Awarded Best of Zola
When my husband and I started planning our wedding we were completely overwhelmed with all the decisions that needed to be made. For photos, we new we wanted a really natural style and wedding alchemy seemed like they could be a perfect fit. From the very first email they were so helpful and guided us through the process and gave some great tips. The wedding day flew by but I'm so glad we chose them because they were an absolute pleasure to work with. The photos came out beautifully and I know we're going to love these for years to come.

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have truly nothing but appreciation and praise for Justin! He is not only so easy to work with, he has an infectious personality that makes you want to be his friend after your experience. His work is like an art to him and you can expect each photo to reflect that. 12/10 would recommend him to any family, friend, or stranger! You will not be disappointed.

When I am not behind the camera or editing photos, I enjoy short Uber rides to bottomless brunch on the weekends; right now mimosas and I kinda have a thing going on! I have a special relationship with bourbon and FIRMLY believe in putting food on the grill during late afternoons should be the norm. I am blessed to be married to the happiest person on earth (I am so serious), who just happens to double as my favorite person. She keeps me grounded and never fails to remind me how great she is.

Cesario and I worked together for a micro-wedding where the Bride and Groom had to reschedule due to COIVD-19. Although not as they expected, this was the best wedding I have EVER coordinated. Cesario arrived on time with a detailed shot list with new ideas as suggestions if there was additional time AND my timeline already printed. He has a great eye for the most amazing candid shots!! He made our couple feel really comfortable with various poses. He paid particular attention to detail regarding clothes for both men and women advising changes to ensure that each image was flattering especially as the evening went on. Finally, I was throughly impressed with the prompt delivery of images! I CANNOT wait to work with him again.

Hi! I'm Nina and I run Ivy & Quartz photography! I shot my first wedding in 2013, but my journey with photography began long before that. When I was about 10 years old, my dad gave me a camera and I quickly became obsessed. My intrigue continued to grow over the years and I went on to earn my BA in Studio Art , Photography, from the University of Virginia. After graduating I worked as a portrait photographer and decided to pursue and earn my MFA in Imaging Arts from the Rochester Institute of Technology.

Awarded Best of Zola
Nina was an absolutely incredible photographer to work with! She was there from our engagement itself. The night we were getting engaged, Nina and I had set a plan for when and where to meet, but my now wife decided that wasn't going to work, so Nina was able to quickly come across town and help us find a new location. We then did a formal engagement photo shoot, where we got to know each other better. Being photographed can be awkward but Nina made it feel comfortable! She also was very open to our ideas of locations/poses (also on the day of the wedding too)! Day of she was somehow everywhere at once and we didn't even notice - and the photos are INCREDIBLE. Truly everything we could have asked for in our wedding photos! cannot recommend her enough!

My name is Sarah James Middleton, and I am a Wedding and Boudoir Photographer located in the DMV area. I am obsessed with capturing love. I strive to find the little moments and capture them so you can hold onto them forever. Love and a little magic go a long way to making your day better than you imagined. I'm here to document the real, the raw, and the romantic. Let's make something magical together.

Awarded Best of Zola
We discovered Sarah James Photography through Zola last December as we were preparing for our not too distant wedding. We first met Sarah for our engagement/wedding announcement shots and ultimately booked her for our wedding as well. Sarah bleeds enthusiasm and her passion emanates through her work. Her energy is contagious and we really felt that she went the extra mile for our shots. For example, she hiked with us in order to capture engagement shots that were representative of our personal story, encompassing nature and hiking/camping which we both adore. Additionally, she made several trips to the wedding venue in advance to do preparatory work, including light assessments and coordination with staff regarding possible equipment restrictions. Although we knew from our first interaction that she was going to be perfect for our needs, we had no idea that her work would turn out to make the biggest milestone of our lives even more memorable than we imagined. Overall, we are extremely pleased and beyond happy with Sarah James Photography. She was professional in her conduct and demeanor leading up to as well as after the event. We received a product far greater than what we wanted and imagined, and she was able to deliver this with minimal guidance and short notice. Upon sharing our photos with friends and family, several of them asked for her information so that they could book her for their upcoming weddings as well! The response from the audience is a clear indication of the passion with which she performs her craft. Her rate was extremely competitive, her work was impeccable, and her personality was so exuberant that we we will continue to book her for future events. We look forward to utilizing her services again soon!

