Hi,
I hope you don't mind me replying in english.
It's true - photography is only my hobby - I don't need to make money from it because I have another job that pays very well. However, I do take it very seriously! I try to be very professional with my equipment, my studio, the way I handle my models, and my photography as a whole - and I think that shows in my photos.
I try to be very fair with my models and actually go a lot further than most photographers. Models get the full-resolution photos (without any logos/text/advertising) on a DVD on the day of the shoot and a signed form giving them full rights to use the photos for any use. I'm not trying to rip anyone off - I'm only interested in producing high-quality photos that I can use to promote myself and in gaining experience for my goal in becoming a world-class photographic artist. Maybe I'm dreaming - but I get to meet some very interesting people, I get an outlet for my creativity, with every session my photography gets better, AND I have some great photos that I'm very proud of - so it's a very nice dream and I'm happy!
So if anyone is interested in a session, head over to [
