As a child growing up in Ukraine, I was surrounded by nature and my grandmother’s garden. In school, my interest in the arts programs was reinforced by my father’s interest in photography. With a masters degree in management in informational design and advertising, my academic direction was combined with my tendency to always carry a camera and capture my friends and family. However, my full time commitment to photography didn’t happen until a few years later.
I immigrated to Miami. Living in this international city, full of life and movement, many interesting people pushed me to start my career in photography, and I began to capture fashion and lifestyle images, focusing on small brands and making lifestyle shots for clients.
