Enchanted Celebrations was truly an amazing company to work for. We got the package with photographer, videographer, DJ, and photo booth and it was the BEST thing we did for our wedding.

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. 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 went above and beyond with our engagement photos they are absolutely stunning! Neither of us had ever done a professional shoot like this before, and he instantly made us feel comfortable and confident. His kindness, professionalism, and eye for detail truly sets him apart!

Kandid Art Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,100
  • Serves Riderwood, MD

I’m Artur full-time wedding photographer behind the Kandid Arts. As a wedding photographer with roots in Europe and a heart in the United States, I bring a unique blend of cultural influences and experiences to my craft. Born and raised in Eastern Europe, I developed a passion for photography that has only grown stronger during my last few years in the United States. For the past 6 years, I have dedicated myself to the art of wedding photography, capturing the love and joy of couples on their special day.

Working with Kandid Art was overall a great experience! They showed up on time and made sure we got all the shots we wanted. Though the wedding ran a bit behind, they were flexible. The photos turned out beautiful, and they got creative with the locations given the cold, rainy weather. They even got some funny shots of the kids at the wedding that are some of my favorites! The video was also good, although I don't love that they had to use like stock music for the background (I guess it's because of copyright issues with other songs?). I wish they would have included audio of the vows rather than the cheers of the attendees, so make sure you ask them to do that if you want it! I do love that they provided us with all the raw video footage though, as some of the most special moments didn't make the highlight video. Due to the event running behind, the cost increased a bit (which I was asked about after the wedding) due to the 2 photographers needing to split up to cover the shots. I wish they had asked me or the Wedding Coordinator about that on the day of so we could understand better what was the issue, but it was a minor thing in terms of communication. Overall 8/10 rating and would recommend.

A lifetime of memories can occur in a single day. After months, perhaps even years of planning, you deserve to remember your "best day yet" through vibrant and meaningful portraiture. That's what we want for you: A positive, "we totally nailed it," "I've gotta show everyone," photographic experience from start to finish!

Awarded Best of Zola
I have to give all the credit to my wife for starters. She found Rachel and had such a clear vision for what she wanted our photos to feel like. Rachel not only saw that vision, she elevated it in every way. From our engagement shoot at One Eyed Mikes in Fells Point, to our wedding day on May 3rd, Rachel brought her creativity, professionalism, and genuine care to every moment she captured. The engagement session was when I first realized we had something special, Rachel used light so intentionally and understood exactly what we were going for. The results were stunning, and it made booking her for the wedding an easy decision. Fortunately, the stars aligned, and we were lucky enough to have her shoot our wedding. On the wedding day, Rachel was phenomenal. She had scouted photo locations around Mt. Vernon, including a walk through Flower Mart. She knew exactly where to take us to make the most of our surroundings. We also captured moments at Hotel Revival, and her attention to detail made everything run so smoothly. She took the time to understand what we wanted and helped us feel comfortable and confident from beginning to end. We’ve already received a few sneak peeks, and they honestly left us speechless. Rachel captured us in a way that felt so true to who we are. One photo in particular stood out to me not because I looked good in it, but because she somehow captured the exact energy and emotion of the moment. That’s a gift. I can’t recommend Rachel enough. She matched our style, exceeded our expectations, and brought my wife’s vision to life in the most beautiful way. If you’re looking for a photographer who truly gets it, someone who listens, prepares, and delivers more than you hoped for, Rachel Dibs is the one.

Margarita Photography

I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based right in Baltimore, MD. Originally from Greece. There is nothing that makes me happier than capturing laughter, love, and connections. I believe that everything happens for a reason

Awarded Best of Zola
After meeting dozens of photographers, scrolling hundreds of portfolios, and feeling like all wedding photographers were the same, I saw Margarita at a wedding expo booth. Her display photos were nothing I had ever seen from a wedding photographer before...an artistic voice. Scroll her work and you'll be relieved to find someone who captures raw, real emotion and doesn't rely on 50 filters and over saturation in her work. Her prices were incredibly reasonable so we booked her immediately. After talking with us, she suggested we do our engagement shoot at a brewery/arcade which we had never been to and now we go every week! Props to her Baltimore city knowledge and ability to read us to find one of our favorite places that has significant meaning More importantly, when we got our photos back, we were floored. Neither my partner nor I really like our photos taken but we loved the photos and how we looked. She brought out the models in us with such ease because the whole time you work with her it feels like your with a friend who just happens to have a camera. It all felt natural and genuine and you can see it in the photos. The wedding was the same thing - just a laidback feeling between my spouse, Margarita, and me just hanging out. Yes, she can shoot a camera. Yes, she can edit photos. Yes, she can properly read light and stage photos. All necessary skills of a photographer but her real skill is making connections with her clients and capturing genuine emotions and moments. She'll set your mind at ease so you can be present with your partner to enjoy your day then she'll deliver you hundreds of breathtaking photos. Book her, you won't regret it.

