The quality of their work was simply perfect - the photos are timeless and truly magical. Carlton played a huge part in making our wedding day memorable.

We are in love with our photos and will cherish them for years to come. A big thank you again to CMJ Photography for all they did to make our day so special.

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!

When we got our video back I literally smiled the whole 40 minutes watching it. It was like living the happiest day of my life all over again. The photos are so soft and romantic but also real, nothing looked staged. My favorite part was how they caught the little laughs between us, the small things you don’t realize at the time. The reception photos are incredible too, the colors and lights make everything glow. My husband isn’t usually into photos but he LOVES these, which says everything. The angles they found were amazing, like who even thinks of these shots?? They made me feel so beautiful and confident all day. I have had so many people message me saying our wedding photos look like they came from a magazine. Honestly I think hiring them was the BEST decision of our whole wedding planning.

We had the pleasure of working with Nicole for our wedding in January 2024, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From our initial consultation, it was clear that she was not only professional but also genuinely passionate about capturing our special day. Throughout the entire process, Nicole was incredibly organized and attentive. She took the time to understand our vision and offered valuable suggestions that enhanced our overall experience. Nicole truly made us so comfortable in a position we felt so vulnerable in. On the wedding day, she arrived promptly and worked seamlessly with our other vendors. The photos are absolutely stunning! Nicole has a remarkable eye for detail and captured every moment beautifully. From candid shots to posed portraits, each image reflects the joy and emotion of the day. She took our vision of a cozy winter wedding and turned the photos into our dream. Nicole was also very innovative in coming up with a beautiful rain plan as we were expecting snow rather than rain on our special day. The editing was top-notch, and we received our photos in a very timely manner. Considering the exceptional quality of the work and the level of service provided, Nicole offers great value for money. We felt that every penny spent was worth it for the memories we now have to cherish forever. She truly had a package for every budget! Working with Nicole was a highlight of our wedding planning. Her expertise and friendly demeanor made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. Nicole was ultimately the ring leader of the day who kept the ball rolling.

I'm Ciana, a documentary-style wedding and elopement photographer based along the East Coast, serving adventurous and experience-driven couples all over the world. Using film and digital mediums, I've developed a knack for chasing stories - the kind that are told through landscapes, reinvented traditions, fleeting glances, and wholesome conversations.

I don’t even know where to begin. Ciana is not only so sweet, kind, and personable, but she is also incredibly talented and creative. Her assistant Ryan is equally as great and fun and they make the most perfect team! Together they make you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We have used them twice, yet it feels like we have known them forever. The first time was for our pregnancy announcement session. Ciana and Ryan literally braved the windy 35 degree weather with gusts up to 40mph with us to help us capture photos to announce this special time in our lives to friends & family. I was so worried the insane wind would ruin our photos, but Ciana reassured me that they would still turn out perfect despite the conditions and to trust her. I truly don’t know how she did it, because they turned out absolutely perfect and beautiful. She truly knows how to capture the raw and genuine moments between a couple. Her attention to detail and the depth she captures in her photos is incredible. And the second time we used her was for our gender reveal, where my husband and I found out the gender of our baby together with our close friends and family. Ciana and Ryan captured absolutely everything about the day that I truly dreamed of. These photos will be forever keepsakes and always hold a place in our hearts. It’s so special to know we will always have these to look back on and smile and reminisce over and to be able to share this incredibly joyful time with our son someday so he can see how we celebrated learning about his life. My husband and I could not recommend Ciana and Ryan enough. They are truly the best team and kindest people. They will not disappoint you at all and will only exceed your wildest expectations. We are already looking forward to our next shoot and to have them continue to be a part of our lives special milestones, big & small over the years the come. It just feels like saying thank you will never be enough, but thank you!!

Hi, I'm Lee. Dreamer, Romantic, Storyteller... Growing up I didn't get it, I can tell you there is more than one photo of me with a bored and anxious look on my face. I can still hear my dad, who has now passed, say "if you don't sit still we will be here all day". As an adult, I now get it. Not being able to talk with my dad everyday or ask for advice, I'm so thankful to have albums full of family photos to hold in my hands. Fast forward to today as a DC wedding photographer, I want this for you. Nothing gives me more pleasure than capturing wedding photos that you and your family will cherish for a lifetime.

Often, I'll look at my wedding photos, and it'll brighten my day to see the great photos Lee took. Lee captured our wedding in a photojournalistic style -- catching lots of great candid shots. Of course, he also took portraits and offered helpful suggestions when we weren't sure what we wanted. He's incredibly knowledgable as well as fun and easy to work with.

I'm an award-winning photographer with a passion for crafting lifelong memories from fleeting moments. My calling is to weave together each smile, laugh, and tear into a joyful narrative, walking alongside you to help make your special day extraordinary. I offer a flexible, hourly rate so that exceptional photography can be within the reach of any budget. Every couple receives full copyright ownership of every beautifully edited photo in a stunning digital album for unlimited lifetime downloading, sharing, and printing. And every booking six hours or longer comes with a free engagement session!

