They said it

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Zsanett as our wedding photographer, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the entire experience. From the moment we met at the welcome dinner event, her warmth and professionalism put us at ease immediately. We were so lucky she was available for the welcome dinner – she was everywhere and yet nowhere, like a shadow, and the candid photos she was able to capture made the event look even more beautiful than it was!

Zsanett’s presence on our wedding day was truly invaluable. She was warm yet firm, unafraid to order us around when need be – and it is definitely sometimes needed!! Her and her second shooter knew exactly which shots they wanted and how to get them. They were completely professional, kind, and encouraging. She managed to capture every moment, big and small, with such grace and artistry. Her ability to blend into the background while simultaneously being everywhere at once amazed everyone. We absolutely trusted that we were in the best of hands.

A wedding photographer isn’t hired because of their personality, but Zsanett is so cool, fun, and kind, she added such joy and laughter to our special day. Her friendly demeanor made everyone feel comfortable, resulting in some of the most genuine moments being captured forever. Everyone kept commenting on how incredible she was, and it’s something us as the bride and groom kept talking about after the fact! The excitement among our family and friends to see Zsanett’s work was palpable throughout the wedding day and the days following. And when we finally received our photos, we were absolutely speechless! The slideshow made us cry and the editing choices and lighting made us all look like movie stars. Or better!

In summary, working with Zsanett was an absolute delight, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. Her talent, professionalism, and genuine passion for what she does shine through in every photograph she takes. Thank you, Zsanett, for making our wedding day even more unforgettable. We hope to continue to sing your praises to anyone who considers a wedding in Antigua!!

We first met Zsanett while wedding planning in Antigua summer of 2021. We knew she was the perfect person to capture our most special moments! We went back to Antigua in February 2022 to take our engagement photos at the ruins of Las Capuchinas. She was so fun and pleasant to work with! When we received our engagement photos we were blown away! Not only did she capture the special moments, she also captured the most intricate details. We knew we had picked the right photographer for our special day.

Fast forward to July 2nd, 2022. The most important day of our lives and Zsanett captured it all!! There were so many details I missed at the wedding and Zsanett got it all! From the “getting ready” to the “speeches and reception.” Her talent is beyond measure! I couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos… and most importantly thankful that she preserved one of the most important days of our lives by capturing them in photos that will last a lifetime.

Zsanett will forever be our go-to photographer. And when we are on to the next adventure in life.. I hope she will continue to capture those special moments for us! We are forever grateful.

// Sally & Mario

Zsanett is incredible!!! We cannot recommend her enough. She is extremely talented, professional, and was our favorite vendor to work with throughout our wedding process. Her ability to capture genuine moments is outstanding and we loved every photo we got back!

// Leigh Anne & Billy

Choosing Zsanett as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. She was warm, friendly, and fun to work with, but also extremely professional and knowledgeable.

She asked questions we hadn’t even thought to consider and made suggestions that not only resulted in better photos, but a better ceremony and celebration overall. We’re so grateful we had her expertise to help guide us.

And, the photos… OH MY GOD. They’re phenomenal. We’re both a little shy and were nervous about the portraits, but she walked us through them, got great results, and even made it fun!

But we really chose her because of her skills with fast-moving event photography and candid group shots, and she blew it out of the water. She truly captured the joy and fun of our wedding celebration and caught so many amazing moments.

Going through our wedding photos now brings us so much happiness, laughter, and great memories… we look at them almost every day. Thank you, Zsanett!!!

// Annie & Gustavo

Choosing Zsanett to be our wedding photographer was the best decision ever! She speaks English so that helped with our limited Spanish in communicating our vision/expectations and vice versa.

We don’t know much about styles of photography so you can trust her creative direction; it was well worth it.

Our pictures came out so beautifully and it captured exactly what we wanted. She worked so hard to be in the right place at the right time, without interfering with the ceremony and reception or making anyone feel uncomfortable.

