About Photographer

Who is Aurel Virlan as photographer?

In 1991 I became a member of the AAFR (Art Photographers Association of Romania).

I worked for 4 years as senior photographer for Agerpres (The National Press Agency) and I am qualified as a fashion, advertising and wedding photographer.

I graduated  the University of Image and Film (UNATC-Bucharest) and two other schools of photography and photojournalism (two years each).

As photographer I have had many photo exhibitions, including one entry in the *Photography Yearbook 1993*-London and I participated in the *54th International Photographic Salon of Japan*.

One of my last photo exhibition was *Wedding Art Photography*, the first Romanian wedding and *Trash the dress* photographic exhibition.

As a result of many years of work and experiments, I reached a unique style as a wedding photojournalist, through which I beautifully capture the ephemeral emotions of the wedding day.

In 2008 I become WPJA wedding photojournalist (WPJA – Wedding Photojournalist Association) and I win Gold Medallion Medal and since 2011 I am ISPWP wedding photographer (The International Society of Professional Wedding Photographers).
