FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The photoshoot rate is $450 per session, which covers my photography work and all prop preparation. Each session lasts 1–2 hours and can take place outdoors, at your home, or in a studio. Please note: Studio rental fees are covered by the client. For sessions outside the NYC area, travel (train) expenses are also covered by the client.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Each collaboration begins with a video call or a chat, a moment for us to get to know each other better. I introduce myself and learn about your expectations for the photoshoot: the mood you’d like to create, any visual ideas or moodboards you already have in mind, and the emotions you wish to explore or express through the session. Every photoshoot is designed with a deeply personal approach, while staying true to my distinct visual style, blending authenticity, emotion, and aesthetic harmony.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I began my journey as an assistant to a renowned French photographer in Paris, where I worked for four years and learned the craft from within the creative process. Five years ago, I started developing my own artistic vision and personal style. I graduated from the Institute of Visual Arts in Moscow and completed the “Poetry of Photography” workshop. Since then, I’ve been continuously learning, evolving, and refining my visual language.
