…To me this isn't only a photo, it's a work of art. Its painterly quality, plus the graphic nature of the landscape, takes this beyond an ordinary aerial photoshoot. Yes, it's right place at the right time, but it's technically impressive in that it's absolutely sharp and crisp. I hope to see more of your photos!

What people say
“Within a few seconds I was deeply immersed in my body. Calm and joy came. And a message from this portal: you can lean on the world.”
After the Teleportation Session

Stanislav, something incredible has just happened to me (and is still happening). My first look at the photograph: a smile from ear to ear and such joyful jubilation inside: "Oh, I know this! This energy is familiar to me."
And then it hit me: as if an osteopath took me gently and firmly by the shoulders, put a knee against my thoracic spine and began to straighten my back, strongly and gently. My shoulders turned and dropped back, my neck began to lengthen, the crown of my head up, my chest opened, and I still can't slouch the way I usually do.
And yet there is no tension, inside there is absolute calm and jubilation. I don't yet understand what these energies are doing with my body, but I really like it! Thank you from my heart for sharing this miracle!

This is another long-held dream of ours: a photograph of the planet by Stanislav. It is our wedding gift to ourselves. It carries a very powerful meaning.
myfamilyschoolA wedding gift to themselves
Pure joy. I can really feel the energy of the work in the space. When I buy a house, I'll order a few more works in a large size.
Natali ApraksinaWith her photo portal at homeAll portals are fantastic, they are so alive. The portal I chose took me deep into sensations, as if I were flying and seeing the place with my own eyes. While watching, I felt my whole body. It raised feelings and emotions.
Thank you, Stanislav, for your gift to the world.
Every one of your works definitely changes the chemistry of the body. It is like a beacon, a tuning fork: you have forgotten a little, then suddenly, look, remember, and move on.
My eldest son says: turn this song on for me, it will help me remember who I am and why I was created.
Incredibly beautiful artwork. Seeing the rivers like veins of life.
It felt as if my spine began to warm up and the warmth spread inside. Grounded and filled.
For me it's not really a piece of art, it's much more important. I feel the energy of Gaia that you convey through this photograph.
Rivers like thoughts, energy spilling into something bigger: desires, actions, events.
My biggest insight from this journey is that fear is inside me, and I can just let it out.
I can breathe, an inner warmth has appeared, I want to live.
A feeling of freshness and lightness. You feel it with your body, with your eyes.
Expansion. The body has no boundaries.
It was wonderful, five minutes of silence and calm. How beautiful our planet is. Words can't convey it, you have to feel it, and that is what just happened.
