We had such a great experience with Ilya! We were a large group with lots of kids, and he was incredibly patient and easy to work with. He made the whole process feel so smooth and managed to get amazing shots of everyone. He works quickly, knows exactly what he’s doing, and the pictures came out beautiful! We’re so happy with his work and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great photographer!

Reviews
I booked with Ilya for a surprise proposal shoot and the pictures came out great. Ilya was super easy to work with and was very responsive. Would recommend!
Couldn’t ask for a better photographer for our elopement. Our pictures came out beautifully and I am beyond happy with the end product.
Ilya was very responsive and courteous from the very beginning and throughout the entire process. We did an elopement photo shoot and the photos turned out amazing. I was impressed with the quality of the work and the composition of the photos. Ilya was very patient with us, made us feel comfortable and suggested the best spots for the photos. Highly recommend!
Showed up on time. Delivered a quick turn-a-round time. However, the photos were not crisp or high quality. The color contrasts was not great either. There was little or no editing to improve photos. The final product was equivalent to a phone or less. Our photos taken by our phones were actually better.
We couldn’t be happier with the photos from our proposal! Ilya did an amazing job capturing one of the most important and special moments of our lives. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful, and we love how natural and genuine every moment looks. He captured all the little details, emotions, and reactions perfectly, giving us memories that we’ll be able to cherish forever. We’re so grateful for his professionalism, talent, and attention to detail. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone to capture a truly special moment! Thank you for helping make our proposal unforgettable! ❤️
Ilya did a top rate job at our wedding! He was professional, responsive and most importantly he took excellent photos on our big day. We highly recommend him. Thank you, Ilya!
Ilya was a quiet surprise from Thumbtack! His professionalism and responsiveness is greatly appreciated. More than anything else he was like a spy. You could never tell where he was, but he made sure to capture the moments that really mattered to me. Thank you so much for helping my vision come to life.
Ilya was great! very responsive & reasonably priced. Took so many pictures, I was actually surprised as to how many pictures he sent me just 2 days after my event. Was able to download all pics, and once i selected my favorites, he sent me the edited photos in just 1 more day! Would def recommend Ilya for any event!
Amazing work, worth every penny we spent on this photoshoot. We had a sailboat photoshoot planned and we couldn’t have asked for a better outcome, it was dreamy and just beautiful.
Overall great experience, from the beginning to the very end! Was very patient and kind throughout the whole shoot. Constantly gave recommendations, guidance, insight, and most importantly high quality photos!
Ilia was a great collaborator who helped us achieve our company’s product shots for our e commerce website. He was very swift, responsive and accommodating and delivered our images professionally and promptly. Highly recommend his services.
Ilya did a great job! He was very responsive, punctual, and the photos were great. I would definitely recommend.
I had such a great experience working with Ilya. The photos came out beautifully — they really captured the energy and fun I was looking for while in Salem. The whole process was easy, relaxed, and enjoyable, and the turnaround time was super quick. I’m so happy with how everything turned out and can’t wait to include some of these in my travel photo book.
Ilya was more than we could’ve hoped for in a wedding photographer. Ilya was prompt with his reply, fair and upfront with his cost and punctual on the wedding day. He made sure to familiarize with the property and ensure the best angles and backgrounds for all the photos. He was professional, pleasant and cordial with his interactions with everyone he encountered. We were thrilled with the results and wouldn’t hesitate to use Ilya again for any family function that would come up.
I did my wedding photos with Ilya, and the service was excellent! He was punctual, kind, and very efficient. The whole experience was smooth and enjoyable, and the photos turned out beautiful. I highly recommend him!
cannot recommend enough. As a wedding photographer, I've seen firsthand how much stress and anxiety can come with planning a wedding, especially when it comes to finding vendors who fit your budget without sacrificing quality. But with him, you get the best of both worlds. Their pricing is incredibly reasonable, so much so that I was initially skeptical about the quality of work we would receive. However, they completely blew my expectations out of the water. We barely had to provide any direction, as he understood our vision and captured the essence of our day with stunning clarity and artistry. The entire process was seamless. We simply provided them with our shot list and let them work their magic. We're beyond thrilled with the results and have a beautiful collection of photos that perfectly tell the story of our wedding day. If you're a couple feeling stressed about the cost of a wedding photographer, look no further. [Photographer's Name] is the answer. Their work is high-quality, their prices are unbeatable, and they make the entire process effortless.
I had such a great experience working with Ilya. He is very professional, punctual, and easy to work with. From the start, he made sure to understand exactly what I wanted and delivered beyond my expectations. What I really appreciated was how flexible and attentive he was during the editing process, he gave me exactly what I asked for and worked with me until I was completely satisfied. His work speaks for itself, and the final pictures came out beautifully. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and talented photographer. He is a 10/10
I am devastated and I can’t stop crying.I hired Ilya for my brother’s funeral and he arrived on time to take pictures, but captured nothing. All of our family live abroad and couldn’t make it to the service so I was looking for a photographer to capture everything for the service. As a way to help my mom I requested a photographer to capture the emotions and everything from the service. I made this known when making a request. He barely captured anything. I am utterly devastated and can’t go back in time and this is adding to my grief. During the funeral service I had several people go to Ilia to remind him to take pictures because I knew that my mom would want to see everything. He remained seated the majority of the time. I reminded him during the service that I wanted him up and moving and still for 5 hours of service, I was provided with 107 photos, that are all far away and don’t show the service. I wish he would have told me that he couldn’t do the job. I am utterly devastated. He took a memory from me that I can never get back. Yes he said he wanted to be discreet, but I am paying you for a service. Every time I looked back he was seated not taking pictures. None of the main parts of the service were captured. I can’t stop crying. 90% of the photos are of the back of people’s heads and are far away. My mother did not get to bury her son and now I have nothing to truly show her. I paid $800 for a service and I feel gutted and robbed of the last chance I had to see my brother. I wish he would have just declined if he was not up for it. None of the pictures matches the quality of work from his website. I am just heartbroken
Ilya was great! He inspired me with his ideas and the results of the shoot were amazing! 10/10 would recommend :)
