We could not be happier with Oksana! From the moment we met with her, she had a calming presence and radiated true passion for her job. We were so excited to work with her from the moment we got on a Zoom call. I personally am not the most comfortable in front of the camera and was worried about how stiff I would look in engagement photos. Oksana made me feel SO natural and made our engagement session so fun. And the photos came out PERFECT! After our engagement session, we were soo excited to continue working with her at our wedding. Oksana is extremely organized and we met with her on specific wedding shots and timeline 5 months before the wedding.
The hour before our wedding got a little chaotic with broken zippers and clothing malfunctions, a forgotten invitation for the flat lay, and dogs. This could have spiraled extremely quickly, but Oksana stayed steady, jumped in to help us get ready while still getting photos of me in, and kept us all on the timeline. I was truly in AWE how she did all that, stayed calm, and still got amazing shots! We absolutely needed Oksana's calming presence and photography experience in that hour and I can't imagine having a different photographer. She always seemed to be in the right place at the right time at the ceremony and reception, while also staying out of the way so we barely noticed she was taking shots all night. We are so so pleased with our entire experience with Oksana and cannot recommend her enough!
Oksana is the absolute best photographer!! She not only takes the most beautiful pictures, but she makes the process so easy and fun. She created and reviewed a timeline for my wedding day with me, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. She is so kind and thoughtful, and a complete pro at what she does. Her entire team is wonderful, and they all work together to make your day amazing. I could not recommend Oksana more!!!
Oksana and her team were just incredible! Our first introduction to Oksana was over Zoom where she spent the time getting to know us and ask about our relationship but also shared about herself too. Oksana ended up shooting our engagement session in Newport, RI and Aly, Oksana's associate shooter shot our wedding in Cohasset, MA. Both Oksana and Aly are very professional and kind but also so down to earth, making us feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Oksana took the time months before our wedding to set a very detailed day of schedule, which ultimately helped organize the whole wedding day and was very responsive to any questions I had. We recently received our photos back and couldn't be happier. Her edit is natural and timeless, and we will cherish all the memories captured from our wedding day forever!
Oksana and her team are the absolute best! She was the first vendor we booked for our Cape Cod wedding and it was the best choice we could have made. For both photo and video. Oksana is wonderful, responsive, and SO easy to work with throughout the whole process - initial call, engagement photos, helping us with our timeline leading up, and then of course, on our wedding day in June. On our wedding day, Oksana and team were so professional and fun to be around, yet were a calming presence on a busy day! She kept us very much on time (and even early!) as the day went on. Our bridal party was also raving about their presence.
We got our sneak peeks and all of our photos back and were blown away - she captured amazing moments that we'll treasure forever!! Candids, family formals - all with natural light/timeless editing.
We cannot thank you enough, Oksana!!
We are so happy we booked Oksana for our wedding photography! Oksana took both our engagement and wedding day photos. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and was truly able to capture us and our relationship in photos so perfectly. We love her timeless editing style and are so happy we have keepsake albums to treasure forever.
On our wedding day, Oksana and her team were so kind, professional, and organized. They made sure we stuck to our timeline to ensure we got all the photos we wanted, but most importantly, they brought such a calming presence to our day that it felt like having friends by our side. We felt calm, relaxed, and had so much fun taking photos. That is exactly the energy you want on your wedding day and we can’t thank Oksana enough!
Oksana was an amazing photographer and we are forever grateful to have found her! Oksana works with a wonderful team. Our biggest regret was not booking Oksana and her team for our videography. Oksana took the time to get to know us and made helpful suggestions throughout the planning process whenever we asked for her input. We hired her during COVID-19 when no one really knew what the future would look like and she remained positive throughout reminding us that everything would work out. She worked in sync with our wedding planner and delivered everything within the promised timelines even as she had one of the busiest seasons on record! We did our engagement pictures with Oksana as well which was a great opportunity for us to get to know her.
Oksana speaks multiple languages, including Ukrainian and Russian, which were extremely helpful for us as many of our guests and family speak those languages. Oksana became more than just a vendor to us, she also became our friend. We will forever be grateful for her being a part of our wedding vendor team!
