Hey,
I'm Andrey.
I never really know what to say in bios, they're like a sales pitch that's not supposed to sound like a sales pitch. So here's my pitch: I've been a photographer for over 7 years and I enjoy working across the industry. My specialties are portraits and architecture, but my passion is in travel and landscape photography. Weddings are an absolute blast, and I've never ever done a newborn shoot. Applying principles from different practices has given me a unique style and perspective that I'm proud of. I've also developed a fully mobile studio system that's designed specifically for my commercial clients, but also works great for portraits and especially neurodivergent clients.
As for an actual bio, that's easy! I grew up as a total nerd who loved books, video games, movies, board games, and Legos. As I got older, I realized that leaving my room was cool too and now I've tried snowboarding, cycling, running, lifting, motorcycling, and rock climbing. I also make the occasional Ultimate Frisbee appearance. Most days though, you'll just find me hanging out at home with my wife, Emily, and my cat, Juniper. It's a good life.
Sic Parvis Magna
My father was a photographer in the USSR - he shot on a Kiev 19 35mm film camera and developed the film in his bathtub. While in college, he traded one of his professors a family photo session in exchange for a passing grade in a class that he was definitely not passing. While he never made photography his career, my father always had a camera around. When I was young, he bought me a small point-and-shoot that started my own love of the art. When I graduated from high school, his gift to me was a Canon Rebel SL1 and that little camera kicked off my journey as a freelance photographer.
At first, I just shot with friends. I took my SL1 everywhere with me and that poor camera got soaked, frozen, and battered all over the continent. Over time, I occasionally got more and more paying clients before I realized I wanted to do this full-time. From there, it was just a matter of building up a client base while working all kinds of day jobs.
Now, I can proudly say this is what I do and I owe it to my friends for practicing with me, my wife for encouraging me, my mom and sister for supporting me, and my dad for sharing his passion.
