F.A.Q *

  • I'm so excited that you’re considering me for your big day! The next step is to reach out to me so we can discuss your wedding and how I can help capture those memories. Once we connect, we’ll go over all the details, and I’ll secure your date once the contract and retainer are in place. After that, we’re all set!

  • Every wedding package is thoughtfully curated to give you a seamless experience and stunning images. You’ll receive:

    A full, beautifully edited gallery of high-resolution images

    The ability to share your gallery easily with friends and family

    Unlimited downloads of both high-res and web-sized images

    A video or phone consultation to ensure we’re all on the same page

    50 miles of free travel from San Francisco (if your wedding's beyond that, no worries—we’ll figure out the travel details together!)

  • I know how excited you’ll be to relive your special day, so I work as quickly as possible! Depending on the season, I typically deliver galleries between 4-10 weeks after your wedding. For engagement and bridal sessions, it’s usually a quicker 2-3 week turnaround.

  • Absolutely! Every photo in your gallery will be carefully edited with my signature style—think gorgeous color-grading and that magical touch to make your photos timeless.

  • A minimum of 30 minutes for your portraits (not including travel) works best. We can do these either before the ceremony for a “First Look” moment or afterwards during that stunning golden hour. Trust me, sunset light creates the most dreamy, epic shots.

  • Yes, I do! Engagement sessions are such a fun way for us to get comfortable working together, and they also make perfect save-the-date or invitation photos.

  • I shoot with top-of-the-line Canon professional cameras and lenses, along with some prestigious Carl Zeiss lenses for that extra sharpness and clarity. Your photos are in good hands! And I just got my hands on a new Sony :)

  • I graduated from the prestigious École de l'image Gobelins in Paris in 2010, one of the top photography schools in Europe, and I have been a full-time professional photographer for over 15 years. My experience spans fashion photography, commercial photography, and lifestyle photography, working with some of the world’s most iconic brands, including Gucci, L'Oréal Paris, Cartier, Universal Music, and YSL Beauty.

    Throughout my career, I’ve developed a unique ability to capture authentic, stunning moments with my signature style of color-grading and artistic vision. Whether it’s fashion campaigns, editorial shoots, or wedding photography, I bring passion, creativity, and professionalism to every project.

  • I bring a unique blend of artistic vision, years of fashion experience, and a warm, laid-back approach to every wedding. My color-grading style and that French touch (bonjour!) give your photos a distinct edge, and I always make sure we have fun while capturing the moments that matter.

  • Yes! For portraits, I’ll guide you through some relaxed, natural poses that will make you look your best. I also love capturing spontaneous, in-the-moment shots throughout the day to document the real, candid emotions of your wedding.

  • Yes, I offer retouching for an additional fee. Whether it’s removing a small distraction, thinning out a background, or perfecting skin, I can customize the edits to make your photos flawless.

  • 100% YES! I am a huge advocate for love in all its forms and have proudly worked with many LGBTQ+ couples. I can’t wait to celebrate your love with you!

  • Think joyful, goofy, yet totally calm and focused! I’ll bring the positive vibes, make sure you feel comfortable, and keep an eye out for those meaningful, candid moments—always with a smile.

Kind words

“Having Nastasia photograph me was the most effortless experience I’ve ever had with a photographer before. She makes you feel beautiful, which results in gorgeous photographs. I also love that she shoots film, making the images look artistically vintage. Hiring Nastasia was the best choice I’ve ever made and I will cherish these photos forever!”

— Paige Baxter

“Nastasia's eye, skill, and presence brought so much freedom and beauty to our work together and the images she created. I've had the great fortune to have her shoot professional photos of me, and they are incredible! She was able to see my vision for how the shoot would look. We refined that vision through conversation and through images that gave a sense of what I wanted. She added her fresh creativity and expertise to deliver photos that deftly and delicately realized what I had imagined.

Nastasia has many visual gifts. She selects locations that create dreamy moods and works with light to capture the ephemeral beauty in life and in people. She is versatile, professional, and dependable. I highly recommend her for capturing the essence of beauty in your life.”

— Shannon Bronson

“I loved shooting with Nastasia! I’m typically awkward in front of a camera, but Nastasia made me feel comfortable the whole time. She brings authenticity, creativity, and humor to her work that allows everyone around her to loosen up and enjoy themselves. She captures moments you don’t realize she’s shooting, which is always my favorites. She’s an artist, and the way she works with you, the light, and the environment around you lead to straight-up magic in her photos. Would book her again any day!”
