Effortless, a little undone, a bit editorial. I shoot the in-between - nothing too posed, nothing forced. Just you, your people, your brand… but elevated.

We’ll pick a space that feels like you - home, beach, somewhere with a bit of mood - and let it unfold naturally. It’s collaborative, intuitive, slightly undone… in the best way.

“Elena’s style is so consistent with who she is – so natural, relaxed, playful and fun, which comes through in the way she approaches her photography. Not over the top, nothing false.”

- Elisha, Sydney

Who you’ll be working with - about me…

My happy place is having good light, camera in my hand, and people to photograph. Having worked in photography for over 20 years in London, my native Lithuania, and now Sydney, I combine my past role as a photographer and digital artist (working on high-profile projects including Top Gear, Dr Who, Sherlock, and Serengeti), with my relaxed aesthetic and understanding of the family dynamic as a mum of young children.

My style has an editorial feel and I use natural daylight and its beautiful variations to give a soft, or raw look to my photos. I love capturing people in comfortable, natural settings, focusing on unexpected moments rather than anything posed or formal. My images feel energetic, connected, free and effortlessly relaxed.

Me, personally

As a family, we make the most of living in Manly. Surfing is second nature to my Aussie partner – his board, plus the buggy, beach and coffee is our weekend recipe. I’ve swapped urban hiking and Vespa riding (definitely high on the happy list) to local bush and beach walks. I’m 100% a people watcher - I love meeting new people, learning about them and as a portrait photographer, I am fascinated with different faces, features and personalities. I’m not an early riser but when it happens, I absolutely love sunrises and the sense of adventure and excitement it brings. I’m like every mum - balancing the work I love to do, with sleepless nights, school runs, coffee with friends and enjoying time with my girls.
