my visuals aim to capture the space between the truth and a dream state. I am inspired by nature and design, the balance between raw details and ethereal imperfections.

I was born in Yerevan, Armenia and raised in Los Angeles, California. as a proud immigrant and lalien, I am inspired to document culture and community, especially through the lens of women and their experiences.

my latest project Our Divine Roots is a portrait and interview series exploring cultural identity and spirituality of women in nature across LOS ANGELES

i find the most serenity while traveling and exploring with a film camera. it makes me feel present, grounded, at peace, and interconnected with the universe.

I created demais studio with the intention that my photographs bring an existential, calming, and healing energy into your space through fine art prints and luxuriously crafted notecards for yourself and your loved ones.

education / Background

I have always been intrigued by human behavior. My curiosity led me to an education in communications, followed by a career in marketing and branding. There, I was drawn to the creative side of my work, gravitating towards photography, writing, AND STORYTELLING. I found the most joy communicating visually, so i left the business side to pursue a photography career and never looked back.

my unique experience behind the lens as well as on the brand side has given me better insight into client needs and creative direction in order to create impactful images.
