My wife and I had the absolute pleasure of having Tatiana as our photographer for our recent elopement wedding in California. We were very nervous about trying to plan a wedding at a distant location as we currently live in New Jersey. Tatiana was a constant calming presence throughout the whole process. She met with us virtually multiple times leading up to the ceremony. During these virtual meetings, she made us feel at ease and truly made an effort to get to know us and our story. On the day of our ceremony, she was on site early to check out the location and prepare for all aspects of the photo shoot. During the photo shoot, she was the ultimate professional. She completed the editing of our photos in a matter of a few weeks, and the results were STUNNING! It is obvious that Tatiana loves what she does and her passion for her art is evident in every single photo that she took of our special day. I HIGHLY recommend that you use Tatiana as your photographer for any special event that you are planning. She's the BEST!
It's impossible to sum up all the ways in which Tatiana exceeded our expectations and delivered everything we wanted and more when it came to capturing the magic on our wedding day! From the pre-wedding coordination, to the days leading up, the wedding itself, and the post-wedding communications we were always left with a sense of confidence and excitement. She really loves what she does and it truly shows in the exceptionally high quality of her work! We were blown away when we received our photos less than a month after the wedding and every single one was a stunner! She did a fantastic job capturing everything we wanted from the big moments to the smaller, more intimate ones. We are forever grateful for having Tatiana as our photographer! 1000% would recommend!
We hired Tatiana for our elopement photos. Being from out of town, we wanted someone who knew the Carmel/Big Sur area really well and she definitely does! She had great advice not only for photo locations but also area restaurants and activities. Since you're with your photographer for several hours, it's important that you get along and Tatiana is very easy to get along with! She really made an effort to get to know us as a couple so that we were comfortable and at ease on the elopement day. She was very patient with my physical limitations.
Finally, the photos were stunning. Looking through them was like reliving that very special day, and she really captured our emotions and personalities as well as the incredibly stunning natural landscape. Highly recommend!
Tati was an outstanding photographer and went above and beyond in capturing one of the most special moments of our lives. She was incredibly helpful from the very beginning with site suggestions, color palette, and her creative vision turned out to be brilliant. She is a fearless visionary photographer and pushed us to climb rocks and walk through sand, which all turned out to be 100% worth it! She also took the time to connect over the phone to make sure she was capturing everything that was important to us. She went above and beyond and made a special accommodation to make sure the edits are on-time for our save-the-dates and knot website. I loved how responsive and prompt she was to answering my questions too! I've done many photoshoots throughout my life and Tati stood out as someone who had an incredible balance between professionalism and creativity. HIGHLY RECOMMEND working with Tati for your engagement photoshoot!! Worth every penny!
There aren’t enough words of gratitude to describe how my wife and I feel about having Tatiana join us for our private elopement. We are so happy we found her!! She’s such a fantastic spirit – creative; excellent sense of humor and adventure; and really listened to us to tailor her approach to what we wanted and offered all kinds of advice along the way. Thank you for being so great to us, Tatiana! (PS: We also needed an officiant and Tatiana’s MIL was available. It was really great to have them as a team, too.)
My husband and I are absolutely in awe of Tatiana and her AMAZING talent! We had the time of our lives at our elopement ceremony on the Big Sur Coast largely due to Tatiana and her magic! From our first interaction with Tatiana during our prep call, I knew we were lucky to have her as our photographer! She was so much fun to talk to and we could instantly feel that she is such a genuine person! We love her natural approach with photography and free spirit energy! Our loved ones have told us that they can feel our joy through our breathtaking coastal and redwood photos! Tatiana took us to special spots that we had never seen before and we nearly had the beach to ourselves! My husband and I had our first dance on the beach listening to our favorite music that Tatiana played for us! It was more lovely than I could have ever imagined or hoped for. She also made us the most beautiful keepsake wedding photo album that we will be enjoying for years to come! I adore this magical album as it fills me with pride am joy and transports us to that magnificent day! Thank you Tatiana!!! We are forever grateful to you and hope to work with you again if the occasion presents itself!
