camera Canon EOS R, Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5

The start of my career was pretty unusual. When I was 15 I wanted to write a screenplay for an Australian kids show called "Ocean Girl" Okay, so I didn't become a screenwriter, but I suppose it was ever since then I knew I wanted to do something in film/video and it stuck. I then went on to film school and received a four-year degree in business with a concentration in video production. Later on, starting a business in wedding films. However, I knew I wanted more. Although I love doing weddings I wanted to put my talents to use in other uses. I realized after doing some soul searching and taking on new projects, that working with people, businesses, and documenting their niche/specialty was indeed MY specialty. As a photographer and content creator, I love experimenting with new ideas, pushing the envelope, and not necessarily sticking to the status quo. In addition to quality content that helps your business or personal brand, I want to give the client an experience and something to look back on, rather than just a run of the mill photo shoot.

I have been into photography since i was 15 years old (so almost 30 years at this point). I graduated Moscow State Unvercity with a Degree in Photo Journalism. Have worked a freelance for various media outliets in Moscow, Russia. Have started my wedding career in 2003 and have photographed and captured on film hundreds of weddings. Every wedding is unique and the key is to find that something special about each couple and try to reflect that in my images. My background as a photojournalist gave me a good eye for catching those special moments that happen at every wedding, but can easily be missed if not able to recognize and capture them. A successful wedding photographer or cinematographer must have the ability and flexibility to handle any unpredictable situation on a busy wedding day and still deliver consistent quality images. You can trust me with your wedding and your memories!!

Photographer

How did you get started with photography

In 2011, I got started with photography using an entry level DSLR, it was my sister’s gift. I was shooting just for my hobby. I would go out with my camera every day and photograph cool things that I came across in the street, like plants, objects, and my photographer friends. I could develop my skills as soon as I moved to NY in 2014, when I used to work as "Executive Assistant" in a Staten Island office. My husband is a professional photographer and film maker, so he taught me how to shoot and retouch pictures with Lightroom. In 2016, I finally left my office work to dedicate myself fulltime to photography.

What do you love about your job?

I love touching souls with my art. Taking pictures is a true passion for me and always will be.

What are some of your favorite places in New York City to take photographs?

My favorite places to shoot portraits in New York are Dumbo in Brooklyn (between the bridges), Central Park, Grand Central and SoHo.
