camera Canon EOS 700D (Rebel T5i)

Patti started out in the art department at PAPER MAGAZINE in the early 90's and could not have had a better education in street art than that! She was and still is super influenced by graffiti, street photography and the energy of the then underground scene of skating and b-boying. You can find traces of these influences in a lot of her photographs. Going from graphic design to photography has been a seamless transition. Having extensive knowledge of the print process and retouching is a big help in post-production and just adds another level of expertise to what she offers when shooting. Patti recently fell in love with food photography and has been honing her skills in this space for the past 3 years.

He attended his first F1 race in 2022 and regards it as one of the best weekends of his life. Additionally, he enjoys visiting the Rocky Mountains and hiking on the trails.

With each upgrade, he discovered new and intriguing perspectives on subjects that may seem mundane, presenting them in a fresh light. He strives to do the same with his client's photo shoots.

I have been into photography since i was 15 years old (so almost 30 years at this point). I graduated Moscow State Unvercity with a Degree in Photo Journalism. Have worked a freelance for various media outliets in Moscow, Russia. Have started my wedding career in 2003 and have photographed and captured on film hundreds of weddings. Every wedding is unique and the key is to find that something special about each couple and try to reflect that in my images. My background as a photojournalist gave me a good eye for catching those special moments that happen at every wedding, but can easily be missed if not able to recognize and capture them. A successful wedding photographer or cinematographer must have the ability and flexibility to handle any unpredictable situation on a busy wedding day and still deliver consistent quality images. You can trust me with your wedding and your memories!!

camera Canon R5

Well, Hello, I am Orkhan. Professional Photographer and Filmmaker with ten years of experience. I love to create images that tell a story. Creating timeless memories in the cinematic tone is what I am looking for in Dramatic/Artistic Portraiture. Speaking of headshots or corporate-style photography, the genres of these photographs are different. Meanwhile, it is possible to create dramatic headshots in the studio condition. But, it perfectly fits for writer, director o any artist. The client should look professional, confident, and relaxed in the regular headshot. Speaking of photography, my approach depends on the genre of photography, the client's occupation, location, lighting patterns and etc.

Photographer

How did you get started with photography

In 2011, I got started with photography using an entry level DSLR, it was my sister’s gift. I was shooting just for my hobby. I would go out with my camera every day and photograph cool things that I came across in the street, like plants, objects, and my photographer friends. I could develop my skills as soon as I moved to NY in 2014, when I used to work as "Executive Assistant" in a Staten Island office. My husband is a professional photographer and film maker, so he taught me how to shoot and retouch pictures with Lightroom. In 2016, I finally left my office work to dedicate myself fulltime to photography.

What do you love about your job?

I love touching souls with my art. Taking pictures is a true passion for me and always will be.

What are some of your favorite places in New York City to take photographs?

My favorite places to shoot portraits in New York are Dumbo in Brooklyn (between the bridges), Central Park, Grand Central and SoHo.
