I had the pleasure of working with Dasha all three times that I got married last year. Yes, three weddings, and all of them were to the same guy. My husband and I were born in Asia...
, grew up in LA, and now live on the East coast. With our family members and friends scattered across the globe, we decided to throw three weddings – one for our family members, one for our friends, and one for ourselves.
Here entered Dasha. Dasha’s bright smile, contagious laughter, and witty remarks kept me calm and sane throughout the wedding trilogy. She took the time to get to know us as a couple. Her photos are not only gorgeous, but they are personal and reflect who we are. She captured moments at the weddings that we may have missed and moments that we want to treasure forever. Dasha was especially talented in encapsulating motion and movement in a photograph. Her photos bring the scenes back to life.
Dasha also designed the most breathtaking invitations and stationeries for us. She even hand-tied chiffon ribbons to each of our stationery bundles to create that airy and whimsical feeling. Ever the perfectionist, Dasha personally went to the print shop multiple times to confirm that the card stock would match the overall theme. Dasha’s professionalism, artistic eye, and meticulous organizational expertise outshined the wedding planner I had hired. Throughout the seven months, Dasha transformed from a wedding photographer/designer to a trusted confidant.
It is only fitting for me to pen this review on the anniversary of meeting Dasha. I find myself dreaming up ways so that I could work with Dasha again. Did I mention that I have a sister who might be getting married soon? The saga continues…?
From my first email with Dasha I knew she was the right photographer for us. Sweet and full of sunshine I felt an immediate connect with her. Her energy during our engagement sessi...
on was infectious. She is joyful and puts you at ease. Dasha shot our engagement and wedding photos and both times she exceeded our expectations. Dasha has the talent to make photo after photo absolutely magical. She has an amazing eye and knows the art of photography very well. She shoots stunning images. Her editing style is soft and dreamy. Her portfolio is beautiful and our photos lived up to it.
More than the beautiful photos and lasting memories delivered with them, Dasha will win you over with her genuine love and friendship she extends to all of her couples and families!
I cannot recommend her enough! We love Dasha!
Dasha was AMAZING! You can tell that she was a true professional and reliable due to her detailed, organized, and beautiful documents to help prepare for your engagement shoot and ...
wedding. So many materials created to help make the process easier like must-have shots/poses, family portrait lists, and detailed timeline of when to capture what shots. Not to mention, she is so easy to work with – especially for people who’ve never had formal professional shoots. She guided us throughout by showing us how to stand, what to do with our hands, and telling us jokes to get our natural smiles/laughs. She’s also very personable and easy to get along. I swear, we spent an extra hour after our photoshoot just chitchatting and having a picnic. Now, the crazy thing is I wasn’t expecting her to remember everything we had shared during our chit chats but she REMEMBERS everything and writes such beautiful personal messages on her blog about her couples. She truly makes the effort and takes the time to get to know you as a couple to capture your essence in her photos. Of course, her photos are so beautifully captured and edited as well but that speaks for itself from her gallery. She is a gem and we’re so thrilled to have had her to capture our special day!
Dasha is INCREDIBLE!! No need to look for anyone else, you found THE BEST PHOTOGRAPHER FOR YOUR WEDDING! I'm usually not very expressive but she went above and beyond anything I co...
uld ever expect! From the very beginning Dasha was very kind and personable, very professional and attentive to details, and overall just so fun to work with!! She makes you feel like you and your wedding are the most important to her even though I bet she has quite a few projects going on. During the wedding Dasha was like my best friend, always making sure my husband and I are taken care of. And after the wedding the pictures that we received were so stunning! She captured our day beautifully. Moreover I hope she would capture my future newborn photos when it's time.
We couldn't be happier with everything she did for us and would recommend Dasha to anyone who is looking for a fantastic photographer for their engagement and wedding!
How do I even start? Dasha has been beyond amazing! She exceeded all my expectations on what a wedding photographer could do for you. Our wedding experience (I can't call it anythi...
ng less) is by far one of the best ever! I can see how Dasha cares about everyone who gets to work with her, it really shows. She was kind, helpful and knowledgeable, and very attentive throughout the whole time. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable with her. And not only us! Lots of our family and friends kept saying how amazing that our photographer BEHIND the camera was so smiley and cheerful. The photos turned out fantastic, we look like some movie stars :) Thank you for being who you are, Dasha! We love you!!
Dasha was more than I could have imagined for our wedding photographer. She gave us a free engagement session so she could get to know us. We had stunning pictures done on the beac...
h at sunset. She was incredibly thoughtful and organized. She created our wedding timeline and helped us with so many details that we needed assistance in. Our wedding photos are beautiful and she got them back to us fast. She was always checking in on me and surprising me with gifts and extras. I HIGHLY recommend Dasha!
From start to finish Dasha was amazing! She was attentive, kind, and professional. During our first meeting, she took her time to get to know us and what we were looking for. We co...
uld definitely see that she truly cared and wanted to help. Dasha helped us visualize our day and come up with a timeline to get exactly the photos I wanted. We knew she was the best for us! All the time before the wedding, she was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns that I had.
The day of the wedding she was absolutely a godsend. She arrived early, was cheerful and supportive. Dasha definitely knows what she does! She sincerely does wish for your wedding to be perfect. I could feel she would do anything she could to make it so!
I just received my gallery and I am amazed at how beautiful the pictures turned out! We already got many compliments on our wedding photos!
I couldn't be more pleased with Dasha as a person and professional and her work. If you are looking for a great photographer, you've found her!
