax in my presence to the point they forget I’m there which in turn allows me to capture genuine interactions and real moments of joy. I want my couples to look at the photos in the future and be instantly transported back to all the photographed moments, in part, because they were able to experience their wedding fully without feeling stifled by my camera.

I would be very happy to document Your wedding with those prerogatives in mind. And it would thrill me to no end to surprise you and deliver the type of imagery that would make your heart flutter for years to come.
