My name is Polina and I am a fashion photographer in Dubai.
From 2010 I started making photoshoots in Saint Petersburg and in 2012 I moved to Florence, Italy to study at the prestigious Accademia Italiana which is also accredited by Nottingham Trent University UK in Photography and New media.
After graduation in 2015 I made street style and reportage pictures during Milan Fashion Weeks and Pitti Uomo for on-line and printed magazines, collaborated with fashion bloggers, making catalog and lookbook photoshoots for different brands in Russia and Italy. I also was an official photographer of Kids Time Group and Creative Summer Centre in Forte dei Marmi, Italy for 4 years.
In 2019 I moved to Dubai and was working as a wedding photographer and editor for a local company and I managed to photograph more than 200 events over the course of 2 years.
Back to fashion I made content photography for different bloggers and reportage photography from runways during Dubai Fashion Week and Middle East Fashion Week.
As a photographer in Lincoln Holding in 2023 I was creating content photography for different outlets such as food photography, life style, fashion, reportage, interior, portraits.
Living and working as a photographer in three different countries with different cultures has influenced my style and how I see the world through my lens.
I was published in magazines such as Fashion Collection, Forbes Life, London Daily Post, Grazia Italia, Harper's Bazaar, Forte, Bimbi sani & belli, Buro 24/7, and DFashion Magazine.

Education

Unique experience
My journey as a professional photographer began in 2010 in St. Petersburg, and since 2012 it has continued in Florence and Milan.
Over these 13 years, I managed to work in various areas of photography: shooting fashion shows at Milan Fashion Weeks, reportage photography from exhibitions and presentations, working at Pitti Uomo in Florence, street style and fashion, model tests, portrait and family photography, shooting for the online shops and catalogues.
I have collaborated with bloggers and large companies, my photographs were published in magazines such as Grazia Italia, Fashion Collection, Forte, Bimbi Sani & belli and others as well as in online publications.
I currently live in Dubai where since 2019 I worked for 2 years as a wedding photographer: I photographed more than 200 local Arab weddings.
Afterwards, I returned to freelancing again: I collaborate with bloggers and content creators, make pictures for different brands.

Quality
Thanks to my experience and professional equipment I create very high quality photographs, use the latest versions of retouching programs, and constantly study new techniques and methods of shooting and processing photographs.
With the help of retouching I achieve the perfect picture, ready for publication in any magazine. And if you are not a fan of glossy photo but prefer maximum naturalness then the quality of the original will also be at its best.
If you like to share photos on social networks then I am also preparing an additional format for the Internet that will allow you to post them without losing quality. You can appreciate this by visiting my photo blog.

Blog
Individual approach
I can create any content you need as a brand or a blogger. I always search the best ways to make your idea come true. I can be a team member or work individually.
As for personal photoshoot it is important for me to show your personality, whether it is portrait or family photography, model tests or weddings. For every client I select the most comfortable way of photoshoot, adding my vision to get a beautiful shot and creating a relaxing atmosphere during the photoshoot.
It doesn't matter if you have experience of posing in front of a camera or this is your first photoshoot ever, I will help you with advice.
I create photographs that you want to print and put frame, but it will be difficult to choose just one.
