We could not have asked for a better photography and videography team for our wedding reception! Bayo was truly a mind reader — constantly in the right place at the right time and somehow captured every special moment without ever feeling staged or forced. Arlene worked quietly behind the scenes, capturing every emotional, joy-filled detail so naturally that it feels like we’re reliving the night every time we watch our video. Their professionalism, creativity, and teamwork made the entire experience effortless. We’ll cherish these memories forever!

Hello, my name is Paul Roldan, a wedding photographer based in the DMV area and the founder of Paul’s Pro. Together with my wife, Letty Ann, we’ve built a small photo and video business rooted in love, family, and storytelling. I am originally from Guatemala, and Letty Ann is proudly Puerto Rican—our cultures, values, and passion for people shape the way we see and capture every wedding day. I’ve been living in the DMV area for over 10 years, documenting love stories, milestones, and genuine moments. While weddings are at the heart of what I do, I also photograph family sessions and portraits.

Paul's Pro was the perfect choice to capture our special day. From our first interaction, they were professional, prompt, and easy-going, making the process fun and stress-free. Their work is high quality and beautifully captured the style and vibe we were going for. Paul's bilingual skills allowed him to seamlessly communicate with both sides of our family during the family photo session. Paul and his team also have a creative eye, finding cool spots and angles for our wedding content, and their attentive approach resulted in amazing candid shots and captured all the little special details of our day. We love our photos and videos, and couldn't recommend Paul's Pro more highly.

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.

My partner and I reached out to Xiao for an elopement photo shoot after we got our marriage license. Xiao is always prompt in her responses and offered seamless communication. As newbies, we were a bit confused about the steps on how to get the license, although it was not her job, Xiao gave us many tips. Our elopement photoshoot date was a bit rainy. Xiao offered a few indoor photoshoot spot options. We ultimately went with the Library of Congress, and Xiao even helped us reserve the tickets. Xiao instructed us on how to pose when we felt a bit awkward. We had so many random funny encounters with other visitors at Library of Congress and they gave us many compliments. Xiao went above and beyond to mark sure the day was special for us and that the photoshoot felt personal and fun. My partner is usually camera shy but he eventually opened up. The photos also turned around super quick. The photos came out beautiful although it was a gloomy day. We picked out a dozen photos of our choice two days after the photoshoot and Xiao made the edits turn around super smoothly. Highly recommend booking her to make your special day memorable as well!

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.

From the moment we met Cesario, we knew he would be our photographer. He immediately felt like a friend vs. another vendor. He instilled so much confidence in us leading up to our wedding day. He was very clear and efficient with communication. He let us ask for what we wanted while also guiding us toward other fun creative ideas. On the day of our wedding, he and Paul were amazing to work with. Great vibes, controlled time well and captured the true essence of our wedding. Finally, the pictures were STUNNING. My wife and I haven't stopped looking at them. I would 100% recommend Cesario to anyone looking to capture their most treasured memories and hope that we get to work with him again in the future. Thank you!

Of all the photographers I’ve ever worked with, she is hands down the best—most professional, most creative, and just an absolute gem of a human.

On the day of our courthouse wedding, she showed with the biggest smile, the kindest energy, and a creative vision that had us feeling like movie stars. She was so attentive throughout the shoot, catching every little candid moment while also directing us in ways that felt natural and effortless. The photos came out so beautifully and we'll have them hanging in our home for decades to come. We got so many edited shots to choose from, and the turnaround time was ridiculously fast. Honestly, if you’re debating who to hire—debate over. Natalie is THE ONE. Best in the game, no contest. 10/10, would get married again just to work with her.

Working with Villa Li Photography for our wedding photos made the day amazing! Wedding photos are something that we knew we only had one chance to get right, and thanks to Villa, we have a beautiful recap of our day. From the moment we engaged with Villa we knew we had the right sense of style and organization that would capture the moment. Villa has an incredible sense of style and ability to focus on the subject and the background for the perfect composition. She has an arsenal of equipment that can be used for any setting to help adjust the light and filters to make everyone look their best! During our festivities, we had multiple venues that we needed to capture and some of those spaces were in residential homes. Villa was able to adapt to each situation and executed the photos to perfection! We love looking at what she captured in the homes that was part of our day. Not only that, but Villa also adapted to outdoor settings and then back inside for the reception venue. We covered all angles with her! Throughout the day she was calming and worked the venues to get the best photos. One of the wonderful things was her ability to get the candid shots of our guests which helped us show what a great day everyone had! Villa has a great way to share the photos and edits after the festivities. She is prompt and communicative even after the excitement has subsided. We were overjoyed with the final outcome! Whether you are getting married or need any photography assistance, make sure you speak with Villa to discuss your requirements and how she can deliver them as perfectly as she did for us! Thank you, Villa!

