Silver Orchard Creative

Silver Orchard Creative is led by Christine Baumgarten, a Maryland-based wedding photographer serving Washington, DC, Northern Virginia, and select East Coast destinations. Christine photographs couples who value emotional storytelling, refined aesthetics, and a calm, supportive experience. Her work blends romantic, film-inspired imagery with true-to-life color and a balance of editorial portraits and candid moments. She is deeply involved throughout the planning process, offering guidance on timelines, lighting, and flow so couples can feel confident, present, and fully supported on their wedding day.

We hired Christine of Silver Orchard Creative for our engagement and wedding photography in 2022 and our experience with her was an absolute dream from day one. From our initial consultation to our wedding day, she was beyond helpful, professional, and supportive. Choosing her was one of the best and most important decisions we made during our entire planning process. We were nervous going into our engagement session since we had never taken professional photos before, but Christine instantly made us feel comfortable. She taught us all the best angles, poses, dips, and twirls and turned the whole experience into something fun and memorable. Those photos are still some of our favorites. When our wedding day arrived, Christine brought such a calming presence. As soon as she walked in, I felt collected and at ease. She kept us organized and on time while capturing every special moment along the way. She offered timeline guidance, shared helpful suggestions throughout the planning process, and truly went above and beyond in every way. Looking back at our gallery, we are reminded not just of how the day looked, but how it felt, and that is something we will always treasure. Christine became so much more than our wedding photographer. She became our “life” photographer. After our engagement and wedding photos, we knew we would return to her again and again. Now, in 2026, we are thrilled to be scheduling a family session with her as we begin our next chapter as parents. It feels so special to have the same person who captured the start of our marriage now helping us document this new season of life. We cannot thank you enough, Christine!

Morr Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Gwynn Oak, MD

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Ginger Fox Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $3,450
  • Serves Gwynn Oak, MD

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!

Hi, I’m Jen El-Haddad, owner and lead photographer of Jennifer Mary Collective — a dual-city photography brand based in Baltimore, MD and Charleston, SC. I specialize in wedding and branding photography that celebrates connection, color, and storytelling. My love for photography started young — with a Polaroid sticker camera and a stack of disposable film rolls. What began as a childhood obsession grew into a lifelong passion for capturing emotion and artistry in every frame. I’m a curly-headed, Old Bay-loving, caffeine-dependent Marylander with a soft spot for Southern charm (and a colorful Lilly Pulitzer print or two).

Awarded Best of Zola
I can’t begin to express how happy we were with Jennifer Mary photography for our engagement and wedding photos! Not only is Jen literally the nicest human, but her ability to make 2 camera shy people feel comfortable taking pictures is incredible. Jen and her team worked so well with our younger family members (we all know that can be tricky), and she worked with our event coordinator to make sure we could get sunset pictures without disrupting the timeline of events of the night. Her creativity and attention to detail is outstanding, we would choose her every time!

Ladies and gents, wedding planning is stressful as heck... let me save you some grief, HIRE AKBAR. He captured photos I would not even have the creative imagination to request. Apart from the incredible level of skill that Akbar brings to his craft, his kindness and calming nature really plays a central role in making your wedding day better. Akbar went above and beyond, not only did he captured natural, timeless photos from the wedding... he worked with all of my vendors and family (edit: my crazy family) to ensure that everything went smoothly. After the wedding, many of my friends and family even noted to me that they noticed Akbar working tirelessly throughout the entire wedding to capture every special moment. If you want incredible photos and someone who genuinely wants you to enjoy your wedding day, hire Akbar. Best money you will spend on your wedding.

Shutter & Sound

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Gwynn Oak, MD

Hi! Courtney here (that's me on the left!). Shutter and Sound is the brainchild of renowned wedding videographer Ryan Geldermann. Ryan began his wedding videography career in 2010 in Los Angeles and quickly became recognized as one of the top videographers in the U.S.. After relocating to DC and still receiving countless inquiries from all corners of the country, Ryan decided to recruit and train a few talented friends so he could continue offering the quality wedding videography he’s known for in SoCal and eventually over 10 cities. Shutter and Sound is a very small group of filmmakers dedicated to turning your big day into a work of art.

