“Andrew and I would like to thank you so much for making us feel so comfortable doing our photos and for being so fun taking them! Thank you so much for taking the time going all the way out to painted hills to do our engagement photos!! Thank you for going above and beyond with capturing everyone at the wedding, and every beautiful moment! We are so pleased with how all the photos turned out! We have received so many compliments with them!”

“We picked Viktoriya to shoot our wedding photos for a number of reasons- we loved her style of photography and natural lighting, she was willing to work within our budget, and she was very receptive to all our questions and requests. We also really wanted to support a local and independent small business owner- and we are so glad we found Viktoriya! She was easy to communicate with leading up to the wedding and also was proactive in reaching out to us right ahead of the wedding in order to make sure she understood what we were looking for in our photos. She arrived early and was set up with all her equipment in plenty of time, and she even brought an assistant to help her throughout the day. She started by taking photos of all the small details of our day, which I am so glad to have as we barely had a second to look at them ahead of the ceremony. She spent time with both the bridesmaids and groomsmen while we were getting ready and she got some really fun and special shots, which we also appreciated since that was our one concern with having only one photographer. She also helped facilitate our timeline for the day to make sure we were able to capture the photos we had requested. She even facilitated our huge, unorganized family in order to get a large group shot that we asked for in the moment- some of our favorite photos of the day! What really made Viktoriya our favorite vendor of the day was that she offered to take extra photos, after the wedding, for us when the scenery wasn’t what the venue had implied in their advertising. We were so disappointed that Mt Hood wasn’t visible like our venue had advertised, and since we had booked in the winter (Hello Oregon clouds!) we were fully expecting it to be visible in August. It was no where close to what they had advertised, and Viktoriya took another afternoon out of her busy schedule to shoot the most amazing portraits for us! We can’t thank her enough for the extra effort- the portraits from our second session are our favorite photos and are totally ‘us!’ She still went above and beyond that by taking more photos of a special handmade sign that we had asked our wedding planner to put up at our reception but that had been forgotten. She included a beautiful display box with some complimentary prints when she delivered our photos. We were beyond impressed with Viktoriya and will definitely book her for our next big milestone!”
