About
hello and welcome!
I am Olga, a wedding photographer based in Olney, Maryland.
My love for photojournalism originated in my home city Saint- Petersburg, Russia, where I have studied cultural arts and photography. That is when I fell in love with the beauty of classical art and the interplay of light and color.
After moving to Maryland 15 years ago, I kept my passion for visual arts and studied film at the New York Institute of Photography.
Nine years ago, a friend asked me to shoot my first wedding and I was blown away!. Since then, I've been absolutely enamored with the art of wedding photography.
Fun facts about me
- I was born in Siberia, but do not like or miss winter at all!
- I love to learn! I have received a formal education in Linguistics, History of Art, Nursing, and film
- I am fascinated with psychology and especially interested in emotional intelligence.
- My favorite writer is Feodor Dostoevsky, as his novels are an endless source of exploration of human nature.
