Marianna Petrenko & Sebastian Zavadski

Marianna: I’m a design engineer, stylist, photographer, decorator, and a aesthete in everything I touch, whether it’s photography, travel, or even setting the dinner table. On my personal profile and website, I share galleries of images from various fields where I grow professionally.

My creative journey began with four years of studying at a fine arts school! I explored art history, drawing, painting, composition, and even sculpture.

I fell in love with photography at 19 when my younger sister was born. I convinced my parents to buy a family camera so I could capture her growth and changes every day. It was a film camera, and I even contributed half of the cost, from my saved scholarships!

That same year, I expanded beyond portrait photography to landscapes, nature, and architecture, even participating in national photo exhibitions with my work in these genres. Photography became my hobby for the next 10 years.

After my second child was born, I decided to take a break from my career as a Director of Design and Styling Department for television to focus on my child and creativity. I studied photography, attended several masterclasses in Beauty/Fashion and Fine Art, found my niche in the world of photo art, and founded the event agency SENS.EVENTS.

My work in the world of photography has been highlighted by two solo exhibitions, each serving as an opportunity to tell a unique story through the lens and share my artistic vision with a broader audience.

As a professional stylist and clothing designer, I also offer services such as creating looks for photo sessions, personal shopping, and full styling for women, men, and kids.

Sebastian: I'm an IT engineer, web designer, and photographer. I develop our websites; I set up studio lighting, move decorations, and even create them! I love to travel, and photography is my biggest hobby: I capture all beauty around us: nature, architecture, food, and people in the streets.

Beyond our creative work, we are also parents of four children, their names forming the acronym SENS: Sebastian, Étienne, Naomi, and Stanley. This acronym has become the cornerstone of all our professional ventures: sens.events, sens.studios, and others that are still in development.

We’ve been living in Atlanta for five years, and this year I decided to revive our family business by launching sens.photography.

We have so many ideas and plans for growing in the U.S. photography industry, and we can’t wait to share them with you! Follow us so you don’t miss exciting offers, promotions, and bonuses!
