The Pros does it slightly differently. They are in over 60 cities and they hook you up with a photographer for your day. We got matched with Hugh and we could not be happier. He did our engagement shoot as well so we got to know him before the wedding. The turnaround time for photos was crazy! We got our wedding photos back within 10 days and there is over 1k to choose from and they are all stunning. He got some really great shots of family members and ones I will cherish forever.

Cesario Mendez Photography

Washington, DC
  • Photojournalistic style

When I am not behind the camera or editing photos, I enjoy short Uber rides to bottomless brunch on the weekends; right now mimosas and I kinda have a thing going on! I have a special relationship with bourbon and FIRMLY believe in putting food on the grill during late afternoons should be the norm. I am blessed to be married to the happiest person on earth (I am so serious), who just happens to double as my favorite person. She keeps me grounded and never fails to remind me how great she is.

Cesario did our wedding photos in May 2021! He did a wonderful job capturing our wedding day! We loved our photos!!! They were very clear and beautiful!!! We worked with him through Tolman Media and we were happy they paired us with him.

Ivy & Quartz Photography

Bethesda, MD
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,750

Hi! I'm Nina and I run Ivy & Quartz photography! I shot my first wedding in 2013, but my journey with photography began long before that. When I was about 10 years old, my dad gave me a camera and I quickly became obsessed. My intrigue continued to grow over the years and I went on to earn my BA in Studio Art , Photography, from the University of Virginia. After graduating I worked as a portrait photographer and decided to pursue and earn my MFA in Imaging Arts from the Rochester Institute of Technology.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Nina was easily the best decision we made in planning our wedding. Nina was more than just an incredible photographer who captured unique and meaningful moments, but she went above and beyond in helping keep us organized during our special day. Her kindness and caring demeanor helped us remain calm during the wedding. She guided us through our wedding day order of events while managing a multitude of people and moving parts. She beautifully captured so many special moments. Her photos are stunning and we will cherish them for a lifetime. One of our guests summed it up perfectly, "your photographer is a MASTER, and I hope she has clients 365 days a year because she should....she's just that good." We are truly grateful for Nina, her photographic talent, and expertise. Hire her!

I am part of a husband and wife team. My husband Pete is a laidback Minnesotan and I grew up in Germany. Between the two of us we speak multiple languages. Though we are based in the DC metro area we love to travel for destination weddings!

Awarded Best of Zola
First of all, Anji and Pete are AWESOME!!!!! If you are considering a wedding photographer, engagement shoot, or just a lifetime shoot, look no further and book them. This power couple has some serious talent and it's to capture your day/moment in a way no one can. We couldn't thank them enough for our awesome engagement session and because we loved the shoot so much and the pictures even more, we booked them for our wedding as well. They are so easy to work with and truly know what they are doing. It shows in the quality of the images we got. Every little detail is captured and we got sneak peaks the day after our wedding! The best thing is that our entire family and all of our friends loved them. They were so respectful, personable, and friendly and they even remembered most of our family and friend's name and called them by it. Everyone loved our pictures as well. They both work incredibly together and they have an understanding like no other couple in the business. Best of all was that they moved like stealth. The last thing you want is a photographer who is constantly in your face and that you notice walking around taking pictures. We didn't have that feeling at all! In fact, we were quite surprised by some of the pictures they took because we didn't notice they were around us. Working with them is a breeze and they are super responsive to emails, phone calls, text. They are timely, friendly, listen to what you are looking for, and are truly passionate about what they do. Which is also what makes them great! Again, my husband and I absolutely LOVE them! And so do all of our family as well as all of our friends. Give them a shot or should I say, let them give you a shot (pun intended) and meet them. You will be so pleased with their work as well as their personality. I am so excited I have met and found them and look forward to a future shoot with them already :)

We are a passionate and creative husband and wife photography team who have a serious soft spot for documenting love stories. The big and little moments in life matter and we believe that everyone deserves to have photos that remind them of all the joy, tears, laughter, and adventure that surrounded them on the most momentous days in their life.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I cannot recommend Lindsey King photography enough. We planned our wedding in less than six weeks and she made everything extremely easy and especial. Our families only speak Spanish, and still, she managed to get the perfect family portraits. In the end, our pictures turned out to be better than anything we could imagine. They are spontaneous and have the most beautiful lighting (even though we got married on a super hot day in Alexandria). More importantly, all pictures show our real emotions throughout our special day.

