Małe Leśne Studio

Małe Leśne Studio is my photographic approach to weddings — honest, intimate and rooted in nature. I’m Karolina Chrapkiewicz and I specialise in documentary wedding photography, capturing real emotions and spontaneous moments rather than staged poses. My work is about telling your story as it unfolds: tender glances, unplanned laughter, and the small gestures that make a wedding uniquely yours. Why choose me as your wedding photographer in Bielsko‑Biała? Because I prioritise authenticity. During the wedding day I act as a quiet observer, blending into the background to record what truly happens. For couple sessions or the brief golden‑hour portraits, I gently guide and suggest small actions — prompts that help you relax and show genuine connection. I keep colour treatment natural: greens remain green, skies keep their tone, and skin tones stay warm and true to life. The collaboration starts with a conversation — by email, phone or in person — so we can align expectations and feel the creative chemistry. I usually recommend an engagement session about 1–2 months before the wedding: a relaxed photo‑walk that helps you get comfortable in front of the camera and lets me learn what suits you best. On the wedding day I cover preparations, the ceremony and reception, and I often take a short portrait session of the newlyweds around sunset when possible. After the wedding I carefully cull and edit your images and deliver an online gallery within roughly 10–21 days, allowing you to relive the day and order prints or albums. I primarily work across Silesia and Małopolska and love shooting outdoor sessions in the Beskid mountains — they make beautiful, natural backdrops for wedding portraits. If you want a wedding reportage that focuses on truth, quiet emotion and natural beauty, I’d love to hear your story. Let’s create images that will be a warm, lasting memory.
