[New] Mira Spott

received multiple diplomas from concerts. A few of my paintings were exhibited in Ukraine. I also finished musical school with a gold medal and professional dancing school with honors,” she noted.

But each of these enjoyable pursuits in the arts were not necessarily the key to produc ing a good living in terms of wages. So she categorized the arts into the “hobby” aspect of her life and earned two master’s degrees from Lviv Politechnical University (Ukraine) in International Economics and Environmental Engineering.

For eight years she managed a bank in Ukraine. Then for four years she managed a part of her family’s auto business, particu larly, the inspection station and foreign car certification. In 2015 she was sent by the family’s car company to New York City for the Tesla conference, where she met her future husband and soulmate, Matt Spott. The meeting turned out to be love at first sight and the couple discovered they could not live without each other. The couple married and Mira was able to be a stay-at-home mom taking care of their family. But, Mira was used to being very busy. With Matt’s encour agement, she purchased a camera and began studying photogra phy at New York School of Photography. “We live in the most beautiful state in the most beautiful country! I wanted to memorize every single big moment of my children’s lives. I love to create beauty out of whatever is surrounding me. I am so fortunate to be doing what I love.”

Mira is both an outdoor and indoor photographer with her own cozy and comfort able studio, always ready for family or children’s photo sessions. “I love people and really enjoy bringing smiles and beau ty to everyone’s lives. I believe that each single person is unique and gorgeous in his or her own way. I excel at emphasizing each person’s beauty in a special way. I love to create beautiful stories with the pictures I take. I specialize in senior photo shoots, business content, engage ment, love and wedding stories and of course, kids! Mira’s name, “peace and glory” seems so appropriate for her life.

Mira’s Ukrainian Background

“I am from Ukraine, Lviv City. My country is the largest country in Europe. Ukraine has such a rich historical and cultural heritage. Ukrainians are very talented, creative and hard workers. We have been independent for more then 30 years, but truly independent and free is what we hope for today.

Right now it is a disaster as to what is going on in Ukraine, Russians using genocide against the Ukrainians using weapons.

Russians always hated us, for being a free spirit nation, independent and having much self determination. They never considered Ukrainians as a separate nation. They killed thousands of intelligent, talented and famous Ukrainians throughout the years. But history repeats itself, since in 1932-33, millions of Ukrainians were killed in the Holocaust, a man-made famine engineered by the Soviet government of Joseph Stalin. But that war is not only about Ukraine, it is about taking all countries and people under Russian control. It is about managing the world in Russian way, which is full of corruption, lies and murders.

Ukrainians from all over the world and inside Ukraine united for victory over Russia. And we will win, especially with great help and support from the United States government and American people. Ukrainians are very grateful for that!” H
