Autumn is definitely one of the most magical seasons. I love it for its explosion of colors, the leaves falling from the trees, and the rain—best enjoyed from the couch with a cup of our favorite tea. As it happens, for the past few years, my wedding season has always come to a close in the fall. The last weddings of the season are always unforgettable and special. Last year was no different. I wrapped up my photography marathon with a beautiful wedding story for Paulina and Marcin. They chose the stunning Szklarnia Grodzisk as their wedding venue. Until then, I had only seen it on Instagram, and to be honest, the chance to photograph there had me beyond excited. I counted down the days to this wedding for many reasons.
I met Paulina during my photography studies. Although we didn’t study together, she was my guiding light, always offering invaluable advice. I’m convinced that without her, my journey at UW would have been much more challenging, and for that, I will always be grateful. So when she asked us about our availability for her wedding, I felt it was my duty to return the favor for everything she had done for me. And when I finally met her fiancé, I knew right away—they were meant for each other.
On their wedding day, everything just fell into place—the vibrant red of Paulina’s hair, the room with the most epic chandelier ever, where Marcin was getting ready. His deep burgundy suit made him look absolutely regal. The bookshelf in the living room, filled with fantasy novels, a Deadpool figurine, and a Witcher School medallion 😃—it all made me feel right at home from the very start.
But beyond the material things, there was something even more important—something that can sometimes be hard to notice, yet in their case, it was crystal clear. The way Marcin looked at Paulina. Their beloved dog, calmly watching the preparations unfold. The tender embraces and teary eyes of their loved ones during the blessing. The crisp autumn air, their pure joy when they saw each other in the garden for the first time. Their unfiltered happiness, surrounding us at every moment that day.
It’s truly beautiful when two people love each other so deeply that their love becomes almost tangible. Suddenly, everything feels simpler. They are just there for each other—no pretense, no worrying about what’s appropriate, whether there’s time, space, or the right moment. They embrace life fully, in every second. And that’s the most beautiful thing a person can witness and capture in photographs—preserving it forever.
WHAT I’LL REMEMBER FOREVER:
Smiles, smiles, and more smiles—throughout the entire day, every single moment.
That I got to decorate the ring box myself, and everyone was happy with the result—even though I’m no florist or decorator 😆
Their total chill vibe.
The mini-session during the reception, which, thanks to their natural ease, turned out to be some of the best shots we’ve ever taken in such a short time.
The badass squad-style photos of the girls with cigarettes.
The Bin Laden dance organized by Kacper from Dobry Klimat Music Band.
I might sound like a foodie, but I have to mention it—THE BEST FOOD EVER.
That they wanted to take a few final shots by the lights of my car, with everything glistening from the rain.
The bold red color that appeared throughout the day, sparking my imagination at every turn.
That’s just a little intro about this incredible couple—now, I invite you to dive into their story. Put on some music, soak in the vibe, and enjoy their absolutely unforgettable day!
