About Photo to Remember by Magda Creosteanu

Hello, kind soul!

My husband and I are now photo-videographers, working as a team both in life and in business. This means you have both services covered (photo+video), or two photographers or two videographers at once, for the price of one if you only want photo or only video. But we haven't always been photo-videographers. If we had known it was this wonderful and that we’d enjoy it so much, we would have started sooner! 😊 We worked for 22 and 32 years respectively in a multinational corporation. During that time, we asked ourselves a few times: WHAT do I leave behind? Not for my immediate family, as that’s a different discussion. No. What footprint do I leave on other people’s lives? In fact, do I leave one at all? What do I contribute so that someone feels better?

For a while, I liked that what my team and I produced in that corporation brought order, clarity, logic, predictability, and efficiency to the work of many colleagues across all departments. Then I saw that those documents changed quickly, were updated, canceled, and replaced by others—with a life just as ephemeral, with authors just as fleeting in the organizational chart.

And the question returned: HOW do I make a difference for someone?

Only now, when our professional paths transformed without us necessarily seeking it, when everything flowed from one thing to another until we ended up creating event photo and video with such love, did we find the answer. We found it because we weren't the first to realize it. We found it because it sprang from the soul of a mother for whose baby's baptism we did photo and video; it took the form of written words and was shown to us:

“Good day and happy birthday! I haven’t managed to write to you until now because only last night and today did we watch the video and photos. Everything turned out so beautifully, I love it so much, but the interviews, oh my... you took us through every emotion, we laughed, we cried, we relived some unique moments, and for that, we thank you so very much. Kisses and hugs!”

I can show you the screenshot, so you don't think it's not true :)

It seems that the way we take photos and shoot films touches the soul of the person receiving them; it brings a wave of emotions. Joy. Beauty. Youth. Love. Mirth. Humor. Tears. Peals of laughter. And the emotions remain the same and even enrich over time, years and years later. They remain in their heart, enriched with nostalgia and tenderness, they stay in the memory of the whole family, and they will be passed on to the child who won't even have truly known us. Isn't that great?

And for it to turn out this way, we put all our best into our photos and films. Honesty. Communication. Involvement. Creativity. Naturalness. Mystery. Passion. We put in everything we are, our principles and values, our humor and our mistakes. We put into them everything we’ve learned from life, everything we learned before being photo-videographers, working in a multicultural and competitive environment, and what we learned on our bike trips, pedaling hundreds of kilometers through surprising places and in unexpected conditions.

We love to the max photographing and filming happiness, the smile felt in the heart and the loving gaze into the depths of the other. In our photos and films, we show things that sometimes our people might not even realize how they look in their daily lives: the love between them, their beauty, their harmony, their strength, and their fragility. We make every photo and every film just as we would like them to be made for us. Every person we work with is unique, every event is different, so every photo and every film is one-of-a-kind. Every person and every event puts our creativity to work. Every photo and every film must say something.

I won't bore you with the technical details of what we offer. We can talk about that separately if you are interested.

I can tell you this:

•Our packages are personalized for each person, depending on what they want, and we "tailor" several variants together, as realistic as possible and close to their budget, so they can choose what suits them best.
•For packages that involve our presence for at least 5 hours at the restaurant, we conduct interviews with a few of your loved ones. This is one of our "signatures of originality." The interviews bring a lot of emotion, many surprises, and generate a special dynamic for the big film.
•If you are the extroverted type, we also film vows 😉
•We have collaborations with various small female entrepreneurs who produce/provide services in the event industry (from sweets, cakes, to photo booths), and through us, you benefit from discount vouchers for these products/services.
•The number of photos is not limited, but I assure you it is large 😊 For example, just for a baptism at church, we deliver at least 500 edited photos.
•The film is in Full HD format and you can receive 2 versions - long (covering as much as possible of what happens that day) and short (a few minutes summarizing everything).
•We have specialized in documentary-style filming and editing, narrating people's stories through images so you don't miss any important moment of everything that happens on your big day. Without too much direction (this doesn't mean we won't guide you if you need it), relying mostly on authenticity and spontaneity, because the most beautiful photos and the sincerest looks are the ones you don't even know are being captured by someone, right?
•The photography style is natural, without filters, with colors as realistic and close to the truth as possible.
•We do photo sessions, but also video sessions.
•We make photo albums, also totally personalized, where you have the possibility to write messages by hand on the pages/next to the most important photos for you, printed messages that become an integral part of your album.

What do you think so far? I’m waiting for us to talk more, to find out exactly what you need, and to find the best solutions together.

Hugs to you, reader, and hugs to you, future bride, future groom, mom-to-be or not yet, wherever you may be! Have great days, take care of yourselves, and have a Photo to Remember!
