My name is Matthias and, as you may already know, I am a child of the Ruhr region. Born and raised in the pot, more precisely in Gelsenkirchen - Erle, today I am 39 years old, I am married and I can accompany the bride and groom from all over Germany for over 6 years. The fascination of wedding photography began with me, as perhaps with one or other colleagues, usually in the circle of friends. True to the motto - man, you make great pictures of couples, why can you certainly take our wedding pictures? Even though I was more than nervous and very aware of the task, I also wanted to photograph a wedding for the first time. Said, done! Since then, I can't ignore wedding photography! The true joy, happiness, and love of the bridal couple, the great mood between the guests and more, which makes this unique day special, keeps my own heart on each wedding day, which I witness repeatedly beating faster.

For 18 years I have been working as a freelance cinematographer on a variety of projects like short fiction, documentaries, TV series, live broadcast studio shows, music events and corporate films. I have worked for all important Polish TV stations. Since few years ago I work as a documentary wedding photographer. I love to capture true life and emotions between people and I use all my knowledge and skills to make a unique story of each wedding day. In 1991 I graduated Secondary School of Visual Arts - Photography Divison in Gdynia. In 1995 I graduated from the Polish National Film School in Lodz - Photography Dept. In 2001 I graduated from the Polish National Film School in Lodz - Cinematography Dept. [Cologne Wedding Photographer]

Raised in a family of artists, i got early very close to art and creating images in multiple ways. However, while the others were more concerned with painting, I grabbed the camera more often and so it was that I was the one who was responsible for the family photos. I started my photography-business with Portraits, Event-Photography and photojournalistic work for print-magazines. In 2011, a popular photo-magazine interviewed me and published a report about me. Since a number of years now, i feel that i am so much more enthusiastic about real moments, about happy people and about the magic of a wedding than about anything else. I love to catch joyful moments full of love and happiness. I believe that your wedding is about you and your guests.Even your wedding photos are one of the most precious memories i will not intervene in scenes. Aufgewachsen in einer Künstler-Familie bin ich schon sehr früh mit der Kunst und dem Kreieren von Bildern in Berührung gekommen. Während sich die Anderen jedoch mehr mit der Malerei befasst haben, schnappte ich mir immer öfter die Kamera und schon bald war ich diejenige, die für die Fotos im Familienalbum verantwortlich war. Mein fotografische Arbeit startete ich mit Portraits, Event-Fotografie und Fotojournalistischer Arbeit für Print-Magazine. Im Jahr 2011 kontaktierte mich ein bekanntes Foto-Magazin, was dann einen Bericht über mich und meine Bilder veröffentlichte. Seit einigen Jahren nun merke ich, dass ich eine viel größere Begeisterung für echte Momente, glückliche Menschen und die Magie einer Hochzeit habe als für alles andere im fotografischen Bereich. Ich liebe diese lebendigen Momente, voll von Emotionen, Glück und Liebe einzufangen. Bei Ihrer Hochzeit geht es um Sie und Ihre Gäste und auch wenn Ihre Hochzeitsfotos die wertvollsten Erinnerungen sind, werde ich nicht in Szenen eingreifen oder mich gar als Ihr Hochzeitsfotograf in den Fokus rücken.

Hi! My name is Vladimir, I'm a wedding photographer, 46 years old and I'm from Münster. My first encounter with photography was in 2002, when I first picked up a compact camera. Before that, I never thought that I would be a photographer. Of course, my first pictures were not perfect, luckily I had friends who supported me with simple words - "Keep it going, that works well". I met my teacher, who taught me to see the beauty of everyday life, in 2003. This was a professional photographer from Ryazan Eugeniy Kashirin. His teaching was never strict - "You have to do it that way" - no, he always said: I would do it ... Even though he had died of cancer to my great regret, his words impressed me deeply a: "Photography is the art of the moment". Like every amateur, I tried different kinds of photography, then I realized what my heart is - the people and their emotions - the indescribable, fast-moving things that can be captured with a camera. And where you can see the real and unencumbered, if not the most beautiful day of her life ... That's why I photograph weddings, I'm always on the hunt for unforgettable moments that they can enjoy after many years. And that's the main value of photography for me - that I can capture your feelings in my photos. At some point you will show these photos to your children. I want you to smile while watching, remember your emotions and return to a moment back in that time ... [North Rhine-Westphalia Wedding Photographer]

Daughter, sister, wife, mother, photographer of couples in love and happy people, born in Rio de Janeiro in 1986. I specialized in family photography with a lifestyle concept and documentary wedding photography in Brazil. Photography has always been my greatest passion. Since childhood, I have been fascinated by images and every single story behind them. And my inspiration for photography comes from music, subtleties of life, from romance ... every wedding and every family is always something very special for me. An important aspect for me of documentary photography is that it has to be timeless. This photo/photograph has great value today but will grow in value over time. Do you remember your favorite photos from 10, 20, 30 years ago or more? You can see that this photo has a lot more value today than the day it was taken. And in a few years, it will surely increase in value. So we have to get rid of fashion in photography, put Instagram filters aside and think about producing pictures that will be current even in 10, 20, 30 or more years. In front of us is what we want to see, very valuable and timeless photos. This is one of my big goals in documentary photography of a wedding. If you like my work and identify yourself with it, contact me and let me share your story! [Bavaria Wedding Photographer]

