“This is and will become such a meaningful memory of my career and the place I am in life. Your sensitivity of what you shose to put in and my dancing shots were so meaningful. I could feel the care and appreciation coming from you as you edited. Thank you so much to have given me the opportunity to tell my story and to have made it so beautiful,” said Vinicius Lima, artist of Ballet West.

Alisa Vvedenskaia
Alisa was born and raised in the coastal city of Vladivostok, Russia. Her parents instilled a boundless love of photography and travel in her from a young age. Her father loved to explore new parts of the world and would travel plan for the family while her mother captured memories through photos of their adventures. It inspired Alisa to pursue her degree in Film and Media Arts at the University of Utah while living and studying in both South Korea and United States of America. Her camera is a magic tool that helps capture bright moments through photography and videography and helps her save important moments with people she meets. Alisa’s love for exploring new areas and hobbies lead her to intern with Ballet West in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Later, Alisa made her childhood dream come true by being a photographer at Camps Kenwood & Evergreen. She watched many movies about American summer camps and wanted to go to one of them herself as a child.
Alisa continues to improve her photography skills. She recently finished a photo documentary course in Docdocdoc, Saint Petersburg, Russia. Studying documentary photography expended Alisa’s perspective. She started to capture people in real-life settings that perfectly display their job or hobby.
