Milos and Vlatko for Shtrak!
Advertising photographers
SHTRAK BOYZ! (Milos Gazdic and Vlatko Mitashev) are a pair of very distinctive, bearded men. One is loud, and the other levitates. With a combined experience of a still-functioning VW Golf Mark 1, they do know their shit! You wanna know anything about 120-year-old cameras and play with one, or maybe 60? Well, visit their studio and Milos will educate you till you beg Vlatko to mix you an old fashioned while you are secretly planning to move in with your belongings in one of the most friendly and cosy studios in Shanghai.
Commissioning these guys for your shoot not only will get you two brains but four eyes, double the heart volume and twice as many balls in comparison to an average photographer, they perform much swifter and meticulous in the pre-and post-production and especially during the shoots. Both coming from a creative design background, they fully understand briefs and work closely with creative directors to turn that brief into a visual orgasm, boldly pushing the limits to achieve the best possible work for the clients and ultimately for their own visual addiction.
Connected through a mutual passion for photography and light shaping, combined with their creative sensibility, the body of work of these commercial whores ranges from advertising, food and beverage to beauty and fashion photography. Edgy in approach, refined in treatment and recognisable for their style, they produce exclusive and hyper-realistic commercial images that will draw your attention.
