Dalia and her assistant did such an amazing job capturing not only the big moments during our wedding, but also all of the small things that could of been missed by someone who was not as dedicated as Dalia. I would highly recommend her to do anyones event.

Hi Dalia!

I did receive my album this week....it's amazing! The photos are so clear and really jump out at you, as if you were still at the event! It makes such a difference seeing it as a finished product...the website does not do it justice!

I am so happy that you created our album for us. Keith and I had such a wonderful time looking through it; even after just 5 months, it made us nostalgic! I have looked through it probably 20 times over the last two nights, and I know it will continue to be a ritual for some time...it's just so beautiful.

Not only does this album bring us immense joy at this present moment, I know that it will continue to fill our hearts with happiness over the course of our lives. It will be such a treat to be able to share it with future generations. You have truly blessed us with a precious heirloom, and we couldn't be more thank full.

Again, thank you so much. I am beyond ecstatic with the outcome of our wedding album. Every picture is breathtaking, and every precious moment was captured.

I will definitely be in touch in the future....your work is wonderful!

Everyone loved the pictures you took at the wedding (we sent the link to everyone). I really want to say that the pictures were so well done and with little interference into the solemnity of the occasion. We never felt overwhelmed by the picture taking. The candid shots were more than we could have asked for. Again many thanks.

Dear Dalia,
Thank you so much for the part you and your lovely colleague played in making our daughter's wedding celebration on December 18, 2005 at the MIT Faculty Club such a beautiful and memorable event.
I know that Alison felt that working with you during the entire process, from the initial planning to the actual wedding, was a delightful experience.
The photographs are gorgeous! Our friends and family have all commented on the beautiful, creative and artistic pictures. You were really able to capture the spirit of the day!
I am so glad to have met you and hope our paths will cross again some day. Please pass on all my best wishes to each and everyone person involved in making Alison and Michael s wedding day so special.

We were very pleased with the photos - you did an absolutely beautiful job and captured moments that we didn't even know about. And I can't believe how many there were!

Dalia,
We all had such a good time with you during the session. Thank you so much for everything! The kids enjoyed themselves. Ben is still talking about how great it was and he was impressed with your insightful, artistic talents! (He himself, is very artistic and creative.) The photos you took were so great - I only wish you could have been our wedding photographer!

Dalia-
I've been thinking about you- we were in Wellesley the other day and it was beautiful and clear and the leaves are at the same colors they were when you took our family photos last year at this time! The kids still remember that day with great fondness. We can't wait to work with you again. EVERYONE who sees the portraits either at our house or at the office sworns over your work- they are just incredible works of art!!

Dear Dalia,
Thank you so much for the beautiful photography services you and your assistant provided for my wedding. The pictures that I was able to see online are great - exactly what I had hoped for! Chris and I were both saying how remarkably unobtrusive you both were. Considering some of the "action" shots this is a particular impressive feet!
Please let me know if I can provide a reference.
Best,
Margot Perera

Dalia, thank you so much for the excellent job that you did for Margot and Chris' wedding. We've had so much fun looking at the proofs and reliving the wonderful day and evening.

Dear Dalia,

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the wonderful job you and your staff did to preserve our wedding. The photos are absolutely breathtaking. You captured every detail for us to remember, from the lace on my dress to the flowers in the gardens.

There in not a single "bad" photo of anyone, even the candid shots are as lovely as the formal shots. You caught the lil giggles and shared moments so well.

You and your staff were smiling and happy and saw everything with an artistic eye, not run of the mill shots. My guests commented on your professionalism and how we didn't even know you were there some of the times.

The albums are just beautiful! Everyone loves them and is so impressed with the work you did. It's such a unique way of doing an album and so much more interesting, they just can't get over it!!

I have never been happier with photos and I can promise you that we will be driving from Jersey to Massachusetts for our formal family pictures, I think a 6 hour drive is well worth it :)

Thank you for giving us a cherished remembrance of our day, you caught the essence of our wedding and it shows in the photos.

Wishing you all the best,

Dalia is straightforward, professional, and gets the job done. Her work is very fine, and she'll design a schedule with you that guarantees you won't disappear on your guests for 2 hours for the photo shoot of the family.

Dalia, we and everyone else who got a mini loved the albums. Thank you for all your help!

My husband and I are thrilled with the pictures that Dalia took. Not only are they beautiful, but I feel that she was able to capture all the emotions of the day - the excitement, the heartfelt happiness, the silly moments, the feelings of friendship and support. Through her photos I have been able to relive the happiest day of my life. I would highly recommend Dalia - she and her assistant are extremely professional, yet warm. They'll capture those perfect pictures without being obtrusive and I appreciated the fact that she looked like she was enjoying what she was doing. My entire family was very impressed with her and could not be happier with the pictures. Friends and family who were unable to make it to the wedding appreciate the pictures being available on-line. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wishes to capture the moment as accurately and vividly as she is able to do. We could not have asked for a better photographer, or better pictures of our wedding.
I can recommend Dalia with complete confidence that you'll be extremely happy with your choice.
Thank you Dalia for all your hard work!
Sincerely,
Rebecca and Scotty Manor

"Dalia has an excellent eye to detail, is extremely professional, and was able to get everyone together for the important shots and fade into the background for candids later in the evening. Overall an outstanding experience for us as the wedding couple".

Dalia, I just want to thank you and your assistant for being such wonderful people and photographers.
It was a joy to have you both around and you made us all feel so comfortable.
Both Rafael and I love the pictures - but so does everybody else in the family!

"Dalia Shilas came to me as a recommendation from a friend and I can't begin to express how fortunate I am that she was able to capture my wedding day in such an amazing way.

I'm absolutely thrilled with her work! I have never seen such creative and beautiful photography. Even the reception and dancing photos are like little elegantly captured moments.

Dalia is an inspired artist with a unique eye for detail and as her client you have a special opportunity for the two of you to develop a friendship as you correspond about your wedding day or special event.

She has a way of charming your guests with her sweet personality, but accomplishes her role as photographer with skills unsurpassed by any other seasoned professional and is able to maintain organization in the interest of time and yet is not obtrusive in any way.

She made me feel beautiful and I can't thank her enough!"

"Finally back from our trip to Costa Rica which was amazing. We had a fabulous time. It was so much fun to check out the pictures online while we were away. It is such a great feature, everyone has been raving about it. Finally got the proofs from my mom yesterday...of course we absolutely love them. They are amazing and we are so impressed with how you captured every little piece of the day. We had no idea that Justin's grandfather snuck in a cigar! We can't thank you enough for your unbelievable hard work that day. We are so thrilled with the results."

"We wanted to thank you for the outstanding job you did for our wedding ceremony and reception on October 12, 2002. Every photograph in our proof album came out beautiful. We were surprised to see some of them because we didn't even realize you were right there capturing the moment. Your attention to detail and extreme professionalism are reflected in all of our prints. Having them on-line has been absolutely wonderful for our family and friends and everyone has raved about your talent. We look forward to drawing on your experience and creativity when design our wedding album. We would highly recommend you to anyone. Thank you and wish you all the best."
