Couldn’t recommend Anete more! She was so professional and thoughtful from day one - the little extras make it so special and you really feel like she’s a friend! She is incredibly discrete and yet manages to capture everything just perfectly. Even after the wedding, she’s in contact offering to support with picking photos to print and create into memories. Best decision ever, you won’t regret! More...

Photos beyond perfect, Anete was really amazing to have as a wedding photographer. Both posed photos and candids came out amazing, and suited to the style we were looking for for both engagement and wedding photos! Couldn't be happier with how the photos, and Anete is so lovely, friendly and professional! 10/10 best wedding photographer around! xoxoxoxo More...

We are really lucky to have been able to book Anete to photograph us several times over the past few years now. Anete has documented our family growing and I can not wait for her to capture us as a family of 4 very soon (6 with the doggies! ). Looking through her photographs, you can see that she genuinely cares about her work and her clients. I've made a lovely friend.Anete is professional, yet friendly and really easy going.Each time we arrange a shoot, I feel that bit more comfortable, something which I thought would never happen and the photos just seem to get better and better. Anete really does have a magical ability in helping you feel at ease, and also an amazing eye for detail, especially with Edith moving and exploring as fast as she does! We recently met at Willingham Woods which was a perfect location and allowed Anete to capture our little family exactly as we are. Puddles, mud and all. The photo's are absolutely perfect and we will hold them dear for the rest of our lives. It is truly amazing to have them as memories! More...

From the moment my husband and I contacted Anete, we were met with friendly professionalism. Anete arranged for a meeting and we knew from then on that we would definitely book Lusina Wedding Photography. Anete showed a genuine interest in us and our personalities, taking our views (neither of us felt brave in front of a camera!) seriously and posing solutions and alternative methods.We had a pre-wedding shoot that produced gorgeous photography, shot in Hartsholme Park, Lincoln. Anete travelled to meet us and you could see how much pleasure she took from her work. Anete made us feel completely at ease and Dan and I almost forgot she was there, doing her magic.Anete and her second shooter blew us away on the actual wedding day. Their laid back attitude and professionalism was exactly what we needed, with many shots being natural ones (exactly what we asked for).The photographs evoked tears from our family, and Dan and I could not fault a single one. There were some shots in there that we could not have dreamed we would have. Anete's style was perfect for us both and we were so pleased we went with her.Anete became a part of our family and we were tremendously pleased when she accepted our invitation to join us at our Indian ceremony, too. We would wholeheartedly recommend Anete to anyone; her incredible photography, personality and putting you at ease rivals photographers who charge at least 3 times the amount.Go with Anete - you will not be disappointed. Dan and I know we have made a friend for life! More...

If Carlsberg did wedding photographers... What can I say that hasn’t already been said? Wedding photos are the stuff of nightmares for many people. You look at portfolios, read reviews, paw over hundreds of websites, articles, blogs etc to find the right one. I made contact with several short-listed photographers, and right from the word go, I knew we’d found the right person in Anete. Her genuine care for her couples, the questions she asks to get to know you, her quest to make sure she does the best for you both as a couple. You feel comfortable straight away - and before you’ve even met! We could not have asked for more on the day. We never felt like we were being directed, or ‘posed’, both Anete and Geoff seemed to ‘blend’ into the surroundings, it was just like we had two extra guests armed with professional cameras. We chatted, we laughed and hugged on the day - miles away from the stereotypical wedding photographers. Then the wait - the nervous wait for the photos to arrive. Yet again, Anete has not disappointed. The photos that arrived are the stuff of magazine articles and much subscribed wedding blogs. They captured all the moments we’d hoped. The personal moment between two people in love, the glint in an eye, the joke shared between friends and family members, personalities of our guests, the ambience of the places we were, the little details, the magic. Thank you. We cannot recommend you enough. More...

I am absolutely overwhelmed with the gallery from our wedding that we received yesterday. Anete has a great eye and captured the essence of our day perfectly. The slideshow was a wonderful touch also. I can’t recommend this wonderful lady highly enough. She’s more than just a photographer. She got to know us in the months prior it felt more like a friend was taking our photos. More...

The short of this review is the Anete, Geoff and Philip who photographed our wedding were incredible and produced some amazing pictures.
Myself and my (now) husband (Craig) can't recommend them highly enough!
When we first started looking for photographers, the main thing we wanted was non-intrusive, relaxed pictures. We wanted the whole feel of our wedding to be fun and relaxed, and didn't want the flow of the day to be interrupted by stiff, posed photographs. We found Anete through a wedding fayre, and after looking at her portfolio and meeting with her and Geoff, it was clear they were the perfect photographers for us.
Over the months between meeting and our wedding, Anete kept in contact with us, and we arranged a pre-wedding shoot to get us used to the camera. We were both feeling a bit dubious before the pre-wedding shoot, as we were nervous about having our photos taken, but that was quickly dispelled! Anete made us feel so comfortable and relaxed, and we barely noticed her snapping away.
When it came to the big day, we couldn't have asked for anything more from them all as a team. They took photos so unobtrusively and never interrupted the merriment to take any pictures. Myself and Craig had pre-agreed with Anete to have a little couple's shoot after the ceremony and before the reception, but we were so wrapped up in talking to people, we realised that time was pressing on. Anete reassured us that she would get some pictures at another point and not to worry and enjoy ourselves, which put us at ease.
Everyone commented on how great Anete, Geoff and Philip were on the day. We got all of the images back yesterday, and they are incredible. They captured all of the fun, happiness and laughter that we remember from the day. Anete & team really are incredible, and we could not recommend them highly enough!!

