Romantic, mood-driven photography for couples and solo travelers who love a cinematic feel

A Different Way to Experience a Photoshoot in Vienna

Alongside my signature airy and bright edited sessions, I offer Cinematic Photoshoots — a curated storytelling experience for clients who are drawn to cinematic, moodier tones, and a more documentary, atmospheric feel.

These sessions are intentionally slower, more observational, and focused on emotion, movement, and mood, rather than polished perfection. Using my Fujifilm camera and in-camera film simulations, the images are crafted to feel timeless, cinematic, and deeply personal.

If you love imagery that feels like a still from a film — honest, romantic, and story-driven — this experience may be for you.

(If you prefer light, airy, and refined editing, my signature sessions are likely the better fit.)

Cinematic Photography in
the Heart of Vienna

Vienna’s architecture, light, and atmosphere make it the perfect backdrop for cinematic storytelling. A cinematic photoshoot allows you to:

  • Tell your story through mood and light — images that feel like scenes, not poses

  • Capture real emotion and connection — natural movement over direction-heavy posing

  • Create editorial-quality imagery — curated for atmosphere, consistency, and story

  • Enjoy a guided but unhurried experience — with thoughtful location and styling advice

Cinematic photography isn’t just about how the images look — it’s about how the experience feels.

I frequently work with professional photographers in my business. Mila is exceptional - she has the eye of an artist. She is an example of someone who goes the extra mile! She was responsive in communications before and after the shoot. I loved the images in her portfolio, and knew we would be in good hands! At the shoot, she provided directions on how to pose and knew many incredible spots in Vienna to shoot. It was our first day in Vienna, so we actually toured so many incredible spots for the first time with her - an unexpected bonus to booking this shoot. She turned around a beautiful product and sent our images to us the same day. Mila is an incredibly talented photographer and sees a vision for you beyond what you think the picture will be. She is great and honestly, we feel lucky to have found her!

FAQ

Do I get all the photos from my session?

Cinematic sessions are curated for storytelling, not full coverage. You receive only the images that best tell your story in a cinematic, film-inspired style.

Can I combine cinematic photography with my signature airy & bright images?

Yes! You can choose an upgrade to add your signature airy & bright edits if you love that look.

Where do we shoot in Vienna?

I select locations based on your story, whether that’s romantic city streets, iconic landmarks, or hidden gems for cinematic effect.

How long does it take to receive my photos and videos?

Photos are delivered in a curated online gallery, and cinematic video reels are delivered in 1080p Full HD, typically within 2–3 weeks, depending on the package.

How far in advance should I book a Vienna photographer?

It’s best to book your Vienna photographer at least 3 –4 weeks in advance, especially during spring, summer, and Christmas when Vienna is most popular with travelers. For weekends and peak travel seasons, earlier booking (2-3 months in advance) is recommended to secure availability.

How is cinematic photography different from your signature airy & bright style?

My signature style is light, airy, and romantic, with a larger selection of hand-edited images and a complete visual record of the session.

Cinematic photography is a more curated, artistic approach. Fewer images are delivered, with deeper tones, intentional contrast, and a stronger focus on storytelling and feeling rather than quantity.

Both styles are finished and intentional — they simply tell the story in different ways.

Who are cinematic photoshoots best suited for?

Cinematic sessions are perfect for:

  • Couples who love a moody, romantic aesthetic

  • Solo travelers who want editorial-style portraits

  • Creatives and storytellers

  • Anyone drawn to film, atmosphere, and emotional imagery

If you love feeling over perfection, cinematic storytelling may be right for you.

What should we wear for a cinematic photoshoot?

Soft textures, neutral or earthy tones, and flowing fabrics work beautifully for cinematic imagery. After booking, you’ll receive a personalized outfit and styling guide, and I’m always happy to help you choose looks that fit the mood and location.

I’m camera-shy — will this still feel natural?

Absolutely. Cinematic sessions are guided but relaxed. I’ll gently direct you when needed, but the focus is on movement, connection, and real moments rather than stiff posing.

Most clients tell me the session feels more like a walk or experience than a photoshoot.

Can cinematic photoshoots be booked for commercial projects?

Cinematic sessions listed here are for personal use only.
For brand campaigns, commercial content, or professional projects, please inquire via email with details about your vision.

I’m not sure which style to choose — can you help?

Of course. If you’re unsure whether a cinematic or signature session fits you best, I’m happy to guide you during your consultation. Together we’ll choose the option that best reflects your story, personality, and how you want to remember this moment.
