Svetlana Larina

Warmly welcome everyone!
My name is Svetlana Larina, originally a native of Moscow, Russia, now based in Kuopio, Lakeland, Finland where I moved about four years ago. 

I am a photographer with 11 years of experience specializating in portrait, reportage and product photography with a passion for the artistic art.

I am a commercial photographer who was started a little bit more than 11 years ago with reportage and photostock photography. It was a great experience for understanding the quality of photography and what kind of photos client would like to get.

Parallelly I am a graduate of Moscow University with a degree in mathematics. It helps me in my photography work to structure all the tasks of photo producing from client’s communication and photoshoot planning to printing the photos.

A couple of years ago I decided that it’s not enough. Nowadays deeply diving I study photography and media content in Kuopio. Additionally I take part in photography courses and art masterclasses all the time, increasing my technical and art skills in this field.

My Studio

Immediately after moving in, I started to install and to equip my own photo studio. Nowadays I own photo studio fully equiped with natural and artificial light, light modificators and some other strange things like shiny cardboard for cake and tweezers.

Definitely this is my personal place of vitality. I do love to be a light artist in the full sense of the word: to catch the reflexes, to make shadows soft or hard.

Being not only a food photography addicted person, but also a lover of cooking, I have equipped my kitchen appliances from the oven to the pasta machine and barbecue in the backyard of my house.

So I can cook everything and take photos before the dish has cooled or faded.

My collection of photo props, surfaces and backdrops is pretty good and you can see how it works throught my product and portrait photos.

My collection of photo props is pretty rich. Additionally it is constantly updated.

Some of props I make with my own hands, sometimes real treasures come across to me in secondhand stores. However I constantly replenish the set.

In addition to working in my studio, I shoot in natural light locations as well as on a client’s location, using my own lighting kit if needed.

If a photographic task requires it, I shoot at the client’s place

My equipment lets me to have such kind of photography work trips.
