I planned my wedding from Seattle, so I actually booked Aga after only seeing her website and blog. She was great with returning e-mails and I met her for the first time on my wedding day. Apparently, that day there was some major traffic on the LIE and she still managed to be on time, and Marcin, her partner, made it to my husband's parent's house to take pictures here.

When she got to the Riviera, she snapped some "getting ready" pictures and got shots of my dress and shoes and bouquet and stuff. I actually felt kind of bad because my hair and makeup artist was running late, so I was barely half done with the primping by the time Aga showed up, but she kept herself busy shooting tons of photos and scouting the property for portrait locations.

According to my husband, Marcin was constantly snapping away at my in-laws' house when he got there, and he got some really great shots as well in the short time before the guys had to leave to head over to the Riviera.

My husband and I decided to take portraits before the wedding, so when the guys got to the Riviera, Aga and Marcin took John (my husband) and I out to the back, where it was just the four of us, and they snapped those "first look" photos, or whatever people call them. It was really nice and they were so cute!

After that, we got the entire wedding party plus parents outside for wedding party and family photos. I had told Aga that I didn't want to to take too many formal posed shots, and she was great about taking just what needed to be shot and getting the posed photos over quickly.

The ceremony pictures all turned out great - I think that people barely knew that they were there! They got some great shots.

The cocktail hour pictures were great as well - the lighting was perfect. We also had to take a few more posed shots with John's grandfather (his only living grandparent and the only grandparent present at our wedding), and Aga was great about corralling everyone and being patient with John's crazy family.

The receptions shots are great! Between Aga and Marcin, they did not miss a thing! There were a few times during the night that I thought to myself, "I hope that Aga got a picture of that," and of course she got, like, three shots from different angles. :)

I was sad to see her go at the end of the night, but it meant I got to look forward to seeing some pictures on her blog! The first picture she put up took my breath away, and then I waited on pins and needles for my slide show, and I must have watched it 237928382302 times, and I sent ti to everyone I know. Everyone says that weddings are over before you know it, and they're right. But that slide show brought me back to my wedding day every time I watched it.

Our gallery is available for us to view now, and Aga and Marcin must have taken about a million pictures, and there are so many great ones! Also, Aga is GREAT about returning e-mails, both before and after the wedding.

Really, I could not recommend Aga more - she is simply the best and I adore her so very much. She is so talented and I am so thankful that she and Marcin where the ones who captured my wedding day. I was in such good hand and you will be too. Aga is worth every penny, and everyone who has seen her photos tells me so - one guest said "... your photographer is worth her weight in gold," and I could not agree more!
