What camera do you use?
I am currently in the process of replacing my equipment so I will share details about my new camera and lenses soon.
Until August 2019 I was using Pentax equipment, including the Pentax K3 II and Pentax K1 cameras. Among my most used lenses were Tamron SP AF 17-50mm F/2.8 XR Di II LD Aspherical and SMC Pentax-FA 50mm F1.4.
Can I share/upload one/some of your pictures on social networks?
If you have advertisements on your page or if you receive any financial benefits of it then the answer is ‘Not without permission… please ask first‘. If you want to share/upload on your personal page/profile in Facebook, Pinterest, Google+ etc. you are welcome, just share with link to my blog or some of my pages. And please mention my website www.andrey-andreev.com/en/. All the images on this site are copyright of Andrey Andreev. It’s simple. If in doubt… ask for permission.
Can I use one/some of your pictures on my website?
That depends on whether you have advertisements anywhere on your site or if you receive any financial benefits from it. The answer is ‘Not without permission… please ask first‘. Similarly, if you are an individual selling something, a company, corporation, religious or charitable organisation, then the answer is also ‘Not without permission… ask first‘… All the images on this site are copyrighted to Andrey Andreev. If you want to use my photos for advertising, publishing or any other purpose, I will be happy to issue you the needed permission against a respective fee. The price depends on the purpose of use of the photo, the size, the expected circulation and the number of photos you would like to buy. There is no flat rate but I usually do not sell photos for under 100 EUR. For further information, see Work with us.
The rest of you, bloggers and internet folks, who are doing it just for the love of it… be my guest… help yourself… and while you’re at it, if you feel like lending a hand to the cultivation of our new relationship, then credit the images with links back to their source. It’s simple. If in doubt… ask for permission.
Do you shoot weddings, children, hotels …?
The photography is a hobby for me, I rarely do it on demand. However, if you think you have a great idea related to my interests, do not hesitate to contact me. See also Work with us.
Do you sell prints?
No, I don’t. But if you want a print for your wall in your … laundry room or anywhere you want you can contact me and we will arrange a free jpeg file with suitable size. It is free, it is just for your smile and happiness. If you want to send me money, I don’t mind – it will be perfect. But it is not obligatory.
I live in a beautiful town/village and I really want to show you this amazing place. Would you like to visit it and take some photos of it?
Sure we want, but unfortunately we don’t have much time and most of all the problem with money. If you can help us with this we are ready to come and make new friends and interesting photos and share lovely time together. “We” – that means two adults and our little daughters Anna and Adriana. If you are a hotel owner, travel agency or any other business, visit our Work with us section.
Can you organize a trip for me?
We are receiving a lot of such question but the answer is No – we are not a travel agency or tour operator of any kind. We are just bloggers who like to travel and share their experience. Of course, we are always happy to help with tips or ideas but we cannot organize your tour.
