Fourth Photography, LLC 
Rating: 5.0 (11 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Boyds, MD

Great photography doesn't require you to perform. It requires you to be present. My job is to handle everything else so that when the moments happen, they're honest, and the images reflect exactly how the day felt. Your wedding day moves quickly. I stay calm so you don't have to — present enough to catch every quiet glance and joyful tear, discreet enough that you never feel watched.

We had a small and simple wedding but wanted some good pictures. William was very professional, and the pictures are amazing! They absolutely capture the day just as we remember it. The online gallery is very easy to use and William delivered us the pictures very quickly.

From the moment we met Anthony, we knew we were going to have the best experience possible for our wedding day. He has such an amazing, vibrant personality and brought incredible energy to every moment of the day. He instantly made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera, which made such a difference in both the experience and the final photos. Anthony truly has an eye for photography and knew exactly what shots to capture and where to capture them. He worked so naturally within our venue and hotel space, finding the perfect locations and lighting without us ever having to worry about a thing. Beyond being an incredible photographer, he also helped keep our timeline moving smoothly while still making sure my husband and I fully enjoyed every moment of our day. He was supportive, organized, calming, and genuinely so much fun to be around. He made sure to capture every shot I wanted and so many beautiful candid moments that I’ll treasure forever. Our videographer, Bogdan, was equally phenomenal. He worked seamlessly alongside Anthony the entire day, and together they truly felt like the perfect team. Bogdan was professional, calm, and incredibly attentive, always making sure every important moment was captured beautifully on video. He knew exactly what to do without ever making anything feel forced or overwhelming, and his calming presence made us feel completely at ease throughout the day. Timeless was absolutely incredible to work with from start to finish. They offer amazing packages with so many customizable add-ons, and their entire team is professional, flexible, responsive, and genuinely invested in making your wedding experience special. We recently received our final photos and videos, and I honestly cannot stop looking at them. I’m completely obsessed. Every photo and every video clip brings us right back to how perfect that day felt, and we are so grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully. I truly cannot recommend Timeless enough for your wedding day. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made.

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.

Welcome to Just a Present Visual Studio, where every moment is crafted into a lasting memory. I'm based in the DMV area, specializing in capturing life's most cherished moments through a unique lens. Follow my journey and let’s create something beautiful together.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was incredibly fortunate to have Xiao as the photographer for our wedding registration photos at the NGA. She is not only an exceptionally talented photographer but also an absolute pleasure to work with. I had participated in several professional photoshoots before, I can honestly say that it is rare to meet a photographer who takes the time to learn about our story, understand what we value, and discover our personal style in order to create a truly meaningful and tailored experience. Her photographs are truly works of art. The way she captures the interplay of light, architecture, portraiture, and emotion is extraordinary. Every photo feels thoughtfully composed, balancing elegance, intimacy, and the beauty of the surroundings. More importantly, these photos truly embrace our personalities and the love between us. Xiao is also remarkably patient, kind, and encouraging. Since my husband and I were a bit stiff and unsure of how to interact in front of the camera in the beginning (perhaps because we had just gotten married!), she guided us effortlessly throughout the session. Her direction felt almost cinematic—like a film director bringing a scene to life. Through her excellent communication skills and warm personality, she made every smile and moment of laughter feel natural and authentic. Not only did the photographs turn out beautifully, but she also helped create an unforgettable and enjoyable memory for us on one of the most important days of our lives. When we unexpectedly learned that the NGA west wing would be closed to the public due to a private event during our scheduled session, Xiao quickly coordinated with us and adapted our plans, ensuring that everything still ran smoothly despite the unexpected circumstances. We are so grateful for all of Xiao’s hard work, creativity, and dedication. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone still searching for THE photographer in the DMV area. If you’re looking for someone who can capture not only beautiful image but also genuine emotions and meaningful moments, Xiao is the one!! Recommend 1000%!

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.

From the moment we met Cesario, we knew he would be our photographer. He immediately felt like a friend vs. another vendor. He instilled so much confidence in us leading up to our wedding day. He was very clear and efficient with communication. He let us ask for what we wanted while also guiding us toward other fun creative ideas. On the day of our wedding, he and Paul were amazing to work with. Great vibes, controlled time well and captured the true essence of our wedding. Finally, the pictures were STUNNING. My wife and I haven't stopped looking at them. I would 100% recommend Cesario to anyone looking to capture their most treasured memories and hope that we get to work with him again in the future. Thank you!

We are professionals at everything that we do and stay connected with couples before and after the Big Day.

Precious Pics White Glove was a great choice for our wedding photography. I liked their communication style, they were responsive and kept us informed throughout the process. The quality of their work was just as I wanted, capturing all the special moments beautifully. They provided a detailed timeline to help keep us on schedule, which was really helpful. My only wish is that our wedding videos were a bit longer, as I think there was more footage they could have included. However, they explained this would affect the overall look, so I understand their decision. Overall, our experience with Precious Pics White Glove was very positive and I would recommend them to other couples.

