The value for photo and video combined was great for what we wanted to capture on our wedding day. Leading up to the big day, we had prep calls with our main photographer, Sarah Dodge, and videographer, Brian Perez. It was helpful to share what we like and don't like and talk through specific elements we wanted highlighted. Sarah is so personable and easy to work. We didn't want forced poses, so Sarah made a point to catch special moments throughout the night and got beautiful shots. We really appreciate how down-to-earth and upbeat she was. Brian was very easy-going and pleasant to work with as well. He and the editing team did a great job with our video, making sure we could look back on all the great memories for years to come. One thing we'd appreciate is if Timeless could scale back their initial questionnaire. It was very thorough but to the point of being redundant because questions became repetitive. We noticed the answers weren't leveraged as well as they could have been. For example, the secondary photographer didn't read about our preferences ahead of time--she was asked to capture the groomsmen getting ready, and basically asked my husband what to take pictures of instead of referring to the notes we already submitted and taking ownership of her role. Overall, it was a great experience working with Timeless and we would recommend them for couples interested in photo and video options.

"We loved Stephanie from the start! Her personal touch is what drew us to her from her initial phone consultation. She felt like a close friend before we even did our engagement shoot. She made us feel comfortable and relaxed which made the pictures come out perfect. During the wedding, she didn’t miss a beat, picked out perfect locations, and stuck to the timeline. We can’t thank her enough!"

My photos are emotion-centered and in the moment. I shoot a combination of 35mm film, polaroids, and digital photography. My goal is to notice the right moments and turn them into timeless, artistic, photos made with love - not photos that look like everyone else's.

WE LOOVE OUR WEDDING PHOTOS, THANK YOU JESSLYN!!! Not to brag but… we have the best wedding photos ever. And I’m sure you will feel the same way about your wedding pictures if Jesslyn is taking them. We hired Jesslyn for our Save The Date photos and loved them so much we had to have her for our wedding. Our wedding photos are breath taking. She gave the perfect amount of suggestions on pose and background ideas. I usually loathe photoshoots, but our Save The Date and wedding photoshoots were so much fun! Looking back, running off to take photos was the most relaxing and carefree time during the wedding for both my husband and me. Jesslyn has a very professional and calming presence to her which is always a plus during a big wedding. And most importantly, she was really able to capture our love and who we are as a couple. Jesslyn has an amazing eye for detail. We got our photos back promptly. If you want a professional, fun, calming, confidence boosting photographer who takes the most beautiful wedding photos, 10/10 would recommend

When looking for a photographer for my wedding, I wanted someone who would take hold of the vibe I was trying to create and run with it. Stephanie went above and beyond! My wedding was super laid back and casual- I could have cared less about the details! Rather than her photographing my earrings or old navy sandals- I just wanted her to capture my absolute adoration for my now husband. And I just couldn't have asked for anything more from Steph. I don't even have our photos back yet and I'm writing this review!! Her style is truly whatever you need her style to be- she's flexible and easy going and I can't wait for her to photograph my future family :)

Hi, I'm David, a Virginia-based photographer. Unlike many photographers, my introduction to the art of photo taking initially started off purely by accident. I believe everything happens for a reason and I am very thankful to be in the position I am in today.

I loved working with David he was very attentive to details and make sure he covered all of my wish list shots. He traveled from Richmond to Virginia Beach to shoot my wedding and all of my guests gave him much praise.

We came across Alaaeldin while searching online through various wedding websites, aiming to find a photographer with positive reviews, reasonable pricing, and an impressive wedding portfolio. After interviewing several photographers, we had the pleasure of connecting with Alaaeldin, who impressed us right from the start with his profound knowledge of photography and the entire wedding process. Along with his team he provided us with valuable guidance and materials from the planning stage up until the wedding day. This was incredibly helpful especially for a new bride-to-be like myself whether or not we had a wedding planner. One thing that stood out was his pro/con list regarding whether or not to do a first look. This list played a significant role in helping my husband and me make our decision. From the moment we booked Alaaeldin and his team, they were highly responsive to any questions or concerns I had. Their dedication was remarkable even during weeks of no communication, Alaaeldin would send a quick note to check in on how I was doing and if I needed any assistance. He even sent a thoughtful text the day before the wedding reassuring me that he was there for me if I needed anything at all. Initially, I was apprehensive about posing correctly and being conscious of having a double chin in the photos – silly, I know! However, he made us feel so at ease that we ended up going with the flow and posing naturally in the moment. They created a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, making the entire experience fun and memorable. We genuinely felt like we were spending time with lifelong friends. For future couples considering Alaaeldin's services, we have some valuable advice to offer: 1. Don't miss the engagement session; it's a must! and 2. definitely consider getting the photobooth! Our guests had an incredible time, and it added an exciting and lively element to the celebration.

Being a mother, wife, and believer in Jesus has made me see the beauty of tears, smiles of joy, and bonds of union between two people ready for their new journey. A wedding is a celebratory day that everybody needs to remember as if it were yesterday, and that’s the reason why I love to capture real moments and transform them into memories. I will trace a timeline with the photos of your big day, and it will be like returning to the most beautiful day of your life. Because the things you live, I living them through my eyes.

Nia is absolutely amazing and wonderful to work with! She took engagement photos of my fiancé and I and the photos came out amazing! Nia made the whole process easy, fun and comfortable for us. 10/10 would recommend Nia and will defiantly be using her again in the future!

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3
