I’m Zhenya—a Bay Area photographer focused on real connection and easy, relaxed sessions. I photograph weddings, couples, families, maternity, and also collaborate with creators & entrepreneurs for natural portraits and candid “at-work” images. Ready when you are—let’s plan something that feels like you.
WEDDINGS
I photograph weddings with a candid, connection-first approach, then step in with gentle guidance for timeless portraits. You enjoy the day; I’ll read the light, keep things relaxed, and deliver images that feel like you—with an artistic eye for composition and a creative touch that makes each frame feel special.
COUPLES PORTRAITS / ENGAGEMENT
At the end of our session I will have captured many beautiful photos, and our time together will be a fun and memorable experience in itself. You'll laugh and share tender moments. Shutter clicks will soon fade away and you'll be fully present with each other, not thinking about how wide to smile.
"Think about what you would never want to change about each other."
"Say 'I love you' in a made-up language."
"Share what you admire about each other the most."
FAMILY PORTRAITS
Relaxed, playful, and centered on real connection—perfect for holiday cards or simply remembering this season as it is. We’ll choose a meaningful spot (home, park, favorite walk), keep things easy, and let kids be themselves. You’ll get a mix of candid moments and a few frame-worthy portraits.
MATERNITY
Calm and intimate photo session is ideal for celebrating your pregnancy and marking this chapter before baby arrives. We’ll pick a spot that feels right (at home or outdoors). Expect a blend of natural candids and a few timeless portraits.