My passion for photography grew when my daughter, Lotus, was born in 2004 and I began documenting her childhood with an eye toward catching each irreplaceable moment. Soon, friends and then friends of friends asked me to photograph their children and families. Before long, I was documenting the lives and milestones of people all over the DMV area. I realized how happy I was connecting with people and capturing special moments, and so I launched Lotus Photography in 2012 - named for my first muse. I captured my first wedding in 2016 and I was instantly in love with being a wedding photographer!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Darcy was an absolute pleasure to work with and we LOVE our photos. She truly captured the emotions of the day and the essence of all the people we love the most. Any time i look at our photos, i find myself involuntarily smiling. She captured the classic posed photos AND the precious in-between moments where people are being their most authentic selves (the face my dad makes when he's really intently listening, the hand gestures my mom uses when she's explaining something and can't find the right words, the face my mother in law makes when she's cracking herself up, the face my father in law makes right before the tears fall, and so so many more). Not ONLY are her photos amazing, but she made us feel so relaxed on the day-of. Her style is totally unobtrusive, which is just what we needed. Darcy got such amazing photos of all our guests we put 4x6" prints in our thank you cards and people were SO appreciative. She's on fridges across America. Comments we've gotten in response to Darcy's photos: "WOW your photographer is phenomenal", "this is the best photo of us in existence", "you guys look so happy!", "I feel like the photographer really captured your personalities" If capturing joy is important to you, hire Darcy. My only regret is getting her for 7 hours instead of 9.

From the very beginning, Alie and Ritchie have been amazing! We started off with an engagement shoot that really impressed upon us their desire to know us, our style, and what we envisioned for our big day. They were on top of their communication with us, where we felt like they were going out of their way to keep us updated and engaged. On the day of our wedding, they arrived promptly and did their own thing without disrupting us. Sometimes I even forgot that they were there! One of the things I really appreciated about Alie & Ritchie is that they did a fantastic job keeping to the schedule we had gone over with them. After the wedding, Alie & Ritchie surprised us with a sneak peek a few days later, and the photos were breathtaking. Once we received our gallery, we saw that they did a PHENOMENAL job bringing out the beautiful colors in all of our pictures. To this day, we look back at them and feel so grateful that our vision came to life. Alie & Ritchie truly went above and beyond for us.

Based in Fairfax County VA, work in the DMV Area -- DC, Virginia, Maryland. I have a passion for taking beautiful, natural, professional photos, and enjoy helping people look their best in front of the camera, capturing that perfect, special moment, and creating a memory that will last a lifetime.

We had over 200 guests, and somehow, he managed to capture everyone — every smile, every emotion, every detail. From the decorations to the laughter and even the tears, every part of our special day was preserved so beautifully. Our wedding included both the traditional ceremony and the melse, held on two different days with two different receptions — and Fariss handled it all flawlessly. Capturing the essence of a traditional wedding can be challenging, but he understood exactly what mattered most to our family and got it all 100%. These are by far the best wedding photos we could have ever asked for. Fariss went above and beyond, always with a smile on his face. If we could give more than 5 stars, we absolutely would!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sharon! From our very first meeting, she demonstrated an incredible attention to detail and thoroughness that put my anxious bride-heart at ease. Together, we created a detailed shot list with us beforehand, scouted our venue for the best photo opportunities, and somehow managed to capture every meaningful moment of our special. Her mastery of natural lighting was absolutely magical. The venue had challenging lighting, but Sharon brought everything we needed to capture all skin tones! Even at the reception, she knew exactly how to work with the existing light to create warm, flattering portraits that made everyone look their absolute best. What truly sets her apart is her tenacity to get "the shot." The final gallery exceeded our wildest expectations - a perfect blend of posed portraits, candid emotional moments, and artistic detail shots that tell the complete story of our wedding day. And here's the sweetest bonus - she made us cookies! She showed up to our final gallery reveal with chocolate chip cookies and gifted us with several photos done on metal.

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

If you’re looking for someone who’s not only insanely talented but also a joy to be around, Stephanie is it. We truly can’t thank her enough for the gift she gave us. These photos are something we’ll treasure forever.

Hey, I'm Chris! Dog-lover, latte-lover, gym-lover, and cookie-lover I justify the cookies by going to the gym. One of my life goals is to have enough dogs (dachshunds and corgis) to create a sled team. I will use this sled team to pull myself around while shooting your wedding. I’m joking, unless you really want me to, in which maybe WE should get married.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband Will and I got married in October and we planned everything together. Hands down, the easiest and best decision we made (besides going through with the marriage ;-)) was picking Chris as our photographer. He was so easy to work with from the get go. We set up a brief meeting, shared our vision (we wanted a "photojournalist approach"), and mapped out a schedule of events. Anything that we did not think to ask, he made sure to bring up and help make our vision more complete. Chris was excellent at capturing all of the tiny moments of the night without being in anyone's way. The pictures that he captured were absolutely STUNNING--the perfect amount of sentimental moments captured in beautiful lighting and silly off the cuff moments that captured the essence of each and every guest. We would work again with Chris in a heartbeat and friends have already requested his contact information for their ceremony. As an added bonus, because we did not end up using Chris for all of the allotted time, he offered to do a separate photoshoot whenever we would like. It's those little attention to details and customer service which make Chris stand out from the rest. Overall, Chris was kind, professional, quick to edit and publish photos, and an amazing photographer. You would not do wrong by hiring him!
