best photographers ever!

Inbal wasn't available on our wedding day, so we had her associate Jerry Ng as our photographer and Guy as the second photographer. We first met Jerry in person when he came to our home to do our engagement shoot and we had so much fun with him! My husband and I aren't the best at posing for photos but he captured us in a way that made us look like models!

Inbal was very helpful and communicative in the weeks leading up to the wedding and she did an amazing job editing our photos. Jerry and his team went above and beyond on our wedding day and helped make a chaotic day go much more smoothly.

We wanted pictures that captured the day without altering the colors or looking too posed, and that's exactly what we got. I would absolutely recommend Inbal, Jerry, and Guy to anyone.

Thank You Inbal!

When I came across Inbal’s photography, I knew right away that I would love for her to capture my wedding day. Her photography is one of a kind, breathtaking, artistic, authentic and exactly what I was looking for on my wedding day. She was proactive, attentive to details and an absolute pleasure to spend the day with. She is extremely talented in capturing candid moments that you will want to remember for years to come. Our wedding photos and wedding album are absolutely stunning and are of high quality. I can’t recommend Inbal enough and I can’t wait to have another celebration for her to capture!

Best Regards,
Shirin

Felt like a long-time friend

First of all, I would 1,000% recommend working with Inbal to anyone who is lucky enough to require her services. Inbal is a joy to work with. She kept it real, and set boundaries when she needed to, but never in an unfriendly or unprofessional way. For a bride who is overwhelmed with opinions and choices, it was a relief to just be able to open up to her and know that your preferences would be respected. She had my back and left no room for our guests to get in the way of capturing a cherished moment. I also often feel uncomfortable in front of a camera, but she made me feel like I had a long-time friend in my corner. The whole experience felt natural and comfortable...and you can see it in the photos! Every photo felt real, joyful, and seemed bursting with emotion.

Inbal is amazing!

From the initial moments of contact she was so personable, easy to talk to and accommodating. Inbal always made herself available for conversations and made incredible recommendations for us to make our pictures even more unique and special. It happened to rain (torrential down pour) at the wedding and Inbal was the first one to say “let’s get a rain shot”. She was also able to get candid shots for those who matter most to us. Overall incredible experience! 10/10 recommend to ANYONE but especially a stressed out bride. You made me feel so at ease. Inbal, couldn’t ask for better photos! You are amazing!

Stop looking for a photographer - you found Inbal!

Look no further, the photographer you need is Inbal. There's no way to properly express in words what she will bring to your wedding experience as a whole, but it's the best decision we made for our wedding. She will be a friend, a guide, and most importantly, you'll have the most amazing photos. If you're like us, we wanted unique but timeless photos that captured our beautiful and diverse group of friends. Inbal takes stunning photos that capture the small moments filled with emotion that you aren't able to see on your big day. Our guests regularly look back at our photos just because they want to be reminded of how special it was. So stop your search, go with Inbal. Also, she does a great job of photographing people of all skin tones. As a black couple, this was something we looked for - Inbal more than delivered.

The best wedding photographer there is

Inbal is truly incredible — we cannot recommend her highly enough! Her photos were brilliant, and we absolutely loved working with her.

We had many DIY elements, so it was essential for us to have a photographer who could capture the love we put into our wedding. We looked and looked, but everyone whose work we liked seemed way out of our price range. When we discovered Inbal, we were floored by her distinctive approach, and we knew immediately our search was over. Over the next two years (thanks, Covid), she became not only our photographer, but also our creative collaborator as we planned the event.

When it came to the wedding itself, Inbal (and her fantastic collaborator, Jerry Ng, whom we also hired for a very reasonable fee) was perfect. She was on top of every detail necessary to produce beautiful photographs. She even scouted out a local garden before the event and convinced the people running it to hold it open past hours so we could take portraits! Somehow, Inbal and Jerry knew exactly where to be to capture incredible shots without ever being in the way.

The photographs themselves were just what we’d hoped for: expressive, beautiful, and creative. Inbal sent them to us way ahead of schedule, along with a lovely preview slideshow. It’s hard to imagine any photographer—even one charging five times Inbal’s rates—capturing a wedding as perfectly.

Hire her!!! We know we will, whenever we have another big event.

Incredible wedding photos and fun to work with!

Inbal was wonderful to work with over 3+ years of planning and postponement. She stuck with us over 4 different wedding dates until we finally got to tie the knot in October 2022. She was responsive, flexible, honest, direct, and funny! She took incredible photos despite less than ideal weather conditions, unruly family (including toddler twins), and a very dark venue. We received over 800 photos within 2 weeks of the event and we are just in love with them! Highly, highly recommend!

The Best Photographer in all of Austin OR New York

For what it's worth, I have attended and seen photos from a ton of weddings in both Austin and NYC, so I feel I the authority to support the title of my review :-)

My husband and I cannot recommend Inbal enough! When picking a photographer for our wedding, it was not only important that we were in love with their work/style, but that we found a person that we felt comfortable entrusting with one of the most important days of our lives. Inbal met our standards from both immediately.

First, the work: We wanted someone who would capture genuine moments without interrupting the natural flow of the day -- Inbal did that beautifully. She is a lighting expert and knows how to get the best looking shot with the least amount of intrusion. She captured incredible moments of emotion and action and made everyone look AMAZING. Additionally, she and her term were flexible with us and the needs our guest; they worked hard to ensure that we got all of the shots that mattered most to us and that each shot met her high standards of quality. I have looked at our gallery every day since it arrived and every time, I notice something new and wonderful that Inbal and her team captured. HIRE HER.

Now the person: Inbal is not only a true professional, but for me, was a calming presence on the day. We had expressed to her some of our anxieties around photos/being photographed and she made sure that both my husband and I were comfortable the whole day. She checked in with me several times to make sure I was doing okay and was very understanding when I needed to take a break part of the way through portraits. Like I said, you need to be able to trust your photographer on the day of and from our first meeting with Inbal, it was clear that we could trust her.

Again, I cannot stress enough how much of a positive impact Inbal had on our wedding, both the during the day and in the memories that are now captured forever by her skilled eye. Hire her for your event; it will be the best decision you make.

Magnificent photos!

Inbal Sivan is a true gem! In candids and portraits, Inbal captured every detail of our daughter’s wedding day—every smile, smirk, kiss and tear— in the most beautiful way possible. Her style is unique and her images are authentic and full of personality. We are so grateful that we chose her to record the happiest day of our families’ lives.

Inbal Rocks

We used Inbal for our wedding in NY and couldn't have been happier. Our photos came out incredible, she is very talented. She helped us when we needed help, but also made us feel comfortable the entire time. Look no further, you cannot go wrong with Inbal and your photos will come out amazing!

The best decision of my wedding - book her!

Our wedding photos are STUNNING, all thanks to the incredible work of Inbal! She is so talented. When planning our wedding, choosing a photographer was one of the most important decisions to me, and Inbal knocked my very high expectations out of the park. Each of her photos is like a work of art. She was also an absolute joy to work with through each step of the process. We postponed our traditional wedding due to COVID, so Inbal shot our microwedding with about 20 people. Not only did she capture great photos of each of our guests, but she also helped me plan out the timing of the wedding to optimize time with our friends and family and the best lighting for photos. She was always very responsive to any questions I had during the planning process, easy and accessible to communicate with, and very professional. Inbal is also hilarious and we had the best time during our engagement and portrait sessions with her. We are so thankful we booked Inbal and the amazing photographs we have to remember our special day!

She is amazing!

Inbal photographed my wedding, and I can't say enough about how great she was. We had a LOT of vendors, and she was by far the most responsive and down to earth. Her guidance around timing various photos to coincide with the right lighting before sunset became the basis of our wedding schedule. We had hired a separate videographer, and Inbal was so spot-on about shooting locations and lighting that he ended up following her lead throughout the day.

The quality of her photos was phenomenal. She captured moments with our families and friends that passed in milliseconds but captured the energy of the day. She also turned around a highlight reel of the best photos really quickly after the wedding - I hadn't even realized that was part of our contract, but it's become the thing that me and my husband (and my mother) look at more than any of the other mementos from the wedding. I couldn't have imagined a better experience with a photographer, and would HIGHLY recommend her.

