Dalia Shilas Photographer


Photo by Barbara Simundza


Thank you for visiting my web site.
My bio, style and rates info are below.

I am a Boston based photographer specializing in documentary style coverage.

I hold a University degree in journalism from Vilnius, Lithuania, where I worked as a journalist for Lithuanian TV and Radio before I came to the US.

I have European background in the arts, journalism and photography, respect and a great sense for tradition and classic style and ability to see and capture the moments.
I am friendly, professional and unobtrusive.
A Lithuanian native, I started photography in this country more then ten years ago and successfully documented many beautiful celebrations and continue creating timeless portraits of the new families.

Always craving for the perfection and knowledge and anticipating the necessity to get familiar with the American style and tradition I studied Portrait and Wedding Photography at the New England School of Photography in Boston, the NE Institute of Professional Photography and regularly attend prof. photography seminars and workshops around the country to get the latest trends and tips.

Member of the following organizations:
Professional Photographers of America,
Professional Photographers Association of Massachusetts.

I use several different digital cameras, lenses and angles to create timeless portraits, capture the passing moments and design artsy images to tell the story.

At weddings I start an hour or more before leaving for the ceremony and document the getting ready part with all the details, anticipation, excitement, followed by the fashion and glamour bridal portraits and family portraits.

The ceremony and the reception will be covered in the most appropriate and unobtrusive manner, telling the story as it unfolds, noticing people's emotions, capturing action-reaction and all the fun, happy and real moments.

I am a photojournalist, but I do take formal family and the wedding party photos as well.
I want you to look good, relaxed and have fun while I work. I do it fast and efficiently.

Your album will be custom designed and filled with color, the timeless black and white, sepia and dual tone images that will bring back the memories and tell the story of the day.

Please view Online albums.

Please read clients letters in the Testimonials section.
They are real clients and wrote those words.

It is my joy and privilege to capture your memories.