Layla was a WONDERFUL photographer. We knew from our engagement shoot that she would bring the same positive, warm, and comforting vibe to the wedding day but she exceeded expectations. She brought a second photographer (per our request) that we hadn't met before but both of them connected with all of our wedding guests, captured the most beautiful, intimate, and representative moments. We were sad when they left but not for the lack of photography! It took about 6 weeks to get our photos and they were amazing - we got nearly a thousand edited shots from the day, meaning we'll get to relive the entire night for the rest of our lives.

Bekky is the BEST of the best. I am so happy we had her by our side not just on our wedding day but truly through the entire planning process. During our engagement shoot she gave us EXACTLY the vibe that I envisioned, and she captured exactly how our relationship felt at that moment. And she is the ultimate hype girl! She exudes happiness & enthusiasm. Through the planning process she went above & beyond to give me a photographer’s perspective on wedding day details. Our wedding day with her was also a dream. She again captured the emotion & happiness exactly as it felt and her photos are just stunning. She got all the shots I asked for, but also so many other shots & moments that I didn’t expect and that we treasure so much. And again, the ultimate hype girl, her energy is unmatched. Finally, she got our photos back to us in record time and THEN even sent us photo keepsakes & a flash drive of all the photos. She is the absolute best. I could not be more grateful for Bekky, her talent, and how she forever captured our wedding for us. Hire her immediately!!

Her work blends romantic, film-inspired imagery with true-to-life color and a balance of editorial portraits and candid moments.

We hired Christine of Silver Orchard Creative for our engagement and wedding photography in 2022 and our experience with her was an absolute dream from day one. From our initial consultation to our wedding day, she was beyond helpful, professional, and supportive. Choosing her was one of the best and most important decisions we made during our entire planning process. We were nervous going into our engagement session since we had never taken professional photos before, but Christine instantly made us feel comfortable. She taught us all the best angles, poses, dips, and twirls and turned the whole experience into something fun and memorable. Those photos are still some of our favorites. When our wedding day arrived, Christine brought such a calming presence. As soon as she walked in, I felt collected and at ease. She kept us organized and on time while capturing every special moment along the way. She offered timeline guidance, shared helpful suggestions throughout the planning process, and truly went above and beyond in every way. Looking back at our gallery, we are reminded not just of how the day looked, but how it felt, and that is something we will always treasure. Christine became so much more than our wedding photographer. She became our “life” photographer. After our engagement and wedding photos, we knew we would return to her again and again. Now, in 2026, we are thrilled to be scheduling a family session with her as we begin our next chapter as parents. It feels so special to have the same person who captured the start of our marriage now helping us document this new season of life. We cannot thank you enough, Christine!

From our very first phone call, Rachel just got it. She was so down-to-earth and easy to talk to—it felt like chatting with a friend I’d known for years. She really listened to what was important to us, especially how much we wanted to capture the real, candid moments with our family and kids. That was a huge priority for us, and she completely nailed it. I felt seen and understood, which made the whole process so much more relaxed and fun. On the day of the wedding, Rachel was a total rockstar. She showed up with the best energy, kept everything moving smoothly, and somehow managed to be everywhere at once without ever feeling intrusive. Every single shot we hoped for—she got it. And the candids? Literal magic. The best surprise were the polaroids and the sneak peek book she created and shared during the reception – seeing the photos in real time made us so excited for the actual photos. We’ve looked through our gallery a hundred times and still find new favorite moments every time. One of the best decisions we made was adding on her content creator option—it was SO worth it & Jade captured the best moments of the night, set them to music and within a day we had a reel to share with our loved ones. Rachel and her team captured the very best moments that day all while allowing us to have fun and be ourselves. I am also impressed by how quickly everything was delivered – her communication is flawless, and I feel like I blinked, and I was looking at my photos. The turnaround time was so much faster than I expected, and the quality was beyond what I had hoped for. I am forever grateful that Rachel was a part of our wedding day!

For a better experience, send an inquiry directly through my website contact form. I'm Ciana, a documentary-style wedding and elopement photographer based along the East Coast, serving adventurous and experience-driven couples all over the world. Using film and digital mediums, I've developed a knack for chasing stories - the kind that are told through landscapes, reinvented traditions, fleeting glances, and wholesome conversations.

