Chernogorov Photography

Planner for 12 years, have planned weddings all over the country, and Chernogorov Photographer is the best photographer I've ever worked with. Every photo they deliver can be hung in a gallery, it's so beautifully captured and artistic while focusing on capturing your love and the most important aspects of your wedding day. Extremely professional, incredible eye for detail, will guide you the entire day, super fun to work with, and two of the most wonderful people you will ever meet. My couples stay friends with them after the wedding as they have an innate ability to connect with couples. They go beyond just taking photos, they create an atmosphere where genuine emotions unfold naturally, resulting in candid & heartwarming images you will cherish your photos for the rest of your life. WORTH. EVERY. PENNY!!!

an the last - there is truly not a single photo out of 1,000+ that I don't like. They made us feel so comfortable, captured every moment, and because there's two of them, they don't miss a beat. My husband and I will cherish our photos for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Liliya and Albert!

es; every single person who sees our photos says they belong in Vogue. They lend a beautiful European essence to their work. I wish I could just go back to the wedding weekend and how magical they made everything. I highly recommend anyone who works with them to also get the beautiful coffee table book album they provide. There truly is something more magnificent to being able to physically look at, touch, and feel the memories in a book than on your phone—I can’t wait for ours soon!

day. When we received our photos the full day was captured perfectly and the quality of the photos are incredible! Thank you again, we couldn’t be happier! Mr & Mrs Willard

hotos. They also are extremely easy to work with when posing for shots and know exactly how to give you the photos in the style you like. Added bonus, they are both incredibly kind and we felt at ease the moment we met them. They are very professional and very on top of their work. We loved all of our photos and the whole experience. Highly recommend! Thank you so much!!

d Liliya has such a kind personality that the two of them can make your day go very relaxing and special. The photos that they took were absolutely amazing! We cannot stop sharing them and the best thing is that we will have them forever! Our friends and families didn't stop raving about how amazing Liliya and Albert were. If you are looking for a photographer and you are looking for the elevated and elegant style that they produce it means that you've found the right wedding photographers - Chernogorov Photography!

looking for with a touch of editorial style in their posing. What we really loved about them was not only their outstanding photographs but also how sweet and kind these two souls are! After our phone call, we knew that they would be the best fit for our wedding. We were so happy with their presence on our day, it was such a great experience working with them! Thank you Liliya and Albert for everything you did for us and for all of the amazing photos that we will cherish forever!

uch sweethearts and they made the wedding day go smoothly their company was absolutely fantastic. They blended with the crowd so well and they guide us through the whole wedding day. On top of that, the gallery that we receive is outstanding! We had our wedding in Santa Barbara, California, and we cannot recommend them enough!

between us. They flew out to Chicago a day early to scout locations for our engagements photos, and even extended our photoshoot an extra day due to weather. We then had them capture a few other events during our wedding celebrations, and they came to know our family and friends. They have an uncanny ability to bring out the best in everyone they shoot. The photos they took of us are the most beautiful that we've ever taken in our lives. On top of all that, they are immensely kind, patient, and passionate. We would not hesitate to have them capture all of our future special moments, in only to get to spend time with them again. There is no one who will do a better job of capturing you and your loved ones in their most beautiful light. We can't recommend Chernogorov Photography more highly!

e to have our wedding planner recommend them and after reviewing there extensive wedding portfolio we only wanted them to capture our most special day. My now husband and I were initially a little nervous when it came to our engagement photo session due to not feeling 100% comfortable in front of a camera however with their incredible direction and their fun, lighthearted temperament we easily found that working with Liliya and Albert put our fears at ease. By the end of our photo session we felt like professional models. From start to end Liliya and Albert will make you look and feel better then you could only imagine. The only mistake that one could make, is not hiring them. Currently my husband and I are reviewing our wedding photos. Our wedding was on 02/22/22. It’s difficult to choose which ones we want to print, they are all so beautiful. We are incredibly grateful that we hired Chernogorov Photography, absolutely no regrets.

