DR stands for Diana and Rafal. 5000 means young, energetic and modern. Thanks to being competitive as sister and brother we are 5000 times more creative. We’ve loved photography since we can remember but recently our passion has been growing rapidly and constantly. We freak out on being photojournalists presenting unique moments, we fancy studio and outdoor portraiture and really adore challenges. We always work as a team, all around the world.
The image was shot in Paris, France. We traveled across the Europe to take pictures in the couple’s beloved city and right before the departure Bride asked us if we know the exact location of that particular wall. We said: “yes!â€
They were expecting us to take some standard, posed portraits, but wanted to breathe life into the shot, so we asked them to jump in the most crazy way they could. They have liked the idea. He started acting like a vulture and she was pretending to be a choreographer of Rollings Stones…or the other way round ;)
Most of the time we work with portable studio flashes and almost every picture we take is lit with off camera flash. It was different that time, as we run out of flash batteries. We had to continue with camera only. We used Nikon D700 and 70-200 f/2.8 VRII at around 100mm, f/2.8, 1/400 s., ISO 200. The goal was to maintain the DOF, avoid noise and freeze motion at the same time. No post production was involved apart from distortion and vignette corrections as well as white balance fine adjustments. Technically it was the most simple picture we have ever taken!

I decided to stay later at this wedding having seen that the sky had the potential to be dramatic and colourful as dusk fell. I kept checking the lighting and sky through a couple
Our work goes beyond the click of the camera, I try to get involved with the couple, always willing to do something different, always working together as a team on their wedding da
