We recently connected with Ksenia Vasenev and have shared our conversation below.

Ksenia, looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. We’d love to have you retell us the story behind how you came up with the idea for your business, I think our audience would really enjoy hearing the backstory.

I’ve always had a deep appreciation for the beauty of love and the magic of weddings. Photography has been a passion of mine since I was young, but it wasn’t until a friend asked me to photograph their wedding that I truly discovered my calling as a wedding photographer. Capturing the emotions, the joy, and the fleeting moments of that special day sparked something within me. From that moment on, I knew that combining my love for photography with my fascination for love stories was not just a career choice, but a lifelong pursuit of happiness and fulfillment. Every wedding I photograph allows me to immerse myself in the unique love story of each couple, and there’s nothing more rewarding than being able to document those precious moments that will be cherished for a lifetime.

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to introduce myself to your readers! My journey into the world of wedding photography began with a deep-seated passion for storytelling and a love for capturing life’s most precious moments. After years of honing my skills and exploring various genres of photography, I found my true calling in documenting love stories through the lens of my camera.

At [Your Business Name], we specialize in destination wedding photography, with a focus on capturing the beauty, authenticity, and emotion of weddings held in stunning locations around the world. From intimate elopements in remote destinations to lavish celebrations at iconic venues, we pride ourselves on providing couples with a timeless and artistic portrayal of their love story.

What sets us apart from others in the industry is our unwavering commitment to authenticity and connection. We believe that the best photographs are the ones that capture genuine emotions and tell a story that resonates with the heart. With each wedding we photograph, our goal is to go beyond just taking pictures; we strive to create an immersive experience that allows couples to relive the magic of their special day for years to come.

I’m incredibly proud of the relationships I’ve built with my clients and the trust they’ve placed in me to document one of the most important days of their lives. It’s an honor and a privilege to be entrusted with such a significant responsibility, and I approach each wedding with the utmost care, dedication, and creativity.

Ultimately, what I want potential clients and followers to know about me and my brand is that I’m not just a photographer; I’m a storyteller, a memory-maker, and a passionate advocate for love in all its forms. My work is a reflection of my belief in the power of love to transcend boundaries and create moments of pure magic, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to share that belief with others through my photography.

How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?

Absolutely. One of the most transformative moments in my business journey came when I made the decision to invest in myself wholeheartedly. Recognizing the importance of continuous learning, mentorship, and upgrading my equipment and technology, I took the leap to prioritize my growth and development. This investment not only equipped me with the necessary skills and tools but also instilled in me the confidence and courage to pivot my business to new heights within just a few short years. Trusting in myself and committing to my own education and advancement allowed me to surpass even my wildest expectations, opening doors to opportunities I hadn’t dreamed possible.

We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?

One significant lesson I had to unlearn on my entrepreneurial journey was the belief that success required constant hustle and competition with others in my industry. In the past, I operated under the assumption that competitors were everywhere and that they were all somehow better or ahead of me. However, I soon realized that this mindset was holding me back and fostering a sense of scarcity and lack. Through introspection and growth, I shifted my perspective to one of community over competition and abundance over scarcity. Embracing this new mindset not only alleviated the pressure to constantly hustle but also allowed me to foster genuine connections within my industry and cultivate a sense of abundance and possibility in my business endeavors.
