Super photo shoot. would highly recommend.

I don’t usually write reviews, but I want to thank Wen for such an amazing job! Being our first time in front of a photographer, I was afraid and nervous. To my surprise, my girlfriend and I had a very pleasant time and I could see how she got more confident posing in front of the camera thanks to Wen’s guide. Overall, Wen made my girlfriend’s 30th birthday photoshoot a memorable experience thanks to her professionalism, friendliness and lighthearted aura. We had a blast and I would recommend anyone to give it a try, as Wen showed us; a photograph is so powerful that it not only captures emotions and moments, but also transcends the boundaries of time. Thanks Wen, you’re the best!

Natalia was so dedicated! We did an outdoor fairground shoot with my friends and it was raining and cold and she stuck it out until the end, the whole time being friendly and sweet to me and the other girls. Lovely to work with!

I recently wrapped up a headshot session with Sergei, and I couldn't be more impressed. He was punctual, professional, and brought a fresh, creative perspective to the shoot—truly a joy to work with. As an art director with over 30 years of experience, I'm often a tough critic, but Sergei exceeded my expectations. His expertise and attention to detail were exceptional. I highly recommend Sergei for any photography needs and look forward to collaborating with him again soon.

Yakov was a fantastic photographer today around SoHo and the waterfront. Friendly, professional, and he even carried my bag for me. Can’t wait to see the photos!

Sergei was so swift to respond to my messages, showed up early to set up and finished 8 of our teams headshots in less than an hour! Everyone is so excited about their new headshots, and we can't wait to feature them on our website. Sergei was kind, quick, swift, patient in working with our team and made sure everyone had 3-5 shots they were really excited about. He was a pleasure to work with and I hope we'll have the opportunity to work together again. Highly recommend!

My go to NYC photographer! I've told ALL my friends they need to book Yakov. The best photographer I've ever booked. Plus I love that he gives advice on how to pose, and he really knows the great locations to take photos. So he provides wayyyy more value vs. simply taking the photos.
