About
Hi, I’m Tamara!
For me, photography was a way of finding my way back to myself. After years in the film world I started rediscovering the things that have made me happy since childhood, and photography was one of them. I soon realised I had found something that doesn’t just help me switch off, but recharges me even after the longest, most tiring days. Since then I feel more and more that this is how I can best express the way I see the world.
I have always been more interested in what lies beneath the surface: people’s stories, small gestures, unspoken feelings, and the special beauty that appears when someone can truly be themselves. I love showing how beautiful we can be when we connect with ourselves and with each other.
My approach is documentary: I look for spontaneity, honest gestures and the small details that make a story truly personal. My aim is not for you to pose perfectly or to match some imagined picture. You don’t need to be photogenic, and you don’t need to know what to do with your hands in front of the camera. What matters more to me is that you feel good, relax, and get photos in which you truly recognise yourself.
My studies in psychology also shape how I approach people. I am especially interested in self-knowledge, how relationships work and how we can truly connect with each other. It matters to me that my shoots have a safe, accepting and relaxed atmosphere where you don’t have to play a role.
At weddings I feel closest to couples who don’t want a perfectly choreographed day, but a celebration that is really about them. Alongside the big, moving moments I am just as interested in the quieter, spontaneous ones: small glances, carefree laughter and everything that makes a wedding truly your story.
This curiosity and interest in human connection also gave birth to szeretet projekt: a special, experience-based couples shoot where conversations, self-knowledge and tuning in to each other matter as much as the photos. I believe that sometimes a well-asked question or a shared moment can bring us closer than we would think.
Outside photography I love being in nature, hiking, travelling, discovering new places and getting lost in deep conversations. I feel close to art, psychology, music and communities where people turn to each other with openness, acceptance and attention. I like to keep my childlike curiosity, playfulness and the joy of discovering the world.
Whether it is the honest, intimate moments of a wedding or discovering a shared story in szeretet projekt, the same thing guides me: I don’t want to make perfect pictures, but pictures where real feelings, stories and human connection live.
I photograph weddings and couples in Budapest, across Hungary and throughout Europe.
If you would rather live your moments than act them out, I would love to meet you!
Tamara
