Radostina ( Rah dos tina ) Hristova Boseva was born and raised in the coastal town of Varna, Bulgaria. After finishing her Master’s in Arts, she moved to the Czechia, where she began her career in graphic design, styling, and art direction. It was there, in the middle of her Czech adventure, that her passion for film photography was born. Now an award-winning wedding photographer, Radostina resides in San Francisco with her husband, Martin, and their English bulldog, Fuji. 

Radostina is influenced by her Eastern European heritage and love for the past. Her timeless style is defined by her love for simplicity and minimalism, combined with the artistic use of clean lines and negative space. Favoring usage of various analog cameras and film stocks, her work is emotive and organic, with a touch of romanticism and modernism, it is raw, yet refined.

She frequently travels between the United States and Europe, crafting photographs that are as elegant and as unique as her clients. 

In March 2024 Radostina received recognition by Rangefinder Magazine, New York and was named as a Rising Star of Wedding Photography.

“Radostina seamlessly blends the modern with the classic, infusing her imagery with elegance to craft pure visual poetry. She has a masterful ability to freeze time as it collides with human connection and emotion.”

“Radostina's work offers a refreshing departure from the conventional wedding photography scene and overly prescribed photos, infusing vintage film techniques to evoke nostalgia and imbue her imagery with a sense of history.”

“It all started with an old shoebox hidden in my mum’s house, where I discovered her wedding images. I was probably around five, and I vividly remember the excitement I felt for having the opportunity to sneak into my parents’ world when they were younger and so much in love. And then… the overwhelming disappointment hit me when I discovered that my parents’ wedding images were taken in the same studio, with the same poses and light, like every other married couple in our town.

It felt so wrong because my parents were special … to me! And they deserved those unique images custom-crafted for them. They deserved it! I deserve those images.


Ever since I built my photography around that - from photo stylist in magazines to graphic designer and film wedding photographer - I put all the knowledge I have to serve one purpose - to craft a unique experience for my couple and not to leave a child disappointed by their pare’ wedding images.”
