Hi, I’m Milena!
A joy-chasing photographer
based in Halifax
Home has taken many forms over the years: all over Ontario, Melbourne, and now Nova Scotia. Living in so many different places has made me deeply curious about people and the little, honest ways they connect. Finding these intimate moments is something that’s come to shape the way I photograph love and relationships ♡
I began taking photos when I was old enough to hold a camera and first fell in love with photography in a darkroom developing film. That analog magic still influences my work today: I love a good grainy moment as much as I love a crisp photo.
When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll probably find me barefoot in the grass, identifying every wildflower I can. I live for cozy mornings with my partner and our two cats, homemade everything, and any chance to get my hands messy with something creative.
If you’re looking for a photographer who will hype you up, make you laugh, and capture the big and quiet magic of your love, let’s talk.
And if you’re still worried about being in front of the camera, have no fear! I promise I’ll be the silliest in the room.

Fact 1
I share my editing chair with two cats who insist they're also part of the creative process.
02.
Fact 2
There's a huge chance I'll point out local flora and sneak a few nature facts in during our shoot...Consider it a complimentary bonus!
03.
Fact 3
I’ve photographed couples on cliffs, carousels, and canoe docks, but I still get giddy every time someone says “we just want to have fun with it.”

Fact 4
I might be a photographer, but I can’t resist an art project, whether it’s painting, knitting, or DIY-ing my own props for shoots.