I don’t even know where to begin. Ciana is not only so sweet, kind, and personable, but she is also incredibly talented and creative. Her assistant Ryan is equally as great and fun and they make the most perfect team! Together they make you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We have used them twice, yet it feels like we have known them forever. The first time was for our pregnancy announcement session. Ciana and Ryan literally braved the windy 35 degree weather with gusts up to 40mph with us to help us capture photos to announce this special time in our lives to friends & family. I was so worried the insane wind would ruin our photos, but Ciana reassured me that they would still turn out perfect despite the conditions and to trust her. I truly don’t know how she did it, because they turned out absolutely perfect and beautiful. She truly knows how to capture the raw and genuine moments between a couple. Her attention to detail and the depth she captures in her photos is incredible. And the second time we used her was for our gender reveal, where my husband and I found out the gender of our baby together with our close friends and family. Ciana and Ryan captured absolutely everything about the day that I truly dreamed of. These photos will be forever keepsakes and always hold a place in our hearts. It’s so special to know we will always have these to look back on and smile and reminisce over and to be able to share this incredibly joyful time with our son someday so he can see how we celebrated learning about his life. My husband and I could not recommend Ciana and Ryan enough. They are truly the best team and kindest people. They will not disappoint you at all and will only exceed your wildest expectations. We are already looking forward to our next shoot and to have them continue to be a part of our lives special milestones, big & small over the years the come. It just feels like saying thank you will never be enough, but thank you!!

Hi, I'm Lee. Dreamer, Romantic, Storyteller... Growing up I didn't get it, I can tell you there is more than one photo of me with a bored and anxious look on my face. I can still hear my dad, who has now passed, say "if you don't sit still we will be here all day". As an adult, I now get it. Not being able to talk with my dad everyday or ask for advice, I'm so thankful to have albums full of family photos to hold in my hands. Fast forward to today as a DC wedding photographer, I want this for you. Nothing gives me more pleasure than capturing wedding photos that you and your family will cherish for a lifetime.

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

If you're looking for a wedding photographer that will go above and beyond, Sam is your man. He was so much more than a photographer. We cared most about the small, beautiful, candid moments people share with one another on a wedding day and Sam captured all of it. He has a magical way of capturing emotions and making everything seem like it is in motion. We had a small family wedding and Sam immersed himself into the day and our families. It was so wonderful. He did the work of three photographers and I'm still not sure how he accomplished it all! More than that, he was there for every little thing we needed. Extra bluetooth speaker? Sam was on it. Hep with boutonnieres? Sam was on it. The photos made us cry and captured the day perfectly. I am so grateful we were one of the few wedding Sam photographed in 2025. If he's available, book him right away!

Heyoooo, I'm Lindsay, a laid-back, artsy, candid-style photographer. Through my mastery of candid photography, my shoots capture you and your partner doing things, interacting, and not posing; which creates more dynamic and interesting images. AND bonus, it makes the process a million times more enjoyable and less awkward - so much so that sometimes people forget they are having their photo taken. STYLE: candid. artsy. natural. capture emotion. ME: queer. female. tinkerer. gamer. pickleballer. wino. laughs a lot.

Ginger Fox Photography was truly the best choice for our wedding photos. From the moment we first spoke, their communication style was clear, friendly, and high energy - we could tell they were excited to capture our special day. And the quality of their work was incredible, with candid, emotional, and breathtaking shots that made us look and feel our absolute best. Lindsay brought such great energy everywhere she went, which put us at ease and kept any self-conscious feelings at bay. We are over the moon with the final photos - they are creative, emotional, and capture all the magic of our wedding day. We couldn't recommend Ginger Fox Photography more highly!

When I’m not photographing weddings, I am a rock climber, scuba diver, glass blower (#breablowsglass on instagram), ukulele, guitar, and guitarlele player, world traveler, and cat mom to Sherlock (sherlocknessmonster on instagram). During the winter, I teach a video class at the Sheffield Institute of the Recording Arts and I love having a positive impact on my students. Everything I love to do challenges me personally and makes me a stronger person. I feel the most alive when I feel connected to this beautiful planet and the people on it.

I met Brea when she photographed my best friend’s wedding, and I knew right away that she was the photographer I wanted for my own. Brea is warm, personable, and took the time to truly get to know us as a couple so that our photos reflected what mattered most to us. She was incredibly responsive to every request, creative and adaptive in bringing our vision to life, and somehow managed to capture every big moment and quiet detail with artistry and authenticity. We were stunned when she sent us photos that very night! Her speed is matched only by the breathtaking quality of her work. Choosing Brea and her team was one of the best decisions we made. She didn’t just document our day, she told our story.

I'm a laid back, upbeat and silly (some might say incredibly funny, but whatever) person with a penchant for making everyone feel like an old friend. I enjoy being with people so my enthusiasm and joy on your wedding day is genuine! The greatest compliment I receive from couples again and again is that they feel so comfortable with me that taking photos wasn't stressful, in fact, it was fun! Your wedding day should be enjoyable and stress free; My goal is to make that happen as a team with you and all your other vendors, because you deserve nothing less than an awesome wedding day.

Rachel did our engagement AND wedding/elopement photos!! My original engagement photo photographer stood us up as we arrived at the site... Rachel was recommended by a friend of mine, and she showed up ON SITE in about an hour!! She even recommended a yummy spot to get a bite to eat while we waited! ...when our wedding had to be downgraded to an elopement, our choice was EASY!! We love Rachel! She is FANTASTIC! She's extremely personable...and hilarious!! We plan to use her for ANY photo opportunity that we may have in the future.
