Hi,

I am Katherine!

 I photograph for the past eight years and I have tremendous passion for it. Before this, I've spent the very first twenty years in Ukraine. US became my second home for the past fifteen years. I feel like growing up on one country and living in another allows me to see ordinary things with unique eye.

Above all, I am a mother to a beautiful girl, and a wife to a wonderful man. My favorite hobby is motorcycle riding! And I mean it; if I am not photographing or spending time with family, I am out riding. My personally is positive and and I love to smile. I am pretty blessed in life, and I am thankful for every day I get to do good for others.

Generally, I treat my sessions like fun visits where we get to do whatever we want and have fun with very little rules and limitations. I know I will do anything to keep my subjects happy and I would be silly all day long to get those real smiles. I just prey people understand what I may be joking about over my Russian accent. Amazingly, sooner or later, we connect and session flows! I feel at ease photographing because I know our goals are the same,; and it is to do what's needed to create beautiful images. To me, every client is my best friend and together we are making beautiful memories to keep.

I like to play with my lighting and set up something different for each shoot. I always try to keep adding education and experience to my skill set too. Besides my bachelor's degree in Art with concentration in photography from MSU, I add relevant workshops to my knowledge pretty often. I love to expand and build on what I already good at. And I cannot even describe how thankful I am for all the technological innovations in digital photography that exist today. Photoshop is simply mind blowing! Updating to the next best camera or lens or camera is constant and very exciting for me as well.

Last, but not least, I love fact that I get to meet fascinating people and give them them photos they love. I love the feeling when my client goes, "OMG"!, and then I know know that I added a little goodness into people's lives.
