Radostina ( Rah dos tina ) was born and raised in the coastal town of Varna, Bulgaria. After finishing her Master’s in Arts, she moved to the Czech Republic, 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.
