Elena’s photographs are truly pieces of fine art that pull you in and invite you to stop and absorb all of the beautiful nuances! Like the crisp detail on a soft petal, vibrance of a drop of water, and the natural real colors. The detail and energy of her work is so strong you feel like you can reach out and touch each gorgeous flower. Beyond the obvious beauty of her work there is deep layer of emotion that she brings to each print, it evokes a desire to pause and reflect. I bought her “Perfectionism” print and every time I look at it it’s soothing balm!

Elena’s photography is truly a feast for all your senses. Her images have the unique quality to transport you into a different world. When I see her stunning pieces of art, I can touch, smell, and feel every single element she brings to life. When I received my selection of postcards, I was blown away by the attention of detail and love she poured into the entire experience. While I had planned to share these cards with my loved ones, I have decided to hold on to them like a treasure or a family heirloom. That’s how captivating, timeless, luxurious, and special her work is. I have been a fan of Elena’s work for years and every time when I tell myself “this has to be my absolute favorite”, she continues to blow me away with her never-ending creativity. Thanks to her, I will have to get a bigger home, so I’m able to hang all of my favorites!

Elena's pieces are truly works of art. When I first saw her prints, I was enamored. I fell in love with her peony series, in particular, and was just in awe of the beauty she was able to convey and a depth to photography that I haven't seen before. Every time I look at my print, it brings such a calm to my mind. You can see the emotion and passion that is put into each piece and feel like you own such a special piece of art. It truly completes my space. I was also delighted with Elena's floral fine art cards. I purchased mine for Christmas greetings knowing they would wow all of my friends and family. The quality of the prints is second to none. Anyone who receives these is sure to be in awe. :)

Elena goes above and beyond, not just in her creations, but in her presentation, in her wrapping, and in her personal attention. Everything that comes from her studio has the Elena Dragoi touch - exquisite taste and fantastical luxury. There is something so rich about each of her photos, and this richness is only emphasized by the ribbons and paper cocoons that adorn each lovingly-prepared package. These photos are endlessly interesting, forever timeless. You can tell that Elena has dedicated herself to providing the very best in everything, from museum-quality paper to perfect printing, to the blossoms full of color that grace her photos. I will have my Elena Dragoi piece hanging on my wall for years and years to come. This is where you go to find your very own moment in time - a unique piece of art that speaks to you.

Not only does Elena showcase the gorgeous aesthetics of our natural world, she also creates extraordinary portraits. Stories, memories and reflections of our loved ones and of ourselves. Within each fold and crease, each shining drop of joy or sorrow, each touch of light and shadow - intricate emotions can be found, illuminated with graceful, timeless beauty. This is why I find her work so moving... there is always something deeper to discover. What's more, her uplifting kindness, clear passion and tender attention to detail take her work to a higher level - so purely made with love and to be treasured.

Elena's images are the true embodiment of the photographic art — painting with light. The soft, rich shadows, inviting contrast, and alluring palettes of her imagery harken back to classics like Vermeer, but are rooted in a visual celebration of the true and pure beauty of nature. Every nuanced detail captures your eye and draws you deeper into the story, transporting you to an ethereal and tranquil world of color and light.

Elena’s art speaks to me on many levels. Her exquisite photography nourishes and heals the soul, acting as a conduit for our own journey back to self-love. Somehow her work allows us to hold space for both the darkness and the light, that provides the most richness for personal growth. Elena’s work nurtures and gently restores the spirit. By capturing the emotions behind the lens, her images convey subtle, yet infallible, healing energy.