We are so happy that Zsanett was our photographer, to capture these forever moments that are so precious to us. We recommend Zsanett 10/10!!

// Robin & Will

1,000 out of 100, one of the best services at our wedding!
Zsanett is very sweet and easy to work with, she has a lot of energy and proactivity. She captured spontaneous moments and at the same time guided us when necessary. She knew what questions to ask to get to know each other better and capture what was most important to us on that day.
Also was very patient with my dogs and moved a lot to get the most beautiful photos.

Everyone loved the photos and we (the bride and groom) even more. Thanks for capturing us and our guests perfectly!

Zsanett will forever be our photographer.

// Monica & Brian

I have no words to express how happy I feel with the results of our pre-wedding session. Zsanett exceeded my expectations in every way; the photos seem like they’re taken from a movie.
What I value the most is how well she made us feel. We are not models, we don’t know how to pose, and the truth is she helped us at every moment and guided us in such a way that everything flowed naturally. She is an amazing photographer and I highly recommend her.
// Leigh-Ann & Jean Franco

I feel so lucky that my wedding planner connected me with Zsanett! I had a destination wedding in Antigua, Guatemala and was worried about finding the right people to help my vision come true. It took one zoom call to confirm that I wanted to work with Zsanett. She was professional, answered all my questions, and made me feel comfortable.

She did not disappoint on our wedding day. Her and her partner were amazing and it was obvious they knew what they were doing. Our wedding photos proved that as well. They came out so perfect and truly captured all the emotions we experienced that day. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!

// Monica & Brian

Our destination wedding was held in magical Antigua, Guatemala. Our selection of Zsanett Photography was an easy choice as it came by recommendation from our wedding planner. After viewing Zsanett’s work on her website we were simply blown away. Her ability to capture the essential moments is truly exceptional, so we were really excited to work with her.

Thankfully our event turned out to be a great success. All the hard work we put into it was worth it. Our guests enjoyed themselves and were thankful they were able to share it with us.

So it was no surprise that after our wedding, my wife and I were literally counting the days until we received the “your photos are ready” email. When it finally did we were not disappointed. 

Viewing the photos we were instantly taken back to that special day. The photos captured every moment and emotion perfectly. How Zsanett managed this is just a wonder. At times we barely noticed or were aware that she was snapping away. It is like she just blended in and was part of the event itself. That truly is a mark of a professional.

From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you, Zsanett. Your work is inspiring and has provided these cherished memories for us to have forever. And without hesitation or reservation, you are our 1st recommendation always. We just wished you lived in Virginia closer to us.

// Astrid & Kiko

I have hired LOTS of different photographers for my birth, family pictures, first year birthday pictures… But I have never loved pictures more than I have loved these. Zsanett was extremely friendly and was willing to walk around Antigua, was with us under the heat and shot whatever we wanted… But also gave us suggestions and tips on how to get the best pictures and angles.

I will definitely find a way to use her again for another event because I loved her so much! brought tears to my eyes when I first saw my pictures! Thank you thank you thank you for capturing our engagement more than perfectly

// Maria & Alex

Zsanett is an incredible photographer!

As a couple that usually could be more comfortable in front of the camera, she took the time to work with my wife and me, making our pictures unforgettable. I cannot imagine hiring anyone else.

So if you’re on the fence, take this as a sign to book Zsanett!

// Elaina & Matt

We chose Zsanett because she had a beautiful portfolio and was within a reasonable price range. We had a destination wedding in Antigua, Guatemala, so throughout our planning process we communicated with Zsanett over emails and Zoom calls.

Zsanett was concise with her expectations and kept open and honest communication. She had a list of questions which we answered so that she could get an idea of our style and our expectations for the photos on our wedding day.

When we finally met Zsanett in person, she was super sweet and friendly, and she kept us on track with our wedding day schedule. She was super professional and took beautiful, fun photos of our entire wedding party.