with. My husband and I felt extremely comfortable with them and our guests had extremely positive things to say about them as well. I would definitely work with them again.

ecently, they did a dreamy photoshoot for us on the California coast in Big Sur and Carmel-by-the-Sea! They researched and scoped out all the best spots for us. Their warm personalities made us feel so comfortable and it reflected so naturally in our photos. I felt like we were living a dream! We explored the most amazing hidden spots in Big Sur and Carmel-by-the-Sea in front of the lens of two amazing photography artists. Liliya and Albert taught us how to pose and they orchestrated every angle perfectly. Our photos came out so dreamy, more than I ever imagined! Thank you, Albert and Liliya for the most dreamy experience. We love our photos and we can't wait to enjoy them for the years to come!

always so polite and so generous. I can’t thank them enough.

tart to end in the best way possible.

an imagine everything felt like chaos when we began planning our wedding. A date was set, and a destination wedding was picked….in FABULOUS LAS VEGAS. Other than my grandparents living there, I didn’t even know where to begin with vendors! Of course, I got on the hunt and started searching through The knot, WeddingWire, and all the other helpful wedding sites thrown at me. Picking a photographer was one of the first things me and my husband (eek so weird saying that!) started searching for. We talked to several people and heard them all out and then we spoke with Albert and Liliya Chernogorov. Looking through their photo albums I was already in love but when we got off the phone with them…My husband was the first to say, “I like them the best”. The warmth and knowledge they brought to the table was incredible. Once we booked with them it immediately brought us ease in planning. When speaking about our timeline of how the wedding day would look, the experience they had was obvious, there were things I had not even thought about! Even with googling a thousand things “not to forget”. Our engagement session was the first time we met them and my husband, who hates those public intimate moments, said after we were alone, “that was really fun, I could do that again”. Liliya and Albert are really the best at what they do and will make you feel so comfortable. Our wedding day was perfect because of their timeline…they left space I didn’t think we needed but thank goodness for their expertise! We also had them leaving an hour before our wedding ended but they decided to stay until the very end and one of our favorite pictures is us leaving during the sendoff! They did NOT have to do that, but they knew it was important to us and did not even charge us for the extra hour. What they say is so true, your wedding day goes by so quick and all you have left is the photos and memories from that day. AND THE PHOTOS WERE BREATHTAKING. Not to mention we got over 180 sneak peek pictures just a couple days after the wedding!! Choosing Albert and Liliya will be the best decision you can make, in all honesty. We would book with them 100 times over.

across so much more beautiful and artistic than the typical wedding photographer. I thought the cost was very reasonable as well, especially for the quality of the photographers and their photos. We have received a first set of wedding photos and I could not be more pleased. The photos were beautifully shot and edited. I was so happy we went with this photographer - after all, the photos are the only thing you have left of the wedding day - so worth it!

this COVID craziness. But they were nothing short of spectacular. We had no idea what was going to happen. The guidelines kept changing for the state, but they kept me updated through the entire process. They were very easy to contact, so easy to be in touch when needed. We finally decided to have our photos done before our ceremony - and we decided to have the photos at Floyd Lamb Park. The few photo we got from our sneak peak - they are breathtaking. So I’m love with the few we have now. Liliya and Albert - I don’t know how to thank you both. Not only were you just a pleasure to work with - but the personality and love they have with each other is amazing. The entire session felt like we were with some of our best friends - they made us feel so comfortable, smiling, and genuinely laughing the entire time! The have that friendly vibe that makes you feel like you know them, and I loved it! They’re such beautiful souls - not to mention such a beautiful couple themselves! Just take a look at their work and you can see the love and perfectionist touch on each of their photos. They love what they do, they love photography - and it completely reflecting on their work. Don’t hesitate. Reach out. It’s worth it. The high quality photos. The entire experience. I couldn’t be happier. ❤️

