Calm, expressive portrait experiences designed around who you are.
For individuals, families and creatives who value depth, presence and authenticity.
My sessions are relaxed, gently guided and thoughtfully designed so you feel comfortable and fully yourself.
Hi, I’m Irina, a family, newborn and maternity photographer based in Solihull, working across Birmingham and the West Midlands. I also offer branding, boudoir and intimate wedding photography. My focus is on real connection, natural light and honest, emotive storytelling.
For me, photography is about connection. It’s about noticing quiet moments, subtle emotions and the beauty that often goes unseen.
With a calm and intuitive approach, I create space for you to relax and feel safe to be yourself, whether it’s a newborn session at home, a family photoshoot, a personal brand story or a soulful portrait.
My work is influenced by art, nature and the belief that presence matters more than perfection.
This experience is for you if
- You care more about how photographs feel than how many you get
- You want to be guided gently, not directed like a photoshoot
- You want images that still mean something in twenty years
- You want to remember the day, not just document it
I offer portrait sessions for families,
children and meaningful life moments.

Pauline Astel — Personal Branding
“Irina instantly put me at ease and made the photoshoot genuinely enjoyable. Her positive energy helps you relax and be yourself, and the images she created captured different moods and the essence of my creative process perfectly.
I couldn’t be happier with both the experience and the final photos.”

Irina listened to all my wishes, made the process easy and inspired, and captured a moment that felt real and full of life.

My editing approach
I keep editing gentle and considered.
The aim is not to change you, but to support the feeling of the moment.
I work with light and exposure to create balance, refine colour to keep tones natural, and quietly remove small distractions that pull attention away from you.
The result is photographs that feel calm, honest and timeless, with a soft, distinctive atmosphere that stays true to who you are.
Alongside client work, my photography is exhibited internationally and featured in art publications.
These photos featured in VOGUE, ICONIC, DEHAZED, SGUARDO.ART, DODGED and DRAIN
