KINGA LEFTSKA -
PROFESSIONAL COUPLES PHOTOGRAPHER BASED IN VENICE ITALY / EUROPE

HOW DID LIFE MAKE ME BECOME A PHOTOGRAPHER?

Becoming a professional photographer in Venice was not something I chose. Photography more or less chose me. 

I got my very first film camera as a teen as I used to be into travel photography back then. I was only taking photographs free of a human element in it however, would you believe? It wasn’t until taking this one accidental photo in Croatia ages ago that I would ever think of actually photographing people at all. That day, my ‘perfect’ landscape frame got literally photobombed by a random elderly couple holding hands. What my camera later developed changed my entire view on photography and well,  it transformed my life. From that moment on, I could not imagine a perfect photograph without people in it. This is how my journey of a professional couples and wedding photography started.

Then I fell in love. The art of human photography became even more magical…

WHAT I LOVE

• my man who always makes me laugh and makes me feel better no matter how sad I am • travelling back to Japan every year • hot summer days in Tuscan countryside • cycads • birds chirping on my balcony • the feeling I get when traveling to a place I have never been to yet • couples who make each other laugh • Sicilian brioche al pistacchio • Paolo Sorrentino and Wes Anderson • creating images for others to love • the sound of Italian streets in the morning • Van Gogh • pasta & wine • swimming naked in the ocean • ambient and piano music • hiking in the breathtaking Italian Dolomites •

WHERE YOU CAN FIND ME

I am based out of beautiful and mysterious Venice, serving all areas of Italy including Tuscany, the Dolomites, Florence, Rome, Amalfi Coast, Sardinia, Verona & Garda Lake, Milan & Como Lake and more. Apart from the Apennine Peninsula you can often find me all around the globe. Fell free to inquire a photo session anywhere you want, whether it’s meant to be in Europe, US, Canada, Asia or elsewhere. I’ll be more than happy to pack my camera and follow you around the world.
