Work with me

Hi, I'm Valeria!

Your personal brand photographer based in the North East, originally from Ukraine, and a lifelong exployer at heart.

My photography journey began over a decade ago, creating images for online platforms and contributing to stock libraries like Shutterstock, Adobe Stock and iStock. This experience honed my eye for detail, kept me in tune with visual trends, and taught me what makes an image not just good – but click worthy.

Today, i work with small and mid-sized businesses to create brand imagery thats full of personality and purpose. Whether you’re launching something new or giving your brand a visual refresh, i’m here to help you stand out with images that truly reflect your story….

Let’s create something brilliant – and have a little fun along the way.

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

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☺️.