Congratulations, you found the world's best wedding photographer!

I am the first to admit that I was a bit of a crazy bride during the planning process. I did an insane amount of research and learned more than I will ever need to know about the world of wedding photography! I had considered more photographers than I care to admit and had conversations with half a dozen before I stumbled upon Inbal. I literally gasped when I opened up her website and was so excited to learn that she was available for our date!

Inbal is a true gem in this industry and over-delivered for us in every way. During our engagement shoot, I made a few suggestions about the scene I wanted - which she happily accommodated - but honestly the photos that she set the scene for came out SO MUCH BETTER, and I knew after that just to fully trust Inbal's eye.

Her photos speak for themselves, but I'll share how we felt about ours. The most important thing for me was to get a variety of portraits in a rustic setting, and we ended up with so many that continue to take our breath away a year later. During the wedding, she was everywhere she needed to be, including sitting on the lap of my mother-in-law in order to get the perfect shot during the speeches (my mother-in-law loved Inbal and thought this was hilarious!) Basically nothing will stop Inbal from getting the perfect shot. She broke into the middle of our hora and was all over the dance floor while simultaneously managing not to be intrusive, and as a result we have so many awesome in-motion photos of us having the time of our lives. My favorite photos ended up being the candids- she captured an authentic emotional moment between the us and each of our respective parents and siblings (who were our bridal party) from the first photos of getting ready to the final photos at the end of the night. These are the priceless photos that we and future generations of our family will treasure forever. We wouldn't have these moments to reflect on and remember without Inbal's instinct as a photographer, and I'm so grateful to her!

We had the unfortunate experience of losing our venue two months before our May 2019 wedding, and Inbal was so supportive and flexible during this stressful time. She had never been to the new venue and arrived much earlier than expected on our wedding day with her assistant to get the lay of the land. We also opted for a second photographer and the person she chose was top-knotch.

The bottom line with Inbal is that she has a natural gift for capturing the real authentic moments of a wedding - yes, the posed portraits are absolutely stunning and we're obsessed with them, but the raw joy and love of our day was captured in a way that can only be described as masterful. Inbal has an immense depth of experience, knowledge and passion for wedding photography, and it shows! If you love the photos you've seen so far, don't wait to reach out and see if she's available for your date!

Thank you, Inbal!!!

Wonderful!

You'll no doubt be in the best hands with Inbal! We hired her for our wedding in November of 2019, and we would do it all over again in a heartbeat. Not only is she an insanely talented photographer, but she's very organized and an excellent communicator. In my opinion, what makes Inbal and her work so special, is her innate ability to TRULY capture ALL the emotions of the day- emotions in the small moments and emotions in the big ones. And when we look at her beautiful work from our wedding, I can see and feel the day all over again! My husband and I - and our families too - are so thankful for Inbal and her talents :-).

Simply, perfect

Inbal was the photographer for our NY wedding in November 2019 and she was absolutely amazing. I spoke with a few different photographers when trying to find the right person and our initial conversation made choosing her one of the easiest decisions of the wedding process. During our chat, she already had a timeline of the day outlined and did not try to up sell us on more hours than were needed. It was very clear to me that having her at the wedding would alleviate any stress or pressure on me to make sure things went according to plan. And then her work product - IT IS PERFECT. We did an engagement shoot ahead of time and the pictures are stunning, so I was extra excited following the wedding when I got the pictures from that day. She captured every happy moment, and each photo is better than the next. I'm still working through choosing ones I want to put in an album, but it's impossible to whittle it down because I truly love so many. Definitely a good problem to have! If you want beautiful, candid and natural feeling photos, she's the person for you. I loved spending time with Inbal leading up to the wedding and genuinely hope our paths cross in the future. She is an amazing photographer, but even more so an amazing, lovely, and fun person.

Pray she's available, book her, and move on to your other wedding planning!!

Simply put, if you're planning a wedding and want to make the right decision on a photographer, hire Inbal! Planning our wedding took so much work, my husband and I read so many reviews and made so many decisions in the process, that looking back, I wish somebody had just told me from the beginning, "Don't worry about your photographer, just book Inbal and don't look back, you'll be so happy you did!" They would've been 1,000% right and we could've saved ourselves some time and effort!

From the first phone call we had with Inbal, we knew we were interacting with a total professional. My husband and I had already been planning our wedding for months - we had bought some planning books and were going the DIY route - but in one conversation with Inbal we realized we had just about... oh, 100 blind spots. Inbal was incredibly helpful from day 1, there were so many times when Inbal would ask us how we were planning to execute an aspect of our ceremony where my husband and I would kind of look at each other and shrug. Without missing a beat, Inbal would chime in with, "Well traditionally, couples do it like X, but I've seen some couple do it like Y, or Z." By the end of the phone call we had an entire first draft outline of what our wedding date would look like, as well as questions my husband and I had to answer for ourselves that we had never considered. This conversation was beyond helpful and was the catalyst for us deciding we needed to hire a day-of coordinator.

Simply put, Inbal's photos are beautiful. I was worried about finding the right photographer because, to be honest, I've always felt I look awkward in photos, especially more formal ones. I know a lot of people say this about themselves, but my tendency for the awkward smile has been lovingly confirmed by close friends of mine and was a legitimate concern I had about our wedding pictures. I love the way our wedding photos (and frankly, our engagement photos) came out. Inbal was able to capture all the energy and happiness that we felt that day. My husband and I still have ear-to-ear smiles as we scroll back through our wedding photos. We'll be ordering prints with Inbal soon.

Amazing photos and incredible to work with!

Inbal is incredible! We booked her for our November 2019 wedding in Brooklyn and we were so happy she was available. She was incredibly responsive, professional, and wonderful to work with throughout the process. She helped us make a schedule for photos throughout our wedding day (and even helped us fit in a beautiful outdoor photoshoot before the ceremony at a park nearby...despite the cold weather we got some gorgeous outdoor shots and she did a fantastic job). During the ceremony she captured so many wonderful moments with our family and friends. We recently got our photos and we will treasure them for many years to come. We cannot recommend Inbal highly enough!

Best decision we made!

Inbal is fantastic. She was my top choice of photographer and we were so lucky that she had availability the day of our wedding. My sister had wanted to book Inbal for her wedding the prior year, but Inbal was already committed to another wedding that weekend. My sister often says that missing out on Inbal was her biggest wedding regret! Inbal flew in to do our engagement photos and the wedding and the photos were incredible! She took the time to get to know us and understand what we wanted out of the photography. She did an incredible job capturing the emotions of the day. She was able to accommodate a really big request to get family portraits of every possible combination of a large extended family. This is outside of the scope of most weddings and had to be efficiently coordinated across large number of people and it was executed flawlessly. My guests raved about how much fun she was but she also was able to blend in while photographing when needed and avoid drawing attention. As someone without a wedding planner who has never planned an event, she provided constant reassurance and guidance throughout the process. She even broke out some stand up comedy to help us feel less awkward in front of the camera. Inbal is incredibly talented and professional and we are so happy we chose her to photograph our wedding!

Look no further

I'm telling you, Inbal is everything you want in a photographer and more. Aside from the fact that she is INCREDIBLY talented, patient, and thoughtful, she also walks you through everything you need to know on your big day re: timing and when everything should happen. She is reliable, always there if you have questions, and puts her full heart into every job she does. If you want to look back at your wedding photos and feel the life, joy, and excitement of the day instead of having stiff, dime-a-dozen shots, go with Inbal because she manages to capture the actual LIFE of the event. I can't wait to look at these photos for the rest of forever :)

Stunning photos, creative, and fun to work with!

Inbal took photos for my dear friends’ wedding and I watched her work her magic. She has a way with people that is so lovely and really makes them feel at ease (sometimes it’s so hard to figure out what to do with your face or your hand in a photo!!). One of the celebrants was hesitant to go out and take photos in the rain- and she and the other celebrant convinced them to go for it- and they turned out to be the most sparkly and amazing photos. I highly recommend her!!

Inbal was the best part of my wedding!

