About me

Photography was never meant to become my life — and yet, over time, it quietly did.

I received my first camera at the age of twelve. At the time, it felt like a passing curiosity. The spark didn’t last, and I moved on — unaware that years later, the same spark would return with far greater intensity.

I grew up in a small town in Russia, later moving to Novosibirsk, and eventually to Moscow. It was there that photography found me again. What started as a simple shoot for a friend unexpectedly turned into something more. The response was strong, encouraging — and it pushed me to take the craft seriously.

For the next two years, I immersed myself in studying photography — exploring light, form and character. I was deeply influenced by masters such as Richard Avedon, Helmut Newton, Annie Leibovitz and Erwin Olaf. Their work shaped my eye, but finding my own voice became my true goal.

Over time, my images began to appear on magazine covers and online platforms. In 2013, I compiled a selection of my work into a limited-edition photo book.

In 2016, I moved to France, where I now live and work.

Today, photography is no longer something I do — it’s how I see, how I feel, and how I interpret the world.

It is not just my profession. It is my language.
