Meet Udi
My name is Elissaveta (Udi) and I am a lifestyle photographer in the Emerald Coast of FL. My love for the craft began at an early age as my family and I traveled extensively around the world. Picture taking was a natural part of my daily life. Throughout my journey this lifestyle has stayed with me and evolved. I have fallen in love, married my soulmate, graduated college, pursued an advanced degree, become a mom, and continue to travel. Everywhere I go on any given day, my mind is taking in the light, colors, people's expressions and interactions - I formulate a mental photograph and frequently an actual photo, since I often carry my camera with me. I am haunted by the reality that time is fleeting. Photography is a way for me to freeze time by capturing those moments making up the substance of our lives - love, family, friendship, the gift of new life, milestones, accomplishments, and everyday simple joys.
If you are looking to capture any of life's moments in their raw essence without staging that "say cheese" smile, then I would love to work with you to tell your story.
