Hello, my name is Gülşah Ozan. I have been a full-time photographer for 6 years now. During these years, I have photographed newborn babies and pregnant women using creative lighting techniques. Based in Turkey, I have taught my photography techniques to dozens of students through Europe and Turkey, where my style became one of the most loved by the public.

I am a passionate newborn and baby photographer whose goal is to make the great emotions come alive again; therefore, I photograph not only with my eyes but always with my whole heart. With creativity, light techniques, and empathy, I create an atmosphere through my studio photos where memories of life never fade.

Meet the 16th Season Judge Board

Katerina Efremova

Russia

Katerina Efremova is one of the first birth photographers in Russia. She said that "This format of shooting was not popular in Russia when I started to work, it was almost beyond understanding for future parents and doctors. And just a few people believed in the future of birth photography.” I became maternity photographer after 10 years of TV experience, I’ve been doing birth shooting for 5 years, since this format appeared in Russia and I joined the official Maternity and Birth photographer of the European Medical Center (EMC). Based on her experience, Katerina has been invited to join the Outstanding Maternity Award Season 16 Judge Board.
