Alexandria, VA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $7,500

HEY THERE! MY NAME IS KLAIRE, AND I'M A FINE ART WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER BASED RIGHT OUTSIDE OF WASHINGTON, D.C. Elegantly refined details and family heirlooms make my heart pitter patter on a wedding day. I take on a select number of weddings every year to treat every couple with the utmost care as if they're old friends - I always cry happy tears on wedding days! I am eternally grateful to work with couples and capture beautiful images on their wedding day. My highest priority is to strengthen marriages with imagery that will remind them of how their unique story began.

Awarded Best of Zola
We used Klaire for our wedding pictures, which included our engagement session too. Klaire truly brought so much joy and ease to both sessions, but especially our wedding day! We got our pictures back quickly and are still amazed at how she captured our day years later! Could not have asked for a better photographer!

Jennifer Fern Photography

Alexandria, VA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,300

As a wedding photographer by passion & an aerospace engineer by day, I bring a unique perspective to my photography. I am incredibly detail-oriented, hardworking, & I truly believe everyone deserves quality photos to look back on of special moments in their life. My goal is to deliver luxury, editorial images that capture the true essence of your love story. I approach each wedding with a fresh perspective, knowing that every couple is unique & deserves to have their story told in a way that is true to them. So count on me to take charge when needed & when I'm not - to keep on authentically & artfully documenting your day.

As a wedding planner, I've had the pleasure of working with a myriad of photographers, and Jenn certainly stands out. Jenn's professionalism and communication skills are top-notch, making the collaboration process seamless and stress-free. She is highly responsive, consistently keeping me in the loop, which is extremely important to the running of a smooth event. The wedding we worked on together required a high-degree of flexibility, and Jenn was not only capable of handling last-minute changes, but she did so with grace and a positive attitude. And all this before we've even discussed her work. Jenn's photos were beautiful, elevated, and did a great service to every design vendor who participated. She turned around sneak peeks quickly, and even provided the venue with some footage for them to use in their marketing. Highly recommend Jenn for any couple looking for film-quality photos delivered with positivity and professionalism.

  • Starts at $2,000

My name is Amanda, I'm a photographer and I absolutely love to connect with new people as well as learn their stories. I'm someone who would rather learn all about you, and get to know you on a deeper level. I'm originally from Cuba, I was born there, and by the age of 5, my parents and I moved to Mexico. I lived in Mexico for 7 years only to find out I was unhappy living there! In 2008, my mom, grandma, and I moved to Connecticut, and I began a whole new chapter in my life! I'm a firm believer that things happen for a reason, and everything will eventually fall into place with just a little bit of hope and optimism!

When you start wedding planning, it is so overwhelming to decide on vendors when there are so many available. But we are so happy we chose Amanda to be our wedding photographer! My husband and I had never had professional photos done, and when we had our engagement photo session, Amanda helped us become more comfortable and photographed us naturally, while also giving us suggestions for poses and actions so she could get some great shots. We saw our engagement photos and they were so beautiful, we were so excited to have her photograph our wedding! Throughout the process, Amanda was always fast to respond and answered any questions we had. She even guided us on our wedding timeline and was so helpful since she has photographed so many weddings. On the day of our wedding - she fit in with all our friends and family for the vibe of our wedding - fun, relaxed, and loving! We appreciated that she listened to everything we wanted for our wedding photos, but also made suggestions for things that she knew she could photograph amazingly! Now looking at our photographs, we are blown away by how beautiful they are and how she captured the day and us as a couple. Thank you so much to Amanda for capturing our best day ever!

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!

Congrats on your celebration of life! We would love to be on your BIG DAY and tell us more about your EXCITEMENT through our camera. If you like to see a photo of you with the perfect balance between candid and artistically directed pictures capturing the mood of the day, you are in the right direction. We truly understand each client is different and unique, we believe your SPECIAL day collection should be reflecting your personality as well. No matter the vision or style for your wedding day or an engagement , we are here to provide a deeply personal experience for our couple.

