    Incredible & Personable Photographer

    I hired Svetlana for my wedding this past November at the LBJ Wildflower Center and I truly could not have chosen better. Not only is she a master at her craft, but she takes care to know what lighting, backdrops and angles work for YOU.
    If you want to look and feel gorgeous on your wedding day and trust that your photographer is going to grab the most flattering angles and genuine moments - Svetlana is your girl.
    There's no question in my mind that my husband and I will be going back to her for additional photoshoots down the road. Along with her finished product being top of the line, she also has a sweet, calm and confident personality. You feel like she's just as excited to be there as you are and has a true passion for capturing the best moments for you and your loved ones.
    I felt like I had a friend by the end of the evening and I can't recommend her highly enough.

    Svetlana Photography's reply:

    Katherine, you are the sweetest! Thank you for all you have said. You are correct, I am as excited to be there as the bride! 100 % I hope to be see you again soon!

    We had the great pleasure of working with Svetlana for our wedding. She was wonderful to work with -- and incredibly accommodating. The photos she took turned out to be more beautiful than we could have imagined! Looking at them, we almost felt like we were able to relive the day. Thank you, Svetlana, for these incredible photos. If you're looking for someone who will help you remember your special day, we highly recommend Svetlana!

    Pre-wedding and wedding photography

    Svetlana was such a phenomenal photographer. She came early, stayed late, and managed to take so many beautiful pictures among the chaos and hustle that comes with having two ceremonies in one day. As happens with every wedding, things didn't go according to plan (aka we had to go with the rain plan) and Svetlana was able to go with the flow on very short notice and get some stunning pictures!

    An incredible and one of the most sought after Austin wedding photographers! Once I booked her, I just relaxed as I knew I was in good hands. At the wedding, she knew exactly what to do and what shots to take; she guided us all through the shoots and made it very easy and enjoyable. And always with a smile on her face! She'll do whatever it takes to capture a good shot, even will climb a balustrade (and yes, she did!). She has an eye for beauty and she’s a perfectionist! Our wedding pictures are gorgeous and we'll be enjoying them for the rest of our lives. They truly allow us to relive our special day any time. I HIGHLY recommend hiring Svetlana as your wedding photographer! You'll be happy you did!

    Svetlana is awesome! I really can't recommend her enough. She did both my bridals and our wedding, and the photos came out beautifully. She captured all the must-have shots and also customized the sessions so that they were uniquely us. She was very open to the moment and corralled our chaotic family into the best group shots we've taken. We ended up printing them off and sending them to everyone. I felt completely comfortable around her, and she got the shots she needed/we wanted without disrupting the magic of the day -- that's truly a talent and an art.

    We hired Svetlana for our engagement photo shoot and she was awesome. She put me at ease really quickly and was ready and filled with ideas. She captured a lot of beautiful shots and candid moments between me and my fiance. We would definitely recommend her for anyone who is looking for a professional wedding photographer who is easy to work with, friendly, professional and just absolutely awesome.

    Svetlana is the photographer you want. She provided fantastic samples of her work in deciding to hire her and her work stands out from among any other: she brings a level of passion, creativity, and joy for the event that is unparalleled. Be ready with any specific photo lists such as bride's and groom's families, once provided she'll ensure any requested photos are made. She arrived early to take venue photos, static photos of rings and bridal gown and shoes, and took excellent photos from both bridal and groom's suites right before the event. She covered all aspects of the wedding and the reception, including the sparkler departure and was quick to provide photos. Many guests noted how she never seemed to take a break. She is simply an outstanding photographer.

    Svetlana did such an amazing job with both our engagement photos and our wedding photos. The photographer was at the top of my list for wedding services and I really felt like I lucked out when we were able to book Svetlana as our photographer. Her work is stunning and we came away from our wedding not knowing which photos were our favorite since they were all so amazing. Svetlana clearly has a passion for her work and was incredibly helpful, responsive, and professional the entire time throughout the process. My entire family loved her outgoing personality and candor and continued raving about her even after the wedding. I truly felt lucky to have been able to work with Svetlana and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer.

    If you are choosing a photographer, look no further than Svetlana! I knew Sveltana was who I wanted to be my wedding photographer as soon as I saw her photos on the Villa Antonia website. Her photography was stunning, and we ended up having her take our engagement photos, bridal portraits, and wedding photos. She helped us feel natural and at ease at all photo shoots, and some how managed to capture all of those wonderful, beautiful moments during the wedding. She has a talent for capturing the perfect look or moment in the best lighting, I had so many compliments on our photos and I of course always sung her praises!! Looking back on our wedding photos 1 year later, I am still so amazed by her talent and the quality of photos she has given us, I am so grateful that we were able to work with Svetlana!!

