Hi!

My name is Elena.

I am sensitive to the world, attentive and kind. I live by the call of my heart and strive for harmony — in myself, in relationships, in the frame. I love when life is filled with coziness, humor, travel, nature, like‑minded people, and work that inspires.

I have a degree in economics, but working in the field did not bring me joy. After moving to Poland in 2018, I began a journey of self‑discovery and became passionate about photography. At first it was a hobby — shooting on my phone everything beautiful I came across. Later, my love of cooking led me to the wonderful world of food photography. In 2020 I bought a camera and my professional path began.

Since then, photography has become a big part of my life. After living in Poland for five years, in 2024 I moved to Portugal, to the city of Porto, where I continue to create and be inspired. I constantly grow, learn new things, and hone my skills.

I photograph food and objects — not just as a set of light and composition, but as an opportunity to convey atmosphere, idea, and aesthetics. For me, photography is a form of creativity and a way to share a mood. It is important for me to breathe life into the frame, add meaning and a pinch of magic.

I'm inspired by nature, travel, art and world cuisines.

I love trying different shooting styles and looking for props for them — a beautiful piece of tableware on a store shelf or an elegant twig on a walk.

I know how to listen and hear. When working with brands, I pay attention to the product's philosophy and can suggest how to strengthen the idea and add a visual twist.

I'll be happy to collaborate! Let's create visual magic together.
