Roman Kantsir is a director of photography and commercial photographer with more than 20 years of experience in film, advertising, television and commercial production. The same approach carries across both sides of the work — professional lighting, careful camera operation and two-camera setups — whether the subject is an actor on a set or an executive in a meeting room.

He shoots independently or leads a small crew, and works directly with executives, clients and international production teams. The frames below are a selection from his archive.

What Roman Kantsir photographs

Portrait

Film-quality portraiture lit with a professional lighting package rather than available light alone. Studio or location, single subject or a small group, moving at the pace a portrait session actually needs.

Business & corporate

Executive and team portraits, corporate reportage and internal communications on location in Bucharest and Chișinău. Direct with clients and executives on the day, and used to working inside the time a business setting allows.

Editorial

Commissioned and editorial stills where the image has to carry a story — commissioning portraits, features and magazine work; the same cinematographer’s eye for frame, light and composition, on a stills timeline.

Events

Conferences, launches and corporate events, covered discreetly and in changing light. He is comfortable working under pressure in fast-moving environments, and delivers the set on schedule.

Reportage & documentary

Observational, documentary-style coverage that follows the subject rather than staging it — the same discipline behind his TV documentary and feature work.

On set & stills

Behind-the-scenes and on-set stills from film, series and commercial productions. Because he is the director of photography, the stills can be shot without interrupting the shooting day — see his film and series work and commercial campaigns.

Yes. Roman Kantsir is based between Bucharest and Chișinău and works across Romania and Moldova, with local clients and international production teams. Corporate and executive portraits can be shot on location in either city with a full professional lighting package.

Can he shoot both photography and video on the same production?
