Karelin Studios professional photography was highly recommended by a close friend of mine as I was looking for a wedding photographer. I didn't want just and old photographer that was going to make my photos look just like everyone else's. I wanted our photos to stand out, to be unique, to catch people's eye, to be a lasting memory. I was very impressed with the portfolio and instantly knew this was what I was looking for. He was so easy to work with and came more prepared with equipment than I expected. It's great to be able to see the pictures right then and there as they are being taken and you don't have to wait weeks to hope they come out good and they sure did. As I was being sent our wedding photos they were bringing a tear to my eye as I couldn't believe how beautiful they were. He was able to capture so many moments that we will never forget, moments that were just a husband and wife being a husband and wife. I have already booked him for our maternity photo shoot, newborn photos and pretty much any major life event in the future. read more

Getting married is a once in a lifetime event. And that's why having the best photographer meant the world to my wife and I. Karelin exceeded all our expectations and then some. His service, professionalism, and craft is one of a kind. And having the best photographer is more than just taking great photos. An important part of a photographer's work is also the human element of the process. Karelin went out of his way to make us feel comfortable throughout the entire process and we felt like he truly cared about our marriage. To Karelin, you're not just another gig. To Karelin, your life moments, are his life moments. To Karelin, your photos carry lifelong weight. With all the cookie cutter studios out there, Karelin's work is truly a gem. Easy to say, we will be working with Karelin for all our photography opportunities. Our children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren will be viewing Karelin's work for decades to come. read more

In my work, I've hired and worked with dozens of photographers throughout the years, but none here in Las Vegas. When I was about to receive my MBA I needed a graduation portrait - one that would be "forever." I went online and checked out all the photographers on the north side of Las Vegas, and then wrote to a few of them to get a feel for their approach and their charges. I selected Karelin Studio and was not disappointed. They worked around my schedule, helped me find an appropriate cap and gown, were fast and professional, and the results were terrific. I heartily recommend them. Thank you all for your great work, friendly manner, and lessons about your background, discrimination in hiring, and Russian history -- all this from a photographer who's from Nicaragua! read more

We had professional headshots done by Karelin Studios. He is great with communicating both before and after the photo session and delivered our final pictures the same day. He was very professional, making tiny adjustments to both positioning and lightning to ensure it would produce the best final product. He spent the time to understand what we wanted the final product to look like and get height adjustments to work within that vision. He did photo editing and touch ups while we were still there to ensure we liked the final product. We were very happy with the pictures we received. This is the second time that we have used Karelin studios and we will use him again in the future. We highly recommend him. read more

Had such a wonderful experience using Karelin Studio for my graduation photos. I found him through Instagram and was pleasantly surprised to receive a call from him very soon after sending my inquiry. The entire experience was excellent! He worked with our schedule and was sensitive to the weather. We didn't feel rushed and Karelin was just a really nice guy that did a great job making it fun. When we saw the finished product we were shocked! The pictures were absolutely beautiful and we received a lot of compliments. The turn around time on receiving our pictures was the best I've ever had. Overall I have nothing but compliments for Karelin Studio and look forward to booking him again in the future. read more
