Inclusive, Fun & Alternative Wedding Photography in Kent and Beyond

I’m Nastia (she/they), a dog lover, feminist, and 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 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 photography is fun, relaxed 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 welcome all folks.

I’m your cheerleader, friend and wedding photography wizard

I shoot weddings in Kent and all over the UK

I capture the smaller things from the day alongside the spotlight bits. I get the whole story, 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 bilingual in English and Ukrainian, as well as conversational level in Dutch.

Enhanced DBS check and first aid certificate available.
