I was born in Sevastopol in 1983. I received a master's degree in management and worked as a business consultant in advertising, marketing and business planning. But photography has always been in my life, my father showed me how to develop film since childhood, and you couldn't enter our bathroom without knocking because there was a red light on and the process of making photos was going on.
Working in marketing, I had to work with photographers and I dreamed of realizing my ideas without an intermediary. Over time, I began to study photography, and in 2011 I completely changed my profession to photographer. I worked in Crimea until 2014. And in 2014 I had to move to Kyiv and then to Bucha. I worked in different genres, and for the last 8 years I have been working as a commercial and food photographer. I took photos for both restaurants and various manufacturers. My portfolio includes the following clients: Unilever (TM Cornetto), Nestle, Hyatt Hotels Corporation, Ashan, Bayadera Group (TM Koktebel, First Guild), SAMNA, SHO, SushiYa IAMTHE, Zafferano, AROMA KAVA, Avalon, Ghost, BAO, NAM, Fabius and many others.
I do my own styling and retouching. My work has been used in many publications for advertising, in articles and on covers, including the cover of the Maiami Herald 2013-2014 art almanac, as well as for packaging and various printed products.
