I was born in 1967 in the southern part of the country, Ukraine. My hometown is Nikolaev. I obtained my first camera when I was twelve and it was the beginning of my photography.

I completed 2 years of military service and transferred to the reserves in photo-laboratory assisting and photography assitaning. During this time, I was working at the city’s consumer service centre. After this time, I worked for a long time in wedding photography.

Now I combine the work of an operator of a photo-minilab and a freelance photographer. As is evident from my portfolio, I like to shoot portraits (especially of women). I also prefer these genres: nature and animal photography, cityscapes, fine-art, and digital manipulations.
