In addition to portrait photography Inna offers oil, acrylic and mixed media paintings. All paintings are produced by Inna personally and not sent to some hourly paid workers abroad.

As a professional photographer Inna’s achievements are too numerus to mention. In May 2020 she her work was displayed on the cover of the Professional Photographer with a feature in the magazine. She became the second photographer in North Dakota to have her work grace the cover of this magazine, which is the voice of professional photographers all over the world.

Inna will capture your true spirit. Inna’s focus is not on your physical appearance. She will focus on your personality.

Her work has been shown in USA and abroad. You will have portraits that your family will enjoy day after day. These will become your legacy. One day those heirloom portraits will be passed on to the next generations.

We cannot freeze time. The personalized guidance session is complimentary. There is no commitment. There is no charge. So, don’t postpone. Call our Minneapolis photographer Studio today and TALK with Inna or have Inna CALL YOU.

Family Photos That Feel Natural

Family photos help preserve connection. Moments change fast, but pictures give you something to look back on with pride. Inna’s sessions focus on comfort and warmth. No stiff posing. No forced expressions.

Every session is designed to bring out interaction, laughter, and real emotion. The result is a collection of photos that reflect your relationships and your story as a family.

Branding Photos That Match Your Personality

Audiences connect with visuals. A branding appointment can show your daily work, your own style, and your values all in one image set. Inna works closely with professionals and creatives to produce creative photos that feel authentic.

Photos can include portraits, working snaps, lifestyle settings, or simple environmental details that give context to your work. Each session is planned to reflect your tone and style.

Senior Photos To Capture the Year

Graduating is a big deal. Senior photos should reflect the energy, interests, and future goals of each student. Inna works with seniors to plan a session that feels relaxed and personal.

Outfits, backgrounds, and settings are chosen to reflect personality. These aren’t standard school pictures. These are images that students and parents want to keep, frame, and share.

Confident Headshots That Work for You

Your headshot speaks before you do. It appears on company websites, social platforms, email footers, and publications. That image shapes how others view you.

Inna designs every appointment to help you look confident and approachable. With careful lighting, simple direction, and a focus on natural expression, you’ll walk away with photos that help you stand out in your industry.

Fine Art Portraiture That Highlight Personal Branding and Presence

Our fine art portraiture focuses on refined photography that brings out your true colors in a clean, elegant style. These images go beyond basic snaps. They are carefully planned, beautifully lit, and thoughtfully composed to reflect your character and emotion.

Inna combines her background in art and photography to produce high-end pictures with a timeless feel. The result is a canvass that looks natural, polished, and worthy of display. If you’re planning a personal shoot or updating your decor with family pictures, these images are made to last and designed to stand out in your gallery of memories.

Dance Photography That Shows Motion and Strength

Capturing dancers takes more than timing. It takes an understanding of movement and emotion. Inna captures moments where posture, flow, and presence all meet.

Each shoot is built around your dance style and performance goals. Whether you’re a solo performer or part of a company, Inna’s images highlight form and feeling in every frame.

FAQ about Our Studio


INNA’s downtown Minneapolis studio is open – by appointment only–between 10am and 7pm Monday through Saturday. Contact her to make an appointment. Email or call for a time convenient for you.

First, INNA understands how you may feel. She will tell you she doesn’t enjoy being photographed either. Knowing this natural anxiety, she strives to “connect” with each of her subjects. Her energy and enthusiasm will quickly help you relax and allow you to have fun. Photographing people is her passion and she puts her heart into each session. She will work with you until she believes she has captured the “real you.”

Using the Rembrandt lighting style, she brings life and depth to the photographs of her subjects. This method of lighting is centuries old, developed by the world-famous painter. The best way to understand her technique is to visit her studio, see her samples.

Pricing depends on the type of appointment, length of the appointments, and what’s included in your final gallery. A family photoshoot may have different pricing than a full fine art portraiture package. Inna offers flexible options that reflect her experience, style, and the care she puts into every snap. Each appointment includes time for prep, a relaxed experience in front of the camera, and professionally edited images that feel meaningful and timeless.

Inna photographs subjects in her Minneapolis studio and on location throughout the Twin Cities. Family photography can take place in local parks, engagement photography can happen downtown or in natural light settings, and artistic images can be created in more intimate spaces. She photographs across Minnesota and beyond, offering creative ideas for any setting that fits your vision.

Inna is an award-winning lifestyle photographer with more than 15 years of experience capturing real moments through creative photo sessions. Her portfolio includes headshots, maternity images, boudoir, family pictures, and engagement pictures. People love her calm presence behind the camera and her ability to connect with people of all ages. She brings both insight and care into every photo appointment.

Absolutely. You don’t need to know how to pose before your appointment. Inna gently guides each client throughout the shoot, helping bring out authentic moments that reflect your personality. If you’re doing profile images for work or a couple’s shoot to celebrate your next chapter, Inna makes the process feel easy and comfortable.

Choosing the right outfit helps tell your story. Inna offers tips during your planning call to help you feel confident and look polished. Neutral tones, soft textures, and simple pieces often work well for photoshoots, maternity images, or family images. You can bring options to your appointment and she’ll help you decide what works best on camera.

The cost of a photo session depends on many factors. The best way to answer the question is to talk with INNA. Schedule a complimentary planning session. Once you visit with her about your expectations, she will establish your sitting cost. To be clear, the sitting (session) cost includes INNA’s professional photography fee, but does not include prints.

Of course there are many variables to establish a session cost. Are you looking for a simple business portrait (head-and-shoulders) in the studio or a portrait of a family of eight in your home? Are you planning your high school senior portraits – in-studio and outdoor – or maybe a highly stylized Masterpiece Portrait of your young daughter? A brief conversation with INNA will help her better understand your goals, enabling her to give you a session cost. Call her to schedule a complimentary planning session in her studio in downtown Minneapolis or to set up a telephone conversation.

Whatever you wish. Some people like the more traditional, formal setting of the studio where light and the elements can be controlled. Others desire a more casual, outdoor setting. Some like the choice of both. Whatever you’d like, INNA can accommodate. Visit with INNA and discuss your thoughts. She will make the experience fun and memorable.

This is a question INNA can answer after your session. Every situation is unique. It all depends on the number of poses, clothing changes, locations and techniques used in creating your portraits. There is no “standard” answer, but at the end of your session, INNA will let you know when your proofs will be ready for viewing.
