About Natalia Katelnytska

Hello! My name is Natalia. I am 39 years old. I was born and raised in Kyiv, Ukraine, but I have been living in France for the past two years.

I hold a degree in psychology, but fifteen years ago, my career took a new turn when I started creating handmade leather clothing and accessories of my own design. Unfortunately, with the onset of war, my business collapsed, leading to the loss of my business and the will to live.

Photography became my lifeline, helping me emerge from depression and start afresh. Over the past two years, I immersed myself in the history of photography, studying various photographers and developing my style. I am deeply passionate about art photography, conceptual, and street photography, finding inspiration in the expressive and creative approach to depicting the world. Roaming the streets, capturing unique moments and unexpected shots has become more than just a hobby for me; it's a way to escape the daily routine and find inspiration. Street photography has become my source of tranquility and joy, with each shot reflecting a little piece of my world and perception of the surrounding reality.
Looking ahead, I aim to further develop my photography skills, constantly seeking new challenges and opportunities for growth.
