Testimonials

Marie-Louise Rouff, Artist

“Eli has made taking pictures a real pleasure. He took some fabulous shots of my studio and of me working. It is great to work with a photographer who at such a young age has professional maturity and great sensitivity. His pictures are strong and capture some of the intensity that goes into making paintings. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Eli, and highly recommend both his working methods and the quality of his photographs.”

Nicole Galland, Author

“I hate getting my picture taken, and I warned Eli of that when we began our shoot (I needed an author photo, and in case I haven’t mentioned it, I hate getting my photo taken.) Working with Eli was such a joy – he actually made it FUN, because he was having so much fun himself. He didn’t just want a good photo – he wanted me to have a good experience while we were doing it. He succeeded in both arenas. Most of my memories of the shoot – done outside on a freezing day in February, prime conditions for me to be grumpy – are of giggling, or enjoying watching Eli giggle. I’m looking forward to the next shoot – which is an extraordinary accomplishment on his part. And the photos are really terrific. I used one as my ID card at a conference I went to; another is on my website; and one is my Facebook profile – he captured the professional angle, but also the personal. I recommend Eli with boundless enthusiasm. He’s a delight to work with and a true craftsman.”

Kimberly Cartwright, Fitness Instructor

“I used Eli Dagostino to photograph me for my website in the fall of 2010. He captured wonderful photos that really show who I am. He is intuitive and sensitive. I feel like he “got me” as a person, and was able to create environments with light and backgrounds that complemented and described me in ways that words never could. Eli’s pictures are truly worth a thousand words.”

Lexi & Chris

I am so glad we chose Eli to photograph our wedding. He was wonderful to work with. I was immediately impressed with his professionalism which he maintained throughout the whole planning process and the actual wedding. Eli and his assistant Alexandra have an ease about them that enabled them to be everywhere without causing a single disruption. Most importantly, we love our wedding photos. Eli managed to capture our wedding in a way that is very honest yet still beautiful. We couldn’t have asked for more.
