A Journey from Athlete to Artist
For Nataly Danilova, photography wasn't the start of her professional journey, but it has become the pinnacle of her passion and artistry. Growing up, she was immersed in the world of competitive swimming and modeling, giving her a keen understanding of how to pose, light, and capture beauty. However, it was a transition that led her to a career as a photographer, combining her experience on both sides of the camera to make her clients feel confident, radiant, and, most importantly, celebrated.

It wasn’t just about taking photos, but creating an atmosphere where clients could indulge in a tailored experience, one that encompassed professional styling, custom set designs, and the perfect wardrobe for any occasion.
With an eye for detail and a commitment to excellence, Nataly built a private studio. Her studio is a carefully crafted environment with a couture wardrobe of 300+ gowns and newborn outfits.