*Now booking for 2024!* Living my best life in suburban Maryland. I love art and being creative, so photography just seemed like the next step after being an actor for 15 years. Storytelling is a HUGE part of my life- whether it’s sitting around the dinner table recounting funny memories or looking at old photographs of my own family. Some of the best stories in the world were told without words. I am a D&D, gaming, and SQL nerd, I have a newfound love of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and I am a proud plant mom. Never been married before? I'm here to hold your hand.

Laura is energetic and fun but also completely professional. As someone who has worked with her as a customer and also as a partner on a few photo shoots, i have never regretted my decision to choose to work with her. She knows what looks good and how to position your body so that your look your absolute best. I would highly recommend working with her.

New Market, MD

Capturing the real unforgettable moment on your wedding day is a privilege I take very seriously. I will be there to support you through the entire wedding process and then fist pump along side you on the dance floor. My main goal is to provide you with an incredible experience. A quick background about me, I am a born and raised Maryland girl. I am married to the love of my life, we have two beautiful daughters and two sweet pups! When I'm not photographing I'm usually paddle boarding, cooking, or going to amusement parks with my family. I cannot wait to capture your most precious memories that will last a life time!

Jessi is absolutely incredible! She is extremely talented, easy to work with and great with communication. From the start, she was beyond easy to talk to. My husband and I felt comfortable right away and that was very important to us. Your photographer is with you for our entire wedding day capturing all the moments and you need someone amazing, for us, Jessi understood the assignment. From our engagement session to our wedding day, Jessi (and her second shooter Barb) were a dream come true! She was not afraid to stand outside in the freezing cold extreme winds on the side of a mountain to get the best shots and on our day she was pumping us and our wedding party up, keeping us laughing and having a great time. Our wedding photos turned out gorgeous and we will cherish them forever!! Don't wait to book Jessi, we will be using her again for our next big moment and wish we hired her for our rehearsal dinner too. She is that good! Thank me later...

I am part of a husband and wife team. My husband Pete is a laidback Minnesotan and I grew up in Germany. Between the two of us we speak multiple languages. Though we are based in the DC metro area we love to travel for destination weddings!

Awarded Best of Zola
Anji and Pete exceeded our expectations in every way! Having interviewed other wedding photographers for weeks, we immediately felt comfortable with them. We worked with them for our engagement photoshoot, followed by our week-long Indian wedding. We told them the general look we wanted for our engagement shoot and they were able to find a location close to us. For our wedding week, they both made sure that they understood our vision for each event and knew exactly what we wanted to capture. It was most important to us that our photos looked natural and not too staged/posed. And we're so glad that we came across them because that is exactly their style. During our wedding week, they both felt more like an extension to our family/bridal party. We are very happy with all of our photos: formal portraits as well as candid shots with family and friends. 10/10 would recommend them!

My husband and I worked with Lindsay and Greg for both our engagement photos and our wedding photos and cannot say enough good things! As people who are *not* models or familiar being photographed, we were nervous about how things would turn out and Lindsay and Greg made it incredibly easy and natural. They went out of their way to get to know us beforehand and put us at ease, which certainly came through in our engagement pictures! We knew we wanted wedding photos that felt candid and captured the day itself as opposed to a ton of posed portraits and they did a spectacular job helping bring our vision to life. All of our friends and family who have seen our photos have remarked that they are joyful and bring them back to our wedding day--exactly as we'd hoped!! In addition to being great at their job, they are really lovely people to work with and were a very calming presence on our chaotic wedding day! Highly recommend for any one looking for a photographer for their special day!