Are you tired of scrolling through wedding websites full of photos of shoes/calligraphy/earrings/etc. and wondering where the people are? Do you love moments more than things? If yes, you're in the right place. Forget about the table settings, instead embrace spontaneous joy and honest, natural moments.

From the moment we met Darcy, we knew our couple's portrait session was going to be special. Darcy possesses not only an incredible talent for photography but also an exceptional ability to make you feel completely at ease. The session with my fiancée was filled with laughter and genuine moments, thanks to Darcy's friendly and professional demeanor. Darcy's attention to detail is remarkable. She found the perfect lighting and backgrounds that complemented us as a couple, creating a magical and romantic atmosphere. Her creativity shone through in every shot, making each photo unique and personal. The final photographs left us in awe. Darcy captured our love and connection in a way that was both natural and artistically beautiful. The colors, the angles, the moments – everything was pieced together flawlessly. These photos aren’t just images; they are treasured memories that we will cherish forever. What truly sets Darcy apart is her passion for her work. She went above and beyond to ensure our session was enjoyable and the results were more than we could have ever hoped for. Her ability to capture the essence of our relationship in her photos is a testament to her incredible skill as a photographer. In summary, Darcy is an outstanding photographer whose work is a blend of art and emotion. We highly recommend her to any couple looking to capture their love in a timeless and beautiful way. Thank you, Darcy, for giving us memories that we will treasure for a lifetime.

Natasha Lamalle Photography

Washington, DC
  • Photojournalistic style

The best way to tell honest stories is through keen observation. How do I know? Because I spent 15 years as a journalist before becoming a wedding photographer. By paying attention to the ways you interact with your loved ones, I capture the in-between moments that will, one day, be significant. And using a trained eye and subtle approach, I do so unobtrusively.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I were searching for a photographer who could capture our wedding as it really was, from the intimate moments to the wild dance floor, and Natasha's documentary-style fit our needs exactly! She listened carefully to what we wanted - minimal posed pictures, non-traditional "first look", lots of candids, etc - and she more than delivered. We had 130 guest count and Natasha covered basically every inch of our wedding day, no need or want for a second shooter. She was everywhere and so stealthy that we didn't realize she was so close to us the whole night until we got our pictures back. Our ceremony was outside and dinner/dancing were inside, and regardless of the lighting, the pictures turned out perfectly, she was even able to capture non-blurry pictures of guests jamming on a packed dance floor! She was a pleasure to work with, the instructions of her process were easy to follow from start to finish, and had a lot of examples to look through which gave us a good idea of what we were getting. We especially appreciated that she sent us a few pictures the morning after our wedding as a sneak peek, very nice touch. She's genuinely kind and calm which helped us remain present during our wedding day. Everyone who has seen our photos are amazed by the quality and we are too. We're thrilled we picked Natasha and highly recommend her!

Nicole and Jose of Bokeh Lane Photography are simply wonderful! So energetic and creative! They shot our engagement session and are slated to shoot our wedding whenever COVID allows for that. We wanted a photographer that has a great eye for candid shots and heard about these two from a friend who had their engagement and wedding shot by them. My friend’s pictures were beautiful, so I reached out to Nicole and Jose. They helped us with every step of the process, even with picking out outfits before the shoot. They’re kind and professional and just so easy to work with. I am not used to being in front of the camera, whereas my fiance is a natural in front of the camera. I told them that up front and they made sure to make me feel comfortable while just letting my fiance be himself, and the pictures came out so great! They are highly responsive as far as communication goes and prices are extremely reasonable for such high quality work. Highly highly recommend!

