Volodymyr Ivash Photographer | Reviews

AMAZING team!! The attention to detail and creativity displayed in the final wedding video is nothing short of phenomenal. Ivash and his team captured the essence of our love and the joy of our celebration with an artistry that is truly commendable. Every frame seemed to tell a story, and each moment was beautifully crafted to create a seamless, emotional narrative. If you're looking for a videographer who goes above and beyond to capture the magic of your special day, look no further than Ivash. They are not just videographers; they are storytellers who have a rare talent for turning moments into memories.

Our wedding day on 8/12/2023 at The Ravel Hotel was nothing short of a fairy tale, and much of the enchantment was captured through the lens of the incredibly talented Volo from Ivash Photography.

From the very beginning, Volo demonstrated a profound understanding of our vision. We opted for an editorial, fine art style, and he not only embraced the challenge but exceeded our wildest expectations. The first look photoshoot at the iconic New York Public Library was nothing short of magical, with each frame telling a story of its own.

What sets Volo apart is not just his technical expertise, but his ability to create an atmosphere that allowed us to be ourselves in front of the camera. He provided ample direction, making even the most intricate poses feel effortless. His creativity knew no bounds, and we were delighted with the variety of shots that showcased his artistic flair.

One of the standout qualities of Volo is his genuine passion for his craft. It was evident from the moment he started capturing our special moments. His infectious enthusiasm made the entire process enjoyable, and we never felt like we were just subjects in a photograph but active participants in the creation of lasting memories.

The final collection of photographs delivered by Volo surpassed our expectations. Each image was a masterpiece, reflecting the essence of our love and the joyous celebration of our union. The attention to detail, the play of light and shadow, and the overall composition showcased Volo's commitment to excellence.

If you're seeking someone who can turn your wedding day into a visual masterpiece, look no further than Volo. His professionalism, creativity, and passion for his craft make him a standout choice for capturing life's most precious moments. We are eternally grateful for the stunning memories he has given us, and we wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking an exceptional photographer.

Sincerely,
Karla and Josin

The short version: We have nothing but positive things to say and would recommend them to anyone!

And if you are feeling up to it, the long version:
We were so nervous. I was tired from lack of sleep for many days, and many people had worn me down leading up to the wedding day. I was nervous about how everything would turn out and hurt by disapproving comments family had made. I was grieving because my mother wasn't with us for this special day, and a bit heartbroken, because we couldn't afford a nice venue, make up, hair, DJ, or anything extra, putting a lot of hope into our photographers. Just one hour prior to the photographers arriving, I was setting up our venue. I was nervous because we are not models. We are just average people. We don't know how to pose, how to adjust or what looks good in a photo. I am not a very young bride; I can see and feel how life has worn me down…and I feared this would translate into the photos.
Despite all of this, our photographers (Valentine & Ina) made me feel comfortable and calm. They both had a lovely presence, and everyone commented on how nice they were.  They took beautiful photos, which is amazing considering how stressed and sleep deprived I was! It was really incredible to see them work, and they were very respectful during the ceremony. Our venue wasn’t very pretty, but the way they photographed things you wouldn’t know! Our photographers worked so hard to help us find a place to take photos after the ceremony, which was so appreciated. Even when it was difficult to gather everyone in for photos, they were so very patient. From the first contact to delivering our photos, IVASH photography was nothing short of professional. They captured moments of our day that we didn’t even know were there! We have so many beautiful photos that we love, and we are so very grateful that they were a part of our special day <3 We would recommend them to anyone!

We are so very grateful for the exceptional service provided by IVASH Photography.  Volodymyr exhibited remarkable dedication and skill in documenting every cherished moment of our wedding celebrations across three eventful days. Despite the challenges that we put on him, his expertise and professionalism were evident throughout. Collaborating with him was a true delight, and we wholeheartedly endorse him for any significant occasion. Our friends and family were equally impressed with the quality of the photographs. We consider ourselves extremely fortunate to have had the chance to work with him. A heartfelt thank you!

Volo and his team are so talented! I really appreciated his dedication to get the perfect shot and execute our vision. I am so happy that I went with him as my photographer for my wedding. I can’t say enough great things about his work and how nice his entire team is! The pictures were so creative and absolutely stunning! Volo truly has a gift. We have received so many compliments about his pictures from friends and family. I highly highly recommend him for any special event!

My husband, Marvin, and I could not be happier with our experience with Volvo and the entire Ivash Studio team. We made the right decision by choosing Ivash Photography for our wedding photography AND videography. The entire team did such a phenomenal job. The photography is breathtaking and we knew our wedding photos would turn out beautiful. During the wedding week, Volvo and his team were SO fun to work with and Volvo himself is super talented.
It’s one thing to love your own vendor, but to have so many of our guests rave about his team, professionalism, talent and personality is just another validation in our decision to go with Volvo. They not only understand the cultural aspects of events to capture but also made sure we meet our very own expectations of having beautiful couple and family portraits.
We highly recommend Ivash Studio as a MUST in your big moments and you will not regret that decision. Ivash has an artistic eye to everything which includes a professional insight of poses that they ask you to do (wedding in my case), to photo lighting, and much more. In addition, their approach is not just about taking the best photos—it’s also about how the team makes you feel. We felt at ease when it came to all the shots done by Ivash studio and felt so comfortable to be ourselves and enjoy one of the best days we could have ever imagined. Wedding photos last forever and I am grateful we trusted Ivash Photography with such an important task of ours.

With love,
Marvin & Pooja