Don't even second guess it, book Oksana and her team for your wedding. It will make your day stress free and she will capture the most perfect little moments where you didn't even think anyone was looking. We were lucky enough to have Oksana do our engagement photos and photograph our wedding. I can hands down say I am love with our photos and so many people have told me they belong in a bridal magazine. I will cherish them forever and it makes me feel like I am reliving my wedding day. In addition to being so talented, Oksana is kind, organized, and can deal with any crazy family you have. My favorite vendor and so glad to be one of her couples.
Oksana was the best hire we made for our wedding day! She is beyond organized - helping to create the full days schedule and coordinating with all other vendors to ensure the picture scheuede stays on track. She was unbelievably professional and made sure we got all the shots that we requested upfront. She captures the best moments - we can't thank her enough!
We booked Oksana for our engagement photos in June 2020 and soon after for our wedding in June 2022. Oksana is beyond professional, timely, organized, personable and an overall top notch photographer! We worked together to create a day-of timeline and a shot list that we stuck to throughout the day and the entire process was seamless. Working with Oksana is like adding a new family member, and we are lucky to have her in our lives! Oksana got to know us throughout our engagement period which made the wedding day feel even more personal. We are lucky to look back on our wedding day with nothing but fond memories of our time with Oksana (and Maggie!) and will cherish the photos we have of our day for the rest of our lives.
Oksana was absolutely fabulous. I had been following her on instagram since I got engaged and was obsessed with her work. I felt like the luckiest bride in the world when she was available for our day. Her calm and friendly demeanor made me feel totally stress-free on my wedding day, from the moment she arrived while we were getting ready, until the moment she left the reception. She was amazing at helping me set up the timeline of the day which made everything else fall into place. Many of my guests asked for her contact info at the wedding without even seeing her photos because she was just wonderful. She was so professional but at the same time felt like an old friend. I would highly recommend Oksana!
Booking Oksana was the best wedding planning decision we made.
Our wonderful experience started from our initial conversation where she explained her ideas, her process, etc. From there, Oksana drove 45+ minutes to capture our engagement pictures at our home which were absolutely amazing and perfectly US.
After that, Oksana was in constant communication leading up to our day. She put together a timeline which detailed exactly where we needed to be and when. She was thoughtful and attentive in putting this together. Her organization not only benefited us and our wedding party, but all of our vendors to ensure the day of went smoothly.
Oksana’s ability to control and direct a 20+ person wedding party while allowing us to be our natural selves was incredible. She was able to guide/pose us so naturally. She was fun, sweet and attentive.
Our wedding photos are incredible. We’re so grateful that Oksana was a part of our day and will truly cherish our photos forever.
Oksana and her team were amazing when she did my friend's wedding, and I knew that she was who I wanted to work with on my own wedding. She is always uplifting and positive when working with us and makes us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. Our wedding was a true dream come true and Oksana was a crucial factor in that. I hope to work with her again in the future!
Oksana is the best wedding photographer!!! The morning of my wedding I was so anxious and she brought such a calm presence that I really appreciated. We recently received our wedding photos back and I’m obsessed. She and Maggie captured every important moment and we have beautiful photos to relive our wedding forever. Hiring Oksana is the best decision you can make in your wedding planning!
Oksana is amazing!! I am so happy that I found her for my wedding and engagement photos. She is so sweet and knows what she is doing. For our engagement photos, she even sent us a few sneak peeks that same night!! We were not expecting that quick of a turnaround time even for just a few photos, it was such an awesome surprise and the photos were perfect! We are SO EXCITED to see the final gallery from our wedding!! She truly goes above and beyond for you to make sure your day is everything you want it to be. When it comes to photos, she made it extremely effortless to get all the photos we wanted done, which isn't always easy to do especially with so many people and not always feeling comfortable getting your photos taken (which is my husband to a T). She makes sure that you get all the photos/poses that you want to do which is great to have a vendor who genuinely cares about what you as the bride and groom want versus what only they think is best. She has the experience behind the camera so we trusted her to tell us what to do but we were also appreciative of her taking our opinions into consideration. She even went as far to help me with my incredibly heavy cathedral length veil that kept popping out of my head every time I tried to walk. She helped my MOH pin it in to secure it as much as possible when we were about to walk off the trolley into the church. Not every vendor will go above and beyond for you, but Oksana will. Not every vendor will take your feelings and opinions into consideration, but Oksana will. Not every vendor will make it effortless and easy to work with them, but Oksana will. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer -- she is the best!!
