Old Monastery Wedding. Sucevita Wedding. Nuna la Manastirea Sucevita
.
I photographed this wedding back in 2013 (!). While I like to hold on to my old work to be able to see how I grow over the years, I encourage your to check out my more recent work, here.

Old Monastery Wedding Sucevita Monastery. Nunta la Manastirea Sucevita
Earlier this summer I traveled far up in the north of Romania to photograph the wedding of Raluca and Lucian. I had an amazing time there. I was overwhelmed with the beauty of the mountains. Moreover, I experienced the craziest wedding party of this summer. Also, I broke the record in wedding coverage, photographing for 23 hours. (Many thanks to Em Iova for working beside me on this day). And I won a fearless award with an image from this day.
The orthodox wedding ceremony took place in the in the Sucevita Monastery, a painted church part of World Heritage Sites.
Here is what Raluca writes about her wedding:
– Tell me about how your wedding day has been. What were the best parts of your wedding?
It all went so fast that I can hardly remember something clearly.
I guess the karaoke part was nice, the flying candles also and the flash stickers dancing.

– What were you looking for when searching for a wedding photographer? Why did you choose me?
– Were there any things that did not meet your expectations?
I loved the way the photos looked. The looked clean, natural.
– Were your expectations met?
Totally. It felt like having a friend not a photographer. That was the best part!
– Are you satisfied with the quality of the photographs in terms of artistic expression?
Totally.
– What was the response/reaction of your parents and your friends when seeing the images?
They did not see them yet. Didn’t get the time to do that :( I wait for the album.
– What did you most enjoyed about working with me?
Impression of having a friend. That was what I needed. Thank you!
– Were there any things that did not meet your expectations?
Nop. I would like to know you better. You really are a nice person.
