Hello, I’m Melinda Ugrai, a Hungarian-born photographer based in France.
After two decades in aviation, I followed my true passion and became a professional photographer, specialising in unit stills, behind-the-scenes photography, and cinematic key art studio photography.
Whether I'm documenting the energy of a live film set or creating polished promotional imagery in the studio, my goal is always the same: to create photographs that tell stories, capture emotion, and strengthen a production's visual identity.
I have collaborated with productions and creative teams for Warner Bros. Discovery, TLC, Amazon Prime Video, BBC UKTV, and HBO, delivering imagery that supports marketing, publicity, and editorial campaigns.
My background in aviation taught me discipline, discretion, precision, and the importance of teamwork—qualities that naturally translate to working on busy productions where trust and reliability matter.
Fluent in English, French, and Hungarian, I work comfortably with international casts and crews, adapting seamlessly to both fast-paced film sets and controlled studio environments.
If you're looking for cinematic stills, authentic behind-the-scenes photography, or premium key art studio imagery, I'd be delighted to help bring your project to life.
