Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac did a wonderful job photographing our backyard wedding. He did a brilliant job capturing my visions as well as brought ideas of his own. We are very grateful we were able to book Isaac for our wedding, he truly immortalized the day and we have so many beautiful photos to reflect on for the rest of our lives.

We were so impressed by 505 media and their quick responses and quality of photo/video they took! From the initial phases of planning, they were quick to respond and eager to help in the planning process of making sure timelines were manageable. They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures! You don’t hear that often from photography companies! We also watched our wedding video trailer today (which was delivered in less than 2 months from our wedding) and can’t stop watching it! I would recommend 505 media to anyone!!

Hi, I’m Serge, the photographer behind Sokolov Photography. I specialize in vibrant, candid wedding photography across D.C., Maryland, Virginia, and beyond. With over a decade of experience—starting in fashion and now focused on real, emotional moments—I bring a personal, dedicated touch to every celebration. From elegant hotels to rustic barns and Caribbean beaches, I capture each love story with authenticity and heart. Let's create something timeless together.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our story begins with me and my wife meeting at the gym in a cycle studio for the first time years ago. The gym is our most sacret place for both of us. So we agreed to discuss our ideas to Serge. His reaction became very possitive, motivating which gave us the confident that we needed. My wife is also a coffee lover and he suggested to take some pictures in a fancy coffee shot. It was hilarious and different but absolutely loved it!! We also both love nature and like to spend time outdoors. He took us to a magical place that is relaxing and unforgettable. We had a specific time of the day to perform our photo shoot, unfortunately, we were running late and my wife was very worried if we would have enough time to fit all our plans. At the same time Serge had other appointments after our photo shoot. He called to check on us to see if everything was as planned. We then explained the situation. Took it so calm and professionally that he understood what we were going through. This helped build back our confidence and encouraged us to continue as we talk about. Planning for a huge photshoot does take alot of time and energy to make it perfect. He explained that everything will be amazing but it wasn't amazing, it was EXTREMELY WONDERFUL AND BEYONG OUR EXPECTATIONS. We shared our ideas with him and later brought everything we mention to reality. It was all detailed to perfection and nothing was left out. He's skills were organized neatly that it was breathtaking. The experience we had was so much fun, exciting, and perfect that we can't stop talking about it and thanking Sokolov Photgraphy for everything they did for us. That's why we want to share this incredible experience with everyone. Once again, thank you Serge for the time and effort you put into our pictures. It means so much to us. And we love every single on of them. Rob & Cindy

I cannot recommend Requiem Images enough. I randomly found them on Instagram when I was searching for an elopement photographer. Being a photographer myself, I am extremely particular and was a bit afraid I’d never find someone to live up to my expectations. Not only did kitty meet my expectations, she exceeded them. From start to finish, I was impressed with the professionalism and love that poured out of this amazing human. I am, per my own designation, an incredibly awkward subject. I’m used to hiding behind the camera, but Kitty made me feel so comfortable. I honestly can’t believe the images she was able to capture. Her attention to detail and ability to make people feel at ease are truly a gift. Not only did I use her for our elopement, but I also subsequently hired her for our family pictures, and then my own branding session. She has raw talent and an eye for the extraordinary. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Requiem Images to everyone I know (or don’t know!). Book them immediately. You will not regret it!!

Momentous Memories Photography

  • Serves Rural Retreat, VA

Being behind the camera isn’t just about clicking a button and editing a photo and delivering it. It’s about making sure you capture each and every detail even if the couple doesn’t realize it. I’ve become passionate in what I do because I love the smiles that it puts on people’s faces and the happy tears that stream down their face when I deliver the most beautiful album that they get to hold on to for the rest of their lives. True love is real. Capturing my couples is like bringing a romance novel to life.

I will never stop singing the praises of Marylyn, the owner of Momentous Memories Photography, because she truly saved my wedding day! My original photographer cancelled an hour and a half before they were supposed to show up, and I was in full panic mode. Marylyn stepped in without hesitation and was at my side before I even had time to process what was happening. From the moment she arrived, she brought this calm, reassuring presence that instantly grounded me - exactly the energy I needed in the middle of the chaos. Not only was Marilyn incredibly professional, but she captured the most beautiful photos. I am still amazed by how she managed to step into a last-minute situation and deliver images that look like she had been part of the plan all along. I am endlessly grateful for Momentous Memories Photography! If you’re looking for someone who is talented, dependable, and truly kind-hearted, Marylyn is the one you want! She turned my near-disaster into something beautiful… and I cannot recommend her enough!

I am not comfortable in-front of the camera however with Andreah’s help, she made everything feel so natural. She made it a point to ask what photos/ poses we wanted, however she already guided us through everything we could have wanted. Her creativity, patience, and authenticity is so powerful in her photo taking and editing. In her editing, nothing is overdone. She was able to remove background objects to really create my Fiancé and I as the focus. Her creation of our photos really shows our love for one another. I could go on for days about Andreah and her craft, but my final words would be, 10000/10 recommend booking with her!

So what VWC does is they pair you with a photographer that they think will fit you and your style the best and let me just say, they knocked it out of the park. Ashley and (both!) Brianna’s were amazing, they made our day so fun and special! Their attitude and outgoing personalities were so fun to have on our day, they made us feel so comfortable and at ease with the amount of pictures we were taking! All my family and guests were raving about how much fun they were and how at ease they made everyone feel, and just how much they could tell they loved being a part of our day! As for the owners, Ashley & Luke, they very clearly love what they do and respect their customers. We had a bit of a snaffu early in our wedding planning process and they took care of it in such a professional and apologetic manner that my husband and I felt comfortable that we still would have them capture our wedding day. Honestly, their entire team was wonderful to work with and our sneak peeks are just absolutely amazing and iI truly cannot wait to see the rest of our album!
