I was born and raised in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia. I studied service and tourism at the University of Nizhny Novgorod. For a long time photography was just a hobby. While working as a travel agent for 20 years I brought back beautiful travel shots from my trips.

When our first daughter was born, I wanted to capture every moment of her first steps so I enrolled in a photography course and bought a camera. But I was still working a desk job as a travel agent. In 2022 me, my husband and our two daughters moved to Cyprus. Leaving my office job made me consider photography as a career. I was thrilled when people started to book my shoots. I found new friends and like-minded people. In 2024 we relocated from Cyprus to Florida.  I was delighted to find such a friendly and dynamic community here. My family and I were given such a warm welcome, and I am thrilled to be part of the St. Johns County business community and to collaborate with the amazing team at Generation Media.
