*PLEASE VISIT MY WEBSITE TO SUBMIT A CONTACT FORM AT WWW.CANDYNOGALES.COM.* MY WEBSITE IS UNDER MY PHOTO ON MY ZOLA PAGE. Hi, I'm Candy! I love capturing all of the raw, beautiful moments as they naturally unfold on your wedding day. Candids are some of my favorite photos! Don't worry; I will most definitely get those posed family photos as well, but for most of the day, I'm there to document it all as it naturally happens. I would love to chat with you more about your wedding plans and how I can be a part of documenting it!

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.

**TO CONTACT: VISIT MY WEBSITE. I AM NOT ACTIVE ON ZOLA.** Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

Awarded Best of Zola
Met Nicole while working at a wedding in February 2024. She was very kind to our staff and not in the way at all. She allowed everyone to enjoy the party without blocking views or being rude. Yet managed to do her job with a smile the whole time! She is very pleasant!

From the hotel room to our 3am iHop run, my hair lasted the entire day. Serena has magic for hands, and she truly worked her magic on my wedding day. I felt so safe in her chair because I knew that she was incredible. When she emailed me that my wedding date was still open, I booked as soon as I could. Her work truly speaks for itself. Along with myself, she did two of my bridesmaids hair- one with brides and one without extensions (both are shown in the pictures). I couldn’t recommend Serena more.

LoKel kept our wedding afloat (literally). From our first meetings to the day of, these two ladies were exactly what us as a clueless couple needed.

LoKel was able to help us navigate the unexpected Hurricane Ian for our outdoor at home wedding and helped ensure the most fun for our guests and us. They spent the whole morning setting up and I assume problem solving (because if there were any, LoKel took care if it without us knowing) I'd plan ANY event with these two and would encourage any of you to do the same.

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Saint Michaels, MD

Saroj James Hyoju, got into DJ industry upon walking into Latin club in Dallas, Texas in 2015. Coming from band background, he was surprised to see how people were moved by “Gasolina”, a reggaeton song. Observing how DJ was controlling the crowd’s energy while enjoying himself, this made him curious about club music genres, besides metal and rock. Following immediately, he hosted a Bring Your Own Beer (BYOB) house party, where 50 people showed up. A week later, he was invited to co-DJ at one of his friends’ wedding reception and rest is the history.

We had the absolute pleasure of having DJ Saroj at our wedding, and words truly can’t express how amazing he was. He DJed all three days of our wedding festivities, and from start to finish, he kept the energy alive and the dance floors packed. Saroj played such a great mix of music that appealed to everyone — from our youngest cousins to our older family members — and somehow knew exactly what to play at every moment. His transitions were smooth, his timing was perfect, and he really understood the vibe we were going for. What made it even more special was his dedication. He drove out of state just to be a part of our celebration. That kind of commitment and professionalism is rare, and we are so grateful for it. Thank you, DJ Saroj, for making our wedding so unforgettable. You had us dancing all three days and gave us memories we’ll never forget. If you’re considering booking him, don’t think twice. Just do it. You won’t regret it!

I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

My husband and I truly thought that we could handle the wedding planning ourselves, but as we got to the final stretch, we realized we needed some help. You will see this for all of the reviews for Musa, and I am here to shout it from the rooftops - our wedding could not have happened without the help of Andi, Jen and the whole Musa team. We hired them for the final three months of the wedding and it was the best decision we made in that stage of the process. In addition to handling all vendor communication, timeline design and execution and day-of coordination, Andi made herself available for any/all questions, calls, and sounding board needs and moments with me, my husband and my mom. She brought to the process immense patience, thoughtfulness, kindness, and professionalism. Day-of, her work and the work of her co-team member, Jen, allowed all of us to really just take in the day and stay as present and grounded as possible. At one point, me and my bridal party went to get into our car to go the venue, and the car didn't start. Like a superhero, Jen pulled up into the driveway at that exact moment, and she brought us all up to the venue. Above and beyond the call of duty. This duo was a gift to my day, and I will forever be grateful for their talent and their support.

Introducing J.J.Ash Events And Designs, your premier partner in crafting unforgettable wedding experiences throughout D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. Led by the seasoned master planner, Ashanti Neal, our team is dedicated to translating your individual style into a celebration that reflects your essence. At J.J.Ash Events And Designs, we thrive on building genuine connections with our clients, taking the time to understand your vision and aspirations intimately. Ashanti and her team are passionate about guiding couples through every step of the planning journey, infusing each detail with creativity and precision.

