Khatuna Dvali – Professional Photographer
Founder of Dvali Photography | Certified Professional Photographer (PPA)
Khatuna Dvali is a Georgian-born photographer based in the Greenville area of South Carolina. Her creative journey began with a background in mathematics, a discipline that continues to inform her work by adding structure and precision to her artistic vision.
Her professional career in photography began after completing advanced training with renowned institutions such as Jerry Ghionis Photography Training and the New York Institute of Photography, which led her to become a Certified Professional Photographer through the Professional Photographers of America (PPA). She is a proud member of the PPA, where she continues her education and exploration of photography as both a craft and an art form.
Khatuna founded Dvali Photography, specializing in professional portrait, branding, and creative sessions throughout the Greenville area and Upstate South Carolina. Her work is distinguished by her use of natural framing, incorporating elements like trees, leaves, and reflections to transform ordinary scenes into abstract, artistic compositions.
Her artistic philosophy is based on authenticity and perception. She says, "Photography is the mirror of my soul, a way through which I can reflect the world with all my sincerity and originality."
