Kotryna is a professional documentary style photographer based in Stockholm, Sweden.

Meet Kotryna – not just your everyday photographer, but a lively storyteller who thrives on capturing the dazzling beauty of life’s moments, all bathed in the natural spotlight. Hailing from a whirlwind of backgrounds – Lithuania, Sweden, and the UK – and jet-setting to places like Australia, Nepal, Brazil, and Argentina, Kotryna’s photography is a vibrant tapestry woven with her insatiable curiosity about diverse cultures and far-flung locales.

In her photography, Kotryna playfully blends an array of styles, all dancing to the rhythm of a commitment to keeping it real and unstaged. Picture this: forming genuine connections with clients, stealthily staying incognito to snag those genuine moments, and striking a harmonious balance between meeting client expectations and tossing in her creative sprinkle. In her own documentary-style dance, Kotryna takes a wild spin, challenging the norms in wedding photography and making the preservation of natural emotions a visual meditation.

Beyond the lens, Kotryna’s graphic design prowess kicks in with a splash. She effortlessly crafts layouts for publications, booklets, and photobooks – infusing each project with her playful touch. A quick peek at her awards and exhibitions on the website not only showcases her professional finesse but also tells a tale of her personal growth in the delightful art of storytelling through visuals. So, step into Kotryna’s world, where every snapshot is a wink from life’s dazzling spotlight.
