About

Hi, I'm Anastasiia, people call me a wedding photographer, but I like to think I’m so much more than that. '

I’m an observer, director, collaborator and cheerleader.

Because, as I see it, my job isn’t only to capture beautiful photos. It’s to capture you experiencing these beautiful moments.

- I’m an Observer

I'll help you through the day's milestones,
like formal portraits or family photos. But I'll also
blend into the background and look for the times
when you're simply having fun with friends and family.

Because I don’t just “catch” beautiful moments, I intentionally watch for them.

- I’m a Director

As a former fashion photographer, I’ve mastered the art of posing. A slight shift of your hips or tilt of your chin is often the difference between a photo you like and one that you love.

So, I’ll take an extra second to make a few adjustments guaranteed to make you look your best from head to toe.

- I’m a Collaborator

I will work alongside you and your planner to create a photo timeline that aligns with your priorities, values, and the experience you envision.

As I see it, you having the time of your life is more important than me getting the perfect shot. So I’ll intentionally build in time to ensure you receive both.

- I’m Your Cheerleader

After a decade of experience photographing weddings, I know how to read the energy of a room. I know how and when to encourage and uplift and when to give you a private moment to regroup.

Because the way I approach you sets the tone for the day. So, I’ll do everything in my power to ensure it is exceptional.

5/5 the best!

Anastasiia and Vadim are truly in a league of their own. From the very first interaction, Anastasiia felt like an old friend we’d known forever — warm, easy to talk to, and such a joy to be around. On our wedding day, she seamlessly blended professionalism with genuine care, making us feel comfortable, confident, and completely at ease in front of the camera.
Her talent is simply unmatched. It’s not just about technical skill with lighting, settings, or poses (though she masters all of that effortlessly) — her photos capture something far beyond that. Every image is breathtaking, natural, and alive with emotion. We honestly have never seen wedding photos like these before — they are remarkable and spectacular in every way.
The package she provides is also incredible value: engagement photos, detail shots, candid moments, and full-day coverage. She and Vadim didn’t miss a beat, capturing every moment big and small, and somehow made the whole experience fun and effortless for us.
Hiring them was hands down one of the best decisions we made. These photos are treasures we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives, and we can’t recommend them enough.

Picture Perfect Photographers!

The ABSOLUTE best photographers are Anastasiia and her husband Vadim.
They were a God sent and truly have a gift. Their work speaks for itself as every photo captures a story and a cherished memory. We felt an overwhelming sense of joy as we went through our wedding photos. They masterfully captured every detail from the décor, a huge bridal party, family photos to organic and spontaneous moments.
Their dedication was palpable. They never left our side and the photos reflect their passion. It was clear that they genuinely cared about telling our story through their lens, and that made all the difference.
As a bride you can relax and trust Anastasiia and Vadim. We are immensely thankful they were our photographers and for a wonderful experience. Thank you, Anastasiia and Vadim, for capturing our wedding day in such a heartfelt way!

So Happy with our Wedding Photos!

My husband and I selected Anastasiia Photography as our wedding photographer as a recommendation from a friend of a friend – and we are so happy that we did!

Anastasiia and Vadim were easy to get in touch with, quick to respond and extremely patient with our many questions and inquiries. Not only did they provide us with a large selection of photos but they were all great quality!

Anastasiia and Vadim made taking photos on our wedding day an enjoyable experience. They are super positive, professional, creative and were just fun to be around! Most importantly, they have a talent for making people feel comfortable and confident behind the camera. We are so happy with our wedding photos and would absolutely book Anastassiia Photography again for future events!

The best there is.

Anastasiia and her husband, Vadim are one of our fondest memories of not only our wedding itself but the entire process that led up to it, beginning with the best engagement photo shoot we could have asked for. We are not a couple that takes a lot of photos, and we’d never done a photoshoot before, so we were very nervous for our engagement shoot. Anastasiia immediately made us feel comfortable, blasting music to break the silence and pumping us up the whole time. She did an impeccable job of cuing us for certain poses but also capturing the candid, natural moments.
Her talent is unmatched and her spirit is like any other. She is the best cheerleader you could ever hope to have with you on your special day. We are so lucky to have met her, and we'll always be so grateful for the most amazing memories that she preserved for us so beautifully. If you have the opportunity to book her for a special event, do it. You will be SO glad you did.

I have NEVER been so impressed or felt so beautiful!!

I recommend working with Anastasiia with my whole heart! You will only continue to be impressed by her. I found her by going to my venue and looking at tagged photos and when I saw her work I immediately reached out. My (now) husband and I hopped on a call with her later that week and there was not a doubt in our mind we wanted to work with her. First impressions - She is kind, clear, joyful, and knows what she's doing.

