    Fabulous Photos, Flexible and fun!

    We loved working with Jozef and you will too! Both my husband and I believe we are un-photogenic so picking the right photographer who we felt comfortable could get pictures of our big day was important to us both. Jozef photographed my brothers wedding years ago so I thought I would give him a call and when we met with him before our wedding we had so much fun he had us laughing as we shared our story and planned our big day. Our engagement shoot was on a nice Sunday day (we rescheduled a couple times to get a sunny day!) and the wedding day was in the rain -- Jozef was flexible and adapted beautifully despite the weather -- there are hundreds of amazing photos from both of our shoots. Thanks Jozef!

    Fabulous photography!

    Big “thank you” to Jozef for his amazing photography skills! Jozef photographed our wedding this past April 2018, and he did a fabulous job! He is super personable, and he was so easy to deal with throughout the whole process, making it a very positive experience. He’s funny as well, so rest assured that there will be a lot of genuine smiles in your photos. I can’t say enough good things about him and his work. Jozef, thank you so much!

    What an amazing, talented man - wow!! Jozef is a true professional and artist. He is hilarious, but also ready to get down to business when it is needed. It was insanely hot, and my husband was about ready to give up, but Jozef was able to motivate us to get amazing shots that will last us a lifetime. I cannot thank him enough - our children's children will see these photos! He makes everyone feel at ease and comfortable. He does not just take a photo, he makes art - what a special person. We would absolutely recommend Jozef to everyone!! He is a rockstar at what he does.

    What can I say Delaine and Adam, Wow so blessed to photograph people like you and your friends and families :). I am a photographer who loves to do what you just described so perfectly in your words. Create and capture stories which will last for generations and will be shared with love and happiness for years to come. I am so happy for you that despite hot hot Kelowna weekend and fires smokes around you lived your wedding celebration and shared your love and energy together. It is always a great feeling to see brides and grooms happy looking back at their images from couple weeks back. I am so excited for you and I am looking forward to design a wedding album for you which will give this story a tangible printed dimension which will then age together with you and with children of your children :) THANK YOU for allowing me to be part of your day. Talk to you soon. Cheers, Jozef

    How can I possibly put in to words how wonderful Jozef was... AMAZING! Not only is he a true artist, his passion for photography is like none other. He will do anything for the perfect shot, he will jump bounds to do so. Jozef was the first vendor I booked for our wedding & I thank my lucky stars that I did so. He understood what we were looking for & I know he captured it in photos. My trust in his craft & talent is 100%. Professional yet personable. He was patient yet so organized with the right amount of humour. We cannot wait to see our photos & know they will be beautiful.
    Jozef, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Thank you for capturing our day through a story of photographs. We not only had a blast, we truly enjoyed your company. You deserve all the credit in the world. We are so grateful & cannot wait to work with you again!

    Everything about working with Jozef was fabulous! He is such an amazing photographer with a great personality. He's so creative and really cares about his work and his clients. We had a lot of fun working with him and the photos turned out really nice. Thank you so much Jozef!

    Hi Nasim, Thank your kind words. It is my pleasure to photograph people like you and Vince. Wish you all the best in your new place and looking forward to see you again in the future. Cheers, Jozef

    Jozef was a real pleasure to work with. He has a real passion for his work and shares it through his conversations and his finished product. We were blown away with his shots, they were true art. He treated us so well and was very easy to work with on our various shoots. He made them very enjoyable and made us feel very comfortable. Jozef's creativity and ability to think outside the box gave us our most memorable shots during out pre wedding and wedding events. Jozef gets 5 Stars from us!

    Povazan Photography's reply:

    Hi Sharan and Raman. Enjoying yourselves on your wedding day is the key to my story telling. And I know how difficult it had to be with 1000 guests watching you on that day, and I am so thrilled to hear kind words you said about me and my work. I love to create unforgettable stories and I was honoured to capture your story for you. You are so easy going and genuine couple it is just fun and joy to work with you. Had a blast at both pre wedding life style portraits and also at your wedding day. Your story caught so much attention on my website that it looks like creativity is one of my sought after skills in wedding photography. Thank you for your testimonial and I wish you a very enjoyable life journey and looking forward to see you again in future. Jozef

    Jozef was amazing! We were nervous about being in front of a camera and he made it easy and enjoyable! He was flexible, quick to reply and fun. He was very professional but didn't make you feel like you were at a stuffy photo shoot. Jozef encourages you to be yourself and has fun with you. He took gorgeous photos on our wedding day and some beautiful candid shots that capture real, honest moments that are worth every penny. I would hire him again and again!

