Katie Harmis Photography

Mount Airy, MD
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves McLean, VA

Hi Everyone! I am so happy that you are here! I am a photographer in the DMV area but I am available for travel among states and worldwide! I am passionate about telling your love story, documenting the authentic and candid moments that unfold throughout the day.

We cannot say enough great things about Katie! We booked her for both engagement pictures as well as our wedding. We took our engagement photos at the beach when it was still pretty cold out. During our session she got into the water to take the perfect shot, and the pictures turned out amazing! She is down to earth, easy to work with, and very accommodating. We never felt like it was an awkward photoshoot. She made it feel like we were just hanging out, being ourselves, and having fun. We cannot stop looking at our engagement and wedding photos. Our families really enjoyed her too. We highly recommend working with her and have already recommended her to others.

  • Serves McLean, VA

Bring on all the joy, laughter, tears, letting go and holding close. I want to capture these connections, so that you can have photos to hold in your hand and remind you what it felt like the day you were married. You deserve to celebrate without feeling as if you are on a daylong photoshoot — I will help you to really live your wedding day. Let's live your life celebrations and let go of “supposed to do.” If you find yourself craving a wedding day experience that is more enjoying the day and less about all day posing, you are in the right spot.

Kelly and her assistant were FABULOUS! They were both so easy to work with, caught the best moments of the wedding we hosted for our daughter and her husband. We are blown away with the photos and can't recommend Kelly ore highly! She will make your day all the more special!

We're Jay and Larissa, partners, parents, and documentary wedding photographers based in Chicago and capturing weddings around the world. We've photographed love stories from Mexico to the Rocky Mountains and beyond. We've also been ranked among the world's best wedding photographers, but what matters most to us is what our couples think. Our goal is to blow your mind with photos that make your mother-in-law cry and your best friends say "holy shit!" If you want wedding photos that aren't just wedding photos, you're in the right place.

Holy sh**. Excuse my language, but It is needed to make sure that those of you reading this understand how sincerly amazing Jay and Larissa are. We have used them to photograph us personally as a couple and have used them for a wedding of family friends; and newborn pictures of my Niece, Harper. Each and every experience and photo shoot and email and text and phone call with them has been perfectly professional, fun, and reasonable. The prices are great, the people are great- and the photos are freakin perfect. Unique and fun and different- but also traditional for those seeking that. Jay and Larrisa are an amazing couple and they take seriously great photos. We will be using them for the next niece who is soon to arrive, and for engagement and wedding photos in the upcoming years. PLEASE give them a call today- they are the best!!!!!

Fairmont, WV
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,299
  • Serves McLean, VA

I consider my style to be on the photojournalistic side, documenting moments as they naturally happen but also helping to set the scene for the moments that matter most. But I'm not just here to click a camera; I'm your visual storyteller, weaving the narrative of your love into each frame. You can think of me as your co-pilot to navigating the whirlwind of your wedding day. Together, we’ll craft a seamless timeline, embrace the unexpected moments, and handle anything the day throws our way. I’ll capture every smile shared, heartfelt tear shed, and dance move busted along the way so you can focus on enjoying the magic of your special day!

Aireal was so great during our wedding! We planned everything a little last minute, and she was so helpful making sure that all of our photo dreams came true. My wife and I absolutely LOVE our wedding photos and we will cherish them forever.

  • Serves McLean, VA

Hi! I'm Caliyah! I'm your super energetic gal pal behind the camera! I am a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in the Charlotte, NC area. I specialize in capturing the love and raw emotion between two people who are totally and completely into each other.

The only word I could think to describe Caliyah is perfect. She listened to what we wanted, we had a vision, and we worked together to make it happen. Her photos are not the kind that seem overly edited, they genuinely capture the raw emotions of your wedding day. Which I appreciated in the moment but will definitely appreciate in the years to come looking back on our pictures. She gives a clear timeline for how long we should expect to get pictures back and she has been correct and timely every single time. She is personable, easy to talk to, and overall just a good person in general. She rocked and I cannot recommend her enough!

Nessa K

5.0

Baltimore, MD
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves McLean, VA

I drink an absurd amount of tea and I make videos occasionally. I adore art museums and dabble on the ukulele. My entire life, I’ve loved sharing my perspective; illustrating life as I saw it and taking photos of things I thought may be overlooked. And I even wrote a journal entry at the age of 7 stating I would someday be an artist. In a black and white composition notebook, I poorly scribbled the words: “I don’t want to be famous, but I want people to want my art.”

Nessa is an incredible photographer who is easy to work with and produces phenomenal photographs. She was happy to adapt her style to the vibe of our day (but still keep her trademark "Nessa-ness"). We wanted a photographer who wouldn't be imposing on the day and who would capture the story our wedding rather than just take a lot of clean cut portraits. That being said, the portraits we did take were also stunning, so if that's what you want, just let her know! She's great at both, just tends towards more journalistic. I plan on using Nessa again when we had kids or just need a fabulous photographer.
