OK. This should be done long time ago. I should start writing about
myself and my photographic activity. It is not easy. I always say I'm
not a writer. Great excuse was - I have no time and...I'm not a writer!
There are a lot of things to share. Nice things, nice thoughts. And probably this is the moment to start writing and sharing.
Well, first of all, need to say why I'm writing in English. I'm not good
writer in Romanian because I'm not Romanian. It takes me a century to
write few sentences in Romanian. I have no inspiration, no appropriate
words and I always should ask Costin to check my spelling. I could write
in Russian because I'm Russian. But who will understand this language?!
(Costin understands a little bit and he says it's very funny how it
sounds and written Russian is funny too). Definitely, Russians speakers
are not my target. :) I began to study English from the age of 10 and
Romanian...6 years later. So, English is my choice. I can not say that
I'm so confident and feel like English is my native language. But I feel
comfortable and free to express my thoughts in the most commonly spoken
language in the world. I'm Natalia, a photographer with Russian name
living in Romania and writing in English. Nice to meet you all! :)
Second point, I'm going to write about myself, my favorite activity -
photography, my family business, and a lot of interesting (hope really
interesting) things. I have incredible desire to share experiences, to
tell what I love and what I don't love, to be open and to be close to my
friends, brides and grooms, people that have the same interests, and
people that adore photography.
And as the end of introduction, a couple of words about photography.
I adore to create stories about people and for people and I like to escape from routine. I found inspiration in everything - movies (due to
my husband), books, magazines, advertising, music.
Thanks to my mom!
When I was a child, I had a lot of beautiful illustrated books and I
spent my time (huge amount of time) admiring again and again pictures
with happy princesses (Yes, happy!) and fairy-tale characters.
Poor
dad! Every evening he owed to read tales to his daughter because without
reading, stories were not completed. And I wanted to know if my
imagined story from the illustrations is similar with the author's
variant.
So, I started to create scenarios long, long time ago.
Photography is my escape, opportunity, dream, wish to do what I love to
do - to be more precise, to imagine, to create scenarios, and to be among
happy, enamored, passionate people.
Here are 2 beautiful stories. Both are full of joy, happiness, love.
Despite of rain, wind and snow in Cristina&Gabi case we adore the
time spent with them. It was really funny and weather conditions tested a
little bit our mood. But as I like to say: Nature has no bad weather.
So, it was something new and result ... as it was a beautiful fall day.
About Mari&Cristi I can say only that sea was reflection of their
love. Such a kissy bride and groom! Love them! They were comfortable in
front of the camera and it was so easy to jump around them and shoot,
shoot, shoot.
Enjoy slide-shows
Cristian&Gabi and
Mari&Cristi!
Wish you a super lucky week!
