San Francisco Wedding Photographer | Bay Area, CA
I document weddings at City Hall and across the Bay Area with a quiet, observational approach - focusing on real moments as they naturally unfold.
From intimate ceremonies to full-day celebrations, the work is about presence, timing, and the atmosphere of the day, rather than staging or directing it.

THEE BEST PHOTOGRAPHER I HAVE WORKED WITH! Gleb was the absolute best to work with, his energy is infectious and my guests kept saying “wow he’s good”. He photographed my wedding for 200-250 guests and went above and beyond what I wanted. He gives clear directions and does anything it takes to get the perfect shot. You can tell he absolutely loves what he does! His quality of work is top-tier premium, especially for the price! His pricing for what he does is unheard of especially in San Francisco. He arrives always very punctual in preparation to get the most of the allotted time and he KNOWS lighting so well that every photo looks so good without editing. What I am most shocked about is how fast he sends the hundreds of photos to me! He takes so many and they all look great! All my guest were so surprised that I was able to send them the photos that fast! I feel I found a hidden gem in the wedding industry and will recommend him to several people in the Bay Area. - Saloni Shah⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We’ve had the absolute pleasure of working with Gleb twice - for our wedding photoshoot at San Francisco City Hall in October 2023 and again for our maternity session in January 2026. We truly cannot recommend him enough! Not only is he incredibly talented, but he also makes the entire experience so much fun and completely stress-free. From the moment the shoot starts, his energy, warmth, and professionalism put you at ease, which makes such a difference in front of the camera. Hlib has an exceptional eye for lighting, poses, and scenery. He knows exactly how to use the surroundings to create images that feel natural, elegant, and timeless. Every shot looks thoughtfully composed, yet the process feels effortless and relaxed. Most importantly, he captures real emotion and genuine moments — the photos don’t just look beautiful, they feel meaningful. Both our wedding and maternity galleries are something we’ll treasure forever. If you’re looking for someone who is creative, detail-oriented, and an absolute joy to work with, Hlib is the photographer you want. We’re so grateful to have had him document such special milestones in our lives!

Wedding Photographer in San Francisco
We don’t stage your day or try to turn it into something it’s not.
We pay attention to what’s already there - the way things unfold, the true reactions.
From City Hall weddings to longer celebrations across the Bay Area, we move quietly through the day, following light, timing,
and whatever is actually happening instead of trying to control it.
The idea is simple: photos that still feel true when you look at them years later - not because they are perfect, but because they remember how it felt.