I was born and raised in Italy, in a small town in the mountains of the south called San Giovanni in Fiore, in the beautiful heart of the Sila. I studied graphics and photography in the great city of renaissance and culture in Florence, and now I live with my little family for a few years, a time of the year in Germany and the other time in Italy - depending on the wedding season. I am very much in love with my girlfriend and our first and wonderful child! I like to travel a lot, meet new people and hear their stories, but most of all, I love to play the guitar. When my son hears that, it makes him very happy and he starts to jump back and forth and shake his head like crazy. One less thing I like to do is spend half an hour brushing my crazy mane until it looks reasonably normal again! I've always had a passion for photography, especially street photography, the great portrait photographer and the great documentarists like Henri Cartier Bresson, Vivian Maier, Steve McCurry, Arnold Newman, Irving Penn, Diane Arbus, Edouard Boubat Sebastião Salgado - and it is these too that inspire me in my work.

I believe that, your wedding photographs should show more than how beautiful you look at your wedding. They should remind you what you live and feel on that day. My mission on each wedding is; - to produce meaningful, evocative photographs that focus on the precious moments - to help your future self remember the true story of your wedding, and possibly tell it to your generations - to make you feel, when you look at the photographs, like you are there and then again With that mission in mind, I have been photographing weddings since 2006. I am usually the closest person to the couple through their wedding day, yet I manage to stay unobtrusive, leading them only when they require me to. Most of my couples seem to forget about my presence as the day unfolds, which yields to those unexpected, relaxed, "in-the-moment" images. Currently I live in Istanbul with my wife, and my son who, after all these years, helped me realize why I love photographing weddings; it is because I am creating images for my couples that they and their grandkids will not just love to look at, but will also find touching and meaningful, even after many years. [Istanbul Wedding Photographer]

My photography must exceed your expectations. I laid the foundations at the Fotovakschool, I followed courses, but the most important thing: I followed my heart. I have found the perfect balance between ambition, challenge and love in my constant search for the perfect picture. My portfolio is proof of that. I want to create something. Something deep personal. I want to make the real connection with people. Being present in the unconditional love that two people feel for each other. Capturing it, it is a homage that gives me unbridled energy. ['s-Hertogenbosch Wedding Photographer]

My name is Boni Bonev, I was born in Svilengrad (Bulgaria) in 1970 and I live in Sofia (Bulgaria) since 1985. I am married and have two children. For the first time I touched the magic of photography when I was 7 years old, watching images appearing on a white sheet of photo paper in the darkroom of my uncle. Since then, photography has become my favorite pastime, and since 1991 with some interruptions also became a source of income. I love to paint with light, no matter if someone will pay me for it or not. Precisely for this reason, I always try to accept orders that will meet my personal preferences and understanding of photography. I like the reportage photography and the way of its making - with many unique moments caught without manipulation. I love working with natural light where possible, although I have a studio downtown in Sofia. As a founding member and administrator of the largest Bulgarian site on photography Photo Forum , I have arranged with my colleagues over 30 photographic competitions and exhibitions. Personally, I participated in many group exhibitions, and I have my own as well. They can be found in my personal site. Since I am master of science in electronics, I've always been interested in photographic equipment. I have written over 200 pages, photographic articles in print media, some of them technical. I am also the author of dozens of online tests in the Photo Forum of photographic cameras and lenses. I am coauthor of the first Bulgarian online photography tutorial "How to make better pictures with a digital camera", and the photographic book " In Focus ". Since 2005 me and my colleagues guided photographic courses in Sofia . With wedding and other commercial photography I work more intensively for several years. As you can see in my portfolio, I like clean, not manipulated photography with captured many moments, portraits and details. I love black and white photography, because it shows better real graphic pattern of light. Freed from unnecessary colors, photography remains just as volume, shape, light and storyline. I love metaphoric stories where one has to think, not just to perceive directly what he saw. I use camera with high resolution 24,5 mp and fast lenses , which re-create in better way the natural ambience of the place and minimize the introduction of artificial light. [Sofia Wedding Photographer]

My name is Ivelina and I can say photography is my passion! For nine years now I am a freelance photographer. Each and every one of these 9 years I continued upgrading - I would participate in a masterclass of some of my favourite photographers, simply for inspiration and to improve. In 2017 I realized an independent exhibition with 36 female portraits. But I also have separate participation in other exhibitions. Memories engage our emotions! Things we lived through, our background, is what remains in our hearts. But our memory is fragile and it is photography that makes the blurred memories bright. It makes it possible for us to remember those moments that make our life unique. Personally, for me, photography is both love and art, combined in one. The ability to see the good in every person and situation and show it in the best way possible. I experience moments in every wedding as a unique and such a special day, because I realize this is going to be the only time that all these people come together at this place, at the same time, looking for the relations between them, all those strong and deep emotions, smiling faces, the love and tears of happiness. And I love being there to capture it all! [Sofia Wedding Photographer]

