Samuel and Luwam are easily two of the most fun clients we have ever had. It is nearly impossible to be around them and not to smile. Photo session was easy and natural. I love almost all photos from that day and it is hard to select my favorite…
Here are some of them:
This photo is just amazing…Thank you, Lyosha!!!
This one was taken by Lyosha too I love how you used the light….

Yesterday we spent wonderful time on the beach shooting Chris and Suzanne’s engagement session. Chris and Susanne came for the shoot with their little cute friend who made us laughing all the time.
It was perfect symbioses of the great place, wonderful weather and a beautiful couple! They are both very interesting persons and supplement each other. She is an art teacher, she knows how to create the beauty and the harmony….He loves flying, surfing, skiing, aerial photography, travel and adventures. They are radiate happiness and they are so much in love!!!
It is hard to explain using words – So here are my favotite photos and Slide show from Chris + Suzanne e-session :

I just don't understand why would anybody pass an opportunity to hire Yuka for their wedding photography here, especially here in Buffalo. It is NYC level of craftsmanship and it is here, in Buffalo!
I love the slide show very much, the music diffused in these photos make it a magical combination! I feel like I went to the movies and saw a very special romantic movie. Great job! And a very cute third character in the photo shot.

the best i've ever seen,,,,, the two nicest people I know!
We planned our Engagement photo shoot with Andrew and Erin a long time ago, but rainy weather made us to reschedule meeting day after day.
Their wedding day is right around the corner but we still decided to make the session anyway. Lucky we! Andrew and Erin have chosen just perfect outdoor location for their Engagement shooting. It was the most wonderful day and weather cooperated with us also.
Dear Andrew and Erin, thank you for great time!
We can not wait for your beautiful Wedding day.
Do not forget to check SLIDE SHOW below!!!!!

beautiful work & couple here!
Today I would like to share with you my new multimedia instrument to give my clients a virtually real feel to move thru my albums.
Check my first Guest book designed for Nick and Susan for their reception HERE…
We had gone back and forth a few times about which day and time to shoot because the weather was cold all week. Finally it got sunny and wArm and we met last Saturday for engagement session. Aroma Café was a great spot for morning get-together! As always we came early and then Nick showed up but the most interesting part of this- he walked towards us alone…… When we asked where Susan was, he explained that her dress was damaged and she was looking for some thing other in her clothes. Susan came 5 min latter and I was so glad, she wasn’t upset too much about this nuisance and looked so beautiful and cheerful. Actually, I would like to say couple words about how they met. It was like in a movie…very designing story !
They both came to the bar for date…He with another girl and she - with other guy, going on a blind date. There was something “hooligany” in Nick’s mood that day, and he decided to go ahead and, actually interrupt Susan’s blind date by ending his date, following her and than asking her to step aside and possibly giving him her phone number. How daring is that? Well, it payed off, since they are getting married now, and it is not even 2 years since that historic night!
Nick and Susan are just so sweet together!!! Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day:

I am floored by some of the details photos, like the hand reflection in the water, green door portrait, glass reflection with hands, Buffalo scape, jeans portrait, especially laying on the bench, the heart-shaped hands, grass background for holding hands, the black and white ring show-off! Makes me want to continue our rain-interrupted session with so many more ideas and triple energy!
Before i am going to Toronto to workshop, I would like to share with you photos from engagement session which I took on Thursday. (I know, Yuliya you are checking my blog and waiting for this moment )
I love e-sessions for the opportunity to capture a unique moments of the love story…I love e-sessions for irresistible emotions showing between two people in love…. I love e-sessions for the joy and great time spent with couples, who put trust in me to be their “story teller” It’s amazing being able to be a part of such warm moments.
Yuliya and Michael know each other almost 3 years. They are so cute couple. We met together afternoon and went to downtown of Buffalo where we found so many beautiful places for photo shoot. The main event was to get to City Hall’s 25th floor. We were on top of the city! Amazing panorama opened in front of us! You can see everything for miles. This was a place where Michael “popped the question” !!!!! We started here, at this place. I cannot express how beautiful and romantic it was…
Check back in a couple days to see more pics on a slide show
I wrote in my previous post that I am so blessed meeting great people in my life, so these guys are from this list…
Elena and Andrei are the main heroes of my last photo shoot.
Usually people don’t believe in such stories, but I do… Elena and Andrei went to the same University in Minsk (Belarus) but their LOVE story starts when they met each other here, in Buffalo, NY.I can say it is a fact, but some times we need to fly across the ocean to find our love…
Life is full of surprises!
We became close friends from the moment we met each other. Elena is very creative and energetic person. She always inspires me to try something new and she provides so much help in my photography business.
Elena, just being around people like you makes me feel lucky, I am thankful for this!
I think these photographs highlighting their love and personality better then any words:
It was much fun today morning! I had a big privilege to shoot our friends Elena and Andrey…..
I’ll post more words and photos on Monday. And today I will share with you just a bit:

We love them!!! Can't wait to see more and also can't wait to pose more for this new lens! The pictures came out really beautiful! Very-very nice job, Yulka! I think anybody can see how talented you are, but nobody can appreciate your talent completely and fully until they try your services themselves. The appreciation will come after they see the result of hours of wondering around town, posing in spontaneous spots, laughing, jumping, making faces, drinking coffee... Thank you very much! Can't wait to see the rest!
YuliyaMay 6th, 2008
Thank you Len! I almost ready to show you the rest story of the shoot :-)
