Outstanding experience with Boris
Our experience with Boris as our wedding photographer was outstanding. From the onset, his professionalism, organization, and easy communication made planning our event a breeze.
Boris excels in capturing the essence of a moment. He quickly grasped our style and creatively utilized the venue space to capture beautiful, authentic photos.
We wholeheartedly recommend Boris for a personalized and memorable photography experience. His exceptional skill set blends technical expertise with creative intuition, resulting in photos that are not just visually stunning but deeply meaningful. -

Amazing Engagement Photos
We had a great experience with Boris for our engagement shoot! He was recommended by a friend who had used him for her engagement photos and wedding. The original date we planned had rain, and we were able to quickly find another time that worked. Boris was very responsive and easy to work with! He made us feel comfortable the whole time. The pictures turned out amazing, would recommend to anyone looking for natural, beautiful photos. -

Beyond expectations!
Boris was absolutely amazing from the beginning! We hired him to photograph our wedding at Diamond Mills in Saugerties, NY and I am so grateful we did. He was friendly, professional and experienced. He has an artistic eye which we loved. Pictures were incredible… both the portraits and candid shots he captured throughout the evening. We would definitely hire Boris again and we will be recommending him to friends, family and clients. Thank you Boris! -

Michelle Sent on 09/06/2021Boris's kick-ass photos
(from the groom:) Boris and his assistant Claude really captured our day. Between the get-ready pics, the church ceremony, the glamour shots, and the reception at TWA they caught all of our joy, laughter and emotions. We and our guests loved all the photos and it was nice being able to piece togther some of our lost moments that we didn't recall.
(from the bride:) Boris is very focused on the couple and has a great eye for the intimate moments in a busy, hectic day. He captured both tender and joyful moments. We chose Boris because of his demonstrated artistry and calm, chill demeanor. He also is not the usual "stand and pose with the table" photographer. Last, he is great with shy couples not used to being photographed, and our albums really captured how we are with each other as a couple. We highly recommend him.Boris Zaretsky Photography's reply:
Thank you for the amazing day and review! It was so great meeting you, your personality and energy certainly made these photos so awesome = ). -

Truly exceptional!
My now husband and I were looking for someone to photograph our last minute winter elopement at Mohonk mountain house and feel so incredibly fortunate to have found Boris!
He truly exceeded all expectations. He made us feel comfortable - we truly had the best time - and he has such an amazing eye. He was able to pick out such perfect spots for photos and got us some really interesting and artistic shots. We were truly blown away and so excited when we opened our gallery and saw literally hundreds of stellar photos. Everything turned out better than we could have expected.
Not only do we adore the photos, but we were so impressed with the turnaround time. We were amazed to receive a link to the gallery in just a couple of days. It was especially meaningful to get the gallery so quickly since our families weren’t able to be with us due to COVID. They can’t stop raving about the photos and telling us how special it is to have them. Multiple family members have told us that because of Boris’s amazing gallery, they feel as though they were with us on our special day.
We cannot thank or recommend Boris enough! -

At the beginning of the session we both were nervous but he made us comfortable and guided us through the photo shoot. He is very talented and gifted and we wish him all the best for his future endeavours.

Extraordinary Talent! Highly Recommended Wedding Photographer!
Our wedding was this past July 2018 in NYC and Boris was our wedding photographer.
We are over the moon! Boris is fantastic! He is patient, professional and extraordinarily talented. He had met with us before the wedding to get to know us better as a couple; what our hobbies are, what locations in NYC are important to us, and what activities we found meaningful together. We had a great time chatting away about wedding photos and what we were envisioning for our special day. He was extremely organized and able to guide us through questions we had and also ones we didn’t know to ask. Weddings can be difficult to navigate but Boris’s expertise and experience was reflected in his advice and recommendations.
Fast-forward to our wedding day and Boris arrived at our home with a smile on his face and an arsenal of photo gear that somehow fit in just one bag. He made sure that no moment was left unphotographed and he left a personal touch that was exceptional. He made every moment of our wedding day count. Every emotion that was felt that day can be seen in at least one photograph. Our photos not only tell the story of our celebration but portray love and happiness in each photo.
Boris’s knowledge of photography, skilled eye and artistic ability inspired such an eclectic mix of backdrops in Lower Manhattan including; WTC, Oculus, Brookfield Place Pier, Westfield Park, Municipal Building Arches, and with the “5 in 1” statue by the Brooklyn Bridge. Boris is truly talented and works with grace and ease. He knew which location backdrops would produce stunning photos and allowed us to be relaxed the entire shoot. We never felt as if we were posing; he would recommend acting naturally and casually and the photos reflect just that. Our faces and expressions never appear tense and some of my favorite shots are when he suggested we slow dance on a beautiful cobble stone street.
A week after the wedding, he sent a few sneak peaks which showed us that the rest of our photos would be absolutely stunning. A few weeks later, he sent a password protected link to our hundreds of photos.
The photos were everything we wanted and even some that we didn’t know we wanted. Candid shots of us getting ready, romantic shots of us together in our home, silly shots of interactions with our families, in-action shots of the champagne toasts, and excited shots of us arriving to city hall with family and friends. Boris captured photos of the ceremony, guests, locations, and mementos perfectly.
Thank you Boris from the bottom of our hearts for such a magical experience! Our wedding photos came out better than we could have ever imagined. We will truly cherish these moments that you so beautifully captured. We would wholeheartedly recommend Boris! -

User2595040 Sent on 05/02/2016Boris did my engagement shoot, and not only delivered great photos, but was very accommodating and attentive. He was open to my ideas about the theme of the shoot, and suggested a great location. He was very responsive via email, and very professional. He made my fiancé and I feel comfortable in front of the camera, and the pictures definitely reflect that! Everyone I showed my photos to was very impressed! -
User2596021 Sent on 05/03/2016I think Boris's portfolio speaks for itself. When we saw his work we knew he had to do our engagement pictures. Boris picked the locations and directed us through the shoot. The final product left us speechless- we had no idea we were THAT good looking :) Boris is incredibly talented, professional, and helpful. I would highly recommend him for any of your photographing needs!
