Family Photographer Igor Klimov

Introduction: Photography became part of my life 8 years ago, both as a hobby and as a professional activity. At the time, I was working for one of the largest IT companies in Europe and had a daily opportunity to practice my photography skills: shooting portraits of top managers and rank-and-file employees, photo reports and staged photos, field and studio photos, photos for posters and advertising campaigns, etc. Photography school, online courses, and workshop certificates also prove my solid theoretical background. As my family moved to the United States, I seized the opportunity to make photography my full-time job. After 4 years in the US I'm focusing on family and event photography - from solo portraits to family sessions, from showers to weddings. Also there are some my corporate clients: Thumbtack (yes, I do some job for Thumbtack), Swampscott Education Foundation, American Academy of Personal Training, Swampscott Youth Soccer Assosiation, North Shore YMCA etc. I have one additional bonus in every family photo shoot. It helps me understand more and more how FAMILY works. Sign of good photo shoot for me – when I am smiling through the process. Sign of perfect job – when I am smiling through the post processing as well. And I feel myself happiest man on the Earth when I am smiling even while posting in Facebook about finished work.
