25.01.2022 So, tell me about yourself. Most of us think that people know who do we work as, what we like and what we don't like from the first look or message. Certainly, some people heard of you and have a little bit of information but first, it's a little bit of information and second, most likely they don't know anything except your name and the rest simply don't have a clue.... It's an assumption that most of us have and I wasn't an exception. It was a surprise for me when some of the people that I knew for years, didn't know that I'm the photographer. I know, right?! It's okay though because I didn't position myself in a right way and most likely met them when I was bartending and that was their first impression with no room for anything else. Now, when people do as me what I'm doing for a living. I've always answered that I'm a photographer, shooting portraits but can do anything and that's where my main mistake was. Saying that you can do everything is a big issue because it doesn't make you stand out and you're not showing what you're good at. That misleads people and in the head they have no particular label or trigger to remember about you in a professional way. So let me tell you about myself and I'd like to hear about you in the comments! I'm Dani, I work as a professional photographer and videographer, focusing on portraits, cosplay and cinematic, poster looking shoots. I'm an ex bartender so love to have a good chat while we're working. I read a lot of literature about psychology, human brain and thinking since year 8 at school and recently started working on becoming a personal coach as I love learning more about people and helping out to reach their dreams. That shows up in a lot of my work because when I'm editing, I put little details about the person and showing them who they are through the "character" created on my posters. Nice to meet you. Now, can you tell me more about yourself?

25.01.2022 It's weird. Most of my life I was considering myself an introvert but turns out that extrovert part actually dominates in me. I didn't notice it but still was constantly surrounded by people even if I'm not the one lighting up the room, I'm there and enjoying the company.... When I was a kid, I spent most of the time with somebody. In kindergarten I was acting, same thing at school, whenever there's a chance to perform in 99% of rhe time I'd take it. Activities, flashmobs, walks with friends, several kind of sports and my mind somehow decided to grow a thought of "I'm an introvert" The truth is that it's just hard sometimes to walk up to someone and start chatting. Weirdly enough tho, doing something in front of a big group is easy and gors so naturally. I only found out about my extroverted part when I actually cut off the time that I spent around big groups of people. I started getting tired, became less creative and genuinely felt worse. It took at least a month to find out why it was happening and trust me, month is a fucking long time when you feel like shit. Right now I'm doing everything to be able to see my friends, creating work environment where I can chat with my clients about everything and make them feel like we've known each other for a long time. Even when I'm studying in my coaching sessions and work group (where I'm supposed to be back in October), I'm surrounded by bunch of amazing people. My extroverted part is happy and becomes happier every day. Right now I'm on the way to birthday of the hero of this poster - @yelizaveta_loveykina . So, happiest of birthdays to you ;) I'll say more when I'm there

18.01.2022 Night is made so people could sleep. Yes. I 100% agree with it. End of the post. Well, not quite that short. It's interesting how a lot and by a lot I mean HEAAPS of important things im my life kept happening at night. Even when something happens during the day, Importance of it shows up only at night. It's just a magic time.... Back in the days some people knew me only at night because of my previous job and it was funny to see them during the day, when they'll get surprised all of a sudden. Right now my sleep schedule is mostly normal but when it comes to photography, for some reason people usually prefer it during the night. Not sure if you know it but I shoot DURING THE DAY TOO. I love my night time every now and then. However, shooting during the day has its magic too. All because I bring it with me and find it in you. So if you thought that I'm just the night person, no. I know how to work in night setting and I'm happy to work during the day. If you're after some great portraits for you, your social media or even something with your partner. All you need to do to book a shoot is send me a message!

18.01.2022 Nobody cares. Ever got that feeling, when you're trying to do something in front of people it usually scares you? Even if it's just you walking on the street and realise that you're going in the wrong direction. Instead of turning and going to the right one, you'll have a look at your phone, watch and might even say something to make up an excuse to be able to turn in the middle of the street. Same thing happens in our daily life, when it looks like everybody's watching. I'm ...more than comfortable, when I'm giving a presentation, talking with a group of people and doing weird stuff in front of the crowd. (Not that stuff, u pervs) When it comes to filming myself on the phone, doing insta stories, I used to freak out. Still do sometimes because it feels like everyone's eyes are on you and I might make somebody feel uncomfortable or just gonna look silly. Similar during the shoots, when you need to do something out of "norms" it feels like you're going to be judged. Literally, look at that dude passing by that looks pissed. Definitely because your model is blowing bubbles and not because he just stepped in shit. Literally, during this shoot we had a person that just came up and stared for no reason and didn't say a word when I talked to him. Yes, it killed my mood for a moment because it was weird but in general, nobody walked up and said anything. I did my job, model did her, you see the results ;) We pay too much attention to what other people might think, while in reality they don't even care and busy with their own lifes just like we are busy with ours. Keep doing what bothers you and stop thinking what might bother others.

