Inspired by the films of Jim Jarmusch, Wim Wenders, and other iconic artists, I embarked on a project called "Perfect Days." As a hopeless romantic, the love story genre has always held a special place in my heart. Moving to New York, I discovered that this vibrant city, with its countless love stories and incredible people, is the perfect backdrop to explore and develop this genre further. Now, I bring this exact same documentary, indie-film approach to weddings and elopements — capturing your celebration unapologetically, just as you are.
POETRY OF LIFE
My mission is simple: to poetize the authentic moments of your life. I believe that every love story is unique and deserves to be preserved, with all its trials and triumphs. Whether it's the quiet routine of your cozy home, a stroll down your favorite streets, or the bold, emotional celebration of your wedding day, I want to capture these elements and turn them into lasting memories.
During my migration journey, I learned that home is wherever we are, and I've come to appreciate the beauty in our routines. Even the smallest spaces or non-traditional wedding venues can be transformed through cinematic lighting and honest, documentary storytelling.
CAMERA, ACTION!
Before we start filming your story — whether it’s a lifestyle session or your wedding day — I ask the essential questions:
1] How did you meet?
2] How do you spend your perfect days together?
3] What are your shared interests and favorite places?
From your answers, I create a storyboard, and then, we're ready to shoot. Let's work together to preserve your perfect days and the emotions that make them special.
From the historic streets of Yaroslavl, Russia, to the vibrant pulse of New York City, my journey as a photographer has been shaped by diverse cultures and cinematic inspirations.
I specialize in emotive indie wedding and lifestyle photography that bridges my European roots with American storytelling. People often say they can feel my images— each frame carefully crafted to capture not just moments, but atmospheres.
With a background in fine art photography and a passion for filmmaking, I create visual narratives that resonate across cultural boundaries. Whether it's a romantic cityscape, an intimate portrait, or the raw energy of a wedding reception, I strive to infuse each shot with the depth of a beloved film scene.
When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me whispering to plants, knitting, or hiking with my husband—my high school sweetheart and fellow adventurer. These personal passions fuel my creativity and bring authenticity to my work.
