Hi! My name is Elina Powers and I'm a photographer based in Aiken, SC. Born and raised in Russia, where I graduated from high school and then studied 5 years in Orenburg State University majoring in foreign languages and teaching. I've lived in Aiken for over 15 years now with my wonderful husband and 4 amazing children, who have been the main inspiration to me. Photography has always been a huge part of my life and became very dear to my heart as I love looking back at my children’s photos as they growing up and that unbelievable warm feeling of sweet memories that sneaks up on you and runs down your cheek and turns into a sweet smile. Being creative, customizing every session to clients' needs and delivering amazing hand edited magical images is my goal and absolute pleasure. Thank you for choosing me to capture precious moments of your loved ones to keep and cherish for years to come! I am forever thankful for that.