Tatiana helped us plan and execute the best day of our lives. We knew we wanted a private wedding in Carmel/Big Sur, but we could never imagine it would turn into a full day adventure exploring most of our favorite spots in the area and creating life lasting memories. Her approach is very natural - you are in the most amazing date of your life and she is documenting every moment. Since day one she made us feel very comfortable with her process and helped us coordinate every detail. Her energy and charisma is contagious. She will make you feel like the most important person in the world. The end result was magical. We look at the pictures almost every day. Tatiana is our friend for life now. She is an amazing human being and professional. Tatiana we love you. You are part of our lives forever now :-)
It all started with a google search. We were looking for a local artist that would capture the beauty of the Monterey Bay scenery, that had experience with small ceremonies plus elopement adventures, that was willing to truly adventure with us, and that was NOT going to give us the commercial, cheesy portrait studio wedding pictures we can’t stand. From the get go, we knew Tatiana Scher was the ONLY photographer we wanted to work with. She checked each of these boxes, plus her photography style, her eye for location, beauty, composition, color and mood and her use of lighting were so unique and stunning. Lucky for us, she was available for our 11.11.22 elopement and was willing to work with us—never mind the fact that we had ZERO plans in place and wanted to get married in less than sixty days! From helping me find a gorgeous $200 dress, to scouting several incredible locations (each of which we thoroughly enjoyed!), to comforting us when we got Covid a week before the elopement, to totally changing the plans due to our illness while still preserving every wedding fairytale wish I had, she made it all happen. Spending the day with her was so much fun and so romantic. We spent our wedding day laughing, joking, dancing, kissing, hiking up crazy rock formations and thoroughly enjoying our first few hours of wedded bliss while Tatiana hiked even higher than us to get those incredible unreal angles! Then, after all of that, we received the most gorgeous, beautiful, fun, sexy, classy wedding photos, with incredible photographic range! Bonus points because they arrived ahead of our expected delivery date!
This artist deserves ALL of the hype! Please book Tatiana Scher, you will NOT be disappointed!
We absolutely LOVED having Tatiana photograph our wedding. Extremely thoughtful, both with her photographs and with us, our family, and guests. She’s very thorough in learning about the space before the day of the event. For example, she went to our venue a few weeks before to find angles, shot ideas, and build a schedule that would work best during golden hour.
Once we got our photos, we were over the moon with how they looked and how natural myself and my wife looked. She captured so many wonderful moments.
We would easily hire her again to shoot family photos, events, or more. Don’t hesitate! She’s the best.
We cannot sing Tatiana's praises enough! She photographed our wedding in Big Sur, and after seeing the photos, we could not have had a better person capture our special day. We ended up with a beautiful story that far surpassed our expectations, especially since I freeze up and make faces when I typically get photos taken. She was lovely to work with, made us feel comfortable and laugh, and we often even forgot she was there during times like our first dance. Our friends and family are still commenting on how beautiful the photos are, and we couldn't agree more! Thank you for capturing the most beautiful, loving day and showing the love that we have for each other. You are amazing! - Heather & Jeremy
Tatiana did an amazing job capturing our personalities and captured amazing photos that caught the beauty of the forest around us and each other. We had never had a professional photo shoot before so Tatiana's personality and humor helped us both feel more comfortable and we enjoyed the experience so much! It truly was so special to have our photos taken with her and have her capture our wedding. Definitely recommend Tatiana to anyone in the Monterey area!
Tatiana is so fun to work with. She made everything very fun and is an amazing director and photographer. We are extremely pleased with how she captured our wedding day. If I had the chance to go back in time, I would book her again and again. 10 stars!
Our photoshoot with Tatiana was an absolute blast. She is funny, punctual, and professional. My wife and I adore the pictures she took of us for our wedding. We would recommend Tatiana to everyone!
Tatiana went above and beyond capturing the perfect wedding photos. She provided excellent communication throughout the planning process as well as the day of our wedding to ensure that everything went smoothly.
Tatiana was AMAZING to work with! We can not say enough how great our experience with her was. We decided to plan our elopement a week before our planned vacation to Big Sur/Carmel area and Tatiana played a vital role in pulling everything off. As we have never been there before, we trusted her to find us the location for our ceremony and photos. WE WERE BLOWN AWAY! She made us feel so comfortable when usually I feel nothing but awkward in front of a camera. We had an amazing time, got to hike to the most breathtaking views, and the photos we have will be cherished forever! We cannot wait to print them and hang them in our future home! I would 100% recommend working with Tatiana!
Tatiana took the photos for our wedding and they were STUNNING!!! As this was an LGBTQ wedding, she made us feel so comfortable and at ease. She so beautifully captured not only us but all the silly, fun, and special people in our lives. We loved how our pictures didn't come out super posed even though she was organized and made sure to get us all the "must have" shots. Plus, she was FUN and lovely and warm and caring. My wife and I couldn't be happier.
