WHO I AM

HELLO! I AM YANA SHPITSBERG

and I have two personalities!

One of them is a successful destination wedding and couple photographer based in Rome, Italy.

 

She has already hosted more than 20 workshops in different countries including Italy, Portugal and Hong Kong. Back in Russia, she had a successful offline photo school with more than 100 students.

 

The second one is an Artist who loves the wildest nature and transformative experiences. That one is also keen on Vedic astrology. But the most important thing is that she was in a creative burnout and was going to quit photography until she found her True Ideas and her Creative Voice on the Spanish Islands.

 

Her Mission is to help you find yours!

 

This is her first Art Retreat and she takes this mission more than seriously!