Hi - I'm Danielle. A wife. A mom to three wonderful children. A wedding photographer. I've been shooting weddings since 2010. 300++ weddings and counting. I love working with natural light, real moments, and images with energy and emotion. I would love the privilege of hearing your love story. If you'd like to inquire, please email or call to set up an interview.!

We booked Danielle for our engagement session and April 2024 wedding. Me and my husband aren't confident in front of the camera and at our engagement session, Danielle made us feel so comfortable. At that moment, we knew we made the right choice for our wedding day! Danielle was an integral part of our planning process - happily scheduling calls as needed to help us develop our timeline, narrow down locations for photos, and even providing us with a detailed timeline and checklists of things to bring for photos. On our wedding day, Danielle ensured that we remained on schedule with our timeline, capturing all the photos that we wanted and needed in a short timeframe. She made an effort to learn the names of our wedding party and family and provided everyone with guidance and feedback in a fun and engaging manner to make sure every photo turned out great! We recently got our sneak peeks back and were so thrilled with how they turned out. We're looking forward to seeing our full gallery soon! Danielle also provided a second shooter at no additional cost to us and he was absolutely fantastic as well! Chris handled getting ready photos of my husband and his groomsmen, making sure they stuck to the timeline, and getting them to where they needed to be - the hardest job of all. He was great to work with and captured beautiful images from different perspectives and angles that we wouldn't have gotten with just one photographer.

Photography, for me, is all about people. And I LOVE people. As a documentary photographer, I pay attention to the connections among people at events and make images that show the emotion, the connection, and the meaning of the moments I capture. But more than just loving photography, I've photographed hundreds of weddings over the years I've been in business and am constantly told by my clients how helpful, knowledgeable, and calming I am in moments that are new to my clients. And with a Masters in Photojournalism, I'm not new to this.

Chris is the consummate professional, he is so very talented on multiple levels, you absolutely can't go wrong, working with him. Call him today!

My interest in photography began at age 16 when my brother brought home a used Canon A1 from a pawn shop. My persistent attraction to the art of photography led me to the Savannah College of Art and Design where I received a BFA in Photography. I then ventured to Asheville, NC where I was surrounded by a creative community of artists and found a niche preserving timeless images of love-classics. Fast forward many years later, I now live in Washington D.C. which serves as my home base for my continuing adventures.

Theo = Many names beginning with the root “Theo-” derive from the Ancient Greek word Theos (Θεός), which means God; Many other names beginning with “Theo-” do not necessarily derive from Greek, but rather the old Germanic “theud”, meaning “people” or “folk”. (Source) -genic = produced by, formed from Theo + genic = Produced by God and the People

Take a few moments to go through some words from past clients describing their experience with us. You’ll also find us on Google.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a lovely engagement session with Josh. It was our first professional photoshoot as a couple and neither of us love being photographed (not to mention the fact that it was a 6:30am photoshoot for people who are not morning people). Josh made us feel comfortable right off the bat and made the whole experience an enjoyable one. He gave helpful and precise instruction on poses, which was important to us, but was also thoughtful in taking our suggestions into consideration. He quickly figured out our preferred sides, poses, etc. and tailored the photoshoot to our likes/dislikes. And the 6:30am shoot ended being the best decision we made since the lighting was amazing and the streets were empty. In addition to the enjoyable photoshoot experience, we loved how the photos turned out. Josh’s ability to capture candid moments and his unique element of artistry are so impressive. We would highly recommend Josh for any occasion!

Deciding to hire Megan was one of the absolute best decisions we made for our wedding day, and we can't recommend her enough! Our pictures turned out absolutely beautiful, and are so colorful and cheerful and captured our day perfectly. She also did a phenomenal job with our engagement photos, capturing some stunning shots in Shenandoah at sunset. We initially found her after looking for a wedding photographer who was also good with dogs since our ceremony was going to prominently feature our best dog of honor, and from our initial conversation we knew she'd be a great match for us. We felt super comfortable working with her, and her tips and advice resulted in some absolutely fantastic pictures (and some super adorable ones of our pup!). We got a great mix of posed and candid shots, and she did such a great job of capturing the fun. She was also extremely communicative and so prepared for anything. The weather on our wedding day was tricky, and when the sun changed to a sudden downpour, she had clear umbrellas ready to go so that we could keep taking pictures! Our pictures are everything and more than I ever could have asked for, and hiring Megan was truly worth every penny!

Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

Justin is extremely talented, and he makes everything so smooth and effortless. He's quick to respond to any and all questions, and in the midst of a crazy day, he is a calming presence. We never once felt awkward or uncomfortable while taking his direction. His eye for light and how to make you look you best is unbelievable.

We hired him as we noticed how, compared to the other photographers we were considering, his images evoked fun and a world of vivid colors, and above all, everyone in his photos looked HAPPY, which is a harder quality to find in professional wedding photos than you might think. Anyway, Justin did not disappoint! While a consummate professional, he was also incredibly fun to work with and was great at putting us at ease in order to get the best, most natural photos possible.

They are both visionaries with photography! Just check their portfolio and you will see! For anyone that is camera shy, they will make you feel right at home. If you think you're ugly, they will make you feel beautiful. Since the beginning while working with them on our engagement shoot - I thought of them as friends instead of working professionals. It happened naturally. After the engagement shoot, I was so happy that we would be working with them for our wedding because I knew that the pictures were going to be spectacular. They will capture moments that will make you say "Wow, I didn't realize that happen" or have you saying " wow I look good". Seriously, wedding photos are important. They are one of the most important vendors you can have. It's not something to cheap out on or trust with just anyone. I don't usually write reviews or wax eloquently like this about anything. However, I put my full vote of confidence behind them and I would recommend them to anyone. They are a team of fantastic photographers that will make your day one that will never be a distant memory because the photos they will take will make it incredibly easy for you to re-live.

My wife and I could not have been happier working with Emie for our wedding in Charlottesville, VA. We found and approached her at the last minute after the photographer we had originally booked needed to back out. She was so accommodating working with us and getting everything together on such a tight schedule. Furthermore, Emie made us feel incredibly comfortable throughout the day, and the volumes of pictures she took captured exactly our vibe and spirit as a couple. She got us immediately. From our initial phone call through beyond the wedding day, she truly went above and beyond our expectations. Thank you, Emie!!!

We are traveling wedding photographer and videographer. For 2024, we have 70+ weddings booked in 21 different states. Our shooting style is photojournalistic, natural, CINEMATIC to traditional. Our editing and style depends. Very easygoing and flexible depending on the client's preference. Our team is dedicated in delivering memories.

We were fortunate enough to have Randell as our wedding photographer and videographer as I just stumbled to find him in a local wedding facebook group and without a doubt, he is THE BEST! From the moment we met him, it was evident that his professionalism and passion for his craft set him apart. His efficiency on the big day was truly remarkable. He seamlessly blended into the background, ensuring he captured every significant moment without being intrusive. His ability to organize group shots and direct us for those perfect candid moments showcased his experience and expertise. Now, let's talk about the photos - they are nothing short of spectacular! The only "problem" Randell presented us with was making every single photo look so incredible that it's nearly impossible to choose our favorites! As an artist myself, to me each image is a work of art, reflecting his keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of lighting and composition. Randell not only delivered on capturing the essence of our wedding day but exceeded our expectations. His creativity and skill turned ordinary moments into extraordinary memories. We are beyond grateful for his dedication and the timeless images he has given us to cherish for a lifetime. If you're in search of a wedding photographer who not only meets but exceeds expectations, look no further than Randell. He's not just a photographer; he's an artist who turns your special day into a visual masterpiece. Thank you, Randell, for making our wedding day truly unforgettable!

