About me

Hi! I'm Natasha,

a NYC-based photographer, art director, and entrepreneur. I'm 40 years old and living in New York. I create intimate portraits that tell a story.

My favorite topic is Women and their lives - experts, entrepreneurs, business owners, artists, moms, and grandmoms). I'm exploring the concept of a Modern Woman and documenting them through my photographs. Who is she? What drives her? What fears and dreams shape her path? Does she balance a career and family? What is her motto and inspiration?

I don't like plastic faces and too much Photoshop editing. It's very important to me to remember the true beauty of a person in the current period of life. Inspired by Vincent Peters, Paolo Roversi, Peter Lindbergh, Annie Leibovitz and Patrick Demarchelier I like black and white photography as well as natural light, emotionality, expressiveness, spontaneity, elegance, and so-called "random frame aesthetics". 

My current areas of study and personal interest include photography, visual marketing, personal transformation, positive thinking, and metaphysics. I'm working on my personal photo project dedicated to the emergence of women in the world. 

My mission is to empower people by revealing their innate potential and authentic beauty through my photography, capturing their essence and inspiring them to embody their highest selves. I aim to motivate them to embrace the present moment, pursue their life's purpose, and fulfill their mission. Additionally, I strive to assist individuals and small businesses in expressing their missions authentically through visually compelling photographs.

I’m excited to share that my photograph from the series “The Moment of Truth” has received an Honorable Mention in the prestigious New York Photography Awards!

Being recognized by such a prestigious competition is an incredible honor and a testament to the power of visual storytelling. "The Moment of Truth is my photography project that explores the delicate intersection of vulnerability and empowerment. The images in this series capture authentic moments when the subject's inner strength and individuality come to light. The project celebrates raw, unfiltered self-expression, showcasing the beauty of confidence and self-acceptance.

Thank you to the judges and the New York Photography Awards for this recognition. I’m inspired to continue creating impactful, cinematic visuals that resonate deeply.