o lucky! They were incredibly professional and the type of people that we definitely be friends with outside of our event. We had our wedding in our backyard and all the shots they got were artistically genius. We truly loved every picture they sent us which is a big thing for me to say because I hate how I look in photos. They knew exactly how to position ourselves with the lighting outdoors throughout the evening. They made both of us feel so comfortable, I didn't feel like I had to try to be a model at all. We received black and white photos along with the colored and we are still in awe of the artistry of how they turned out. Some other things we didn't expect was the great communication. We received updates as the photos were being processed, and also received a user friendly portal to easily download all the photos in a nicely organized set of folders based on the categories of the evening. It was so easy to download both the social media and high definition formats. I will say though, if you want a photographer that only gives you a few good photos out of a bunch of duds don't go with these guys. You will spend days trying to pick out your favorites because they are all incredible. Oh did I mention they have a place on the photo portal that you can easily heart the photos that are your favorites so you can download them easily as you swipe through them? Yeah they thought of everything. They even pulled out a special light for the evening to capture some nigh time photos using an uplight to cast some pretty cool light and shadow effects. Would definitely recommend this couple to everyone!!! You will NOT be disappointed!

ing with them prior to the wedding day helped ease the stress of the day. They let us know what we needed to prep before they arrived to capture all the details of my dress and accessories so it was easier to get started. Also, they helped with the timeline of the day, so we can have the most time doing our formal photos of us and our family. They scouted locations prior and knew the perfect spots around our neighborhood (at home wedding). They were very clear on how to pose too! My husband and I can be awkward in front of the camera but they gave us tips and tricks on our posture and posing so we looked natural in our photos. Also, as a husband and wife team, they were able to show us exactly how to do a pose before we had to do it ourselves which made it even more clear on how to carry out a pose. They were very efficient and professional during the whole process. During the ceremony, they were not an obstruction to the environment and still took beautiful pictures. They blended in and so happy they were able to capture all the special and emotional moments. Lastly, our family and friends cannot stop raving about how beautiful and creative the photos turned out! I have friends who are still showing their friends the photos because they are unreal! Also, our family who joined us that day, can’t stop raving about how professional, efficient, and great people Albert and Liliya. They are an amazing team! 10/10 recommend them for your wedding day!

, we felt comfortable, at ease and knew that everything would be handled. They are absolute experts in their field and are a rockstar husband and wife team. We were planning from out of town and had a few hiccups with our venue along the way, so naturally I was a little anxious. They spent a full day with us when we came to visit to talk about our vision, visit our ceremony and reception venues and meet our entire team. The day of, they were calm, focused and managed to get every shot we dreamed of. On top of everything, it was so amazing to see two people so in love work so well together. They compliment each other beautifully in their work, understanding that the other has a different eye for the art and really giving each other opportunity to shine. They made us feel so comfortable, beautiful, calm, every single guest absolutely loved them and we are so lucky to say we found a wonderful friendship through the process. There are not enough words to describe Albert and Liliya, professional, kind, exceptional, talented, amazing are a few.... If you are lucky enough to have them for your wedding, you will not be disappointed!

ere there every step of the way during the elopement planning. They even recommended the perfect officiant, Janet. Our parents walked us down the nature isle and I’m so happy with how they took care of our family. They guided us through beautiful poses during our romantics and captured the photojournalist moments that’s so important for us to look back on. The photos will be cherished for generations to come. Thank you <3 Lots of love -Marie & Albert S.

ing our photos!

received are magical!!!

e conception of the wedding day! Of course the pictures were absolutely breathtaking.We highly recommend them.

