Sasha was INCREDIBLE to work with!! Our photos turned out so perfect and she even got all the special shots I requested. She is VERY involved in the whole process. She gave us her direct number and answered a ton of questions we had along the way. She has the best energy and totally makes you feel natural in front of the camera. We highly recommend the Somewhere Studios team!

Sasha + somewhere studios was absolutely AMAZING. Sasha literally made our wedding day dreams happen. Our wedding photos came out even better than I ever imagined. The lighting and style was insanely beautiful. She gave us way more photos than we had expected. We got an entire online complimentary album with our wedding photos that we have forever access to. She is extremely communicative and organized. I never realize how hard a wedding photographers job is until my wedding day. She organized all of our family members for our family photos during our wedding day like it was nothing. Anytime I reached out to her, she responded within literally minutes. She was early on our wedding day and stayed late. She truly went above and beyond and we got SO lucky choosing her. I could not recommend her enough.

Sasha did a great job with our photos! She was very involved with our entire wedding party and guests throughout the night. She showed up early and stayed late to capture every moment. She made us and the entire wedding party feel very comfortable. She and her team went above and beyond to make sure the night was great! Her second photographer was also great and took the time to make sure that we were enjoying ourselves while she took our photos

Having Sasha be our photographer was the best decision we made for our wedding. She was so so amazing. During the engagement shoot, she taught my husband and I how to loosen up and pose for fun, natural, beautiful pictures so we were comfortable being in front of the camera. And for our wedding, I can’t describe how differently things could have turned out if she wasn’t there to help guide the day. She was able to take gorgeous family photos with so many little kids involved, and also take us to secluded spots and capture pictures I would have never thought of in a million years. She leads with her artistry and her love of weddings, love, family, and details always shine through in the pictures. We joked shes so good at her job, we felt like we left with a friend! She’s incredibly organized, shares her wedding knowledge in such a helpful way, and is so genuinely kind and so very talented. We love her and we miss her!

I booked Sasha for my vow renewal this past April, and I was soo pleased with the photos. I was so nervous about booking a photographer for my vow renewal since my initial wedding photographer was horrible and ruined 90% of my photos. I had high expectations for my vow renewal photos and I was not let down by Sasha. She was amazing and my photos beat my expectations. I loved my photos and she got amazing angles of my husband and I. I could not have chosen a better photographer and I'm so glad I was able to get beautiful photos of my family along with bride a groom pictures. Thank you!

Sasha was truly amazing to work with! We drove down to Paso Robles to get our engagement photos done and It started to rain pretty hard. Sasha was super sweet and squeezed us in the very next day! She was very easy to work with helped me look for local vendors since I was from out of town and went above and beyond to get me special wedding photos not to mention she was like 8 months pregnant getting everything done. I would definitely work with her again! If you can book her!!

Sasha was new and very fairly priced! I viewed her website which had very good photos. She was very responsive, open and transparent. It felt like she wasn't trying to take advantage of me like other photographers/videographers can feel like. She was very responsive and had meetings when I requested them and was very organized.
I wish she would have gotten more aggressive in getting in the aisle or moving around to get the perfect photo/angle. A lot of the angles of where the photos were taken did not make sense. A couple of my photos had my husband’s head cut off or my hand was cut out of the image. I was a little disappointed about the ceremony photos as it seemed like everything was taken from the same angle and nothing was straight on. Although, she did send me 1300 photos of the entire day.
It took 3 months to get my wedding photos back to me. I think this may had to do with COVID flux. She was very open to staying as long as I needed on the wedding day where other photographer cap you at 6-8 hours. I really appreciated that!

Kasey,
We are so sorry to hear that you had anything less than a perfect experience with...
us. We take our clients opinions very seriously and do our best to accommodate all of their needs to ensure they get exactly what they are expecting.
Your wedding was one of our absolute favorites from the season and has been featured multiple times on our website. We do have an artistic/romantic style which does involve some more constrained cropping techniques. We do our best to showcase similarly styled work in our portfolio and in advertising so that brides know exactly what they can expect with their final images. We apologize if any of our showcased work was interpreted as anything different.
With regard to your ceremony shots, we take full responsibility for not discussing your shot list with you more thoroughly. From our video consultation, we had noted that the straight on angle of you coming down the aisle with your father, as well as that of your flower girl were very important shots to you and we are so happy we were able to get those for you. The additional angles we captured from the side are meant to showcase your emotions during these special moments, which is why we angle off to the side to capture your full face rather than simply your profile.
Additionally, we would like to assure you that our lead time of three months is universal for all our clients and was not any sort of special circumstance. I apologize for not making that more clear in our video consultation. This lead time is reflective of the individual care and attention to detail that goes into editing each image. We understand that waiting for your photos is a hard thing to do which is why we send out our sneak peak album within one week so you have the best images from the day ready to share with friends and family right away.
We sincerely regret that your experience was anything less than perfect and hope that married life is treating you well!
All the best,
The Somewhere Studios Team