    Povazan Photography's reply:

    Hi Holly and Bryce. Where to start? Thank you, thank you for having great time at your wedding day, and for letting me to capture it. I remember when we met for you pre-wedding life style session / which some call engagement sessions :) / and you told me how shy you might feel being photographed. I remember talking to you in your home for at least 20 minutes before I actually opened my bag and asked Bryce if he would not mind if I made a portrait of him on your balcony... The time flies but some moments stay forever. At that point I knew you were great couple to photograph since you were genuine, maybe a shy a bit at beginning but real in your behaving and expressions. I love to show in peoples stories who they are and it is only possible if you live a moment, even if it might be a shy one :) which was not the case at all later on :). I have had great time with you and your friends and families at your Brock house wedding and I am so glad you had a great time too despite my cameras :). I wish you all the best in your new journey, your dad said at speeches you love to travel a lot, so Bon Voyage and hopefully our paths cross again in the future. Cheers, Jozef.

    Jozef was an excellent wedding photographer. We have worked with others and he really did stand out. Jozef was very professional and his skill not only with the camera but also with differing personalities was clear from the begining.

    We loved his photographing style. The big color high contrasting photos were just what we wanted. He was able to get the shots we hoped for.

    We loved his style with people. Instructing everyone where to go without ordering, patient and friendly; he was always professional.

    There is a reason why Jozef is constanstly rated the best in BC and he proved it again with us. Your photos last a lifetime, be sure to hire Jozef.

    Povazan Photography's reply:

    Thank you E+M for sharing your feelings about me and my work. Your UBC wedding was a joy to photograph, your night candle lit passage your mom and dad decorated still rings in my mind when I see night sky above me. Your wild party time and guests having great time and the two of you living the day was my honour to capture it for you. I wish you a great happy journey in your life together and let's create a cool album story for you from it once I am back from my destination wedding. Cheers. Jozef

    Jozef was an absolute pleasure to work with! He made us feel so comfortable, and what I loved the most was that he encouraged us to just be ourselves and not worry about our photos, just to enjoy the moment. And as a result, we had such amazing candid shots! I have to say I actually completely forgot Jozef was around to take photos. He made himself blend in and was never in our faces taking photos (aside from our family photos ect) He allowed us to enjoy the moment and not get distracted with posing. He captured the perfect moments for us in the most beautiful and artistic way. I would absolutely recommend Jozef. His style is one of a kind, and his photos clearly demonstrate that.

    Povazan Photography's reply:

    Hi Deepa and Shaun, what can I say, one of the wildest parties of the season when you guys rocked Rosewood Hotel Georgia like I have never seen before :). It is all about enjoying yourselves and I am so happy your wedding album story shows exactly that. It was my pleasure to photograph your wedding celebration and I am looking forward to see you again in New Year at your family reunion portraits. Marry Christmas, have a great winter and talk to you soon. Cheers. Jozef

    Jozef Povazan was the perfect photographer for our wedding. He is an extremely talented individual and has an immense knowledge of his craft. He is able to achieve amazing results from photos, even in imperfect conditions. He views your wedding as a story and captures organic moments as they unfold that depict the true joy present at your event. He also possesses an incredible work ethic. At our wedding, he was constantly on the move and was always looking for the perfect position to take the next set of pictures from. He was very flexible and willingly captured any requested shots. His personable nature made people relax for the more formal photos and multiple guests remarked positively on his presence. He even managed to get reluctant toddlers to sit still and smile for family photos! Yet, he is equally adept at stealthily taking shots so that you almost forget that he is there. Despite his extremely imposing schedule following our wedding, involving a significant amount of travel, he was able to have our photos ready on time and personally met with us to deliver the high-resolution photos. If you are looking for a photographer who has mastered his art and delivers an impressive product in a professional and charming manner then Jozef is the photographer for you.

    Povazan Photography's reply:

    Peter and Janis, Thank you for being yourselves and enjoying your celebration like I was not even there. Your story which I was honoured to photograph for you reflects who you are and that its how it should be. Raw emotions, loud partying time and intimate sacred moments when just the two of you were enjoying the silence of the majestic nature around you in the middle of the night. Priceless. You had an amazing support in your family and friends and the way you enjoyed your day was a joy for me to watch. Your images reflect how I witnessed your story to unfold and it was nothing short of amazing. Congratulations one more time, enjoy your new life adventures together and hopefully our paths crosses again in the future without the cameras somewhere high at the top of BC Mountain ridges you and also our family like so much to explore :). Cheers, Jozef.
