1725 Ukrainian War Photog couple discuss how the war affects their relationship. They are married.
“When the war broke out, Konstantin and Vlada were both 29 years old. They had been together for eight years, and married for five. The Odessa couple originally planned to flee for safety when the full-scale invasion began. But with bags packed and ready to depart, they could not bring themselves to leave.”
When would a fake shrink get to talk with a married couple with a career
photographing from the harshest edges of the war in to talk about their
relationship? What a privilege!!! Btw, they learned to do war photography when Ukraine was invaded. Literally trial by fire. When they were first together and married, they had an extremely successful, creative, wedding photography business.
Konstantin and Vlada are in NYC on the last leg of their tour throughout the U.S. to accept an award from the US Embassy in Kiev. (I may have some award details wrong here, but you get the point.)
As they agreed to be on the show, I told them I wanted to focus on discussing their relationship in such an intense situation, especially since they had begun their practice as wedding photographers. I mean talk about a growth experience! Beyond my imagination.
I found them fascinating. And do you know what I found out? When they were first married Va was a chic princess. Always perfectly clean and perfectly coiffed. But then, trenches….
