More about Anna S....
What do you love about your job?
The most valuable parts of this job for me are communication and information. It’s just incredible how deep people are! Unfortunately, sometimes we don’t have time or wish to discover this. Each photoshoot gives me a chance to open up new spheres, details, meet amazing people, to observe beautiful moments of life/creation/inspiration! I’m very grateful!
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
Everything what I’ve learned and my “visual library” help me to build great food and product shots. I love to work with small details, they are important and people appreciate them when we discuss an idea.
It’s very important for me to make people smile, not only for photography, for themselves, to make this moment live long life from generation to generation. To make people feel beautiful, appreciated - because they really are!

A fun fact about this photographer
