Dwi has made memories for life for us. She is so talented and so true in her craft. The pictures brought tears to my eyes. Absolutely beautiful! I highly highly recommend her.-NatashaView Photographer profile
I visited Seoul briefly and, on a whim, decided to book a photoshoot because I had never done one professionally before. I thought it would be an opportunity for self-care, confidence, and appreciation.

Dwi delivered exceptionally well. Her compassion and care alone provided half of the healing I needed. She guided me through my travel logistics, helped with apps to navigate Seoul, and recommended vendors. Even when I couldn’t make payments sometimes, she paid for me upfront and trusted me to reimburse her later. She even walked me through the subway system when I arrived and helped me get a T-money card.

The photoshoot itself was a dream. Dwi accompanied me to a hanbok store with the most heartwarming staff who helped me select this beautiful queen’s wedding hanbok.

When we arrived at the Gyeongbokgung Palace for the shoot,...-Abii-TahView Photographer profile
Such a talented and kind photographer! She made us feel comfortable, and the photos turned out amazing – natural, warm, and full of emotion. Highly recommend! She was the one who captured our proposal, and the memories she created for us are truly priceless.-Petru & IrinaView Photographer profile
Dwi, was SUPER amazing! She was super nice, caring, and informative. She was such a great help in planning my surprise engagement, capturing the moment, and even afterwards doing our photoshoot. Dwi was amazing at communicating everything, even while we were on opposite sides of the world. She has such an amazing eye and talent for this. She is the absolute best.-JustinView Photographer profile
Absolutely wonderful — I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Diwi carried herself with such professionalism and kindness, thoughtfully guiding me through every decision. The shoot was a complete success, and most importantly, so was the proposal! She took both mine and my fiancé’s needs into consideration during the shoot, making sure we were comfortable and happy throughout. The final photos turned out absolutely stunning.-JohnView Photographer profile
Dwi was truly a pleasure to work with; she completely understood the importance of how special the occasion was and went above and beyond expectations. She offered suggestions which would enhance the shoot, and also listened to our needs as well. She constantly checked if she was meeting our expectations and made this a proposal to remember forever. The photos were done beautifully. She was very responsive and had a quick turnaround. I definitely would work with her again and completely recommend her.-RayView Photographer profile
It was amazing! I highly recommend Dwi as your photographer. She was incredibly helpful—suggesting locations, guiding poses, and more. But most importantly, the pictures are absolutely immaculate!-ZakharView Photographer profile
Had an absolutely amazing photography session in Seoul, doing my proposal and vacation shots in Nami Island! Hired Dwi for the session and I was very impressed by her photography skills that captivated both my fiancee and me! Her experience tells it all as she knows the tips and tricks to all the good shot locations and directed us so smoothly and effortlessly in our posing, yet delivered the kind of shots we wanted, which we are very satisfied with it! Most of all, her service was impeccable as she went above and beyond by going the extra mile to host us and offering to drive us to Nami Island! This was not part of the package, but nonetheless she offered to give us a ride as our hotel is nearby to where she stays. We definitely had a fun and enjoyable time of photography session with her, who has become a friend to us! I will 100% highly recommend her for an...-Joe & EvelynView Photographer profile
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Yuliya for my surprise proposal photoshoot on Nami Island and I can't recommend her enough!!! She was incredibly flexible, accommodating to my changing schedule with ample notice. As someone not from Korea, I was also grateful that Yuliya speaks fluent English, making communication super easy. The photos were stunning!! Professional, beautiful, and captured the moment perfectly. She also gave great suggestions for photo spots and poses, making the whole experience exciting and stress-free. If you're looking for a motivated and professional photographer who's flexible and easy to work with, Yuliya is a no-brainer!-Richard N.View Photographer profile
Dwi was such a pleasure to work with! From the start, she was great at communicating and coordinating the location/logistics of where to meet at Gyeongbokgung Palace for our photos. We had a large extended family (15 people, including young children), and she was very flexible with us. The photos are stunning, and I highly recommend Dwi!-JoannaView Photographer profile
