About me

MY STORY

Professional portrait photographer Anastasia Sokyrka in Vietnam, Saigon

It all started when I was 18, looking for an economics textbook in a bookstore and instead, walked out with a photography book that completely captivated me. I didn’t even own a camera at the time, but something about the images and the art behind them sparked a deep curiosity. Not long after, I picked up a Nikon D40, and from that moment, my camera became a part of me.

With no formal training at first, I began experimenting with friends as my models testing angles, chasing light, and often bending the “rules” to find my own style. I took my camera everywhere: through the city, into quiet parks, across familiar backyards — capturing life as it unfolded.

Later, I enrolled in a local photography school where I learned to master my tools and refine my vision.


Today, photography is more than a passion it’s how I connect, observe, and tell stories. I specialize in digital portrait photography, working with individuals, couples, and families to create honest, expressive images. I’m based in Ho Chi Minh City, but always open to travel, so if you have a story in mind, I’d love to hear it.

 

For me, the joy of photography is in capturing the essence of people — the subtle expressions, shared glances, and unscripted moments that make every story unique. That’s what draws me to portrait and family photography: each session is a chance to create something deeply personal and timeless.
