We received so many compliments on them. She even went above & beyond anything I’ve ever seen & surprised us with having some of our photos taken during the day displayed on a tablet during our wedding reception as a sneak-peek.

She created a beautifully organized timeline that made the day less stressful & made sure to help keep me on that schedule to elevate added stress.

I’m Aprilynn, a Maryland and destination wedding photographer capturing love stories with a romantic, emotional, and editorial style.

My approach is natural and timeless, creating images that feel effortless while still telling your story honestly. Whether your wedding is on the coast, in the mountains, or across the world, I want your photos to bring you right back to how it all felt. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me traveling, drinking iced white mochas, and spending time with family. 🤍

We planned our wedding in just two weeks, which was incredibly last minute, but Aprilynn from Starrella Photography made the whole process feel effortless!!! From our first conversation, her passion for capturing special moments was obvious, and she jumped at the chance to be part of our big day despite the tight timeline. During the ceremony and reception, she knew exactly what poses to suggest, which made us feel confident in front of the camera and resulted in stunning photos we absolutely love. Her work is simply amazing—every shot feels authentic and beautifully composed. We received our edited photos so quickly! We can't thank Aprilynn enough for stepping in and delivering such incredible value, even with our rushed planning. We would absolutely recommend Starrella Photography to any couple, whether you have months to plan or just a couple of weeks.

Hi. I'm Teresa. While photography is a part-time job for me, documenting your stories doesn't ever get treated like it's not important. My full-time gig is teaching high school English and journalism at an all-boys school in Washington, DC. Journalism is my favorite subject to teach because it is as much about writing as it is about the art of observing the world, and I became a photographer because of my experiences in photojournalism.

From the moment we booked TCJ Design for our wedding photography, we knew we were in excellent hands. Teresa demonstrated clear, frequent communication and was a great listener throughout the entire process. Their work is simply beautiful, timeless, and captivating. For our engagement session, Teresa really delivered on our by the water/Maryland theme, capturing stunning shots that felt so true to us as a couple. On our wedding day, the TCJ Design team seamlessly documented every meaningful detail, delivering photos that are more beautiful than we could have imagined. We are so grateful to have these cherished memories to look back on for years to come.

Hi, I’m Amber, the photographer behind Amber Chole Photography. I’m passionate about capturing the moments that make your wedding day uniquely yours. I take pride in building personal connections with my clients, which allows me to photograph your story with intention, care, and heart. Every image I create is filled with thoughtfulness and passion, aiming to preserve the genuine emotions, laughter, and love that make your day unforgettable. I truly love what I do, and I’d be honored to help tell your story through beautiful, timeless images. Let’s make memories that will last a lifetime!

Aside from marrying my husband, choosing Amber as our photographer was the best decision we made for our wedding. LADIES- I know how stressful this decision can be. First, Amber as a person is incredibly positive, enthusiastic, and supportive — she never shoots down your ideas. She’s a kind and hardworking mom. As a professional, she takes her art very seriously. You can tell she thoughtfully tailors each shoot to match your preferred aesthetic and really curates to your vibe. Her editing style perfectly captured the colorful, romantic, boho look I envisioned. Her editing and photoshop skills are unmatched: she somehow makes you look and feel like the absolute best version of yourself. She executed every specific shot I wanted along so many creative ideas of her own. I fully trusted her. We could not be more thrilled with both our engagement shoot and our wedding gallery. I would recommend her to anyone looking for scenic, unique, vibrant photos that feel authentic and special. Hopefully one day we’ll get to work with her again for a maternity shoot!
