Russian-born professional photographer in New York City that excels in wide variety of types of photography from commercial product, fashion, lifestyle, sport and fitness - to corporate and private events - to architectural and landscape - to portraiture and fine art photography.

My strongest suit is the ability to see the light, as well as create complex dramatic and precise lighting, both in the studio and on location. For me photography is not about snapping lucky shots, but rather painting with the light.

My friends gave me nick-name "Black Russian" for having mostly black friends and (as my friends saying) "shooting black people". :-)
