Hi there, thank you for visiting my web site. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Yana. I was born and raised in Kiev, Ukraine and in 2013, I moved to USA and now it’s my home. I have never been a photographer but always loved to photograph and capture beauty. I used to be a nurse back in Ukraine then I tried to be a QA Engineer here in USA. But only after my precious little baby girl Anna was born, I found passion and calling in photographing newborns and families. Only after becoming a mom I could fully realize what a miracle these little human beings are, and how much I want to be a part of the first days of their life. They are truly gifts from above. Special thanks to my beloved husband. I couldn't have done my business without him. He's supported and believed in me from the very beginning and who actually taught me the very basics of camera. He encouraged me to take a photography class at City College of San Francisco, and I'm so happy I did it. 

​

My first priority is the safety of a baby and happiness of my clients. I always do my best to meet my client's wishes. My reward is knowing that my photos are hanged on the walls of my client's home creating beauty of interior. I photograph newborns and families in San Francisco and closest cities on location only.  I've finished bunch of newborn/family/couple workshops and tutorials with Ana Brandt and Aoife, Meg Bitton with Niki, Kelly Brown, Amy MaDaniel, Rich Lander. 

​

I look forward to meeting you and create unforgettable memories for you. 

​

Your Photographer,

Yana Gogolitsyn
