About the specialist
Denis Shotvmomentov is an SMM photographer who understands how visuals impact business. He started with concert reportage photography but quickly moved into HoReCa and events. Denis doesn't just press the button — he plans each frame to work in the feed, evoke emotions, and drive action (likes, saves, profile visits). He works with natural light, strobes, and video. He's always available on the event day to approve key shots. Adapts to the brand's style and provides visual strategy recommendations. In Moscow and the region — travels anywhere.
