Wedding and portrait photographer in Dubai

My name is Sergio Russo— for the last 10 years i am a wedding photographer up to the very roots of one’s being.

I like documentary style of wedding photo when things are going their own way and my purpose is to capture such moments with no interruption. In other words, i am totally against taking the opportunity to change the way people are doing or not doing something (for sure excluding the portrait part of your day). I strongly believe this is not fair to make any interruptions for a simple reason — this is your wedding, your guests and your moments of life. Moreover, i do see the beauty of the moment on its own — this skill is my valuable asset. 

You will get the whole story of your wedding, that i have written for you with my vision. Being funny or sensual, touching or sad, or even a bit weird or scary — all these moment are the parts of your wedding. Moreover, THIS IS the wedding. Natural emotions. Glances full of Love. Tears of Happiness.

Secrets of portrait photo session in Dubai

As a craft that is equal parts art and science, portrait photography is all about capturing the uniqueness of individuals. Sergio Russo, a premier Dubai photographer, possesses a remarkable ability to frame each person’s individuality in his portraits. Here are some of his best tips for successful posing in portrait photography.

Sergio believes that every individual has a unique story to tell, and his goal as a Dubai photographer is to translate that story into a photograph. The first step in this process is to establish a genuine connection with the subject. Understanding their interests, passions, and personality is crucial to capturing their individuality. Sergio starts each session with a conversation, encouraging his subjects to share about themselves to make them feel comfortable and valued.

Posing and creativity while capturing portraits

As a photographer in Dubai, Sergio emphasizes the importance of natural and relaxed poses. He advises against rigid or forced poses, as they often appear artificial and do not truly reflect the subject’s personality. Instead, he encourages his subjects to be themselves, to move naturally and freely. This approach often results in more genuine and engaging portraits that genuinely capture a person’s spirit.

Feeling the mood and experimenting with angles 

Another tip from Sergio Russo revolves around the use of angles. Experimenting with different angles can significantly change the mood and feel of a portrait. A low angle can make a subject appear dominant or powerful, while a high angle can make them seem more approachable or vulnerable. As a versatile Dubai photographer, Sergio continually adjusts his angles during a shoot, always looking for the best way to express his subject’s individuality.

Portraits that make you shine

Ultimately, successful portrait photography is about more than just the right poses and angles. It’s about capturing the essence of a person — their personality, their emotions, their individuality. And that’s what Sergio Russo does best. Whether you’re looking for a portrait photographer in Dubai to capture your personal story or to create lasting memories with your loved ones, Sergio Russo has the expertise and the passion to bring your vision to life.
