My small court wedding was captured in a simple and clear way. He was on time and extremely polite. I would highly recommend Nova Photo Works. Burhan was patient and flexible. He captured every moment in the best way.

Burhan shot our wedding ceremony and reception and we were incredibly happy with his work. He worked with us on short notice, was punctual, professional, and very quick getting us proofs and edited photos.
Burhan was able to capture many different angles and a ton of pictures without the assistance from a second shooter; it was very impressive. It was an all around great experience and I would highly recommend him for your next event.
Details: Wedding • Fewer than 25 guests • Indoors • Digital or online download

Burhan

Burhan did an amazing job with taking photos for our daughter's birthday. He was super communicative and responsive, he arrived early and go straight to work even though he could not find me. He took a lot of pictures and even stayed for some time over the 2 hrs we paid for. He was very professional and the pictures were amazing!
