Best Of Croatia Wedding Photography 2019
2019 season was a hell of a ride. A properly exciting season full of love, emotions, moments, laughter, tears and hugs. Personalised love stories to my new clients and friends, naturally, goes without saying 🙂
Making a selection below 300 images was a challenge. Heck, even below 500 was a success in my mind! To lower it to 120-130 images I needed help. Tons and tons of unbiased help. And oh boy, did I get it? My beautiful (and sometimes too honest) wife Tamara and couple of amazing photographer friends (chief among them being Aleks Kus – Mr.Storyteller himself). I mean, who else can you rely on if not them, right?
Please bear with me to extend my warmest thank yous to them all – You’re the real MVPs 🙂
Best of Croatia Wedding Photography 2019
This rollercoaster of a year makes me really proud and happy. Stories told through my images have met and exceeded my expectations by a mile. This was a true year of a reportage and documentary wedding photography in Croatia for me and I can only hope to pile on this and build my brand for years to come.
To be perfectly honest, being a wedding photographer in Croatia gives you a nice push and a head start. Nowhere in the world will you find such an ambient, landscapes, energy and people! I am really grateful to have the opportunity to live here and make stories with this backdrop.
Year in review
At the very end of my monologue, I’d like to thank the people who make this all possible by putting their trust in me to document their day in my way. Seeing that people like your creative expression enough to put them in your hands and say those sweet couple of words:
~ Do what ever you want to, we trust you ~
Thank you <3
It’s now time to sit back, relax, pop a beer and popcorn and enjoy this short montage of select images to reflect 2019. If you like what you see, feel free to reach out – I’m dying to hear your story. 🙂

Malou&Petar - Dubai Wedding │ Best Of Destination Weddings
Malou&Petar ~ Couple living in Dubai, marrying in Sisak
What a wedding story <3
Obviously I’m aware this wedding didn’t take place in Dubai. In all fairness – Malou and Petar live and work there, and it sure has amazing ring to it, don’t you think? Dubai wedding photographer – sounds great! 🙂
Before plunging deep into my mind and 2 kilometres long blog post let’s take a second and discuss one thing. That thing is destination wedding. Common taught on destination wedding – book amazing couple anywhere in the world.
Travel there, meet amazing people, tell their story. Then with little help from The Big Guy above – book some more weddings there. Love that idea – would love it to happen couple a times a year. Not every weekend though! To me destination wedding means couple somewhere in the world organising their wedding in Croatia.
Let’s be honest – Croatia has SO MUCH to offer <3. Then getting in touch with me and booking my services.
Why you ask? I used to work for many years in a big company which meant going on business trips many times a year – often for a month or so.
I never minded that until I got my first kid Lea. And now having 2 of those little bundles of joy, I don’t see myself traveling 200+ days a year outside Croatia. Sure – I’d love to sleep til 12 the day after the wedding, but can’t get mad at kids for jumping on my head at 8 o’clock in the morning
Way of topic, I know – sorry about that. Back to the point! Malou and Petar are THAT couple. Destination bride and groom coming to Croatia to get married.
Malou is from Philippines, Petar from Croatia – CroAsian Connection established. <3
They met and fell in love in Dubai where they both live and work. Gotta say – I’m grateful they selected as their wedding photographer. Having opportunity to learn of their traditions, customs and more about their culture.
Newfound knowledge makes me a much richer man, and I do mean that.
Early morning session
If you follow my work, you’ve noticed I try to do things differently whenever possible, right? Well these guys were no exception! When Malou said she’d like to have an engagement session in the Upper Town in Zagreb, I said, sure – no problem! As long as you don’t mind waking up at 5 o’clock in the morning and meeting me there at 5:30!
I wanted to avoid tons of people, tourists and if lucky – find some new and interesting lighting. Boy, was I right! To all my future friends and clients – you have Lu and Petar to thank for waking up at 4 in the morning for next sessions 🙂
Old Sisak Fortress Wedding
Controlled by the Bishop of Zagreb, fortress is Sisak town museum in this modern day. Location – between mouth of river Sava on one side and on very bank of river Kupa on the other. Sorry to say we didn’t enter within the walls to the inner court.
We decided against using to much time for a session (15ish minutes or so). Instead, Petar and Lu decided to spend as much time as possible with their family and friends and it was a jackpot.
Party took place on the lawn in front of the fortress under huge tent. The name of the restaurant is Restoran Stari Grad, and I swear you won’t regret contacting them if you are looking for a place to get married near Sisak.
It’s rustic, old school, different and the food was extraordinary. Anyways, Lu and Peta took to the next level organisation-wise. They took care of everything! Appetisers on the lawn in front of the tent, flowers and rustic details everywhere.
Both band and DJ Dario were rocking so there was no down time. In charge for the mood was Luminos – awesome lighting company that will blow your socks off. You couldn’t ask for more even if you wanted to.
Long story short (not that this was short by any means) – hope you enjoy these images. Lu and Pero – thank you for putting your trust in me to document your most important day, I will never forget that.
If you are looking for a wedding photographer (no matter the location) who’s going to make your day a bit more enjoyable get in touch. Let me make memories for you too.

