Luboš Dufek Photography

As a portrait photography specialist based in České Budějovice, I build my work on a simple philosophy: capture the real person, not a pose. I shoot natural portraits, corporate portraits and professional headshots with attention to atmosphere, light and authenticity. My approach is relaxed — I want people in front of the camera to feel comfortable and be themselves, because the most compelling images come from those genuine moments. Why choose me? I work personally and without unnecessary formality. With experience in both portrait and commercial photography I quickly establish rapport, guide and advise on posing and wardrobe so the final images look professional and natural at the same time. My visual style favors clean, expressive portraits with natural tones and a strong emphasis on the eyes and facial expression — ideal for personal portraits as well as corporate portraits for company profiles or LinkedIn. How does the collaboration work? Simply and humanly. First we discuss your expectations and the intended use of the photos — whether it’s a personal portrait, a portfolio shot or a corporate headshot. I suggest suitable locations: outdoor spots around České Budějovice, your workplace, or a relaxed home session. I’m happy to bring creative ideas, but I always respect what you want. During the shoot I provide clear, practical direction so the results feel authentic and confident. Preparation and styling: I help with outfit choices and simple styling tips to match the intended use — from casual personal portraits to formal corporate headshots. I can advise on colors, layers and small details that make a big difference on camera and help you feel at ease during the session. What you receive: professionally retouched images ready for online and print use. Deliverables typically include high-resolution files and web-optimized versions; retouching is applied subtly to preserve a natural look. Typical turnaround times and package options will be discussed up front, and travel or specific location needs can be arranged — I’m based in České Budějovice and often work across the region and throughout the Czech Republic. Photography for me is more than a job — it’s telling people’s stories through images. If you want a portrait that truly makes an impression, write or call and we’ll arrange a personal consultation. — Luboš Dufek