Inbal was--hands down--one of my favorite people to be around during my wedding AND she was my best vendor, by far and away. I have been recommending her to any person who mentions photos, and since our wedding, I have asked her to provide more services (family portraits). Here is why she is the best decision you’ll make for your wedding or any other photography need, ever:
1. Her photographs are brilliant—I have audible reactions to them. They are beautiful and evoke real emotion and laughter. In my search for a photographer, I kept thinking I was doing something wrong or I didn’t understand photography because nothing moved me; then I went to Inbal’s site and I FELT something. I finally understood THAT is what makes her photographs amazing—they make you feel things, react, respond, engage.
2. She has the perfect personality for being an effective wedding photographer: calm, no-nonsense, gives direction without being bossy, is efficient, respects your preferences and supports bringing them to fruition, does not take herself too seriously, is funny, is authentic.
3. Inbal helped me identify many other vendors for my wedding. I trusted her experience and judgement so much, she referred me to the most important other vendors for my wedding. Through her I got my DJ (who was excellent), my wedding coordinator, and my videographer.
4. She advised me on my wedding. Inbal was SUPER responsive and generous with sharing her wisdom on wedding planning. I would consult her on how to prioritize elements of the wedding, how to design my day, and feedback on my hair & makeup. All of her feedback was clutch and so helpful.
I would use more adjectives, examples and CAPS if I could recommend her more strongly. But I think you get the point. YOU’LL BE LUCKY TO HIRE HER! She is the best, period.

Professional Wedding Ninja!

Inbal is an extremely talented photographer and great to work with. She is a professional but doesn't make you feel like it's the most serious day of your life. (Which the stressed out bride appreciated!) We hired her for our New York wedding in April, as well as for Fall engagement pictures in Central Park, and could not have been happier. She knows how to capture a moment! And even staged photos never felt forced or corny, which was a big worry of ours. She managed to stealthy swoop in and capture so many great, intimate moments without us even noticing. (If she want such a great photographer, she could probably be a successful pickpocket) Our families are blown away by our wedding album and literally bring her pictures to friends houses to show off. Hire her, you will not regret it!

A dream come true

Look no further and hire Inbal, i promise you will thank me later. Her talent and creative mind separates her from every other wedding photographer out there. She captures natural, candid moments that you wouldn’t believe. She is beyond a pleasure to work with and made myself and my now husband feel comfortable and clam and we both don’t love taking pictures. She rallies your troops for you and keeps to schedule. She is an absolute pleasure, professional, kind, and simple just AMAZING!! You must hire her!!

Incredible, lovely, perfect

Inbal is INCREDIBLE. She is the most talented photographer I have ever met, and she captured our day more perfectly than we could have ever imagined. My fiancé and I had the best day of our lives, but after the day was over we were longing to relive it. Inbal helped us relive our small and big moments with more clarity than what we had on that day. She captured moments we don't even remember, and moments that we do. She does absolutely stunning work.

I looked at a lot of photographer's websites, but Inbal's photos captured a joy and spontaneity that I wanted to be reflected in my own shots. She was very organized, but also easy going, and she was able to take incredible pictures outdoors on a bright, hot day and indoors in a dimly lit setting. She had a certain confidence that assured me that she would be able to get fantastic photos, and she succeeded! I recommend her 100%!

Inbal is seriously AMAZING!!!! Right from the beginning, we knew we wanted her to photograph our wedding. She was personable, sweet, so relaxed, so accommodating to our needs, and very professional. We did not have any anxiety about the photography day of. She was everywhere, capturing every emotion unobtrusively. She let us pose how we wanted and welcomed our natural personalities. We just received our photos and cannot begin to express how beautiful and amazing each photo is. She captured our day and night in the most talented and artistic way. She caught every glance and every sweet moment and framed the photos beautifully. Hire her - she is worth every penny!!!!

If you want a professional with a sense of humor and creativity, Inbal will literally capture the love in the air at your wedding. The photos of our daughter's wedding are so beautiful - they convey every emotion experienced by all present and capture the essence of the happy couple's relationship and personalities.

Inbal is an unbelievably talented photographer, but you can look at her work and see that for yourself. What you won't see until you meet her (and I highly recommend you meet her) is her fantastic personality and point-of-view. She is kind, funny, and PROFESSIONAL. She arrived early at my mother's house, immediately started clicking away, and somehow captured every smile, tear, glance, emotion in each and every frame. Inbal is organized, friendly, and will capture your wedding day in better detail than you could possibly remember on your own. We (and by we, I mean our entire families) are still in awe with the quality and content of the photos from our wedding day.

I don't even know where to begin! Inbal is AMAZING!!! She was so funny and warm which is just what every bride and groom needs on their big day when there can often be enough nerves and stress to go around! My husband really wanted someone who would take relaxed and not posed bridal shots which was just what Inbal delivered. We could not believe how quietly and easier she and the photographers she brought slipped in to the day and many guests commented that they didn't even realize they were there! I could go on and on about how thankful I am for Inbal and all her work. There is no one better!

I know, I know, ranking a service 5/5 seems absurd and too good to be true, but we really were extremely thrilled with Inbal. She was fantastic to work with and produced amazing, creative, and curated shots. She was open to scheduling a venue walk-through ahead of our wedding to gain a sense of the hotel and surrounding areas for scouting unique shots. On the wedding day, she arrived early to my bridal suite to capture the small moments early in the day with my mother, sister and close friends. As the day continued, she kept us on schedule, was direct/focused, and was not afraid to ask someone to step aside if they were blocking our shot. If there was a particular shot we loved, or that was providing amazing lighting, she spent additional time to capture the moment as well as the details. As many bride and grooms-to-be know, there are a million+ things to coordinate and remember the day of the wedding. Working with Inbal was the opposite- she added ease to the day. The resulting photos are absolutely stunning!

Inbal was amazing to work with, and one of my favorite vendors. She is super fun while also super professional, and totally on top of everything - we had complete confidence in her the day of our wedding. Neither my husband nor I are that into being photographed, but Inbal made the whole session fun and easy. But most importantly, she is an incredibly talented photographer. Our pictures were stunning - she knew just how to pose us (actually it was more like she she knew how to get us to laugh and look in the right direction, nothing was contrived or cheesy or over-posed) and she somehow was able to capture the most beautiful/funny/emotional candid moments at our wedding with so many of our guests. We couldn't believe how many great pictures she captured on the dance floor and during the ceremony - we had a lively crowd and Inbal caught it all in beautifully framed photographs. And she took some beautiful, creative shots, even lying down in the middle of an NYC street to get the right angle. We were also lucky enough to get an incredible sunset which Inbal took full advantage of - the photos look like they are from a set, they were that good. And finally, Inbal is efficient- we received all of our photos in less than a month. Austin, you're getting one of the best wedding photographers in NYC, I cannot recommend her enough.

Inbal is the best photographer in NYC! I cant say enough how much we love all of our wedding photos! Inbal was so great and professional from start to finish; she even calmed me down when I was about to turn into a bridezilla on wedding day ( when the flowers(including bouquet) did not show up on time on wedding site lol). Everyone says we have the best wedding photos. Thank you Inbal for giving us amazing wedding photos that we will cherish forever!

I would give her 100 stars if I could. 5 years later and I still have people talking abut how amazing our wedding photos are. We also had her do a family shoot after our daughter was born because we loved her photos so much. Her talent is absolutely unmatched. She's also super cool, fun, and professional, which is really important for someone you are going to be with for an extended period of time on your wedding day.

I couldn't say more good things about Inbal, so long story short:

She works great with you and your guests and make everyone at ease.
She would do anything to take good photos, and deliver your photos quick.
Her photos have a great sense of humor, so does her person.

My husband and I are really satisfied with the photos, and we received countless complements from friends and families. If you like her style, book her and you won't regret!

I do not have the words to explain how much I love Inbal and her work. Her wit and playfulness were a perfect fit for us. She is kind, creative, and really giving of her time and talents. She was pretty heavily pregnant during our engagement photos at Coney Island and still hunkered down in the sand to get the right angles and turned the photos around in record time!

Our Bronx Zoo wedding photos still blow me away. She and the second photographer hired through her were excellent, capturing a lot of what would have been otherwise hidden moments we would never see as the bride and groom. There are the glamour shots, of course, but a lot of great action shots of dancing and people just being happy. It's four months after our wedding, and people are STILL talking about how impressed they were with her work.

