Foto-Atelier Šálkovi

Foto-Atelier Šálkovi in Sokolov focuses on portrait photography as its main specialization. Oldřich Šálek approaches each portrait as a personal story — his aim is to capture naturalness, character and the moments clients are happy to share. If you are looking for a portrait photographer who combines a sensitive eye for light, careful editing and a calm studio environment, you have come to the right place. Why choose us? Our work emphasizes natural communication and a relaxed atmosphere. In the studio (atelier portraits) as well as on location (outdoor shoots), Oldřich guides clients with gentle direction so authentic expressions emerge without forced “posing.” The result is portraits suited for personal use, family keepsakes and professional presentation. We also specialize in corporate and business portraits — from classic corporate headshots to contemporary LinkedIn photos. We view portrait photography as an investment in professional image: we carefully choose lighting and composition so your photos appear trustworthy while remaining personal and distinctive. How we work: we start with a short consultation to discuss your wishes and the purpose of the images (personal portrait, business use, print). The shoot takes place in the comfortable studio environment or at an agreed outdoor location. After selecting the images, we perform professional edits and retouching as arranged — final photographs are prepared both for digital use and for print. In the atelier there is an option for on-the-spot printing and backup of selected retouched images. Our service is built on professional practice, personal contact and a focus on quality. If you want a portrait that reflects your personality or strengthens your company image, schedule a consultation in Sokolov. We will gladly advise you on preparation and together create a portrait that truly works.
