I took a shot on Shant after finding his profile through The Knot. Did a little digging through Instagram and loved the aesthetic of his photography: intimate, authentic, artistic, and playful, too. I’m typically a referral only type of person when planning events, and this being my wedding, the pressure felt even more intense! Thankfully, I found Shant to be everything I wanted and needed: responsive, generous, relaxed, and very talented. My pictures were stunning, the posed and candid. The only thing I would do differently is clone him and have his clone take more pictures.
Shant was amazing from beginning till end! He photographed the moment I proposed to my fiance on a rainy day in Malibu. He was very responsive and responsible. He spent a lot of time with me planning the moment so that we could pull off the surprise. He even stood under the insane rain with just a jacket and his camera to make sure we captured the moment perfectly. I was convinced he would do an amazing job from the pictures I'd seen on his social media and he did not disappoint. He has an amazing style! Very cinematic, the pictures feel like they are stills taken out of a movie scene. Would 100% reccomend if you're looking for something unique and non cliche. Thank you Shant!
So glad we hired Shant to photograph our engagement party! He went above and beyond and delivered the most beautiful pictures. Very professional and attentive and we loved his style of photography, it was unique and special. We will cherish these photos forever. I highly recommend choosing him to photograph your special day, you will not be disappointed!
We heard about Shant through a friend who had worked with him for their proposal photography, and we loved the images from their beach proposal. My husband and I wanted to keep our wedding reception intimate and among close family and friends. Shant truly captured the romance and intimacy in our wedding photos, which took place in an outdoor setting. Some of the photos he took were of us at church, and these indoor shots were just as beautiful and sentimental. We love his imaging style, his professionalism, his genuine feedback, and we most importantly value the quality of the content which he brings to life in his photos. For us, it’s all about living the moment wholeheartedly and naturally, and we’re very grateful and happy that Shant was able to capture these important moments for us so beautifully and authentically!
