“Bhanu and Eternal Vistas were amazing to work with! We booked them for our courthouse elopement and to do a couples shoot afterwards. They were so easy to work with and super upfront about pricing.

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.

“Sarah was amazing to work with! We first did our engagement photos with her and knew she was the right photographer for us. My husband is not super comfortable in front of the camera, but Sarah and Jack (her partner/second shooter) helped put him at ease for our photos! I love her photography style and editing, and I feel like her team truly captured the beauty and love we felt on our wedding day. Sarah was very easy to communicate and work with and I feel like she listened to my vision and knew the key shots I wanted for the day. She also was incredible with time management, ensuring we got all of the shots we needed so we didn't have to miss much of our cocktail hour or any of our reception! Her turnaround time was also super quick, as we had all of our photos back in about 6 weeks (we also got married in September, a high volume time for her!).

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.”

“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!

Welcome! I’m Jenna Coyle. I’m a photographer working and living in Baltimore. I have always been drawn to art, but portrait photography captured my heart. I find joy in providing my clients with wonderful memories they can cherish for a lifetime.

“From our first conversation with Jenna, she was straightforward about what to expect and kept us in the loop every step of the way. She tackled our family portraits like a pro, managing our large group with ease and getting everyone in the shots we wanted. Beyond just photography, Jenna went above and beyond when our groomsmen needed to run an errand—she even held our cake for us in her car without hesitation (shows how prompt she is!). She was also great working with us throughout her hours. When it came to the last hour, she let us know she was going to leave soon and we were able to grab a few “cake cutting photos” to make it seem she was actually there. Her eye for film, angles, and lighting is exceptional, and she captured the genuine moments of our day in ways we didn't even realize we needed. We felt totally supported throughout the entire process because she was always available to answer questions and talk through details. Jenna delivered exactly what she promised and more (we love the film photos so much), and we couldn't be happier with how our wedding photos turned out.”

“From our very first phone call, Rachel just got it. She was so down-to-earth and easy to talk to—it felt like chatting with a friend I’d known for years. She really listened to what was important to us, especially how much we wanted to capture the real, candid moments with our family and kids. That was a huge priority for us, and she completely nailed it. I felt seen and understood, which made the whole process so much more relaxed and fun. On the day of the wedding, Rachel was a total rockstar. She showed up with the best energy, kept everything moving smoothly, and somehow managed to be everywhere at once without ever feeling intrusive. Every single shot we hoped for—she got it. And the candids? Literal magic. The best surprise were the polaroids and the sneak peek book she created and shared during the reception – seeing the photos in real time made us so excited for the actual photos. We’ve looked through our gallery a hundred times and still find new favorite moments every time. One of the best decisions we made was adding on her content creator option—it was SO worth it & Jade captured the best moments of the night, set them to music and within a day we had a reel to share with our loved ones. Rachel and her team captured the very best moments that day all while allowing us to have fun and be ourselves. I am also impressed by how quickly everything was delivered – her communication is flawless, and I feel like I blinked, and I was looking at my photos. The turnaround time was so much faster than I expected, and the quality was beyond what I had hoped for. I am forever grateful that Rachel was a part of our wedding day!”

By the time we arrived, he already had a plan in place to make the most of our time together. We are thrilled with the results and couldn't recommend Dreisbach Photography more highly.”

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.

“The talent and care Sam had when working with us was incredible. This is how and who you want to take photos of one of the most important days of your life. He is seriously AMAZING. We eloped in Mount Vernon and Sam knew everything about the area, even down to restaurant reccs. The photos he took of us in The Walters Art Museum and Peabody Library are breathtaking. He knew all the best places to get the best shots (okay parking deck roof photos!!) and went above and beyond with us. He took the time to get to know WHO we are, and my husband and I can see ourselves and our love in our photos. Sam is magic. Cannot recommend him enough.”

I blend digital, film, and Super 8 to create images that feel timeless and full of emotion — a balance of editorial artistry and genuine storytelling. My passion for photography began with a Polaroid camera as a child, a love for art, fashion, and history. I’ve grown into a lifelong love of preserving memories that become heirlooms. Every wedding I photograph is personal to me — it’s about honoring your story, your people, and the fleeting, beautiful moments that deserve to be remembered forever.

“Morr Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Alyssa's communication was prompt, effective, and completely professional. Her vision and attention to detail were impeccable, and she captured all the special moments we were hoping for and so much more. As someone who doesn't always feel photogenic, Alyssa made me feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. She has now photographed our engagement, wedding, and we're even doing our maternity photos with her this week - her talent is truly timeless and the quality of her work is simply excellent. I cannot recommend Alyssa and Morr Photography enough to any couple planning their wedding. She went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect, even when our wedding planner dropped the ball on a couple of things. Her warm personality and incredible skill behind the lens make her an invaluable asset for any couple's special day.”

She doesn't excellent job capturing the light and airy look that I desired. She did an amazing job with my multicultural wedding and even stayed a little bit late so that she could capture the traditional celebration. I loved her work so much.

“On our wedding day, Jocelyn and her team was more than photographers but a calming presence, helping us stay relaxed while ensuring every special moment was captured beautifully. The mix of candid shots, artistic portraits, and intimate details perfectly told the story of our day. It was a surprise to receive a sneak peak the morning after our wedding. I highly recommended hiring Jocelyn for your wedding.”
