WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY IN HOUSTON
I love weddings for everything that happens beyond the ceremony itself. The excitement, the unexpected moments, the people who haven't seen each other in years, the laughter, the happy tears, and sometimes a little chaos.
My approach combines documentary photography with creative portraits. I love capturing real moments as they unfold, but I'm also happy to step in, find beautiful light, and create something special together.
I want you to enjoy your wedding day, not spend it posing for photographs. Years later, I want these images to bring back not just how everything looked, but how it felt.

Testimonials
Oh my God, I cannot express the feeling what I have working with Masha. She was working on my wedding day. We asked her come to the house as early as possible. I was in shock when she was agree to come at 5:30 am and start our photo shoot. She spend whole day with us, give us tips, recommendation.
She already have whole plan for us, which location we go, what time we need to be at that location. I’ve had work with many photographers in my life and with all confidence I can tell she’s the best!!!

Testimonials
“One day in May, in a quiet, secluded corner of the charming town of Lunz am See in Lower Austria, our truly magical celebration took place.
I want to express my endless gratitude to one incredible person who was there for us from beginning to end, through cold and rain, among the clouds and on the mountain slopes.
Masha, you are absolutely amazing! Everything turned out exactly as I had imagined, and even better! Thank you for giving us the chance to return to those moments and relive the happiness and excitement of our special day, again and again.”

FAQ
How do we book our wedding date?
Send me a message with your wedding date, location, and a few details about your plans. I'll check my availability and send you a wedding questionnaire. Based on your answers, we'll choose the package that works best for you. Once you're ready to book, I'll send you the contract and retainer invoice. Your date is officially reserved once the contract is signed and the retainer is paid.
How much is the retainer?
The retainer depends on your wedding package and is applied toward the total price. The remaining balance is due on your wedding day.
Can we add more hours to our package?
Absolutely! Additional wedding coverage is $200 per hour. If you're unsure how many hours you'll need, we can figure it out together while planning your timeline.
Do we need a second photographer?
Not necessarily. I photograph weddings on my own, but a second photographer can be added for $150 per hour. It's especially useful for larger weddings or when important moments are happening in different locations at the same time.
Is an Engagement or Bridal Session included?
Yes! Full Wedding and All Day packages include a complimentary one-hour Engagement or Bridal Portrait Session, with 20 edited images. You get to choose which one you'd prefer.
Do you travel for weddings?
Yes! I photograph weddings in Houston, Katy, throughout Texas, and beyond. Travel fees may apply depending on the location, and I'll always discuss them with you before booking.
When will we receive our wedding photos?
Your full gallery will be ready within 25 business days.
How will we receive our photos?
You'll receive a private online gallery where you can view, download, and share your professionally edited photographs.
Can we get the RAW or unedited images?
I deliver finished, professionally edited photographs rather than RAW files. Editing is part of my creative process, and I want every image you receive to reflect the quality of my work.
What if we're not comfortable in front of the camera?
That's completely normal! You don't need to know how to pose. I'll give you direction when it's helpful and step back when real moments are happening. My goal is for you to enjoy your wedding, not feel like you're spending the whole day at a photo shoot.
Let's document your story
Every wedding is different, and I'd love to hear what you're planning. Tell me a little about your day, and we'll figure out how to capture it in a way that feels like you.
