Sharp Impressions Photo

Frederick, MD
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,240

I've had a camera in my hand since I was at least ten years old. Photography has always been something I've been passionate about. I was the friend that captured all the memories in high school. Once I got older, and more interested in this becoming something real, I decided to start my business in 2018. I've had the pleasure of working with the most loving clients ever since.

Don’t look any farther this is the photographer you want! Kay is beyond professional, caring, kind, and thoughtful. She went above and beyond in every aspect and words cannot express how grateful I am for her. She helped with planning, logistics and anything that went “wrong” during the wedding she instantly put me at ease. The turn around time was so fast and ahead of schedule. Her work is beautiful and she captured our personality in every shot. She is a gem of a human and if you have the opportunity to work with her don’t pass it up!

Leigh Anne Brader Photography, LLC

Frederick, MD
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $6,800

Vintage film-inspired family, boudoir, & wedding photography for passionate, creative people. Located in Frederick, Maryland, available worldwide. Hi, I'm Leigh Anne! As a kid, I never imagined myself as a photographer. I always wanted to be a teacher, but I loved looking through my parents' shoeboxes full of prints and developed a passion for photography. Those vintage photographs inspired the editing style that I use today.

Leigh Anne captured our day exactly how we wanted to remember it; magical, beautiful and fun. Despite being camera-shy and perpetually self-conscious, she made posing feel natural and even made it FUN! She brings a fun and light-hearted energy to the room and made our experience with her a memorable one. Her work is gorgeous, her talent is unmatched and we can't wait to book her for our future photography needs! We will be forever recommending her to everyone we know.

Haley Cassera Collective

Frederick, MD
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $600

Hi, I’m Haley (most people call me Hayy), founder and Creative Director of Haley Cassera Collective. I believe the best photographs aren’t perfectly posed—they’re the ones that make you feel something years later. My approach is a blend of documentary storytelling and natural guidance, creating space for genuine moments while making you feel completely at ease in front of the camera. I’m there to preserve it genuinely and authentically. My goal is for you to be fully present while I document the moments you’ll never want to forget.

We knew Haley Cassera Collective was the right choice for us the moment we started talking with her. From day one, she brought an upbeat energy that made planning feel exciting rather than stressful. During our wedding, Haley had this amazing ability to capture genuine moments without interrupting the flow of our celebration—she seemed to understand exactly what we wanted and blended in seamlessly with our guests. She picked up on our style right away and delivered photos that felt authentically us. What really stood out was how supportive and fun she was throughout the entire day, making everyone around her feel comfortable and energized. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer to document our wedding.

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!). Can't recommend Sarah enough, we will continue to use her in the future for milestone photos!

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 came recommended from a friend who did their engagement and wedding photos with him. We were also fortunate to have done our proposal, engagement and wedding photos with Isaac! He is so professional and comfortable to be around. My husband and I dont usually like to take photos, because we are self conscious, but Isaac took care of us. I am so grateful we came across LoveKnot and will always highly recommend them for anyone's special occasion.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Villa Li Photography for our wedding photos made the day amazing! Wedding photos are something that we knew we only had one chance to get right, and thanks to Villa, we have a beautiful recap of our day. From the moment we engaged with Villa we knew we had the right sense of style and organization that would capture the moment. Villa has an incredible sense of style and ability to focus on the subject and the background for the perfect composition. She has an arsenal of equipment that can be used for any setting to help adjust the light and filters to make everyone look their best! During our festivities, we had multiple venues that we needed to capture and some of those spaces were in residential homes. Villa was able to adapt to each situation and executed the photos to perfection! We love looking at what she captured in the homes that was part of our day. Not only that, but Villa also adapted to outdoor settings and then back inside for the reception venue. We covered all angles with her! Throughout the day she was calming and worked the venues to get the best photos. One of the wonderful things was her ability to get the candid shots of our guests which helped us show what a great day everyone had! Villa has a great way to share the photos and edits after the festivities. She is prompt and communicative even after the excitement has subsided. We were overjoyed with the final outcome! Whether you are getting married or need any photography assistance, make sure you speak with Villa to discuss your requirements and how she can deliver them as perfectly as she did for us! Thank you, Villa!

Taylor Ann Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (12 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Frederick, MD

Hi! I’m Taylor Mihaljevic (she/her), a queer, film + digital wedding photographer based in PA and passport-ready. I capture honest, artful images that reflect your love exactly as it is—joyful, sacred, weird, and wonderful. From mountaintop vows to packed dance floors, I’m here to document it all with care, intuition, and intention. When we work together, you’ll walk away with a gallery that feels like you—not just how it looked, but how it felt to be there.