Both Zsanett and her second shooter were so kind and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera.

Thank you, Zsanett! 

// Jah Ia & Thomas

We could not recommend Zsanett enough. Not only were the photos stunning but she was such a support on our special day.

She was flexible but also helped to keep us on track to make sure we got the photos we wanted amidst all running around.

We loved working with her and would refer her to any of our friends with a special event they want to capture. Thank you so much Zsanett

// Lisa & Eric

Zsanett helped me plan and photograph my proposal to my long-time partner.

She always had a can-do attitude and her expertise and professionalism really made me feel valued when working with her. 

The images turned out better than what I had ever imagined and really appreciate all of the help and open communication she had throughout the whole process!

// Javier

Zsanett’s work is simply the best!!

She captures not only all the great moments but also all the feellings in every picture. She really knows what she is doing, so we absolutely recommend her to immortalize the most important day in your life!

// Flor & Leopold

100% recomendada. Las fotos nos dejaron impresionados y demasiado felices. La conexión que tuvimos con Zsanett nos permitió sentirnos cómodos durante toda la sesión y podes ser espontáneos. Gracias por todo y por la paciencia! No podemos esperar a que sea la boda!

// Andrea & Jose

Had a great experience with Zsanett. She was very nice and pleasant to work with. She was very professional. The pictures are amazing. We can’t just pick one favorite since there are so many great ones. She did a lot of in-the-moment shots since that’s what we wanted and they are beautiful, full of smiles, laughs and fun. Thank you for capturing our special day in such an artistic way.

// Julianna & Jessy

Working with Zsanett was an amazing experience. I’ve worked with several photographers in the past and she was by far the most impressive with her preparation, attention to details and educating me on how to make the most out of our shoot.

She scouted out beautiful locations, asked for feedback, and of course on the day of, she was easy to work with and made me feel comfortable in front of the camera.

The best part of the experience was sitting down with Zsanett to discuss the vision for my brand so that she could best assist me with the appropriate photos to help my vision come to fruition! I’d absolutely book her again in a heartbeat!

// Sharita Jennings - Founder of Get Fit Like That

From the very first meeting, we knew we wanted to hire Zsanett for the most important day of our lives. She was so professional & personable. She listened well to our wants and needs.

Leading up to the date of our wedding, her communication was excellent. She made the whole process seamless, especially with us being long distance.

During our special day, she made us feel at ease & continued to communicate very well. We loved that she had a second shooter to capture different angles.

One thing that set Zsanett apart from any other photographer we have worked with was her ability to adapt. In Antigua, the town center can be very busy & chaotic. She was excellent at changing frames or moving to a different location that wasn’t planned but would work better in the end. You want someone who knows the area & is ready to capture those moments when they come while communicating with us clearly throughout the whole process! We would hire Zsanett again purely based on her professionalism & knowledge.

We would also like to mention how great she was to work with after the day was all said and done. Her edits came on time & were organized very well. The personal link she gave us was a great touch. We had some edits for some of the pictures, and she responded to us promptly, giving us the new edits within a week and a half…. Unheard of in this industry! Don’t know how she does it, but she took care of us through the whole process.

We are very satisfied with our wedding photos… Thanks again!

// Pati & Collin

We loved Zsanett’s photos!

She was amazing to work with. We aren’t used to posing in professional photoshoots and felt quite nervous going into it, but the minute we met Zsanett, we were put immediately at ease. She is easy to talk to and is such a great listener. Most importantly, she was both patient and instructive at the same time during the photoshoot so we never felt rushed nor did we not know what to do with ourselves! We had more fun than we ever thought we would!

The images came out amazingly! We loved how the colors are and how they really capture us as a couple. Zsanett did an amazing job setting us up in the best way possible. We ended up with a nice variety of fun and romantic photos.

My boyfriend proposed to me by surprise mid photoshoot. Zsanett didn’t have a clue either and was able to switch rhythm fast and capture the moment!