14.01.2022 Why do I hide faces on my photos? It's an interesting tool in my photographer's kit. On most of the photos that I take, you'll see that face is hidden in one way or another. It's done by creating shadows, adding overlays, wearing glasses, turning people's face, having a beard and with many other things. Even pictures that I like, save and enjoy looking at, most of them have model's or character's face covered.... Face hiding in photos comes from not accepting yourself in one way or another. For some people it's hiding their feelings, for others something that they don't like in their appearance. Also, yes, I'm still talking about the photographer, person that takes a photo and doesn't accept something in his or her personality, shows it by covering the face of the model. It is a part of that person's style, which might change through the time and become either darker and depressed tones or by slowly showing a bit more of the face and making it shine more than usual. None of that is good or bad, especially when you know about that in you and your photos. For me, I hide faces in photos because I don't fully accept the way I feel. I don't always accept the fear and that leads not only in covering something on the pictures that I take but in procrastination in daily life. Working with coaches on that topic has helped me to open up the faces more and face what I have but not fully get rid of it. Fear is normal, fear is part of the life but the more you're running from it the more it gets you. Facing it and accepting it helps you to understand what lies underneath and that in most cases it's not as big as you think it is. Something that people are scared of and what I meet a lot is that they don't look as good, that photos with them wouldn't be as great as with somebody else and just a simple fear of being in front of the camera. I know how to deal with it because I went through that myself and from the person who wouldn't like to be in the picture, I started loving it. I know what you deal with and can help you to work on it during the photoshoot, knowing that you'll be able to take it with you and feel comfortable not only when I'm behing the camera but anyone.

12.01.2022 "Hey, u wanna studio on weekend?" That's how this shoot started on a late night Thursday. I had no ideas for shoots, no models, didn't even think about having a gapher (person who works with lighting) and you see the results. As soon as I heard the word projector, cogs in my mind started spinning, over 20 models wanted to participate and one of them cancelled on the day. If I went slower or said no, none of those photos would be taken and I wouldn't be able to create one of m...y favourite series so far. You can't even guess, the amount of the plans, shoots and genuinely dope stuff that started in my head, never got out of it and died. I had the idea of the shoot like that for over a 1.5 years and never worked on sorting it out. Idea is in my mind but there were no actions to make it come true. In a perfect world, as soon as you have a thought about the shoot in your head, that's when you gotta start working on it. Otherwise, it goes in the drawer of dead ideas, which already has so much stuff there. It is a very recent habit that I'm still working on and kicking myself in the shins, whenever I don't follow "Do it straight away" strategy. It's such a crucial part for the creators to make their plans, ideas and thoughts go Live as soon as possible because if you don't do it, it becomes a burden, it gives you an illusion of having thousands of ideas, when realistically it's about 20 max. Go and create, that's all I've got to say here.

04.01.2022 Heartbreaker How to break a heart and make it look good? First, you need a person to work with.... Second, you become close with that person. Third, one of you breaks a heart. So far, not good, right? Heart is one of the main parts of our body. It's the part that is associated with love, care and life in general. It pumps blood for you every day, every second and makes you alive. It keeps you that way even when it gets broken. I'm sure you all can remember a time when somebody, who was really close to you, said or did a thing, which made you skip a beat. Left a pain in there, made you feel like absolute shit. What we don't notice during that time is that your heart keeps pumping that blood, keeps you alive, keeps working even though it hurts. That small muscle, size of your knuckle, keeps pumping and pumping and pumping. Yet we complain. I say we because I'm not an exception. I've had terrible break ups just like you, I lost people from my family just like you, had to stop talking to people that I thought are my friends just like you. It's life. If our heart would stop after having a small inconvenience and shitty situation, yes, you wouldn't have to experience any more of it but you wouldn't have any good moments either. Another love, another gathering with friends or family, another great movie, where you can feel how your heart is filling up with emotions and so many more things. Such a cliche thing to say but keep living. Learn from shitty situations and keep going because great ones will come too. Fourth, you shoot how that heart is getting broken and make it look good. That's the only way it can be good.
