In 2002, Marina moved to the United States where she was determined to find a new career with an artistic lifestyle that would fit her creative personality. With directing as integral part of her creative personality, she managed to find it in the art of photography which had been her hobby for a long time, and later grew into her vocation and business.
Every photo session Marina creates includes a little theatrical performance, in which the individual posing for the picture can feel as if they are actors on the stage. At the same time Marina is capturing images, she is trying to open up the personal identity and show the inside world of her models. Every photo project that she creates represents the original needs of her clients and her own artistic vision, looks unique and special.
