HELLO/PRIVET! Thank you for visiting my site.
I have been living in the U.S. for almost 20 years now. I was originally born and raised in Ukraine, and now live with my husband in Prosper, TX.
I became a mother in 2017. The life-changing moment that brings a lot of love... And work... and love:) My son is growing and changing so so fast! I needed to capture every moment and milestone of his life for me and him.
"We don't remember days, we remember moments," said Cesare Pavese... So true. Nothing will bring you back to that time and "moments" more than photographs. From kisses to hugs, smiles, cries, running and tickling, and so many more fleeting moments out there... I will be happy to be there for You to capture every single moment that portrays Your Family most authentically.
I love capturing moments that couples and families experience together, and I aim to freeze these moments by creating portraits that are worthy of hanging on the walls of your home.
My story with the camera started in 2014. My husband wanted a photo of a fire-breathing unicorn for the New Year of 2014 (the year of a horse according to the Chinese calendar). Be aware of what you wish. His joke became true in an upstairs room on the green screen and with a little help from photoshop. I have not put down my camera since, and he never got his room back. It became my photo studio instead of his game room. After trying many photography genres, I discovered I enjoy maternity/newborn/kids photography the most. I love to create tiny outfits and custom props and engage all my creativity. I love seeing cute little humans grow. I love taking engaging photographs that tell a captivating story.
Shoots take place in my upstairs studio located in Prosper, TX. I work with controlled studio lighting, simple props, and set designs. The studio offers a stylish environment where we create a sophisticated look no matter what the weather is outside. When the weather is good, I also photograph on location.