Awarded Best of Zola
I honestly don’t even know how to write a review that does Taylor justice—she is just that incredible. From the very beginning, her energy made us feel instantly comfortable, safe, and completely able to be ourselves. As a queer couple, finding a queer photographer who truly gets it was such a gift. We never had to explain ourselves or hold anything back—we felt fully seen the entire time. As two plus-sized brides, this meant even more. Not every photographer knows how to capture all body types in a way that feels natural and beautiful—but Taylor just does. We didn’t even need to have a big conversation about it—we just felt confident and in good hands. And somehow, even the most candid moments look incredible. It still blows our minds. Her photography is on another level, but what truly sets her apart is how much she invests in her clients. She was so much more than our photographer—she helped guide us through the entire planning process with thoughtful check-ins, timeline support, and so much care. She made what could have been overwhelming feel organized, collaborative, and even fun. She is also one of the most professional and on-top-of-it vendors we worked with (and we had some amazing vendors). We always felt taken care of. Her second photographer, Bec, was also incredible. The two of them worked so seamlessly together and were completely in tune with our needs. At one point during the day, I mentioned feeling frustrated about a detail I had envisioned, and they immediately stepped in with a “we’ve got you” attitude—and somehow made it happen right away. We felt so supported, seen, and prioritized throughout the entire day. It was also 1000% worth having a second photographer. We didn’t originally plan on it, but we are so glad we did. They captured everything—both of us, our guests, and so many meaningful in-between moments that we’ll cherish forever. We’ve now done four shoots with Taylor, and at this point we joke that we just keep booking her so we can hang out. Creating with her is always the best experience. Truly, hiring Taylor was the best money we spent on our wedding. We didn’t choose the cheapest option—we chose the best. Some things aren’t worth cutting corners on, and this is one of them. What you’re investing in with Taylor is so much more than your wedding day. It’s months of thoughtful planning, guidance, care, and the time she pours into understanding your vision and bringing it to life in a way that feels completely personal. That level of experience and intention is something you can’t fully understand until you go through it—but it is worth every single penny. We are so glad we trusted that and didn’t let price be the deciding factor. She is worth the splurge, worth the investment, and clearly knows her worth—for good reason. We cannot recommend her enough.

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.

Fourth Photography, LLC was a wonderful choice for our wedding photography. From the start, the photographer was incredibly helpful, friendly, and punctual in all of our communications. On the day of our engagement photos, it was very windy and cold, but the photographer remained professional throughout and made sure to get all the special moments, even going the extra mile to spot a great location we hadn't noticed and encouraging us to stay for some extra photos. The final photos were absolutely beautiful and captured all the joy and details of our special day. We're so grateful for their attentive service and the wonderful, high-quality work they provided.

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 truly don’t even know where to begin with how incredible Jasmine and her team were. From the very first conversation to the final goodbye on our wedding night, they were everything you could hope for in a photography team - calm, kind, organized, and unbelievably talented. On the wedding day, Jasmine had this effortless way of directing us that never felt stiff or staged. She somehow managed to make everything feel natural and fun, even during portraits (which we were nervous about going into). Her team blended into the background in the best way possible, capturing every candid moment without ever disrupting the flow of the day. Looking back at the photos, it genuinely feels like they bottled up the emotion of the entire wedding - the quiet in-between moments, the laughter, the happy tears, the energy on the dance floor. Every image feels alive and intentional, like a story we get to relive over and over again. They were also incredibly organized and on top of every detail, keeping things moving smoothly while somehow making it all feel completely stress-free for us. That balance of professionalism and warmth is rare, and they nailed it. We are beyond grateful we had Jasmine and her team with us. These aren’t just wedding photos—they’re memories we’ll have for the rest of our lives, captured better than we ever could have imagined.

Hi!!!! Thanks for stopping by! I’m Eliza — a Colorado-based wedding and elopement photographer with a background in art education and fine art. I photograph weddings the same way I approach life: with curiosity, heart, and a lot of feeling. I focus on real moments, emotion, and connection (no stiff poses here). I also create custom watercolor paintings inspired by wedding days because some stories want to be told beyond the camera. My goal? To capture your wild bliss — not just what your day looked like, but how it felt. What will you do with your one wild life?

Eliza was absolutely amazing for our family photoshoot. She kept everyone engaged the entire time, which truly shows in every photo. The candid shots she captured are some of the most beautiful moments we’ve ever had documented. Her attention to detail was incredible, and these are hands down some of the best family photos we’ve ever taken. We are so grateful for her talent and can’t wait to work with her again.

