Erin Kelleher Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
Harwood, MD
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,300

Residing on a country road, nestled between Washington, DC and Annapolis, MD, I can't help but pinch myself daily that I get to do what I love for a living. When I'm not capturing the love stories of the awesome couples I get to work with, you can find me loving every minute of life with my bald-headed husband, our sweet baby girl, and our big-eared pup.

Long review coming, but I can't help myself. Erin was the best decision of my wedding! I cared about three things for my wedding, and photography was one of them. Finding a photographer was a daunting task since at the end of the day I knew I would leave with two things: my husband and my pictures. From the very beginning, Erin was a delight to work with. Photography, one of my top priorities, became my lowest stressor leading up to my wedding and the day of. Erin is a phenomenal communicator. She is clear, timely, and respectful. She asked about our photography desires, encouraged questions, and confirmed information to ensure that we achieved what we wanted. Erin always responded quickly which was so helpful when trying to coordinate everything needed for a wedding. The day of the wedding she and her second photographer, Monica (an absolute gem!!), were excellent communicators with all of the adults and children present when relaying what they wanted and needed us to do for photos. They helped with poses and gave amazing feedback (both positive and adjustments needed) throughout the day to help us feel comfortable and get good shots (neither my husband nor myself are natural at posing, but our photos turned out amazing)! Erin is calm, organized, and KIND (exactly what a couple needs during the planning process and on the wedding day)! Everything was clearly outlined prior to signing a contract. Once signing, you have a login to see all of your information in one place (contract, payments, questionnaire, etc.) which makes it so easy to keep track of everything related to our photography. As a Type A person, I so appreciated how clear and organized all of the information was. She has a second photographer included on the wedding day who helps keep track of the previously-determined photos (confirmed during a phone call) and ensures that everyone is in place so photos don't take a million hours. We were able to complete all pre- and post-ceremony pictures (we had a lot) in about an hour total for both. She was so sweet and made both of us feel unbelievably comfortable. She's someone you'll genuinely want to stay friends with after the wedding! Both Erin and Monica were so thorough and detailed. Not only did they review everything I didn't know I needed to think about prior to the wedding, but the day of the wedding they handled everything with such attention to detail that it completely removed all pressure from us and our families. Erin and Monica knew the photos we wanted and made sure to get all of them throughout the day. They constantly helped adjust my gown, veil, hair, and poses to ensure that not only the framing and lighting was perfect (which it was), but that there were no little details out of place that would drive OCD me crazy haha. They also brought tremendous equipment that allowed them to shoot multiple ways in multiple lighting scenarios. We were married in an old church, had a reception in a wood-paneled moody, dark room, and finished with photos at the Jefferson Memorial. Every single venue had perfectly lit photos. They both jumped around, walked up and down, switched out cameras, and straight up WORKED (at impeccable speed) to get us so many amazing angles and photos. On top of everything. Erin helped us create beautiful photo albums for us and our parents. To say Erin is worth the investment is the understatement of the century. We are forever grateful to her for capturing our important day!

We were certain we wanted to work with Alex / Toussaint Productions halfway through our introduction call. We immediately knew that Alex would not only show up for us on our wedding day, but he would really get the party started. I think each of us (me, my husband, and Alex) were not sure how or what to expect from our diverse wedding guest list. Well, Alex worked his magic and had our dance floor PACKED throughout the entire reception! I still am blown away by just how epic and fun our ceremony was. I knew my people would show up, but Alex truly kept everyone going until it was time to bring the party elsewhere. Every single one of our guests raved about Alex to us after the wedding, and we still have people mentioning to us about how awesome our dj was. Aside from what he brought to the table on our wedding day, Alex and his team are professional, kind, and just simply passionate about their work. I would book with Toussaint Productions again and again, and cannot recommend them enough!

My husband and I hired Marc in 2021 to capture our wedding video. As soon as we met Marc, we instantly felt so comfortable and at ease with him and in front of the camera! He truly is so personable, kind, and most importantly- he is amazing at what he does. He was always right there capturing every special moment and highlight during our wedding- he didn't miss a thing. Even though it's been almost four years now, I still remember the moment that my husband and I received our video back from Marc (he had a very quick turn around time, by the way!) We watched it over and over and couldn't stop smiling and tearing up throughout the entire video. Fast forward four years later, we now have a two year old little boy and even he loves watching our wedding video with us! It is so special to be able to share a video of our wedding day with him. We are so thankful that we hired Marc to capture our big day and that we have our beautiful wedding video to look back on and relive that day as the years go by. Thank you Marc!!

