    Dream Photographer!

    If you're seeking a wedding photographer and videography team that goes above and beyond, look no further than Valiko & his dynamic trio of videographers, Alex, Ana & Anatoly. Our wedding, set against a breathtaking beachfront venue in Punta Cana, was made even more magical thanks to their exceptional talent and dedication.

    From the initial contact, Valiko's professionalism and responsiveness were evident. He swiftly addressed all our queries and provided transparent explanations of pricing and the day's schedule. Moreover, his extensive knowledge of Punta Cana's venues proved invaluable, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish.

    On the day itself, the entire team exuded warmth, punctuality, and professionalism. They seamlessly integrated into the festivities, capturing every precious moment with ease and grace. Their approach was not only skillful but also personable, making us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the day.

    The photographs and wedding video exceeded our wildest expectations. Each image and frame is a masterpiece, immortalizing the love, joy, and beauty of our special day. Valiko, Alex, Ana, and Anatoly have an incredible eye for detail, effortlessly capturing the essence of our love story in every shot.

    However, what truly set them apart, was their innovative live stream service. When my father, unfortunately, couldn't attend due to a medical emergency, we opted to include the live stream option. Little did we know, it would become one of the most poignant aspects of our wedding day.

    Watching the live stream brought tears to our eyes as it beautifully unfolded like a scripted movie, capturing every emotion, vow, and heartfelt moment. It was as if our absent loved ones were right there beside us, sharing in the joy and love of the occasion.

    In the end, we're not just grateful for the stunning photographs and videos; we're thankful for the memories they've preserved and the moments they've allowed us to relive again and again. Valiko, Alex, Ana, and Anatoly, you are true artists, and we are forever indebted to you for immortalizing our love story with such grace and passion.

    For couples considering their services, don't hesitate. Valiko & team are not just photographers and videographers; they are memory-makers, storytellers, and dreamweavers. Trust them to capture your special day, and you'll be left with treasures to cherish for a lifetime. Thank you from the depths of our hearts.

    We highly recommend him to anyone!

    Valiko was such a delight to work with. He was responsive, flexible, and accommodating to all of our needs on our big day. We originally had talked about him leaving after the first dances, but he ended up staying until our sparkler send off a few hours later for no extra charge! I am extremely happy that he did, as those are some of our favorite photos. We are very satisfied with our photos and overall experience with Valiko. We highly recommend him to anyone in the area looking for a reliable, and friendly photographer! Thank you Valiko!

    HIGHLY recommend !

    We had the great opportunity to work with Valiko Proskurnin Photography recently. I will describe the experience in 3 words.....BEST PHOTOGRAPHER EVER! We were very pleased with Valiko and his photography of our wedding. We happened to find Valiko online after our first photographer backed out to shoot another wedding, just weeks before the date. We both work and Valiko was gracious enough to meet with us late in the evening. We were very lucky that he had our date available, because this guy books up fast! After seeing his work, I'm not surprised. He showed up right on time and shot non-stop throughout our big day. This guy works extremely hard, I don't know where he gets his energy. He has fantastic ideas for poses too. We were extremely blessed to find Valiko Proskurnin on such short notice and we are happy we did. He definitely should have been our first choice, we now know. We will never make that mistake again. My wife and I both would HIGHLY recommend Valiko Proskurnin Photography to anyone. Thank you, Valiko!

    Amazing Wedding Photography

    Val was an absolute dream to work with! He is polite, helpful, thoughtful, and just overall a joy to be around. His photography skills are excellent, and he made it feel like he was a part of our family on our very important day. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer, and highly recommend him for your special day! We love our pictures and will cherish them forever.

    Valiko is a wedding photography master

    We are beyond grateful we found Valiko for our wedding photography. He captured every moment, every detail so perfectly and his photos tell a story, and truly make you feel like you’re re-living the day over again. Valiko was incredibly patient and reassuring for us throughout the day, and really made us feel comfortable posing. Our photos turned out beautifully and we couldn’t be happier.

    Excellent photographer

    My daughter got married this summer in New Milford, NJ, and through her own research found Valiko Proskurnin, and we all loved his past work. As a photography enthusiast, I can attest to the very high quality photos that Valiko produces. His work is outright gorgeous, both from an artistic and technical point of view, as well as being able to tell beautiful stories from the wedding day, while evoking strong emotions. When you watch his photos, you can see that he is a true artist, who loves what he does and who will go the extra mile to produce that very special piece of memory. If all you want are photos of the wedding party, family and guests posing, get a more generic photographer. However, if you want photos of this very special day that you would want to admire and cherish over and over for the rest of your life, Valiko is a great choice. The only dilemma we have now is to choose from the hundreds of fantastic photos for our prints and books!
    Valiko is also a nice and easy person to work with, accommodating while being full of creative ideas. I couldn't recommend Valiko more!

    The best photographer I’ve ever dealt with

    Valiko Proskurnin was the perfect choice or our wedding. Valiko met with us four times before the wedding and was kind, polite, and helpful each time. He allowed us the freedom to make four payments toward our total before the wedding, which helped us in budgeting for other things.
    We had a great time doing our engagement photos with him, and they looked great. He was willing to go to two separate locations to photograph. On wedding day, he was the first person to arrive at the venue. My wife and I got ready in two separate locations about a mile apart, and Valiko went back and forth between these locations to get pictures while we got ready and the bridal party started showing up. He was upbeat, helpful, funny, and courteous all day long. His photography of the wedding itself and the reception was excellent. Every shot we could have wanted, Valiko got it. One of my guests, as Valiko walked by us to take a picture of something commented, "he has not stopped taking pictures for a minute." That's pretty accurate. He did not stop until the bride and I left, and by then it was just Valiko, a couple guests, and the bridal party. We were very happy with the results.

