Elena, Localgrapher in Oxford

Style:

My style is natural, soft, and heartfelt. I focus on real emotions, beautiful light, and capturing each person’s unique energy in a calm and supportive atmosphere.

Likes:

I love working with people. From the very beginning, I’ve been drawn to photographing human connection — capturing beauty, emotion, and personality through my lens. It brings me real joy to help people see themselves in a new light and create images they’ll truly treasure.

Recommended places:

Oxford is one of my favourite places to shoot — not only is it incredibly beautiful, but all the most iconic spots are just a short walk from each other. Radcliffe Camera, the Bridge of Sighs, the Sheldonian Theatre — and even a classic red phone box — are all right in the city centre, making it perfect for relaxed and varied photo walks. For family sessions, I often suggest University Parks. It’s spacious, green, and ideal for children to run around while we capture natural, joyful moments.

Languages spoken:

I speak English and Russian.
