Svetlana Photography

Svetlana photographed our wedding at Villa St. Clair in August. We have nothing but wonderful things to say about the job she's done. Very professional, very assertive (which is necessary when dealing with our group), yet not rude or mean. The photos turned out phenomenal and on time. The price was very affordable. Overall, a great service and we'd recommend Svetlana to anyone wanting a great photographer at their wedding.

Thank you for your excellent work at our wedding. The pictures are stunning! I don’t really have any experience hiring photographers, but I felt that you made the process very easy – you were relaxed. professional, and a pleasure to have at our wedding. You came highly recommended and your reputation is very much deserved. Again, thank you!

Svetlana is amazing! Our engagement photos were so good! We are waiting to see our wedding photos but I just know they have to be great! She is very professional and seems like she is everywhere at once! She pays close attention to detail and is again amazing like I said. I can't wait to see our wedding photos!

My husband and I are extremely happy with all the photos that Svetlana took of our wedding. She is extremely creative and is wonderful at capturing pictures that you wouldn't oridinarily think of. We loved the photojournalistic look of her pictures and I would highly recommend using her for your wedding!

I can't recommend Svetlana any more. We used her for our wedding and now we will use her for any photo sessions we ever have in the future. She is a great talent.

We really wanted our photos to capture the day - to tell the story of our wedding rather than having a lot pf posed and arranged shots. Svetlana was brilliant at capturing just the right moments!

I can’t say enough great things about Svetlana.  She did an absolutely amazing job on both my bridal and wedding photos.  It was so difficult choosing a bridal portrait and pictures for the album because there were so many beautiful ones to choose from.  I still get compliments from friends and family on how great the photos are.  After our first conversation and looking at her portfolio online, I knew she would be a perfect choice.  Not knowing where to take outdoor bridal photos in the Austin area, she stepped right in and suggested a wonderful location.  Svetlana is extremely talented and a true  professional.  She makes you feel like one of your best friends is taking the photos!  She puts you right at ease and provides great direction.  My husband and I loved the photos and highly recommend Svetlana!  We will definitely be using her again in the future.. Mrs. Jacob Lester

She did an awesome job! I look at my beautiful wedding pictures every day. I highly recommend her services.

Svetlana is a joy to work with! Her vision and talent is phenomenal. Most importantly, she is able to understand and conceptualize her clients' wishes into the final product. Svetlana is flexible and willing to go the extra mile for her clients. I highly recommend her services.

Svetlana was amazing. She works so hard and makes sure you get all of the shots that you want and more. You can tell that she doesn't just take pictures to earn a paycheck, she sincerely cares about the quality of the shots and the outcome of the pictures and the final product shows it. My wife has already recommended her to multiple other brides and was so satisfied with the pictures that she bought 5 wedding albums.

Svetlana provided both a profession and personal service for my daughter's wedding and later for one of my neice's. If we ever have a need for a professional photographer, I would most certainly call on Svetlana to do the job. She felt like part of our family and made sure everything was taken care of 100%. The photos we received will serve as beautiful memories for the rest of our lives. Thank you Svetlana :).

Svetlana did an amazing job photographing our wedding. We loved every picture. She worked very hard the whole time! Great choice :).

We just wanted to send you a note to say that we love the pictures….they are fabulous! Everyone we have sent them to can’t   believe how gorgeous they are – many have said they look like they could go on postcard or in a magazine advertisement, so thank you! You captured the spirit of happiness and excitement that our day brought.  You were extremely easy and flexible to work with and we so appreciate that. Thank you for beautifully capturing the wonderful memories and details of our special day! – Allie and Scot

Being a professional photographer myself, I wanted to make sure I choose the right photographer for my once in a lifetime event! Svetlana was my choice, and she went above and beyond all my expectations and did an amazing job capturing our wedding day! Her professionalism, her artistic and discerning eye, and ability to tell our story in a fashion that we will remember for years to come was worth every penny and then some! - Michael Samaripa with Inner Lights Creations

There is no word to describe Svetlana and the miracle that she gave to my husband and I. I was never able to have the beautiful white wedding that I had dreamed of until recently when my husband said "lets just do it". No matter what age we are, all brides want to be Princess for that one special day of their lives. We had planned a beautiful outside wedding at our home at 7:00 in the evening due to the August heat and had decorated everything for picture taking so you can imagine my feelings when after months of no rain it rained right before the wedding. All of our photographs had to be taken in my bedroom and in the dark. Svetlana kept me busy reassuring me that everything was going to be fine, kept me laughing so much my mouth hurt at the end of the evening and continued to take photos of me and my bridesmaids. During the ceremony I really did not see much of her and after she took many photos of Robert and I and our families. I was disappointed that everything that I had set up for photos did not work out, that was until I saw the photos. Svetlana did not just take photos of us, she somehow managed to capture our personalities. I might not have seen Svetlana during the ceremony but she must have been everywhere, the way she captured the Texas sky, my tears saying my vows, when the balloon popped and the Preacher joked about a shotgun wedding, when I said "I do" before I promised anything. Each photo she took tells the story of our wedding. EVERYONE who has seen our wedding photos has said the same thing, THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT, THEY ARE WORKS OF ART. What I have are beautiful works of art that I will hand down to my daughter and her daughter and so forth, not put in an album tucked in a drawer somewhere. These photos are so beautiful that they would look beautiful on anyone's wall no matter who the people were in them. No-one would ever know from the photos that the wedding was not planned just the way it was photographed. How incredible is it that I have hundreds of photos and not one of them would I want to hide. The biggest problem is trying to figure out which ones to print. Svetlana made my dream come true, I was Princess for the day and I have many, many beautiful works of art to prove it.

Svetlana is a great photographer! She is very attentive to her clients, flexible in communication and open to clients' suggestions. I will highly recommend her as a professional and a great person!

I did extensive research before hiring a photographer. Svetlana met all my criteria and delivered a high quality product for a reasonable price. It was a pleasure working with Svelana and I was overjoyed by our photos. And now she has years more of experience under her belt!

While Svetlana didn't know a thing about baseball you wouldn't know it after looking at my bridal portraits and wedding pictures! She is very personable and all of my family and friends loved her. She has a wonderful eye that can't be beat! She got shots I wouldn't even have thought of. My friends and family still rave about our wedding as we look through the photo books she made. We loved her so much we hired her again to do family portraits for my entire family 6 months later. I highly recommend Svetlana!!

Svetlana was my photographer for our wedding day, as well as engagement and bridal pictures. She truly was a joy to work with! She was very professional and asked a lot of questions to understand your vision, very timely on appointments and really makes the process fun and effortless. Truth be told, she far exceeded expectations and captured my special moments just beautifully. She has such a creative and artistic eye and is extremely talented!!! (Definitely get the coffee table book - all my friends and family love it. It's so much easier and fun to look at rather than those huge photo albums.) Jennifer

Our wedding photos are beautiful!! Svetlana did such a great job! That night was a blur so I’m glad most of it is captured in her pictures. Now, the hard part is trying to pick the pictures for our album since we have such a great selection. Thanks Svet!
