Ilya was great to work with and great to have at my nieces birthday party. Throughout the booking process, he was very responsive and flexible as I finalized the details. He was able to provide a variety of options that worked best for our event.
Day of, he took an amazing number of pictures to capture the event. He was flexible, open to direction, and also open to extending his time (for a cost :-) ). Overall, I really enjoyed working with him and would book him again.
If you’re looking for a photog for a kids party, Ilya is your guy!
THANKS ILYA!

Ilya was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend! He arrived on time and took us to many different locations for our photoshoot. Our pictures look clear and professionally-taken. He helped us pose and allowed us to take breaks when needed. Thank you Ilya!

He was available on short notice to photograph a birthday event. He did a great job capturing shots. He was on time and stayed as long as we needed him to. He gave us the photos immediately after the party on a usb drive. This worked for us as we didn’t really care to have edited photos for this event. We just wanted to capture the day. Will def use him in the future.

I really enjoyed Ilya’s service and photographs! He took amazing shots of me for my graduation photos, and even included a few family members. To say they were good is an understatement, he got beautiful sunset shots in and positioned me to get the best shots and views. I 100% recommend his service! He also gave me the photos right after we’re done!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The price is calculated based on hourly rate. 2 Hours minimum charge. Price range $69-119/hr. Plus gas expenses. Tips are also welcome.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We talk to the customer and ask what are his preference. Then we prepare a plan of the shooting and what gear we need. All the process of preparing the plan is happening during phone conversation.
What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
The main question is : Do you like the style of our photographer ? If yes - then we can make the best shoot ever for your event. Because it's all about the style of photographer. If you like his vision, then you will like the pictures, that he will make for you. Keep in mind, that further photoshop is not related to the photographer's style, because it's simply being made by another specialist (graphic designer & retoucher).
