“Matt through Enchanted Celebrations really exceeded our expectations. He was a blast to have around, he hyped us up, picked the perfect ways to capture our special day, and overall kept us on track throughout the day. We were so happy with working with him, and everyone at the event has commented on how great the photographer was throughout the event. After getting our photos FOUR DAYS after the wedding, we could not be more pleased! The turnaround on the edited photos was unreal, and the fully edited ones that we received exactly matched our desired look (dark and moody). We loved the way he captured us, our energy and the way that we interacted with each other throughout the day. He really caught "us" in the pictures and we'll cherish these photos forever. Big thanks to Matt and Enchanted Celebration!”

“The Wedding Bug in general has always answered my questions and concerns promptly and thoroughly. They worked with me every step of the way and made the process of booking and working with a photographer and videographer easy. They really listen to what you want and do an excellent job at pairing you with people who are happy to work with your vision and expand on it. Robert, our photographer, was on point. His years of experience really shines through the photos. Great candid shots, which is difficult to achieve. I would recommend working with him and would work with him again. Very easy to talk to and clear with directions. Peter was a great videographer, making sure to capture the various elements of the wedding, I would recommend and work with him again as well. He also had great vision and gave easy to follow instructions. Robert and Peter worked great together and they seemed to blend as a team. I highly recommend the Wedding Bug.

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

“My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.”

Your wedding shouldn’t feel like one long photo shoot. It should feel like you. I’m Erick, most people call me Ricke and I photograph weddings throughout Washington, DC, Maryland, New York, and destinations worldwide. My work blends honest, candid storytelling with elevated editorial portraiture, creating photographs that feel cinematic, true to color, and full of life. Most of my couples tell me they feel awkward in front of the camera. That’s completely normal. I offer just enough direction to help you look and feel confident, then step back so the real moments can unfold naturally. You’ll never be expected to perform or pretend, just be fully present with the people you love.

“Erick photographed our destination wedding in Cabo, and WOW! From the vibrant beach shots to the candid moments with our loved ones, every photo was a work of art. What sets Erick apart is his ability to blend into the background while still catching every important moment. His passion for storytelling shines through in his work. We felt completely comfortable the entire time, and he was patient with our large family and energetic bridal party. The final gallery exceeded all our expectations—these are photos we’ll treasure for a lifetime. If you’re looking for a photographer who is talented, professional, and genuinely cares about their clients, RickeHerbert Photography is the one!”

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
“Justin was an amazing photographer for our elopement (just the 2 of us)! We zoom chatted with him before booking him, and we loved his vibe immediately and knew we would be comfortable in his presence to fully express all of the romantic, intimate, and silly parts of our relationship. He did a fantastic job with the details, including flagging 5 days in advance that our elopement date would be rained out, so that we were able to immediately reschedule for 2 days later. He expertly laid out the train of my dress, helped me fix my hair, etc. and also touched up the photos afterwards to fix little things. He did a great job guiding us with suggested poses while also capturing our spontaneous candid moments. It was a very fun and relaxing photography session, and the photos turned out amazing -- perfect lighting, composition, etc. 10/10 would recommend him to all couples!”

I am a photographer based out of Baltimore, MD. I specialize in weddings, engagements, and portraits of all kinds. I have been taking pictures all my life, but my real photography journey started when my lovely wife (girlfriend at the time) Emma surprised me with a camera on our first Christmas together. She knew that I'd been itching for one for a long time, so she worked behind the scenes, getting all of our friends to pitch in for it. The look on my face was well worth it . I have fallen in love with the process of capturing moments of love and connection. I feel so lucky to be present for so many important moments, from pregnancy announcements to surprise engagements, to annual family portraits to beautiful weddings.

“I was hoping to look pretty. I was wanting some beautiful shots. My mom has two good photos of her in her wedding dress and I was like if I could just have 1 or 2 timeless photos to show my kids one day, that would be enough. But I got the fairytale. Looking at my photos it is so unreal. What movie is this? What fairytale did I just walk out of? Anugraha was so willing, so ready. I showed him a few photos and told him my dream, and he gave me what I couldn’t have dreamed of. Eternally grateful.”

For me, photography is about preserving the authentic joy and genuine feelings that make your love story unique. I’m not just a photographer; I’m a storyteller, an artist, and a curator of memories. 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.

“We knee we wanted to hire Jasmine immediately after speaking with her! She has an extremely calming energy that we knew would be reassuring to have on our wedding day. Her entire team was phenomenal to work with. We received compliments from all of our bridal party on how easy the team was to work with. She provided simple poses that made everyone feel comfortable but she also made sure that anything specific we wanted photographed was covered. Receiving all of the short video clips right after the wedding was such a nice touch and had us very excited to get our gallery! The photos all turned out beautifully and we loved having the option of color or black and white. I wanted a focus less on posed photos and more on genuine interactions with our loved ones and all of that truly shines through in her work. We also had Jasmine at our welcome party and highly recommend having her cover that til as it allowed her to meet all of our VIPs prior to the big day. We can’t say enough good things about Jasmine! She is a must hire for your wedding day!”
