My journey in photography began seven years ago, although I didn’t realize it at the time.

In Ukraine, I owned two dining establishments and managed a large team of baristas and chefs. However, content, marketing, and community building were entirely my responsibility. Realizing the power of Instagram, I found myself in my first photography school. Back then, I was primarily interested in product photography, food photography, and composition, as I was convinced that I was only going to learn how to create perfect content for my business social media.

How wrong I was.

At that very first photography school, I tried much more than I had planned: studio photo sessions, portraits, photo walks, and love stories. Gradually, I began to understand that photography was more than just a tool for me—it was a means of self-expression, a unique form of art.

On the other hand, my social networks were rapidly evolving, including my personal one. I started ordering personal and family photo sessions because I wanted to share my values through my Instagram, including moments spent with family and stories from my journey as a mother, not just as an entrepreneur.

I quickly realized that these photo sessions held not only professional interest for me but also immense personal value, far beyond their cost. When the war began, their value grew exponentially—after all, it was no longer possible to take photos in the Kherson Desert, and it may not be possible for a long time. Those moments, those states of being, and those versions of ourselves—like when our daughter was so tiny—could never be recreated. Yet all these beautiful shots from my life are now safely kept in my photo albums, which I was fortunate to take with me from the occupied territories.

In a way, this shaped my passion for family photography. Being a mother myself, I understand how quickly everything changes and how important it is to pause, savor, and preserve these moments together. This is the value I strive to create.

Now I live and work in Paris—a city that belongs to many, a city of a thousand shades and moods. It was once my dream, and now I am happy to capture your dreams coming true here: about Paris, about a new version of yourself, about true love, or about the gentle embrace of a child.

Your feelings and emotions are always at the center of my focus. If this is what you want to see in your photos, maybe you’ve found your photographer in Paris!.
