What else do I need to know?

Duration and breaks
If required, the photo shooting session can be extended to get the best results and meet your expectations. After all, the most important thing is you, and you need to feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. The process can be tiring for both of us, so breaks are recommended (and are not included in the shooting duration).
Location
Whatever makes you feel comfortable: the park, your home, my cosy little studio. We can talk this through after getting in touch.
Outfits
Whatever makes you feel comfortable and expresses your personality. If you ask me, I recommend plain clothes so that we can focus on your face and your natural shape.

Kind words

Kind words from families Darina has photographed, shared with their permission.

“I was nervous about a newborn shoot with a ten-day-old, but Darina made the whole morning calm. She waited for him to settle, never rushed, and the photographs are the ones we'll keep forever.”

NinaNewborn session

“Cake everywhere, a very sticky one-year-old and a photographer laughing along with us. Darina caught the exact face he pulls when he's happy. Pure joy in every frame.”

JanetFirst birthday

“It meant a lot to work with a photographer who speaks our language and understood what we wanted for the family back home. The photographs travelled to Bulgaria and made everyone cry.”

AmaraFamily session

“I expected to stand in a corner for a few hours. Instead Darina got me and my daughter into a photo I look at every single day. Patient, kind and quietly brilliant.”

VaniaNewborn session

“Three generations in one afternoon and not one forced smile. Darina has a way of making everyone forget the camera is there. My daughter framed the one of me and the baby.”

AnastasiaFamily session

“Our Christmas photos came back in time for the cards and they were better than anything we've had done before. Warm, festive, and the kids actually enjoyed it.”

LoraChristmas session

“I didn't feel like myself at eight months, and Darina made me feel beautiful. She chose the light, the angles, everything. I cried when I saw them.”

TaniaPregnancy session

“Darina was everywhere and nowhere on our wedding day. Half the photographs we didn't know were being taken, and those are the ones we love most.”

LorenWedding

“I needed headshots that didn't look like headshots. Darina talked to me the whole time and the result is relaxed, professional and actually looks like me.”

MariaHeadshots

“My two never sit still and Darina didn't ask them to. She followed them through the park and came back with photographs that are completely them.”

FanyChildren's session

“This was our third session with Darina, newborn, first birthday and now a family shoot. Same care every time, and she remembers the children's names.”
