Why Choose Grand Photo?

Posing expert
Do you feel awkward in photos and need help with WHERE TO PUT YOUR HANDS?! Or is there something you are self conscious about? I hear this from 99% of my brides before they book me, and when I show them photos of themselves they can hardly believe it! Posing in a natural + flattering way is a strength of mine, so don’t worry! I’ll tell you where to put everything and make you look your very best while I’m at it ;)

VERSATILE
Typically a photographer is either good at capturing candid photos OR posed portraits. My style is a blend of both! So you get the best of both worlds - candid photos that will stir your emotions, and intentional photos with beautiful lighting and natural posing that will still look good in 50 years. Truth be told, though... those in-between moments are my favorite and I have a sixth sense for when cute things are going to happen.

EDITING QUEEN
I’ve spent the last 8+ years perfecting my editing style and consistency in how my images look. I’m very meticulous and believe your dress detail should be visible i.e. no “glowing” wedding dresses and colors stay true to life. My style is very bright, but shadows keep their integrity (black suits stay black, not grey!).

EXPERIENCED
My first wedding I shot solo was in 2017. Since then I have photographed over 200 wedding days and have SEEN IT ALL. Every lighting situation, every time constraint, weather conundrums, family dynamics; the list goes on. I have truly learned how to turn lemons into lemonade for every unexpected twist and turn that inevitably happens on wedding days. That also means I’m a professional dress-bustler and boutonniere pinner--I’m basically your BTS bridesmaid with a camera.

We were so thrilled to have chosen Karyna as a photographer for our elopement in 2020. From the start, she was hyper organized and responsive to all of our questions, and so friendly and relaxed that her presence helped us feel truly at ease. Plus, the end product - colorful, joyful photos that captured all the best moments of our day. Moreover, Karyna became our “family photographer” after we booked her couple times for our family sessions with our newborn. Definitely recommend her services!

My husband and I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to capture the memories of our wedding day! From start to finish, Karyna paid such close attention to every little detail, making sure nothing was missed. Her ability to catch the candid moments, as well as the more traditional shots, was absolutely amazing. Not only was her work incredible, but she was also so easy and fun to work with! She kept us relaxed and smiling the whole time, and it truly felt like we had a friend there with us.

Couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! Karyna captured all the best moments of our wedding ceremony which we’ll cherish for a lifetime. Working with her felt so comfortable and natural, even though my husband and I hardly knew how to pose. Everything was so efficient and the photos all came out so beautiful it was so hard to narrow down. Thanks again!

Karyna of Grand Photo is truly a pro. She is a quick and clear communicator who asks plenty of questions to understand the vision. We hired her for engagement photos as well as for our wedding and she went above and beyond for both events. She delivers the photos pretty quickly and they are all stunning- she is able to capture the emotion and the special moments of the day, and is great at playing with the lighting. Not to mention she is a fun and easy going person which is definitely vital for wedding day!

Karyna was the best to work with!! We started by using her for engagement photos and loved the experience so much we used her for the wedding too. She always responds quickly and her turn around time for the final pictures was so fast. She let us know before the wedding how long pictures would take and how much time to schedule. I sent her the schedule beforehand and she kept everyone on track. She has a great attention to detail and adjusts when necessary. The best part is she is so fun!

Karyna is by far the best photographer that I’ve ever worked with. She is great during the shoot with her attention to detail and patience. But also the images from the shoot are always perfect!
She has photographed many of my life’s big events(engagement, wedding, maternity) and I have always been glad to use her. She has earned a loyal customer for life.

Kind Words From Past Clients
My fiancé and I were honored to have Karyna as our wedding photographer on 9/7/2024. Karyna was calm and professional throughout the chaos of the day. When we received the final photos, we were blown away at how they came out - STUNNING. The biggest thing that I am thankful for is that Karyna was able to bypass what I thought would be the biggest hurdle which would be catching the smiles and laughter of the stoics in my family. Seeing candid photos where they are smiling and laughing meant the world to me.

Kind Words From Past Clients
We hired GRAND Photo to take pictures of our intimate wedding ceremony and restaurant reception in Boston, and our experience with Karyna was absolutely perfect! Our wedding photography included a photo walk from the Boston City Hall to the restaurant and Karyna could not have planned a better, more picturesque route, so all of our photos had amazing backgrounds! Karyna was efficient and punctual, flexible with our requests while at the same time quick to offer gentle guidance on posing and styling.

From the moment we booked Grand Photo, her communication was quick, thoughtful, and professional. I was not sure where to even begin, but our prep phone calls really helped me wrap my head around getting ready for the big day. The quality of Karyna's work was absolutely beautiful while still natural, exceeding all of our hopes and expectations for our wedding photos.

1000% recommend booking Karyna for your special day! She is phenomenal at capturing candid moments as well as instructions for posing. She was like a second maid of honor for my wedding day and helped make the day extra special. I’m having a hard time choosing my favorite photos. She is a true artist and her attention to detail makes her stand out.
