Nadine Nasby Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,075
  • Serves Loch Raven, MD

I am an editorial wedding photographer who is passionate about documenting authentic moments from your wedding as well as fine art classic portraits. Aside from memorable photographs, I believe every couple wants a wedding photographer to be a trusted partner and someone that can add value.

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.

I can't recommend Aurel enough as a wedding photographer! From the moment we met, he was incredibly friendly, professional, and receptive to all our ideas. He has this amazing ability to blend into the background like a photography ninja while still capturing the most beautiful, candid moments. We ended up with 603 stunning photos—each one better than the last. Even though our venue was on the smaller side, Aurel worked his magic and made it look absolutely gorgeous in every shot.

Hey, I’m Aimee—wedding day bestie, professional third wheel, and the one who will absolutely tear up during your vows. I’m obsessed with love in all its forms—the quiet, stolen glances, the big, can’t-stop-smiling kind of joy, and everything in between. As your photographer, I’m here to capture your day exactly as it happens—real, raw, and completely, undeniably you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don't know where to even start!!! All I can say is that if you are thinking of whether to book Aimee as your photographer, look no further!!! I got married on 01/19/25 in Miami FL and I was blessed to have Aimee there to capture our day. She traveled to us from out of state and although we never met in person before my wedding day, I felt like I knew her so well. Her communication before, during and after the wedding was perfect in every way. She calls, emails, texts and zoom calls. Super professional and responsive. Aimee is also kind, calm and so passionate about her work. She made me feel stunning and captured all the intimate moments we never even knew we wanted. She is so personal and the end result is a lifetime of memories that look amazing and timeless. My husband and I are so glad we chose her as our photographer. I would do it again in a heartbeat!!!

  • Photographer

I’m a photographer, mom, wife, snowboarder, roller coaster enthusiast, former math teacher, and former mechanical engineer. I love the process of learning, which led to me earning my Ph.D. (but you don’t have to call me Dr.)! I have an extremely short attention span, am addicted to wearing beanies and headbands, and am fueled by chai tea. I'm socially awkward and I make weird faces when I concentrate to take photos. I dress for comfort and for rolling around on the ground, standing in creeks, and climbing into trees to capture the best angles for my photographs — but I do clean up reasonably well on wedding days!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were so lucky to be paired with Carrie for our engagement shoot. We were even luckier for her to do our wedding photos. Carrie will literally get on her hands and knees to get the best shot for you. She made the day or so fun and stress free which was so helpful with my nerves! She is one of the most creative people we know and I couldn’t be more happier with our pictures. Could not recommend her more!

I couldn’t be more thrilled with the videography services I booked through Enchanted Celebrations! From start to finish, the experience was absolutely seamless and exceeded my expectations in every way. My videographer, Jack, was incredible! He had such great attention to detail and truly brought my vision to life. I appreciated how he listened closely to my guidelines and ensured every moment was captured exactly how I envisioned. Not only did he follow the plan, but he also added his own creative touches that made the video even more special. I had a few minor requests for changes, and I was beyond impressed with how quickly and efficiently they were handled. The team offered a free re-edit, and within no time, my video was updated just the way I wanted it. The final product was everything I hoped for and more.

My husband and I don't have experience in being in front of the camera, but Brittany made us feel so comfortable. I am always shocked at how well she captures us on camera. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos from friends and family. If you're looking for a photographer who just gets it, hire Brittany. 3

Amaka and her team took over like we wanted and literally covered everything. The best part was how they helped us save tons of money on our wedding. Don't be hesitant in booking. Book them with confidence and I promise you will not be disappointed. Everything about your wedding will scream luxury and will be well organized. The price you pay is well worth it Somehow they found a way to even get my husband involved in the planning process because Amaka made it a fun process. She also gave us a planning book to help keep track and our own personalized google sheet that literally had everything including our guest list and how everyone would be seated. Amaka was always available when needed and if she wasn't, she delegated someone else. My husband and I loved attending vendor visits with her and she would always offer to treat us to lunch/dinner whenever we had appts. They went ABOVE and BEYOND to make sure the wedding was blissful. I recommended her to a friend who has a destination wedding next year and they are already in love. A planning company that knows what they're doing, very honest with you rather than telling you what you want to hear and extremely resourceful. We also got to save on decor because they provided rentals since we booked the full service planning and Amaka with giving us tips on how to save on decor. We wanted them to actually do the decor :-( but they couldn't at that time and was honest about it. However, I am excited about ariscreationz doing the decor for my friend's wedding.

