An absolute gem!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Eszter twice now, and let me tell you—she’s an absolute gem! We did a couple of portrait sessions together, and from start to finish, her creativity and professionalism were just next-level. The whole experience was not only unforgettable but also so much fun! Eszter has this amazing way of making you feel comfortable while capturing those real, authentic moments. If you’re looking for a photographer who brings joy to the process and delivers stunning results, she’s your person!

Wear something that feels like you! Whether it’s a sleek outfit or something cosy and casual, the key is to feel comfortable and confident. Coordinating colours can look great, but don’t overthink it—this is all about capturing your personality. If there’s an outfit that makes you feel like a rockstar, go for it!

Don’t worry! Most people feel a bit unsure at first, but I’ll guide you through the session with simple, natural prompts that make you feel relaxed. My goal is to capture the real you—those spontaneous, authentic moments where you’re comfortable and having fun. There’s no pressure to perform; we’re just here to have a good time!

Sessions typically last 60 to 90 minutes, but I like to keep things easygoing and flexible. This gives us enough time to settle in and let your personality shine. There’s no rush—we’ll move at a pace that feels right so we can capture all the best moments without any stress.

We can shoot anywhere that feels right for you! Whether it’s your favourite spot in the city, a cosy corner of your home, or an outdoor location that inspires you, I’m all about finding the perfect place where you feel at ease. We’ll create a setting that reflects who you are and brings out your best side.

Absolutely not! I’m all about capturing natural, unposed moments. I’ll give you light direction, but the best portraits happen when you’re simply being yourself. No stiff poses here—just real, relaxed moments that showcase your personality.

Yes, totally! Bringing props can add a personal touch to your session, whether it’s something meaningful or just a fun accessory. Got a favourite book, instrument, or quirky hat? Let’s incorporate it! These little details help tell your story in a unique and fun way.

Absolutely! If having someone special or a furry friend by your side makes the session more fun for you, let’s do it. Including others can help you feel more relaxed and add an extra layer of personality to your portraits.

No worries! If we plan an outdoor session and the weather doesn’t play nice, we can reschedule or switch to an indoor location. Flexibility is key, and I want to make sure your session is perfect, rain or shine.

I know you’re excited to see the final results! I’ll send you a sneak peek within a few days, and the full gallery will be ready within 2 to 3 weeks. Each image will be carefully edited to bring out the best in every shot.

My style is all about capturing the real, unfiltered you. No stiff, formal poses—just authentic, beautiful moments that reflect your unique personality. I want your portraits to feel emotional, fun, and true to who you are. It’s all about celebrating your individuality in the most natural way possible.

Just show up ready to have fun! There’s no need to overthink it. Bring a positive vibe and any outfits or props that make you feel amazing, and we’ll take it from there. My goal is to make the session relaxed and enjoyable so you can be yourself.

My focus is on capturing the real, authentic moments that show your personality in its truest form. It’s not about stiff poses or forced smiles—it’s about you feeling comfortable and having fun. I create an experience that’s as enjoyable as the final photos, so you walk away with portraits that feel as unique and special as you are.