Could not be happier that we chose Oksana to photograph our wedding and engagement photos that left us absolutely speechless!! She is so talented and truly passionate about her work. Despite a pandemic, Oksana was extremely easy to work with the whole step of the way and was so fun to work with on wedding day!! Would 100% hire her again for family photos.
Even before we got engaged, we knew we wanted Oksana as our photographer (which I totally hinted to her). Everything about the day was perfect, and she totally added to it. Even during the planning process, Oksana's phone calls put me at ease. We had to change plans and they were really up in the air for a while, but Oksana stayed flexible and even offered suggestions to help us through a hard time. She was really accommodating and we spoke on multiple occasions, not just about photo ideas but also about how to plan out the day. She was really easy to get in contact with and was available even with both of us having crazy schedules. She always made time to talk. The day of, she was very on top of things and made sure we got all the shots that we wanted. The pictures turned out beautifully, even though it was a new place for her (that's how you know she's great!). Overall, when you hire Oksana, you're not only getting a day-of photographer, you're getting even more support than you already have.
First of all - HIRE OKSANA!! She was absolutely incredible to work with!
Before we met Oksana we were in love with her photography style and how she was able to capture STUNNING candid pictures naturally and nothing looked staged or forced. Then we met Oksana and both Andrew and I knew she was the PERFECT photographer for us! We got to know her over coffee and quickly felt as if we had known her for years! She had us over her place before the wedding and made all of the pre-wedding work so easy and fun! We enjoyed spending time with her, she made us feel like family!
Not only were our pictures absolutely stunning, but she even gave us a few "sneak peeks" that night before she left of polaroid pictures (that she surprised us with, I didn't even realize she had a polaroid camera with her!) When I started to get overwhelmed she working with my bridal party and made everything seamless and made me calm right away!
Even my sister said she can't wait to use her when she gets married because of not only how beautiful and detail-oriented Oksana's work is, but also how wonderful she is to work with and treated my whole family like her own.
Once I met with Oksana, I cancelled the other photographers I was scheduled to meet with - SHE IS THE ONE!! I can't thank her enough for the beautiful memories she was able to capture!
There is truly no photographer better than Oksana! She does such an incredible job capturing every moment. Capitalizing on great lighting, directing family (especially kids!), all while not being pushy and putting the emphasis on the fact that it is the couples day. She is also super encouraging while you're taking photos which is very helpful especially towards the end of the day when you're getting tired. We love Oksana!
We’re so grateful to have found Oksana! She was professional, reliable and extremely easy to work with- she made us feel comfortable and relaxed while being insightful and informative, which was especially helpful as it was our first time taking professional photos. And, the pictures just speak for themselves! She was able to capture special moments between my fiancé and I with the beauty of Newport in our photos. We’ve received so many compliments on them! She surpassed all of our expectations. We love her work so much we have decided to go with her team for our big day!
I was happy with everything we got, it was a great experience,I loved that we were always positioned just because I’m not great at picture, thank you for the experience, if any other pictures are needed I know who to ask 🙂
Oksana is the best photograph!! I was very happy with her work, the pictures looked amazing! She is a sweetest, and kindest person I’ve meet. I love that she made my pictures look the best they could ever be. She knew exactly what to do to make my pictures different from other but with her style. Time management was greatly done, since my wedding was timed differently then most, she did a great job helping us to be on track for everything! I would recommend everyone to have her as their photographer!
I could not recommend Oksana enough. Before my wedding she was incredibly helpful - answering all my questions, putting together a timeline, etc. - and calmed my photo-related nerves. When it came to day-of, she ran sh**. She took control and told people where they needed to be and when, and it was SO appreciated. She was so professional and so kind and is so talented. I've only received a handful of photos thus far, but I look at them every day. They're truly incredibly, and Oksana is an amazing photographer! I can't wait to have these photos forever.
