As a real estate photographer, my journey has been a captivating exploration of architecture, design, and the art of storytelling through imagery. Over the past five years, I have delved into the intricate world of real estate photography, honing my skills, refining my techniques, and discovering the beauty in every corner of a property. My love affair with photography began long before I stepped into the realm of real estate. From a young age, I was drawn to the magic of capturing moments frozen in time, of preserving memories and emotions through the lens of a camera. As I grew older, my passion evolved into a profession, and I found myself immersed in the dynamic field of real estate photography. In the bustling world of real estate, where first impressions are paramount and every detail matters, photography plays a crucial role in showcasing properties in their best light. Through my lens, I strive to capture not just the physical attributes of a space but also the essence of what makes it a home. Whether it's the warm glow of sunlight streaming through a window, the inviting curve of a staircase, or the serene beauty of a landscaped garden, I seek to evoke an emotional response in viewers, drawing them into the narrative of each property. Over the years, I have refined my craft through a combination of formal training, hands-on experience, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. I have studied the principles of composition, lighting, and post-processing, constantly pushing myself to innovate and elevate my work to new heights. Every shoot presents its own set of challenges and opportunities, from navigating tight spaces and tricky lighting conditions to capturing the unique character of each property. Yet, it is precisely these challenges that fuel my passion and drive me to continually evolve as a photographer. One of the most rewarding aspects of my job is the opportunity to work closely with clients, collaborating with them to bring their vision to life. Whether it's a sprawling estate, a cozy apartment, or a commercial property, I approach each project with the same level of dedication and attention to detail, ensuring that the final images not only meet but exceed the expectations of my clients. Building strong relationships based on trust, communication, and mutual respect is at the heart of what I do, and it is immensely gratifying to see the impact that my work has on my clients' success. In addition to my technical skills and creative vision, I bring a deep sense of professionalism and integrity to every project I undertake. I understand the importance of deadlines, budgets, and client satisfaction, and I pride myself on delivering results that not only meet but exceed expectations. Whether it's a high-end luxury property or a modest family home, I approach each assignment with the same level of enthusiasm and commitment, treating every project as an opportunity to showcase my passion for photography and my dedication to excellence. Beyond the confines of the real estate industry, photography is a powerful medium for storytelling, allowing us to capture moments, evoke emotions, and inspire change. Through my work, I strive to not only document the beauty of the world around us but also to shed light on important issues, spark conversations, and promote positive social change. Whether it's raising awareness about environmental conservation, advocating for social justice, or celebrating the rich diversity of our communities, I believe that photography has the power to make a difference and inspire positive action. In an ever-changing world where technology is constantly evolving and trends come and go, the art of photography remains a timeless and universal language that transcends boundaries and connects us on a deeper level. As a real estate photographer, I am privileged to play a small but meaningful role in this rich tapestry of human experience, capturing moments, telling stories, and leaving a lasting legacy for generations to come. With each click of the shutter, I am reminded of the infinite possibilities that lie before me, and I am filled with gratitude for the opportunity to share my passion with the world.

The project landed her a major exhibition at a New Zealand Art Museum, as well as a published 270 page book.

How did you get started with photography

Photography has always been my passion. I bought my my first camera in 2003, it was an old Nikon film camera. Three years after I finally could afford a digital Canon 20D with a 50 mm lence. I decide to become a professional photographer straight after I graduated from the journalism faculty of Moscow State University. Yes, I enjoyed being journalist but at the same time I started understanding that writing is not my thing. I'm a visual person. I decided to become a professional and get a new diploma. I graduated from the photography faculty of British Higher School of Art and Design in Moscow. 
Photography continues to engage my mind. I am grateful to the people, who have crossed my path and helped me to become who I am.

What do you love about your job?

I love to work with people, create their personal histories and memories. In my opinion my fun approach frees every person to be themselves in front of my camera, revealing their true personalities and emotions. I connect my love of photography with a journalistic sense and artistic flair. I always try to reveal inner beauty of people and the joy of life and show all of this in one given moment. So I like being a family photographer. At the same time I love to work for creative businesses, publishers and photographic agencies. I like the collaborative process. I work in commercial and editorial photography with an emphasis on portraiture. There’s great satisfaction in seeing shots that were made possible by a team of passionate people: make up artists, stylists, producers and clients.

What are some of your favorite places in Melbourne to take photographs?

I like to take portraits in central of the city. There are many beautiful old buildings mixed in with new architecture and the small narrow streets are quite lovely. Also my favorite place for the fashion and family photo shoots is Sorrento beach. I can remember getting there really early on a morning, when the weather was little bit foggy. The clouds stayed for quite some time, creating a special mood.