Shooting with Lucy and Janos was a really fun experience. Our pictures have a natural quality to them which is evidence of how at ease we were during the shoot. In some of our pictures, we're smiling and laughing, while others look like images pulled from an editorial spread. Lucy and Janos are skilled photographers and editors, but they also have knack for directing that can be hard to find. They have an artistic vision and are ready to bring it to life for their clients. I would highly recommend choosing Lucy and Janos for your big day!

Steve Broy Photography

Centreville, VA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $300

Growing up with a passion for skateboarding provided me with a creative view of the world around me. I've been taking pictures professionally for about 8 years and I'm inspired by the music I listen to and those that I love being creative with. I have also photographed many different subjects, scenes, and moments! There's a picture around every corner.

Steve photographed our wedding, which was pretty small by most standards. He arrived on time, prepared, and he was very easy to work with both before and during the event. His photographs turned out great, and we can definitely say he gave us a good value for what we paid. We would gladly recommend him to any of our friends for their photography work. Thanks again Steve

Til Death Media

5.0

Springfield, VA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,200

I am passionate about capturing each couples unique story and their one-of-a-kind love. We are a husband and wife team plus our best man! When Jeremiah and I got engaged and started planning our wedding, the search for a photographer & videographer was a grueling tasks. I kept saying, “If ONLY Jeremiah & En could capture our wedding,” but that was totally unfeasible be as one is the groom & the other the best man. Then the light bulb went off & Til Death Media was born!

I will forever recommend Till Death Media! Kira helped me out of a bind when my photographer backed out less than 2 weeks before my wedding. Even though TDM wasn't able to photograph my wedding on such short notice, Kira spent hours searching for and interviewing local photographers on our behalf, eventually finding someone who was both a perfect match and well within our budget. Kira helped us edit and finalize our itinerary, organize which photographs we wanted taken, and even helped us pinpoint exactly what kind of editing style we wanted done - all things that I should've had sorted out with my previous photographer, but I was unaware of due to poor communication. When she stepped in, I felt like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders and I don't think I could've been happier with our wedding or our photographer. :) I 100% recommend Kira and TDM!

Gaithersburg, MD
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000

I’m Vanessa, a Gaithersburg, MD-based couple + wedding photographer for the wildly in-love. My life was changed by love. Seriously, rocked, rumbled, wrecked, repeat. Okay, it might sound dramatic, but my relationship with my now-husband has truly changed my world and soul for the better. We were lil baby high school sweethearts turned long distance when my husband joined the Marine Corps, and our journey together means absolutely everything to me. I know yours does too, and getting to capture it is the hugest joy and honor.

Vanessa’s passion for everyone’s love story shines through from the moment you meet her. I’ve truly never met anyone that is as excited for someone else’s love and their love story. I believe this is what makes her so incredibly special and amazing at what she does. I wanted a warmer, boho vibe in our photos and we are absolutely obsessed with every moment, detail, and emotion captured during our special day. Vanessa’s professionalism and calming demeanor is also something that every wedding couple is lucky to have on their day. She used cues that make sense, wrangled our rowdy crowd with ease, and even had the littles ready for their red carpet debut in front of the camera. I can’t recommend Vanessa enough… I know I’ll be reaching out again for all of our special moments through life.

Rebecca Wilcher Photography

5.0

Alexandria, VA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,100

My name is Rebecca, but some call me Becks. I'll let you decide which one to call me! I am a lifestyle and wedding photographer based out of Alexandria, VA, but I am ALWAYS looking for an excuse to travel. I'm inspired by human connections, love and friendships. I live for adventure, goofiness and optimism. When I’m not working, I can be found working out with my husband, traveling or at a grocery store/farmers market. Dark chocolate, workout clothes, ice cream, sushi and vegetables are a few of my favorite things.