Your love story deserves to be told in a way that is uniquely yours. I take a personalized approach to each project, working closely with couples to understand their vision and preferences. The result is an individualized experience where every detail is curated to ensure your day is as special and distinctive as your love.

The elopement photo shoot we booked was great from start to finish. Jasmine was amazing, as I expected! This was not my first time working with her. Jasmine was very professional and had great ideas for photos. All communication was clear from the beginning. The day of the event Jasmine directed everyone which I greatly appreciated.

I've had a camera in my hand since I was at least ten years old. Photography has always been something I've been passionate about. I was the friend that captured all the memories in high school. Once I got older, and more interested in this becoming something real, I decided to start my business in 2018. I've had the pleasure of working with the most loving clients ever since.

Kay is absolutely incredible. She’s the sweetest person I’ve ever met and you can tell she just love to capture your memories in the most beautiful way she can. She’s not just some photographer telling you to say cheese and move it along, she’s going to be your friend by the end! We still communicate via social media and she’s just so relatable and kind. I can’t stress enough how huge her heart is and you can tell by the work she puts out. My wedding and engagement photos were stunning. She captured everything from candid to posed with absolute perfection. I got married almost 3 years ago and I still am obsessed with my wedding photos. You will not regret booking Kay. So why are you still reading reviews??? Just BOOK HER ALREADY!!

Are you tired of scrolling through wedding websites full of photos of shoes/calligraphy/earrings/etc. and wondering where the people are? Do you love moments more than things? If yes, you're in the right place. Forget about the table settings, instead embrace spontaneous joy and honest, natural moments.

Darcy was a pleasure to work with! She was so accommodating and informative throughout the process. I did a lot of our wedding planning at the last minute and I have never had professional photos done so I wasn't exactly sure what to expect but Darcy walked me through the wedding day and made sure that we had a clear plan. She was also very patient with all of my last minute changes to the schedule. I originally reached out to Darcy because I loved the style of her photos and I was incredibly pleased when I saw our photos. I would definitely reach out to her for future events/family photos!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a wonderful experience with Sharon Natoli as our wedding photographer. She is extremely talented and brought her extensive photojournalism experience, professionalism, and positive energy to capture our wedding day. She handled a rainy outdoor ceremony situation with ease, taking the weather as an opportunity for some unique and memorable shots. She also stuck with us after the reception as the sun came out to catch some incredible light soaked moments. Throughout the day, she was amazing with our guests, keeping things moving swiftly so folks didn't get too cold, and helping some of the more camera-shy (including me, the bride) feel at ease. I love that she took the time to meet with us beforehand and get to know us, learn more about our family and guests, understand our style preferences, as well as offer some expert advice on how the day could go. She also walked us through the final photos and gave us some behind the scenes technical insight which was a really nice way to revisit the day. It's clear she is passionate about photography and loves what she does. Her enthusiasm is contagious and we're so glad she was the one to photograph our day. We are absolutely thrilled with our photos and highly recommend Sharon Natoli to any DC/Maryland area couples!

Hi! I’m Steph, a wedding and lifestyle photographer, and I’m here for the couples who believe in rich colors and wild and care-free love. Based in the DMV, I travel often for weddings and stories in the mid-Atlantic and all over the world: I’ve photographed love from Delhi, India to Bloomington, Indiana, and everywhere in between.

Awarded Best of Zola
Taking pictures with Steph was one of the highlights of our wedding day. From our first chat with her, we felt so at ease. We were confident that she was a total professional that we could trust not only to capture all those “must have” shots but to capture the feeling of the day. We loved Steph’s style of warm and romantic images that carry not just the visuals but the emotions of the moment. Shooting with Steph was so much fun, my husband and I are not naturals in front of the camera but felt so confident and secure with Steph behind the lens. Between our wedding planner and Steph our timeline also ran exactly on schedule which helped give the day a relaxed feel, no small feat! When we received our highlights, the photos honestly took out breath away. They were so much more than we could have hoped for. Every detail of the day was there, all those special little corners and moments that you hope get captured forever. The couple portraits are some of my favorites, they really show how we felt on the day and will be so special to look back on as the years go by. Of course, Steph also made sure we looked darn good! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Steph for your wedding and engagement pictures. She delivers the best possible experience and product, in addition to being a super organized professional who will make sure it all goes to plan.

