Candid Moments - {Iaroslava Petrenko Photography}

It didn't just happen that I love photojournalism in wedding photography. I believe my background in documentary making kicks in when I'm present at a moment of life as an observer, a storyteller... Finding that unique angle from which a story can be told is what defines my purpose. Finding the angle from which to show the essence of the moment is what I am always searching for.
Flipping through the images on my camera, I am often looking to see if I was able to catch a true smile, a moment of genuine happiness...  When I find them, I become excited - I know I am connected and that the story will be told beautifully.

Below are a few moments from Beverly and Lonnie's wedding (to be continued...)

Baby Love - Photo-shoot with Frederica {Iaroslava Petrenko Photography}

It rained, rained and rained.. I almost lost hope of taking pictures of my beautiful niece while visiting her at the cottage. And then, just before my departure, the sun broke through the sky... and it was amazing!
