Nika Ritshel Ballet & Sport Photographer

Today, Ukraine endured yet another massive missile and drone attack by the Russian Federation. Unfortunately, the photography studio where I work was hit; the windows in some of the rooms were blown out. The good news is that none of the studio’s employees were injured—everyone is safe and sound. Yes, this will create some challenges for our work, but we will continue to create new and interesting photo sessions for you. When you see my photos or videos in your feed, please support us with a like and a comment, because we’re creating art during a very difficult time for us—without electricity, water, or internet. Drones and missiles often fly over our homes at night; it can be very loud and scary, and we don’t sleep all night. But morning comes, and we get up and continue doing our work. I’m not complaining, but I want you to understand the price at which real art is created today in the midst of war. Thank you for your attention ❤️
