Aleyna Rentz Photography 

5.0

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Riva, MD

I’m Aleyna, a South Georgia native who’s been living in Baltimore for the past eight years. I’ve always loved photography — in fact, I got my first 35mm camera when I was nine years old. I’ve since graduated from light leaks and lens smudges to DSLR and, now, mirrorless photography. Professionally, I’ve shot photos for the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, the Georgia Southern University Honors College, and for various weddings and events as a freelance photographer. My travel photos have been used widely across the internet, and I've been featured in an F-Stop Magazine group exhibition.

Truly there are not enough nice things to say about Aleyna!!!! First of all, I really appreciated how transparent her prices were. It's all there on zola and her website. Nothing hidden or sneaky or added on later - her prices are not only exactly as advertised but criminally reasonable. When it comes to something like an engagement shoot (which is what we hired Aleyna for), she was able to capture the ideal balance between staying true to her own style as a photographer and achieving the vision we had in mind for our photos. She met us at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore and it felt both like a professional photo shoot and like a fun afternoon at my favorite museum. She followed us around, chatted with us, and captured a ridiculous amount of high-quality photos. And the photos... the photos!!!!! Seriously they came out like artwork! When I first looked at them I felt like I should be looking at them in the museum! She gave us so many perfect, stunning photos that were even better than the Pinterest board I showed her. Originally I planned on selecting a few stand out photos from the shoot and keeping the rest digital, but she did such a fabulous amazing show-stopping incredible job that I plan on making them into a photo book and using it as a guest book for the wedding. My Maid of Honor is using them as decor for the bridal shower. They're all over the website. People who see them GASP! TL;DR I am obsessed with the photos that Aleyna gave me and going forward will be hiring her anytime I need a photographer (don't mind me just googling excuses to hire a photographer). Please book Aleyna immediately and never look back!!!!!!!!

Rudney Novaes Photography

  • Classic style
  • Serves Riva, MD

Hi there, I'm Rudney Novaes — And I’ve been intrigued by photography since I was a boy. In youth I discovered a fascination with film when my Father left behind a vintage camera. I was amazed by the mechanics of the time-worn device, in awe of its capability to freeze moments in time. Today, I’m an editorial and wedding photographer capturing stories filled with feeling, and my love of light and film continues to shape my craft. I’m passionate about sharing the knowledge I’ve chased since childhood with aspiring creatives and seasoned professionals alike, and I believe wholeheartedly that there’s always more to learn from one another.

I knew I wanted Rudney to be my wedding photographer before I even had a date or venue. It was love at first sight with his work, and he never disappointed. Rudney was so easy to work with, he is flexible, dedicated, open to your ideas while also giving suggestions to make sure everything turns out perfect. The day of the wedding was effortless, I did not have to worry about what my photographer was doing because I trusted and was confident in Rudney's ability to deliver what I envisioned. His team of professionals were also the best! I will forever treasure my wedding photos, they came out so beautiful and perfectly captured my amazing day. Rudney's work is exquisite, he is truly a master in his art!

Awarded Best of Zola
Matt through Enchanted Celebrations really exceeded our expectations. He was a blast to have around, he hyped us up, picked the perfect ways to capture our special day, and overall kept us on track throughout the day. We were so happy with working with him, and everyone at the event has commented on how great the photographer was throughout the event. After getting our photos FOUR DAYS after the wedding, we could not be more pleased! The turnaround on the edited photos was unreal, and the fully edited ones that we received exactly matched our desired look (dark and moody). We loved the way he captured us, our energy and the way that we interacted with each other throughout the day. He really caught "us" in the pictures and we'll cherish these photos forever. Big thanks to Matt and Enchanted Celebration!

Emilee E. Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Riva, MD for additional fees

Hey there! My name is Emilee, and I am a Minnesota-native living in NYC! I've been photographing people and events for the past 15 years. I shoot families, couples, individuals, and pets, but my passion lies in wedding photography. I love capturing the whirlwind of a couples' big day, and seeing the love that is shared between them and all their wedding guests. It's magical and wonderful every. single. time. My current active markets are Minnesota and New York, but I'm available to travel anywhere in the US and the world for additional fees!

