ANA GREGORIČ

a Top Lake Bled wedding photographer

 

A little about you

As a photographer, I am in constant search for the perfect light. I like being carried away by all the stories we encounter and love sharing them with you through photography. Every wedding is different and I enjoy showing that through my lenses. I feel honored to be able to catch all the emotions that come up when you least expect it, all the beauty and hard work that you put into creating one of the most important days in person’s life.

I finished my studies at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Ljubljana, where I received the Award for special artistic achievements. I work for several magazines such as Elle, and Grazia. Many clients in Slovenia trust me with their commercial work.

 

 

Your Style

A mixture of documentary and editorial look with a touch of fashion.

The Approach

I like to blend spontaneous moments with lifestyle editorial look.

I always try to move the subject into the best light or setting, but then let the story unfold naturally.

Expert Advice

Give the photographer enough time to capture what you care about. The wedding day is always too short and rushing will make it even shorter. I care about how the client feels and it’s essential that they feel comfortable and live fully in the moment.

ALEKS KUS

a Top Lake Bled wedding photographer

 

A little about you

Aleks Kus, a Slovenia destination wedding photographer from a country that has the Love in the middle of the name, called Slovenia, Europe. Together with my wife and soulmate, I compose a harmonic duo, traveling around the globe to tell the fantastic wedding stories of people in Love. Friendship has been holding us together since we were young – we used to play on the local playground as kids. Later in life, Love widened our friendship and formed an even deeper bond yielding two beautiful, now teenage daughters.

 

 

Your Style

I have been in the wedding photography business for more than 15 years, coming from a photojournalist background. My passion, professionalism, and Love for photography are results of mutual understanding and respect. You can see this through countless international awards and acknowledgments, but most importantly, through satisfied customers. Nowadays, we work in Slovenia and abroad, where we follow the story of one, two, or three-day-long weddings. Multi-day wedding celebrations are our big passion and a challenge that we gladly accept. On the other hand, small, intimate weddings are different types of challenges too. The bond between newlyweds, their family, and friends are even more distinct. In these special moments, it is not unusual for tears to fall from those who genuinely understand Love, tears of joy, and delight.

The Approach & Expert Advice

I see wedding photography as storytelling. It is my passion and my way of life. Wedding photography is about capturing moments of true affection between the bride and the groom, a moment that lasts forever. It is also about looking for witty glances between the guests, who might not see each other again once the wedding is over. This is why wedding photography is my visual legacy, which lasts an eternity and so much more. A wedding is a celebration, which leaves nobody emotionless. It is an experience, which does not only leave a lasting imprint on two people. A wedding is a mixture of emotions, which build and change our relationships, untying them along the way. That is why friends and family are such an important part of our lives and a significant part of wedding storytelling. Every wedding is unique and special in its own way. Your way. And every wedding photography tells its own story. Your story. In my way.” This approach to wedding photography puts even more responsibility on us, and at the same time brings us more joy, because it is simply our way of life.

BOŠTJAN JAMŠEK

a Top Lake Bled wedding photographer

A little about you

I am Boštjan Jamšek, a passionate and dedicated wedding photographer based in Slovenija. With a deep love for storytelling and a keen eye for capturing the authentic moments of your special day, I specialize in photojournalism and documentary photography. I believe that every wedding has a unique and beautiful narrative waiting to be told, and it’s my privilege to be the one to tell it through the lens of my camera.

My journey in photography began ten years ago, create memories that last a lifetime. Weddings have always fascinated me, not just for the glamour and beauty but for the genuine emotions and connections that unfold throughout the day. It’s these unscripted moments, the laughter, the tears, the stolen glances, and the raw emotions that make your wedding day truly yours. My approach is to be unobtrusive and let your day unfold naturally, capturing every nuance, every smile, and every tear, as they happen.

 

 

Your Style

Warm, alive & genuine. I like to infuse my photos with a rosy, sun-baked vibe which works really well for weddings as it tends to conjure up a relaxed, romantic vibe.

The Approach

My approach is intimate, friendly, and energetic. I think my energy allows my clients to relax and really enjoy their time in front of my camera…even if that’s not usually somewhere they feel comfortable. I genuinely adore what I do: giving my couples meaningful experiences and helping them make memories is a total joy. I’ll do everything to make you feel special every step of the way.