We absolutley love Brenden! He did our engagement and wedding photos. From the first meeting he was friendly, warm, and professional. I appreciated his style, specifically his use of color (warm and cool colors), while my wife appreciated his ability to capture emotions and special moments. We also appreciated his ability to direct guests with a calm, confident, and friendly approach. A few of our guests even commented that they appreciated his direction--confident but polite and respectful, whereas other wedding photographers were "too type A" for them. Brenden made everyone feel at ease, which shows in the photos and our video. Bonus points because he recognized half the songs on our playlist! Overall, when looking for a photographer we learned that personality is as important as competence. With Brenden, you get both! We absolutely would recommend all of our friends to use his services.

The greatest compliment I receive from couples again and again is that they feel so comfortable with me that taking photos wasn't stressful, in fact, it was fun! Your wedding day should be enjoyable and stress free; My goal is to make that happen as a team with you and all your other vendors, because you deserve nothing less than an awesome wedding day.

I can’t recommend Rachel enough! She made the entire process so easy, even when I literally had no idea what I was doing. By far the easiest of all my vendors to work with; it was clear from beginning to end that she cared about us and our experience above all else. All the pictures were seamless and her keeping track of the timeline was a god send! We had a crew that was a little bit like wrangling cats and she still managed to make sure everyone got where they needed to be. And the pictures are better than I could have even imagined. She made the most of the time and even gave me advice on navigating things with my hair and make up vendor to ensure everyone was ready on time and everything was as stress free as possible, which was so helpful because she has seen waaaaaaay more weddings than me! Her calm and fun energy was contagious throughout the day! We had several guests comment on how amazing her presence and professionalism was. If you’re on the fence reach out! I’m sure once you talk to her you will have no hesitation! I would hire her again in a heartbeat.

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

If you're looking for a wedding photographer that will go above and beyond, Sam is your man. He was so much more than a photographer. We cared most about the small, beautiful, candid moments people share with one another on a wedding day and Sam captured all of it. He has a magical way of capturing emotions and making everything seem like it is in motion. We had a small family wedding and Sam immersed himself into the day and our families. It was so wonderful. He did the work of three photographers and I'm still not sure how he accomplished it all! More than that, he was there for every little thing we needed. Extra bluetooth speaker? Sam was on it. Hep with boutonnieres? Sam was on it. The photos made us cry and captured the day perfectly. I am so grateful we were one of the few wedding Sam photographed in 2025.

Hey friends! My name is Mandi and I'm a Baltimore-born lover of traveling, kitty cats, and ice cream! I am the happiest girl in the world when I am by the water. Being outside enjoying the warm sun, feeling a cool breeze, and laughing with friends and family by the Chesapeake just make my heart sing! When I’m not busy working on beautiful weddings, I’m trying to motivate myself to go for a run or I’m curled up on the couch with my husband, my 3 cats & a true crime doc. You'll always find me decked out in bright colors, no matter what time of year! As a native Marylander, I love getting out and exploring more of my home state - and beyond!

Mandi was an absolute DREAM to work with! From the moment we first spoke, her enthusiastic, passionate, and caring approach put us at ease. On the day of the wedding (and during our engagement session), Mandi kept everything so fun & professional. She made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera as this was both our first time working with a photographer!! Even though it was her first time at our venue, the quality of her work shows. She is simply incredible, and her work is so picturesque! Mandi truly shot the most stunning photos that captured the most special moments of our big day! We are so lucky to have worked with Chesapeake Charm Photography and we can't wait to see the full gallery-- we know the images will be treasured memories for a lifetime! I can’t say enough good things. If you’re able, work with Mandi!!!

Heyoooo, I'm Lindsay, a laid-back, artsy, candid-style photographer. Through my mastery of candid photography, my shoots capture you and your partner doing things, interacting, and not posing; which creates more dynamic and interesting images. AND bonus, it makes the process a million times more enjoyable and less awkward - so much so that sometimes people forget they are having their photo taken. STYLE: candid. artsy. natural. capture emotion. ME: queer. female. tinkerer. gamer. pickleballer. wino. laughs a lot.

Ginger Fox Photography was truly the best choice for our wedding photos. From the moment we first spoke, their communication style was clear, friendly, and high energy - we could tell they were excited to capture our special day. And the quality of their work was incredible, with candid, emotional, and breathtaking shots that made us look and feel our absolute best. Lindsay brought such great energy everywhere she went, which put us at ease and kept any self-conscious feelings at bay. We are over the moon with the final photos - they are creative, emotional, and capture all the magic of our wedding day. We couldn't recommend Ginger Fox Photography more highly!

When I’m not photographing weddings, I am a rock climber, scuba diver, glass blower (#breablowsglass on instagram), ukulele, guitar, and guitarlele player, world traveler, and cat mom to Sherlock (sherlocknessmonster on instagram). During the winter, I teach a video class at the Sheffield Institute of the Recording Arts and I love having a positive impact on my students. Everything I love to do challenges me personally and makes me a stronger person. I feel the most alive when I feel connected to this beautiful planet and the people on it.

Brea and her team are absolute geniuses at what they do! Brea made us feel so comfortable during our most intimate photo shoots (engagement and first look), and was extremely efficient getting all of our family and friend photos together. The candids are the best part. Brea and her team have a way of capturing moments like no other wedding photographer I've ever seen. We are aboslultely in love with our wedding photos--and the best part--we received the full album less than a month after the wedding! Brea is extremely kind, professional, creative, and very good at what she does. We are so pleased to have had the chance to work with Brea!
