So happy!!!
WOW - we could not be happier with our wedding (and engagement!) photos from Serge! He is so fun to work with, made us feel relaxed behind camera -- which is saying a lot for both of us -- and I can't stop looking through our wedding gallery. His style is bright and cheerful, which is exactly what we were looking for for our colorful spring wedding. Would 100% recommend and would use again! We got to the venue later than expected from some hair/makeup delays and he took so many great shots that you can't even tell. He made sure to get the standard portraits but also plenty of more fun and candid shots. We will cherish the day forever and it's amazing to have it captured so beautifully. Thank you Serge!WOW - we could not be happier with our wedding (and engagement!) photos from Serge!

Dear Lauren and Thor,
Wow, thank you both so much for your incredible review! I couldn't be happier knowing that you are both thrilled with your wedding and engagement photos. It was an absolute joy working with both of you, and I'm truly honored to have captured the special moments of your journey together.
Your words mean the world to me, and I'm overjoyed to hear that I was able to capture the essence of your colorful spring wedding. It was a pleasure to be a part of your special day and to witness the genuine love and joy shared between you two.
Once again, thank you both for your kind words. It was an absolute honor to be your photographer, and I would be absolutely thrilled to work with you again in the future, perhaps on a breathtaking photoshoot in Iceland! Wishing you a lifetime filled with boundless love, everlasting happiness, and a treasury of beautiful memories.
Warmest regards,
Serge -

Great Time!
First and foremost I want to say I'm a pretty big dude and I'm not very graceful when I move. When Serge hyped me up during my engagement photoshoot I realized these hips don't lie and I worked the camera. My fiancé Stephanie and I had a really fun time working with Serge, and I need to give the man credit for waking up at 5AM and driving to DC to take our photos. (For the record waking up that early wasn't my idea) That takes dedication. He even let us include our dog Paul Anna. 10/10 I would absolutely recommend anyone looking for a photographer to use Sokolov Photography. Serge turned it into a really, really fun experience!First and foremost I want to say I'm a pretty big dude and I'm not very graceful when I move.

Dear Stephanie and Louis,
It was a pleasure working with both of you and capturing your joyful moments together, including Paul Anka who added a charming touch to the session. Stephanie, your energy and elegance in front of the camera were fantastic.
Kudos to mom for the help on such early morning :)
Louis, congratulations on your acceptance to Yale! Best of luck as you embark on this exciting new chapter of your life.
'til next time,

Everyone loved Serge!
We're so glad we found Serge for our wedding day! He offered a few different package options to meet the needs of our small wedding, and he was super responsive & knowledgable as we discussed details ahead of the big day. Everyone at our wedding loved Serge! He was so fun to work with and got smiles out of everyone. He captured so many wonderful photos of our ceremony & reception, including our golden retriever and our rainy walk between venues!We're so glad we found Serge for our wedding day!

Best photographer
We contacted Serge to be our photographer for our wedding and we are very happy about his service. He came at our apartment to take pictures of us, then he suggested different places in Washington DC where to take nice pictures. He took a lot of pictures of us alone and with our guests at the ceremony and during the dinner. He also took pictures of couples and friends without us. Everybody were satisfied about his pictures. He was kind, professional and he fulfilled all our requests. I totally recommend Serge for your special eventWe contacted Serge to be our photographer for our wedding and we are very happy about his service.

A top-notch photographer
It was an absolute pleasure to work with Serge, and I can't praise his professionalism and talent enough! From the moment we met, his friendly demeanor and genuine interest in understanding my vision for the photos impressed me. Serge has a unique and special approach to each client, making me feel like my shoot was tailored exclusively for me.
What truly amazed me was how he managed to transform my husband's perspective on photography. Normally not fond of being in front of the camera, my husband was initially hesitant. However, Serge's charm and skillful direction put him at ease instantly. He created a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, and my husband ended up having a fantastic time during the photoshoot – a memorable experience he had just for himself.
Serge's creativity shines through his work, and the final results were beyond expectations. The attention to detail and the ability to capture genuine emotions in every shot is a true testament to his expertise.
I highly recommend Serge to anyone seeking a top-notch photographer who produces stunning images and makes the entire process enjoyable and personalized. He is an artist with a gift for bringing out the best in his clients, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome of our photoshoot!It was an absolute pleasure to work with Serge, and I can't praise his professionalism and talent enough!

