МY STORY
WEDDING AND REPORTAGE PHOTOGRAPHER
IN ASTANA
Since 2004, I have been taking photographs — it all started when a family friend asked me to shoot a wedding. When people began to genuinely smile and relive moments through my photos, I realized: this is more than just a hobby.
After several years working in the oil and gas industry, I returned to creativity, developed studios, and mastered working with artificial light.
In 2017, I returned to reportage photography — first covering official events, and later having the opportunity to work with the country's top officials. Today, I photograph weddings — stories of genuine emotions and heartfelt moments.
It's important for me to be a witness, not a director. Sometimes I gently guide, but the main thing is to let events unfold naturally.
MY PATH
EVERY ARTIST HAS THEIR OWN PATH
Mine is through photography. For me, photography isn't about staging and perfect poses. It's about being present and seeing when something genuine happens between people.
I don't chase dramatic effects. What matters to me is the quiet of the moment — what remains between the frames. Every shoot is a way to spend a day with people and preserve the true essence of a moment.
Over time, I've realized: photography is a state of being. It helps you notice the simple things that make up a life.
