    The WOW factor photographers!!

    Yelena and Vlad are the best! They were easy to get along and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We are still not sure where they stood to capture those beautiful shots. Apart from being professional, they are also open to other cultures. This made our multi cultural wedding even more memorable. We have nothing but praises for this wonderful team and we keep hearing how great they were with guests during the entire wedding. Everyone is still in a photo coma with the pictures and we highly recommend this duo!

    Wedding photographer

    We are beyond blessed to have found Yelena Tsioma Photography. They worked with extreme time differences, while planning our wedding my husband was deployed and they worked with his small window of opportunity to have a zoom meeting to talk out all our details. We flew out to Boise to get our engagement photos done. Yelena took us to the most beautiful sunrise spot. They gave us several options to choose from and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice. The entire experience was fun, and beautiful.
    The wedding was 10 months later and we couldn’t have asked for a better day. They drove to Stanley, ID and got photos from every angle and got the most beautiful, magical photos. We absolutely loved every minute!!

    Thank you so much Tanya! It was an honor to photograph you guys! You are such a beautiful couple inside and out! Thank you for trusting us to photograph your love story.

    Amazing Photographers!!!

    I booked Yelena and Vlad for my wedding and am so thankful I chose them. We had an outdoor winter wedding and Yelena and Vlad stuck it out through hours in the snow and captured incredible photos. At one point Yelena was giving up her own jacket to keep me warm in my wedding dress in between shots. They are so easy to work with and can make anybody feel comfortable in front of the camera. I cannot thank Yelena and Vlad enough for being a part of our day. They are such professional, kind and talented photographers and anybody would be lucky to book them!

    Yelena and Vlad were so wonderful to work with!! They made our day so special and we’re so easy going and fun!

    Yelena and Vlad are both very talented photographers. They partnered so well with us to create our vision for an outdoor, somewhat non-traditional, boho-y wedding. They were so fun to work with and captured such beautiful moments from our special day. We would recommend them to anyone!

    Amazing experience and photos!

    We booked Yelena and Vlad for our elopement in Stanley, Idaho, and they were so amazing to work with! Despite encountering some mountain weather on our wedding day, they were very accommodating and flexible with working through rain, wind, and cold weather to make sure we got all the shots we wanted. It was apparent how dedicated they were to our wedding day and how passionate they are about their work. They were so easy and pleasant to work with and made posing feel natural and effortless. They were even great working with our dog, who can be a little sensitive around strangers, but we still got some great photos with him!

    I happen to look at lots of wedding photography for work, so I’ve seen tons of wedding photos! Between looking through Yelena and Vlad’s portfolio and working with them, it is clear how overwhelmingly talented they are. They create timeless, creative, and truly magical photos in any setting; and their composition, use of light, and ability to capture pure emotion is simply breathtaking. We feel so lucky that they captured our special day, and we are beyond thrilled with our photos, which we will cherish for years to come!

    The value of their services is incredible since you are booking not just one but TWO highly experienced professional photographers. If you are looking for photography services for any reason, I highly recommend this phenomenal team!

    Yelena Tsioma Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Caitria! Your elopement was so beautiful, it was an honor to be your photographers! Thank you so much for trusting us to capture one of the most important days in your life.

    Amazing 🤩❤️

    Yelena and Vlad were amazing to work, we will for sure use them in the future for any other photo needs. They captured every moment beautifully and could not be more pleased with their work. Not only do they have an exceptional talent they ensure everything runs smoothly during all stages of your wedding planning. Yelena and Vlad played such a huge role the day of our wedding and couldn’t be more thankful for all of their help, kindness, and talent.

    Talented, Fun, Down to earth Photographers!

    Yelena and Vlad are truly talented photographers. They ensured our day went by seamlessly and their attention to detail is wonderful. They are two amazing people and were so easy to work with. Their ideas are so creative too! We seriously could not have asked for better people to work and share our special day with! We also purchased a photo album from them-soooo worth it! EVERYTHING was worth it. I cannot express my gratitude enough and highly recommend them (:

    Absolutely Perfect

    Yelena and Vlad put so much effort into getting to know my husband and I as a couple it completely transformed our wedding experience. They are professional, artistic, very friendly and made me feel so comfortable even though I’m extraordinarily camera shy. The experience was more than I could’ve ever possibly expected, I would absolutely recommend them for the creative ability and professionalism. Excellent quality work and stunning photos.

    Thanks to Yelena and Vlad, we had one of the best days of our lives. We could not be more pleased with how Yelena Tsioma Photography made this event a magical experience for us newlyweds and our guests. They are very professional, experienced, and accommodating when photographing the best wedding ever. They guided us every step of the way when it came to photos during the big day and the photos turned out spectacular. We could not have done it without them and for that we are very thankful. Keep up the great work Yelena and Vlad. Thanks again for everything!

