Rochester, New York - east coast - and beyond

let's get to know each other

My name is Katia.
I am a wedding and portrait photographer, living in the Finger Lakes Region. I was born and raised in Ukraine, but New York became my home.
Since little girl I watched my father document our family's every day life. I was fascinated by his timeworn film camera, developing process, and seeing the final images my father created. The lesson I learned is that time passes and memories fade, but a photograph will keep the memories unforgettable.

Are you ready to make memories together?

The best thing I could possibly do in this life is what I'm already doing.

How lucky am I to wake up to my dream job each day?


Life is all about people, moments & emotions that we want to hold on to...


Family is my everything. My husband is my best friend, my greatest support, my biggest comfort and strongest motivation. Without him I would of never gotten at the point I am at right now - I love doing life together. I have two beautiful and very active boys whom I love to the moon and back. They are my biggest blessing and bring so much joy into our family. I am saved by God's grace and thank Him for giving me an opportunity to do such amazing things in life.


As your photographer I strive to deliver clean, light-filled images. Images that are both modern, timeless and filled with romance. I will ensure your photographs are an authentic work of art that tell your unique story.


My goal is to capture all the moments, emotions and everything in between of your special day so that you can treasure them for ages. My style is a combination of an Editorial and Documentary approaches which allows me to tell a story of your day with candid, yet done so with some direction and styling.


If this sounds like something you would love for your wedding day then let's connect! I cannot wait to hear your love story!