Expert Advice

Hiring the right wedding photographer is a crucial decision in ensuring that your special day is beautifully documented.

Here are some tips to consider:

Research Thoroughly: Take your time to research and view the portfolios of various photographers. Look for styles that resonate with you, whether it’s a preference for candid, documentary, or traditional photography.

Meet in Person: Arrange a meeting or video call with your potential photographer. It’s essential to build a rapport and ensure your personalities and visions align.

Review Full Wedding Galleries: Don’t just rely on highlights. Ask to see full wedding galleries to get a sense of their consistency and storytelling capabilities.

Discuss Your Vision: Be open with your photographer about your vision, the key moments you want to capture, and any specific requests you may have.

Ask About Experience: Inquire about their experience with different types of weddings and challenging situations. Experienced photographers are better equipped to handle unexpected issues.

Clear Communication: Ensure you have a clear contract outlining the services, timeline, costs, and delivery expectations. Discuss how they handle contingencies like bad weather.

Engagement Session: Consider scheduling an engagement session with your photographer. It’s an excellent opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera and establish a connection.

Trust Your Photographer: On the day of the wedding, trust your photographer’s expertise. Allow them to capture the candid moments while you enjoy your day.

Review Your Wedding Timeline: Share your wedding timeline with your photographer, so they can plan to be in the right place at the right time to capture the important moments.

Best Lake Bled location

Lake Bled is a beautiful and popular destination for weddings in Slovenia, known for its stunning natural scenery and the iconic Bled Island with its church. The best location in Lake Bled depends on your preferences and what you want to experience.

As a wedding photographer, I like Bled Castle and the church in the middle of the lake the most. Among other things, rowing a boat to the island is a unique experience for both couples and wedding guests. The path around the lake is also very photogenic. But I prefer to do the preparations and party at Hotel Bled or Bled Rose Hotel.

TAMARA VIDMAR

a Top Lake Bled wedding photographer

 

A little about you

I wouldn’t describe myself as a photographer, but rather as a hunter/seeker of precious moments. I am the one who loves late night conversations, a person who loves sincere laughter, the sound of waves, the sea, sunrise and sunset. A quick, unexpected trip to the mountains or to the coast and a long walk with my dearests really make my day. I love meeting people who are warm, authentic and full of deep stories. People, who are as in love with life as I am – and that is why I like looking through the eyes of the camera and capturing precious moments that will last forever. My true nature is perceiving and revealing the best in every person and I use my camera to make those genuine moments remain in infinity. Not only do I strive for technically perfect photos – I love to add value producing a piece of art that makes you stop and feel the vibrancy of the captured moment and the feelings attached to it.

Life is beautiful only if we see it that way – so let’s meet and create an unforgettable story together.

 

 

Your Style

My style is romantic, gentle, sensual and spontaneous. I love hidden moments, which are invisible to most people, however they ultimately make up a unique story. My photos are relaxed – I try to stay invisible beside every couple to catch their most intimate, spontaneous moments. The most important thing is to catch the dynamic of every couple – some are gentle, others funny, and it’s on me to adapt to their personalities while still maintaining my style.

The Approach

I focus on making my couples feel relaxed and confident in front of my lens. I like to show them some photos in between the photoshoot, so they can feel a little more self-conscious, when they see how beautiful the photos turned out. I want to achieve intimate photos so I try them to behave as if I am not around – this way the photos are a lot more authentic, unique and I can really capture their energy.

Expert Advice

The most important thing is to choose a photographer with whom you personally connect. It is true that the photos are important, but they won’ be as beautiful if you as a couple cannot relax in front of the photographer.  I always like to meet the couple in advance so we can get to know each other personally. The weddings can be stressful and it is the most important thing to have a wedding planner and a photographer you can trust.

Best Lake Bled location

I think the most perfect spot for wedding photography is on a boat called »pletna« – preferably in a sunset. When you are away from everyone else and the couple can enjoy themselves. There they can listen to the sound of the waves and observe the beautiful Lake Bled, which is one of the most popular wedding destinations in our beautiful country.