They took pictures I would have never of thought to take, which are some of the best pictures of the whole night! Perfect quality and memorable photos! I get so many compliments on every picture of my wedding book i got from the too!

    Absolutely Fantastic!!

    Highly recommend using Valiko as an engagement and wedding photographer. We could not be more in love with the photos, and Valiko was an absolute blast to work with. He listened to what we wanted and went above and beyond our expectations. Valiko was also extremely helpful throughout the wedding day and was more than willing to jump in and assist with whatever we needed. We cannot say enough great things about Valiko or his work. We are so thankful we chose him as our photographer!

    We are super satisfied with the final product. Thank you Valiko and team!

    Valiko and his team were incredibly supportive, punctual, and respectful. Even before our big day, Valiko met with us via zoom to make sure we were on the same page. He made sure all of our requests were met and went above and beyond during our big day. On the day of our wedding, Valiko and his team arrived on time to the hotel where the wedding party was getting ready. He needed little direction and would set up any item (rings, details, etc) and have a grand photo shoot for it. We were absolutely impressed with his calm demeanor and ability to lead his helpful team. Our pictures took about 1.5 months to retrieve but we're excited when he sent a sneak preview the day after our wedding. It was a long anticipated wait but we are beyond happy with the outcome. We can't choose one! Valiko, thank you so much for making our special day so memorable. We will forever appreciate your willingness to take direction and carefree attitude to make sure all our needs were met. We recommended Valiko and his team to our friends as they were also extremely happy with their services. We would absolutely work with Valiko again! We are super satisfied with the final product. Thank you Valiko and team!

    Valiko is amazing!


    Valiko is amazing! While my husband did most of the coordinating with him, we both could not be happier with him and his photos. We loved meeting up with him before the wedding - it definitely put us at ease after having a chance to meet with him and just hang out. He is nice, kind and cares a lot of about the work he does. Our photos are beyond beautiful and we felt like we relived the entire day while looking through them. He was able to capture our personalities and those of our guests. I would highly recommend him and we hope we have an excuse to book him again!

    I highly recommend Valiko Proskurnin Studio!

    Valiko not only did our wedding pictures but also our engagement pictures and videography at the wedding. Was there for everything and got pictures not only of my husband and I but also plenty of the family, friends and wedding party. He was there for the rehearsal, set up and wedding day for many hours. Never complained about the tons of pictures I wanted. I couldn't have asked for a better, personal photographer on our wedding day! He also got our pictures to us very fast! Thank you for all your hard work! I highly recommend Valiko Proskurnin Studio!

    Valiko was an amazing person to work with! We live out of state and he was available any time we needed. He was early to the wedding and had an amazing attitude. My guests complimented how he seemed just as happy for us as we were! The pictures all turned out amazing and I look forward to working with him again!!

    Stunning Photos, Awesome Day!

    There are not enough words to describe how spectacular Valiko was as our wedding photographer. I was able to book him early and Valiko has been in constant communication. Because we were extremely uncomfortable in front of a camera, we wanted someone that we felt comfortable in front of and after interviewing some photographers, I knew Valiko was the one. I was so lucky to have come across his Instagram page! We had our rehearsal dinner/welcome party and Valiko was willing to shoot photos of everyone with both headshots and family photos. We opted for this instead of engagement photos and Valiko was extremely accommodating and was also extremely flexible with scheduling. On our actual wedding day, I think Valiko was the reason we felt comfortable leading to the ceremony if not the entire night. He was able to direct us in how to pose for the photos and had an eye for the camera like no other. My husband is even more shy of the camera and he felt very comfortable with Valiko's guidance. Valiko took many, many photos and this is when I lead to the part where we receive both the sneak peeks and the entire wedding gallery... WOW. When I say wow, Valiko really outdid himself with all of our wedding photos. He not only made us look decent (lol) but was able to capture some of the most amazing moments including our family members, friends, and other attendees. We received some of the highest of compliments on our wedding photos. Not only that, we received compliments of our photographers in general and how friendly and easy-going they were.
    We have the most beautiful wedding photos that we will continue to look back on for the rest of our lives. Our families and friends raved about Valiko's work. 1000000% recommend.
    We are so lucky to have snagged you as our photographer and have enjoyed working with you. We can't wait to recommend you to family and friends. All the best, Meaghan E & Philip L

    A genuinely great person who does genuinely great work!

    Val was an amazing photographer on our special day. He beautifully captured our day in really special candid moments. His vibe is very light and natural (natural to the eye, he put it) and loved that we got to see real emotion through our photos. He was very comfortable to be around and honestly had a lot of fun with him through out the whole day’s experience! I would highly recommend Val to friends and shoot with him again for future photoshoots.

    Stunning photos & great experience!

    Can’t go wrong with Valiko Proskurnin. Not only have I had the privilege to work along side him but I’ve had the extreme pleasure to have him photograph my elopement and my family session. When you book Valiko, you get a photographer who learns about you as a couple or family. Creates an artistic experience unlike any other. Your photos will be exquisite and timeless at the same time. He’s extremely creative and your photos won’t look like everyone else’s. They will be fresh and exciting. He captures precious moments in that lens that you didn’t even realize took place. His eye is top notch. He’s warm and kind and a delight to have as your photographer. I love his work. I love him as a person and you won’t be disappointed, ever.
