Holley M. Sent on 04/26/2024Phenomenal
What can I say!? Not enough! Aleksey & Leah are top notch! Their professionalism to their sense of humor was exceptional. They truly kept our day in line. Every request we had plus some was done with extreme patience and honest advice. I truly felt I had a set of friends with me the entire day- from start to my bustle detaching and Leah helping me to fix it- when I say I could not have asked for a better team I truly mean that. My entire bridal party plus my parents could not have spoke more highly of both of them. Their speedy turnaround time For a sneak peek of over 70 photos 2 days after was mind blowing, with the photos being PHENOMENAL and everything we could have envisioned - and that was only the sneak peak. I can’t emphasize how much I highly recommend this dynamic duo! I truly promise you will be so happy with this choice.AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Thank you Holley for writing this great review and for being such a great Couple to work with! Leah and I are so happy that your special day turned out just as you'd hoped and that you invited us to share it with you. We wish you both all the best for the future! -

Aleksey and Leah were everything and more with what we wanted out of our photographers and videographers. They were professional, accommodating, fun to work with, and made us feel comfortable when we had never done a photoshoot before. We scheduled our engagement session with them along with the 12 hour package that they offer for our wedding. They worked with us on our timeline, expectations, and vision to ensure that we got all that we wanted out of the day. I would recommend AlekseyK Photography to everyone!AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Kaitlyn, Thank You so much for writing this great review! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Patrick. Your positive attitude with all the crazy weather this past year was amazing. Thank you again for choosing to work with us and we hope to work together again in the future! -

Planning a wedding is not easy. All the pieces need to fit together, and only then do you begin to feel as though you can concentrate on what really matters. Aleksey and Leah not only know this and work within the confines of your event, but they collaborate with other vendors and those who perform the critical roles within your day to manage the flow so that you don’t have to.
From our first consultation to the final goodbye at the end of our day A&L treated our wedding with the utmost care, asking us important questions so that they could understand and capture our vision. They made us feel like we were the most important couple in the world, and that feeling comes through in our photos.
Throughout the event as A&L worked their magic we had the privilege of seeing a few previews of ones that they were particularly proud of and that told us two things; not only were we confident that our portfolio would be superb, but also that they genuinely care. Their passion for what they give you cannot be overstated.
We haven’t been able to stop looking over the sneak peek package but if they are in any way indicative of the rest we are beyond excited. As we wait to see our final drop, we couldn’t wait to write this review. We want everyone to know how important A&L are to us. We want A&L to know how important they are to us. We want everyone to choose them. We will remember the best day of our lives in the same way that we experienced it, because of Aleksey and Leah.
Thank you Aleksey and Leah,

Colin & Cassandra, THANK YOU so much for writing this great review and letting others know about our services! Leah and I do what we do b/c we want to help Couples have the very best day they can possibly have. The success of a day is directly related to how well Couples can adapt and overcome the inevitable obstacles. No wedding is perfect, but as long as the Couple is in love and simply enjoys each other's company, then that's all we need. Having wonderful people, like you, in love, is the story we want to convey in our photographs. I'm so happy we were able to do this for you and so thankful you invited us along for the ride. We wish you all the best for the future and hope to work together again! -

Aleksey and Leah photographed two of my husband’s cousins’ weddings—we fell in love with their artistry and knew that we wanted them to photograph our wedding from the start. Before the wedding, Aleksey was super communicative with us and even carved out multiple meetings to go over the wedding timeline and talk through who would be involved in our wedding. During our wedding, Aleksey and Leah ensured we were on schedule so that we did not have to stress about time. Most importantly, their demeanors put us at ease throughout what can be a stressful planning process. Aleksey and Leah are masters at their craft, and I recommend them to any couple looking to capture all of the beauty of their wedding day!AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Nadia, Thank You for writing this great review! You and Forest we an absolute pleasure to work with and you are surrounded by such an amazing group of family and friends. We're so happy that your day turned out just as you hoped it would and very much look forward to working together again in the future! -