Researched dozens of photographers. The personality and casual liveliness of Inbal's photography stood out. She was a pleasure to work with on four different wedding-related occasions. Can fall into background or take charge very smoothly. Highly recommend!

After spending a tremendous amount of time researching photographers online, I decided to meet with Inbal because A) her photographs are beautiful and B) she is up front about her wedding package costs and puts all the info on her website. After having to go back and forth with multiple photographers just to find out how much they would charge, I had kind of had it and was SO happy to finally find a person who just laid out all the info I wanted up front. Then we met with Inbal and were sold.

She was SO wonderful to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. She was always quick to respond to emails, incredibly organized and just a lot of fun to talk with during our planning meetings. She listened to what we said we wanted from our photographs and kept everything moving smoothly. She captured beautiful moments between my husband and I, our families and friends. And she managed to wrangle together a bridal party of 16 people who were all lightly inebriated to get some really great bridal party shots. NOT an easy feat!

I'd HIGHLY recommend Inbal. Our pictures are incredible and the entire working relationship with her was wonderful and stress-free, which is key when planning a wedding!

Finding a wedding photographer was on the very short list of vendors/services that was extremely important to me -- photography is a personal interest of mine, so I was very intent on finding someone with an ideal mix of technical skill, artistic ability and organized/honest/straightforward on the business side of things. Inbal more than exceeded expectations on all fronts. From the initial conversations, she was extremely organized and helpful in terms of coming up with a timeline, setting expectations, getting our input and understanding our preferences. She was always extremely responsive to emails and happy to meet in person (which we did twice in the time leading up to the wedding). On the day of the wedding, she and her 2nd shooter showed up early and got right to work, managing the schedule perfectly without making us feel rushed or regimented in any way. I researched A LOT of photographers, and Inbal's abilities clearly stood out from others in her price range. Our venue was very tricky to shoot in -- quite dark, with limited room for her to maneuver in the actual ceremony area -- but you would have no idea from the pictures she was able to shoot. In addition to the technical aspects, I was drawn to the spirit of her pictures -- her choice of subjects, composition, an ability to convey a real sense of humor and emotion, which for me personally was such a welcome departure from a lot of the "typical" wedding pictures you'll see. I highly recommend Inbal!

***HIGHLY RECOMMEND***
Inbal did an amazing job on our wedding. She and her assistant were punctual, professional, and determined to get the best pictures possible at our ceremony and reception, and they certainly did. The only vendor we were nervous about picking was our photographer, because lets face it, the pictures are your memories as the years go by, but Inbal put our mind at ease at our first meeting. She provided great insight into how our wedding day would play out and helped us capture amazing memories with beautiful photos. I can't say enough. We are so happy that she was our photographer. Worth every penny. :)

I think finding a photographer was the hardest task in our wedding planning. Pictures of our wedding were so important to us that we searched for several months trying to find the perfect photographer. There are so many wedding photographers out there who take amazing photos, and that made it so difficult to choose one. In the end, we chose Inbal out of the many photographers we talked to. We felt that her personality really shined above the rest. She is just full of amazing positive energy that is difficult to put into words. When we met with Inbal, we were full of questions, and she wasn’t afraid to give us her opinion. We had heard so many times, “it’s your wedding, so you can do whatever you want,” but we had no idea what we wanted to do. She had a vision for our day, that began right when she met us, and she carried it through perfectly. It’s so important to have a photographer, or any vendor, that you can relate to, trust, and clearly communicate with, and Inbal was that and more.

On the day of the wedding, she showed up early and started shooting right away. She got super creative with the portraits, captured all the special moments in our ceremony, and her photojournalistic style covered the reception perfectly. She worked flawlessly with our videographers, who she just met that day. She didn’t let us fall behind schedule during the wedding portraits in the morning, and came up with countless ideas on the spot in a venue she wasn’t familiar with.

The pictures came out beautiful, and we love them! The turnaround time was also very quick - our wedding was in June, and we had our photos by August. We chose the perfect photographer. We couldn’t be happier. Thank you, Inbal!

Inbal was our favorite vendor for our wedding (and that's saying a lot!). She was organized, punctual, high energy, straightforward, had a great sense of humor, was full of ideas for photos, and managed to put us and our families at ease throughout the day while making sure all of the photos we needed were taken. We just got our photos back yesterday and they are amazing - we are so happy with them. We have gotten rave reviews of the photos from both of our families as well. Inbal captured the big moments and little moments throughout the day and every photo is crisp, the lighting is great, and the emotions are real.

Inbal had a great sense of humor and seemed to "get us" as a couple. The day of the wedding, Inbal helped us wrangle our families into photos with humor and efficiency. Even though Inbal was six months pregnant, she was sprinting around and even lying on her stomach to get the perfect shot! We appreciated her direction and suggestions on places to go near the venue for photos and just had fun chatting with her while we were walking around. Once the wedding started, we didn't even notice Inbal was there for most of the night because she was so unobtrusive, but when we got the wedding photos back we realized she was everywhere at once, capturing all the key moments. Our guests also felt comfortable around her and didn't feel like there was a camera in their face during the event.

I have to say it again - the photos are amazing and our families and guests have said they are some of the best wedding photos they have seen. Also, we highly recommend her photo booth service - her assistant was great and the photos are awesome. The guests really loved it. We highly highly recommend Inbal!

Inbal was absolutely amazing to work with! She shot our wedding last May and I am sorry that it took so long to get this review in. We told her at the time we would shower her with praise, which is well-deserved and overdue. She was fantastic in every way -- very talented, easy to work with, great value, very kind spirit and a great sense of humor. Very professional, arrived early to the wedding to do first look photos & prep, ad made us feel at ease throughout the day even when posing us. My wife and I were really pleased with how our photos came out and we could not have picked a better photographer for our special day. There were so many great photos it was difficult to narrow them down to an album.

We get compliments on our photos all the time (most recently, a co-worker saw the photo I keep on my desk and said "that looks like something out of a magazine."). The website gallery and DVD she provided were setup in a way that was very easy to work with.

I'd describe her style is a mix of documentary and artistic, and she's got a great eye for composition & timing. We seriously cannot say enough good things about her. If her style fits what you are looking for in a photographer, book her, you will not regret it!

Inbal is a true artist and that shines through with her pictures; she has training as a fine art photographer. She has a level of training which few wedding photographers have. The training combined with her creative/artistic eye and quick thinking allow her to capture amazing images. She is the queen of lighting and can quickly find the way to capture her subjects exquisitely. It was very important for me not to have simple snapshots of my wedding and this was a key reason I wanted to work with Inbal.

What's also great - she comes up with ideas for posing, which is something me and my husband don't do much so we needed guidance. She also keeps calm despite the various pressures of the day and has a great sense of humor.

My wedding was planned relatively quickly and I was very fortunate that due to a schedule change with another wedding, Inbal was available for my date. She was very flexible in making her schedule work for us to still do an engagement shoot despite our compressed timing. Then of course she came early before our scheduled time for the wedding and scoped out special, hidden away spots for our wedding portraits. She captured the day perfectly. Many of my wedding guests said it looks like a magazine shoot. I am overjoyed and thrilled with the pictures. We continue to receive compliments on the work and know these pictures will allow us to remember our day well many years on.

She captured every single moment of our wedding day in over 600 photos. We cannot thank her enough for the beautiful photos she gave us. Look no further for a photographer...Inbal is the best!

My husband and I worked with Inbal for our wedding in June 2013, and could not have been happier. First of all, and this should come as no surprise if you have explored her website: her work is incredible. She is a gifted photographer with an amazing eye for light, and a talent for capturing special candid moments. It is a credit to the consistent awesomeness of her work that it has been nearly impossible for us to narrow down our (very large) gallery to a manageable set of photos for an album. Second, she was a delight to work with every step of the way. Inbal is one of those people who is hilarious, spontaneous, no-BS, and a blast to be around, while also prompt, organized, experienced, and totally professional. She took the time to get to know us, and carefully attended to our specific wishes and needs. Neither my husband nor I are typically fond of being in front of the camera, but Inbal helped us to get comfortable and have fun. In general, she instilled confidence in us from minute one, and delivered above and beyond our expectations. We also did an engagement shoot with her and had one of the most fun, relaxing evenings of our entire wedding planning process. On the day of the wedding, Inbal easily took command of our (at times distractible and disorganized) family - she is a powerhouse. We could not recommend her more highly!

