ZLATKO BATISTICH Photography

Zlatko is an amazing wedding photographer and was great to work with! He was able to capture so many wonderful moments throughout our wedding day and we will cherish our wedding pictures always. We look through our photos often and love that it helps us relive the incredible day!

Zlatko is a true gem. He is able to capture the true emotion in each moment without ever forcing it. He did everything and more to make our wedding day spectacular. He is patient, thoughtful, thorough, and incredibly generous. He even offered to stay beyond our planned end time for the sparkler send off! The photos are absolutely spectacular, and we could not be more thankful. We would recommend him without reservation and everyone!

Zlatko did a fantastic job as the photographer for our wedding day! He was punctual, professional, and a joy to work with throughout the process. It was obvious throughout the process he has exceptional skill, passion, and experience in his craft! The pictures turned out beautifully and will be treasured for years to come. Thank you for capturing our special day Zlatko!

Zlatko is extremely caring, thoughtful, and truly an expert in his field. He has an eye for capturing emotion. He made sure to capture every photo on my portrait list, worked within the allotted time, and hustled all night, constantly taking candid photos. His effort was unbeatable. Would recommend his services to everyone.

Zlatko was all we could've hoped for and more! A true professional, great communicator, and set us up for success on our wedding day. Not to mention, incredibly diligent when it came to processing the loads of amazing photos he snapped. Highly Recommend!

Zlatko was the best photographer we could have asked for on, before and after our special day. Zlatko did our engagement shoot in Central Park. He walked through the park to all of our favorite spots and had wonderful suggestions himself. We were blown away with our engagement shoot. Before our wedding, he helped us establish a timeline to ensure we got every picture we wanted. His attention to detail is impeccable. My biggest request was for Zlatko to make sure I wasn’t squinting in the majority of pictures, and some how he pulled it off. He also brought a wonderful second photographer, Alejandra Villa. We could not be happier with the pictures we have from our wedding. Our memories will last a lifetime thanks to Zlatko and his team.

From the very start Zlatko was professional, friendly, thoughtful, creative and accommodating. We were highly impressed with the turnout and quality of our engagement and wedding photos. His team was very easy to work with and made the whole process seamless. Zlatko is highly detail oriented and it showed in our pictures. He captured our wedding wonderfully and we highly recommend him.

We are blown away by Zlatko’s talent. He photographed my sisters wedding 10 years ago and we loved her pictures so did not hesitate to book him for our engagement session and wedding. Our engagement pictures were beautiful and candid and we did not feel awkward at all. Our wedding pictures look straight out of a magazine. Zlatko was non intrusive and somehow at the right place at the right time all day long. From getting ready to our sparkler exit he captured every single shot we asked for and then some. The edited images are amazing and very organized. He had over 2000 edited pictures for us on the website, easy for us to download watermark free and he also put them all on a hard drive for us. Couldn’t ask for more.

Zlatko was an absolute joy to work with! Super professional, polite, and patient! He was also super flexible with timing and locations. He perfectly captured our day - from the special details to candid shots, we are so happy with all of the photos. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer!

Zlatko was such a great guy to work with! Before the wedding, he helped me to organize the flow of the day and gave me great advice from his extensive experience in photography. On the day of the wedding, he was flexible with schedules and locations and very well prepared. He catered to what we wanted, but also guided us into some fantastic shots. He was everywhere at a moments notice to capture the perfect memories. We loved working with Zlatko and highly recommend him!

We cannot express how much we loved how Zlatko Batistich photographed our wedding. From all of the little decor details to our first look, to the special candid moments of laughter and dips on the dance floor, we felt like his photographs and editing presentation beautifully told the story of our wedding day. Our friends and family all raved about the timeless and elegant photos. Zlatko really worked tremendously hard -- all day and all night for us -- to capture every possible moment of both of us getting ready all the way to our last dance. His journalistic style is completely unobtrusive, so he's in the background versus in-your-face, which helped me as the bride stay calm and let us enjoy our reception. It was such a pleasure working with Zlatko throughout the entire process. He was incredibly responsive and couldn't have been more accommodating and helpful -- not to mention patient and gracious. (We also took our engagement photos with him, which I would also recommend as a great way to learn his style.) Zlatko is a true professional whom I whole-heartedly recommend to anyone for their big day. You will not go wrong!

