ORI & KAJETAN

This session took place in Poland, close to Warsaw. Ori, Kajtek, and I woke up very early to catch some mist, which was magically hovering over the nearby meadows that day. Walking barefoot on the dewy grass was a truly pleasant experience. Pino, Ori and Kajtek’s little dog, was very excited and wanted to play all the time. I remember that morning as very soothing and peaceful, and I’m always grateful to meet such wonderful people whom I can photograph. The sun was slowly peeking out from behind the trees, lighting up the faces of my brave models!

About me

Hi, I’m Monika – a photographer and visual artist, deeply rooted in nature, living in Fuerteventura. For the past four years, I’ve been studying the nature of light on the island. My work is grounded in sensitivity, authenticity, and a deep appreciation for emotion, movement, and honest connection.

When working with another person, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere is essential to me – a space where you can feel truly at ease. You don’t need to know how to pose – just come as you are. I believe the most beautiful images are born from comfort, trust, and presence.

My intention is to capture your natural beauty, to see you, to create a safe and peaceful space for you  and to spend a pleasant time with you, during which I will show you the beautiful places on the island. 

I’m here to answer your questions and help plan an unforgettable experience.

Locations: Canary Islands / Fuerteventura & Poland*