I can't express how extremely delighted and happy I am with our wedding photos. Inbal was so cool to work with, right from the start -- very down-to-earth and funny (important in stressful moments!). She really does her homework to figure out the venue, the weather, the time of day and what's most important to you to have as memories after the wedding. She and her assistant Tatiana, also so lovely, made the best of some tough stuff on our reception day -- rainy weather, running way behind schedule for pretty much everything and dealing with a DIY event, which meant family members were constantly running around to do things instead of behaving for group photos. They took advantage of every second, and the results were better than I could have imagined (her turnaround time for delivering photos is much faster than with other weddings I've been part of). Inbal truly knows how to use light, both outside and in, to a serene, magical effect. She and Tatiana captured people's expressions in the candid photos and some truly photojournalistic moments of the ceremony, my nephews, guests playing games and dancing, the setting -- just breathtaking. These events go by so quickly and it's hard to keep the memories fresh; I'm so lucky (and relieved) to have these photos to preserve our wedding memories for us.

Inbal is fantastic! Her wedding photographs are gorgeous - she caught the spirit of our event as well as every detail. The images are fun, striking, almost cinematic, and everyone's personality seems to shine through. She got perfect lighting in every shot - quite a feat, given how dark our venue was. They are truly amazing works. This would have been enough - to have a gorgeous set of wedding photographs in the end. But Inbal was absolutely a pleasure to work with through the whole process. She was able to help us figure out a lot of details about the wedding as a whole: things like scheduling the day, and portrait-taking dynamics and strategies. A friend of mine actually noted that I was calmer and less nervous when Inbal was around, especially in the hours leading up to the wedding. We had a sudden torrential downpour when we were supposed to take all the portraits in an outdoor area, but Inbal improvised and moved the shoot indoors and the photos look great. I can't say enough good things about her and her work - it feels like a wonderful gift to have these photographs!

My wife and I looked at a lot of portfolios in wedding magazines and on-line, and once we found Inbal's website, we both agreed that we needn't look further. Her work speaks for itself—it is beautifully lit, FUN, and she is uncanny at capturing little moments that I think most photographers wouldn't even think to look for. Her work offers a playful documentary style, and she is a master at depicting light: both natural and manufactured, in black-and-white and color. If you are going to be shaking it on your big day, no one takes better dancing pictures. And if you have any kids present, Inbal will take the best photographs of them. Ever.
Simply put, Inbal is the best in the business.
I mean, just go look at her stuff and see for yourself.
You are definitely in good hands.

Inbal was a pleasure to work with. She takes her job seriously and is a total blast to be around. She's very good at giving advice and listening to the clients' desires and making them workable. On our wedding day she showed up an hour earlier and stayed an hour later than than we'd agreed - just to make sure she got everything we'd talked about. The photos turned out beautifully - I've been told they are the best wedding photos people have seen. She continued to be a resource after the wedding for prints.

I can't say enough positive things about her and would highly recommend her to anyone!

Inbal Sivan's work is stunning. She took the most beautiful photos of my wedding day, and everyone who has seen my photos has commented that "your photographer is amazing". While her photographs are artistically and technically flawless, at the same time, they bring back the awesomeness of the day. In addition to her beautiful work, she also ended up being a true comfort to me on the day of the wedding. The wedding starts well before you walk down that isle - and from the time she appeared on site to take photos, through the ceremony and beyond, she was a calm, patient, totally organized, anchor to my day. Not to mention, my mother, who hates cameras, posed for her, and happily. I'd work with her again any day, and hope I will.

It is truly impossible to express what an exceptional artist Inbal is and what an amazing honor it was to have her take our wedding pictures. We already knew that the pictures would be out of this world because we opted for the engagement pictures as well (also highly recommend having an engagement shoot with Inbal!). So we waited with bated breath for our wedding pictures to be ready and when we got them we couldn't believe that she actually exceeded our extremely high expectations. Inbal not only took unbelievable shots of all of our special moments, she managed to take stunning pictures of every one of our guests, every wedding detail, and all of the food. I don't know how she did it or how she kept track given that we had over 150 people. I have never seen wedding pictures that even compare to the treasure she gave us.

Inbal is such an amazing wedding photographer! Her photos are absolutely gorgeous and she is such an awesome person to have around on your wedding day. It can be such a stressful day and it really helped to have Inbal there to keep us calm and cool and laughing.
Throughout all of the planning Inbal was very responsive and very helpful planning out the flow of the day. My wedding was during the week of Hurricane Sandy and Inbal made me feel totally comfortable that she would be there no matter what and that was such a relief to us. I think her prices are a great value for the amazing photos and the a la carte options can really help if you need some flexibility to get her in your budget.
I can't say enough great things about Inbal, as an incredibly talented photographer and also as an awesome person to be around! Our photos are just stunning and we are so grateful!

Inbal came recommended to me by a co-worker. Her website was full of the types of images I envisioned for my big day: fun, creative and well-executed. When my husband and I met with her, we immediately hit it off. She truly connects with her clients and makes you feel like even though she has done hundreds of weddings, yours is just as special. On the big day, she was reassuring, letting me know that even though we were running a little late that we'd be fine. When it came time to wrangling all of the family, which can be tough with our families, she did it politely but in a way where she moved everyone along quickly. In terms of the photos, this writer is at a loss for words. They were beyond incredible, they were perfect. The only dilemma now, is selecting which ones for a book. Hell, I may have to splurge and just print all of them. Inbal is not only an insanely talented photographer, she is an amazing person and you will have complete comfort in knowing your photos will come out as you dreamed if you hire her.

For whatever reason starting this review is particularly difficult, why? Because i want everyone to realize just how amazing Inbal is! Inbal was recommended to me by a past bride at our reception venue and it was the best decision ever to work with her. As a bride naive to all the details i didn't even realize that there were "types" of wedding photographers (photo journalism, etc), all I knew is I wanted my wedding pictures to look like whats posted on her blog/website and they do!!

Inbal is a kind but down to business type of gal, which as a professional is a personality i aspire to have. My fiancé and his family hate photos so i needed someone strong to call the shots, and again Inbal delivered and handled them like a pro! From the beginning Inbal was there to help, we discussed sun set timing to lists of must have portraits. Inbal did not miss a beat. Day of it was like seeing an old friend, even though I only met her once before. Her genuine spirit is comforting which is totally needed when a million eyes are starring at you. During the ceremony and particularly the reception Inbal did what was needed to get the shot. She gave us the most beautiful wedding portraits that satisfied the "formal" bride in me but also left us with tons of fun and festive candids from the night. The spirit of our wedding was perfectly captured from beginning to end, I couldn't recommend Inbal more!

I am so belated in writing this review but I finally just pulled together my wedding album and I'm incredibly grateful for the amazingly great shots Inbal captured. This is the photographer you should go for if you want someone that is a true artist (but not artsy fartsy.. no strange angles, blurry stuff for the hell of it) and captures shots like a photojournalist would. My photos look great; they are unique, creative, and flawlessly framed. I chose Inbal because I thought her work was fantastic and I liked that she offered a package that just included her services on the wedding day and a full disk of all the images. I think what she offers is a great value. She's easy to work with; she met me for coffee to discuss the wedding a few weeks prior. I just felt comfortable with her, which goes a long way on your wedding day.

Inbal was really great to work with. She was super professional and sweet. Just when family or friends needed the whip to be cracked, she got everyone in line so we didn't have to spend all day on the portraits. We had a tornado basically touch down at our wedding and Inbal totally used it to her advantage - so the pictures all look really amazing. No elements will prevent her from doing a great job! I found that when I looked at her pictures from past weddings, I couldn't help but continue looking because each one was so artistically done. It's not a fluke, she is just incredibly talented and we have had an impossible time picking out our favorite pictures - there are just too many! Also - so many members of both families have commented on what a great job she did and how much everyone liked her. I can't recommend Inbal highly enough, there is no way you will be disappointed.

