Our wedding photography style is all about atmosphere, emotion and fun. We choose angles and backgrounds that make everything look its best. Sometimes, we might have to create moments for maximum impact, but most of the time, we capture everything as it happens, with a close eye on light and composition.
I have been shooting weddings since 1999. I used to shoot with a film camera, but today, in the digital era, I shoot with a digital camera. All of your images will usually be online within 3 weeks, but there will be a sneak preview on my blog about a week after the wedding. I am happy to do a few traditional groups, this will take 20 - 30 minutes depending on the size of the groups.
This was the "spark" (no pun intended) I needed to get started on a very long and tedious project, but I am really glad I did it. It improved my photography and communication skills. Throughout the year I have been using various devices to take images such as iPhone 11Pro, Canon 5D Mark III, Canon Powershot G16, DJI Mavic Air Drone and an Insta360 One X 360 degree camera.

Augustin has been the photographer for my son’s Baptism and i can honestly say i am absolutely happy with the whole experience and the quality of the pictures.
Augustin has managed to capture the best of the ceremony and the beauty of it and these memories will last a life time .
He was constantly moving around taking the best shots from the best angles and yet not in anyone’s way nor disturbing anyone.
The picture quality is extraordinary and the pictures were delivered within a couple of days.
Will highly reccomend! Will not disappoint !

Augustin took candid photos of me and my son during a simple walk and i could not believe how absolutely brilliant they turned out to be!
Just like you would see in commercials!
Quality of the photo is at the very top and the way he chose to portrait my son brought out my son’s character perfectly !
Never in a million years could a phone camera capture such brilliant pictures!
I received the photos the next day and they will be in a frame very soon!

We were unsure of how the photo session for our little girl was going to be, as we only met Augustin once, through some friends. Our daughter Emma is uniquely challenging to photograph as she is always goofing around and full of energy. I must say that the moment he started taking her pictures we realized he is a truly professional and talented photographer who not only knows how to make the subject relax but also "speaks the children language" and somehow makes them cooperate and enjoy the whole experience. We look forward to use Ozgo Production services again for our engagement session as we

Ozgo Productions is a great company to work with, whether you want professional shots or candid pictures. Augustin is never superficial or partial, always thriving for perfection. He is a talented photographer and will go above and beyond to take care of your needs. We did a few family photo shoots with him and his approach of blending in with our family and capturing candid moments is exactly what we were looking for. Absolutely beautiful pics that we will treasure forever. Highly recommend Ozgo Productions!

Augustin was videographer for our wedding ceremony and made a 1hr edit version which works really well. The quality, sound and picture all look very good, which can't have been easy in such a large church on a bright sunny day. Really happy with the finished product. Very competitively priced too! Would recommend Ozgo Productions.