We cannot recommend Rebecca enough. Aside from the absolutely stunning photos she took, she was a wonderful, positive force of energy to have around. She was also very calming especially when things got hectic with our zoom connection and instructed us to take deep breaths so as not to look tense in the photos. We never had a photoshoot done before but we instantly felt comfortable being candid with her. She knew exactly how to guide us through various poses and also listened to all our requests ex. close ups of the bouquet, of our rings, etc. It was small things like carrying my bag from location to location, making sure I was comfortable in my heels, and telling us to dab our sweat (humid August day!) that really made working with her a true pleasure. She definitely exceeded our expectations and we will never stop recommending her. Thank you, Rebecca!

I'm super outdoorsy, I love my hubby and my puppies... I believe in real connection and I think we must really like each other, because I'll be in your face all day, on your wedding day! Are you ready for it?

Erika is such an amazing, talented artist- her pictures are truly works of art! She is very responsive prior to the big day, which made my life easier as a bride. She is very easy to get along with and having her document our day was a blast! She also had a quick turnaround with her final edits! She is the best!

MFields Photography

5.0

Hyattsville, MD
  • Editorial style

After my first year of college studying music, I decided to take the business route. I worked for several Fortune 500 businesses and even some start-ups. Photography initially started as a hobby but it slowly became a passion as I developed a growing desire to serve others instead of quarterly sales goals. Studying various genres of photography allowed me to discover wedding & portrait photography - and the rest is history! From Washington DC to your destination event, my specialties include weddings, engagement sessions, and portrait photography.

Prior to finding out about MFields Photography, I was very frustrated with the process of booking a wedding photographer. So much so that by chance I was venting to my dental hygienist about my lackluster experience of finding a wedding photographer to capture one of the most beautiful moments of my life. Luckily she understood my dilemma since she was a newlywed. She told me all about MFields Photography and how great he was to work with. After my appointment she showed me her wedding pictures and I was SOLD. I called Myron the next day and he been making my role as a bride easy ever since. Myron is a valuable resource to have on your wedding team. Not only is he a great photographer, but he is well respected in his field. He also connected us to other reputable wedding professionals that helped us bring the magic for our wedding day. We are beyond grateful.

*Please contact us directly at britt (at) beetwosweet (dot) com if you don't hear from us within 24 hours on Zola* Our style is rooted in creative wedding photojournalism, influenced by art and lighting design to tell compelling stories through imagery. We are committed to keeping it real because we want to document each wedding celebration as it really unfolded and to visually show how it felt to be there. We don’t stage moments or alter our surroundings, everything is real and shot with a keen eye for composition that reveals the essence of the atmosphere or portrays a mood, whether romantic, fun, quirky, or emotional.

Ethan's niche in photography stems from his background in film from Maryland Institute College Of Art and his abiding passion for the arts. He has the ability to capture moments as if they were stills from a film and he approaches his work with the utmost diligence and detail. Perhaps these traits pay homage to the training he received while serving in the United States Marine Corp, or perhaps they are innate. Nonetheless, His work aims to exhibit its own beautiful story.

Josh has an incredible talent for framing photos and capturing light; his photos are stunning. He is easy to work with and a wonderful, kind person as well. He is great with kids and patient when they need a little extra time or direction during the shoot. We’ve been having our family photos taken by Josh every fall since 2018, a tradition we look forward to each year.

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.

Justin was absolutely incredible!! He was able to impeccably capture the beauty and joy of the day. A lot of photographers we considered had beautiful photos, but the reason we went with Justin was because you could feel the joy come through the photos and it paid off! Justin sent us the high quality, well edited photos faster than I have ever heard any wedding photographer get pictures to the bride and groom and he made it very easy for us to share those pictures with family and friends. Not only did Justin deliver beautiful photos that captured the mood of the day, but he went above and beyond his photographer duties. When all of the bridal party was racing around with wet fingernails, Justin stepped in to help button the many buttons on my dress. When we were running late to get to the ceremony, Justin called the front desk at the venue to make sure our ride was waiting for us to get to the ceremony ASAP. I cannot recommend Justin enough!!!

Even a year and a half later I still look through our photos and find a new “favorite one” each time, they’re just that good! We also decided to add on their Videography service closer to our wedding and I’m so so glad we did that. There’s something really special about being able to really hear and see to remember the day.