We just got our wedding photos yesterday, 4 weeks after the big day, and we are speechless. They are STUNNING!!!! Inbal's composition and editorial eye are superb - we couldn't be more pleased. She (and the pictures) exceeded our very high expectations. She took over 1200 photos and captured moments we didn't even realize we would have the opportunity to see! Very flexible, organized, professional, personable, and a real trooper through our very long day!

Inbal was a treat to work with. She is very funny also. Our guests all remarked that the only time they noticed the photographers was when they saw an impressive leap to get a shot, but they were out of the way and allowed our guests to have the best view. We're very happy with our choice.

Inbal was hands down the best photographer I have ever met. Throughout the entire process, she was responsive, professional, creative and provided us with a thorough capture of our entire day. She made it a point to move around, climb on to chairs, walk on the stage - do whatever it took to get the right shot. She was amazing. This is all reflected in the quality and quantity of her photos.

My now-husband and I are a bit camera-shy; we rarely take photos of ourselves and we don't spend much time looking at the ones we do have. So when it came time to get married, we knew we had to hire a photographer, but we weren't particularly excited about it.

Then we met Inbal. It sounds cheesy, but the moment I met her, I was completely at ease with the idea of being photographed all day. She's 100% no-nonsense, a straight-shooter (if you will) and I knew instantly this would be one photographer I could trust.

I cannot overstate Inbal's professionalism, dedication and responsiveness. I felt like I was her only client, such was the quality of attention she gave us. She attended our rehearsal, came early on the wedding day and stayed late. And she honored our wish to keep the portraits timeframe brief (we wanted to focus on candids), but still made sure we got the shots we'll need for posterity. But it was her sense of humor that really saved the day and made us feel comfortable. If we lived in the same city, I'd pretty much demand that we be friends.

THEN we got the photos. I was nervous, I almost didn't want to look. But the fact is that we've never looked better in our lives. Inbal caught all of the key moments and every angle of our extreme happiness, and it all shows up in the beautiful images she delivered.

I couldn't be happier, and I couldn't recommend any wedding vendor more highly.

From the moment we met Inbal we knew that she was the right photographer for us. And what a relief since I had already spent hours stalking all the amazing work on her website and blog. Anyway, Inbal was friendly, professional, and swore that she could whip our sometimes unruly families into shape on our big day. Well, she kept her promise. We got all the family portraits we wanted and then some and had plenty of time left to get all of our couple shots. On the day of the wedding, Inbal was both a pleasure to be around and a ghost that you didn't notice. From the engagement photos to the ceremony to portraits and the reception, we got the most stunning collection of memories we could have asked for. I could look through them right now and get teary eyed while I relive the day. Inbal was also extremely flexible. When a freak October snowstorm derailed our plans for an engagement shoot in Central Park, Inbal made rescheduling a breeze. In addition, we got all of our pictures before the contractual deadline, which is a huge relief for any eager bride. Oh and because I want everyone to know just how awesome Inbal is, I was "blessed" with the largest pimple I've ever had smack dab in the middle of my forehead on my wedding day. However, you wouldn't know it from looking at any of our pictures. On that note, I highly recommend Inbal.

Inbal is an artistic genius. My husband and I were thrilled with our pictures. Inbal has an incredible way of capturing the moment - whether it's the romance of the portrait shots or the craziness of the dance floor. But the most important thing we want from our photographer is to make us look good, right? Inbal is the absolute right choice for that! She made me look the best I've ever looked in photos (and many of my friends and family say the same about how they look in our wedding photos also).
In addition, Inbal is a ton of fun to work with; we had a blast together.
Simply put, Inbal's the best there is.

We loved Inbal! She met us at our venue and walked around the city streets looking for ideas of where to shoot the day of the wedding. We then had dinner with her and just loved every bit of her as a person as well as a professional. The day of the wedding, she couldnt have been more fun, professional, non-invasive, creative, and calming! She was supposed to leave at a certain time in our contract and I kept seeing her taking one more picture and then another picture, just making sure she got all the shots. We waited the full 60 days like she has in her contract but the photos are well worth the wait! They are all so beautiful and artistic and she took tons of shots of the same thing over and over so we have so much to choose from! She gave us over 700 photos! The DVD arrives in a sweet gifted box with a bow and inside was a treat of 6 of I assume her favorite photos. I will miss her and cant wait until I need her services again!

Inbal exceeded our highest expectations for a wedding photographer every step of the way. From the start, she was an absolute pleasure to work with. Professional and experienced, yet flexible and laid back, Inbal helped us to craft the perfect wedding photo package and plan for our big day. Throughout our wedding, Inbal and her assistant made us feel comfortable and confident with the photo-taking process. We hardly noticed they were there! And yet the photos are outstanding, capturing every moment of the wedding. They are indescribably beautiful. We are overjoyed with the 900+ photos we received and so thankful that we chose Inbal as our photographer after receiving a recommendation from a close friend. We would highly recommend Inbal to anyone who wants the highest quality shots at a very fair price. And she has such a unique perspective through the camera lens--highly creative! We are absolutely thrilled with our wedding photos and the complete approach that Inbal takes to her art.

I just got my photos back from Inbal from my August 2011 wedding and I am in awe. They are absolutely gorgeous and perfect. Our wedding threw everyone a curve ball when what was planned to be a beautiful outdoor affair on a family farm turned into a torrential downpour for the entire evening. Inbal had to completely adjust her thinking and planning and work with the situation. Though we missed out on some important shots due to the weather, Inbal completely captured the spirit of our wedding. My husband and I are amazed at how well all the feelings, sentiments, and general atmosphere of our wedding are captured in each gallery Inbal sent us. She was professional and good natured and I could tell she really invested herself into the entire event, being friendly with my family members and immediately understanding the feeling of our wedding. The pictures she took are so cherished and will be forever. Everyone I know has complemented our pictures and said they are the best they've seen. She gave us access to them online as soon as they were ready and then sent us a gorgeous DVD of all images, sized for web and print, which was an amazing and thoughtful touch. Perhaps the most impressive way Inbal went above and beyond was when she offered my husband and me an additional photo shoot after our wedding because the weather interrupted so many of our photo plans. She really takes her job seriously and is fun to be around. We are so thankful for her hard work and could not be more pleased that we chose her to be our wedding photographer. Thank you a million times over Inbal!

Inbal Sivan was our wedding photographer and we could not have been happier with the results. Inbal is a total professional, a gifted photographer and a really nice person to work with. Every step of the way, she made the process easy for us, used her expertise to advise us when needed, and was very responsive to all of our questions. The quality, creativity and uniqueness of her work is what drew us to her, but she actually exceeded our expectations. We (and our family and friends) LOVE our photographs. She captured the emotion of the day and the special details so perfectly.

I cannot say enough about how much my husband and I both loved Inbal! We hired her to do our wedding and while we liked her from the beginning she surpassed our greatest expectations.

Inbal is highly professional, creative and will do everything in her power to get the perfect shot. From the time she stepped through the door she worked non stop to get creative shots of my husband and I, and in the seconds where we needed to talk to a caterer, minister, etc she was off taking shots of our rings, shoes, etc. Neither of us like having our picture taken (my husband really hates it), but Inbal made it fun and really helped us to relax. On the day we were married we had a heat wave which changed our plans of having pictures taken in the Park. Inbal was prepared with lots of backup plans so in the end neither of us regretted that we could not go outside for very long. She brought an assistant to help her out because of the heat and dealt with a highly aggressive marketing director that did not want us to take pictures in the lobby of our hotel (without us even knowing there was a problem). Needless to say we didn’t need to worry about a thing with Inbal. We can’t wait to see the pictures!

I would highly recommend Inbal for capturing the most important moments in your life.

Choosing the photographer was a daunting task because my husband and I wanted a professional who could really capture the emotion and spirit of the wedding in the shots. We chose very well with Inbal. The photographs burst with color and emotions! She also captured all the details of the wedding we missed because of craziness of the day. We had 3 little flower girls who were a bit difficult to get into the portraits but she managed to keep their interest and get a whole bunch of great photographs with them. Her professionalism and creativity were spot on. She brought a 2nd photographer to get more of the overall sweeping shots and cover all the guest shots. This was so important. I can highly recommend Inbal Sivan.

