About me

Welcome to Fotoesperanzas!

Hi, welcome to my web-page!

I am Nadia, and at the moment I live in San Javier, Murcia. I live and breathe photography and graphic design already for more than 10 years, though sometimes I have to engage myself in other activities also. Originally I am from Ukraine, and here, in my galleries, you can also see what inspired me back then and what I am still missing

I love photography as a way of life, and all kinds of it are appealing to me. But working with people is what inspires me most of all. The biggest value for me is freedom of any kind, freedom of thought, mind, idea or feeling, and I always try to create a comfortable atmosphere for my models, to set them free, to put at ease and to reveal those sides of them, that they could never imagine to be present. I try to show them the image of themselves they would fall in love with

When I am taking pictures at the weddings, I try to capture the unique and precious love story of every couple and to create the best memories that people would carry though their lives. The moments which will make them smile or cry, or have beautiful flashbacks to that miraculous day when they became a family. And I always make those little slideshows of mine, emotional mini-movies, which I create with much care and inspiration, selecting each and every image and a piece of music to fit.

I don’t like mass-production, generally, starting from fast-food and finishing with fast picture-processing. Everything should have a human touch and the best things are usually done manually. That’s why, although it take more time and effort, I process the pictures using individual approach to each one of them, trying to create natural and real images, which don’t need to much of post-processing. At that I try to deliver the pictures as fast as I can, and my models hardly wait for them for more than a month.

Hope, after reading this, you’ve got a better idea about me and my attitude towards photography :). So, let’s try it together – to experience and to see the world, captured through my lens!
