Hi I’m Olesya
Helping my father in his darkroom as a child led me first to an advanced art education.
I earned a degree in Fine Arts that, complemented by Graphic and Digital Design instruction at New York City’s renowned PRATT Institute, gave me a rare multi-media perspective.
I learned the vast difference between shooting a picture and envisioning what every image can be.
What Clients Are Saying
The best photographer
The best photographer I have ever encountered, ever. Professional, kind, patient, and caring. I will never use anyone else.

Olesya is such an amazing person
We booked the infant/family photo session for our newborn 3rd child and had an incredible experience. Olesya is such an amazing person and incredibly patient with our family. She spent hours getting the perfect picture of our new baby and his siblings and our family portraits. Worth every penny and now we have amazing pictures to last us the rest of our lifetime.