I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

We absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVED our engagement photo session and photos from Justin McCallum. The whole experience with Justin was amazing. My fiancé and I felt so at ease, and we wish he could photograph us all the time. We knew we were going to have a good time and the photos were going to be great but the whole shoot really exceeded our expectations. One of the things that was important to us was to have our dog be a part of our engagement shoot. Justin was so accommodating and had no problem incorporating him into the session.   I was particularly worried about how people were going to react with how I look in our photoshoot. I'm a proud plus size girl, but my whole life it has been rare for me to take a photo without SOME sort of comment about my appearance from others. There was a good two years where I just did not take photos of myself which I really regret. When I got the photos back from Justin I just felt so beautiful and confident, really how every bride should always feel. I did not care what comments were coming my way because of how proud I was of the shoot. I'm crying writing this which is silly but I want everyone to know how beautiful I felt in my engagement photos! We absolutely recommend Justin to everyone. If you are not someone who is used to the camera or uncomfortable in front of the camera, definitely book with Justin, he will make everything easy and you will feel beautiful!

My name is Holly and I capture timeless memories in one of the most hectic days of your life. I fell in love with photography in school but really took an interest after my son was born. Wanting to make sure I documented every little thing he did so I could remember years after was important to me. That turned into what is Holly Johnston Photography today. My passion is to document all of the moments through out your day so you can remember them years after, when you look back at your photos. I want you to be transported back to that day and remember all of the emotions and love.

I hired Emie about a year and half ago for some engagement photos, and I have since booked her for 2 other shoots not including our wedding. After our first round of shots, John and I (who are not camera people) felt immediately comfortable, and we left thinking that Emie and Mike were our new best friends. They are the type of people who you just WANT to have around! Outside of personality, her professionalism and attention to detail is UNMATCHED. She has always gone above and beyond our expectations of her, and always has a fun surprised tucked under her sleeve. She will take my inspiration and make it into my reality. We love her so much, that we could not, not have her at our wedding in Michigan. She is worth every penny. Aside from being our photographer, she has even given me great advice for wedding logistics. I could say 1,000 different great things about Emie, and truly mean it. If you haven't decided on a photographer yet...I would highly, highly consider giving Emie's a call.

We are traveling wedding photographer and videographer. For 2024, we have 70+ weddings booked in 21 different states. Our shooting style is photojournalistic, natural, CINEMATIC to traditional. Our editing and style depends. Very easygoing and flexible depending on the client's preference. Our team is dedicated in delivering memories.

So where do I start?! Lead and his team are the most professional, passionate, skilled, and accommodating photographer/videographer. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer on the most important day of our lives. They took so much time to incorporate everything we could want in our wedding photos and they even took the time to edit some multiple amazing videos with the footage. They were patient and they made us feel comfortable and supported during the night and we had a blast as well. On top of all that, he knew how to capture well our love story. His team is amazing and they provided a high quality, welcoming, amazing photography experience. I'd recommend their work for any event you'd like to capture precious moment's in! They were worth more than every cent we spent! Again, thank you so so much Ledd and team. We will treasure these photos forever.

HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

Awarded Best of Zola
Ashley is one of the most caring photographers I’ve ever had. She really went above and beyond even before I booked her. She sent out a timeline of how my session was going to go and even send me suggestions of what to wear. Then came the session, she made me really comfortable in my own skin and made me giggle so much with her awesome humor. I was really worried about how I would look, but when I saw the photos I was so happy I almost cried! She got all my best angles and captured my true personality in those photos!! If you want someone that goes above and beyond, takes care of your needs, and is FUN to work with and captures your best angles, SHE IS THE ONE!!!

A lifetime of memories can occur in a single day. After months, perhaps even years of planning, you deserve to remember your "best day yet" through vibrant and meaningful portraiture. That's what we want for you: A positive, "we totally nailed it," "I've gotta show everyone," photographic experience from start to finish!

