Daria Orlova Photo

I fell in love with photography about 15 years ago when I started travelling the world. I was always coming back home and showing my family and friends pictures that I'd taken while away from home. I used to have multiple scrapbooks with photos and small stories attached to them. My heart fell in love with photojournalism. Telling someone's story through photos is my favorite thing to do. And when it comes to weddings, I prefer to photograph everything from the very beginning all the way to the end of the day. To capture all the small details of your day and all the smiles.

I've shot at least over 100 weddings and I clearly understand that a lot of people absolutely don't like being in front of the camera. And posing can get very awkward. And this is why I tend to leave posing behind and capture raw emotions. What is the difference you might ask? Well, go to the mirror, look in it and try to smile. A bit awkward, isn't it? Can you recall the day your fiancé proposed to you or when you proposed to your fiancée? See the difference in your smile? This is my approach to tphotography.