mind when I began thinking about planning the big day. They were always extremely fast to respond and when I first reached out they immediately found a time that worked with my busy schedule to meet over coffee and talk about my vision for the wedding. I'm not really the kind of girl that ever dreamed about what her "big day" would look like, so I went into planning my wedding with no real idea in mind of how I wanted it to look. When we met over coffee, they gave me a few places to start. You can tell that they not only have the experience to smoothly coordinate weddings, but also the raw talent to visualize what you want your wedding to look like almost before you know it yourself. We met once more before the wedding after I had decided on the day-of schedule and discussed what our plans were. They suggested I move a few things around to save time and focus more on getting the pictures that would mean the most to us, and it was a huge benefit. They also checked in with me periodically over the planning months to ask if I needed anything, which made me feel a bit more relaxed. I didn't have a day-of-coordinator but Albert and Liliya essentially functioned as that - they kept us on time (as much as possible, considering I was a little late walking down the aisle), and spent time before the wedding coaching both me and my husband on how to hold each other during shots, how to rest our arms, and even how to kiss to make each shot look genuine. It's also great that there are two of them because they were able to get pictures of both me and my groom getting ready in our different locations. They arrived early and stayed later than they needed to and made sure to capture all of the fun moments on the dance floor. The whole day was fantastic, and Liliya and Albert were a crucial part of making our wedding wonderful. They told me they would be sending a sneak peak picture the next day of the wedding for us to use on social media, and the next morning I woke up to find not one but nine(!!!) gorgeous photos of our wedding day! It was so nice to be able to update the rest of our friends and family that couldn't travel for our wedding via social media, and also it gave me some small instant gratification that the last year I spent planning really was worth all of the time spent ;) The rest of the pictures were incredible and also delivered within three weeks. I cannot recommend this couple enough for your wedding, they helped guide us through planning, wedding vision, wedding style and made our wedding as smooth and stress-free as possible. Thanks so much you guys!

e them so much and would use them again. They literally made the wedding even more amazing, got people laughing and having a good time as well.

sence, laughter and smiles. They are one of the sweetest couples we have ever come across and absolutely love what they do. They were both extremely helpful. Not only were they there to do our photos but they literally helped us with loading and unloading luggage and personal items to and from during the wedding and helped me numerous times during our photo shoots with my dress and veil. Their work is absolutely stunning and they really captured us in every moment we were in. We had them for our engagement session as well and we were extremely please all around with the services they provided for us. I will definitely be asking for their services again! Thank you Albert and Lilian!

e! We paid our venue extra just to not use their standard photographer, but to contract Albert. He knew all the spots around the property and made us feel so comfortable throughout the whole day and night. We both are not that great with getting our photo taken, but Albert walked us through everything and always with a sincere smile and laugh. We also asked Albert to photograph our reception. When our coordinator left and we didn't know what to do- Albert immediately stepped in and took charge of the schedule, working with the DJ, the banquet staff- while still taking breathtaking photos!!!! We are forever grateful that we hired Albert and highly recommend you contact him for your wedding!! Honestly- he is the REAL DEAL! AMAZING!!

y, without being face to face, however, from the moment we first spoke on the phone, I knew that I wanted to book with Albert and Liliya. The made our wedding day so magical. They were extremely personable and easy to work with and they went above and beyond to ensure we had the most perfect day. We cannot thank them enough for their hard work and dedication and we would highly recommend them. Thank you.

m after seeing the photos Albert & Liliya produce. The booking process was easy even from England and we arranged a Skype call to talk through my needs. This personalised the experience and also reassured me as it’s difficult organising a wedding without being able to meet people. They were a absolute pleasure to have around on our wedding day. The love they have for what they do and for each other is evident and was lovely to be around. When driving for our dry lake photos we chatted and felt relaxed. Albert knew our locations well and had picked the perfect spots for photos. They provided us with direction as we were out of our comfort zone. The photos we have are absolutely beautiful and we couldn’t be happier we chose Albert & Liliya. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!

illya are the photographers for you! Both Albert and Lillya are so calming and have no problem reminding you about what you need to do, even if it's constantly (in my case). When I received my photos, my first thought was OMG! I look like a model in the bridal magazine. I was blown away with home many photos I loved. I loved more photos then I didn't like. So much so, even though I live over 1,000 miles away I would go back to them to take my photos or convince them to come out to the PNW :)

re very friendly and told us all the postures for the pictures. The pictures were couple of days after the wedding ready and they are amazing and extremly professional. Couldnt be happier than that. If you are looking for photographers for your wedding, we highly recommend them. You will get great memories of your big day.