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to even begin with this woman! Rachel and I have known each other for more than half of my life, so once we were engaged, there was zero question in my mind on who would photograph our big day. From our first conversation, Rachel knew our vision and executed it perfectly from our engagement session to our wedding day. My husband, like most men, don’t love to be in front of the camera. At our engagement photos, Rachel helped Matt feel so comfortable, and had him laughing/smiling the whole time! A few weeks later, we received the cutest mini photo book that had our favorite photos in it, such a sweet and thoughtful gift (and something i still look at almost daily!!) Fast forward to our wedding day, Rachel and her second photographer Haley, absolutely friggin KILLED IT! We had beautiful weather on our side, and man did we use that to our advantage!! Rachel and Haley both did such an amazing job capturing all the love and happiness everyone felt on our wedding day. They kept us on time, got every shot we asked for. We had two of the best in the industry, and our gorgeous photos show that! We are so grateful to have had both Rachel and Haley there with us on the big day. A million thank you’s would never be enough, but thank you!! Best decision we ever made was hiring Rachel Dibs Photography!

I’m Sarah, wedding + elopement photographer documenting true and heartfelt moments wherever your little heart desires. My husband, Ryan is my adventure-loving second photographer and ordained officiant (yep, he’ll marry you!). We are city-dwelling nature lovers who strongly believe in having a good time. We call Pennsylvania home but travel all over to photograph couples in love. When not behind the camera or working on the computer, we enjoy cocktails, coffee, cats, and hiking with our toddler, Brooklyn.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sarah is phenomenal. It’s taken me two weeks to write a review because I just didn’t feel ready. She captured my husband and my personality and love so well, it shows in every picture from the sneak peek she gave us. She is a total pro and is absolutely worth every penny. She and Ryan had lots of experience with weddings at our venue, so I felt very comfortable letting her run the show. They both did a fantastic job with putting us, our wedding parties, and our families at ease while also being very efficient with time. Sarah was thinking ahead and planning the whole time, she thought of things that never occurred to me. I cannot recommend or praise Sarah enough, she is absolutely phenomenal.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac went above and beyond! We had him for both our engagements photos and wedding. My husband and I are not big on taking photos and he made us feel so comfortable. Got all the shots we wanted and was a true fly on the wall. We got so many compliments! Highly recommend! You can trust him to capture the most important life events in the best light. Thank you Isaac! Cheers!

I'm Abby! and I’m hopelessly obsessed with love. There’s nothing like watching a couple look into each other’s eyes and realize they just got married. Being able to capture that moment- and then deliver it to the couple to keep forever- it’s truly the best. I’m here to capture so much more than just memories. I’m here to capture feeling. . The sweet glances that make your fingertips tingle. The look that makes your heart thump in your chest. The loopy butterflies in your stomach as you’re about to walk down the aisle. Those feelings. The photos I produce allow you to hold those feelings in your hand, and keep them safe for eternity.

Awarded Best of Zola
Abby swooped in and saved the day after we had to relocate our wedding across the country back to my hometown due to COVID. Professional, friendly, and everything else you could want in a wedding photographer. She was able to accommodate my family during family portraits and gave Garon and I really special, meaningful photos that we will cherish forever. Easy to work with and WORTH IT!!! Seriously would recommend to everyone I know (and I do!!).

I can not rave about Ashlee Emerson Photography or Ashlee Emerson the person enough! Ashlee exceeded all of my expectations when envisioning my wedding day photographer. She was warm and welcoming from our very first conversation! Our first in person meeting was at our engagement shoot and Ashlee immediately made us feel like we had been friends for years! She captured so many authentic, candid moments because of her ability to make us feel comfortable. Her husband, Matt, was also a pleasure to work with! Not only did Ashlee make sure I had everything set for our wedding day photos, she also made sure I, the bride, had everything I needed! She was full of tips and endless comfort! Our photos were magic, she is magic and I am now blessed to call her a friend! Thank you for capturing beautiful CORE memories for my family Ashlee. I can never thank you enough!
