I am a professional photographer and the main field of my photography is in the FINE ART style. I find myself very attracted to this style, the clothes, the old accessories, the texture of the clothes and the scents of the past attract me and I really like to photograph this style. When I take a picture I am drawn so deeply into the work that I forget everything. My mind is all about capturing the moment. I am happy and grateful for the privilege to engage and make a living from my favorite thing, photography. Today I enjoy passing on my knowledge and teaching photographers at the beginning of their journey and being their mentor, which is a great privilege

I am a midwife and a photographer for women, babies, births and families. I love working with women and raise their self esteem. My very special topic is the underwaterphotography- it allows playing with weightlessness, mirroring on the surface, lights and shadows in an unique way.