Your wedding day will be one of the most real days of your life — full of emotions, laughter, happy tears, and the people you love most. It deserves to be remembered exactly as it felt. I’m Aira, a documentary wedding photographer based in Maryland, available worldwide. I show up, get to know you, and quietly capture everything as it unfolds — the moments you noticed, and the ones you didn’t. Gentle guidance when you need it. Just you, being completely yourselves. I take on limited weddings each year. If your date is available — let’s talk.

Our experience with Love Story By Aira Photography was truly outstanding. Aira and her second photographer were extremely professional, cooperative, and flexible throughout the entire process. Their communication was excellent, and they were very accommodating of our specific requests. The quality of their work was superb - the photos they captured were perfect, with Aira expertly finding the best angles to showcase our special day. She brought a second photographer which helped everything run smoothly. Aira was also very affordable, and I would highly recommend her services to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer. We are thrilled with the beautiful photos that will help us cherish our wedding memories forever.

I’m Laura - a photographer and lifelong storyteller who believes that being human is the art. I create imagery for people who don’t always see themselves in traditional photography: the dreamers, the artists, the misfits, and anyone still reaching for the clouds. My work blends editorial sensibility with emotional honesty. Think expressive color, playful imagination, and images that feel like they’re humming with soul. I’m here to make you feel seen, safe, and celebrated - because the best art happens when you’re allowed to simply be yourself. You bring the story; I’ll build the vision.

I can't say enough about how amazing Laura is!! Just by looking at her website you can tell that she is the most welcoming, genuine human being and the photos she takes captures everyone's personalities so perfectly. As someone who feels super awkward taking pictures Laura immediately makes you feel comfortable and it absolutely reflects in the photos. She did both our engagement and wedding and I couldn't have asked for a better experience and photos. I have recommended her to everyone that's looking for photos and will continue to do so

From start to finish Buxton Media Productions was the best! I was apprehensive at first about having videography at our wedding (but my husband really wanted it) I was worried about having a bunch of cameras all around and in my face all day and it could not have been further from that. Buxton Media was so professional they knew just how to set up and do things. They communicated really well too. I didn’t even notice them around all day (except when they introduced themselves haha). And our wedding video is perfect and more than I could have ever asked for. Seriously I am here to say- choose them! You will not be disappointed!!!!!

Within 15 minutes they had every vendor switched over to the rain plan, and somehow made it feel like that had been the plan all along.

We had our wedding in the ballroom. Very scenic and beautiful venue! Overall a pretty good venue that includes food, tables, chairs, linens, etc. The ballroom house itself is beautiful with lots of light indoors due to the large windows, and a nice deck for an outside ceremony. Zoe communicated with us and answered all our questions and did our tasting and planning, until a week before the actual day where we were assigned a day of coordinator. I found this system to be not great, since the day of coordinator was essentially a stranger that you've never talked to at all, and you basically have to re explain everything you want. Even though they have an online planning tool (which is old and outdated), I found that they got our aisle directions wrong, the reception layout wrong, and our dinner meals were wrong. Thankfully, we had a separate planner that was able to correct these things, so I recommend getting an outside coordinator that works directly with you if you have room in the budget. Another thing was our limited setup time of 1.5 hours meaning the florist and other vendors couldn't set up earlier with more elaborate decorations and had to do something simple. I found out that this is because they had another wedding at the same place before ours (literally ending at 4) and so they rush to get the place cleaned for the evening wedding. The main room and the suit was renovated, but the bathrooms were all still dingy and not the best/cleanest to use. The food was good though, better than we had at our tasting and they got it out fast. Our vendors were fed the same food, and our guests thought it was pretty good wedding food. Apart from the couple hiccups we had, we thought the venue was great overall and really beautiful and we don't regret having our wedding there at all. It could be a little bit better in the small details for the price though.

I am a full time award winning professional photographer born and raised in the Annapolis area. I photograph just 30 weddings per year, and I have photographed over 300 weddings in my 11 year career as a wedding photographer. I am truly passionate about creating images that my couples will love and have to look back on years and years from now and to share with future generations. I strive to be best friends and fierce cheerleaders of my couples, because you should not only love the photos your photographer produces, but also love the person behind the camera.

Christa delivered us everything we wanted and more! From the start, Christa was organized and communicative about everything. We got to know her during our Engagment photo shoot and were excited to work with her then and at the wedding. She helped us figure out our day of timeline and how photos would fit into it since we were planning on doing a first look and knocking out ALL of the immediate family portraits out of the way… and there were 140 photo combinations we wanted due to us both having 3 siblings each and divorced parents. Christa and her second photographer captured these photos ALL before the ceremony even started - plus a few additional photos we love but didn’t initially have on our shot list. We picked Christa based on her style and editing and we are more than pleased with the products. We have gotten back our full gallery and there are SO many photos - it’s going to be very difficult picking our favorites to hang around the house without overwhelming the walls . All of our friends and family love the photos so much and have even asked who our photographer was. We will always recommend Christa!

