Legend on basketball court before & legend behind the decks now 🔥🏀🔥 - Had an absolute pleasure shooting DJ Diesel aka Shaq on a Saturday night. Always liked music project of Shaq and grateful that I could experience it live while getting photos done. Always good to see that something I’ve done for the past 5 years is growing and providing more opportunities in life. So much energy, great experience, great set and so glad it could be organised with help of the @jeromyrosario_ . - - - #flashphotography #portraitshot #lightup #shaq #photographyclub #clubphotography #marqueenightclub #photography📸 #stagephotography #nightlifephotography #photographyworld #nightclubphotography #photographystyle #photographysydney #visualphotography #coolphotography #my_style #photography #sonyphotography #instaphotography #sydney

Slava Nikiforov - “Word Catcher” They look the same, sound the same… but feel different. Had one of those moments recently that stuck with me. You’re surrounded by people who speak the same language, share similar backgrounds, same jokes, same references - everything should feel familiar. But it doesn’t. It’s in the small things. The way people show up for each other. The way they treat someone who’s new, out of place, or just trying to find their footing. Same words, different meaning behind them. And it made me realise how much culture isn’t about where you’re from and what language you speak - it’s about values. About how you were raised to treat people, especially when there’s nothing to gain from it. No right or wrong here. Just different. @nikiforov.standup , по-братски кнопку «Перевести» нажми, Самсунг всё переведет 😂 #standupkz #slavanikiforov #storytellingphotography #eventphotography #photographermelbourne

“Not good enough” - The quote that breaks a lot of people. I’m not an exception, that’s one of the main reasons why my Insta page became empty. I’ve never curated my feed to be perfect, knowing that it’ll make posting harder for me and look at this, I still found a way to stop doing it. All it took was one simple thought - “not good enough” I’m still taking tonnes of photos. Only in March I delivered roughly 3000 photos. Don’t get me, quantity is not always quality, I agree but “not good enough” in 3000 photos, that’s kind of impossible statistically. I’m sure that a lot of you experience the same feeling about your art, your craft and your anything. I just want you to know, you’re not alone in this and I want you to ask yourself one simple question. What if it’s actually good enough?

главное воспоминание 2025 года 💚 в очередной раз хочу сказать спасибо всем, кто сделал этот день таким волшебным. о лучшем окружении и лучшей свадьбе я и мечтать не могла вот они слева направо: @mmm_durdom и @chetin__ , взявшие на себя самую сложную роль – быть нашей опорой и поддержкой в этом нелегком мероприятии. зэ бэст бэст мэн и мэйд оф онор @dydy.pasha , который сделал то, что у него получается лучше всего – долго пиз… говорил и @justinlovevic , наш селебрант, который с радостью это позволил @kobzarto ewanjinks, снимавшие все это безобразие @vmshtr , который потом монтировал эти гигабайты и терпел мои придирки @perova_not_petrova , сделавшая нам кучу шикарных фото @sasha__true , которая наколдовала такую красоту на моем лице и голове @dj_enote , просидевший весь день в будке, руководя музыкой наша семья, которая помимо того, что нас создала, так еще выступила в роли кейтеринга: @olessya_voblikova @andreyshipulin @elena_shipulina_ @voblikovvitaliy (он поддерживал моральный дух) и @julia_domrina , которая создала не меня, а мою мэйд оф онор, и тоже помогала в кейтеринге @katrina_shipulina , которая также на себя взяла две роли: быть прекрасной сестрой и хранителем трансляции @glasshausdesign , предоставившие восхитительный венью моей мечты @spotswoodflorist , сделавшие красивейший букет и прочие цветы Gotham Doughnuts и @omgdonuts.australia , которые стали для нас заменой свадебного торта а также всем-всем-всем нашим гостям. вас тэгать не буду, а то это никогда не кончится, вы и так знаете, что вы лучшие и конечно же, моему самому лучшему в мире мужу @dashi.dan

I thought that I’m an introvert. At some point of my life I was like “Man, I’m definitely an introvert. Yeah I like talking to people sometimes but it drains my energy” If you know me well enough you’d say that I’m crazy saying something like this. Cause I love being in the crowd and my line of work is literally talking to people and being surrounded by them most of the time. So, when I brought this to psychologist while complaining that I don’t have energy even though I spend most of my time alone (that was during Covid). She responded something like this: :”yeah, no shit. You used to talk to 50-100 different people during the day at your bar and photo jobs, doing some stupid things like setting bar on fire to get attention and now it’s gone.” It was more professional though but I just can’t recall every single word now. That’s when I figured out that I get more energy when I spend time with people and all started making sense. Sometimes we create problems for ourselves by simply thinking the wrong kind of shit. Oh, of course. Book your shoots, so I can talk to you all :) #photographer #photographyinmelbourne #melbournephotoshoot #melbournephotographer #storytelling #storyofmylife😂 #portraitphoto #portraitmelbourne #melbourneartists

Portraits aren’t just photos of faces. They’re explosions of whatever’s hiding inside. Whether it’s chaos, beauty, doubt, fire, all of it. Sometimes I think the camera’s just an excuse to open the cage and let the demons out for a second, so they don’t eat you alive later. Emotions feed the shot. Fear, joy, rage, or peace. It doesn’t matter which one, as long as it’s real. That’s why I chase portraits the way I do. Because when someone drops the mask, even for a split second, that’s when the photo breathes. It’s messy, it’s raw, and it’s perfect.

PAX was on my list since the day I watched Indie Game: The Movie. Saw a dev in a huge crowd, showing their game, and something in me just snapped — I knew I had to be there one day. Fast forward to my first PAX, and holy shit, it was everything. The lines? Endless. The noise? Overwhelming. The chaos? Perfect. I didn’t even care — I was walking into a dream I’d been holding for 7 years, and suddenly it was real. Screens blasting trailers, smoke in the air, people yelling, people laughing, random strangers becoming teammates in minutes. That’s the thing about PAX — you don’t just go to see games. You go to get swallowed up by it, to feel that insane mix of passion, creativity, and pure nerd joy hitting you from every corner. From the first moment, I knew — this is my place. And every time I come back, it feels like falling in love all over again. Dreams do come true — this year, I’m stepping in as accredited media and I can’t wait to capture all the magic, chaos, and joy through my lens. #pax #paxaus #paxaustralia #photographermelbourne #portrait_vision #eventphotography #melbournephotography #melbournephoto

I had no plan B. So plan A got overcooked. This shoot? Everything was kinda against me. The light was trash, location wasn’t working out, and I honestly thought it’d be a waste of time. So I said screw it and went hard on edits. No rules, just instincts. And weirdly enough… now this set is one of my favourites. That imposter voice? Still there. That feeling of “this ain’t really me”? Still creeps in. But if this project taught me anything, it’s that pushing through the crap often brings you to gold. You’re not always gonna feel like you’re “the one.” But if you keep showing up, you’ll become the one that delivers. If you’re down to shoot something raw, emotional or just off-the-rails fun — hit me up. I’ve got a few spots open in both Sydney and Melbourne for portraits, promo or personal sessions.
