Hi guys! My name is Sofia Fateeva and I am a starting photographer! I first started taking pictures when I was 5, stealing my brother's camera, that was probably the size of my head and arranging my dolls for the photoshoot. After that I went to Art school for 4 years, Music School for 7 years and lived in 3 countries. I started seeing the World, nature and cultures different, it was all beautiful to me more than ever! I wanted to capture every moment and share it, so people who don't get opportunity to explore the World like me, can look at my photos through my eyes (or, camera lens I guess haha). But I really wanted my photos to make more change, I just didn't know how. Luckily, 2 years ago I was babysitting this beautiful 6yo girl who has Autism, Grace. She is my biggest fan, my best model and my biggest hype man! She told me my photos made her calm and she loves drawing them. I started learning more about Autism and realised, here is where I can make a change! My brother, Andrey Fateev, is a professional photographer, and all of the money from his photoshoots is getting donated into the organisation. I don't want to sell my photos yet, but I would love to ask you to help us make the change! If you will be downloading any of my photos, please try to donate into "Great Society Inc". Of course, I can't check, and it'll be a pleasure if you just download my photos, but donating will take 5 minutes of your time and any amount will matter, all together it will help kids with Autism! Currently, I am a student at UCSB, pursuing my dream of becoming a doctor.