I am a Documentary Wedding Photographer who captures Candid and Natural moments! I like to blend right into your day and clients describe me as calm, cool and personable.

My goal is to put you at ease and make you feel comfortable throughout the whole process.

The day of he helped put both of us at ease, helping both my husband and I feel comfortable and get photos that felt like us. Truly made something that felt stressful into something fun and relaxing. Initially when I got the photos from all my friends, I was asking myself why we hired a professional photographer, but once I saw the pictures Konrad sent over, I did not ask myself that question again. I have never loved myself in so many pictures, he really captured the two of us and the entire day in a way that I couldn’t have imagined.

Verdandi is the culmination of a lifelong obsession with storytelling through beautiful imagery. My photography style is free-spirited yet elegant. I draw on mid-century editorial art to create vintage-inspired images that capture the soul but are still classic and elegant. Those in front of the lens are more than just subjects to me. Human beings are never skin deep, and their photos never should be either. I value all the positivity that comes from each person I have met along the way and I cannot wait to meet you either! With years of experience in the wedding industry, you can trust Verdandi to turn your love story into a work of art.

Trina is a fantastic story teller and you can tell that she loves the work she does. I had the pleasure of working alongside her for a wedding and enjoyed every minute of it. She is a true professional and one that I would be absolutely excited to work with again.

I'm a lifestyle photographer with a passion for capturing your keepsake moments! With work experience in event management, I understand the behind the scenes of weddings & I am fully equipped to deliver you fun AND professional service on your big day. I've captured weddings, engagements (hello crouching behind a tree to capture the proposal moment), and so much more. What I love about weddings is witnessing such happiness and love. I spend my time capturing the glances between couples, Grandma's smile, and your special details. If you want to see where attention to detail, professionalism, lightheartedness & sarcasm meet...let's chat!

Tori has taken our family's photos numerous times over the years, and I can't say enough about her talent. I'm always so impressed by how she captures unique candid moments that show off everyone's personalities. Even now knowing the extremely high quality of Tori's work, the final product consistently exceeds our expectations. I have referred Tori to multiple friends and family for their weddings, and it makes me wish that we had discovered her in time to photograph our own wedding. It seems like she has a plan for every situation, which puts everyone at ease and is reflected in her beautiful photos. I would enthusiastically recommend Tori for your wedding and any other photography needs - she always delivers!

Hi, I'm Lee. Dreamer, Romantic, Storyteller... Growing up I didn't get it, I can tell you there is more than one photo of me with a bored and anxious look on my face. I can still hear my dad, who has now passed, say "if you don't sit still we will be here all day". As an adult, I now get it. Not being able to talk with my dad everyday or ask for advice, I'm so thankful to have albums full of family photos to hold in my hands. Fast forward to today as a DC wedding photographer, I want this for you. Nothing gives me more pleasure than capturing wedding photos that you and your family will cherish for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
From start to finish, our experience with Lee was nothing short of amazing!!! When we first met Lee in 2019, he welcomed us into his studio with open arms and really took the time to get to know us as a couple. It quickly became apparent that Lee valued his relationship with us and that, for him, to truly capture the essence of our special day he wanted to understand our unique relationship. We shared a glass of delicious wine and talked for over an hour, reviewed some of his work, shared our vision of our wedding, and shared important details of our story together. My wife and I felt so comfortable with him, like we were already friends, and not just another client. I still remember the way I felt walking out of his studio that day. We knew right then and there that he was special and the right choice for us. Fast forward to 2020 and the world had suddenly and drastically changed. My wife and I were forced to postpone our wedding until the following year (November 2021). The experience was painful and frustrating, forcing us to make adjustments and sacrifices that were not part of our original plans. Throughout that entire time, Lee was there for us. He checked in on us, he invited us to hang out, he showed that he really cared. Lee went above and beyond for us for our engagement photos and traveled quite a long distance to ensure we got exactly what we wanted. When we had a small "backyard BBQ" wedding in October 2020 for our official marriage (we didn't want to wait another year), out of the goodness of his heart, Lee volunteered to come shoot our day and help capture those precious moments with close family and bridal party. And, at long last, on our big wedding day in November 2021, Lee delivered amazing photographs and an unforgettable experience beyond our highest expectations! He brings extensive experience to the table and we were so impressed with how deftly he moved and how efficiently he operated throughout our wedding day. Lee is kind, funny, reliable, gentle, generous, polite, professional, fair, and he takes amazing photographs! Lee, thank you for choosing us and making our lives better and our wedding day the best it possibly could have been.

