"Polina has been photographing our family for years now. We can not even imagine hiring anyone else neither for portraits nor for a family event. Polina is extraordinary in her ability to capture special moments that are cherished for years. She is easy going and her love for people and the photography craft is contagious and visible in every picture. The best part is that we have a whole collection of photo books that Polina designed for us from all these years. Kids love going through the albums and recalling their various childhood experiences." - Hanna S

"Our kids change so quickly and it’s so important for us to capture such special family moments in the places that are meaningful to us. It’s also a chance for us all to be in the pictures, which otherwise never happens! We truly cherish these photos. Thank you, thank you!!" - Rachel F

"We received the book and USB this morning. Stunning!! The book is just perfect. We've looked at it several times already and cannot wait for Ellie to be able to look at it when she's bigger and see what a cute little peanut she was! And the USB - what a gorgeous surprise! We absolutely adore the box as a cherished place we can keep the USB of our photos and display in our home. It's wonderful!! Thank you again - it was such a pleasure to work with you and we look forward to working together in the future as our family grows and possibly expands!" - Meaghan C
