Planning a wedding can be overwhelming with all the decisions you have to make, but choosing Nela as our photographer was one of the best and easiest choices. She is truly magical, not only in her work but in how she makes you feel. My husband and I aren’t photo people—we were admittedly dreading the idea of posing—but Nela made us feel comfortable within minutes. Her patience and thoughtful approach transformed what we thought would be an awkward experience into something enjoyable. The proof is in the photos: every shot is special, capturing not just the moment but the emotion of the day.

Nela and her team were a calming, seamless presence throughout the wedding. From start to finish, she was professional, caring, and delivered exactly what we wanted—and more. If you’re looking for a photographer who will make you feel at ease and deliver stunning photos you’ll treasure forever, Nela is the one.

Working with Nela for any of our event clients has been an absolute dream. She is so much fun to be around, has such an artistic eye and is so collaborative when working with all the other vendors. Each event we have worked on together was a show stopper and she made sure to capture it all!

Booking Nela for our photos was one of the best decisions we made! Nela, as a person, is incredibly warm and kind. In regard to her photography skills, she is truly amazing. We had seen her work in publications and were really drawn to them which is what prompted us to work with her. She was able to put my wife and me at ease and made the photo sessions so much fun. Our photos turned out like a dream! We loved meeting Nela and working with her was such a special experience. If you are looking for a master of her craft, you honestly cannot go wrong with Nela.

Nela is INCREDIBLE! Nela and her wonderful team shot our November wedding and captured the day and all its moments perfectly - we are so beyond thrilled with all the photos. Nela made us feel at ease on the day and was so lovely throughout the planning process, always available to answer any questions.
An amazing (& vast!) selection of "sneak peeks" was delivered right after the big day and our full collection followed shortly afterwards.
You will not find better!!!!!! 🙂

A true artist. I truly cannot say enough good things about Nela! Nela shot my fine jewelry line and branding photos. I was absolutely blown away by every picture! Nela makes you feel so comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. The experience from start to finish was incredible as she helped put together a detailed mood board and gave me amazing tips on how to prepare for the shoot.
In addition to the beautiful pictures, Nela was unbelievable to work with throughout the entire process. She was so responsive to every email and question I had about the process. She is extremely creative and has an amazing artistic eye for photography. I can't wait to book her for another shoot in the future. I would highly recommend her for wedding, life style, or branding photography!

Nela is, by far, the most talented and skilled photographer I have had the pleasure of working with. From the very first meeting, Nela exuded professionalism, warmth, and a genuine passion for her work. Her attention to detail and commitment to understanding our vision were evident throughout the entire process. She took the time to listen to our ideas, preferences, and concerns, ensuring that she was able to deliver exactly what we envisioned.

On the day of the wedding, Nela truly went above and beyond our expectations. She seamlessly blended into the event, capturing intimate moments and candid interactions without ever being obtrusive. She had a grounding presence that was so valuable in such a whirlwind of a day.

Most importantly to me, Nela managed to capture the subtle emotions that made our wedding truly unique. She captured us as a couple on our wedding day - not just a bride and groom. Our true expressions were documented naturally and (seemingly) effortlessly.

In addition to her incredible photography, Nela was our easiest vendor to work with. She is the consummate professional. She was punctual, organized, and coordinated with other vendors and members of the wedding party with ease. Her positive and fun demeanor put everyone at ease, making the entire process enjoyable and stress-free. Furthermore, the post-production work was nothing short of exceptional. The final edited images were delivered quickly, and we were thrilled with the outcome.

Nela captured our wedding day in a way that exceeded our wildest dreams, and for that, we are forever grateful. Thank you Nela!

Nela is one of the best photographers ever!
She photographed my wedding and we are super happy with the results. I have also had the pleasure of working with her many times in other areas and can recommend her 100% as a portrait and fashion photographer. Working with her is a lot of fun and the pictures are great!