Aleksey and his wife, Leah, were phenomenal, and way surpassed our expectations for both our wedding and engagement pictures. Their level of skill shows true mastery and expertise at what they do. They both knew exactly the right angles for the best shots, keeping everyone on schedule, and having fun doing so! Aleksey is especially funny with his jokes to keep you laughing and feeling at ease. It was honestly such a wonderful experience from start to finish. And also, I have to Ofcourse mention all of the effort Aleksey put into BEFORE the events also- the hour long video chats with my husband and I, and the timeline that he put together and also re-edited a couple times too when a few of our plans changed- all of these little details did not go unnoticed by us. I would highly HIGHLY recommend using AlekseyKPhotography- he runs such a professional and class business, and we are SO happy we went with them!!!! We are actually going to miss him, not seeing him anymore. But I’m sure if we ever need professional pictures down the road, he will be the first person we call!!AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Christina, THANK YOU so much for writing this great review! It was an absolute pleasure meeting and working with you both, and we're so happy we were able to capture your special day. I very much look forward to working together again in the future! -

Best Photographer in Buffalo!!
If there is one advice I got before our wedding, it was to spend on a good photographer. I am normally the person who usually goes for the lowest quote, or really checks reviews prior to buying any goods or services. Aleksey's portfolio was stellar, but I wasn't quite sure how he would work out for us. Aleksey was great during all our video calls pre-wedding. He was even better on the wedding day. If it wasn't for his wife and him, we would not have such a well organized wedding shoot. Our photos came out phenomenal! We've received compliments that we had an amazing photographer, and we definitely did! Our wedding was at the Buffalo History Museum, and they were like photo ninjas. My wife and I had no idea they were around us, and many were surprised too, but they were suddenly there to capture the best moments. Aleksey and Leah are great at what they do, and this is very important on your Wedding Day. In fact, we (and family) would consider his work the best in Buffalo, so we highly recommend choosing them!AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Mark, thank you so much for writing this great review! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Sheila, and getting to know your awesome group of family and friends. I very much hope we have a chance to work together again in the future and we wish you all the best for what's yet to come! -

10 out of 10 quality!
If I could give Aleksey 10 stars, I would! Aleksey and Leah were amazing from our engagement photos to our wedding day, to our wedding video. We bought photos and video and we are beyond thrilled with all of them! We've received tons of compliments and were able to make beautiful photo books from them to commemorate our special day. We really wanted a photographer that could capture traditional portraits as well as candid shots, and they did a beautiful job of both. Their attention to detail was especially appreciated. I never had to worry about my hair or dress being out of place because I felt confident they would fix/adjust anything as needed. The video was beautifully edited and I'm so happy we decided to add that opion. It's also very nice that they offer photo and video, so you only have two people running around instead of 3 or 4. I feel that they are reasonably priced for the high quality of service provided. I highly recommend Aleksey!
AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Nicole, thank you so much for writing this great review! You and Eric were a pleasure to work with and we're so happy with how the day turned out. You surrounded yourself with an amazing group of family and friends, which always makes the day go smoothly. We wish you both all the happiness in the world! -

Aleksey and Leah truly bring it all- amazing artistic skill, exceptional planning and fantastic attention to detail. Their portfolio speaks for itself, so I want to emphasize how fantastic they were through the whole process. From our very first meeting Aleksey’s professionalism and expertise were apparent. We had two meetings prior to the wedding during which he gave advice and helped us develop our timeline. Of all of our vendors, Aleksey’s prep process was the most well planned and seamless. During our engagement session we knew that we chose the right photographer when he had us feeling comfortable in front of the camera and we left knowing our wedding would be in good hands. Throughout the wedding day Aleksey and Leah were flexible, calm, and kept us on schedule without making us feel rushed. They were able to flawlessly transition from quietly documenting moments like our first look to directing the whole family for portraits. We had multiple guests compliment their ability to help everyone pose to look their best, even in big group shots. They were excellent with all of our family members- grandparents, toddlers, and dogs included! To top it off, they went above and beyond their photographer duties- Leah was even ready to sew up my dress when my bustle broke. We are so impressed with the number and quality of photos we have gotten in our initial sneak peek just a few days after the wedding. They truly captured the emotions of the day. We could not be happier with our experience with Aleksey and Leah and highly recommend them!AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Jillian, THANK YOU so much for writing this great review! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Curtis and getting to know your family and friends. It's the people you surround yourself with that make your day so special, and you definitely have a great group! We wish you all the best for the future and hope to work together again. -

