BIOGRAPHY

Russian and Ukrainian blood runs equally through my veins, although I am deeply French at heart because I have been living in France for 20 years. I did not hesitate to educate my three children at home, so that they could develope their potentiel and strong points. No doubt this audacity comes to me from the fact that my eldest daughter has Down syndrom and that she has to fight to be a part of society. I admire her gentle strenth which makes people change without any violence. Photography came to me during first covid lockdown. For me, that's the way to share the beauty of simple moments and also to show that the essential, initially invisible to the eyes, can be captured if our hearts are open. Black and white is currently my favorite style although I stay open to changes.