    Svetlana came highly recommended by both our church and reception venue. After reviewing Svetlana's amazing work on her blog, my husband and I knew her style fit us perfectly. We had an indoor church wedding followed by an indoor reception, so we wanted a photographer who was experienced with indoor photography (as well as outdoor photography!). Svetlana shot our engagement photos and our wedding, and we loved every minute of working with her. My husband and I (2 engineers) are not natural models, but Svetlana arrived with such enthusiasm and knew exactly how to pose us (and make it look natural!). She was also able to keep up with the chaos of the wedding day, capturing everything from my bridals to us dancing the night away. When the bridal party arrived 30 minutes late and I was feeling quite anxious, Svetlana knew exactly what pictures she wanted to take and what pictures were on our shot list and got to shooting away. Her positivity and professionalism saved the day! The quality and creativity of Svetlana's work is invaluable. We'll definitely use Svetlana for all of our future photography needs and highly recommend her :)

    If I could give Svetlana more than 5 stars, I would! Our photos are AMAZING. She was so easy and professional to work with. Planning a wedding can definitely be stressful, but I never had to worry about my photographer. Svetlana is beyond talented and her photography truly is a work of art. Not only did the photos come out perfect, but she really made sure to capture all the special moments throughout the night - not only of my husband and I, but of our guests. Her pictures are just natural and not so staged. We will always go with Svetlana for any occasion that we need to capture. You will not be disappointed!

    Svetlana is a preferred vendor with our venue (Villa Antonia) and had a glowing reputation. I first fell in love with her work when on our venue’s website since most of their photos were captured by her. The first time I met her in person was the day of the wedding and I needed help getting dressed. Svetlana actually helped me get into my corset bra, shoes, and wedding dress the day of the wedding because everyone else was behind on their hair & makeup. I felt embarrassed having to ask her, but she immediately made me feel so comfortable. She is one of the kindest people I’ve met and you can tell she is extremely dedicated to her work. She was incredibly professional and told us exactly what to do – where to stand, what to do with our hands, etc. which eased our minds. All of our family members and guests loved her! We received our photos after the wedding very quickly (2-3 weeks) which included the bridal portraits I had taken the day of the wedding, as well. My goodness, I can’t even look at our wedding photos without crying! Svetlana was able to capture all of the most important moments while somehow still managing to find the time to capture those precious candid moments, as well. She has the incredible ability of capturing raw emotion in every photograph so it takes me back to the day of the wedding every time I look at the photos. Thank you so much Svetlana for taking such remarkable photos at our wedding. We will truly cherish them forever! I would definitely recommend booking Svetlana for your photography needs. We will definitely be contacting her for future sessions when it’s our anniversary!

    We are in love with our wedding photos! Svetlana is incredibly talented and she put us at ease, giving us just the right amount of direction. We knew we were in the hands of a true professional. Since it rained on our wedding day, I was worried about photos, but not only did Svetlana stand out in the rain with us, she made us look amazing! My friends and family are raving about them as well, since she managed to capture not just artful and romantic shots of us, but also both solemn and joyful photos of our friends and family that really capture the day. Leading up to our wedding she was very responsive to my questions and helped us with our timeline. We were also impressed to get all our photos only two weeks after the wedding! My only regret is not having done engagement photos with her, because we would have had even more amazing photos! We would absolutely recommend Svetlana to anyone!

    I would highly recommend booking Svetlana Photography for your big day! Svetlana took our engagement pictures, my bridal pictures and our wedding photos. We loved every single one! Svetlana made us feel comfortable at our engagement session and truly captured us. She listened to what we want and didn't want, and truly made it a unique experience. My bridals were absolutely beautiful, and she recommended a wonderful setting for exactly what we wanted. Our wedding was a foggy day in February and I was so worried that the pictures would not turn out. She set me at ease and I still receive so many compliments on our wedding pictures. More than that, she was a friend throughout it all. She was always making us feel comfortable and assuring she got pictures of what we wanted. Her turn around to get the pictures back to us was very quick. Every single picture she chose was perfect, and she took the time to sort through the pictures to provide us with the very best. You only have one chance to capture this special moment in your life, so wedding photography was very important to me. I am so thrilled we went with Svetlana, after lots of research. I happily recommend her to anyone I know!

    Svetlana Photography was so amazing. When I first met her, she was so sweet and easy to work with. She did a wonderful job on my wedding day. She has the talent to see an amazing photo opportunity and she makes the most out of it. I'm so lucky to have found her. I had a beautiful wedding, and she captured the special moments on my wedding day. I want to thank Svetlana for being there for me. She was the reason why my wedding was so perfect.

    Svetlana is awesome! Her work is amazing and she was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. She was very knowledgeable about our venue (Villa Antonia) and she had good suggestions for our pictures. We did an engagement session which was great to get to know each other. We were so excited to get our pictures back and we LOVED all of them! We ordered a wedding album from her and it turned out amazing! She's very professional, easy to get in touch with and fun to work with! Definitely recommend her!
