We really wanted our   photos to capture the day - to tell the story of our wedding. Svetlana was brilliant at capturing

just the right moments.

Photojournalistic Wedding Photography

Svetlana Photography’s style is an elegant blend of modern and timeless, with a uniquely creative flair and true-to-life colors.

My photography is deeply rooted in a photojournalistic style, meaning I document your wedding day as it truly happens—authentic, unfiltered, and full of emotion. I believe the most powerful images aren’t staged; they’re the fleeting, in-between moments—the laughter, the quiet touches, the joyful tears. With an unobtrusive approach, I focus on storytelling through imagery, allowing you to relive the magic of your wedding day exactly as it felt.

Bridal Portraits:
A Moment Just for You

Modern

Timeless

Creative

One of my absolute favorite parts of your austin wedding photography is capturing stunning bridal portraits—whether on the wedding day or during a separate BRIDAL session beforehand.


Want a chance to fully soak in your bridal look before the big day? A pre-wedding bridal session is always a win in my book! Here’s why: It’s like a dress rehearsal—you’ll see your entire look come together, giving you time to make any last-minute adjustments. It allows you to be in front of the camera without the pressure of a wedding day timeline—giving you space to breathe, move, and shine. If you’re feeling anxious or easily overwhelmed, consider this a self-care session where you can relax, enjoy, and feel truly present.

Bridal Portrait Session
 Before the Wedding

One of the questions I often get asked from brides who decide to forego a Bridal Portrait session or unable to squeeze it into their busy schedules is: Will you be able to take some bridal portraits on my wedding day?

And my answer is: Absolutely, YES. One of my goals for a successful wedding day shoot is to find as many creative ways as possible to incorporate shots of just the bride. In fact, it’s one of my favorite parts of the day! In my eyes, if you're a bride, you're the queen, and I will work to make sure you feel like it on your wedding day.

BRIDAL PORTRAITS ON YOUR WEDDING DAY

Your Austin wedding photography experience begins at $2,500 for six hours of coverage and complimentary engagement mini session, with the flexibility to tailor it to your unique needs. Personalize your package with optional add-ons like extra hours, specialty sessions (bridal, engagement, boudoir, etc.), a second photographer, or the ultimate keepsake—an exquisite heirloom album that captures your love story for generations.

In 2008, I was fortunate enough to be able to visit the vibrant country of India and it was there that I first developed my love and passion for photography. Since then, I have been hopelessly enchanted with the inherent beauty of traditional Indian weddings. My eye is drawn to the bright, celebratory colors and my heart– to the beautifully symbolic ceremonies. 

Over the years, I’ve had the distinct pleasure of photographing many Indian weddings in the greater Austin, Texas area and I would be honored to capture yours as well.

The Perfect Match

Wedding Timelines + Photography

While all weddings are different, you should keep in mind how important your wedding timeline is to your photography. It’s a good idea to run your timeline by your Austin wedding photographer before printing the invites because we know a thing or two about optimal lighting.

My general formula is:

Want more great wedding tips? I send some out to my subscribers. 

Pre-ceremony photography: at least 2 hours before the ceremony

Outdoor Ceremony: 2 hours before sunset (for best light!)

Post-ceremony photography: 1 hour to 1.5 hours after ceremony

I was blown away by the way Svetlana captured our wedding day so perfectly in her photos...

Svetlana did both my bridals and our wedding, and the photos came out beautifully. She captured all the must-have shots and also customized the sessions so that they were uniquely us. She was very open to the moment and corralled our chaotic family into the best group shots we've taken. We ended up printing them off and sending them to everyone. I felt completely comfortable around her, and she got the shots we wanted without disrupting the magic of the day -- that's truly a talent and an art.