When we went to do our engagement photos with her at the Biltmore, she was even more amazing in person. She's the ultimate hype woman, has great playlists, and knew so many great spots and poses for us. She plays off of your energy and if you're enjoying a spot or a pose she leans into it. It's almost like she reads your mind if you aren't feeling it and tweaks it effortlessly. She makes it easy to pose and made me feel like the most beautiful person she had ever photographed. My now husband enjoyed the entire process as well (this was our first time getting professional photos). Even knowing all of that and how great we both felt with her, the pictures she gave us back still blew our minds. They were beyond my imagination. The editing, the detail, the background and how she had us stand, the way the almost kissing pictures turned out looking editorial rather than awkward, the entire experience was amazing.

Leading up to our rehearsal dinner and wedding she had a full meeting with us and gave us great information on how to get all of the pictures we wanted and listened to what our priorities were. We gave her back a list for pictures to make sure we got some with everyone. The day of could not have gone more smoothly (and we have 2 divorced families). She encouraged being present in the moment and enjoying our entire day. She is great at getting everything plus being somewhat spontaneous when she sees a great opportunity and those shots ended up being some of my favorites!

My absolute favorite thing about working with her (besides the final portfolio making me love the way I look, which is incredible - I've never felt so good about my body and especially my nose lol) was all of the compliments that I got from my friends and family about her. Her professionalism, her speed, her hype woman vibes, her personality, and her direction were all complimented to me by so many people. I wasn't the only one blown away, it's just who she is. She is impressive in every way.

Her husband was seamless with my husband and the groomsmen. I was nervous they would look stiff without Anastasiia there, but they look happy, relaxed, and like themselves having a great time in the groomsmen photos. I think the best part about Vadim is that he fits in with the guys so well that they almost forget he's someone they just met. And he makes a great partner when she is explaining poses hahaha.

Over all, there is no one better to photograph your engagement or wedding. Go to her insta and see all of the beautiful photos she's taken and know that those are not just a handful of what you get back, that's basically every photo you get back! Trusting her is a flawless decision when you have to make 100+ decisions for your big day. While I questioned the menu, the flowers, the dress, etc, I'm telling you from the moment we had an initial call with her, we never questioned or second guessed choosing her for even a second.

Dream Team!!

Dream team!! I knew going into the wedding weekend that Anastasiia was great, but the day-of experience with her and Vadim exceeded all my expectations!! Choosing her as my photographer was the best decision, she was my favorite vendor out of the entire weekend! Being one of the last of my friends to get married, I can honestly say that her and Vadim bring so much energy and made the photo experience so much fun! I truly will never forget Vadim carrying around the music and us taking photos all over Grove Park Inn. They make a great team and are a joy to work with!

The BEST photographers!!!

Anastasiia and her husband were absolutely incredible to work with! We cannot say enough great things! We were looking for someone with experience photographing South Asian weddings because we knew how chaotic they can be with the multiple events, outfit changes and performances. The moment we looked at her work, we fell in love with her style and immediately scheduled our first call. They say that the one vendor that is with you the entire wedding is your photographer, and it should be someone that you are comfortable with and trust. We knew instantly that she was who we wanted to be there with us during our wedding day. We were one of those weddings that had to be postponed, and she was so kind and professional through that whole process. When our wedding finally came, she far exceeded our expectations. We were so blessed to work with such a kind and professional team. I was so worried about being awkward in photos since it’s not my thing, but she made the whole experience fun and made us feel so comfortable and at ease. She was so kind and encouraging as well and I truly appreciated that!
Anastasiia captured it all! Every single wedding photo came out absolutely incredible and far more beautiful than I could have imagined! By the time it came to getting the album made, we could not decide! Our wedding album also came out so beautiful and there is nothing quite like having it in your hands. So, I will say, from the moment we spoke to her first, through our wedding planning process, our wedding day, seeing the final product, and to our wedding album, we could not have asked for a better duo to work with! They are the all-star team you want by your side and will truly go above and beyond! So do we recommend them? HECK YES, WE DO! Thank you so much, Anastasiia Photography!

The most amazing photographer

Where do I even start?!

I met Anastasiia back in 2016 when she was the photographer for my sisters wedding. I was so amazed at how much fun she made it and how creative she was, that tI knew when it was my turn to get married, she would definitely be my photgrapher.

Fast forward 6 years later, before I booked or reserved anything, I made sure Anastasiia would be available for that day. AND BOY AM I GLAD I DID!

The whole day Anastasiia was my biggest fan, my cheerleader, my hype girl and I couldn’t imagine picking anyone else to capture such a special day so perfectly. She really went above and beyond all of my expectations!

The pictures speak for themselves, but if you need words of affirmation, this is your sign to hire her! You will be so happy you did :)

Anastasiia is truly amazing!!

Anastasiia is amazingly talented, kind, and so much fun! She is so invested in her couples and isn't just a day-of vendor! I appreciated her planning calls and emails and exciting texts of encouragement and support during the planning process! I have never seen more stunning photography-she knows how to capture the best and most joyful moments of the day (not just the posed photos). I have admired Anastasiia's talent for years and am SO happy she was available on our wedding day! I could not imagine anyone else making me feel so comfortable and beautiful in front of the camera all day! Definitely HIGHLY recommend!