I’m Sarah, wedding + elopement photographer documenting true and heartfelt moments wherever your little heart desires. My husband, Ryan is my adventure-loving second photographer and ordained officiant (yep, he’ll marry you!). We are city-dwelling nature lovers who strongly believe in having a good time. We call Pennsylvania home but travel all over to photograph couples in love. When not behind the camera or working on the computer, we enjoy cocktails, coffee, cats, and hiking with our toddler, Brooklyn.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sarah is the ultimate package - she is professional, yet fun, and is EXTREMELY talented. I fell in love right away with her candid style -- she truly captured the story of our love and the warm and intimate "feeling" of our big day. I loved that she didn't try to pose my husband and I, or my younger nieces and nephews, and just let us all be ourselves. She is the hype girl everyone wants to have with them on their wedding day; she gave us prompts to make us react naturally, and looking at our complete album, we were truly ourselves in the photos. I felt VERY relaxed on my wedding day, and Sarah's organization, combined with her relaxed, calming nature was a huge contribution to that. We also loved that Sarah did our engagement photos as well; having bonded and formed that in-person relationship prior to wedding day was another contributing factor to making our wedding day super fun and enjoyable. We would choose Sarah a hundred times over - she is amazing, and any couple would be lucky to work with her!!

If you’re looking for a Richmond wedding photographer, I cannot recommend Stephanie Jenkins enough!! We hired Stephanie at the recommendation of a friend - and I’m so glad we did!! Putting aside the fact that her photos are STUNNING (which they are), Stephanie had such a relaxing and fun presence that she made taking wedding photos a good time! It’s so clear in both her attitude and her work that she loves what she’s doing, and that makes the whole experience 1000x better. On top of that, her work is simply gorgeous. She has such an eye for angles and poses that really comes through in the photos. Stephanie also sent us a sneak peak gallery the day after the wedding (which is not the norm!), which was so nice and let us relive some of our favorite moments the next day! Stephanie was responsive, professional, and best of all TALENTED. Again, if you’re looking for a Richmond wedding photographer, hire Stephanie!!!

Tiffany has been my go-to photographer for more than five years now, and for very very good reason! Her work contains an artistic touch that I have never seen recreated anywhere else and her ability to make something incredible out of seemingly nothing in the environment of the shoot is unparalleled. In addition to high level results in artistic, family, couples, and wedding photography, Tiffany has done multiple series of head shots for me to use in my own professional setting - every time I update my LinkedIn or post those pictures to any social media the response is overwhelmingly positive! She brings so much to the table that I wait however long it takes for her to be available before getting any more photography done for me. I cannot recommend her enough, especially since her capacity to deliver clear, easy, and understandable instructions makes sessions a breeze and the kids always have so much fun working with her.

Quality: Jay was excellent. He captured so many great moments, great candids. Anything he lined up took a beautifully natural, but edgy look. He's great at this and it shows in his work and the way he makes his subjects feel comfortable and confident during the shoot. Responsiveness: he responded to all of our inquiries immediately, the weeks and months leading up to the wedding, until the day of, always communicating. Then kept us posted on the status of the photos after... which, by the way, were done within TWO WEEKS of the wedding. He even sent us some sneak peeks a few days after so we could share on social media. Professionalism: we contacted Jay to do a boudoir shoot prior to the wedding, which is always odd and a bit nerve-wracking bringing a stranger into such a personal setting, but he was professional to the extreme, great coaching, made us laugh and feel comfortable and had us looking our best. Value: he was with us for the entire day of the wedding, trying to catalog every moment as it happened. For the price, for his style and incredible skill, for the speed of return, for HOW MANY photos we got back (over 1,000!), his value can't be beat. Flexibility: he shot our private boudoir (indoors), pre-wedding (outdoors), wedding with friends and family, around-town reception on Halloween night - vast array of settings and styles with seamless transition. The dude is just that good. You're done shopping around.

While my teacher would conduct the class I would be interested in the images so I could make more of a connection. I was also dubbed the "family photographer" whenever there was a family function. I am more of a non-traditional photographer, meaning, I enjoy control candid photos vs traditional posing photos.

We hired Pixbyjay to do my daughters wedding. He let us know right away that this was his first time shooting a wedding. He was very professional and easy to work with. Any special poses we wanted he made sure he did it plus some.