From start to finish Oksana made things so seamless and easy! She was so responsive when I initially reached out to her. She was kind and caring and took the time to talk with me and understand what I was looking to capture on such an important day. The day of our wedding she was so great! We barely needed a 'day of' coordinator, because Okana was running the show! She knew the best lighting and had ideas on where to do the first look. She even spoke with the venue to see if we could start the ceremony early because she was tracking the weather and thought it might start to rain soon! She was seriously amazing. The pictures came out so beautiful. I look through them all the time and feel like I am right back in those moments. I will cherish these photos forever!
Before meeting Oksana, I fell in love with her romantic and timeless style of photography. I was delighted to find out that there is also an amazing and kind human behind the camera! Oksana has been nothing short of amazing, and Jay and I are absolutely thrilled to have her as our wedding photographer. She is incredibly talented, and is so knowledgeable. Our engagement photos came out as the most spectacular, ethereal photos I have ever seen, and I received an outpour of compliments on Oksana’s photography upon sharing them with friends and family. Aside from being a talented photographer, she goes above and beyond to make sure every detail is covered. For example, I had decided fairly last minute that I wanted an in the ocean shot.. with my fiancé.. in late September.. hahaha. Not only was Oksana game for anything, she was calf-deep in freezing ocean water in skinny jeans capturing what was one of the most magical photos in our set. She’s extremely active on social media, and is so easy to get in touch with if you have any questions. When I say Jay and I cannot WAIT for Oksana to shoot our wedding, I mean it. She’s absolutely fabulous - grab her while you can before this girl is booked solid!
Oksana made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera (even when I fell during our engagement shoot 😅). I have also always been impressed by her punctuality and professionalism not to mention to her beautiful photos. I can't wait to work with her for our 2020 wedding!
I had a bit of a struggle choosing the right photographer for my wedding in Newport, RI at Belle Mer, on Sunday, June 23. Being as picky as I am, but not wanting to drop $10,000 on a photographer, it was hard to find someone in my price range with the skill I was looking for. Enter Oksana. While browsing instagram for local wedding photographers, I somehow stumbled upon @oksanamirophoto . What a blessing that was!!! I immediately contacted her and requested to meet. She turned out to be a lovely, joyful person who I knew I would be so happy to have photograph Alberts and my most special moments! For our engagement session, we opted for something unique and true to us by making pasta together in our house and having Oksana photograph it all! Her enthusiasm and excitement to do something different made our session so much fun and the photos came out beautifully!! Our family and friends could not stop commenting on how amazing they were.
Finally, the wedding day came (only two days ago)!! Oksana and Pasha (another fantastic photographer who she brought with her as her partner for the night; who Albert can't stop talking about how great he was with him and his groomsmen!!) were the perfect duo for us. We could not have had two better people photograph us on our big day!!! Their warm, positive energy, bright, happy personalities, their organization and willingness to get any photo we wanted, and their professionalism and perfectionism was beyond amazing. We cannot thank them enough for all of the hard work they did and we cannot wait to see all of the photos. (Oksana got several to me already for instagram posts and to hold me over while she edits and combs through everything and they are PHENOMENAL!) Thank you Oksana and thank you Pasha for everything! We had a blast with you guys and we are so, so happy!! To anyone reading this, if you believe that your photographer is an extremely important part of your big day (which they are), then I highly, highly recommend that you choose Oksana to capture all of your special moments. They will be beautifully captured forever! Thank you again, Oksana! We will be recommending you to everyone we know!
Oksana is amazing! From the moment we spoke on the phone up until our wedding, she was super sweet, professional, and listened to everything that we were looking for in a photographer. She directed us at all times to insure she executed the photos perfectly. And when she sent us our previews, OMG!!! Gorgeous photos! So many different varieties and the details, beautiful! We have received so many compliments from everyone. She definitely rocked it! We are so happy she was part of our special day! Thanks again!!
i met oksana when she came to our annual church conference as the photographer. after looking back at her work and getting to know her, i knew she was who i wanted if i were to ever get married. (i actually told her that at the following conference!) i ended up getting engaged shortly after and oksana was one of the first people i texted! she was so easy to work with throughout the process until the big day. she wanted was organized, efficient, calm and exceeded my expectations! she got the pictures back to us very quickly and even offered photo albums to purchase! if you want to feel like you’re just hanging out with friends on your wedding day but also want to get quality pictures, oksana is the girl for the job.
