Bio
Ben Prusky
Lydia is an awesome photographer who specializes in wedding photography. She is creative, motivated and attentive allowing her to capture excellent shots. I have referred Lydia to multiple friends and they have only had good things to say about her. We’ve also used her ourselves and her headshots have lasted at least 2+ years so far! I highly recommend Lydia for any of your photography needs.

Lydia is such a super-star that when I found myself in the position of needing to hand over a massively huge project to someone on my team, Lydia was absolutely my first choice. She took the project and ran with it, creating a Photography Education Fair that took up a block of Times Square in New York City. Lydia is creative, resourceful, a natural leader, well-spoken, thoughtful and one of the most fun people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. And, unsurprisingly, everyone I introduce her to is completely enchanted by her. Really, I can't write enough about how amazing she is. I have absolutely no hesitation in giving her my highest recommendation.
