Hi! Welcome! Here you will find feedback from my previous “clients”. To be honest, I hate saying “clients” and more leaning towards “friends”, because I have never had “a client” that I wouldn’t care about, I met so many wonderful people through photography and we are keeping in touch for many years.. I captured their surprise proposals, weddings, pregnancies, their newborn babies, and family gatherings. I feel very honored to be trusted with such important thing- capturing history of their families.
When I moved from VA (where I lived 3 years) to FL, I drove 20 hours almost every three weeks to capture my “friends”❤️ Yes, I was getting paid, but it was never the reason I am doing photography! I sincerely care and love my “clients”.
“A client” sounds too materialistic to me, like someone that you have once and forget about. I sincerely care about each person I have ever worked with and always make sure they are happy with our work.
On this page you will see older reviews from when I didn’t care about social medias too much and “clients” were sharing their feedback though my website. You can see over 100 recent reviews on Facebook and Instagram.
family and newborn
I arranged a Family Photoshoot with Anastasia and we had a great experience! She has an eye for good locations and interesting shots. She was very responsive to my messages and questions and rather flexible with respect to dates and times. She delivered the pictures very fast and I loved the quality. My 1.5-year-old liked her as well – she brought a large stuffed elephant and a bubble machine to the shoot and kept her entertained by making funny animal noises!
We LOVED our pictures. It was a quick shot with so many pictures and she even managed to cover the mess my hairdresser had created Looking forward to the next shot!
My family had a wonderful experience with Anastasia! She worked with our schedule to ensure that we could have great photos. Fall photo shoots are often hard to schedule due to the unpredictability of the weather. Five minutes into taking photos, the drizzling rain started. Anastasia waited with us for it to stop, knowing that we will not be able to see her at another time. She also worked great with my little one, who is not a big fan of posing for the photos. Photos turned out great, with the perfect color scheme, not stagnant, and looked very alive. She was able to catch the mood of family and Fall atmosphere in the Middleburg. We will surely be back for the newborn photo shoot in January!
I loved the whole experience! As a mom of two, I understand how hard it is to keep little ones entertained and busy while taking pictures! There were many props which I loved as well as being open to any suggestions as well. Very professional, friendly and genuine! Thank you so much for all the memories you captured, my family and I loved them!
I give her 5 stars Anastasia is amazing. She is passionate about her work and does an amazing job she will edit and email your photos in a timely manner. She is kind, sweet, hardworking, very patient especially with those of us with kids.
Anastasia was great during our recent newborn session. She was responsive to and after the initial inquiry, arrived slightly early the day of the session and was patient and accommodating throughout the session. She even stayed a couple hours past the allocated time to ensure she got good shots since it took our 10-day old baby longer to fall asleep and not be fussy. All in all, she delivered some good quality pictures that I’ll cherish forever!
Anastasia took our fall mini-session family photos and we couldn’t be happier! She was super prepared (she came with a bubble machine which our 2 year old LOVED), and made the session fun for everyone. She got our pictures back very quickly and was amazing to work with. We absolutely love the photos and can’t wait to use her again!
Anastasia proved to be a masterful photographer providing my wife and me beautiful maternity and newborn photos. She diligently planned both photo-shoots and fostered a fun and memorable experience. Specifically, she knew of all the picturesque spots in Old Town Alexandria for the maternity photos and suitable props that worked nicely for the newborn photos. We also appreciated her punctuality for the appointments and quick delivery of the photos. I highly recommend Anastasia and am confident in her abilities to handle any photography job.
I was worried about an outdoor Family Photo Shoot with our 18-month daughter. She is hard to photograph, does not stay still and gets bored quickly. I haven’t excepted much of it. But really wanted beautiful photos with all three of us. Anastasia definitely planned things out, she came prepared, had props, tools, didn’t spent any time figuring out the scenery and light. She was telling us exactly where to stand and what to do. It was so helpful. We never spent much time in one location. Which was great for the baby, it was like walking in the park for her, without being kept still for too long. She didn’t really get fussy, it was very natural. Anastasia kelp our daughter entertained, knew how to get her attention. She is so easy to work with. Sweet and friendly with kids. We felt very comfortable and didn’t feel any pressure. Very professional from the beginning till the end. Photos turned out so beautiful, great light, scenery, colors. They look very natural, Anastasia was able to capture our real emotions. We had a great experience. Thank you!
We had a great experience working with Anastasia! She was patient with our toddler and infant, and we ended up with many wonderful pictures. We highly recommend her!
I scheduled a session for our newborn which also included a whole family. Anastasia had exactly the photography style that I was looking for. Working with her was very easy and enjoyable. Even the rest of the family didn’t mind posing for some shots. Posing to her photos was not exactly what you would expect. The photos are dynamic and at the moment so posing is about doing something fun and being natural. The pictures turned out great. I love looking back at them and every time I do they put a smile on my face. I will certainly use her again in the future and would highly recommend to others. Great job!
Anastasia was great! Our family photo shoot involved three people, including one at least one who doesn’t particularly like to have his picture taken, and two animals, who are not easy to control. But Anastasia handled it all with grace and professionalism. The whole family really enjoyed the photo session. And the pictures turned out great. She knew just how to set up the shots so we’d end up with great pictures. We got great family photos, as well as professional head shots that we will be using for work. In addition, her fee was very reasonable and she completed the work in record time. We’re very happy we hired her!
