The Absolute Best

I cannot speak more highly of Wolfgang and Chiaki. They are true artists who captured the beautiful moments of our wedding day through exceptionally high quality and creative photos. Throughout the wedding planning process they were incredibly responsive and collaborative, and met with us to scope out vantage points we liked at our venue before the wedding. We were a little nervous about being able to capture photos that highlighted us as a couple and our wedding party enjoying the moments of the day in the midst of a very busy city filled with tourists, but all of our photos were taken with such thoughtfulness and ideal angles, locations, and positioning that the city served as a beautiful backdrop while the real focus of the photos was on us and the wedding party. They also had wonderful ideas of photos / poses to take and traveled to several locations in the city with us on the wedding day to capture a few special shots we were dreaming about. They are top notch, and we were so lucky to have them part of our wedding!

Stunning Photos & Awesome Team

Wolfgang, Chiaki, and Katya captured our Brooklyn wedding and did a flawless job. Their style is ethereal and they are each true professionals in their work. We loved working with them and we're so happy we chose them for our wedding day.

Working with Wolfgang throughout the planning process was great. He is kind, professional, and attentive to details. He was also incredibly responsive each time we had a question or concern, and planning with him was really seamless.

A Day of Bliss did an incredible job in capturing all the special moments we wanted and every detail without ever feeling invasive or intrusive. We never felt they were in the way in our private moments as a couple and with family on the wedding, but they all did a great job of creating special moments for us throughout the day and making sure it was captured. They were also really great with all the more formal portraits - nothing felt too staged or fake, and they did a great job of making everyone feel comfortable and capturing authentic moments.

Our photos turned out absolutely stunning! They really captured all vibrancy and color of an Indian wedding. They caught small moments throughout each event. There are so many photos that you can really feel the emotion jump out of the photos. They also took the effort to get great pictures of all of our guests, something we and all our families really appreciate. Lastly, they did an incredible job with photos of our venue, decor, vibe, food, etc.

We are absolutely floored with how the photos turn out and are so thankful for A Day of Bliss's team. Don't hesitate to work with them!!

After photographing iconic fashion models like Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell, Iman, and Veronica Webb, Wolfgang turned his camera towards a different kind of beauty – newlywed bliss.

When he is not busy providing award-winning wedding photography services, Wolfgang has worked with the New York City Opera, J.P. Morgan Chase, Sony, Deborah Norville of Inside Edition, Chaka Khan, and countless other professional and celebrity clients.