Awarded Best of Zola
What a dream Emilee was to work with, from start to finish. OUR CEREMONY PARTY: we decided on a private, courthouse elopement on a Wednesday, a 60 person reception party on a Friday. In both, our biggest priority was having a photographer capture the intimate, joyful small details. We went with Emilee because of her eye for the beauty in the small things. She captured both our days perfectly. DOCUMENTARY STYLE: Emilee was perfect behind the scenes, capturing beautiful moments of our friends and family, small details of the courthouse with just us. I look back at some of these photos and ask "how did she even get that?!" She has such an eye. POSED: We had about 20 minutes dedicated to posed, family photos during our reception. Emilee had our families relaxed and laughing, quickly swapping members in and out. In some newlywed photos, we sought her advice for how to pose. She gave quick direction, made us feel confident, and always found the perfect light. COMMUNICATION SPEED: Delivered on every promise, quick replies. Emilee was 15 minutes early to both locations, we never had to worry. PERSONALLY: We met with Emilee about 4 months before our big days. We had coffee, talked about our vision and our biggest priorities. She immediately felt like a friend, and knew she was firmly on our team. If you're looking for a photographer to capture not only beautiful photos of yourself, but more importantly, the feeling in every room, Emilee is the photographer for you. We recommend wholeheartedly, and can't wait for another occasion to work with her. Sincerely, Mara James

  • Serves Riva, MD for additional fees

I absolutely love LOVE. I would love to capture your love story and give you images you will cherish for a lifetime. Capturing beautiful images is important but to me capturing beautiful moments is the most important. I’m a big fan of morning walks with my family, running, cycling, hiking, good music, sunny days, last minute trips, and apple products. I love Jesus, my wife, my daughter Harper, my son Smith, traveling, experiencing new cultures, my family, and helping others. As a husband, I firmly believe in marriage and want to do my best to capture all that it means to get married and to celebrate that with you through photography.

It’s honestly taken me way too long to write this review—not because I didn’t want to, but because Adam did such an incredible job that I wasn’t sure how to put it into words. How do you do justice to someone who captured one of the most important days of your life so perfectly? My cousin said it best, "Adam is in exactly the right profession". He has a calm, friendly presence that immediately puts people at ease, and that comfort shows in every photo. Nothing felt overly posed or forced—just real, natural moments full of emotion. He wasn’t just our photographer—he genuinely felt like part of the day. Like a good friend or a member of the family. He took the time to understand what we were hoping for, and he delivered beyond anything we could have expected. He captured the joy, the emotions, and all the little in-between moments we’ll cherish forever. On top of that, Adam was incredibly reliable, responsive, and professional throughout the entire process. Our families loved him, and several guests commented on how great he was to have around. And, his assistant, Katrina, was also such a joy to work with, they made a great team! If you’re looking for someone who can beautifully and thoughtfully tell the story of your day—and make the entire experience feel effortless—Adam is the one. We feel so lucky to have worked with him.

We cannot say enough good things about Albert and Sierra Black of Black Pearl Photography! From our very first conversation, they were warm, professional, and genuinely excited to help capture our wedding day. They made us feel completely at ease, like we were spending the day with close friends who just happened to be incredibly talented photographers. Their attention to detail is unmatched. They captured every emotion—from quiet, intimate moments to the wild dance floor energy—with such artistry and authenticity. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the day all over again. Their use of light, composition, and timing gave our photos a timeless, cinematic feel that we’ll treasure forever. What really stood out to us was how smoothly Albert and Sierra worked as a team. They were unobtrusive during the ceremony but always seemed to be in the perfect spot at the perfect time. They gave great direction during portraits without ever making it feel posed or stiff. And they truly went above and beyond—not just as photographers, but as calming, supportive presences on a day full of emotion. If you’re looking for photographers who are not only highly skilled but also passionate, reliable, and just all-around wonderful humans, we can’t recommend Black Pearl Photography enough. Our wedding day wouldn’t have been the same without them, and we are so grateful for the memories they’ve given us. — Cassandra and Anthony

I’m a fun-loving, passion-chasing, curly-headed gal looking at life through a viewfinder. My happy place is anywhere outside of my comfort zone, but a nature-filled walk chatting up good company is a close second. If I’m not planning my next trip, or dreaming up something to cook for dinner, I’m outside trying to meet my Fitbit step goal. (10k club, anyone?) My latest leap of faith? A cross-country move to sunny Orange County, California. This isn’t the first time I’ve packed up and jetted away from my home state of Maryland: Germany, Singapore, and South Carolina make the list too.