Choosing Rachel & her team was one of the best decisions we made wedding planning! We hired her for our engagement photos, wedding day photos, as well as Super8 film coverage. If you’re reading this review, I’m sure you’ve seen her portfolio and her work is obviously stunning. She brings an authentic feel to all of her photos and is amazing at capturing the unplanned/ non staged moments. That being said, her and her team are also amazing about helping couples pose for those staged portraits. My husband and I are not the most natural in front of the camera and she immediately made us feel at ease and directed us in a way that still felt natural & true to us. If you’re considering adding on the Super8 film coverage- do it! We wanted video coverage of our wedding but we felt that many of the videography examples we were seeing by other providers were too produced and inauthentic. When I watched a sample of a Super8 film her team had done in the past and teared up watching strangers say I do, I knew her Super8 was the right direction for us. Our video means so much to us. It feels timeless and captures all of the emotions throughout the day. We watch it each month anniversary of our wedding and it never fails to make me tear up. I lastly want to share a lover letter to her and her entire team. They are incredibly kind, funny, and make you feel at ease immediately. I never felt uncomfortable or self conscious with them. We found ourselves laughing all day. Not only are they all incredibly talented, but they work so well together and radiate chill positivity. Moral of this story- you need to hire Rachel & her team. Period.

I was a 2025 bride, and to be completely transparent, we originally planned to spend no more than 3,500 on a wedding photographer. After speaking with Candy, we decided to invest 2,000 more than our initial budget, and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Candy’s communication is truly exceptional—you can immediately tell she loves what she does. She is incredibly creative, adapts effortlessly to any situation, and brings such a calm, confident presence. She’s never pushy, yet she directs with grace, which made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. My husband and I were married at 21c Museum Hotel in Durham, and we wanted a blend of elegant, traditional wedding photos along with fun, fashion-forward, editorial-style images—and Candy absolutely delivered on both. Her editorial shots look so effortless, even though you can tell there’s a lot of intention and artistry behind them. We inquired with five different wedding photographers, but we immediately connected with Candy—her personality, professionalism, and stunning work stood out from the rest. Beyond her talent, she is genuinely one of the sweetest, most humble, and human people you’ll ever meet. Candy offers a truly elevated wedding photography experience, and I would recommend her without hesitation to any couple looking for timeless, editorial, and heartfelt wedding photography.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our story begins with me and my wife meeting at the gym in a cycle studio for the first time years ago. The gym is our most sacret place for both of us. So we agreed to discuss our ideas to Serge. His reaction became very possitive, motivating which gave us the confident that we needed. My wife is also a coffee lover and he suggested to take some pictures in a fancy coffee shot. It was hilarious and different but absolutely loved it!! We also both love nature and like to spend time outdoors. He took us to a magical place that is relaxing and unforgettable. We had a specific time of the day to perform our photo shoot, unfortunately, we were running late and my wife was very worried if we would have enough time to fit all our plans. At the same time Serge had other appointments after our photo shoot. He called to check on us to see if everything was as planned. We then explained the situation. Took it so calm and professionally that he understood what we were going through. This helped build back our confidence and encouraged us to continue as we talk about. Planning for a huge photshoot does take alot of time and energy to make it perfect. He explained that everything will be amazing but it wasn't amazing, it was EXTREMELY WONDERFUL AND BEYONG OUR EXPECTATIONS. We shared our ideas with him and later brought everything we mention to reality. It was all detailed to perfection and nothing was left out. He's skills were organized neatly that it was breathtaking. The experience we had was so much fun, exciting, and perfect that we can't stop talking about it and thanking Sokolov Photgraphy for everything they did for us. That's why we want to share this incredible experience with everyone. Once again, thank you Serge for the time and effort you put into our pictures. It means so much to us. And we love every single on of them. Rob & Cindy

Paul is an incredible photographer! He does outstanding work. Loved how he posed us and made us feel comfortable while he was getting pictures and video footage. My mouth was literally on the floor once we got our photos back. I could not believe how great he was at taking the photos and then editing them. Communication was fast and he also was quick to get us back quality work. He’s officially our family photographer for any and all events he’s available for.

We had a fantastic experience working with Nadine for our newborn and family photo session. From our first meeting, she was warm, kind, and incredibly professional—she took the time to walk us through her portfolio and made us feel completely at ease. During the shoot, she had such a gentle and natural way with our baby, and it really shows in the photos. We were so impressed with the number and quality of images she delivered—and so quickly too! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful, heartfelt family photography.