My husband and I loved working with Shutter and Sound for our wedding!! They went above and beyond when capturing our venue and all the special moments throughout our wedding day. The videographers were very personable and easy to work with, and were confident in their vision. All of the deliverables came even sooner than we were expecting which was a nice surprise, and I've watched our videos sooo many times since we got them back. Truly a great experience! I'd recommend Shutter and Sound to anyone looking for quality footage that really tells a story. :)

Aleyna Rentz Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Gwynn Oak, MD

I’m Aleyna, a South Georgia native who’s been living in Baltimore for the past eight years. I’ve always loved photography — in fact, I got my first 35mm camera when I was nine years old. I’ve since graduated from light leaks and lens smudges to DSLR and, now, mirrorless photography. Professionally, I’ve shot photos for the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, the Georgia Southern University Honors College, and for various weddings and events as a freelance photographer. My travel photos have been used widely across the internet, and I've been featured in an F-Stop Magazine group exhibition.

Truly there are not enough nice things to say about Aleyna!!!! First of all, I really appreciated how transparent her prices were. It's all there on zola and her website. Nothing hidden or sneaky or added on later - her prices are not only exactly as advertised but criminally reasonable. When it comes to something like an engagement shoot (which is what we hired Aleyna for), she was able to capture the ideal balance between staying true to her own style as a photographer and achieving the vision we had in mind for our photos. She met us at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore and it felt both like a professional photo shoot and like a fun afternoon at my favorite museum. She followed us around, chatted with us, and captured a ridiculous amount of high-quality photos. And the photos... the photos!!!!! Seriously they came out like artwork! When I first looked at them I felt like I should be looking at them in the museum! She gave us so many perfect, stunning photos that were even better than the Pinterest board I showed her. Originally I planned on selecting a few stand out photos from the shoot and keeping the rest digital, but she did such a fabulous amazing show-stopping incredible job that I plan on making them into a photo book and using it as a guest book for the wedding. My Maid of Honor is using them as decor for the bridal shower. They're all over the website. People who see them GASP! TL;DR I am obsessed with the photos that Aleyna gave me and going forward will be hiring her anytime I need a photographer (don't mind me just googling excuses to hire a photographer). Please book Aleyna immediately and never look back!!!!!!!!

Mindy & Angel shot my wedding earlier this year and I cannot recommend Forever Yours Photography enough! Shot list; 110% completed plus more. They were absolutely amazing. They were fluffing my dress, tying my shoes throughout the night, offering extra photo opportunities when they saw them and even made our dinner plates from the buffet. They were kind, so much fun and such an added bonus to my wedding day. Their vibe was exceptional and my guests are still raving about how much they loved my photographers. My photos are epic and more than I could have ever hoped for. If you’re skeptical, just book them. You WILL NOT regret it!

I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based out of Pittsburgh, PA! However, the stories I capture don't start and end there. I love to travel to capture stories all around the world.

Awarded Best of Zola
I met Edgar, the owner of Anchor Studios several years ago when we both lived in Houston, TX. We met because I had just finished my degree and was looking for a photographer - he actually took my graduation photos! When it finally came time to book our wedding photography, I knew I wanted to go with him - no questions. His communication style is open and easy. He is responsive to all questions and requests which made the planning process a breeze. The quality of his work is truly top-notch, with beautifully curated photos that captured all the special moments of our wedding day. He is incredibly accommodating and guided us through every step of the way. He didn't hesitate when I even asked him to travel out to California for the wedding. It was awesome to have someone who is like an old friend and has seen us grow over the years capture our special day. Edgar, Anchor Studios Photography, was the perfect addition to our wedding day, and we couldn't be happier with the memories they've preserved for us.

Hi! My name is Madison, but you can call me Maddi. Raised in Maryland, I've lived in Colorado, South Dakota, and Germany. I now live in San Diego with my husband and our two dogs. I've always had a love for photography and I feel privileged to bring my passion to life. I want my photos to capture the genuine feeling of the moment and to reflect you and your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
Madison's not just someone with a camera and capability, she's a photographer with a natural good eye as well. We appreciated her clean subject alignments/angles and more true-to-color editing and were very impressed by the pictures we got back from reception, where we had pretty complex indoor lighting: A whole wall of windows behind us most of the time and then dark brown ballroom lighting into the evening (@Loews Hotel). Not to mention, we asked her to minimize using flash as a personal preference and she was so receptive and remembering of that too. Communicating with her was like talking to a friend. She was responsive, engaged, and inclusive. Could go on and on, but her images speak for themselves because she is consistent both in her photography style as well as personality!