My Wedding was a small Intimate Gathering in Brooklyn, with only 15 guests. I searched for a Photographer that would be willing to Photograph my rinky dink small wedding, which I found was very hard to do. Lots of Photographers declined my proposal because it wasn’t a big expensive 8 hour shooting day kind of Wedding. But things happen for a reason, Low and Behold I came across Inbal Sivan’s Website.

She was able to do a A La Cart package for me and we agreed on only needing 4 hours. She was a total professional and never acted like she was too good for my small Wedding.

I felt such joy having such a powerhouse Photographer, in my Wedding. She did it with such ease and poise. It really felt like one of my friends was Photographing us, I felt so comfortable around her there was never an awkward moment with her. Lets face it were not all models or know what to do in front of a camera and she was very patient in helping us pose and get the right shot for our photos.

But don’t let the friendliness fool you, this girl is a total pro and knows what she’s doing. I’m amazed at how easy she makes her job look, I was already winded and tired after an hour and she still had lots of energy and smiles to go around with everyone. She is especially great with children, As well as Husbands that don’t understand the concept of Wedding photography and posing LOL .

Without a doubt Inbal was my favorite Vendor through my whole Wedding process, if only more Wedding Industry people could be as genuine and sweet as her.
You will not be disappointed, The Wedding dress will get yellow, the cake will be gone, the gifts will go to storage but your Wedding Photos will last a life time. She really captures the moment of your special day and its like reliving my day all over again looking at my pics. She is the best! Thanks again Inbal!

We worked with Inbal for our wedding this past April, and I could not have asked for a better photographer!

She is not only a fantastic photographer, but an awesome person, which becomes really important during your planning stage as well as your big day. She is patient, understanding and empathetic. She is a great listener and will pay utmost attention to what you want and need, but she is also very good at knowing when to make a decision and give directives. She will make you and your guests feel at ease, which helps make the photos turn out looking very natural.

As to her photography, she is just very very good at what she does. Her photos have compositions like what you will see in paintings--angles, shapes and lines that complete one another to produce very artistic pictures. She also has great eye for details and knows how to make romantic photos without making them look cliche or cheesy. She is very quick, which you will realize is key to making sure all the spontaneous moments of your big day are captured in your photos.

Need I say more? Yes, there is more. Inbal also has very flexible and competitive pricing. I made price and schedule inquiries to many top of the line photographers around here (NYC) and found that most, if not all, have hefty minimums with full day commitments. Inbal has a very reasonable minimum in terms of the number of hours of service and minimum fee for those hours, and you can add incremental hours as you wish. So you get top notch photos without feeling like you had to pay for more than what you ultimately wanted. That was quite important to me, since I was trying to manage the budget carefully. Don't get me wrong though; there is no compromise in quality here.

All in all, she just really hit the spot right on. Inbal is just so amazingly talented and good at her craft, and it helps a great deal that she is funny, low-key, reliable and understanding!

I hired Inbal to shoot my wedding after seeing her photos from a colleague's wedding. Her rates were reasonable and she was very flexible and accommodating. What I ended up with are some of the most beautiful photos I have ever seen. I was in tears (multiple times) the first time I looked through my slideshow. Inbal does not just take photos - she uses the art of photography to capture emotions, reactions, and small moments that would otherwise go unnoticed. She is a fantastic artist and a beautiful photographer.

As a photographer and future bride, I combed through NY Mag's list of wedding photographers looking for the perfect fit. Inbal's work immediately set her apart from the rest (it took a while to get to the "S" section!) I was stunned by her incredible use of light, unique viewpoints, and evident love for both the romance and humor of weddings.
My husband and I were so excited that Inbal and her assistant, Katie Sokoler, were available for our New Years Day wedding and booked them immediately. Today, we could not be more thrilled with the results. It's almost four months later and my mother still tears up every times she sees our pictures.
As another reviewer pointed out, having Inbal at your wedding is like having a dear friend around -- who always has a joke or smile to share. One of the many hilarious and wonderful moments from the wedding was when Inbal and her assistant took a five minute break to dance at the reception. They weren't just our photographers - they were a big part of the joy that day.
And, as for the pictures... they speak for themselves. Check out her portfolio: www.inbalsivan.com
I cannot recommend Inbal Sivan more highly.
Thank you, Inbal!

After my wedding I received compliments on two things - the food and the music. But after showing everyone my wedding photos, I can add the photogrpaher to the list of compliments!

Inbal was a fantastic photographer from beginning to end. We found her funny, nice and thoughtful - exactly someone you want to be sharing your wedding day with!

One of my biggest concerns was I did not want to be noticing the photograher thoughtout my wedding day, I didn't want to remember the photographer during my vows, speeches and first dance and I must say - Inbal captured every moment but was discreet and blended in. Her photos were beautiful and exactly what I hoped for. We could not be happier!

Inbal was truly amazing to work with. She is genuine and warm, and this translates directly to the fantastic photographs she took at our wedding this past October at The Montauk Club in Brooklyn. From behind the camera, she was able to bring out the best in us and all of our guests. She captured our celebration so beautifully, that to look at our wedding pictures is to feel the overwhelming emotion of each moment. The images candidly and elegantly express the excitement, sentiment (and chaos) of our event! They also convey the unique character of the building and neighborhood, which was very important to us. Even the handful of obligatory family portraits, that often come off so stiff and over-posed, are absolutely magical. You will love working with her. She is professional, meticulously organized and has incredible creative input - and on top of that, she's a lot of fun. Inbal brings a distinct energy and dedication to her work that is rare: there were points when she was standing in traffic and running through Prospect Park just to get that great shot of us!

We love Inbal! Her amazing photos got us a full page feature in the NY Daily News. She has a quirky & fun way of approaching wedding photography that creates images that you will always cherish. We did not want a super strict photographer that stressed everybody out (we've been to too many of those weddings).

I fell in love with Inbal's pictures during a random online photographers search. I emailed her immediately and we set up a meeting. I knew we would work well together immediately after this initial visit. She is fun, funny and takes amazing pictures. She is also organized and has been to so many weddings that she knows what happens, when everything happens and how to get the best shots.

The wedding day was everything I had hoped for. Inbal was on time and put me at ease throughout the whole day. She took some really creative shots and made our family and friends feel comfortable enough to be silly on camera.

We also utilized Inbal's "photobooth" capabilities and our guests loved it. We got some fun props from Etsy and they were all a big hit.

Overall, I would recommend Inbal to everyone. Her pictures are fantastic.

Inbal is without a doubt one of the most talented photographers I have ever come across. Every bride will search far and wide for the perfect photographer and hope that the one you picks will be able to capture the best memories of your life. I honestly could not have asked for anything better. I am pretty camera shy but Inbal made me feel so comfortable and beautiful that all that disappeared on the day of the wedding. Our pictures are beyond beautiful and the standard wedding pictures; they are art. I am so happy that I will have these pictures with me forever to remember such a great day. Inbal was so nice and fun to work with. I am extremely thankful to have come across her work and to have her a part of my big day. She has my fullest confidence and I HIGHLY recommend her.

Inbal was absolutely the best photographer. She was completely professional, her pictures are stunning and she is hilarious. She made everyone feel totally comfortable. She is fantastic. I can't wait until I have another major life moment so she can photograph it!

I couldn't have imagined a better wedding photographer than Inbal. From the moment we booked her, she was responsive, professional, and, most importantly for us, fun. We had a great time shooting our engagement photos with her (and they turned out insanely gorgeous) and she (along with second shooter Dante Williams) made our wedding day pictures as smooth as possible. We got more compliments on our photos than almost any other part of our wedding and that's all due to Inbal.

I can't count how many people have lavishly complimented Inbal's photographs of our wedding. She was great to work with, clearly committed to her product (she visited our venue with us two months out, and provided a ton of crazy flash equipment to ensure it would be properly lit), and was perfectly on the sidelines on the day itself. After the wedding, Inbal always responded to my questions quickly, and the one time we had a technical glitch, was on it immediately. Even if she hadn't been so responsive, I would still recommend her, as her work is stunning - but she's the whole package. I cannot recommend Inbal highly enough. Thank you Inbal!!!

