I’m Sergey Churnosov, a sports photographer based in Moscow. I shoot for athletes, teams, and organizers. If you need a photographer for your event, feel free to reach out.
About Me
I am a sports and event photographer. My project is reportage photography of competitions and sporting events. I work for athletes, teams, and organizers who want their achievements captured with quality and honesty.
Mission and Philosophy
I believe every athlete deserves great photos. Especially in sports that rarely get attention.
My goal is not to make money from shooting, but to help you preserve your emotions and share them with the world. That’s why I always give photos directly to athletes and never sign agreements that limit their right to their own images.
I’m open to collaboration and commercial commissions. The only condition is that the terms don’t compromise the athletes' interests.
Legal Information
All photos on this site are taken as part of reportage photography at public sporting events.
Under Article 152.1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, a person’s consent for the publication and use of their image is not required in the following cases:
- The use of the image is in state, public, or other public interests.
- The image was obtained during shooting in places open to free access, or at public events (sports competitions, concerts, festivals, and similar events).
However: consent is required if the sole purpose of using the image is to generate profit. I do not use photos for commercial purposes without separate consent.
If you recognize yourself in a photo and want it removed contact me, and I’ll do it promptly.
