AWAITING TANYA: a portrait of herself for this page, and the alt text for it. The rooftop portrait from the old Lovable site exists locally but she has to confirm she owns it and wants it used.

About me

I'm Tanya. I photograph couples, families and portraits in Porto, for people who live here and for people who are visiting.

I worked in IT for seven years. In 2025 I started photographing full time.

I was born in Donetsk, lived in Odesa and then in Kyiv, and moved to Porto in 2022.

I have a small daughter, so I know exactly how a session with children really goes.

I drive, so I can come to you. A bad taxi ride is basically the reason I got my driving licence.

What people see: beautiful photos by the ocean. What they don't see: batteries, lenses, memory cards, driving, planning, and a lot of love for the process.

I speak Ukrainian, Russian and English. My Portuguese is still in progress.

See you on the other side of the lens :)
