Yana was incredible during my proposal/engagement photoshoot. She made sure we felt welcome, included, and listened to. She captured our moment beautifully. Our photos turned out stunning and showcased everything I wanted them to. I would highly recommend booking with Masha Lou and her team for any professional photography needs.Posted on Google![]()

Masha shot my fiancé and my proposal and she was AMAZING. Not only did she get probably hundreds of pictures to choose from, she truly captured the feeling of the moment. She helped my fiancé surprise me on governor’s island and was flexible as plans changed. As someone who is pretty picky when it comes to photos, the fact that almost every shot she took was a work of art speaks to her skill and care. The results speak for themselves!+1Posted on Google![]()

Very pleased with the whole process and how the photos came out. We planned out the location and exact details of how my proposal would occur about a week in advance. Everything was smooth and the photographer did a nice job capturing many moments in Central Park. I’d highly recommend them for a proposal moment if you’re thinking about sealing the deal.Posted on Google![]()

They were great for our proposal photography! I highly recommend using them. Sasha took us around Central Park to multiple awesome stops along the way and the photos turned out great. They also were great with helping plan and find the perfect spot for the proposal. Thank you for all the help and planning!Posted on Google![]()

From booking to the session itself, everything was seamless with the Masha Lou team. Our photographer, Yana, was receptive to my plan and executed! Upon arriving at our site, she was incognito, which allowed her to capture the surprise proposal! A true professional with great depth of field, focal points, iso etc. — not to mention the turn around time of 500+ shots from our hour session? Definitely recommend & will have them in mind for future events!+2Posted on Google![]()

Masha is such a gem! She captured our proposal so perfectly. We are both not big on taking photos but she immediately made us feel so comfortable and guided us through different poses and key photo areas in Central Park. We were left with SO many wonderful photos that we can cherish for a lifetime. Additionally, Masha shared the photos so quickly so we were able to share with friends and family immediately. Thank you so much Masha for these memories - we are so grateful!Posted on Google![]()

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Masha Lou for our post-proposal photoshoot, and she was amazing! From the moment we started, she brought such great energy — upbeat, encouraging, and truly passionate about her craft. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and it honestly felt like we were just having fun together. The photos turned out beautifully — full of joy, emotion, and natural moments we’ll treasure forever. We had an absolute blast working with her and couldn’t recommend her more highly!Posted on Google![]()

Masha went above and beyond to make our surprise proposal absolutely perfect. From the moment we began planning, she was attentive, professional, and truly invested in making everything special. Her eye for detail, calming presence, and ability to adapt on the fly made the whole experience stress-free and magical. When the moment came, Masha captured every emotion with stunning clarity and care—her photos are something we’ll treasure for the rest of our lives. Not only did she document the moment beautifully, but she also helped set the mood and kept the surprise intact like a true pro. We couldn't have asked for a better person to be part of such a meaningful day. Thank you, Masha, for making our proposal unforgettable. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to capture life’s most special moments!Posted on Google![]()

Masha was incredible! She was super helpful with getting everything planned and was so easy to work with. We shot a proposal shoot on the rooftop of a hotel in NY and it was about as magical as you could imagine. All of that is a huge thanks to Masha. I would recommend booking with her for any of your photoshoots!Posted on Google![]()

My fiancé booked with Sasha for our surprise engagement and I couldn’t have asked for any better! She helped him prepare for our special moment and executed it perfectly. She later walked us around our proposal area for some more photos that came out absolutely amazing!! 10/10 experience from start to finish!! Highly recommend ◡̈Posted on Google![]()

Masha Lou Photography was absolutely incredible. She met us at the proposal spot with minimal communication needed so my fiancé wasn’t suspicious in the slightest. She captured each moment effortlessly and made sure everything looked good (hair, outfits, posing, etc.) will certainly be coming back for our wedding photos.Posted on Google![]()

Originally, the thought of planning a surprise proposal with a photographer seemed unnerving and I almost didn’t follow through with it! I’m so glad I did though. From start to finish this was SUCH an easy process. I’ve gotten so many compliments on the photos as well as each of them are incredibly beautiful. If you’re on the fence, I would say book your photo session now for whatever occasion. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!!Posted on Google![]()

She was very knowledgeable about all of the most picturesque locations in the area and really made sure that we made the most of our time together! I’m extremely grateful to the team for making this day as stress-free as possible and giving us photos that we’ll look back on for the rest of our lives!Posted on Google![]()

My new fiancé had hired Masha as a surprise photographer for our proposal in New York City. She was amazing!!! I had no idea that she was there until after the proposal, she was very discreet and helped keep it a surprise. The photos turned out amazing, and we will both cherish them forever. I’m so happy she captured the moment and will forever be thankful!!!Posted on Google![]()

Never having done a photoshoot before, I was a little apprehensive and awkward about having my pictures taken. However, Masha put me right at ease! With her guidance and suggestions, we were able to capture some amazing pictures that were a million times better, more creative, and more natural that my usual iPhone portrait shot. She even sent some tips prior to the shoot, like what props I should bring and a mood board. We did the photoshoot in Dumbo, and Masha knew the location inside and out, with great recommendations on where to take pictures to best utilize the local scenery and evening lightning. Overall, I had an amazing experience with Masha and I'd highly recommend her services!!
