Press & Feedback

WASIO photography has been published in a number of wedding publications and wedding blogs. I’m especially honored that Chicago Style Weddings (the biggest wedding magazine in the Chicago area) featured many of my features in their articles, email campaigns, and advertisements.
Below are some of the wedding blogs that photos were featured:

I am proud to be selected as Elite Vendor by Inspire a Bride

However, the biggest reward is the feedback from the couples I had the pleasure and honor to photograph their the most special day. Below are just few of comments I received recently.

GREAT PHOTOGRAPHER!I cannot say enough good things about Wasio Photography! My now husband and I were both very uneasy about selecting the right photographer for our wedding; neither of us likes to take photos in general and neither of us likes the traditional “cheesy” wedding portraits. However when we came across Wasio photography’s profile, we were both really impressed with what we saw. The pictures were beautiful; artsy and captured the moment without looking staged, exactly what we were looking for. When we met with our to-be photographer Yaneck we were impressed with him as well. He’s very professional and listened to exactly what we wanted and reassured us that he’d help us work through our concerns with how much we dislike taking photos. He spent a considerable amount of time with us during our engagement portrait session – and when we got the pictures back we were relieved, they were actually really good! We were so excited with them that we asked him to help us create a guest book with the shots he took. On our wedding day it of course rained all morning, and cleared up a tiny bit in time for our outdoor photos – but it was still pretty grey and gross looking outside. Somehow Yaneck and Julie still made the pictures look absolutely stunning. They were both extremely flexible and switched plans mid-way through the day to allow for indoor photos as well, and set up a “mini photoshoot” directly in our hotel. People that weren’t a part of the wedding actually sat around and watched these two in action, and commented on how beautiful it was – let me tell you… he definitely has an eye for this. Choosing Wasio photography to take pictures of our wedding was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Not only is he extremely talented, but he is super easy-going which helped eliminate any stress or awkwardness we had. Looking through the photos makes me smile every time, and reminisce back on how beautiful and amazing the day was for the both of us. He captured the day perfectly.

Phenomenal !!!I don’t usually feel comfortable getting my pictures taken, but when we got our engagement photos taken with Wasio photography my fiancee (now my hubby) and I had so much fun! Our engagement photos were amazing, but our photos from our wedding were phenomenal. It was more than we could ever ask for. Yaneck is extremely professional (he really knows what he is doing)! He had a list of the photos we wanted to take with the family members and friends, he had everything under control and everything was very well organized. It’s very important to connect with your photographer and we connected very nicely with Yaneck, which made it a phenomenal experience over all! Anybody who Yaneck photographs for is a very lucky couple!

I would highly recommend Yaneck to anybody, he is a great and talented photographer. I love his work and is well done, couldn’t ask for more. He has a great sense of humor and he’s easy to work with. The pictures are so awesome, that they take away your breath. I just enjoyed every minute of his service. Very on time, responsible, and knew exactly what I was looking for. For sure I will hire wasio photography again. No doubt about it!

Just My StyleAs an out of state bride, I was very nervous about choosing a photographer for one of the most important days of my life. I trusted my husband to do the job, and fell in love with Yaneck’s style upon our first meeting. He asked for details of our wedding, so he fully understood what to expect. He went to the site of our ceremony and reception days in advance and made sure there was enough natural light for his perfect pictures. He began to display our pictures on a website about a week or so after our wedding. It was nice to come back from our honeymoon and look at our pictures! Yaneck was very easy to work with, always found a way to make us smile, and extremely professional. I loved that we didn’t have to pose for many pictures, everything looked so natural. I have recommended him to many couples, and would reuse him if I had to do it all over again!