We would recommend Zsanett to any of our friends and family especially to those that have never had a professional photoshoot before, just like us… We hope to have an excuse to arrange another photoshoot sometime soon!

Thank you very much for everything.

// Ildikó & Andres

We had Zsanett photograph our elopement pictures! She was amazing and the pictures turned out incredible. Highly recommend her!

// Sasha & Joe

I am so happy to have found Zsanett!! After 14 months of being apart from my fiancé due to covid, we wanted to do a reunion photoshoot and she exceeded our expectations. She did a wonderful job of capturing the feelings we wanted to ooze out of the photos perfectly.

Zsanett made us feel confident and comfortable. She laughed with us and simply made the session fun and enjoyable.

I’m so, so happy with the results! I don’t think there’s one photo she took of us that I don’t like. So incredibly thankful for the talent and hard work she put into them.

Thank you, Zsanett!

// Michelle Vásquez

Zsanett is my go to photographer in Antigua for all of my shoots! She’s done all of my branding photos for my website and social media. As an online business owner, it’s very important for my visuals to be on point and she’s the only one I trust.

Zsanett gets the concept of my brand story and really makes it come to life! Not only that, she makes me feel so confident while shooting. She knows what shots I need to actually have useful photos for my sales graphics, website photos, and social media posts so the end result is always amazing! I can use each photo for several purposes and that’s the best bang for my buck.

I highly recommend Zsanett’s photography services for anyone who runs a brand, business, or blog.

// Taylor Lane - Founder of Remote Like Me

Working with Zsanett was such a pleasure! It was our first photoshoot so were pretty nervous and she made us feel comfortable from the start. She encouraged our own ideas and collaborated on making our vision a reality!

We are truly impressed with how beautiful the photos came out ( every single one!!) and can’t wait to share the memories with our friends and families! We highly recommend Zsanett for future photoshoots in the Antigua and Lake Atitlan areas!

// Danielle & Eilan

Zsanett graciously worked us into her schedule on a holiday weekend and helped us preserve wonderful memories of family visit. She worked quickly and patiently — as we had two toddlers on the loose! The photos turned out wonderfully–a nice blend of candid and posed. So grateful for your time and creative eye, Zsanett!

// Laura Ratcliff

Zsanett is the best!! We are so glad we found her. Recently my family and I took a family trip to Antigua. The pictures came out even more beautiful than I could ever imagine. I highly recommend her!!

// Layla Hilleprandt

While looking for a photographer for my daughters Quinces, I came across Zsanett’s profile on Instagram. I viewed her page and immediately admired her work! We decided to contact her to ask if she would be interested and available in doing a Quinceañera shoot. I am so glad she was available, as the experience from beginning to end was so easy going and stress free.  

Zsanett provided me with all the details upfront, even recommended locations I may be interested in around the area of Antigua, Guatemala. When we arrived, it was a pleasure meeting her. I could not be more grateful to her and her assistant for making my daughter feel so comfortable during her shoot. By the time I returned from my trip, the pictures were ready!

We are just delighted with all the pictures, and the hardest part of this all will be choosing the one to enlarge for my home. I cannot thank you enough for the great experience, Zsanett!

// Jennifer & Kailani (the Quinceañera)

Working with Zsanett was a great experience. I’ve worked with her twice on my branding photos and each time she was able to help me achieve my vision.

From conception to execution, she made sure that we were getting everything I needed to elevate my image and brand. Always professional, always helpful and definitely knowledgeable with a real passion for brand photography!

My go-to photographer, highly recommended! Thanks so much for everything.

// Jen Bee

Hiring Zsanett – at the recommendation of our Rehearsal Dinner planner – was the best decision I made for our event.

In our initial encounter, I gave her a few hints as to what moments I was interested in capturing and she nailed them all. It was almost as if I was following her around all evening to dictate shots. But, in fact, I rarely saw her again that evening as she quietly moved through the crowd to secure the memories that I am happily sharing with family and friends.