Great photographer - awesome photos & fun to work with!
My husband and I had an amazing experience working with Serge during our wedding! We are extremely happy with the photos - both from the ceremony and photo session we had afterwards. Serge managed to capture very special moments of the day and make everyone look amazing. He is not only a talented photographer who gets the best possible angles and finds ways to work with people who are not good at posing in photos; he is also a wonderful person and fun to work with - full of energy, passionate about what he's doing and enthusiastic. I highly recommend Sokolov Photography for your special day or event - you will be very happy with the quality of the photos and 100% have fun!My husband and I had an amazing experience working with Serge during our wedding!

Serge did our engagement photos and they turned out fantastic! He was wonderful to work with. Serge was so full of energy which definitely made the session more fun and relaxing. He has a great eye for working with the environment that is available to achieve interesting shots. I'm pretty sure that's his photography superpower.Serge did our engagement photos and they turned out fantastic! He was wonderful to work with.

Excellent service
Excellent service. Sergey was very flexible about the date and place for our engagement photoshoot which was very important for us. My husband wanted to have a photo session somewhere near the coastline, and Sergey surprised us with how knowledgeable he is about the good spots for the pictures in Maryland. Now we are going to have Sergey as our photographer for the wedding in July. Very excited about it!Excellent service.

We were so lucky that Sokolov Photography / Serge was available on our wedding day! Our communication was speedy and clear from the beginning. Serge is very talented, he went the extra mile (or two!) for us, was very approachable and accommodating, friendly and fun to be around as a person, worked with us on our budget, captured very candid moments, yet also got all of the important moments documented. Overall, it was such a pleasure to interact with him and our pictures look great. Everyone felt comfortable with him which is what you want form a photographer. I would highly, highly recommend him!We were so lucky that Sokolov Photography / Serge was available on our wedding day! Our communication was speedy and clear from the beginning.

Best Photographer Ever!
Serge was the best photographer we could have asked for! We hired him based on his style; bold, artsy, fun, memorable. Not to mention his pricing was great value. He was a joy to work with since day one. We hired him to both our engagement photos and ultimately our wedding celebration. He has been very upbeAat and pleasurable to work with. We first hired him to do our engagement photoshoot in late 2019 and a planned wedding in May of 2020. The engagement photoshoot was amazing, excellent energy, very outgoing, involved our dog and our guests, went above and beyond, and the photos (so many of them) turned out amazing, exactly like his portfolio reflected and then some. Unfortunately due to COVID, our wedding was postponed 3 times over, from May 2020 to ultimately October 2021. Serge was highly accommodating and stick by us the entire time as if COVID never happened, never once did he say no through all of the unpredictability. The day of the wedding celebration was as perfect as one would hope - just a year and a half later than expected. Serge again went above and beyond, incredibly outgoing, having a blast, very involved. He even brought a second photographer per our request and was able to capture concurrent events happening in two places during the day. All of the guests raved about Serge and his assistant, they were well loved by everyone. They were not only there to work the special day, but they became part of the special day. 10/10 would recommend!!Serge was the best photographer we could have asked for!

Phenomenal
Serge was absolutely phenomenal! We had a small wedding at Bel Air, Maryland, and from the moment we met Serge, he made us feel so comfortable, even with all that wedding chaos around. I have a little understanding of how he did it, but while following us everywhere, he somehow managed to take stunning pictures of all the quests in the wedding. Before the reception, some of our plans went badly wrong, there was a delay in catering, but he made his best to make everyone smile and feel relaxed. He always went an extra mile to help us with technical and organizational issues, always listened to us and brought SO MANY superb ideas for pictures that I would think that this person's been working in the industry for at least a century. And yes - above all, we had fun even during our pre-wedding consultations where Serge got to know our personalities to make us at ease. I promise you will not be disappointed.

Engagement photo session with Sokolov Photography
This is our second photo shoot with Sokolov Photography team - we worked with them when we had a birthday party for my friend in June, and in December 2018 we had an engagement photo shoot at National Mall in DC. We really wanted Serge to be our photographer for our upcoming wedding but unfortunately, he was already booked!
Both sessions with this guy were absolutely amazing. Super professional, easy going, Serge made all of us feel very comfortable. My fiance was trying to convince me that engagement photo shoot is not a good idea but after a photo session, he changed his mind completely. And when we received the pictures, he admitted that he was definitely wrong! Photos are simply magical, Serge managed to create an impressively huge set of lifetime memories for us.
Our concern was that the National Mall was very crowded on that day. But somehow Serge took all the pictures in some mystical way so among all the people around it feels like there is no one in the whole world except just two of us! Absolutely stunning. Thank you, Serge, we will cherish these photos forever!This is our second photo shoot with Sokolov Photography team - we worked with them when we had a birthday party for my friend in June, and in December 2018 we had an engagement photo shoot at National Mall in DC.