Let's be real. Weddings are wonderful and powerful and amazing days, but they're also big balls of stress. The best advice I ever received was from a friend who said, "find the photographer who can capture the amazing intimate moments, but also the person who you'd want to be a fly on the wall for them." After all, you spend about as much time with your wedding photographer as you do with your new spouse. Bethany was perfect for us. She captured engagement photos so stunning, so authentic, that I wish we could get a new set every year for our family. She captured perfect (occasionally hilarious) moments at the wedding that I would have completely missed otherwise - the way a friend helped you relax by pressing down on your shoulders as you got ready, the way your cousins looked at each other during a wedding toast, the way the cabin looked, it was perfect. And she created an amazing, dramatic photo that took full advantage of the rainy weekend. She's also just fun to be with; despite the stress around us, she was ready with a little joke that helped put us at ease. I think she's one of the only photographers who really got "me" in photos - not the person I try to be, or the awkward person who is trying to smile in the photos, but the person I am. I couldn't recommend her more.

I’m the owner of Nines & Co. Candle Rentals, and we’ve now had the pleasure of working with Bashan on two weddings — both absolutely seamless experiences! She is so professional, organized, and kind, making it effortless for vendors to do their part and trust that every detail will come together beautifully. For both weddings, we were able to come in, set up, and know that Bashan would handle everything from there — including making sure all of our candles were perfectly glowing for guests to enjoy a romantic, candlelit reception.

I live for documenting the connections between people—the genuine, unscripted, deeply human moments that tell a real story. I’m a wedding photographer with a fine art meets photojournalism style, which I began to cultivate while attending the Corcoran College of Art + Design in DC. I believe in “happily ever afters” because I found mine with my husband, Jared. We've been married for 20 years. I love photographing couples who (like me) have found their person—their best friend, partner, and soulmate. My mission is to capture love in its purest form and turn it into timeless art you’ll cherish forever.

From the very first interaction, Atalie was responsive, super friendly, understanding, flexible, and encouraging throughout the entire process. Her communication style put us at ease and made planning our wedding photography a breeze. The quality of her work is truly stunning - beautiful, clear, elegant, and artistic. Atalie was a calming presence on our wedding day, directing the shots exactly as we had requested. She was always in the right place at the right time, ensuring we got all the photos we wanted. We were amazed to receive a huge preview just days after the wedding, and the final gallery was delivered on time. We absolutely loved the pictures and would highly recommend Atalie Day Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience. Every time I look at the pictures again, I find more details that she captured and I'm so thankful! I would choose her over and over and over again!

Just got my full gallery back and this pic really says it all. Krystal did my makeup and my Mother’s makeup and we just look so much like ourselves! The way Krystal just enhanced our natural features shines through because we still look like twins like we always do. Krystal is sooo easy to work with from trial to wedding day. I couldn’t recommend her more.

MM Designs Photography specializes in weddings and elopements and can't wait to serve YOU on your big day. Whether you're hoping to have a traditional church-style ceremony or a magical elopement on the red rocks of Sedona, Arizona, I'm here for you! My goal is to capture the raw, wonderfully-made details of the ceremony that screams YOU. Marriage is a beautiful commitment between a couple before God, and there's truly nothing more powerful than that love. So, why not have those moments captured just how you envision them? The true, candid love you share in all its glory. These are the moments that inspire me, the moments God has given us.

Megan was incredible to work with! Right from the start she was friendly, personable, and professional. She made us feel comfortable and natural during our engagement shoot so we went into the wedding with no worries. On the wedding day, she was extremely accommodating and covered lots of ground to get the best photos. We got SO many photos with Megan and are extremely grateful of her support on our big day! I’d recommend her work to anyone.

  • Serves Harwood, MD

Like with anything I do, I’ve put much heart, work and energy into photography. Yet, the most rewarding part are still the emotions, and happy messages I get from my clients. Nothing charges and empowers me more. On your wedding day, you shouldn't have to worry, cause I am there to help you in every way possible. I make sure your dress is all nice and fluffed in every picture, that there is nothing in your teeth, I catch every fly away and I am there to be your hype girl.

Grace was an absolute gem of a human on the day of my wedding and leading up to it. I can't get over how stunning the photos are just from the sneak peek gallery. She has such an eye for unique shots and is amazing at directing you as well as your overly-stimulated new husband. We coordinated a ton of surprise aspects and were able to pull them off with Grace's help. She also ended up fixing boutonnieres, ensuring my hair looked amazing before each shot, and worked so well with our videographer, planner and all other vendors. I can't wait to see the full gallery and can't recommend her enough!
