“Timeless wedding photography & films for couples who want to feel it all again.”

About Us

At Love Photos & Films, we believe your wedding is more than just a single day, it’s a deeply personal story told through emotion, connection, and once-in-a-lifetime moments. Through a blend of documentary-style photography and cinematic films, we’re here to preserve every part of it, the quiet glances, the joyful chaos, and everything in between.

With over 14 years of experience and more than 300 weddings behind us, we’ve had the honor of documenting love stories in all forms. Our work is rooted in honesty and heart, capturing the real moments, the kind you don’t pose for but will never forget.

We don’t just create images and films—we craft heirlooms. Each photograph and frame is designed to hold feeling, to transport you back to how it all truly felt. Our approach is unobtrusive and intentional, with a focus on timeless style, genuine emotion, and a little fun along the way.

I’m Oleg—photographer, filmmaker, husband, dad, and a proud nerd at heart. I bring calm energy, genuine care, and a storyteller’s eye to every celebration. On your wedding day, I’m more than just a vendor, I’m a friend with a camera, here to support you, celebrate with you, and capture your story as it naturally unfolds.

If you're looking for wedding photography and films that are real, emotive, and authentically you, I’d be honored to help tell your story.

Love Letters

Highlight Film.00_04_50_16.Still012.jpg

If you, like me watch Oleg's highlight films on his instagram and cry even without knowing the bride and groom, you can't even imagine how hard my husband and I cried watching our own highlight film. Oleg is a master at videography, perfectly weaving in the audio of the ceremony and speeches and making a wedding video to perfectly tell your story.

 

On top of that Oleg is just such a kind and genuine human we loved hanging out with from our first video chat, to a coffee date and especially on the wedding day.

 

Don't hesitate to hire Oleg and Love Photos and Films, it was the best decision we made.

Oleg was a dream to work with. He was responsive, helpful, and took the time to answer all our questions. He truly took the time to get to know us, what we were looking for in a photographer, and how he could help make that a reality. He made us feel totally at ease at both our engagement shoot and during our wedding, and the photos came out absolutely STUNNING. He did an amazing job capturing our day, and gave us timeless photos that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. We even got compliments from some of our guests about how great he was. I cannot recommend him and his work enough! Thank you Oleg for an amazing experience and truly fantastic photos.

Wedding Videography

Wedding films aren’t about cameras or coverage — they’re about storytelling. About noticing the moments that matter, understanding the people in the room, and weaving it all together in a way that feels honest and deeply personal.

Our work is rooted in story first, emotion always. We approach every wedding with the mindset of a storyteller, paying close attention not just to what happens, but to how it feels. The quiet glances, the unplanned laughter, the voices that tremble during vows — these are the moments that shape a film and give it meaning.

Every wedding film we create is handcrafted to reflect the couple it belongs to. No templates. No formulas. Just a thoughtful, intuitive approach that allows the day to unfold naturally while we document it with intention and care. When people who have never met the couple tell us they felt like they knew them after watching the film, we know the story was told well.

Most of our couples choose us to capture both their photography and film because they value a cohesive, story-driven approach from start to finish. We also take on a limited number of weddings for videography exclusively, working closely with each couple to ensure their film feels as meaningful years from now as it did on the day itself.

We are beyond grateful for the incredible work Oleg did capturing our wedding day. From the very beginning, he was very thoughtful, professional, and so easy to work with. On the day itself, he blended seamlessly into the celebration—never intrusive, yet always in the right place at the right time. He made us and our families feel comfortable and relaxed, which truly shines through in the photos.

The final gallery is everything we hoped for and more: natural, genuine, and full of emotion. Every smile, every detail, and every joyful moment was beautifully preserved. These photos are treasures we’ll hold onto for a lifetime.

We can’t recommend Love Photos highly enough to anyone looking for someone not only talented behind the camera, but also kind, patient, and passionate about their craft. Truly a dream to work with.
