We're Kacper and Mariola — married, and married to this craft. We photograph the way we live: side by side, finishing each other's sentences and each other's shot lists. You aren't hiring two vendors. You're inviting a trusted couple into the most intimate rooms of your life.
“Two people who already love each other understand love when they see it. We don't have to guess at the moment — we recognize it.”
The result is a comfort you can feel in the photographs. Guests relax around a couple instead of a crew. Private moments stay private. And every chapter of your day — getting ready on both sides, the ceremony from two hearts, the dance floor from two angles — is covered without a single moment staged.
An editorial body of work, divided the way a film is — by the kind of story being told. Begin with the wedding; it's where our hearts live.

Kacper — 35mm WideMariola — 85mm TightA wedding isn't a checklist — it's an arc. Here is how a single documentary day unfolds, frame by frame, exactly as it happened.
Lace on the chair. A grandmother's ring. A vow letter in a shaking hand. We arrive early and stay invisible — the best frames of the morning are the ones no one notices us taking.

He turns. The hand goes to the mouth. Mariola is on his face; Kacper is on the space between them. This is the frame you'll frame — and we caught it from both sides of the feeling.

We don't interrupt a vow for a better angle. We let the words land and we're already there — the clasp of hands, the tear that betrays the steady voice.

A father's voice cracks. The table erupts. Candles, clinking glass, a laugh that travels the whole room — documentary photography at its most alive.

Sparklers up, two people laughing through the dark. We end the day the way it deserves — in motion, in light, in joy that didn't need a single instruction.

Every commission includes hand-retouched, high-resolution images delivered through a private, secure online gallery with full print rights. Contracts and gallery are handled natively through Pixieset.
Kacper leads the wide story; Mariola lives in the details. You get both sides of getting ready, both hearts at the altar — without ever adding a stranger to the room.
A focused, character-driven session — portrait, senior, graduate or branding. 15–20 hand-retouched, high-resolution images.

We measure our work by the way it's remembered. Here's what a few of our couples sent back — unprompted, unedited, the way we like it.
They disappeared into the day so completely that half the time we forgot they were there — and somehow they caught every single moment that mattered. The gallery made us cry, then laugh, then cry again.
