Khrystyna and Sasha Mykhailichenko.
Storytelling in colour, light, and shadow.
A Monday evening at St. Andrew`s Church in Corbridge - where music met memory, and presence met performance.
Swipe through to feel it for yourself. Plus, the details of the evening - unforgettable, and unexpectedly fashionable.

Welcome to the magical world— where toys aren’t just things, they’re tiny time machines.
Broken teddies mended, custom creatures born from stories, and gifts that come with fluff and feeling....all brought to life by the talented Olena of @myohmy.uk.
I had the joy of capturing her magic and left believing in toy miracles. ✨
If you`re a brand crafting meaning and memory, let’s make your story timeless. 📸

Yesterday, I captured golden moments, sweet little scenes with @myohmy.uk at the heart of the Corbridge Midsummer Festival — where wonder meets wide-eyed joy 🧸🌞.
This little one’s encounter with the giant yellow bear was pure delight, and the marketplace buzzed with love, laughter, and local charm.
It`s a joy to capture these real, heartwarming moments 📸.

✨ Weddings aren`t my main gig — brand photography is where I thrive 😍 — but when I do step into your special day, i give it everything i`ve got. 📸
I take on a limited number of intimate weddings and events each year. So if you love my style and think we`d be a great fit, let’s chat. 💌
Primary focus: visual storytelling for brands, creatives, and entrepreneurs.
But for the right people, we make exceptions. 😉

Hi, I`m Valeria - Lera for short - a North East brand photographer. I blend artistic creativity with strategic branding to capture authentic and engaging visuals.
My main goal is to create compelling content that truly represents your business, promoting genuine connections.
People and their businesses matter. I draw inspiration from my clients and the unique essence of their work, infusing each shoot with sophistication and personality. Whether it`s crafting sleek urban portraits, vibrant lifestyle shots, or elegant product photography, I love creating visuals that resonate with your audience.
I believe the photography experience should be effortless, fun, and a true reflection of you and your brand.
When I`m not behind the camera, you`ll find me exploring the cafes, restaurants, and art galleries, or discovering hidden creative spots. I`m also a runner, cyclist, and yogi at heart, finding joy in an active lifestyle. My morning runs during travels are my personal way of saying hello a sleeping new city.
Photography, travel, and an active lifestyle connect me deeply with the world - new businesses, new places, one step, one moment at a time. Whether capturing powerful brand imagery or exploring new streets, my aim is to be present, creative, and inspired. Let`s bring that same passion to your brand, and create something amazing together.

Which cookie are you, really?
Chocolatey and dramatic? Caramel-sweet with a surprise center? Or maybe a little spicy?
I had the best time photographing pastry chef Svitlana @sweetmeats.sm as she whipped up these personality-packed cookies. And yes — there’s a B-roll moment where they crack open like they’ve got secrets to spill.
If you`re an entrepreneur and want photos that show off your flavor — your products, your vibe, your story — let’s make something sweet together!
B-roll, team - @photo_alexkozlov

Had the pleasure of capturing George in action during a garden renovation. It was a big job, carried out with real care, skill, and quiet dedication. Always inspiring to see the hard work that goes into transforming a space.
As a brand photographer, I love documenting the craft and character behind small businesses and the people who make them thrive.
If you have a project you`d like to capture, feel free to get in touch—I’d love to hear from you.
Wishing everyone a great weekend, whether you’re hard at work or enjoying a well-earned rest.

My first time in Bishop Auckland—and I’m hooked.
From the charming streets to the rich history and creative vibe, this town truly surprised and inspired me.
Grateful for the conversations, the scenery, and the energy that made this visit so memorable.
Already looking forward to coming back—with my camera, of course.
And a special thanks to Sarah @sarahcalavera for taking photos with me while I was taking photos of her.
Such a lush moment—brand photographer with brand photos too!

Amazing collab and brand images for the creative Sarah @sarahcalavera.
Loved our photo walk in #BishopAuckland— plus the bonus of great conversation and meaningful reflections on our businesses.
I’m constantly inspired by the incredible people who choose me to capture their stories. Your energy, ideas, and passion spark my creativity every time.
If you`d like to book a shoot, just drop me a DM!

Just wanted to share a small behind-the-scenes walk from a recent brand shoot with Sarah @sarahcalavera. The weather showed up, the city brought its color, and the graffiti walls gave us that extra edge.
Moments like these remind me why I love working with small businesses and bold creatives —there’s magic in the unexpected☺️.

There’s a certain kind of strength that doesn’t need to shout.
I had the chance to capture Elen @elennnno4ka —poised, grounded, and quietly powerful. A true professional in HR.
For me, a business portrait is more than a photo. It’s a window into who you are and what you stand for.
If you are after portraits that speak softly and powerfully. Let`s have a chat..
Your brand photographer,
Valeria
