Inclusive, Fun & Alternative Wedding Photography in Kent and Beyond

I’m Nastia (she/they), a dog lover, feminist, and inclusive Kent wedding photographer based in between Folkestone, Canterbury and Dover in Kent, and I’m here for all the people who can’t and won’t fit in a box.

You might  be planning a more traditional wedding but want your photographs to be unposed and a documentary wedding photographer to capture real memories of the day. Maybe you’re an LGBTQ+ couple looking for a photographer on the same page. Or you’re neurodivergent or disabled and want someone who gets it.

My documentary photography is fun, relaxed, candid and I’m all about you being comfortable and seen. You don’t entirely fit the traditional profile, and neither should your wedding! I’m totally on board with that and offer space to discover what your wedding celebration can be.

If you care about real memories, connection, representation, inclusivity, accessibility - then I am the wedding photographer for you!

I’m your cheerleader, friend and wedding photography wizard

Based in Dover, I photograph weddings in Kent and all over the UK.

I capture the smaller things from the day alongside the spotlight bits. I photograph the whole story of your wedding day, all the emotion, the candid and the special moments. Those photos and memories you can cherish forever.

I specialise in reportage/documentary wedding photography with a splash of contemporary (ie artsy fartsy when the situation permits)!

I am passionate about weddings and the wedding industry being inclusive and accessible to everyone. We still have a long ways to go, but I have hope that together we can make a difference. I’m big on representation and my client’s safety and comfort so please let me know how I can be better.

I am bilingual in English and Ukrainian, as well as conversational level in Dutch.

Enhanced DBS check and first aid certificate available.
