It's a good idea to take photos at the bright night time of the summer solstice. Uri is very friendly. Thanks for the nice photos!
Thanks Yiming! I really enjoyed capturing nice pictures of you in Riga during its beautiful summer nights. Best wishes
One of the sad things about a holiday as a single parent is that you sometimes don't get many good photographs . Not anymore thank you Uri. You have made a good holiday unforgettable
Thank you Jon! Perfect are your words I definitely can’t stop appreciating. It was a pleasure to meet you and your boy, be welcome anytime back to Riga!
Uri is such a passionate guy and friendly photographer! He told us stories and took pictures of us in many nice spots of the Old Town, including the Christmas markets. What I liked the most is that he made us feel comfortable all the time although us not being models. We got the pictures after 2 days, they are so beautiful! Thanks again Uri for a wonderful experience 🙂
Thank you Kristine! I’m so glad you like the pictures and felt comfortable with the experience of having a photoshoot, that was my main purpose :) Best wishes, Uri
I gifted my girlfriend with this photoshoot so we could have nice pictures in Riga with a Christmas atmosphere. Uri guided us through the Old Town, finding nice spots where to take our pictures. The combination of photoshoot and the guided tour was a great idea to have, especially at night with all the Christmas lights. Being not a fan of someone taking pictures of me I must say I enjoyed the experience quite a lot! Uri did a great job and was very friendly with us, suggesting different ideas for the pictures which turned out great! A totally recommended activity if you visit Riga at this time of the year.
Thanks Martin! Was a pleasure to meet you guys, I am really glad you enjoyed our photoshoot-tour experience, and the pictures! Kind regards, Uri
Well delivered, the photos were lived as agreed. Attendance at the right time, nice photographer. Also got a tour of the old town.
Thanks Per! It was a pleasure to meet you. I appreciate your positive attitude despite a bit of rain which, otherwise, contributed to get such beautiful effect on the pictures. Best regards, Uri
We can highly recommend the night photoshoot with Uri who is a very nice photographer who managed to make it a special experience! Two days after the photoshoot we got the pictures by mail as we easily could download. Thanks uri!
My pleasure Tommy! I'm glad you guys liked our night Photoshoot-Tour experience and specially, that you had a nice time around Riga. Best wishes! ;)
I was given the gift of this photoshoot as a surprised birthday gift from my partner. It was something that was outside both of our comfort zones but Uri was brilliant at putting us at ease. It was an enjoyable evening spent with Uri who showed us around the old town and told us some of its history whilst taking our pictures. As we are both not confident in front of the camera I was hoping for just one great picture of us (not a reflection on Uri's capabilities!) but there are so many out of the selection that we love, we are over the moon! Uri's use of the natural lighting around the old town meant the photos are really cool, soft and not at all cheesy (well, maybe one or two :-)) Thank you Uri for a wonderful evening and a fabulous souvenir of my special birthday trip to Riga.
My pleasure Vicky! Happy to have contributed to your birthday gift, I am glad it turned out to be something special for you ;) Be always welcomed back to Riga for another Photoshoot! Take care, Uri
We had a great experience with Uri - having photographs taken of us as a couple was nothing we have ever done before so we were well out of our comfort zone, but Uri helped put us at ease (as much as he could) and gave us a great tour of the city and took some great photos. We are really pleased with the results and would recommend the experience, and trust him when he recommends some poses, even if the feel unnatural they look good!
Thanks Pete! Can't be more glad you enjoyed this Photoshoot-Tour experience and, most importantly, that you felt comfortable and pleased with your couple pictures! Best regards, Uri
I had a lovely and amazing experience with Uri, such a friendly person and not only a great Catalan photographer. I was with my daughter Giulia and we had a nice night walk around the hearth of Riga and thanks to Uri we discovered some hydden gems of the city. We had fun to invent some nice poses and we generated a unique foto reportage. I do suggest to try this unique experience and you will have amazing pics from Uri. Bravo!
Grazie Lorenzo! Was very nice meeting you and your daughter. You guys created a beautiful atmosphere that allowed me to get such natural & charming pictures - I am very happy about them :) Be always welcomed back to Riga, ci vediamo!
Sharing a little bit of my experience while the photoshoot in Riga I should start pointing on how passionate and involved the photographer is and how friendly and patient he was. More than that, he made me feel very comfortable through the communication skills. As I was just a tourist I haven't seen a lot of Riga until the night photoshoot. I must say the tour was an amazing and unforgettable experience! The city of Riga and the darkness of the night are the best combination when you have the right photographer. I highly recommend! This photoshoot tour is a must do in Riga!!
Thanks Gabi! I will honor your words by keep giving the best of me to deliver amazing and unforgettable experiences :) Hugs, Uri
