Leo Timoshuk Wedding Photography

My fiancé and I had an absolutely wonderful experience in working with Leo at our engagement photo shoot. Our photos were done at the end of October, making the outside scenery rich in fall colors. Leo is full of energy, enthusiasm and passion. When working with him you can really tell how much he enjoys his work, and that he is in fact a true artist. I will never forget the experience of the shoot itself and how much fun my fiancé and I had. There were many of laughs had by all! Leo’s attitude and energy just has a way of making you very comfortable. When we received our pictures, I couldn’t believe how great they came out… I couldn’t stop looking at them! The different angles and use of lighting were amazing. Leo has an eye for capturing some really beautiful moments. When showing some friends and family, they couldn’t believe how breathtaking the photos were. They told me that they thought we belonged in a magazine. We couldn’t be happier with our engagement photos and I can’t wait to work with Leo again this summer when he shoots our wedding.

Thank you Leo!

Leo Timoshuk is an amazing photographer. He has everything you could ask for in a photographic professional. He has top notch equipment to ensure the moments are always captured perfectly. He has an outgoing personality to make you laugh and feel comfortable. He has an amazing artistic vision for capturing the perfect pictures in any location you desire. He is open to any ideas or suggestions you have but is not shy in recommending great poses or ideal lighting locations. I could go on forever but lastly, he is an amazing editor. He fine-tuned our engagement session pictures and when we saw the finished product we were speechless. We could not be happier with the work from Leo Timoshuk Photography!

Leo was INCREDIBLE! He came two hours early and worked his butt off all day getting the best shots possible of our big day :) Since day one he has been nothing but professional... It is completely obvious after one conversation that he is passionate about photography. His website speaks volumes for the quality of his work. I would not hesitate to recommend Leo to ANYONE!!

My Husband and I also rented his Photobooth for the wedding and it had RAVE reviews from our guests. It was great for both the kids we invited and the adults. Not only do we have the best candid shots of our friends and family (including my Husband's 84 year old grandma) but we had many guests say how much fun it added to the day. Unlike the typical small booth, it is a large backdrop (about 10-15 feet) and an actual high resolution camera with a remote control. We were able to have 12 adults fit in one...

My fiancé and I absolutely LOVED the job Leo did on our engagement photo shoot and we’d rate him a 10 out of 10! He took our pictures in Taughannock State Park on Cayuga Lake in the middle of the fall foliage peak. The colors he captured are stunning and he highlighted all our best features :) His enthusiasm is totally contagious and he really got us into the spirit of the day and made us feel SO comfortable! And the pictures came out absolutely amazing and a thousand times better than we ever thought they would!! He is great to work with, replies very promptly to emails and calls, and is really flexible and willing to work around our schedule. He even kept an eye out for us regarding the peak foliage weekend since we live several states away. He has an incredible eye for amazing shots so the pictures came out absolutely incredible!!! We are overjoyed and SO excited to have Leo also shoot our wedding day next year. We went a little over our budget to get Leo and now after seeing the pictures I am SO glad we did, he is the BEST!!!! He went above and beyond our expectations :)

Leo (and his work) is amazing! We loved his work from day one and never seriously considered anybody else. He is so enthusiastic about his work that everybody can tell; we had people tell us during and after the wedding how fun Leo was and how much you could tell he loved his work. Everybody got along with him, and we loved the way he just fit in with the entire day. His photos are very natural looking, which is one of the reasons we loved his work so much. He is also very thorough about covering weddings. When I look back through the photos, I can remember everything so clearly, and I know that I will appreciate his thoroughness even more years down the road! He is very professional and he returned our fully edited photos in the time frame that he promised. He arrived to our sites early and stayed late to make sure he captured every last detail of the day. He is absolutely great to work with. We have loved every part of our experience with Leo and we are so glad we chose him to capture memories from the most important day of our lives!