WEDDING AND ENGAGEMENT
Ana is a lovely person and gels easily. Pictures turned out to be great and I’m in love with every picture she clicked. She was not tired clicking our pictures but we were! Strongly recommend IAMphotographyusa.
It’s a miracle what we got from Anastasia! Our 5th Anniversary photoshoot is over all the expectations! It’s just so us, but on the other hand, a bit different us – beautiful and harmonious! She not only felt our ideas and offered her creative ones, but fine-tuned all of them to create these unique photo stories, which are so well balanced with the place, our looks, and personalities! It was such a pleasure working with this talented photographer and we hope to repeat it again in the future!
WOW ANASTASIA!!! Thank you SO MUCH for capturing our wedding. The photos are absolutely beautiful, exactly what I’d hoped for!! We have looked at them so many times, we could not be happier. You have a true talent! WOW!!! Both Michael and I cried when we saw the First Look photos. Then we showed them to my family, and they cried too. I was nervous about seeing him before the wedding, but we were able to have our own special moment, where he was able to react freely. Your photos were the proof that we made the right decision. I will be able to remember that moment long after my memory fades. I just love it, and can not thank you enough for giving us that gift.
We were a little unorthodox in our planning to join in marriage, and Anna was great in accommodating and capturing this moment and memory. She was patient with our crazy family of photographers and produced beautiful photos to help us relive our day forever. Thank you, Anna, for being so professional!
Anastasia is amazing, we loved working with her! She is very professional from little details, like helping with the right outfit, to big details, like turning simple things around us into beautiful backgrounds in our pictures. Anastasia is a kind, funny, and friendly person who makes the whole photo shoot a very easy-going process. She makes you feel comfortable from the first minute of the photo shoot, which might be very helpful to someone who doesn’t have photo sessions regularly and feels a bit shy in front of a camera. We were truly impressed with the quality of pictures! Thank you so much, Anastasia, we really appreciate you being with us on our special day!
Anastasia was trusted as our wedding photographer and we’re happy we chose her! She was very patient with us throughout the day. Even though we were very busy, she was able to take really creative photos and we are thrilled with the results! Our guests also complemented her ability to work with the group. As a real professional, she captured a lot of great moments from our big day. Thank you, Anastasia!
It was so good working with Anastasia! She s a wonderful photographer, my husband and I enjoyed working with her and we love the photos! Totally recommend!
Anastasia took photos of my husband and me for our 5 year wedding anniversary during a trip to Washington D.C.. We took photographs around various monuments and locations on the National Mall as well as photos with nature backdrops. My husband and I had a lot of fun doing it and felt very comfortable with Anastasia as she has such a sweet and warm personality! She was willing to walk around for us wherever we wanted to get a nice shot and she had many good suggestions as well. We got our photos a week after the session and absolutely loved them! She captured our relationship well and we are so happy to have chosen her to photograph us!
portrait, branding, AND EVENT
I really don’t like to have my picture taken, but I needed a few good headshots for business, etc. I was pleasantly surprised by the outcome. The photographer was so creative, professional, and made me feel comfortable in front of the camera. I had a wonderful time! I am going to tell all my friends where to go for all their photo needs.
Anastasia was really amazing! I got lost and was slightly late to the shoot and she didn’t mind at all. She is really creative and comes with amazing props should you need them. She was really patient with my models and help them ease into the shoot. Definitely going to use her again!
Anastasia is a natural with children’s photography. She took my daughter’s 1-year birthday pictures and they turned out beautiful. I was initially worried because my daughter was in the stranger anxiety phase and I expected it to be all tears and no smiles. However, Anastasia was very warm, patient, playful and knew how to get my daughter’s attention, resulting in great shots of her and the family. I plan to have Anastasia capture many more memorable memories of my family. I highly recommend her work and her customer service. She was punctual, gave us good direction during the photography session and had nice picture props which were great!
I needed some portfolio pictures for my interior design company. She was very thorough and captured a true reflection of my interior design project showing different angles. I was also very pleased with the quality of the pictures delivered!
I am leading a fashion blog and was needed some cool pictures so I hired Anastasia to make it happen. Anastasia is a delightful photographer with so much energy and love spreading around! She will make you laugh, smile, will revive you and make you dance (even if you do not know how to)! We had so much fun on the shoot and I also could not be happier with the result! She delivered professional high-quality photos, full of emotions and creativity. Definitely going to use for all my future projects! Thank you so much!
Cannot recommend highly enough! Anastasia was one of the hardest working photographers I have ever met. I hired her to support my company holiday party that I coordinated. I had a million details to take care of, but Anastasia was on the ball and required little to no support. She immediately went to work at the event and took GREAT pictures without “hovering” or getting in the way. Afterward, I received many compliments from our guests about her friendly demeanor and the fact that she always getting great shots. We had great communication before the event and while there, she was flexible in meeting everyone’s photo needs. We were thrilled with the quality of the photos and she delivered them very quickly. I would rate her 10 out of 10.
