I cannot think of anything more that he could have done to make this more perfect. We did a proposal shoot and he communicated with me in the weeks leading up to the shoot.

While in Florence we wanted to get some pictures of ourselves in this beautiful city. After doing some online reviewing of several photographers in Florence we found Dorin to be the most appealing. He replied quickly to my emails, I really liked his work with previous clients, and he was affordable.
He took us to some beautiful locations to shoot my husband and I. He sent us the final pictures the second day and they came out beautifully.
We decided to hire him for Venice too, as our kids were joining us and we wanted some more pictures all together.
When he arrived, he brought us as a present some prints from our session in Florence. I can't describe the quality, but I knew for sure that I want all my pictures to be printed at the same standards. We ended ordering prints directly from him from both our sessions in Florence and Venice and a printed album. It took about 4 weeks until the prints and the album arrived, but it was totally worth it.
So if you are going to Florence you should consider hiring Dorin to give you some memorable photos that you will cherish forever!
Thanks again Dorin! You really made our anniversary special.

Dorin taught me everything learned dealing his bussiness and the world of photography, through his eyes. Also his kind and efficient way of working with clients. He makes them feel comfortable since the first time, leaving all clear for a enjoyable session, with incredible results, at the best selected locations in the city of Florence.

He’s captured some of the most important moments in our lives. Our engagement, wedding, and 10-year anniversary and each time, he has exceeded our expectations.
Dorin has an amazing eye for detail and a true passion. What truly sets him apart is how effortlessly he guides you throughout the shoot. Even if you're camera-shy or unsure of how to pose, he makes you feel completely comfortable and confident.
Another thing we absolutely love about working with Dorin is how fast he delivers the final photos without ever compromising on quality. Every time, the results have been breathtaking. We’re so grateful to have had him capture these milestones, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly. read lessShaninewas looking for someone to take pictures for my proposal and Dorin was very nice and reassuring when I had... read morewas looking for someone to take pictures for my proposal and Dorin was very nice and reassuring when I had questions before the shooting.

Dorin was incredibly attentive from the very first moment we hired his services. He was always available on WhatsApp, responsive, and genuinely willing to help us find the best timing and options for our photoshoot. He even went the extra mile by helping me arrange a bouquet of flowers, which was a beautiful and thoughtful touch.
On the day of the photos, despite the weather not being completely in our favor, Dorin handled everything in a very agile and effective way, making the most out of every opportunity to capture amazing photos. He knew exactly how to adapt and take advantage of the light and the moment.
We also truly appreciated the help and attention from his daughter, Cisa, who—just like Dorin—was always attentive and kind. Together, they made the whole experience smooth, warm, and truly special.
It is with complete confidence that I highly recommend Dorin to anyone looking for a photographer in Florence. It was a unique experience, absolutely worth it.

Everything went so smooth. After the initial friendly, professional and efficient communication, I already knew we were in the right hands. We discussed the structure, organization and timing of the photoshoot and it immediately clicked. I was uncertain how to set up the photoshoot so that it would not spoil the surprise of the proposal. Dorin had great ideas and worked with the venue to ensure that he and his team would blend into the background to not give away the surprise.
This worked flawlessly. My partner said that she did not notice anything before the proposal, giving us the privacy that we wanted for this intimate moment.
The photoshoot after the proposal was excellent and well prepared. Dorin brought out the best of this special moment and the location.
We received the first batch of pictures on the same night, before we even got home. This was great to spread the news with friends and family. The rest of the pictures were already finished on the day after the shooting.
We will cherish those memories for the rest of our lives. Thank you so much Dorin & Team for capturing this moment so well! ❤️ read lessConstantinDorin is an exceptional artist with a Camera!

He kept our communication discrete and my now fiancé had no idea. The pictures turned out absolutely incredible!

We were in touch for about a month leading up to the event planning out the logistics. He was helpful with suggesting locations and ideas in Florence, which was great as I didn’t know my way around the city well at all.
I had to change the location at the 11th hour, and he was so flexible and easy to work with. He was at the location right on time and ended up capturing the most amazing photos. We are truly in awe of how he captured the essence/emotion of the moment.
Could not recommend him more enthusiastically. read lessAlexanderWe hired Dorin to take some family pictures during our stay at a very picturesque hotel in Tuscany over the... read moreWe hired Dorin to take some family pictures during our stay at a very picturesque hotel in Tuscany over the New Year holidays. He was kind enough to arrange a photoshoot at our hotel, even though he lives and works in Florence, a 2 hour drive away.
He brought his partner with us, who did a marvelous job of doing our hair and make up so that we looked pretty in the pictures 🙂 Dorin made sure we had a fun time posing for the portraits, which was a very welcome effort on his part, since our family is rather camera-shy. After a couple of hours, we were done and a few weeks later, he sent us the result.
We were extremely happy with the result! Dorin is a professional through and through, and it showed in the pictures. The pictures he took do a good job of conveying the uplifting mood we were all in during our holiday, and we are very grateful to him for helping us capture this memorable moment in our lives!
We would definitely recommend contacting Dorin if you're looking to take some lovely pictures during your stay in Italy! read lessДарья -

Even with the time zone difference leading up to the proposal he was SO responsive and answered my EVERY question. We met before hand at the proposal spot to go over details on the day. He was calm, patient, and supported me to make one of the biggest decisions of my life. He even put my stuff in his backpack so I didn’t have to worry about it during the proposal and photos. He truly cares about his work and the photos he produces. Dorin, thank you so much! It was truly a pleasure to meet and work with you!! read less
