Dmitry was our wedding photographer and he did absolutely amazing! We just received our photos back a couple weeks ago and they are all breathtaking! The value of his service is amazing for the quality of service you receive. He was incredibly professional and very patient with my crazy family. He knew exactly how to position everyone to be sure the photos came out perfect. He was very responsive the entire time leading up to the wedding with any questions we had and was flexible with any changes. Everyone felt so comfortable around him and his assistant. Thank you Dmitry for such gorgeous photos my husband and I will cherish for life. :)

My husband hired Dmitry for his marriage proposal. He was hiding in the bushes and captured all the moments. His pictures were so breathtaking, that we hired him again for our wedding! He is very creative in his work, and makes sure you get the most beautiful pictures. We highly recommend Dmitry, and will definitely work with him again in the future!!

I truly can't express in words how blessed my husband and I are to have found Dmitry in our search to find a photographer for our wedding in Malibu in march. He provided us with an extremely professional and detailed proposal for his services and surpassed our expectations when we saw the final results. Our wedding day was a complete success thanks to his natural ability to capture every detail of our ceremony with a naturally unique style.

Dmitry was amazing! If I could add another star to his rating, I would! I had a small wedding and only asked for a photographer for one hour to capture the most important moments. Dmitry was early to the site, professional, and extremely knowledgable in regards to taking pictures and setting up poses. He was patient with all of my difficult family members and took more photos than we had even asked him to. He impressed me with his knowledge in regards to how poses would look on camera and how to change the body to better fit the photo. His photos are beautiful and i am so grateful that he was my photographer. I am still blown away by his work for my small time wedding. Thank you Dmitry!

Dmitry did an amazing job photographing my Baby Shower!

He's incredibly professional and polite. Blends in with the crowd. Everyone felt super comfortable.

After getting the pictures I was blown away. They are amazing!
All of the guests are super impressed too.

I have a feeling we'll use him for other events many times in the future.
I'm recommending him to everyone I know!

Dmitry was very kind and accommodating. He cared about my interests and made me feel comfortable. He was also able to hook me up with a wonderful make up artist. I would recommend Dmitry to others and use his services again.

Question and answer

Q. Describe the most common types of jobs you do for your clients.

A. I offer wedding, portrait and event photography in California, Nevada and Arizona.
Please take a look at my website www.DmitryRogozhin.com to check out my style, what I'm doing and who I am.

Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A. Make sure you deal with professionals, who are passionate about their services and products. The ones who truly believe in the importance of their craft.
Sharing the same values is the key for great professional relationships and fantastic result.

Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?

A. Every photographer is unique (if not yet, he/she should be unique).
I have been photographing since 6 years old and have international experience working with TV companies, magazines, newspapers, corporate clients and much more along with my versatile personal freelance career.
And I'm also wonderful:)

Q. What do you like most about your job?

A. It's not a job for me. This might sound cliche, but it's my lifestyle.
Nowadays when photography became an everyday thing for so many people, who can easily create pictures with their phones or other gadgets, a lot of people don't value professionals like they did before.
BUT!!!
Only until people realize that professional photographer is not the fancy equipment, that anybody can buy.
There is much more behind it: experience and knowledge of making people look beautiful in the photographs and feel happy during the shoot along with knowing the most complimentary ways to show the natural beauty of every single person in the photograph.
Not even speaking of long-lasting memories...

Q. If you were advising someone who wanted to get into your profession, what would you suggest?

A. Find the person who inspires you, take him/her out for lunch and offer your help in exchange for priceless knowledge and experience you can get working with that professional. That would be like a little seed growing in the little pot with lots of sun, care and protection. And when the time comes, you'll be prepared for the "real life" much better, than if you'd start off on your own.