Oksana is an amazing individual. Never once did she lose her cool on the wedding day even as a monstrosity of a storm came through during ceremony, forcing everyone inside the reception hall. Even on the rainiest of days, Oksana was able to capture and document the bride and grooms special day, delivering amazing works of art. The one thing that I noticed about Oksana is that she cares deeply about her couples. Not a lot of photographers in this industry share this trait unfortunately. I can’t wait for her to capture my wife and I’s 10 year vow renewal!
It is a scary thing hiring your wedding photographer - spending hours upon hours researching the perfect photographer. I did not meet Oksana when I decided to hire her. I let her work speak for herself. One thing I kept hearing from others is to get a photographer who has great ideas on how to pose in pictures on the day. This was one thing I recognized in her work - her ideas were so different making the photos even better than I expected. We had so much fun working with Oksana. She truly loves what she does and is amazing at it. I would highly recommend Oksana. Thank you so much!!!
Oksana is an amazing photographer and even better friend. She shot a wedding that I was a bridesmaid in and you can really tell that she truly loves what she is doing. She is very good at capturing from the best moments of the day to those little details! The work she creates is beautiful and it only gets better every time I see new work from her. She’s super friendly, easy going and makes you feel totally comfortable being in front of the camera. She’s wonderful and I would totally recommend on hiring her! ✨
Oksana shot our wedding in early October and she was such a dream to work with. She made me and my husband feel so comfortable the entire day and made us feel excited about getting our pictures taken. She is so talented in capturing that natural moments during the day and is so thoughtful and kind in her approach to taking photos. I would highly recommend her for your wedding or any other special event. She will make you feel special and will perfectly capture the best moments of your day. We loved working with her! Thank you Oksana for helping to make our day as amazing as it was.
When me and my wife got engaged and started looking for a photographer who could do our engagement shoot and our wedding shoot, we immediately thought of Oksana, she went out of her way for us to capture our engagement and wedding so that we could have the memories for a lifetime. She is so easy to work with, an amazing photographer, and most importantly a great person and friend. Not only has she captured our wedding and engagement, we had her capture our pregnancy photos, and its awesome to have a photographer that you can share some of your happiest life moments with and have them captured forever.
Oksana is amazing to work with! She helped us feel comfortable & natural in front of the camera. Another important thing that meant so much to me was that her photos didn’t just capture moments, they told stories. I wasn’t able to have a videographer at my wedding, so it was so awesome how Oksana captured everything from little details to the most important must-have moments ( not to mention quirky things that were unique to just our wedding day.) Best. Day. Ever.
Absolutely amazing photographer! We get so many compliments on our wedding pictures! We wouldn’t have gone with anyone else, Oksana is very kind and professional and an absolute joy to work with! Her work is so natural and beautiful and doesn’t look like the typical “posed” pictures, she’s really about catching those little moments and emotions and that’s what puts her in a whole new category as opposed to just “click and shoot” photographers. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone and everyone who’s looking for amazing wedding pictures!!
Having almost no experience in being professionally photographed before made my husband and I especially nervous on our wedding day. But turns out we didn't had to be at all. She was creative with many ideas to offer with the poses (no poses were repetitive), open to new suggestions, and show dedications to her work. During group photo sessions, we were impressed by how quickly she was able to assemble everyone together. Working with her was comfortable and quick-paced, without being overwhelming. My husband and I especially appreciated her research and sightseeing the locations beforehand, and that she was very on top of communicating back and forth. She is very reliable and we hope to work together with her again someday!
Oksana was very personable and did a great job in incorporating the shots that we wanted as part of our wedding, but also blew us away with her creativity and ways that she captured our special moments. We decided to do a "second day" photo shoot after the wedding, in our wedding attire and are so glad we did!! My husband and I highly recommend her!