Hiring Kelly was absolutely one of the best decisions that we made for our wedding and we can’t recommend her highly enough. She spent so much time getting to know us before the wedding, and our photos very clearly reflect her attention to capturing what was important to us. We really wanted to see the joy and breadth of emotions of the day and wanted photos that reflected our wedding as vibrant and loving, and that shines through in every photo!! Kelly is also so personable and brings such a wonderful energy to all parts of the process which made us feel so comfortable and so happy to have her with us! In addition to creating a photography schedule that was invaluable and that we shaped the rest of the schedule around, she made sure to note people’s accessibility needs and to work with us closely on comfort for everyone as we had a lot of access needs. She answered every question we had happily and was just such a wonderful part of our day!! She also did our engagement photos at Great Falls and they turned out just so gorgeous. I had a lot of anxiety about how I would feel about the photos as a plus size bride and Kelly listened to my concerns and made me so comfortable and I’m so so thrilled with the photos and feel gorgeous in all of them, which I'm very grateful for!

Lindsay and I go way back; 4th grade to be exact. I was the new girl in a new school - and so was she! We bonded over this shared experience and became friends. Fast forward to 2019. Lindsay and I had lost touch because we’d both moved around quite a bit, but we stayed in touch through social media. And how serendipitous that turned out to be! Both Lindsay and I ended up in Virginia, only a few miles from one another. She started her photography business, Lindsay King Photography, with her husband, Greg, in Arlington and it just so happened that my sister was looking for a wedding photographer who would travel outside the country. I messaged Lindsay, asking if it was something she’d be interested in. She enthusiastically accepted. My sister was absolutely thrilled with her wedding photos, so much so that when it was my turn to choose, I knew exactly who to pick. Lindsay and Greg were fantastic to work with. They came with my soon-to-be husband and me to the lighthouse where we held our intimate wedding ceremony. Later that evening, they took photos of our beach reception. The photos they took were amazing and they made it a day I will never forget. They truly made this experience so easy and enjoyable and I’ll treasure the memories through their photos forever.

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. I captured my first wedding in 2016 and I was instantly in love with being a wedding photographer!

We cannot say enough good things about Georgette! We had a January wedding with about 50 guests, and she was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Our portrait time was tight (our fault), and Georgette helped us game plan ahead of time so we could make the absolute most of it. She rolled effortlessly with last-minute changes to people and the order of photos, and somehow managed to squish in everyone we hoped to include without making it feel rushed or stressful. The photos themselves are stunning. She captured every bit of emotion — the big happy moments, the quiet sentimental ones, and even the teary-eyed exchanges. Looking through our gallery truly feels like reliving the day. Beyond her talent behind the camera, her wedding experience really showed. From knowing how to properly carry a giant dress and veil, to keeping things moving smoothly, she went above and beyond in so many small but meaningful ways. If you’re considering booking Georgette — do it. We are so grateful for her and will treasure these photos forever.

Hey, I'm Chris! Dog-lover, latte-lover, gym-lover, and cookie-lover I justify the cookies by going to the gym. One of my life goals is to have enough dogs (dachshunds and corgis) to create a sled team. I will use this sled team to pull myself around while shooting your wedding. I’m joking, unless you really want me to, in which maybe WE should get married.

My husband Will and I got married in October and we planned everything together. Hands down, the easiest and best decision we made (besides going through with the marriage ;-)) was picking Chris as our photographer. He was so easy to work with from the get go. We set up a brief meeting, shared our vision (we wanted a "photojournalist approach"), and mapped out a schedule of events. Anything that we did not think to ask, he made sure to bring up and help make our vision more complete. Chris was excellent at capturing all of the tiny moments of the night without being in anyone's way. The pictures that he captured were absolutely STUNNING--the perfect amount of sentimental moments captured in beautiful lighting and silly off the cuff moments that captured the essence of each and every guest. We would work again with Chris in a heartbeat and friends have already requested his contact information for their ceremony. As an added bonus, because we did not end up using Chris for all of the allotted time, he offered to do a separate photoshoot whenever we would like. It's those little attention to details and customer service which make Chris stand out from the rest. Overall, Chris was kind, professional, quick to edit and publish photos, and an amazing photographer. You would not do wrong by hiring him!

Hi, its Jessica, I am a couples and wedding photographer based in Virginia. My clients are so special that they find themselves a friend for a lifetime, not just another wedding vendor. I take time to know you! I love learning about your love story, the proposal, etc. I am hopeless romantic, so I will probably shed a tear at every wedding I attend or photograph.

Jessica is AMAZING, we hired her for our wedding and also did the engagement pictures with her. I am brazilian and since she is also I thought maybe my now husband would be a little uncomfortable taking the pictures but no way, not with Jessica, the way she makes everything seems so smooth and simple makes you think you are spending a good afternoon with a friend! And her work is definitely THE BEST! On my wedding day she managed to speak both languages with my family and my guests and took so much amazing pictures that now is hard to choose! Everyone loved her job and she sent the pictures so fast that I was really impressed! From now one my dates for events with pictures will depend on her agenda. I can’t wait for the next sessions of her capturing our love!
