Three passions

For those who are new to my page, allow me to introduce myself: I am Elly Dream. Alenka. A contemporary portrait photographer and a Mom. Three passions drive my life:

Family

Number one is definitely a family. Not just my own: any Family is beautifully sacred to me. I am first a mom, and, just like you, ready to bend over backwards for those I love. And I do. The bending. Just like you, girl ;) Family, its legacy, is what filling everything that I do with meaning. Some of the little hacks we find on a way through this family journey - I like to share, to save you the time that I already spent searching for it myself.

Art

Number two is - Art. Flowing strokes of paint, sharp streaks of drawing, architectural lines of sculpture, intricate play of words in favorite works of literature, magical sounds of music, impactful theatrical performances - all of those aspects of culture unique to humans - both ancient and modern - inspire, give me solace, bring fascination and help me understand and express things dear to me.  And its meaning doubles when I get to share it with the kids. Feel free to use it, girl, if your kiddos could benefit from it too. 

Quest of Learning

Number three is my never ending quest of learning. Almost anything, from sports to business, but in particular - history. Always at it.

Family Historian.

Photography brings them altogether. I like to call myself a Family Historian on an endless quest to learn and capture, preserve life’s most precious valuables: our love for our children, our special family milestones, the real personalities that make the ones we love so unique and so special to us!! In an artistic way :)).

In my images, I strive to capture children to looking authentic, and mom… her absolute best. Through the eyes of those who love her - you! - so much... Capturing not just the look, but the special connection, the love, the tenderness, the overwhelming desire to shield our little ones from the bad and open their hearts wide to every magically wonderful surprise that world has to offer!!!

Perfecting the headshot!

My current emphasis is on headshots: they really allow me to isolate and refine the lighting skills, little posing hacks that take looking people good - a long way; and, most importantly, getting true personality - getting live, confident and irresistibly attractive expressions. Still - uniquely yours :))

1.fill (someone) with the urge or ability to do or feel something, especially to do something creative.
synonyms:
stimulate, motivate, cause, incline, persuade, encourage, influence, rouse, move, stir, spur (on), goad, energize, galvanize, incite, impel


Please read every single one of those: you are every single one of those… and so much more. Not just to me - I am sure so many will add their name below these synonyms - when they stand next to yours. And add their own ones: support, understand, explain, help, advise, act, just be there. Also teach - though, mostly, with your own actions, positivity, attitude, energy, choices.

No, not just to me. But especially to me.

Thank you for being a such an incredible part of my life. One of its best parts. Most cherished, exciting. Inspiring.
True blessing.

Happy Birthday!!!
The selfportrait at the top is my most recent headshot practice test. What do you think?

Your turn! What drives YOU?

Most importantly, what gets you going? What gives you a reason to get out of bed in the morning? What's your passion, what is the reason behind everything that you do?

Come back to share my progress, as my skills evolve - and share what gets you going, what drives you, what makes you get up in the morning!  Would love to hear those!