It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

Sam has been a videographer at a wedding that I photographed before. It's so hard sometimes to communicate and mesh well with other vendors while working a wedding where there are so many moving parts and a timeline to stick to. Sam made that part easy! We got on the same page quickly and helped each other with shots the others wanted to get. Never got into each other's way and the entire day, start to finish it ran smoothly. I wish all videographers worked this well with fellow vendors. Makes the couples experience even better!

We did our engagement pictures with her first so I just knew going into the wedding that our photos would turn out beautifully… but I was amazed at the fact that they were better then I could have imagined. She took all of my requests into consideration and then was even able to offer suggestions for pictures/locations that ended up being some of my very favorites! She really does her research!

I can't say enough good things about Frank Formica and his assistant Glenn Miller. They were professional, thorough, caring, thoughtful, funny, and personable with us and all of our guests. It is clear that Frank has decades of experience in his field and takes pride in his work. The dialogue between the two of them was witty and entertaining, and one could tell they had a great working relationship and functioned seamlessly as a team. My husband and I are tickled pink about our photos and video, and they exceeded our expectations. We highly, happily, and unquestionably recommend Frank Formica and his team.

I have the coolest job in the world: I create emotional time capsules for my couples (and hopefully you too). That way, you get to be fully present on your wedding day and you get to relive that day over and over again with the same intensity, joy and love. My not-so-secret sauce is this: I get to know you. I find out what makes you and your lover tick, and then, I craft a visual story that's reflective of you. My utmost goal is to create joyful imagery for folks who want things documented exactly as they felt.

There simply are not enough good things to say about Maggie and her ability to capture our love! We wanted to shoot somewhere a bit untraditional, and needed someone with a detailed eye to capture the beauty of the venue while still allowing us to be the center of the show! Maggie communicated with us constantly and helped us both feel comfortable throughout the shoot. Her timeline for editing was reasonable and well worth every dollar. We feel so lucky to have been able to work with her to capture memories that will last us a lifetime.

The immense joy and pleasure of knowing that I - as everyone else - have a story to tell!

When I was looking for a photographer for my wedding, I didn't know what to expect. I thought I would still have to worry about poses, logistics and everything else on the day of my event. I found Tai 4 months prior to our wedding day and we've had two consultations during this time and she made me feel so secure that I could leave everything photo related in her hands! On the day of, she guided us through the best places and poses, made sure we got photos with everyone and helped us get our big family together for the most beautiful shots.

It wasn't until years later at art school in Kansas City that I realized how fulfilling and exciting wedding photography could be. It has been my focus ever since.

As a DJ I work with many different photographers, yet there are a only a few who stick out as being great at what they do, Asa is one of them! He's super attentive to the details and also pays attention to the big picture which is very helpful at an event as dynamic as a wedding. You know someone is experienced when they show up early, relaxed and with a smile on their face, all signs of a true professional. As for his photos, well they are simply awesome!