We first found Inbal on-line and were impressed with her portfolio. We were particularly impressed with the balance she struck between art and documentary-style shots. We quickly contacted her and she started by exceeding our expectations. She only got better from there.

She met us at our reception location a few months before our wedding for our initial meeting, and later rode her bike out to meet us at the park where we were holding the ceremony. That's because we were going to have a bicycle parade after our ceremony and she wanted to ride with us around our neighborhood to scope out shots in some of our favorite places. Throughout the process, she gave us advice that not only improved our photos but actually made our reception better. (Thanks, Inbal!)

She was virtually invisible during our reception despite getting some of the best photographs of our families that we've ever seen. Our friends and relatives were agog with the results. All we know is we had an amazing wedding and when we look at Inbal's photos we are transported back there.

Like most couples, we searched long and hard for a photographer, and as luck would have it we stumbled upon Inbal. As soon we as saw the first images that Inbal posted, it was hard to believe that it was our wedding and not a magazine shoot. Let’s just say Inbal has no problem capturing a moment. If you’ve seen some of the pictures on her site, you know what we mean, but it’s more than just the amazing pictures. Inbal is hilarious and so much fun to have at a wedding. Everyone was drawn to her, and she made everyone feel at ease throughout the day. There’s a lot of photographers out there, but none as talented and thoughtful as Inbal. Thank you so much Inbal!!!

If you're looking for a "traditional" wedding photographer, Inbal isn't for you. She's young, laid-back, fun (and funny), has great energy, and most important for this, takes incredible photos. She's a talented photographer who will document your special day better than anyone else. She is well-prepared and on top of her game. She met with us twice to go over the day and talk in detail about the pictures we wanted. Instead of paying a small fortune per photo like other photographers, she simply sent me a DVD of all of my pictures that I can print on my own and copy. I have only the highest praise for Inbal. Inbal is simply the best.

I don't think I've ever filled out a survey in which I've been so thoroughly pleased and happy with someone's work. Inbal is brilliant! She photographed our wedding in October 2009 and captured hundreds - no joke, hundreds - of frame-worthy shots. She even managed to get my mom to stop her habit of blinking in photos. I don't make recommendations lightly, but I'd give Inbal a hearty endorsement any day of the week.

Inbal Sivan is a bona fide artist. The photographs she created were stunning in composition, lighting and angle. Everyone who saw our wedding album, and most importantly my husband and I, are of the opinion that Inbal's work is absolutely masterful. Inbal created for us a visual symphony of well captured moments that will forever warm our souls with memories of our special day. She was able to transmit what we were actually feeling (our joy, our love, our anticipation) so aptly in the photos, that whenever we see them we can recapture those same sensations. We cannot express how pleased we are with Inbal's skills as a photographer and the adeptness she showed when it came to blending into our wedding. Having her present felt as comfortable as having a dear friend around.

A phenomenal photographer on every level. Our pictures don't just capture great moments of the day, they are seriously works of art, and they tell the story of the day as well as any video could. I would have to grow many more hands and feet before i could count on all my fingers and toes how many people have raved about the wedding pictures and asked about the photographer. Not only are the pictures stunning but she is a dream to work with. She did exactly what we asked, getting a good mix of candid and posed shots and capturing every single guest at the wedding in a great moment. Our meetings with her were fun and we both feel like we came away with a new friend, and so did our bridal party and families. I think one of our groomsmen fell in love! There are so many things to plan in a wedding, don't waste your time agonizing over which photographer to choose. Just book Inbal.

From start to finish, Inbal and her two talented assistants were an absolute DREAM to work with. At our very first meeting with Inbal, both my husband and I immediately felt more that we were collaborating with a close personal friend than that we were contracting with a stranger. She listened carefully to our ideas, our personal preferences, our concept for the feel of our event and our undeveloped plan to possibly include a prop box and photo booth. At first, she asked questions to make sure she was on the same page with us and then began eagerly offering her own creative input. She stayed in touch, made sure that we met at the ceremony site prior to the big day, promptly provided an easy-to-understand contract and was always upfront but laid back about pricing.

On the big day, she integrated herself into our crazy group of friends and family members without skipping a beat and was therefore able to capture the naturally silly nature of our nearest and dearest. She, Dante and Lizzie navigated the trek out to the boonies of Jersey for the reception, bringing along supplemental props for our prop-box, an attitude that valued and encouraged fun and an artistry that is seldom applied to wedding photography.

Our guests were all enamored with the three friendly, camera-weilding faces that made their way through our party, expertly capturing all of our big moments and even more little ones without ever once feeling invasive or overbearing. When we look back at the photographs now, they allow us to relive not just the events of that unforgettable day but so many of the complicated emotions that went with them.

Many of our engaged friends are already planning to call upon Inbal to capture their weddings and my husband and I both ENTHUSIASTICALLY recommend Inbal and her associates to any couple seeking a profoundly talented artist to create a visual record of their important event.

Inbal was incredible to work with from the start. I must have made her nuts with all my questions and changes in plans, but she was always a calming presence and everything was "no big deal" or "no problem!" I can't wait to work with Inbal again and highly highly recommend her to anyone (and have passed her info along to many friends already). If you're looking for a fun, down to earth photographer who is also upper great at keeping everything calm, organized, and fun.... Inbal is definitely your girl!

What can I say about Inbal that hasn't already been said? She is super chill and creates beautiful pictures. You only need to see her portfolio to be impressed. Beautifully simple candid photos that capture the moment rather than make it seem artificial and cheesy. Great person to meet and work with, she was flexible with our crazy wedding timeline and is just extremely relaxed and a pleasure to work with.

My uninterested-in-photography husband and I are both extremely happy with our wedding pictures. Inbal and her assistant were unobtrusive during the day but managed to capture all of the important and lots of random fun moments which would otherwise have gone unnoticed. We walked away with a bunch of great candid portraits of our friends and family, including those who weren't in the wedding party. Several of our guests have commented on the lighting and color of the photos being striking and I do think Inbal's work is distinguished in this way. The pictures continue to grow on me even after few months of having them in hand.

As for negatives, not much to say. Inbal was late to a few meetings but this was not a big deal. I ended up spending more than I'd originally planned by going with her but this was a decision I based on loving Inbal's work and I think the value proposition is good.

A few other notes: our lighting situation was particularly challenging (dark) and the pictures came out great in spite of this. Also I appreciated Inbal's willingness to give us some more time than we'd agreed to at our engagement shoot and again at the wedding, in spite of her dealing with various stages of pregnancy in both cases. Inbal has good energy and great instincts.

If you like what you see of Inbal's work I don't think you'll regret going with her. I had high expectations and they were exceeded.

Inbal is a fantastic photographer and person. She was the most professional and reliable person we worked with for our wedding. The photographs from the big day captured all of the important moments and the friends and family members who attended. Each image struck the perfect balance between intimate and celebratory. I would highly recommend her, and we're very picky!

I can't say enough good things about the wedding photos Inbal took. They're amazing and everyone is blown away by them. I think her photography speaks for itself but I will comment on how remarkably professional and organized she is. Being super type A myself, I really respected her work ethic and how detail oriented she is. That being said we had SO much fun with her on our wedding day. One of our favorite parts of the night was riding in our taxi to the reception chatting and joking with Inbal. She was perfect!!

Inbal is a very talented photographer and great fun to work with. She is very easy-going and supportive throughout the process. We are so happy with the photos from our wedding! She shoots as a photojournalist and so takes beautiful, not-over-posed pictures of the day. She also is very reasonably priced for the quality of photos and service. We would highly recommend her!

My husband and I are relieved that we chose Inbal as our wedding photographer. We've interviewed and considered many others, and we made the right choice. Inbal is easy to work with and flexible to our needs. Even though we preferred a photojournalistic approach, all of the candid photos came out very artistic, classy and elegant. They captured the story that happened during our special day. All of our guests in attendance, as well as those who could not come, raved and praised our wedding photos. Would we choose Inbal again? Yes we will.
