- What was your favorite wedding photo? I had an extremely long veil and in an outdoor shot Boris snapped an amazing photo of it blowing across my husband and I. He then had someone else hold the veil up and across us which resulted in the photo that is the front page of our album.
- How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits? The only time I noticed that Boris was really around was when we were doing the staged photos at the church. All of our attendants had a blast with him as well, as the photographer, which made staged photos go smoothly and quickly. He had plenty of good ideas for staged photos & action photos - and listened whenever anyone else recommended a pose.
- What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers? We had already done our engagement photos before we met Boris, but we wish we wouldve done the entire package with him. We ended up ordering the 10 by 10 leather album with the pages all designed by him and it's beautiful! In addition we purchased a few 5 by 7 photos to put in some frames around our home. What I like the best was that he gave us a CD with almost 1300 photos on it to choose from. He captured every moment of the day and it was extremely so hard to pick since out photos since there were so many good ones.
- How did the photographer make you and family comfortable? I think it was just his personality that made everyone comfortable. You can tell that he enjoys what he is doing, he does it well and that results in making everyone comfortable. We also had lots of comments from guests stating that our photographer was very friendly as well.

- What was your favorite wedding photo? Every picture was our favorite picture. Boris truly has a gift when it comes to capturing emotions in an artistic way. Every person we have shown our pictures and videos to have been blown away by the beauty and creativity. If you have not decided on a photographer/videographer yet for your wedding, stop looking and contact Boris. You won't regret it.
- How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits? Both Boris and Rocky did a great job of catching all the important moments without being in the way. They gave great suggestions for the posed pictures and really knew how to make you feel beautiful and confident, and when they were doing the candid pictures you didn't even realize they were there! They have a very detailed list of pictures for you to check off before the event to ensure that you get all the pictures that you were wanting from that day and more!
- What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers? We purchased the Platinum Package for the Photography and we also purchased the Full Day shoot Videography package. We received an Engagement Session and received 100 of the photos he took in an album along with a Folio which included 1 10x10 picture and 4 5x5 pictures and 2 wallet size pictures to send to the newspaper for announcements, and a big Signature frame with our picture so all our wedding guests could sign the picture. We also received a bride and groom wedding album, 2 parent albums, and a disc with every single picture he took that day. For the videography we received 1 dvd from the ceremony and 1 dvd from the reception. If you are not planning on having a videographer at your wedding I suggest you reconsider, Rocky does amazing work!
- How did the photographer make you and family comfortable? They were great about giving compliments to make you feel like a prince and princess. I have a large family and was very impressed to see that they were able to get several shots of all the family not only looking at the camera with their eyes open, but all with smiles on their faces which is a task in itself. They are very likable people and felt like part of the family. The wedding day goes by in a blink of an eye, but thanks to Boris and Rocky we will have memories of that day that will last a lifetime!

- What was your favorite wedding photo? My favorite picture is one taken during our first dance. The lighting was perfect. We were both staring into each others eyes and smiling and in the back ground was all of our guests surrounding the dance floor all watching us and smiling. Boris really captured the moment.
- How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits? Boris did great! During our first moments he was able to capture great pictures without us even realizing he was there. During our posed photos he was very creative. He suggested some great poses of us embracing one another and also some fun and silly poses with our wedding party which really lightened the mood and allowed us to have fun with the pictures!
- What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers? I went with the second to largest package. With my package, I received the 12x12 photo album which turned out beautifully. The background of all the pages are details of our own wedding!There were packages of all sizes. Everything was priced extremely reasonable. I am very pleased with the quality and quantity of the items that I received!
- How did the photographer make you and family comfortable? Boris and I met before the wedding to discuss what family photos would be taken. He was very thorough and everything went very smoothly when it came photo time. We have a large family and Boris was very patient and able to get everyone in the pictures and smiling! Even the flower girls who are a little shy!

- What was your favorite wedding photo? One of my favorite pictures was when my husband and I saw each other for the first time on our wedding day. I had stepped out of the door and my husband turned around to see me. Boris was able to catch all the emotion and beauty of the moment.
- How did the wedding photographer avoid disrupting the day? Great with candids? Action shots? Portraits? Boris took pictures from every angle and every position, he worked witht the lighting and was able to catch all the moments for the ceremony to the reception. Whether it was posing for a full family portrait to getting the first dance. He made sure our day was documented fully.
- What was included in your wedding photo package? Albums? DVDs? Engagement pics? Two photographers? Boris has many packages, we selected the 2nd largest package with included an engagement photo session and folio, plus a signature frame for people to sign at the wedding. It also included full wedding day coverage that was not limited to a certain time limit. We received all our proof on CD and a portion were available on their website for family and friends to order. Once we had reviewed our proofs, our selections were placed in a digital photo book and on a musical DVD. This was all for 1 price.
- How did the photographer make you and family comfortable? Boris worked very hard to work quickly and make many suggestions for posing. This helped for the time to go quickly and everything to flow. He also was able to gage when people were getting impatient and moved on to something new.