We were so pleased with our photography for our wedding and for our pre-wedding shoot. Anete and Geoff put us at ease and we barely noticed they were there on the day, yet they captured so many special moments so beautifully. Anete's special touches in the service she delivers are really lovely. Thanks for capturing our wedding day so perfectly! More...

Not only is Anete a fantastic person but also an amazing photographer. I recommended her to one of my couples as she was the perfect fit for them. I can't thank her (and Geoff) enough for the beautiful images captured of K&B back in July and the care and attention to detail that was taken. Being a wedding planner for almost 6 years I have worked on over 150 weddings and the images really stood out to me as some of the best. Natural, modern, elegant and just gorgeous. Looking forward to working with you again very soon x More...

I have never been more sure about recommending someone then I am about recommending Anete. She has been so much more than just a wedding photographer to us.
From the moment we booked Anete she showed us we had made the right choice, her personal touches from the word go meant a lot to us. She got to know us before the day and truly listened to who we were - the pre wedding shoot felt relaxed and like we were just hanging out with a friend! Her communication is exceptional and anything we needed she was right there both before the day, on the day and everyday since! We are beyond happy with the end result - our photos could not reflect the day better and every single shot shows the effort Anete has put into editing and making them beautiful! Her and Geoff felt like they were part of our day, you don’t notice their photography yet they capture every emotion. We just received our album and it is beautiful, both the editing, printing and quality. We are beyond happy with it!
You can see how much Anete prides herself in her work, she really understands that the little touches are what matter and we feel honoured to have had her capture the best day of our lives. Thank you Anete from the bottom of our hearts for everything.

Words really cannot describe just how perfect Anete was to photograph our wedding. From start to finish she provided a very personal service and attended to every one of our needs.
The moment we saw our engagement photos we knew we had made the right choice, and couldn't wait to see the wedding photos.
Anete is perfect, sweet and completely unobtrusive. There was so much of our wedding where we had no idea she was there yet she caught the most perfect moments. My personal favourite surprise photo being the moment my new husband fed me a pork pie (hardly ladylike) and she snapped the perfect photo of it. As we progressed through our wedding day and decided we wanted certain pictures she was there and waiting and when we were mingling with our guests she was in the background capturing magic moments.
The service Anete provides is full of so many personal touches that I would hate to ruin the surprise. I have never been more sure about recommending anyone and I will be recommending her to everyone I know! Thank you so much for making our day so perfect, you have become part of our family

Anete was perfect to work with, was very warm and welcoming. We had a relaxed session based on interracial couples in the media, I had never done anything like this, however, Anete made us both feel at ease and we both thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Would definitely love to work with Anete again and will be in touch about future events. Thank you again x More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Injecting my own personality into the image combined with that of the subject. This means simply being a people person, relating to others, and being able to translate my subject's personality into a beautiful photograph. Sometimes it even helps having a cup of coffee before the shoot to allow my subjects to relax, help them get used to me and open up.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
The first questions would be what's my client's budget and deadline. Whether it is a wedding, a lifestyle session or a commercial shoot, it's crucial to know what resources the client has to dedicate to this project. The next questions would be about how they see this project materialised into a finished product and how we can combine that with my vision and my skills.
What do you love most about your job?
I love the social aspect of my work - from meeting the couples, to being a part of their family in a sense, because during a wedding I'll be interacting with most family members and guests. I take the vibrancy and energy from each wedding I shoot and let it guide me through the day. When shooting couples, families and portraits, I enjoy learning more about my clients. From shooting a surprise engagement to a lifestyle session for a client's grandma, it means the world to me that they choose me to be the one who captures a moment in their lives.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Photography came into my life very randomly, but it felt so natural. I seem to be able to express myself better visually through a photograph than any other way, and because I enjoy showing others how I see the world through my work, it pushed me to start my own business. It's important to me to stay true to myself and my style, and let that be a crucial aspect of my business.
Why should our clients choose you?
As someone who's well travelled and worked their way up from almost nothing, I am very relaxed, down to earth and enjoy working with people from all walks of life. To me every client is equally as important, and I thoroughly enjoy the diversity of people I have worked with. My relaxed European attitudes is what, I believe, has made many clients enjoy working with me. I listen to the client, first and foremost, and then translate their wishes into a piece, that also contains my personality and my style.
Street Photography Workshops
My business partner and I organise street photography workshops in London, Paris and visit cities throughout the UK.
We not only offer these workshops to any level photographer, but also to hen and stag parties - why not have something very different and enjoy a day out in a beautiful city like Paris and take shots of it alongside?
