From Ukraine to America:

I was born and raised in Ukraine, and several years ago, I made a life-changing decision to move to  United States of America — a land of boundless opportunities.

In 2015, I arrived in the USA with just one suitcase, $100 in my pocket, and ambitious dreams. Uncertain of where this journey would lead, I faced challenging obstacles in securing my visa, but I embraced the motto that guides me to this day: "You will never know if you never try."

Despite my love for travel, nothing compares to the feeling of returning to my photography studio. Here, I partner with brands to craft unique product photography and videography that brings their vision to life.

It's time to bring that vision to life.

Don't see your industry on my site? reach out and be the first!

I work with so many niche product businesses to create the perfect images for social media, e-mails, e-commerce, websites, 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

The quality of the work she produces is unmatched!

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

EMMA ASHLEY
Founder of Honey Glow Hive

Vira is an inspiring photographer. I have been fortunate to have her shoot my skincare product line, and she never ceases to amaze me with her creativity and skill set. 

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!

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.

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.

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, and is reasonably priced. 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!
