POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

A quiet pause in the heart of the city, where soft light meets warm wood and modern architecture. @eremeeva_sonya moved through the space with effortless grace, bringing a sense of calm to every frame.

I wanted this shoot to feel like a meeting between a woman and a place that had been waiting for her.

The pale stone, carved by time, holds both stillness and strength. Against it, @chri.chrik feels almost like a figure from another world — quiet, self-possessed, and entirely at home in the landscape. I was drawn to the contrast between the softness of the dress and the raw, ancient texture of the rock, creating a story that feels somewhere between a dream and a memory.

What I love most about photography is the freedom to create something new every time. I’ve never been interested in simply taking beautiful pictures — I love coming up with ideas, exploring unexpected locations, experimenting with light, colors, and finding something special in the most ordinary moments.

For this shoot with @fioletovayavi, I wanted to create something playful, a little chaotic, and cinematic. Neon lights, reflections, bright colors, and that feeling of getting lost in a completely different world.

I love when a shoot feels less like a production and more like a little adventure. When we can just have fun, experiment, follow the moment, and let the story happen naturally.

I shot this series on 40mm F2.5 from @7artisansofficial. What I really enjoyed about this focal length is how naturally it brings the subject and environment together, letting me capture both intimate moments and the atmosphere around them.

For me, creativity is all about staying curious, trying something different, and never losing that excitement of making something new

Every time I meet @vivilerr, it feels like a little world of its own. There are always new moments, familiar stories, and unexpected connections between our memories — one conversation leads to another, until we’re talking about everything and nothing, and somehow end up having one of those deep conversations about life.

This shoot happened spontaneously, in the middle of an ordinary day in Guangzhou. It was quick and easy, squeezed in between other plans, with no big setup or pressure. We just wandered, talked, and took a few photos along the way. I love how these moments find their way into the pictures: the city around us, the unhurried mood, and the feeling of simply being there together.

Every meeting leaves me with something different to remember. This time, it was a few frames in Tianhe, a lovely evening , and another conversation I’m glad we had.

I always love 85mm for portraits because it gives me the perfect balance between intimacy and distance. It lets me stay connected with the person in front of the camera while still giving them enough space to relax and move naturally.

I shot this series with @sherdakova__lera on the 85mm f/1.4 from @meike_global, and I really liked how it rendered both the portrait and the location. The perspective feels flattering, the background stays soft, and at F1.4 the subject separates beautifully without losing the atmosphere around her.

What I loved most is how effortless these images feel. Nothing is too staged or overly polished — there’s movement, softness and those small in-between moments that often become my favorite frames.

For me, that’s what makes a good portrait lens. Not only sharpness or bokeh, but the way it helps you capture a person naturally and keep the feeling of the moment.

There are shoots where everything comes together naturally — the light, the location, the mood, and a subject who completely belongs in the frame. This series felt exactly like that to me.

With today’s release of the new 85mm f/1.2 from @songraw_official , I wanted to create more than just a lens test. I wanted the images to feel refined, cinematic, and emotionally quiet. @chri.chrik brought exactly the kind of presence I was looking for — elegant, soft, but at the same time confident and strong. The raw, sculptural textures of the location created a beautiful contrast with her look and made the whole story feel even more expressive.

What I love most is how balanced the whole series feels. The fabric, warm light, reflections, stone textures, and her expression all work together without competing for attention.

The new 85mm f/1.2 was a perfect fit for this mood. I also really love its silver design — it feels stylish, solid, premium, and full of character. In the images, it gives the subject beautiful separation while still preserving the atmosphere and depth of the location.

For me, a portrait lens should do more than create blur. It should help build a feeling. This series is about elegance, light, texture, and presence — and the new lens helped bring all of that together.

We arrived with one idea. Then it started to rain, and everything changed.

The original concept and location no longer worked the way we had imagined, so we stopped trying to follow the plan and began looking at the space differently. We followed the light, the lines of the architecture, and the movement of the model.

The cloudy sky softened everything, while the dark geometry of the location created the perfect contrast with her elegance. What initially felt like a problem became the most important part of the shoot — and the final images turned out even better than the ones we had planned.

I created this series with the TTArtisan 85mm f/1.8 Neo from @ttartisanofficial. It allowed me to isolate the model from the surroundings while still keeping the architecture present in the story. I especially loved how it captured her expressions, the movement of her hair and dress, and the quiet mood that appeared after the rain.

Sometimes the best shots begin exactly where the original plan ends.

Somewhere between summer and a daydream.

We found this quiet green corner in the middle of Guangzhou, picked a handful of wildflowers and let the afternoon unfold without trying to control it too much.

Soft light, white lace, daisies, endless shades of green — everything came together like a little scene from another time, with @sivak_kate bringing exactly the kind of delicate, dreamy energy this story needed.

For a moment, it didn’t feel like we were in one of the biggest cities in China at all. Just summer, nature, and a story worth keeping.

I always loved how cities can surprise you. One minute you’re surrounded by skyscrapers and busy streets, and the next you find a quiet corner above the city where you can just enjoy the moment.

Summer, tennis and a skyline that makes you stop for a second.

Some of my favorite photos happen in places people usually walk past without noticing.

Local markets, narrow streets, the sound of scooters, conversations I still don’t fully understand. Moving to another country changed the way I see ordinary places. What once felt unfamiliar slowly became a source of inspiration.

Photography helps me connect with cities through people. Every shoot becomes a small story where fashion meets everyday life, and familiar streets turn into something cinematic.

Creativity grows when you leave your comfort zone. Sometimes all you need is curiosity, good light, and someone willing to create with you.

Moving to another country changes the way you see the world.

New streets, new faces, new stories. Every person you meet becomes a small part of your journey.

Photography has always been my way of connecting with people. Not just capturing how someone looks, but preserving a feeling, a moment, a story.

Living in Guangzhou, I’ve met people from different backgrounds and cultures. Working with amazing people like @vivilerr reminds me that every portrait is more than just an image — it’s a meeting of two worlds, a shared moment of creativity and trust.

Every photoshoot reminds me that creativity has no borders. A camera can become a bridge between strangers, turning a simple moment into a memory that stays forever.

Captured with 56mm f/1.7 APS-C from @meike_global — a lens with a unique character, soft depth and cinematic rendering that helped bring this story to life.

Кантонская телебашня — один из главных символов современного Гуанчжоу.

Её строительство началось в 2005 году, а официально башню открыли в 2010 году перед Азиатскими играми в Гуанчжоу.

Высота башни — 600 метров вместе с антенной, благодаря чему долгое время она была самой высокой телебашней в мире.

Интересно, что её форма вдохновлена женской фигурой — изящная, но при этом очень технологичная конструкция. Днём она выглядит минималистично, а ночью превращается в огромный экран, меняя цвета и освещая весь район Чжуцзян Новый город.

Для меня Гуанчжоу — это именно такое сочетание: история, культура и невероятные технологии рядом друг с другом. Ещё несколько десятилетий назад здесь был совсем другой город, а сегодня это один из крупнейших мегаполисов Китая.
