Daphne and Garry, honeymoon in Rome Italy
The life is getting more and more international for me and my friends from wedding studio mongooses.tv. Try to imagen the following situtaion. Me, being a Belarussian-born photographer with polish routs, was flying from Warsaw to Rome where I was to meet Daphne and Harry, a sweet couple from Hong Kong, who currently work in London and Zurich.
Rome was the place of their wedding tour. For any wedding photographer such an interesting couple is a real treasure. «The photos are amazing»— the first email I received from my new friends after I had sent them the pics. We had a nice the-whole-day-long photo shoot. Enjoy

Today in my inbox I found a very exciting email. «Liebe/r Artur Jakutsevich Herzlichen Glückwunsch! Ihr Bild wurde heute zum «Foto des Tages» auf Fotografenpara.de gewählt. Das Team der Fotografenpara.de gratuliert zu dieser tollen Leistung!» – they wrote. Amazingly cool!
Therefore I’d like to great Olga & Sergey Pozharnye! Without the energy and positive vibrations that x-rays this couple it wouldn’t have been possible for me even to dream of such a victory. The only thing to do for me was to catch the moments.
I’m convinced that the result of any perfect photo session depends on the photographer’s ability to find common language with the people he works with. I happy enough and luck as well, because all couples I’ve ever worked with are sincere and easy-going.
My colleagues and just strangers interested in my works often ask me about the way I find our couples. I always tell them the following story. 5 years ago when I was a young camera man I faced a real dilemma: quantity with all these alike pictures or to follow my personal view and to catch the moments of love and make the emphasis on the quality. My choice was obvious.
The way they find me is and how we start our communication and further co-operation is not a secret as well. We feel each other. Practice shows an interesting fact: 99 out of 100 which does not start their e-mails with the How-much-questions and any other money issue are the ones I work with in future. People are interested in wedding photography not in figures. This method we have developed in Mongooses.tv. Our team is a strong union of creative people who starve with desire to narrate in photos and video about interesting wedding.
Every couple has the right to be unique and to have unique wedding with unique wed project. In order to see our portfolio, please follow the link: Vimeo. On stay tuned with help of fb.com
Anna&Rene Love Story in Prague
Summer 2011 was full of work. New places, new faces. Love Stories and Weddings all over the Europe: Warsaw, Prague, Dresden, Rome, Barcelona and other cities. In July I got acquainted with Anna and Rene – two curly haired Poles. They amazed me at first sight. Feelings and their Love were shining. It was an extremely easy-going couple to work with. Sometimes Anna and Rene we so deep in the moment that I felt that they simply didn’t notice me at all. Therefore all the photos are true to life. Enjoy!
David&Veronica. Best love story moments in Prague
Last summer I discovered a lot of new places in Prague as well as got to know many new and very interesting people. Among them Veronica and David. This couple is extremely unique. They smile all the time. It seems to me that even their hearts have the same bit pattern. Amazingly funny on the on hand they are very romantic on the other. For any photographer such a couple is a real strike. 
Panya + Anya, prewedding photos in Czech
This year the winter in Czech is very mild. My new friends Panya and Anya had a strong desire to make winter photos. Therefore we set off to one of the biggest lakes in Czech – Mahovo Lake. The weather was amazing: sunny and a bit frosty. The lake was covered with ice. Some brave youngsters were skating around. But we didn’t feel like doing some extreme that day, although there were a lot of opportunities. Our may target was to have a calm walk and to make first photos to the prewedding photo set.
And World Is Not Enough

wedding photo of the day
Early in the morning I received an email:
«Liebe/r Artur Jakutsevich Herzlichen Glückwunsch!Ihr Bild wurde heute zum «Foto des Tages» auf Fotografenpara.de gewählt.Das Team der Fotografenpara.de gratuliert zu dieser tollen Leistung! www.fotografenpara.de »
“Dear Artur Jakutsevich, we are glad to announce you that your photo has been chosen to “Photo of the day category”. The team of the Fotografenpara.de congratulates you! www.fotografenpara.de“
I got registered on this web-site only some days ago. And already the most popular wedding of 2011 on the net was awarded a price!
Frankly speaking I was not surprised, since the wedding of Katja and Kirill did not leave indifferent anyone who saw it. By the way Kirill made his own version of photo slide-show. Follow the link to see it. I must say it’s worthy seeing.
Kate+Kirill, most positive wedding in 2011
Brest is my home-town, therefore it’s always a pleasure for me to come to work there. One more time I got convinced in the fact, that actual place of wedding doesn’t matter at all. In Prague, St. Petersburg, New York with its lights, or in my cozy Brest – everywhere everything depends only on people.
“The most creative wedding on net”, “The most popular video in vkontakte”, “The most positive wedding in Belarus”, “The most…”, “The most…” , “The most…” and “The most…” It seems to me, that I hardly know a person who didn’t see this video. Kate and Kirill broke all the wedding stereotypes, they exploded their most important day in life. There was amazing atmosphere, best friends, champagne, dancing in most unpredictable places, and of course true love. The video took 500 000 views within first three months. Viewers from 85 countries liked it.
Brest will remember that sunny August day for long time, I will remember for good.
Now the emotions are calm. Cold November is the best time to recollect the hottest Brest wedding of 2011.
I love my job!
Julia Slawomir wedding in Prague and Warshawa in summer 2011
The wedding that took place in summer 2011 is the brightest example of how to organize the wedding day from the very begging to the very end. Julya and Slavomir gave up all the prejudice, they were preparing and dressing in one room, went to church in one car. The guests were sincere and open. There were 150 of them and every one said something touching. The banquet and the venue were amazing. To tell the truth, I was as happy as the newly married couple was. Why? Just because I did my job – made photos catching emotions and feeling of the people around. And I should say there were only true and sincere eyes and smiles. The wedding took place in Warsaw and pre-wedding shooting was is Prague. There we spent 2 incredible days with Julya and Slavomir. A lot of pictures were taken. As the result of our close cooperation we decided to create a web-site with all the photos and videos from the wedding.
Thank you very much my new friends Julya and Slavomir for these happy and very productive days!