Leo was an absolutely outstanding photographer!! :) We booked him for both our engagement shoot & our wedding. My husband, the wedding party & I loved him & his assistant! They were more than photographers, they were the perfect addition to our wedding party. Leo was prompt & didn't rush us. Instead he made sure to capture every precious moment of the day until we were satisfied. He was very attentive & patient even when our massive family all swarmed him to get their picture with us. He was upbeat & outgoing & willing to go above & beyond to get the perfect shot. From the beginning, from our engagement session when we first got to work with him & all throughout our wedding, he put us at ease & made us & everyone feel comfortable so that every shot captured us perfectly & was natural, unposed & just perfect. His professionalism was outstanding, before, during & after the wedding. The pictures were ready before we knew it & they were stunning! He captured more than photos. They had life, color, crispness, feeling, emotion & all the love & magic of our special day! We couldn't ask for more! :) The wedding passed before we knew it but we always can relive it with the priceless memories & moments that Leo captured for us, not to mention the breathtaking album that we'll always have to treasure in the future years to come! :) With Leo you get more than a photographer, you get to see true passion & creativity at its best. I've even had the pleasure to see him work with many married couples that I am friends with & he constantly wows me with his work. He truly & genuinely cares & loves his work & all the couples that he gets the opportunity to meet & work with.

Leo was amazing! He really went out of his way to give us a fun experience & the pictures turned out beautiful - everyone was complimenting how breathtaking they are & asking who our photographer was. Our wedding was on September 2nd and by the middle of October the pictures were ready, that was fast! Throughout the few months that we worked with Leo he was always very prompt about answering any questions and meeting our requests. It was such a great decision to have him be our wedding photographer. His packages are priced high, but compared to other photographers I’ve met with, you really do get soooo much for the money, definitely worth it! Wedding pictures are an extremely important investment, one to splurge on & get the best, which is hands down Leo Timoshuk Photography.

Words cannot describe how amazing Leo Timoshuk is! We used Leo for our wedding and it would not have been the same without him. He went way above and beyond the package that we agreed on. He was by our side for the entire day capturing every moment. He is so incredibly talented. All of my wedding party loved having him by our side. He was creative and fun and all of his hard work is so evident in the photos that he took. I posted a few on facebook and people that I have not spoken to in ages have reached out to tell me that I have the most beautiful wedding pictures they have ever seen (and some of them have wedding photos of their own!). He was so awesome in the planning process and helping to choose creative places to take photos from. We ended up going to a barn and taking the most amazing photos. But what was so awesome was that Leo saw a hill and just had on stand on top of the hill and everyone keeps raving about the pictures on the hill- who would have thought? He is so incredibly creative and talented and has great vision. We also took photos on a golf course, marina, hay stacks, at the church, hotel, etc. We were all over the place, but Leo worked so effectively and efficiently that he got all of the great shots without taking out time for us to enjoy our wedding. One of the best things he did was recommend his photobooth. It is a full backdrop unlike a traditional photobooth with a clicker to take your own photos. He brought so many props and our guests cannot stop talking about it even three months after the wedding. By the end of the wedding day, Leo had a slideshow of some of the photos from the day that told the story of our wedding. I loved this and so did the guests. Then, just a couple days after the wedding, Leo had given a slideshow of the photobooth too!! He got the pictures to us so quickly after the wedding too. Then he came to NYC and did another amazing shoot!! So edgy and romantic!!

REVIEW for ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS!!!!!!!!!!
If you are looking for a photographer that is willing to go above and beyond then search NO MORE. Leo just recently took my engagement pictures and they were absolutely amazing. He was extremely accommodating, professional, friendly and always ready to capture EVERY SINGLE MOMENT! My fiance and I brought our yellow lab along and Leo was so excited to work with our dog. Now, let me tell you capturing the very best of two people and the dog is a challenging task in it's self and Leo made it look easy as pie. His turn around time to see the pictures was extremely impressive and I look forward to working with him again next May.
Leo by far, has been my favorite vendor to work with during my wedding planning process! I promise you will not be disappointed by him.

Leo was such a great asset to our wedding. He captured EVERY little details, was dynamic and extremely dedicated. He goes above and beyond to satisfy his customers. It is money well spent; I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND LEO!!!

We spent A LOT of time looking at different photographer’s websites, but kept finding ourselves back at Leo’s site looking through all his wedding photography. We wanted someone who would be sure to capture all of our special moments, but also to be artistic while doing that. We didn’t want, boring wedding photos --- and that is one of the main reasons we went with Leo.

All the wedding blogs and books, etc tell you over and over to make sure you pick the right photographer – and we definitely feel like we did! We knew that the right photographer was Leo as soon as we met him. He is a professional at his craft, has great technique, and is fun and great to work with. We did our engagement session with him first about 8 months before the wedding, which really gave us a feel for how he works and also he took that time to get to know us as a couple as well!