Justin G. Sent on 11/07/2021The full package
I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Aleksey. He knows what it takes to get a shot and has great leadership to direct. He is professional and assertive, and at the same time keeps it fun and light.
What impressed my wife and I the most is the final product. Many photographers had an impressive highlights portfolio, but when we requested to see a sample of full albums, the photos would fall short. Aleksey has the ability to deliver a consistent album. There are a number of fancy portfolio grade shots in our album.
We are just so grateful to have found Aleksey after looking at over 100 portfolios. On such an important day, this is not the area to skimp. If you are looking for a true professional, this is your companyAlekseyK Photography's reply:
Justin, thank you very much for writing this review! It was a pleasure working with you and Lauren and we wish you both all the best for years to come! -

Connor G. Sent on 06/12/2022Amazing experience!
We couldn't have been more pleased with Aleksey's work, not only with the results of the stunning photos, but with his professionalism, humor, quick thinking, and attention to detail. Aleksey worked with us to meet all of our photography wants, needs, and desires, while anticipating needs on the day that we didn't know we had. Aleksey worked well within our day-of time-frame and budget to make sure we got every photo we wanted. We guarantee that we will hire Aleksey again and recommend him to our friends and family for their events. You will be thankful you hired Aleksey for your wedding photos!AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Connor and Naomi, thank you so much for writing this wonderful review! Your wedding was an absolute pleasure to photograph and you, your family and friends a blessing to work with. I can't thank you enough for inviting me to spend this special day with you and I can't wait to work together again in the future! -

Beat decision we made for our wedding
I accidentally stumbled upon Aleksey's work one day and immediately knew he was the person I wanted for our wedding photographer. The style of his photography was exactly what we wanted, and he also catered to smaller weddings, like ours, that weren't all day events. Aleksey was a pleasure to work with from beginning till end. Professional, funny, great communication and very organized. So wonderful and easy to work with. He made great use of the time we had with him and made us feel comfortable during our session. I highly recommend him. You won't be disappointed.AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Thank you Abby for writing this great review! It was a pleasure working with you and Jeff and I hope very much that we're able to work together again in the future! -

Frank C. Sent on 03/18/2022You won’t regret hiring Aleksey!
You will not find a more dedicated artist team for your wedding. Aleksey and his wife Leah are excellent at photography, and they are truly devoted to giving you their best work. In addition, many of our wedding guests had fun interacting with them! Like - our guests, unprompted, told us they had a blast with Aleksey. He and his wife either blend into the surroundings and capture really touching moments without you even knowing they’re present, or you’re having fun taking pictures with them directly. There were quite a few times when I kinda wished they could have put the cameras down and had a drink with us to celebrate (but, as I said, they’re dedicated!)! Regarding the artistry of their work, our venue was the Admiral Room and we had some additional pictures taken at Buffalo City Hall. Aleksey and Leah are experts at taking advantage of amazing settings like these, or even capturing the big emotions of the day in a small hotel room you’re getting ready in. We were really not prepared for how cool and fun their initial shots were - which they shared just a couple days after the wedding, which was an awesome surprise! If you book Aleksey and Leah, we’re really excited for you (and a little jealous)!AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Frank and Phil.. WOW! Thank you so much for this wonderful review! Aside from being an amazing couple to work with, your kindness and heartfelt thoughts for us these last few weeks have been most appreciated. I can't thank you enough for inviting us to share in your special day and truly hope we're able to work together again in the future! -

Artistic, Professional, Flexible - The Whole Package
Extremely professional on both our engagement photo shoot, our wedding day, and on all of our zoom meetings in between. Aleksey and his wife Leah made our experience fun and exciting every time we worked with them, and the photos came out fantastic! Photos are extremely artistic, and Aleksey plays with the light of the room very well! Aleksey was very receptive to any requests we had regarding our photos and had no problem adapting to them. After our special day, receiving the photos through Aleksey's online gallery was a super simple and easy process!AlekseyK Photography's reply:
Rebecca, thank you so much for writing this great review! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Dave and we could not have asked for a better group of people to spend the day with. You were such troopers to brave the cold! Thank you again for inviting us to be a part of your special day! -
