    Vitaly was the photographer of our dreams. Here's the thing with hiring a photographer for your engagement/wedding photos... you worry it may be awkward. You know, a person third wheeling all the most intimate moments of your relationship. You worry they won't understand you or capture your relationship at its core. Well, we were blown away by the way Vitaly's photos told our story, and captured the feelings and emotions one could only hope a photographer would. Run the other way from those terrible wedding photography companies and into the lens of Vitaly M. Your wedding will be captured as a fairy tale for the ages. Plus he's awesome, funny and a joy to share your day with. He's incredibly talented and will be one of the best wedding decisions you can make!

    Vitaly captured everything we could’ve hoped for to immortalize our wedding day. Working with Vitaly is like being around a good friend but the end results is getting photos that look like they were for an editorial shoot. We feel very lucky to have him as our photographer. We look forward to working with him in the future to capture photos of our growing family. Here’s a list of the things that really stood out...

    Professionalism:
    - Vitaly is incredibly professional, polite, light-hearted, and fun to work with.
    - Vitaly is like a ninja. Many of our photos,we didn’t realize that he was every where around us to capture so many perspectives of a moment. He did not distract anyone one or important moments but got the photo.
    - Vitaly is prepared and on time with your schedule.
    - Vitaly is very communicative with you to make sure he understands what you want and he really vibes off of who are you as a couple.
    - Vitaly showed up looking very presentable and stylish. It really shows that his work is an extension of him and we knew we were going to get something really cool.
    - Vitaly gives full attention to your wedding day.

    The ARTWORK:
    - Vitaly captures a lot of natural expressions and beautiful portraits of people.
    - Vitaly captures pictures of just about everyone that’s there in their natural moment. Very endearing.
    - Vitaly doesn’t make you do a hundred posed photos.
    - Vitaly is the master at capturing light and clarity in a photo that looks so incredibly vibrant.
    - Vitaly’s black and white photos are timeless and classic looking.
    - Vitaly’s photos are of magazine quality and aesthetics.

    We highly recommend him!

    My husband and I met Vitaly at a coffee shop and after two minutes I knew we had to work with him. He is so easy to be around and just loves what he does. He has a passion for life and capturing the moments in which we live our lives. Vitaly is a dream to work with, he responds so quickly to everything and really cares about his work. We did an engagement session at the Griffith Observatory and had the best time ever. My husband is not the most photogenic and was worried about "what he should be doing" Vitaly made him so comfortable that he forgot we were taking pictures and really "went with the flow".
    We got married in Downtown LA and had the most amazing time shooting around the city. Vitaly is no fuss, he knows what he's doing, he gets along with everyone and works as a team.

    I keep getting so many compliments on how amazing the photography was and that it was not the typical wedding photography you normally see. This is all music to my ears as that was the whole reason we wanted to work with Vitaly. His style is true and professional. He understands lighting and capturing moments...moments in-between moments that most people miss.

    Your pictures are forever and Vitaly is the absolute best!

    Our wedding was just last month and I can't wait to share how amazing our photographer was.
    For everybody it isn't a secret that the most important part of any wedding are engagement and wedding photos. My husband and I couldn't be any happier with our love story that Vitaly has created for us through all the pictures. He photographed our engagement and after we saw the pictures, there wasn't any doubt about the head photographer at our wedding. His pictures are just unique and there is something really special about them. Once we saw Vitaly’s work on his blog, we knew right away that he will be a part of our love story.
    Vitaly is extremely professional, responsible and on top of everything. Working with him was fun and stress-free. He planned everything ahead of time and came on time well-prepared and fully-equipped :) He always made sure we felt comfortable working with him and in front of the camera. My husband was a little bit nervous and camera-shy, but Vitaly made him feel relaxed and at ease with jokes and laughs. Both our engagement and wedding photo-shoots were quite adventurous since we were taking photos so close to the water and on the rocks. Vitaly’s expensive shoes getting wet, dodging waves and climbing over rocks all made for amazing photos. He stayed so positive and professional and caught some unbelievably magical shots of us. Our pictures are breathtaking and I can’t stop staring at them every evening. Let’s just say Vitaly will go above and beyond to make his clients very happy!

    I am honestly SO happy with all the pictures and overall experience with Vitaly M Photography.
    Not only is Vitaly an extremely talented photographer, but he is also a genuinely nice guy who helps to make your engagement/wedding day very special. We highly recommend Vitaly M Photography to everybody who wants to capture special moments in their lives. You will never regret if you choose him, he truly is unique and ONE of a kind photographer.

    Vitaly was such a great photographer to work with. He knew all the shots to get and promptly delivered beautiful, professionally edited pictures. Even when some other things on our wedding day didn't go as planned, Vitaly remained professional, calm and collected and really helped to capture our special day.

    Vitaly was such an amazing photographer, he made us feel so comfortable and natural, I am so thankful for my beautiful pictures! He was always on top of everything on the day of the wedding and was able to get all the photos we wanted. He caught moments I didnt even know had happened. My photos are we're done so well, and beautifully, they were beyond any of my expectations and dreams, very authentic, thank you Vitaly!

    Vitaly is everything you need in a wedding photographer. He worked in a very professional manner and he never added to the stress that always tends to surround wedding days. He listens to what you want and takes beautiful pictures. As soon as the wedding was over, I already wanted to see pictures. When we came back from our honeymoon, he delivered! They were gorgeous. We highly recommend him. Thank you Vitaly! (Plus he's bilingual ;) )

    Our first experience with Vitaly was our engagement photo shoot. This was two years ago. He made us feel very comfortable and at ease. He was very professional, punctual and creative. He planned ahead of time, took us to several beautiful locations and told us exactly what to do. We received our photographs by the promised date, and they were stunning! We knew right away we wanted Vitaly to be the head photographer on our wedding day.

    On the big day, Vitaly was there on time and ready to go with his team! He shot us from early morning capturing the moments as we were getting ready through the ceremony, the whole reception, all wedding details and into the night until we said our goodbyes to all our guests! While on our honeymoon I was extremely eager to see what photos he had taken of us...he sent a couple to me and I was blown away. I cried! Vitaly is talented, he has an eye to capture raw beauty.

    With his efforts we are able to relive our life's special moments time and time again. Now it's two years later and we are expecting our first baby. I just scheduled my maternity shoot with him and could not be more excited! Without a doubt he will be shooting our little baby boy as soon as he arrives! I recommend Vitaly M Photography to all of my family and friends!
