Every meeting with fellow photographers is more than just an exchange of techniques — it’s a dialogue about vision, passion, and the craft that unites us. I remember that evening in Kharkiv, after my master class, when my beloved and I joined a circle of colleagues and friends.
Surrounded by laughter, stories, and inspiration, I met with Vitaly Bachako, Vladimir Lelyuk, and Michael Zvegintsev — whose creative eye once captured some of my own portraits.
Even now, living and working as a wedding photographer on Phu Quoc Island, I carry with me the warmth of such encounters. They remind me that photography is not only about equipment or settings, but about people, shared energy, and the spark that keeps our work alive.
After my master class, my beloved and I spent the evening in a cheerful company of Kharkiv photographers. We met with Vitaly Bachako and went to Vladimir Lelyuk and Michael Zvegintsev. Michael, by the way, is the author of these works of mine.
