August 2, 2021

I am all about embracing all weather conditions during the outdoor photoshoot in Sussex, Brighton and Hove locations. Wether its in Brighton & Hove centre, beach, woodland or open field.

What is the best time of the day for an Outdoor Portrait Photo shoot - Personal Brand Photographer Sussex UK

September 6, 2019

As a photographer, I am always looking fore the best light for my outdoor, inspired by nature portrait photo session with inspiring and creative women.

This “golden hour” has been my obsession lately, when the sun is quite low in the sky and you can feel the last touches of its warmth on your skin.

And just a few minutes before the sunset, the sky is full of warm shades of orange, dancing with fiery red and intense pink. By catching the perfect moment, we can turn this magical view into a piece of art, where your beauty is fully supported by delicious, soft and flattering light.

Are you a flowing water, invincible woman or a limitless, resilient rock woman? - Personal Brand Portrait Photo session

August 5, 2019

Are you a flowing water, invincible woman or a limitless, resilient rock woman?

Both are powerful yet showing their strength in a distinct way.

As a Professional Personal Brand Portrait Photographer and Retreat Photographer based in “sunny” UK, Sussex area, I strive to be surrounded with women who trust and surrender to the flow of life. It may even be at its simplest, the state when we just are, and we know that we are exactly where we should be.

How to choose a perfect location for the Personal Brand Portrait Photo session?

July 17, 2019

Yay, location, Location, LOCATION! 

One of my favourite aspects of being a professional portrait photographer is the chance to leave the inside of four walls behind…

and explore…

Choosing those, rather than yet another place you could probably expect all the local photographers shoot at, makes the photos truly stand out! It is all driven by the fact that YOU are so unique – the location of the photo session should reflect YOU, be just like you, just right, matching your personality, extract the essence of your passion and business purpose.

"This is my time” said Elena,  Advance Skin Care and Beauty Specialist during her first personal branding portrait photo session with me. 

Our mission was to infuse Elena’s brand new website and social media platforms with beautiful commercial images that tell the story of her business, show who she is and what skin care services she is providing.

This creates a personal connection between herself and her audience, makes her services look more professional and enables her to build trustful, loyal and long-lasting relationships with her clients.

Justyna Outdoor Portrait Session- London & Brighton Portrait Photographer

December 2, 2017

I simply adore Autumn!

It’s one of the best time of the year for those beautiful and colorful OUTDOOR PORTRAIT SESSIONS! It comes as no surprise that’s one of the busiest time of the year for all photographers – especially those who find joy in exploring the world outside of their studios’ 4 walls, such as me. I’ve spent most of past weeks shooting multiple lifestyle family outdoor portraits (you HAVE to check my other blog posts ) as well as portraits of individuals among the greens, yellows and reds.
