Hi, thank you for stopping by and congratulations on your engagement! I’m Irina, a Russian, a Navy spouse, a traveler and a Disney fan. I love capturing precious memories and showing the beautiful story of your special day! I want you to have fun in the process and enjoy it as much as the result. My forte is helping you look natural, not posed. I create authentic photographs in which you look your best. It is also very important for me to understand your vision so that I can make sure to meet and exceed your expectations. That’s why every photography experience with me begins with a planning questionnaire. Don’t just take my word for it! Here’s a few things my clients have said after working with me: Working with Irina was such a pleasure! Not only did she take amazing photographs but she was incredibly professional, kind, and patient with us, guiding us to ensure that she got the best shots for our special day. We chose Irina for her beautiful portfolio and cost but we were pleasantly surprised at how she was able to capture those sweet candid moments between my wife and I, making the whole process natural, fun, and memorable. Irina gave expert directions and it showed in the final photographs that we received. We highly recommend Irina to anyone looking for someone to capture their wedding celebration - you won’t be disappointed! (Nick and Nina, Wedding in Falls Church, VA) My husband and I enjoyed working with Irina. She was extremely sweet, calm, flexible, and her prices were very reasonable! She was great at communicating with me to make sure she would be able to capture every single special moment of my wedding day. She also got the pictures back to us in less than a month!! Go Irina!! (Hilari and Bobby, Wedding in Gaithersburg, MD) We were able to work with Irina for our engagement shoot so we were pretty confident in her being our wedding photographer. She made us very comfortable! We communicated mostly via email and text, which was prefect for me as I planned my own wedding so the calls could get overwhelming at times. She was very specific in what she needed from us in order to capture our day in a way that we'd appreciate. This included questionnaires, timelines etc. Her questionnaire contained a few questions that had not yet even been considered. Very helpful. Irina and my videographer worked so well together. It was amazing, professional and all that I could ask for. I certainly would recommend Irina to my friends; I enjoyed the experience from start to finish! We look forward to working with her for future shoots! (Jasmine and Darius, Wedding in Bushwood, MD) I'm looking forward to hearing more about your wedding. Contact me today for details!