lso in person before the big day, to make sure everything will be perfect for our wedding. On the big day, they were punctual, very professional and they definitely knew what they were doing. As a result, the pictures turned out amazing!! We are so happy that we chose them and we have amazing photos to share with our children and grandchildren. Besides, we found in Vegas two great friends in Albert and Liliya!

all our questions quickly wich was so nice. Fast farward to the day of the wedding...everything was perfect! Even more that we could imagine. They were on time and instantly made us laugh... definitly fun to work with. They captured not only the photo, but the emotions that go with it so in reviewing our pictures, instantly taken back to that special day. Our pictures turned out amazing, by far the best wedding photos we´ve ever seen!! We would choose them again in a heartbeat. Thank you Albert and Liliya for making our day better than the best! Marcela & Gustavo

o contact for a photographer and we both immediately agreed they were perfect and didn't look any further. We had a few calls to go over the timeline and suggested so many great ideas we ended up using. Super sweet couple and really relaxed me all the way thru out the day.(and boy was I a stressed one) Being 108 outside, they really accommodated where we took pictures , had water for me and even fanned me to cool down ( who does that?!lol) We didn't do a traditional venue but dinner at Brio (Great Food!) Then jumped on a party bus and had a "reception on wheels" Luliya went ahead to save our spots at the locations which really saved so much time, and I really felt special just showing up and being in the spotlight immediately. Did I mention, you don't get one amazing photographer but two! Our family and Friends all had great complements to say about them and after seeing our gallery, JUST WOW! You will not be disappointed. Highly Recommend!!

d my work and they helped me with their friendly approach, humor and the results were spectacular! They produced wonderful images within a very short amount of time and their fee was more than reasonable! I would definitely recommend working with Lilia and Albert - not just because the high quality images they produce, but they are also wonderful people with very romantic and warm approach. Between two of them - you will get a great fashion advice, they will teach you how to pose as if you are going to be on a cover of a magazine and last but not least - they will make your day special with a dash of sense of humor :)

raphers . We found Albert and Liliya online and we were impressed by all the great reviews out there and let me tell you they are all true. I was very impressed after our Skype call . They listened very careful of our needs and gave an incredible advices and suggestions so our photo shoot turned out to be 100 times better that we expected. They are not only super professional but are one of the nicest people we ever came across. As I mentioned we had many photo shoots before but we never were so happy of the final product. We will definitely do another one with them and we highly recommend them for your special occasions. They are full of ideas and are willing to assist all your needs and make your day unforgettable . If we could we would give them 10 stars.

e did I know this was a blessing in disguise!! Finding Albert and Lilaya was a the best thing! They both are nothing short of amazing! From their personalities to work I cannot say enough! They made our day so special. We are so lucky to have found them :)

inish they made our day so special, and made us feel and look amazing. Our bridal party even raved about them throughout the day. I can go on and on about everything they did to make our day and photos perfect, but most importantly know, they are so passionate about what they do and you will be pleased you chose them. Thank you so much for everything! :)

I am so glad that we went with them. My wife, the bridal party, my parents, my family, all had nothing but the highest praises for them. Thank you so much Albert and Liliya!

uple and what we were looking for in our wedding photos before the actual ceremony. They are very professional go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable (especially with the awkward but totally worth it boudoir photos!) All of the pictures came out beautifully and we’ve received so many compliments on how great the pictures turned out! They even spent extra time touching up the pictures afterwards so that everyone could look their best in them all. I would highly recommend them for your wedding photos!

ement shoot. Both our than we could have ever imagined. The both of them were the sweetest people to top it off. They were great with my infant son and all the wedding guests loved them too!