    Fun, easy to work with talented photographers

    Ahh, where do I begin?! Yelena and Vlad are two very amazing humans. They made our wedding day photography something to enjoy not stress about. They are professional, talented, and love what they do. And our pictures show that. We couldn’t be more happy with our pictures, and the album. Will definitely recommend them to our friends and family.

    Best Decision Ever

    After looking at many photographers and trying to get in contact with them, Yelena was extremely responsive and easy to meet with. While she has many clients she makes you feel like you are the most important. Not only is she an amazing person to work with, her work is even better! She is the only photographer we are going to be using from here on out. I'm not exaggerating when I say that we will be planning out events around her availability.

    Yelena Tsioma Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Micah, it means so much! I really appreciate your kind words! Looking forward to photographing your beautiful family in the future.

    Can't recommend them enough!

    We loved working with Yelena and Vlad. They did a great job getting all the traditional wedding photos as well as some creative and fun shots we would never have thought of doing! We've gotten endless compliments on our wedding photos. Can't recommend them enough!

    We hired Yelena for an elopement session and are so happy with the results. We could not have asked for a more fun and effortless session. She was great on helping pick a location and we were able to use our animals in the photos too. We would use her again with no hesitation!

    Our amazing wedding photography experience with Yelena.

    Yelena (and Vlad) have been a joy to work with. Their personalities and good attitude made our wedding day that much more enjoyable. Yelena's work is phenomenal. We couldn’t be more satisfied with our pictures and wedding album. Our photos turned out to be breathtakingly beautiful and we are looking forward to sharing them with our friends and family! Yelena did a good job listening to us, fulfilling our requests, and was the fastest photographer we’ve encountered to present us with the finished product. We definitely would recommend her to anyone looking for above-average photography.

    Hiring Yelena and Vlad was the best decision I made! My family and friends all commented on how amazing and hardworking my photographers were. I have the most beautiful photos, everything that I hoped my wedding photos would be! We were even featured in a blog from my wedding dress designer: https://eddyk.com/eddy-k-bride-cassandra-in-dreams-style-sloan/ :) Opting for the package with the wedding album is SO worth it, we have the most beautiful album of memories. Hire them!

    Yelena's artistry with her photos will leave you breathless! She doesn't simply capture an image, she captures a moment encompassing the emotion of the memory. Working with Yelena and Vlad is truly an honor. They are sweet, engaging, and so fun!

    I would recommend Yelena and Vlad for any type of photography you need. They are fabulous to work with!

    Yelena and Vlad are an amazing couple to work with. They made it very convenient for us to meet and discuss what we wanted for our wedding even though it was in the middle of a global pandemic which I truly appreciated it. Their photo quality is fabulous and they really take the time to get the best pictures and make it fun. It was also great to have both angles of photos since there were two of them taking pictures. They captured all of the special moments we could have hoped for our wedding day. I appreciated their enthusiasm at trying to get photos of us with smoke bombs in pumpkins and capturing all of our guests dancing in their halloween costumes. I would recommend Yelena and Vlad for any type of photography you need.

    The absolutely best photographers out there!

    Yelena and Vlad provided the most extraordinary experience!! Every single member of my husband and my families raved about how much they enjoyed them both (we had a very small wedding where Yelena and Vlad actually stayed in the same lodge as us) and how they could not believe the care and creativity they both put into our photos. The photos are just absolutely amazing!!! (And this is coming from a gal that is notorious for hating photos of herself - and I am quite literally obsessed - truly can’t stop looking at them!!!) They both also made the experience so comforting and calming, I am not exactly comfortable being on the spot with attention on me - they both have a gift and have clearly found their calling. We can only hope they enjoyed the experience as much as we did. :)
    In my opinion, you simply cannot go wrong with them!!!

    Fantastic, unique, gorgeous photos, and a great team to work with

    We are beyond happy with the services provided by Yelena and Vlad. From engagement photos to the wedding, everything was perfect, well planned out, and they made it easy and fun! Neither myself nor my husband care much to pose for photos, but the creativity and energy of these two made it a breeze. We adore our photos and they’re truly unique and gorgeous. Our package was incredibly inclusive as well, we feel like we got a fantastic deal considering the quality of their work. Many’s photographers give you pretty standard, predictable, replicable photos. Not these guys! Hire them!!!

    Beautiful Wedding Photos!

    We used Yelena and her husband as our wedding photographers and we had such a great experience working with them. They worked with us and adjusted the original plans when Covid-19 majorly changed our wedding plans, and gave us AMAZING photos. We loved working with them both and would highly recommend them.

    Yelena Tsioma Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much Latasha! We are so glad that it all worked out, everything was so beautiful! Thank you for the opportunity to capture your love story!
