Wedding•Reviewed on April 21, 2022•From Brooklyn, NY
Blaga and her staff were very professional, creative and fun!
We hired them for photos and video at our wedding in Brooklyn. During our wedding there were thunderstorms, so the original plan to shoot outside before hand was difficult. The staff improvised and found alternatives - once the weather cleared up, the team escorted us outside quickly and took some wonderful shots. They came early and made sure we were satisfied the entire time. We would strongly recommend hiring them for your next event!

Bat Mitzvah•Reviewed on June 28, 2014•From Melville, NY
Absolutely Amazing! There are many photographers out there, but most are not artists. Blaga is very talented and accommodating and puts her heart into the event. She handled my daughters Bat Mitzvah which had about 90 adults and 50 kids. Photos were fantastic and creative. Much more exciting than what you will see from the average event photographer. We also had her put together an amazing montage which integrated music videos and personal images we had provided. It was a big hit at the party. Blaga also arrived extra early for portrait photos. She was there waiting for us when we arrived in the morning. I would highly recommend working with Lush Life Photography.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 7, 2014•From Cranford, NJ
Blaga is the consummate professional. She did her work during a four hour party, stealthily circulating the ballroom while capturing the most important actions of the event. The finished product was of the highest quality and one that has created a lasting memory. I give her my highest recommendation and hope to use her again in the future.

VIDEO AND PHOTOGRAPHY- Very nice to work with. She can deliver exactly what you ask for. Even without direction she manages to do something well. Blaga is very professional, friendly, patient, easy going and she is responsive. She is such a pleasure. I highly recommend her and encourage anyone to giver her a try. I don't write reviews but I am more than happy to promote what I think is a really good service. Have one conversation and you will not turn back.

Blaga at Lush Life was great! I hired her last minute and she came through with flying colors. She was on time and ready to go, she asked me what pictures I wanted and made some picture suggestions I didn't think of. I would hire her again for my next event. I highly recommend Lush Life Photography & Film.

Church Service•Reviewed on September 8, 2013•From Jersey City, NJ
I was very happy with the video Blaga did for me. We talked about what I wanted and she edited down about 2 hours of film into a few minutes that hit all the high points. The quality was great, you can definitely tell that a professional did it. She also took a few portrait shots which also came out great. I would hire her again for future events.

Blaga communicated a lot. She behaves courteously and professionally She's passionate about getting you what you want. She spent a LOT of time at the event in order to make sure she had what she needed.
I gave her an overall talent grade of 4 because i have not yet seen the final product.
very fair pricing.
Hire her without reservation.

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on November 1, 2015•From Lexington Park, MD
Blaga, was absolutely fabulous she always had her camera and accommodated all my guest! She was so friendly and arrived an hour early and was patient with all the children. My guest raved about her professionalism and how excellent she was with the kids and was always taking pictures, there wasn't a time she wasn't without her camera. If I have an event in the near future, I will definitely be requesting her services!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 10, 2015•From New York City, NY
Blaga was extremely professional; I even forgot she was there! The venue was small and cozy yet she was never in the way and barely noticeable, but the photos she provided, all 300+ of my party were fantastic! She captured warm, genuine and even quirky moments that I missed being the host. I love the way she captured some scenes; very unique. I would totally recommend her to anyone!

Event•Reviewed on December 22, 2014•From New York City, NY
I was recommended to Blaga very highly by a Gigmasters performer as I planned on proposing to my girlfriend in NYC & I wished for the event to be videoed/ edited with style. The fact this individual was willing to risk his reputation by doing so speaks volume of how confident he was in her ability & I can gladly say I am now too.
From the first correspondence, I knew I was dealing with a professional who could deliver what I had in mind. True to form she did with ease. Now my fiancée & I can relive the moment captured so well, because on the day it was a blur!
Thank you for everything Blaga, we’ll cherish the video forever.
All the best,
Craig & Vikki

Blaga was a pleasure to work with. Shewas professional, timely, courteous and her assistant and her were both very personable. She captured all our special moments and I look forward to receiving the final product very soon as I just got married yesterday. So far super happy with everything and happy with her services. She gave us an amazing price quote for the day. She is very sweet and was always quick to be available to me through email/phone/text. A courteous and talented artist.

Wedding•Reviewed on May 9, 2016•From Elkridge, MD
My name is Lauren Hughes and I had the pleasure of using Lush Life Film for our wedding videographers. In my search, I had came across their website. Blaga was my point of contact and she was excellent and quick with responses. The prices were very affordable and offered plenty for the value! 2 videographers filmed our wedding. They didn't miss a key moment or detail. When we received our long version and trailer I almost cried! It was beautiful! Every emotion was captured and felt. The finished product was so clear and flowed nicely. Blaga answered and met every request. My husband and I are extremely pleased! Great work and customer service!

Wedding•Reviewed on November 4, 2013•From New York City, NY
I found Blaga on Gigmasters with barely a week to go before my wedding was to happen. Not only was she available, but her rate was unbelievably reasonable and she even helped me find 2 musicians for our ceremony. She took care of all of the coordination of the music for me at no extra charge. She was always in the right place for shooting. I received my video less than 2 weeks after my event and I cried all over again as if my wedding were here again. She captured every moment that I could ever hope would be in my video. The quality was absolutely amazing. She was so helpful and friendly the entire process. Could not have asked for anything more from her.

Holiday Party•Reviewed on June 6, 2016•From New York City, NY
On 12/18/15 I booked Lush Life Photography & Film for my company holiday party. It was a 4 hour event from 7-11 PM at a NYC hotel for 120+ guests. At first, I was a little worried because throughout the night I felt like I did not see too many photos being taken, but the week after the event Blaga sent us 100+ photos & a video that highlighted speeches, memorable moments, and raffles throughout the night. Blaga was like a fly on the wall! Totally professional and not invasive, but still captured everything. Not to mention the music she chose for the video was perfect. There were a few photos that has a weird photo effect, but nothing we could not deal with.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on February 26, 2017•From Dayton, NJ
Blaga is fantastic!! From the very beginning of contacting her all the way through to receiving our photos and video, she was extremely quick in responding to all my questions. She was prompt to arrive to my party (arrived even before I did) and did a wonderful job of capturing every single moment - both posed and candid. Within 2 weeks of the party, she had both the edited photos and video to us and was in constant communication the entire time, asking about our preferences. She is easy to work with, reliable, has a sweet disposition, and her work is awesome - would definitely recommend Blaga and Lush Life!!