The best way to tell honest stories is through keen observation. How do I know? Because I spent 15 years as a journalist before becoming a wedding photographer. By paying attention to the ways you interact with your loved ones, I capture the in-between moments that will, one day, be significant. And using a trained eye and subtle approach, I do so unobtrusively.

If you’re looking for the perfect photographer-stop right here. I’m not even sure where to begin to tell you how amazing Natasha was! We got married on a very cool and rainy day in November and Natasha was such a comfort to have with us. Never once did we feel awkward posing. She captured truly the most beautiful candid photos. The uncle tearing up the dance floor, couples enjoying an intimate moment slow dancing, your brother secretly wiping away tears...you name it. Looking back at our photos, I feel like I was a part of every single moment of the wedding. And that....is the best thing I could ever ask for.

Growing up in rural Virginia my intro to photography came to me at 14 while breaking into abandoned houses with friends to take photos that can only be describe in retrospection as “experimental”. Fast forward a handful of years and I found myself going 'legit' and holding a BFA in photography, later finding yet more perspective and cutting my teeth shooting society events in NYC. Having now spent more years of my life taking photos than not, it’s safe to say that I’m all in.

Working with Cassidy was a fantastic experience. He listened to what we wanted, gave us ideas from his experience working at our venue and made us feel completely comfortable. Everyone told us when selecting a photographer to make sure you are comfortable with them since they are involved in some of the most intimate moments of your day - and while that was true - he managed to get so many great shots without intruding or in some cases even being noticed. He caught serious moments, funny private moments and of course all of the formal moments. We have recommended him to multiple friends of ours and will continue to do that moving forward. You cannot go wrong working with Cassidy!

Warm and Beautiful Photos by an Incredible Photographer UPDATE (6/2/21): Olga continues to be incredible and everything we could have ever dreamed of in a wedding photographer. She also took care of finding us a second photographer (Marcus), a videographer (Glenn), and a live stream assistant (Matt) - all of whom were wonderful, professional, kind, and talented. We were able to do first look/couple photos around the Library of Congress and Supreme Court with Olga, Marcus, and Glenn and all three made it a fun and easy-going experience that resulted in truly stunning photos. After the wedding (and the "engagement shoot") Olga sent us a "sneak peak" of the photos within just a few days! We are so grateful we found her and could not recommend her and her team enough!!! ORIGINAL (7/12/20): Olga is AMAZING. We hired her for our wedding several months after we got engaged and were not intending to do an engagement shoot (my fiance does not love pictures haha). But after COVID forced us to postpone our wedding by 11 months, we decided that an engagement-style photo shoot on our would-be wedding date would be a great way to make a sweet memory on a tough date. Olga was sweet, supportive, and flexible as we figured out details for a new date and added the extra photo session. She is down to earth and made both of us feel immediately at ease during the session. She was as excited as we were to get gorgeous photos at the Lincoln and then silly ones at GW (where we both graduated from). I have always believed that engagement/wedding photos should radiate warmth and happiness and Olga has blown us away with her ability to capture our love in photos in a way that can't help but make you smile.

I was born and raised in a quiet seaside town on the South Shore of Long Island. I grew up in a place where good, strong love grows with parents who have been together since they were 16 years old. They taught me that true love grows in the face of hardship and, as strong believers in their faith, that love is, indeed, patient and kind. And so as soon as I realized that wedding photography didn’t have to be posed and mechanical; that I could shoot weddings from a more organic and authentic lens; that I could document a story, not direct one, I was hooked!

The Lauren Louise Collective team has always been at the top of their game with professionalism and beautiful work. They are easy to work with, fun and it shows how much they truly love their job! Since meeting Lauren it has always been a team player attitude for anything and everything pertaining to couples and their day and it truly shows in the gorgeous imagery she captures.

