SGI Photography

Slava was awesome to work with! Captured our engagment photos and wedding beautifully. I'm glad I'll get to look back on these memories for decades to come.

Slava is absolutely one of the BEST wedding photographers in the business. After meeting with him and seeing samples of his work, we knew without hesitation, that this was our guy. Slava has an incredibly artistic eye towards romance and brings and ethereal dream-like quality to his photos, without compromising spontaneity and a "candid-feel" to his photos. Simply said, he captures every aspect of your love, on film. Slava's helpful tips for all aspects of our wedding planning literally saved us thousands. He's been in the wedding business for 20+ years, and has some incredibly helpful advice, well beyond photography. One of the most wonderful recommendations he made, was doing a pre-wedding shoot (HIGHLY recommend) at Las Velas. If you don't know of this place, you MUST check it out. It is gorgeous and very inexpensive to use as a stunning backdrop for a romantic bridal shoot (see photos below). Slava was exceptionally skillful at posing us just perfectly (literally, he would pose our bodies to the millimeter to get the most perfect photo). His technical skills are outstanding, but honestly, he's an artist! Slava was quick to communicate through every step of the process (he responded typically in a matter of minutes). He masterfully guided us through both the pre-wedding shoot and the wedding/reception photos. The finished product? Beyond our WILDEST EXPECTATIONS. No lie. We never imagined we could look so great, and that our love for one another could be captured on film. Slava did it. Our final photo album is absolutely gorgeous and we will display it proudly on our coffee table to share with friends and family. Be sure to purchase the copyrights to the photos and get all of the jpeg images, as those are wonderful for social media and sending to friends and family. We would give Slava a TEN STAR rating if there were such a thing. We interviewed several photographers with vastly inferior work for twice the price. BOOK HIM!!!

If I could give more than 5 stars for SGI Photography, I would. He did our engagement photos, my bridals, and the wedding photos and everything turned out better than expected. He was always on time and extremely responsive. He can make any photo unique and creative. He was also beyond understanding and went above and beyond to help my family and my husband's family when two of our close family members were going through medical issues. This man cares about his job, his clients, and does everything possible to provide couples with truly remarkable pictures. I would absolutely, 100% recommend Slava to anyone!

Slava was super professional and got our photos to us right away. We love them!
