**This was my very first experience organizing a creative photoshoot — and I think I became so inspired by it that I will definitely be creating many more projects like this in the future. The emotions and feelings you go through on such a day are impossible to compare to anything else.

I especially want to highlight the incredible creative people I had the chance to meet and work with on that sunny day. The team is the most important part of projects like this, and I’m endlessly happy that I was able to bring together such an amazing group of people. The studio was filled with warmth, kindness and comfort — despite the fact that the whole shoot was arranged in the shortest time and was, in many ways, spontaneous.

I’ve been inspired by Oliya Plakitina’s work for a long time — by our collaboration in Montenegro and by her creative projects. So when she announced her trip to Moscow, I simply couldn’t miss the chance to create something together again.

The main theme of our spring shoot was mimosa — symbolizing the farewell to winter and the arrival of spring we were all waiting for. Now this shoot will keep us warm even in the coldest days. I hope you’ll be able to feel the warmth of a million tiny suns too.
