in front of the camera
JUST THE WAY YOU ARE every day
They showed up, just as they are and something beautiful happened:
I’m not sure I ever want to be photographed by anyone else. Ewa is just that good
Marta MareckaImagine this…
That you look at yourself – not as someone who needs to be improved or fixed – but as someone who’s already enough.
That you’re okay with what you already know, with the skills you already have.
That there’s nothing in you that needs tweaking: not your hair, not your body, not the way you smile, or the way you tuck your hair behind your ears.
That you don’t need to wait for the perfect outfit, a bit more of a tan, fewer shadows under your eyes, or that extra spark to finally feel just right.
Imagine someone taking your photo simply because…
You are here
Not because you’ve changed, achieved something or became someone.
You exist. That’s already worth seeing.
In this session, it’s all about giving yourself permission to just be you. And you get to decide what that means. 💛
A truism to begin with: People are different. Some people love their lash extensions and styled hair, while others prefer a quick finger-comb before heading out. Some live in tracksuits, while others feel at home in dresses.
The good news? There’s no “right” way to look for this photo session. It’s all about you, and whatever you decide will be perfect.
Bring three outfits
something light, something dark, something that shows off skin*
*It’s completely up to you how you interpret “showing skin” and it does not have to be sexy. It might be simply rolling up your sleeves or unbuttoning one extra button on your shirt. 💛
Don’t worry about knowing how to pose – you really don’t have to.
I’ll gently guide you, offer suggestions, and create space for you to just be yourself. No forced poses, no pressure – just you, breathing.
About your photographer Being photographed changed me
Hi, I’m Ewa Kara
I’m a photographer now – but I used to think a hedge was more photogenic than I was.
Having my photo taken changed the way I see myself.
And I don’t just mean the professional shoots. I mean the ones taken by friends, by my husband… even selfies and self-portraits.
It didn’t happen overnight. It took time. But over the years, photography became a gentle tool that helped me let go of some deep-rooted insecurities.
And no, I wasn’t always in full makeup or styled in outfits picked out by someone else. Most of the photos don’t look like they belong in a magazine.
And still – they matter to me. Every single one.
I truly believe photogenic isn’t a thing.
What matters is how you feel in front of the camera.
And that just so happens to be my superpower:
helping people feel safe, seen, and comfortable when it’s their turn to step in front of the lens.
"Thanks again for making me feel like an actual human being, it’s not an easy feat and I really enjoyed chatting with you!"

Not your fake smile The real one
I know how often we wait: to feel better, more ready, more “together”.
For a different season, a haircut, a bit more sleep.
As I Am was born from something much simpler –
the belief that you don’t need to wait. Just COME AS YOU ARE. Who you are today is already enough.
I’ve watched it happen. Every single person I photographed has walked into the studio at least a little nervous or unsure.
And just two hours later – they leave more open, more relaxed, more themselves.
Oh, and do you know what’s the most amazing?
They finally saw their real smile (not the fake one we put for selfies) And they loved it!