Lastly, the artistic quality of the shoot is exceptional. Watching the resulting slide show brings me joy.

// Tim Hall

We hired Zsanett as our pre-wedding cocktail photographer in Antigua and she absolutely rocked it!

She has a gift to capture the moment and take really authentic unposed pictures. This is exactly what we were looking for and she exceeded my expectations. She did an amazing job capturing the mood as the sunset and the night photos are truly spectacular.

The photos turned out so good that we actually used them to play “What the meme”. As an added bonus she even came to shoot for fundraising activity free of charge to help raise money for local families.

// Philippe Bartu

10/10 recommend Zsanett for family photographs! She was professional but very personable and easy to work with. She managed to capture the beauty of Antigua, Guatemala and the cuteness of two wiggly toddlers and make it a positive experience. Nothing negative to say- an amazing experience and we have no regrets!

// Abigail Nehls

Working with Zsanett was the best! I was inexperienced in front of the camera, but she helped me relax and enjoy myself with concrete tips on what to do, and with her genuine and pleasant encouragement.

She clearly enjoys herself and is super passionate about what she does – the whole process, not just taking the photos, but helping people “come out” and be seen. This worldview combined with her infectious energy helped me get into it during the photoshoot. And now I can’t wait to do another one!!!

I highly, highly recommend working with Zsanett! She is very experienced and gets a lot done in a short time, and she helps you blossom. The end results are spectacular. It’s like a mirror where you see yourself at your best, and then you want to embody that best more and more. Thank you SO MUCH Zsanett!

I cannot wait to work with you again.

// Seulki Koo

Sometimes when you’re in the process of creating a fresh new look and feel for your business, a photoshoot with a talented photographer that understands your vision is just what “La Doctora” ordered. And having the opportunity to work with the extremely talented Zsanett Kovacs while I was in Antigua was an amazing experience!

As a publisher and book design professional, her ideas from a marketing standpoint – from locations to poses to the look and feel of my brandZsanett instinctively knew what to do and how to put my mind at ease during our time together, thus making the experience so much more enjoyable! I couldn’t be more pleased with the high-quality photos she produced for my business!

I highly recommend Zsanett’s photography services!

// Ronda Taylor - Founder of HeartWork Travels

I am so beyond thrilled with our photos from Antigua and it was such a pleasure working with Zsanett! She is so easy to work with and has a great eye for lighting and colors. The pictures are LOVELY!!!! There are so many great ones to choose from. Thank you so much!!!

// Angela Park

Having watched Zsanett take photos for my friend, Taylor, I knew I had to take advantage of the time I was in Antigua to finally get around to that photoshoot for my freelance business & upcoming book.

I had no idea what imagery I wanted (or needed) but Zsanett encouraged me to spend some time exploring themes and styles. This was an important step, not only to ensure the photos were on-brand but also so I think about poses and ways to move my body.

As an introvert, Zsanett pushed me where I needed it, but always in an organic way. Having never done a full photoshoot before, I was shy and constantly thinking about how I looked. Zsanka showed me a few of the photos mid-shoot, just to settle my nerves and show me how amazing they were.

The photos were so good that I had a hard time narrowing down my choices. Oh, and we had a lot of fun over the two days of shooting. Zsanett, you’re a talented artist. Thank you!

// Amanda Smith - Writer

It was a real pleasure working with Zsanett. She captured some absolutely amazing moments during our family events and made the whole experience enjoyable and totally relaxed

The photos are just perfect and the quality is really professional. We look forward to working with her again. 

// Elisa Aragon

Zsanett is a kind soul who is also a professional. She captured our first ever couple portrait session and we enjoyed every minute of it! We are so grateful for her for her!

Very grateful for the extraordinary work of Zsanett, she has captured the essence of our event with great talent. Thank you
