    Unique skills that translate into beautiful, timeless photos.

    Absolutely wonderful experience working with Liliya and Albert for our engagement photo session and wedding! They each bring unique skills that translate into beautiful, timeless photos. They also are extremely easy to work with when posing for shots and know exactly how to give you the photos in the style you like. Added bonus, they are both incredibly kind and we felt at ease the moment we met them. They are very professional and very on top of their work. We loved all of our photos and the whole experience. Highly recommend! Thank you so much!!

    Clean and elegant, editorial style photography duo

    When we were looking for wedding photographers for our wedding, we were looking for very classic, elegant, and simple wedding photographers. Albert and Liliya had the style we were looking for with a touch of editorial style in their posing. What we really loved about them was not only their outstanding photographs but also how sweet and kind these two souls are! After our phone call, we knew that they would be the best fit for our wedding. We were so happy with their presence on our day, it was such a great experience working with them! Thank you Liliya and Albert for everything you did for us and for all of the amazing photos that we will cherish forever!

    Stunning Photos and A Pleasure To Work With!

    Chernogorov's photos of our event are absolutely stunning! I love their aesthetic and they delivered exactly what I was looking for.

    Albert and Liliya were also a pleasure to work with. My husband and I felt extremely comfortable with them and our guests had extremely positive things to say about them as well. I would definitely work with them again.

    10/10 recommend

    Albert and Liliya are definitely one of the best wedding photographers in Vegas right now! Their communication was clear and they were professional throughout the day. First, planning with them prior to the wedding day helped ease the stress of the day. They let us know what we needed to prep before they arrived to capture all the details of my dress and accessories so it was easier to get started. Also, they helped with the timeline of the day, so we can have the most time doing our formal photos of us and our family. They scouted locations prior and knew the perfect spots around our neighborhood (at home wedding). They were very clear on how to pose too! My husband and I can be awkward in front of the camera but they gave us tips and tricks on our posture and posing so we looked natural in our photos. Also, as a husband and wife team, they were able to show us exactly how to do a pose before we had to do it ourselves which made it even more clear on how to carry out a pose. They were very efficient and professional during the whole process. During the ceremony, they were not an obstruction to the environment and still took beautiful pictures. They blended in and so happy they were able to capture all the special and emotional moments. Lastly, our family and friends cannot stop raving about how beautiful and creative the photos turned out! I have friends who are still showing their friends the photos because they are unreal! Also, our family who joined us that day, can’t stop raving about how professional, efficient, and great people Albert and Liliya. They are an amazing team! 10/10 recommend them for your wedding day!

    Engagement Photos

    The best photographers in Las Vegas. They did our engagement photos in Paris (France). They tailored and accommodated their time to fulfill our dream photos. Albert and Liliya are always so polite and so generous. I can’t thank them enough.

    Amazing couple & even better photographers

    These days there are so many vendors and thousands of reviews for each of them. It is so hard to know if you are picking the right one for you. We got engaged May 2020 and as you can imagine everything felt like chaos when we began planning our wedding. A date was set, and a destination wedding was picked….in FABULOUS LAS VEGAS. Other than my grandparents living there, I didn’t even know where to begin with vendors! Of course, I got on the hunt and started searching through The knot, WeddingWire, and all the other helpful wedding sites thrown at me. Picking a photographer was one of the first things me and my husband (eek so weird saying that!) started searching for. We talked to several people and heard them all out and then we spoke with Albert and Liliya Chernogorov. Looking through their photo albums I was already in love but when we got off the phone with them…My husband was the first to say, “I like them the best”. The warmth and knowledge they brought to the table was incredible. Once we booked with them it immediately brought us ease in planning. When speaking about our timeline of how the wedding day would look, the experience they had was obvious, there were things I had not even thought about! Even with googling a thousand things “not to forget”. Our engagement session was the first time we met them and my husband, who hates those public intimate moments, said after we were alone, “that was really fun, I could do that again”. Liliya and Albert are really the best at what they do and will make you feel so comfortable. Our wedding day was perfect because of their timeline…they left space I didn’t think we needed but thank goodness for their expertise! We also had them leaving an hour before our wedding ended but they decided to stay until the very end and one of our favorite pictures is us leaving during the sendoff! They did NOT have to do that, but they knew it was important to us and did not even charge us for the extra hour. What they say is so true, your wedding day goes by so quick and all you have left is the photos and memories from that day. AND THE PHOTOS WERE BREATHTAKING. Not to mention we got over 180 sneak peek pictures just a couple days after the wedding!! Choosing Albert and Liliya will be the best decision you can make, in all honesty. We would book with them 100 times over.

    Capturing a dream come true!

    Albert and Liliya are so talented and relentless when it comes to perfection! We have hired them to do multiple photo shoots. First, our engagement. Second, our wedding. And most recently, they did a dreamy photoshoot for us on the California coast in Big Sur and Carmel-by-the-Sea! They researched and scoped out all the best spots for us. Their warm personalities made us feel so comfortable and it reflected so naturally in our photos. I felt like we were living a dream! We explored the most amazing hidden spots in Big Sur and Carmel-by-the-Sea in front of the lens of two amazing photography artists. Liliya and Albert taught us how to pose and they orchestrated every angle perfectly. Our photos came out so dreamy, more than I ever imagined! Thank you, Albert and Liliya for the most dreamy experience. We love our photos and we can't wait to enjoy them for the years to come!

    Professional, Personable and just so Knowledgeable!!

    We hired Albert to photograph our special day at Caesar's on 10/26/19. He went above and BEYOND what we could have expected. He is professional, personable and just so knowledgeable! We paid our venue extra just to not use their standard photographer, but to contract Albert. He knew all the spots around the property and made us feel so comfortable throughout the whole day and night. We both are not that great with getting our photo taken, but Albert walked us through everything and always with a sincere smile and laugh. We also asked Albert to photograph our reception. When our coordinator left and we didn't know what to do- Albert immediately stepped in and took charge of the schedule, working with the DJ, the banquet staff- while still taking breathtaking photos!!!! We are forever grateful that we hired Albert and highly recommend you contact him for your wedding!! Honestly- he is the REAL DEAL! AMAZING!!
