I am a portrait specialist based in Opava. I create natural and artistic studio and outdoor portraits with sensitive direction and professional retouching. Business portraits for LinkedIn available.
My name is Josef Marek and portrait photography is one of my main passions. Based in Opava and working across the Czech Republic, I aim to ensure every portrait reflects the uniqueness and personality of the person photographed. My approach combines an artistic sensibility with gentle direction: I let you remain natural while using my experience to produce strong, authentic images. In my work I focus on what matters most in a portrait — personality, expression and atmosphere. I shoot both in the studio and on location, and I am experienced with natural as well as artificial light. I choose lighting and composition so the final photographs stand out for their aesthetics while remaining natural and timeless. Thanks to collaborations with makeup artists and stylists and the top-tier equipment I use, it is possible to achieve a professional result even for demanding concepts. The process is always collaborative: first we talk about your ideas, choose the setting and style, and then create a relaxed atmosphere during the shoot. I like clients to feel comfortable — unobtrusive movement prompts, small directing tips and practical tricks I’ve learned in the field can turn even shy subjects into natural portrait sitters. After the shoot I devote attention to careful post-processing so each image looks professional while truthfully capturing the subject’s personality. Although I specialize in portrait photography, I also offer professional business portraits and LinkedIn photos for those who need a representative image for their career or company. I treat these services as a complement to my portrait portfolio and adapt them to the client’s style and needs — from relaxed corporate portraits to polished professional headshots. If you are looking for a portrait photographer in Opava who values authenticity, aesthetics and a professional approach, I would be happy to discuss your vision and design a tailored session for you.