Fun, professional, affordable
We really enjoyed working with Serge Sokolov!
He met with us in person before we signed the contract to go over his offerings and help us understand what it might be like working with his company. We liked his portfolio and loved that all of the options came with full digital rights.
The day of the event he arrived on time and hit the ground running. He and his partner got along well with our guests and we enjoyed a number of the shots he pushed us on (I wasn't crazy about stuffing my face with cotton candy—but now I'm happy I did it).
We were really pleasantly surprised by his amazingly fast turnaround of our photos as well. It's not even a month and we have all of our photos back, ready to share with friends and fam.
I've already recommended Serge to others getting married in the near future.We really enjoyed working with Serge Sokolov!

The day of the event he arrived on time and hit the ground running. He and his partner got along well with our guests and we enjoyed a number of the shots he pushed us on (I wasn't crazy about stuffing my face with cotton candy—but now I'm happy I did it).
We were really pleasantly surprised by his amazingly fast turnaround of our photos as well. It's not even a month and we have all of our photos back, ready to share with friends and fam.

Fun and wonderful engagement photo session
I thought that it will take two weeks for Serge to release the album. But he was fast and sent me within first week. It was fun working with him and we enjoy the final results of it. We appreciate the enthusiasm and passion Serge have for his photography. And we are satisfied with the photos. We have shared the album with friends and family. I would not thank him enough for the service! Keep up the good work!I thought that it will take two weeks for Serge to release the album. But he was fast and sent me within first week.

Worth every penny and more!
I would say Serge (I always misspelled his name, hopefully finally I did it right) is a world-class photographer, at least when it comes to a wedding. My partner and I had a wedding in Aberdeen, MD at the end of February which is totally not the best time for such an event. But even though the weather was disgusting, our pictures turned out to be filled with light, joy, and fun!
My husband and I never liked being in front of a camera, but the way how Serge navigated us and gave us clear directions on what to do and how to pose was so easy and relaxing. He encouraged us to pose, to do some funny stuff but being yourself at the same time which was amazing! Serge also control the crowds during the group pictures, and obviously, every single person at the wedding enjoyed his work.
What I appreciate the most is how patient this guy was. My nephew is an extremely active 9-year old boy who was jumping and running around while Serge was taking pictures. Was it a problem for him? Not at all. He managed somehow to communicate with the boy and keep taking amazing photos at the same time.

Great job!
Hiring Sokolov Photography for our wedding was truly one of the best decision we made. We had a vibrant, old-style wedding at Joppatown waterfront, and now we have a brilliant reminiscence of this special day - thanks to Serge! He puts us at ease, helped us and our guests to pose and even though some of our family members are not big fans of photo shooting, no one felt shy or awkward. He did his job in a fascinating, sometimes even self-sacrificing manner as he made some shots from the angle that put him at risk of falling down from the pier. As a result: the pictures are stunning, EVERY single photo tells a story so all the time when I look at the album I remember exactly how I felt in the moment.
Thank you and good luck, Serge! Your job was incredible.Hiring Sokolov Photography for our wedding was truly one of the best decision we made.

Excellent choice
We worked with Serge last summer for the birthday photo shoot of my little brother, so right after the proposal, we booked him immediately for the wedding. And it was such a blast! Serge captured those tiny little moments of the day that we'd forget otherwise, and the pictures caught everyone's personality just perfect! He took remarkable candid photographs of us and our guests too, all while remaining unobtrusive, kind and really really fun - I would invite Serge for the wedding one more time only for his jokes and the way he made everyone laugh. So if you're looking for professionalism, amazing pics and fun - you found it.We worked with Serge last summer for the birthday photo shoot of my little brother, so right after the proposal, we booked him immediately for the wedding.

We had such a wonderful experience with Sokolov Photography! They did redo of our wedding photo session. We had such a terrible photographer on our wedding day and we had to do another photo session after the wedding. Sokolov Photography agreed to organize it for us in a short notices. The photographer was very creative and enthusiastic and the pictures turned out to be fantastic! I highly recommend Mr. Sokolov, he is the best! Choose your photographer wisely to avoid having second photo session after the wedding...We had such a wonderful experience with Sokolov Photography! They did redo of our wedding photo session.

Professional, quality, and flexible
After we signed our marriage paperwork (elopement) Serge took photos of my wife and I. We greatly appreciated his flexibility on short notice, and were pleased with the final product. The photographic setting was a public place, and he did a good job of managing the lighting conditions, and findings tasteful backgrounds and poses. We got our photos back in a timely manner, conveniently accessibly in digital format. He provided a very good quality of work, with professional and friendly service.
