  I recently worked with Sofia and Ivan to get new headshots, and I had such a blast. They really made me feel like a supermodel, and gave me amazing direction that I'm going to be utilizing anytime I ask someone to take a photo of me haha. They are both very pleasant and welcoming, and the atmosphere really strikes a perfect balance between professional and personable. I will 100% be returning to work with them again, and I am so happy with the results I got. 10/10 recommend.

  I was visiting NY and wanted to capture myself in different moods. I had a specific vision and was very particular. Ivan and Sofia met and exceeded my vision in the best way possible. I can't wait to be back in NY to shoot more stuff with them.

SOFIA

CREATIVE AND OPERATIONS

Sofia’s photography journey began during her high school years when she took her inaugural photography course, learning the art of developing photographs in the darkroom. Capturing visual images that she enjoyed was the genesis of her passion for photography. Although her career took her to the world of accounting and consulting, capturing images always stayed with her.

She became serious about photography when she co-founded a burlesque production company and was the official photographer for the performers and shows. This led her to delve deeper into the art of portraiture and posing.

Today, she is involved in all aspects of running the studio from client consultations to directing a photoshoot session to post-production editing.

IVAN

Photo and Video Specialist

Throughout his photography and filming career, Ivan has acquired a wide spectrum of production techniques, from cinematography and editing to motion graphics and visual effects.

He is a nerd when it comes to cameras, lighting equipment, accessories, and editing techniques. He is skilled with lighting and can light a space according to what mood you’re in. His profound knowledge in this regard is a testament to his dedication, even if it occasionally delves into the realms of technical minutiae, much to the amusement of Sofia.

If you have an idea for a photoshoot or a project, chances are he’s already crafting a perfect scene and determining what equipment he needs to bring your vision to life.

Sofia and Ivan share a love of visual storytelling through the lens. They love talking about and bringing creative visions to life. With their distinct styles and complementary skills, their creative partnership has elevated their craft to new heights.
