Povazan Photography

My name is Jozef Povazan and I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in beautiful Vancouver, BC.In reality if you wanted to know about me as much as one can tell, then the right person to ask would be my wife Maria. She knows how I love to create images which turn people's heads, how passionate I am about granny emotions sitting at the wedding ceremony looking at her grand daughter being in love and how goofy I become with my camera in my hands when a DJ start's the party at the reception…View wedding photography as an Art. I have to admit the way I see and feel wedding days started way back before I ever shot my first wedding in Europe. Maria and I love traveling and exploring remote and exotic places. The passion to capture beauty around us influenced our wedding photography style the most. Epic, unique, great looking sceneries for the brides and grooms made us little heroes in their eyes. They could not believe how simply we created those amazing pictures for them in the middle of nowhere. Combine those with emotional moments, happening instantly in front of you at every wedding and you get the complete story. Say, just reach out and capture them well this sounds sometimes easier then it is in reality. This kind of adrenalin rush which can be felt only at the weddings keeps us running and wanting more and more. It is hard to get us tired. We managed to visit Mt. Everest base camp, and crossed Annapurna's in Himalayas in 3 weeks, which even local Nepali sherpas could not believe.Every single image you can see on this website or our blog was created or captured by myself personally. By saying that most weddings I photographed were done without an assistant or a second photographer since I love to create your story based on my vision and how I felt your wedding day, yet here is my big kudos to my wife Maria, who's organizing and assisting skills, plus running our business are absolutely amazing.Some of my wedding images were awarded by worldwide recognized photography associations such Fearless Photographers, Professional Wedding Photographers of Canada or ISPWP - International Society of Professional Wedding Photographers. Another were featured and published at wedding magazines and blogs all over North America. I had also been invited to be a photography judge for 2015, 2017 and 2019 rounds of PWPC wedding photography contests where the best of the Canadian wedding photographers compete for a prestigious crown of the best wedding photographer in Canada. I am thrilled how my biggest passion brought me such an honour and the most amazing job I could ever imagine.We are also part of couple amazing Vancouver wedding shows and preferred vendor for multiple wedding venues in Greater Vancouver area, such Terminal city club HUSH Soiree, Pan Pacific wedding show, Westin Bayshore hotel fair, Canada Place wedding fair, Brock House show, The Pinnacle hotel at the Pier and more.
