Vera did an incredible job capturing our surprise proposal in Central Park. She was professional, calm, and made the entire experience feel easy and natural from start to finish. She knew exactly where to position herself and how to guide us afterward while still keeping everything authentic. Her attention to detail and ability to capture genuine emotion really stood out. The photos are beautiful and perfectly reflect such a special moment for us. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend her.

Vera was excellent! Her professionalism was top tier and she overall has such an amazing personality and is enjoyable to work with. She directed me on how to pose which was important being that this was my first photoshoot ever! She came up with different ideas for poses and was overall very prepared. She is very enthusiastic with her work and I would recommend her to anyone! I will definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you again Vera!

Details: Graduation portrait • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Artistic (focus on composition, lighting) • I'm flexible • At the pro’s location

Vera is amazing photographer with an extraordinary set of skills. She was able to provide a great studio, lighting and even help me with my makeup. She also helped me feel comfortable and gave me ideas for poses. Please look no further and book Vera. I was nervous and she made me feel extremely comfortable.

We had a perfect engagement photo shoot with Vera. She was easy to schedule with and was waiting for us when we arrived. She led us around Dumbo and picked great locations for pictures. She sets up very good shots. Her photo editing is excellent and very professional. I would recommend her to friends and work with her again in the future.

FAQs

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    I like to talk to a customer before the shooting to discuss what style, location they prefer. While shooting I would show you some exhamples so you decide wether we are moving in the right direction. You are free to give your ideas too.

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    Well, probably every photographer has a story “my dad had a very old film camera I was very interested in”… he also mentioned that you can’t really make a living out of art.://So, I gave up. But… I always had that passion in a corner of my mind. Also, professional equipment is a very expensive investment…And then one day I got into an accident riding home on my bicycle. Got hit by a car, nothing too crazy but I couldn’t work and support myself. I struggled a lot as I’m an immigrant from Ukraine. So I decided I needed a compensation or I wouldn’t make it. I can admit I was lucky to get some $$$ and decided I will invest a part of it to pursue my old dream of becoming a professional photographer. I took few online classes, got a brand new equipment and as I healed, I was ready for a new chapter of my life. “What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger.”