Then came the wedding. Leo was in constant contact with us before the wedding and always pleasant and promptly available to answer any questions we had about how to plan for the day etc. On our wedding day, Leo had to drive over 4 hours to get to us! And he arrived early! All day he worked tirelessly to capture ALL of the details of our wedding, from start to finish (plus some things even we were too busy to notice on the day of).

Everyone in the wedding party and our families raved about working with him and that they didn’t even really mind all the photos because they were fun and not just your boring posed photos. And all of that shows in the photos as well!!

Leo did an awesome job at capturing all of the images that we will want to remember years from now. The reality is that once it’s all over and the day comes to an end …. after all the hard work, planning and excitement … we realize that you end up with two things: your marriage and your wedding photos. And we are thrilled to say we are absolutely happy with both of them! Thanks Leo! K&B 07-28-12

I wanted to start off by saying Leo is at the TOP of my list for amazing photographers. Not only is his work above and beyond amazing, his personality and up beat character make your day that much more enjoyable. He knows what you want, but you will be very pleasantly surprised because your photos will be even better then what you ever expected. I had actually won a photoshoot with him, for my engagement photos. And even though i wasn't paying him he made the pictures AMAZING, they are absolutely, perfectly, beautiful! What was supposed to be a one hour session turned into two hours, and all of the shots were incredible. Booking Leo will be the best decision you make, for any occasion. You will not be disappointed! So if you're searching for a fabulous photographer, search no more; You've found the one.

Excellent!!! Made us feel at ease during the engagement session!! Got our vision and understood our desires!! :)

Having worked with other event photographers, I thought I knew what to expect but Leo exceeded all expectations. His eye for detail and for knowing what was important to capture and his unobtrusive way of organizing people into the best groupings, made the results outstanding.

It was a delight working with him and everyone involved was so pleased with the results he produced. Leo, thank you for making a memorable event truly memorable.

Wow what can i say.... Leo did such an amazing job photographing my wedding. We are so happy with the pictures, they came out lookng amazing. He captured every moment of our wedding. We had alot of fun with him. Leo is very easy to work with. I love his work and i wouldnt of wanted anyone else to shoot my wedding. Thank you so much leo you are the best!!!! I am the happiest bride with the pictures :)

I looked at over a hundred photographers from Buffalo, Rochester, Ithaca, and Syracuse before I chose Leo, and I'm so glad I went with him! We chose him because of his enthusiasm and professionalism, and the consistent quality of his work, which is evident on his website/blog and facebook. We expected great photos, but we did not expect his over-the-top enthusiasm to capture all of our special moments. He was literally running the whole 10 hours to get every moment from every angle, but with a smile on his face the whole time. Even my bridal party loved him by the end of the day. He also brought his "crazybooth" for us, which was the hit of our party. We had people texting us asking when the photos would be up the next morning! Leo had them up on facebook within 4 days. Leo came early, stayed late, and went out of his way to make sure he knew us and exactly what we wanted. We saw a few photos in his camera, which all looked amazing, and we can't wait to see the rest. I would recommend him in a heartbeat to another bride!

Leo has been beyond flexible and helpful with our wedding! He actually took the time out of his time to fly down to Florida to do our wedding. He was so efficient with getting all the pictures done in a timely matter at every location that we had to take them. Being that we live in Florida and that the weather was super sticky and humid, Leo made sure that the outside pictures didn't take longer than necessary. He was so good at capturing the best photos. He would literally be on the grass on all fours to make sure he captured the most beautiful one. I really could not have asked for a better photographer!

Leo is one of the best photagraphers i had the privelage to meet and to know. To be honest, i would recommend him for any occasion. I would even buy a ticket for him to fly down here and take pics. Many people would say that he could be quite expensive, but with the pics that he does and how he checks and edits every single one with his art and quality work, its sooooo worth it. Money doesnt matter. Its the work that does. Hes awesome, talented and works to his expectations. So for people out there that are getting married and are having a hard time picking a photagraphy; Leo is the man that can help. Reason why is because we had a photagraphy before him for the wedding and he quit on us a week before the wedding happened. Leo came to the rescue and saved the day. True story, not making it up. He has a wonderful family and hot photos. check him out on facebook and on his website at leotim.com. Thanks Leo your the best. cake, frosting and sprinkles on top. The End

Leo was an excellent photographer. I would highly recommend him to ANYONE. He has a wonderful eye for the "right" moment and is extremely professional. There is no way you could be disappointed by having Leo as your photographer.
