About Me

I am Mariia (yes, yes - with two "i"s!) and I am so happy you are here!  I'm a professional photographer based in Charlotte NC. I have a passion for capturing moments and emotions through the lens of my camera. My love for photography started at a young age when I was given my first camera, and I haven't put it down since.

I grew up in Russia and moved to the United States with my daughter 6 years ago. I recently married the love of my life, Kevin. We love to travel, hike, and explore new places! I live in Charlotte, NC, but love to travel (Blue Ridge Parkway is my favorite place to be!). 

I specialize in Maternity, Newborn, Family and Couples photography. I find great joy in capturing the beauty and essence of my clients and their loved ones and creating stunning images that they will treasure for a lifetime. I have a keen eye for detail, and I strive to bring out the unique personality and beauty of each person I photograph.

I love to play with natural light and composition to create images that are both beautiful and authentic. Whether I'm working with newborns, families, or couples, my goal is to create an enjoyable and comfortable atmosphere during our shoot, allowing the magic to happen naturally.

I am committed to providing my clients with the highest level of professionalism and quality in everything I do. I take the time to understand their vision and work closely with them to ensure their photos are exactly what they envisioned.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and my photography. I would be honored to capture your special moments and create beautiful memories that will last a lifetime. Please feel free to reach out to me for any questions or to schedule a session.