After my fiancé and I got engaged we decided to pursue travel nursing together and went to California for our first assignment as a newly engaged couple. We wanted an engagement photoshoot and figured California would be the perfect place for one. We were living in San Luis Obispo and came across Sasha's profile. My fiancé and I loved her portfolio and shared our story with her. We wanted to capture the calm, coastal feel during sunset and she told us when and where to meet her to ensure we could get the best shots. When she sent us our album, my fiancé and I absolutely fell in love with the photos! Our family and friends love them too and comment Sasha's work all the time. We highly recommend working with Sasha to capture the most precious moments.

Glad and grateful we found Sasha for our wedding! Another photographer we inquired was not available but he recommended Somewhere Studio. From the first email communication, Sasha was very responsive and thorough. She scheduled a call off the bat to get to know us and what we were looking for. Sasha is a very detailed photographer and captured us, our guests and the event beautifully. A photographer plays such an important role during the big day and we couldn’t ask for a better one. Would highly recommend Sasha! Thank you again for your compassion, patience and effort in making our day so memorable with these permanent images! Forever grateful!

Sasha took some professional headshots for me and they turned out perfect! She picked out a great location, brought two different types of cameras, and effortlessly directed the shoot in the most enjoyable way. Don’t hesitate to hire her, she will certainly not disappoint!!

We were so blown away by Sasha’s work when we first saw it, but never thought we would be able to afford a photographer like her. She was so helpful in creating a custom elopement package that fit our needs and our budget. The pictures are incredible! Sometimes I can’t even believe it’s me in the photos. She knew how to position us perfectly so she caught our best angle and was such a joy to be around. We highly recommend her and will use her again for future events!

My husband and I had such a great experience with Somewhere Studios! Picking a wedding photographer was such a daunting task when we first set out to do it. But, once we chatted with Sasha we felt so comfortable and confident we had found the one, and she definitely exceeded our expectations. Neither of us have much experience in front of a camera and we were so worried we would look awkward. But with Sasha’s genuine energy we never felt that way at all. We were laughing and goofing around the whole time and that really made us feel natural in front of the camera. Our photos turned out amazing and we are having so much fun sharing them with friends and family. We will definitely hire her again for our future photography needs.

I love Sasha’s creativity! She has so many ideas to keep the energy flowing and exciting. She’s super easy to work with and we had a fun time together. I feel like she sees things differently that others wouldn’t notice. She is a true artist that really try’s to capture each moment authentically.
I highly recommend her. I can’t wait to hire her for our next life event!

Hire this woman immediately!!! My husband and I had Sasha do our baby announcement photos and my maternity shoot, and my only regret is that I didn’t know about her when we got married! Besides the fact that she is extremely warm and easy to get to know and like, her photos are astonishingly gorgeous. Don’t believe me? Check out her Instagram and see for yourself. She made me feel completely at ease in front of the camera, which is not something I am comfortable with; and her humor, kindness and encouragement enabled me to come out of my shell and achieve the ideal photos I was hoping for. She is truly the sweetest person to work with and a complete master of her craft. Her turn around time was quick and she was so accommodating of any and all requests I had. By the end of working with her, I felt like I’d known her for years and she was a very close friend. I would highly recommend her for photos of any kind, you will not be disappointed. I can’t wait for her to do our newborn’s first photos, and hopefully many more occasions after that. We have definitely found our photographer for life!

Sasha made our wedding day so special! She created a special package just for us which included engagement and boudoir photos. We initially planned to use her for just our wedding day but loved our engagement photos so much we decided to have her take photos at our rehearsal dinner also, which she made time for last minute. Neither my husband or I are super comfortable in front of the camera but that wasn’t a problem working with her, she had us laughing the whole time and the photos came out beautiful. We will continue to use her for holiday photos and hopefully maternity photos coming up soon.

I’ve known Sasha for many years and I can say, without a doubt, her photography is gorgeous. She is able to capture images and details unlike others, and she has a great eye. The editing of the photos allows for beautiful work! Not only is her photography amazing, but she’s so great to work with and is the kindest soul!! I would 100% recommend her for weddings or other events/shoots!

Sasha was great and made me feel very comfortable during my boudoir shoot! She brought some props (veils/things of that nature) that really added a special touch, and made it really easy on me so I didn't have to think too much or feel awkward! She fully prepared me and had a great communication right from the moment I booked. The pictures came out beautiful--I highly recommend her!
