Hi, I’m Vira - your new favorite photographer to work with.

I specialize in product photo + video content for beauty, skincare, and fragrance brands who want visuals that convert - not just collect likes.

With a background in sales, customer service, strategy, and creative direction, I create content that reflects your brand and resonates with your audience at every stage of the buyer journey.


Bringing Stories to Life, One Visual at a Time

I work with so many niche product businesses to create product photos & videos for social media, e-mails, websites, retail stores and more. That's why I named my own business Cat in the Soup - a saying from back home in the Ukraine that means nothing is left out (and a little bit of everything!)

KIND WORDS

KIND WORDS

Every detail is meticulously planned and executed

Vira is a brilliant photographer with unmatched work ethic. Every detail is meticulously planned and executed, and her creative vision takes whatever you have in mind to the next level. Her work completely elevated the look and feel of my e-commerce site. I continue to be impressed with the photos she captured of my perfume collection and receive so many compliments on them. Highly recommend!

What I like most is that I can send a product to her and I don't have to worry about a thing.

Working with Vira has always been a pleasure. She is easy to work with, very passionate about her work, communicates very well. What I like most is that I can send a product to her and I don't have to worry about a thing - she uses her own creativity to make beautiful and professional images and video that always surprise me in the best way. I look forward to continuing to work with her and I highly recommend her!

The visuals really brought our products to life. It was such a smooth, enjoyable process...

Vira delivered 12 beautiful images and 3 stunning videos for our campaign with Heritage Store. The colors were spot on. And the visuals really brought our products to life. It was such a smooth, enjoyable process, and we’ll definitely keep Vira in mind for future photography and video needs!

I am always impressed with the amount of innovation she puts into her shoots.

She is an incredible artist, and I use the word "artist" because she doesn't just take photographs, she creates moments that evoke emotion with her photography. I am always impressed with the amount of innovation she puts into her shoots. She has an eye for color, and backgrounds that create a story for the viewer. She seems to bring the subjects to life, and give them personality. Something most artists aspire to, but Vira seems to nail it every time!

I promise you don't want to pass it up. 

If you have the opportunity to work with Vira (Cat in the Soup Studio), I promise you don't want to pass it up. Working with Vira has been not only such a breeze, but truthfully a huge blessing to my brand. Not only is she extremely professional, communicative, and just all around seems to be a really good, genuine person (something that brand owners like myself HUGELY value)But the quality of the work she produces is unmatched. I can't get over the crystal clear quality, trendy style, and vibrant colors that Vira captured in her project for my brand - Honey Glow Hive. She is truly a gift to the world of content creation.

I went through so many terrible photographers before I found her and it has been the utter most pleasure so give her my vision and see it made reality

I feels like Vira was always meant to be my photographer and create beautiful luxury photography and videography for my business. I went through so many terrible photographers before I found her and it has been the utter most pleasure so give her my vision and see it made reality. Very detail oriented, punctual and kind. Even when I give the vaguest details she still captures the essence of what I want perfectly.

Her shots are always unique to my product despite her now working with several skincare lines, which is impressive!

I am so thankful for Vira & the amazing job she does with my Bello Tallow products. Her shots are always unique to my product despite her now working with several skincare lines, which is impressive! She is creative, professional & so easy to work with. Most importantly I always feel I can share my true opinion of a shot & she actually appreciates the critique as she wants to grow her business & improve.  She has been with my company since we both started our businesses in 2021 & I have been inspired by her growth & dedication to her craft.

Her professionalism and creativity have added immense value to the visual of my brand

I wanted to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude for the incredible work Vira has done for my brand. Her professionalism and creativity have added immense value to the visual representation of our products. The photos she captured are not only visually stunning but also perfectly convey the essence of our brand.

Her results blew me away! I absolutely loved her attention to detail and the way she made my seasonings look so mouth watering. 

Had the pleasure of meeting Vira at a local farmers market a while ago. She shared with me some of her amazing works with others and so I asked her to shoot some product photos for my new line of seasonings. She brought my marketing and advertising to a whole new level. I’ll continue to use her and highly recommend her services.