Karla&Luka │ Corberon Resort Wedding
Karla & Luka
Corberon wedding photographer
It is in human nature to have preferences in life. Favourite food, favourite drink, favourite song, sports team, restaurant, car brand et cetera. You don’t choose to have a favourite, this things simply happen organically because of some detail.
Corberon Wedding Resort is my favourite wedding photography venue because of a ton of things. It’s tiny bit outside of my city of Zagreb, so I can quite easily get home after the wedding.
Parking lot is HUGE so there is no problem with leaving a car and carrying a ton of gear to restaurant. The light onsite is highly professional and adds dimension to images – makes for much more flashy story. Food is great and staff is so helpful and do everything for you to feel comfortable and to make your day memorable. Come to think of it – I might just add this to my about section 🙂
Traveling enthusiasts
Karla and Luka are madly happy, fun and in love (with each other and travelling). In fact – in their flat they have a huge scratch of world map to tick off the places they’ve visited. I didn’t bother to see all the places they visited, but Australia/New Zealand did catch my eye.
I’d LOVE to have an opportunity to go there either privately of professionally – so if your are getting married there – drop me a note through my contact form – I’d love to catch up with you and be a part of your big day.
Also – they’ve been to London which is probably no.1 wish at this point (Harry Potter museum anyone?) – so they already saw 50% of countries that I dream of (luckily working as a wedding photographer helps a lot in terms of booking abroad and travelling so – I guess I’ve nailed my profession <3 ) and I still love them which says a lot.
They are so loveable – guess it’s because of them smiling all the time. They simply emit positive energy <3

Villach wedding photographer | Resi&Emir | Best possible way to live life in the Alps
International Love Story <3
Villach wedding photographer
Booking a destination wedding is a special privilege for me. Having a client willing to bring you abroad to become their personal Villach wedding photographer in my mind means I am doing something right.
Doing destination wedding photography always brings additional challenge, hence pride you see when we do one and see satisfied clients, however this one had additional factor that made things easy. Theresia is austrian, but Emir is bosnian, and loads of his friends and family came from Tuzla to Villach to testify this moment of joining this wonderful human beings into holy matrimony.
Therefore there was no possibility in any way, shape or form for this wedding to be anything but fun! Finally, if you add the fact that the bend Jazz Banditen is mostly consisted of serbians living in Austria you just couldn't go wrong.
I was nothing like photographers they saw before
Their words, not mine but you can only imagine the way I felt when they told me <3 Due to me being outspoken, open minded and talkative by nature, having fun while shooting this wedding was an easy task for all of us. Bringing them my favourite craft beer from Croatia was spectacular idea and help to get their juices going (in case you were wondering - that beer would be Zmajsko Pale Ale - if you haven't, I highly recommend you try it - it's wonderful), consequently the image of them drinking beer in a park in the very city center of Villach (I guess now may be proper time to mention that they are big beer lovers :) )
In conclusion I would like to add that a mere 3 hours drive from Zagreb my dream began to fullfill itself and this is yet another step closer to me photographing a wedding in Swiss Alps. My dream of becoming a true destination wedding photographer started with me firstly becoming Villach wedding photographer.
