About Ivan
I’m Ivan — a husband, dad and documentary family photographer in Tallinn. For over eight years, I’ve photographed the moments between the posed pictures.
You don’t need to know what to do in front of my camera. I’ll offer gentle guidance, follow your children’s pace and give you room to enjoy being together.
How it works
A simple, relaxed process from first message to final gallery.
1. Tell me about you
Who’s coming, and what would you love to remember? I’ll help you choose a place, a time and how to prepare.
2. Be together
Walk, play or spend time at home. I’ll photograph what unfolds, with gentle guidance when you need it.
3. Receive your story
Your carefully edited photographs arrive in a private online gallery within two weeks.
Kind words
Real families, real experiences, and no pressure to perform.

“From the first moment, Ivan was warm and approachable. Even our shy child and our dog felt comfortable. The pictures captured our family beautifully.”
Maris
“Ivan creates such a chill, non-demanding vibe. He records everyday life and, as a result, you can see that your life is magical.”
