ARCI / Image

Photography.

Photography is one way of recording people, places and moments that would otherwise disappear.

Authorship and use ↗

The city as
a living document.

Rather than one endless gallery, the photographs are organised into thematic series, unified into the same thumbnail format. An active personal practice since 2010 — the domain arci.cz also serves as a photo credit: every image credited "Foto: arci.cz" leads back here.

Intent

Capture the moment

Recording people, places and moments that would otherwise disappear.

Approach

Document before style

Documentary value comes before stylisation. Series are curated by theme.

Use

ARCI as a photo credit

The domain arci.cz also works as a short author credit and an entry point to information about using the photographs.

Capture the moment

A small series of deliberately tiny photographs from personal commissions — studio, portraits, events.

Photography services

Beyond
the archive.

Alongside personal work, I also offer commissioned photography services — capture, editing and archiving of image material.

01

Shoots and portraits

Weddings, family and children's portraits, pets in studio or outdoors, everyday social occasions and commissioned shoots.

02

Editing and retouching

Retouching, corrections and edits at an agreed quality/price ratio — part of every commission.

03

Archiving

Storing image material so it stays accessible for years to come.

04

Video

Edited and sound-mixed video footage as a complete, presentable record of an event.
