Graduating from the Cinematographer Faculty at the Film School in Łódź, she developed a unique approach to film still photography. Pajchel didn’t practice as a cinematographer but distinguished herself in still photography, capturing iconic images like those from Andrzej Wajda’s “Wesele.” Known for her innovative techniques, she used soundproof camera covers for unobtrusive shooting and focused on capturing distinct visual elements of films. Pajchel’s long collaboration with Andrzej Wajda and other filmmakers marked her as a significant figure in Polish cinema photography.