Hi, I’m Yelitza (Je-lit-sa ... don't worry! I got you). I’m a photographer, wife, nurse, fur-mom of three, new avid hiker, and a pretty darn good baker; and I’m here (dramatic pause) to tell your story. I found photography my freshman year of high school (I needed some credits in a pinch and this was it), three days in class and I was in love. Fast forward a few year (hey! hey! not too many years... Watch it! lol) and I'm still just as in love as that third day.

My fiancé and I have worked with Yelitza twice and both experiences have been fantastic! She has made us both feel extremely comfortable both times and had great communication with us both times. During our first session she photographed us with our 6-month-old puppy who is very energetic she was very patient with him and was able to get great group shots of all of us. Our latest photography session was a rooftop city session and the photos came out absolutely amazing again! I would highly recommend Yelitza!

My passion for photography grew when my daughter, Lotus, was born in 2004 and I began documenting her childhood with an eye toward catching each irreplaceable moment. Soon, friends and then friends of friends asked me to photograph their children and families. Before long, I was documenting the lives and milestones of people all over the DMV area. I realized how happy I was connecting with people and capturing special moments, and so I launched Lotus Photography in 2012 - named for my first muse.

Georgette took our engagement portraits in DC at sunrise and they are absolutely stunning images! Georgette’s energy and excitement about her work is truly infectious, and she made our shoot so enjoyable! We laughed the whole time and had so much FUN. Georgette did an awesome job of helping us find natural poses that photographed really well, while also embracing any spontaneous moments during the shoot (we love a jumping shot!) She captured our personalities so well. The images are absolutely stunning and bring back warm memories of our amazing experience capturing our engagement photos. :)

As your wedding photographer, I take on more of a documentary approach and prefer to shoot with little interruption throughout your big day. Sure there will be times where posing is necessary, but for the most part, I know just how much planning and work and detail has gone into this celebration of the start of your marriage. I will be there for you to document the connection with you and your person with your genuine, honest emotions as the focus.

Sara was so amazing and exactly what we were looking for for our wedding! I would recommend her to anyone- she came to a new venue but worked it with ease and the pictures came out incredible. She gave the perfect amount of direction, and I love her style when it came to edits. I will be keeping her number for future photography sessions for sure!!

Christine is amazing! I was looking for a photographer for my wedding who’s work had more contrast than a lot of the light and airy photos I’ve seen lately and Christine definitely delivered! She’s super sweet and easy to work with (even doing our engagement pictures when she was super pregnant)! She did such a great job of scouting locations to take photos for our downtown San Diego wedding and we love that we have pictures in different spots around our venue. She also spent time talking through different dynamics with families for wedding pictures so we could get all the combos we needed without awkwardness of certain family members not getting along. I cannot recommend working with Christine enough! Hire her- you won’t regret it!!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I'm glad you're here. ​ I married my best friend and I am a girl mom to the two most inspirational girls in the world. Coffee is my fuel and when I’m not taking pictures, you can find me in my garden. Photography is my passion and art is my refuge - the combination of the two is where I find myself most at peace. I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in Havre de Grace, Maryland. I'm grateful that capturing beautiful and once-in-a-lifetime memories is how I get to spend many of my days.

There aren’t enough positive things my husband and I could say about Gabbi. We reached out to Gabbi less than 3 weeks before our wedding in Dec 2023 because our previous photographer fell through. Stressed and frantic, we found Gabbi and reached out hoping she would be available for us because we loved her style. From the start, we connected and she saw our vision. She kept open communication up until wedding day (and beyond). and honored every single shot request we had! She was so easy going, made the day stress free, and our families constantly complimented how amazing and sweet she was. We got over 60 sneak peaks THE NEXT MORNING and our jaws dropped at how beautiful, emotional, and crisp they came out. Needless to say we were extremely excited for the rest of the photos to come back and they did not disappoint. They came back on time, even with a last minute editing request I asked for. Shots I don’t even remember taking were captured so effortlessly. We cant wait to work with Gabbi again soon!!