My fiancee and I were referred to Zlatko by a friend who had GORGEOUS wedding photos. We asked him to first do our engagement photoshoot, and from the first 3 minutes of meeting and shooting with him, we were thrilled we had chosen him! Zlatko is professional and definitely passionate about his craft! He is very easy to work with and captures great authentic moments. On our wedding day, we did not see him put down his camera! Highly recommended!

Great experience, we are so pleased we used Zlatko and have wonderful pictures of our favorite day! We have already told several friends about him, and they have booked him as well.

Zlatko is AMAZING!! He photographed my wedding in Rye, NY as well as both my sister's weddings. He is professional, responsive on email and phone, courteous and unobtrusive. He is so pleasant, calm and gracious - we absolutely loved working with him. He listens to every request you have and is extremely patient, yet he also finds certain spots, angles, lighting on his own that you wouldn’t even think of – when we got our pictures back, we were in awe. He captured our big day perfectly and even took photos before and during our rehearsal. I can't say enough great things about Zlatko! Thank you again for everything!

Zlatko did a fantastic job photographing our wedding! He caught beautiful candid moments, and was able to capture group photos well (and quickly!). In addition to doing a fantastic job, he was a pleasure to have around on the wedding day. He was easy going, helpful, and right next to me taking pictures all day and night without me noticing. I highly recommend him to anybody looking for a wedding photographer!

Zlatko photographed my wedding a few months ago and we are SO HAPPY with our photos! He captured the fun, emotion and beauty of the whole day so well. From the posed pictures to candids on the dance floor, he got it all! Zlatko was also extremely professional, pleasant and easy to work with. I highly recommend him.

Zlatko was absolutely terrific to work with from start to finish, and most importantly produced EXCELLENT wedding photos. Zlatko was extremely responsive, and always responded to my emails in the most thorough manner, while offering his ideas and suggestions. He is extremely polite and a pleasure to work with. On the day of the wedding, Zlatko arrived early and stayed late. His style is unobstrusive, yet he manages to capture all of the details and candid moments that make the day so special. I felt like he really went above and beyond, and we couldn't be more happy that we chose to go with him. If you have the opportunity - BOOK ZLATKO! You will not be disappointed. Thank you Zlatko for all of your work!

Zlakto Batistich is an extremely talented photographer. We hired Zlatko for our engagement party and wedding and couldn’t have been more pleased. He was an absolute pleasure to work with and captured unbelievable moments. He completely blends into the scenery of your day and will capture photos you will treasure for lifetime. He is a MUST have for your special day.

We interviewed and then hired Zlatko to photograph our wedding on the recommendation of a family friend who had used him. He is very talented and delivered amazing shots of our special day in July of 2014. Zlatko was very organized, asked for a shot list so no "posed" picture was missed, and then melted into the background and photographed real moments as they unfolded. He captured the emotion of the event, the love in the room, the look in my eye, and the energy on the dance floor. As promised, a selection of proofs were ready a few weeks after the wedding and we are excitedly waiting for the final set to be available in the next few days. The proofs we received were just what we were looking for, and expect the rest will be just as wonderful! Zlatko is soft spoken, yet has an eye for photography that sets him apart from (and above) the rest!

We chose Zlatko to be our wedding photographer after looking at perhaps one hundred different photographers’ portfolios online. We were extremely particular about what we wanted: a photographer whose work reflected an understanding that the MOST important thing about a wedding is the fact that everybody you know and love is in a room together for perhaps the one and only time in your life, and you want to capture their laughter and tears and hugs and hilarious dance moves—and you want this more than you want to see your dress fluttering in the wind from fifty different angles. It seemed to me that every photographer’s portfolio had those same clichéd shots, focusing too much on material aspects of the wedding and not enough on the family and guests. Zlatko’s stood out as capturing the human element. Not that we didn’t want any of the other stuff—we did—but it’s a question of proportions. Zlatko brought clarity and seriousness to the task, which made us feel comfortable from the get-go. He was extremely responsive and dedicated, such that we felt totally confident that we could trust him to do the job right. We were not disappointed. He was also a really nice guy and we felt good about having him be a part of our celebration. Most importantly, the photographs were excellent. We got everything from crisp captures of twenty people shaking their booties to subtly composed shots of quieter moments of beauty at the reception. Important note: the lighting at our venue (Angel Orensanz) is very tricky—dark and colorful in a way that is wonderful yet challenging for photos— yet Zlatko somehow managed to deal with it perfectly.

