We had a wonderful experience with Timeless photovideo. They we're very commutive through my whole wedding process and made it seamless. Our photos and our 10 minute video along with our 7-hours of raw footage turned out PERFECTLY. They captured our whole day! Paul our videographer was super awesome, got every angle of our wedding and including drone footage. Only mistake we made was not telling our photographer what photos we wanted of family and ideas we had wanted, so it made the photos unorganized after ceremony, but our photographer Jessica made it quick for us and captured whatever we wanted! We would have wanted our photos in front of our venue but they still turned out beautiful. I would recommend this company, time and time again!!

Brandon R. Walker Photography

  • Classic style

  • Serves Gainesville, VA

People inspire me, YOU inspire me. I’d love to capture your story. I've grown to know this about myself when it comes to photography: my favorite style is a blend of documentary & journalism... the kind that takes you back and makes you feel a part of the moment when photo was actually captured. The type that TELLS A STORY, YOUR story. The kind that captures personality, messiness, and REAL expression. I'm obsessed with being able to do all of this through a lens and a camera. Beauty is in everyone, in everything, and everywhere.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brandon was great to work with. He was very accommodating with our requests and made sure everything was to our liking with the photos. The photos themselves turned out amazing and the final images were delivered to us fairly quickly.

“How does a handyman end up in the wedding industry?” It’s a fair question — and one I get often. I’ve always considered myself a jack-of-all-trades. For the last decade, I’ve worked with my hands on all kinds of creative and practical projects through my part-time handyman business. That business gave me the flexibility to support my wife, Cassidy, in her wedding planning and floral design work — and that’s where my path into the wedding world really began.

We worked with Sean for some fall couples portraits and he was so friendly to work with. We had a rustic campfire inspirations and they turned out amazing! We can't wait for our wedding day!

Giuliana Farrays Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,950
  • Serves Gainesville, VA

I have an absolute passion for capturing genuine moments and the magic of love that couples share when marrying the love of their life. I love capturing every detail, every special moment you share, stunning portraits of you and your partner-- All of it! My goal is to capture breathtaking photos that take you back in time when you see them in a storytelling & photo-journalistic way and in a vibrant & airy style. Images that will be treasured throughout the years, not only by you but the following generations to come.

Giuliana provided the flexibility I needed. Being a new mom and trying to plan a wedding during a pandemic was more than insane. She was able to deal with my being bad at preplanning and need to change things up with little notice. I cannot express how appreciative I am of that! She’s very sweet and amazingly talented. My family was treated like people instead of clients and it made everything go so smoothly. Without her advice I would have been lost when it went to planning out the pictures. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!! Her prices are fair and she’s just an amazing person. Thank you for everything Giuliana! :)

Jen Wright Photography offers engagement, wedding, and portrait services in the Northern Virginia area. For more information, please inquire. We're looking forward to connecting with you to help plan your special day!

We decided to hire Jen as our wedding photographer after talking with her on the phone (she’s SO nice!) and seeing that she had reasonable prices. We were so happy with our decision!! She was super friendly and easy to talk to. Neither my husband nor I had ever done a photoshoot, and she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. I highly recommend having her do your engagement shoot as well, because it helped us all form a bond and I had ZERO concerns on the big day! She is very flexible and I felt like she was willing to do whatever it took to make our photos special for us. I was able to tell her exactly what I wanted, and she delivered all that and more! She knows what she’s doing, and her photos turn out beautifully. I asked for “fresh, bright, and candid”. We just wanted the photos to accurately reflect the essence of the entire day, and they absolutely did. She was flexible and willing to do what we asked of her, but also used her professional opinion and guided us when necessary. I had some poses that I wanted to try and she was always on board, and then her ideas were always amazing! Also, we got our pictures back SO FAST!! Lastly, she was amazingly flexible given the circumstances of having a “COVID wedding”. We would recommend her to anyone!