We are all here for you. All your family, your friends and I (yes, me too!) are here to honor you on your wedding day! As excited as I am to get to the dancefloor with you guys, I know a lot of planning goes into making your day special. As your photographer, I’ve been to a few weddings and am just a call or text away from any insight you might want. I approach every wedding with the same mentality, how can I tell the story of today in the most real way possible? I’ve found the best way to do that is to just be me. I allow myself to be present and listen to the stories unfold throughout the day.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were so pleased with using Gabe for our wedding photography. His work speaks for itself - beautiful compositions and use of light, and the ability to capture quick moments and candid shots. I felt super comfortable with Gabe which was very important to me because I'm camera-shy and awkward. He was very down to earth and easy to work with. Also, though he is based in PA he traveled to NY for our wedding and did an amazing job. We even travelled to PA for an engagement session, which I initially had no plans on doing - but those photos came out great as well and we had a lot of fun doing those to get warmed up. Strongly recommend Gabe, he's the best!

We are sci-fi geeks and were thrilled to see that they had some movie and TV themes in their repertoire list that fit our taste, plus they accommodated some special requests. The musicians were professional on site and sounded wonderful - lots of compliments from our guests. Our processional and recessional were timed perfectly. Chelle was responsive and super easy to work with during the planning process. We had a very DIY wedding and she had some great suggestions that were helpful. Anthem is a fantastic choice for string music - they also have solo, duo and trio options, and a huge repertoire covering any kind of music you can think of!

Dana was the best day of coordinator I could’ve asked for! Everything I didn’t think of or things that went wrong I didn’t even have to worry about since she had it under control. So much to say about DM events - she set up all my decor beautifully and even came up with a day of aisle floral plan, was the only person that could put in my veil, figured out a seating chart mis hap with not enough seats and SO much more. Her and her sister were an amazing team and even managed to get behind the scenes videos while keeping everything together. While I didn’t have her as a full on planner, I’m sure it would have been a much less stressful process if I did. She was great at communicating the month prior and aligning all my vendors. Don’t hesitate and book Dana! Our day was so much more special and enjoyable because of her :)

Charles was a delight to work with. We won’t give away the thoughtful things that Charles surprised us with during our engagement photo session because, well, then, you’ll expect them and lose out on those “oh wow” feelings. Suffice it to say, we are still delighted months later. He had vision for our engagement pictures and they came out so beautifully we had them framed and placed on every table at the reception. (We had one of our guests say I’m sorry not sorry but I stole the picture at my table and I’m putting it in my living room.) Later, we found that two other pictures were taken by other guests. The ultimate form of flattery and quality of the pictures!! The ceremony and reception pictures look great of course, but Charles did a fabulous job capturing the little details of our wedding that many people might not think of. We interviewed several photographers but ultimately went with Charles because of his vibe. Very chill, very open to what we wanted. We appreciated that he did a walkthrough of the venue in advance to understand the lighting and what challenges there might be with sight lines. He also sent us an "Important Details Checklist" to make sure nothing was missed on the wedding day. That checklist included a list of important people who we wanted to make sure were photographed. We found the pricing reasonable and the transaction seamless. A deposit in advance via credit card to hold the day and the balance due right before the wedding, all through a password protected web portal. The best part was that Charles was communicative before, during, and after the wedding. He had a preview gallery of our best pictures ready by the time we got back from our honeymoon. We recommend him without hesitation.

Hi, we are Juniett and Julian! We believe that weddings are a place where extraordinary stories occurs. Throughout our life, we have experienced firsthand how these stories impact those around us, from the images in our family's walls, to memories retold at the dinner table. Our approach is mostly photojournalistic, ensuring each moment, from the quiet glances to the grand celebrations, is preserved in its authentic form. We blend that with a little editorial guidance to make sure you look your best, because this day is all about you—your story and your love.

We found Juniett & Julian from word-of-mouth to have a photoshoot to celebrate a milestone and we were just amazed at what they came up with! The entire process was incredibly seamless, from meeting them, coordinating locations (they have some good locations in mind!), to the actual photos we received. They work with you to ensure you're comfortable before, during, and they are communicative with after the photoshoot while performing final edits to the pics! Before Coordinating a time and place was easy, they're very flexible and timely! During They have a great eye in choosing lighting that best captures your features which is apparent when you see the final product. After Received the finalized pictures in a timely manner :) Personalities Gotta say this is the highlight of working with Juniett and Julian! They are very sweet, thoughtful, and a lot of fun to work with. We also had lots of laughs, oh the bloopers! In summary, if you need a photoshoot, these are your people! They are about their clients and it shows. We'll definitely come back to them, but until then, we'll just tell all our friends about the experience and recommend them :)