We were incredibly fortunate to have Xiao as our wedding photographer, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From start to finish, she was professional, thoughtful, and dedicated, providing us with tremendous support every step of the way. Before the wedding, Xiao took the time to consult with us in detail, discussing everything from the style and color of my dress to the bridesmaids’ outfits. Her exceptional aesthetic sense and attention to detail ensured that every aspect of the photos would come together beautifully. On the day of the wedding, Xiao arrived fully prepared with an impressive array of photography equipment. She was patient, encouraging, and meticulous, guiding us through each pose and shot. She also thoughtfully scouted and selected stunning locations, making every photo feel unique and special. The group photos with our bridesmaids and groomsmen were especially fun and creative, with multi-angle shots that captured so much joy and personality. Throughout the ceremony and reception, Xiao worked tirelessly to capture every meaningful moment, leaving us with countless beautiful memories to treasure. After the wedding, her professionalism continued—she promptly created a shared folder so we could review and choose our favorite photos together. Her editing work was both fast and flawless, bringing out the best in every shot. Our entire experience with Xiao was exceptional. She is not only a highly skilled photographer but also someone who brings care, creativity, and passion to her work. Thanks to her, our wedding day has been preserved in the most beautiful and heartfelt way. We are beyond grateful and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly talented and dedicated photographer.

I believe you should be present on your wedding day, not rushing through a timeline just to check boxes. That's why our goal is to provide our couples with a photography experience that allows you to be fully present so that you can truly have the time of your life celebrating with your people, laugh your way through pictures, and dance the night away with your best friends. In the end, your wedding images should be a direct reflection of the memories you made, not moments that were forced.

I cannot recommend Meghan enough. We've just gotten our sneak peeks and I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for our full gallery! Our photos are stunning, and she went above and beyond just photos. When I didn't know where to turn in some planning aspects, I asked if she had any advice and she always came through. She was so chill throughout everything. She knows weddings like the back of her hand. I never felt like we were on our own. She kept me cool and calm when some family members sparked some frustration. She kept us on track with our requested shot list but also gave us room to explore different poses and different locations at the venue. She was also great at giving my husband (!) and me directions on how to pose (we're quite awkward in front of the camera) and managed to make us look like complete naturals! She also brought along her amazing team so we got so many pictures and amazing candid moments. Just a few of the sneak peeks have already made me tear up. Our day was amazing and I couldn't have asked for anyone better to document it all. By the end of it all, Meghan felt more like a friend than just our photographer. THANK YOU MEGHAN!! YOU QUEEN!!

As both a bride and a former wedding coordinator, I can’t recommend Kaytlyn enough! From the very beginning, she was a dream to work with — professional, responsive, and so easygoing. We first worked with her for our engagement session, and the results were absolutely stunning — she captured us so naturally and beautifully that we knew instantly she was the perfect choice for our wedding. On a personal note, I also booked a boudoir session with her as a surprise for my husband on our wedding day. She made me feel completely comfortable in a very vulnerable setting, and within minutes I was totally at ease. The results were elegant, empowering, and something I will treasure forever. On the wedding day itself, she blended seamlessly into the flow of events, capturing everything without ever feeling intrusive.

I’ve spent years refining an approach that allows me to sincerely honor the moment — knowing when to step in and adjust a subject or environment, and sensing when to stand back and allow a moment to just be. With me, your photographs will be an intentional representation of this time of your life — imagery that will make you feel like it was just yesterday, and yet, feel forever untouched by time. Truly, the honor is all mine. Thank you for considering me to document this luxuriously intimate wedding event.

They talked about our couple as if they were lifelong friends, which tells me that they make a true effort to get to know each couple past surface level. They delivered the wedding gallery in less than two months, and the photos are incredible!!

I document life, love, and every moment in between as a wedding and portrait photographer living in historical Carlisle, Pennsylvania. My heart beats for joy filled couples, playful families, and joy in the ordinary. I’m a firm believer that there’s no such thing as ‘awkward in front of the camera’, you can’t have too many cups of coffee in one day, and I am so thrilled you are considering me to capture such special memories! I am already dreaming about all of the heartfelt details of your story, and I cannot wait to connect with you!

We just had our wedding this past weekend and are so glad we hired Addie to take our pictures! She is the absolute sweetest person you’ll ever meet and her photos are stunning! From the beginning, Addie had amazing communication and made a schedule for the photography easily that fit our needs. She made sure to capture every family photo and other wanted photo I wrote down. She was always hyping us up and making us laugh! She sent us 11 sneak peak photos less than 24 hours after our wedding too!! We had the best time with Addie and would recommend her to everyone!