Paulo Castro began his photographic journey in 2003. It all began as a hobby. In "the National Park of Peneda-Gerês," where his first pictures were taken, he learned to watch the light and understand the photographic technique. He devoted himself to photography of nature and portrait, having stood out in “specialist” magazines and on online sites. Later, between 2005 and 2010, other work was done in other several areas, especially in extreme sports and reporting in nightclubs. In 2010, he conducts his own project, to a momentous register and of memory and also begins to dream of the possibility of becoming a full-time photographer. With the birth of my daughter, Inês Castro in 2013, my greatest dream had come true. Since then my daughter has been the source of my inspiration in my professional career. Every moment is captured naturally and through it, I tell a story of reality. The photograph is what remains to later be remembered. I photograph for passion!!! [Braga Wedding Photographer]

I am Maik, an International Wedding Photographer currently based in Peru and Germany. My work has brought me to more than 15 different countries, from Caribbean beaches to the heights of the Andes, from the big apple to the Amazon Rainforest and all around Germany and Europe Over recent years my photography has won a number of prestigious international awards and my work has been featured in blogs and magazines. But more important to me is what my photos mean to my clients. Photographing weddings especially when far away can be exhausting but it is also so rewarding! Wedding photography has become a passion. I want to tell a story – an authentic story of your wedding day, a love story, a story of friendship and family, a story beyond what everybody sees – your story. [Lima Wedding Photographer]

My name is Krisztian Bozso. I am a wedding photographer and videographer based in Hungary. I started photography in 2010 as a part-time wedding and elopement photographer. In this time I was working for several local sites as a photojournalist. Since then it is my full-time job and my lovely hobby. Besides weddings I take portraits, engagements and couple sessions. I don't use flashes, just natural lights. I love details and emotional moments. Since 2018 I have been making wedding videos. [Budapest Wedding Photographer]

Hi, I'm Ronnie, born and grown up in Hong Kong, a tiny spot on our planet where 'East meets West'~ I studied History back in my University time, but besides my major study, I joined a documentary filmmaking course taught by a local veteran producer. That was when I started to discover my interest in videography and photography. Once graduated in 2008, I saved most of my salary from my first job, and bought my first ever camera. I became more addicted to photography, and especially photojournalism, because it has the magic to freeze a moment and tell a great story. Thanks to another experienced teacher, I was able to learn from him more advanced photographic technique and philosophy, and gradually I have engaged myself with wedding photography. Since then, I was lucky enough to cover weddings not only in Hong Kong, but also in Germany, Australia and China, with couples from various countries including France, Netherlands, Canada, South Korea and more. It's not an easy ride for sure, but I am glad that I have came through all these years and my love of wedding photojournalism simply grows with time! Besides photography, I'm a travelholic, although there are so many wonderful places yet for me to discover. Just like wedding photojournalism, I will never get bored of it! [Hong Kong Wedding Photographer]

I was fascinated by photography since I can remember. My education with photographic and architectural elements led to the work as a freelance photographer and architect. The work with the Leica M and Fuji X system brought me to wedding photojournalism and closer to the passion of capturing honest moments and details with a camera, that one would not usually notice.

Hello, I am Marli Eggelaar from WeGraphy Wedding photography! I was raised in Nuenen, a village near Eindhoven. A real Brabander who loves to work hard and play hard! Since I remember I was interested in photography and catching the moment. In 2006 I made a trip to Australia together with my now husband. Just before we left I bought my very first SLR camera. My father helped me because photography runs in the family :) My husband got crazy during the Aussie trip since I was constantly dreaming away behind the camera. Playing with the shutter speed and aperture and see what would happen. The feeling I got when I made that once in a lifetime shot made me very happy. I really enjoyed being creative. Doing something different than the status quo in photography. Although I was not a pro yet I mainly focused on finding the right light and the most beautiful colors. In 2013 I decided to my first photography study. At that point, I came to the conclusion that to me wedding photography is the one thing in life that makes me utterly happy. People, emotions, stories, and especially love, beautiful! And to be able to record that and be meaningful for others in that way. This suits me. In early 2017 I started to pursue my dreams, quit my day job and fully focus on full-time on wedding photography. Now, some years later I can say wedding photography is my dayjob. Every year I participate in courses, training, and seminars to constanly develop my style and signature even further. Friends describe me as caring, creative, perfectionist, and a persevering attitude. I prefer to register rather than direct. You will not see me. I remain low profile so the couple can relax and enjoy the day. I will never intervene in the real moments of your day. I record the events when they occur. I try to have as limited as possible posed photos. Those real pure love moments are so beautiful! In addition, I am extremely patient and wait 20 minutes in one spot to make the best photo. [Noord Brabant Wedding Photographer]
