Natalia, Accountant

We have used Galina to take family photos and Galina has been wonderful to work with. We have had her shoot outside in the Park.

Galina was very patient about letting my 1 year old son warm up to her. She was very accommodating with any ideas or requests we had and was very patient working with my 3 year old daughter. She is very easy-going and great with kids.

All of our pictures have turned out great and we always get compliments on how beautiful the photos are. Galina is also very helpful when it comes to deciding what to order once we viewed the photos. We have been completely satisfied with all the products we have ordered through Galina.

I would highly recommend Galina and plan to keep using her in the future to document our family moments.

Galina, it was a pleasure to work with you again. It was really a very pleasant experience. You created such a relaxing atmosphere for our whole family that the whole process was really exciting. 

I’m not usually photogenic, but you have a good eye. You were able to capture the moment and the pictures turned out to be natural and lively. We are satisfied with the quality of the photos: even large sizes look great!

We look forward to our next session.

It was a great experience, we had a blast! Creating wonderful memories through beautifully vivid pictures from a talented photographer, with a terrific personality, and a good eye for creativity. Galina made us feel comfortable during the whole process, even making our precious dogs feel included and at ease. 🦮🐶. Thank you so much Galina for all of your precious time, and kind efforts. We feel truly blessed to have such a creative and talented friend to captivate precious moments with such raw and unique imagination. Thank you! Thank You! Thank You! 🤟😘

Wow! Galina did such an amazing job! She is skilled taking photos but also making people feel at ease in front of a camera. My fiance and I are not used to getting our photos taken, especially professionally. In front of a camera we tend to turn awkward. And therefore, we look awkward. Galina communicated with us, asked us where we’d be comfortable (we chose an ice rink❄️), and made us feel relaxed in front of the camera. Our photos ended up being better than we ever expected -! natural smiles & genuine laughter — and I’m very pleased. She’s very professional, but still creates a relaxed, easy going environment. One of the last things I really appreciated is that she gave us a good mix of candid and posed photos. I love them! I would recommend Galina to anyone getting professional photos done, you’ll love the results.

Galina, thank you so much for the wonderful work and live shots that conveyed our mood.

In fact, my husband and I do not know how to pose and do not like to be photographed, so we feel very uncomfortable at photo shoots. But you managed to relax us and we were able to feel comfortable. 

Galina, special thanks to you for being very responsive, helping and suggesting how best to pose, where to look, how to stand, etc. We are very grateful to you that you were able to capture our real emotions, but most importantly — real expressions of ourselves…You are really a professional. As a result, we got a lot of pleasant impressions from the atmosphere and working with you. 

The result was not long in coming and exceeded all our expectations.

This wonderful day has remained not only in our memory, but also in wonderful photos that we are happy to review and show to our friends and relatives. I highly recommend Galina if you are looking for a photographer for a family photo shoot! 

Galina, Kindergarten Teacher

Galina, this family photo walk during apple picking at the orchard and around the Picton area turned out only thanks to your advice, distracting conversations and jokes.

We rarely take pictures for us, because I feel uncomfortable in front of the camera and consider myself very non-photogenic. But in front of your camera, I felt much freer and the photos that turned out completely coincided with our expectations and requests. Everything was natural and organic. You caught all the right moments. Your advice in choosing clothes turned out to be really very useful. 

Thank you sincerely. I hope that we will be able to repeat this experience next year during the long weekend. I will recommend you to all my friends and colleagues.

Galina was a photographer at a friend’s baby shower and ended up also taking some photos of my husband and I as guests at the event. I was very happy with the results! 

She had good ideas in terms of poses and made us feel comfortable. We are both not very comfortable with photo shoots and typically wouldn’t do any official photo sessions. However, Galina gently persuaded us to try and we were really happy that we did! The pictures turned out beautifully and Galina was very quick to edit and send us the finals.

She’s a hard worker and passionate about the work that she does! Thank you Galina! :)
