Gleb made our choatic family photos super easy! He met us at a location that worked for us and got right to work. He helped me bring some of our exact visions to life and worked well with us, our baby and our two crazy dogs. Thanks again!

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Gleb for couple portraits through Thumbtack, and I couldn't be more impressed. Gleb's timeliness, collaborative approach, and valuable advice throughout the session truly set him apart.
He helped us brainstorm by creating a mood board and getting ideas down before the session. Scheduling the session was super simple. During the session, he respected our time and ensured a seamless experience with absolutely no feeling of rushing the shoot. On top of that, his collaborative nature made the shoot enjoyable and comfortable. Gleb actively engaged with us, incorporating our ideas while providing his expertise, creating an awesome environment during our session.
What sets Gleb apart is not only his technical skill with the camera and editing but also his advice and recommendations. He offered suggestions that elevated the quality of our photos, capturing moments we hadn't even considered. The results were breathtaking, totally surpassing our expectations.
The images he produced speak volumes, and I look forward to relying on Gleb for all my future photography needs. Highly recommended!!!
FYI: I only attached two images but he took over 400 and edited 30 upon our selection. Viewing the images & downloading them were super simple on Gleb’s site!
Details: Couples portrait • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Outdoors • Digital or online download • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

I hired Gleb to take a photo of my family. From booking to the final shots, his professionalism shone through. Despite rescheduling multiple times due to weather and kids’ health, he was accommodating and understanding. During the photoshoot, he efficiently took shots when needed without wasting any time, and did a great job capturing our family moments. Thank you for your excellent work!

Truly 11/10 experience. For context, Gleb was the photographer for my engagement. Gleb was extremely responsive throughout the process (before, during, and after). He was also very collaborative in the planning process and provided guidance where I had gaps in my thinking. Most important of all, our photos turned out stunning. Everyone I showed them to was blown away. Can’t recommend enough.
Details: Proposal photoshoot • Candid • Outdoors • One location • Online or digital proofs and prints • My home, venue, etc.
