About me

About Natasha Sokolovska Photographer | Art Director | Entrepreneur

 

Welcome! I’m Natasha, a New York City-based photographer, art director, and entrepreneur  with a passion for crafting portraits that narrate compelling stories. I'm a professional brand photographer with a background in marketing and art direction, specializing in branding and headshots, helping businesses tell their story visually. With over 15 years of experience in the art and photography industry, I’ve dedicated my career to capturing the authentic essence of individuals and empowering them through visual storytelling.

 

Photography Philosophy

 

My work is deeply influenced by renowned photographers such as Vincent Peters, Paolo Roversi, Peter Lindbergh, Annie Leibovitz, and Patrick Demarchelier. I have a profound appreciation for black and white photography, natural light, and the aesthetics of spontaneity and elegance. I strive to capture emotionality and expressiveness in my portraits, embracing the beauty of authenticity over excessive retouching.

 

With years of experience in marketing, I know that branding photography is more than just a headshot—it’s a strategic asset that shapes how you are perceived. Before every photoshoot, I conduct in-depth research to ensure that every image aligns with your brand identity, target audience, and professional goals. My process is designed to tell your unique story, creating imagery that feels natural, authentic, and elevates your presence in your industry.
