Who We Are
5 Thousand Frames Films is an international photography and cinematography studio founded and led by husband-and-wife team Oleksandr and Kateryna Diachenko.
With more than 15 years of experience and over 600 weddings documented, we've built a trusted network of talented photographers and filmmakers across the United States, Europe, and beyond. While weddings remain at the heart of what we do, we also create compelling visual stories for engagements, events, commercial brands, real estate, and other meaningful projects. Our team allows us to take on productions of every size while maintaining the artistic vision and exceptional experience that define our brand.
Our carefully selected team consists of experienced photographers and filmmakers who share our standards, artistic approach, and passion for storytelling. Every professional representing 5 Thousand Frames Films is chosen not only for technical excellence but also for the ability to create a comfortable, enjoyable experience for every client.
Although our team has grown, our philosophy remains the same: every project deserves thoughtful planning, personal attention, and timeless imagery. Every production is guided by our creative direction and completed according to the high standards that have earned the trust of hundreds of clients.
For us, every story is worth preserving with elegance, authenticity, and lasting beauty.
WHO ARE WE FOR
You appreciate beautiful imagery and have a strong sense of style. You value quality over quantity and understand that a carefully curated collection of exceptional photographs and films is worth far more than thousands of repetitive images.
Whether we are documenting a wedding, private celebration, corporate event, brand campaign, commercial production, or another meaningful project, our goal remains the same: to create purposeful imagery that feels refined, authentic, and visually memorable.
You do not need endless galleries filled with nearly identical photographs or hours of footage capturing every second without intention. You want the moments, details, and emotions that matter most — thoughtfully selected and beautifully preserved.
Whether you feel completely comfortable in front of the camera or slightly unsure, that is perfectly okay. You do not need modeling experience, and you will never be forced into awkward poses. Our photographers and filmmakers guide each experience naturally, helping you feel relaxed, confident, and present.
You appreciate stylish visuals with a touch of fashion, luxury, and cinematic atmosphere. You are drawn to imagery that feels like a blend of timeless storytelling, editorial photography, cinema, and the polished aesthetic of luxury campaigns.
You also understand that more equipment does not automatically create better work. Our approach is intentional and unobtrusive. Rather than overwhelming a space with unnecessary cameras, tripods, and production equipment, we carefully select the right tools, perspectives, and creative professionals for each project.
Founded and creatively led by Oleksandr and Kateryna Diachenko, 5 Thousand Frames Films works with a trusted network of experienced photographers and filmmakers across the United States, Europe, and beyond. Each project is matched with the right creative team based on its location, scale, style, and production needs.
Although the people behind the cameras may vary depending on the project, every photograph and film is created under one artistic direction and according to the visual standards of 5 Thousand Frames Films.
Most importantly, you want to trust experienced professionals, let go of unnecessary stress, and enjoy the experience while our team takes care of preserving it beautifully.
Because the strongest photographs and films happen when nothing feels forced — when people, brands, and stories are allowed to feel real.