Zlatko was an absolute pleasure to work with! I would absolutely recommend working with him. I have been to many weddings where photographers and videographers are often getting in guests way and being too aggressive. Zlatko is able to capture the best moments of your wedding without you, the groom, our your guests noticing him. My husband and I wanted to get all the formal pictures out of the way and get to the party ASAP and Zlatko and his assistant were able to work quickly to capture everything we wanted without feeling like we missed anything! Generally speaking, he is a great person to work with and to be around on the day of your wedding. The quality of his photographs are exceptional and I can't wait pick out my album, but it will be very hard since I like every photo!!!

i was VERY particular about finding a photographer. I looked high and low, and was convinced nobody would ever deliver the elegant, beautiful, timeless photos I wanted. And then I met Zlatko. I wish I could attach photos to this review so everybody could see the beauty of his work. My pictures are classic, breathtaking, elegant, and timeless. In addition, every special, intimate moment that my husband and I had on our wedding day, he caught on film, without us EVER knowing he was there. He works in the background, is completely unnoticeable, and quiet. You will NOT notice him until he delivers you these pictures that will take your breath away. Look no further, this is the best photographer you will find. And as an added bonus, he is as wonderful, sweet, and kind as they come. An absolute professional. He listens and takes to heart every one of your wishes, and will deliver exactly what you want. I have never written a review about anything in my life, but Zlatko is the exception! Thank you for all your hard work Zlatko and for giving me pictures I can cherish for a lifetime!

Zlatko is a true professional. Quick to answer emails or phone calls, always punctual and manages to get all the pictures you need in a concise way. My daughter's one wish was to enjoy her wedding and not be tied down with pictures. Zlatko was able to get the pictures we wanted and all of us were able to enjoy the festivities. Her friends dubbed Zlatko "the stealth photographer" you never knew he was there but he was everywhere.

I chose Zlatko because I loved the photojournalistic style of his pictures, and had also been assured by my wedding planner at the venue that he was so discreet and unobtrusive. He gave us such wonderful pictures, I couldn't be happier. Zlatko was really able to capture the energy, excitement, and emotion of the day. Even though I wanted to avoid taking too many posed photos, the portraits we did do of the families came out great and he was able to get the shots very quickly so we didn't have to spend too much time focusing on them. He was also an absolute joy to work with...always got back to me quickly and was so helpful and professional on the wedding day too. I wish I had another occasion coming up to hire him again!

Zlatko Batistich was the main photographer at our wedding and he did a fabulous job, be it posed couple and family shots or capturing the energy on the dance floor. As an amateur photographer myself, I can honestly say that his photos were outstanding and the way he took photos at the wedding was completely unintrusive. If it weren't for the photos that we received shortly after our a wedding, you would never have known he was there! As a wedding photographer he was also very responsive to our ideas and suggestions and at every point of the process we were very glad to have chosen him. We wholeheartedly recommend Zlatko to any couple for their wedding!

Zlatko is the ideal photographer – highly responsive, communicative, and accommodating. His photography speaks for itself and covers a wide array of shots. His calm personality is very easy to work with and he captured so many special moments while blending in with our guests. We felt that he really went above and beyond. All photography was completed and distributed within the specifications of our contract. We’ve already recommended Zlatko to several couples and we recommend him to you!

Zlatko was everything we were looking for. I wanted a natural, photojournalistic style and we got that but also so much more. Zlatko's photos are an art form with the moments and emotions he captures along with the composition. We could not be more pleased with how our photos turned out. The day of the wedding, Zlatko was very polite and professional. He never invaded our privacy, instead he made us feel at ease and like we were alone in our moments. Thank you Zlatko!

I highly recommend Zlakto to capture the moments of your special day. From the first time I contract Zlakto he was professional and calming. Before and after our wedding he was there to answer any of our questions. During the wedding he was not obviously taking pictures; he quietly documented the day. The moments that Zlakto captured during our wedding our priceless. I could not be happier with ALL of our pictures!

I can't speak more highly of Zlatko's work. From the first time we met with him, we could tell we were working with someone with a great eye. We have so many beautiful shots to choose from we aren't sure how long it will take us to decide on the ones for our album. Zlatko has this way about him that you forget he is in the room. And that allowed him to get the best candid shots. I would recommend him to anyone in an instant. If you decide to use him, you won't be disappointed.