Working with J.J. Ash Events and Designs for a Jacksonville wedding was an absolute dream. I was the cake artist, and Ashanti handled the florals. When the bride shared her vision, I immediately thought of Ashanti because I’ve worked with her before and absolutely love her work. She’s one of the rare designers who can balance creativity with realism while delivering flawless execution. For this wedding, we had to transform an inspiration photo into a glam-style red wedding design, and Ashanti absolutely delivered. The bride wanted florals showcased inside acrylic tiers for the cake—a unique and challenging concept. These acrylic tiers had to be sourced from London, measured precisely, customized with Ashanti’s florals, and transported from Virginia to Florida and survive 3-4 days. Not only did the floral design make the journey, but it also held up beautifully throughout the wedding. The result? Stunning florals that tied the cake seamlessly into the overall wedding design. The bride was overjoyed, the guests were amazed, and I was blown away. Together, we created a once-in-a-lifetime piece for a deserving couple and seeing the bride’s ecstatic reaction made all the effort worth it. Ashanti’s talent speaks for itself, but what truly sets her apart is her professionalism. She’s communicative, detail-oriented, and incredibly down-to-earth. She knew exactly how to bring the vision to life and worked closely with me to ensure every detail was perfect. Honestly, I couldn’t have pulled this off without her expertise. Good on J.J. Ash for requesting reviews from vendors and guests—it’s a smart move that highlights the joy they create for couples. I’ve seen Ashanti and her team work tirelessly through weddings, sometimes staying until the very end (I’m usually there past the cake cutting, haha!). By the time the dust settles, the couple is married, their photos are stunning, and their videos capture every magical moment. Reflecting on those moments reminds me how much of a privilege it is to be part of such special events. As a vendor, I appreciated how communicative and organized Ashanti was throughout the process. She asked all the right questions, provided clear instructions, and made herself available if I needed clarification. Unfortunately, not everyone in this industry is that dependable. I’ve seen vendors drop the ball, fail to respond, or avoid accountability—but not J.J. Ash. Ashanti and her team were on top of every detail and worked to have all vendors comply and work together seamlessly. Their dedication and professionalism made this collaboration a joy, and the end result was nothing short of magical. Their results don’t lie—J.J. Ash Events and Designs truly delivers excellence. Hats off to Ashanti and her team for creating unforgettable moments for their clients. I can’t wait to work with them again! — @ButtercreamPlease • Modern wedding and celebration cakes

Jenn was absolutely incredible to work with. I felt SO lucky when I came across her work on social media - which was genuinely more beautiful than photographers charging 2x or more. I probably inquired with 10 photographers beforehand, but the moment I found Jenn, knew we'd choose her for her beautiful work. We loved our engagement photos, and she gave us (stunning) sneak peek wedding photos the day after our wedding! From her "detail" shots, teaching us how to pose (thanks!), scoping out the best spots for beautiful shots, creating a wedding day photography timeline for us - she was so professional, creative, and easy to communicate with. Also as a side note, she is an engineer and I don't know how she is blessed in equal measure with both left-brain precision and right-brain creativity. She also has some very cool options, like Super8 film, polaroids, etc. that we opted to add on - her work is timeless and beautiful and I can't recommend her highly enough. Jenn - thank you so much for capturing these moments for us to look back on!

We loved our experience with DJ Eric at HB Productions! Despite the complexity of our venue having multiple different spaces that needed sound, he did an amazing job of setting up sound systems throughout the venue to ensure that our wedding day went smoothly! He had a perfect sound set up during our wedding ceremony with microphones available so that everyone could hear it despite it being outdoors. And during the dancing portion of our wedding, DJ Eric kept the energy up and kept our guests dancing! We had a planning call where he confirmed what vibe we wanted for our music, dancing, and party, and he brought the energy! We got numerous compliments about our DJ, and he did such a great job. We highly recommend HB Productions!

Paperboys

  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $5,495
  • Serves Saint Michaels, MD

Paperboys is a boutique wedding film/photo agency located on the ‘skirtz of Washington D.C. We started down this regal road in 2014 and we have the mountain of harddrives to prove it! We’re a collaborative team of filmmakers and photographers who live for making amazing things for the world’s most friggin’ amazing couples. When we started this business on a wing and a prayer, we quickly realized that working alone is not a ton of fun - some would say, it’s for the birds. So, we grew our team and that’s when things really started to come to life.

Hiring Paperboys was the best decision we had made in our process of wedding planning. If you're looking for a wedding videographer and photographer, look no further, THESE ARE YOUR GUYS! My wife and I had Paperboys photograph and film our wedding and they went above and beyond our requests and expectations from start to finish. Not only are they incredibly professional and a lot of fun the day-of, they delivered high quality product post-wedding and without delay! This team really knows how to treat their clients, and we couldn't recommend them enough!

Emily Avila Photography

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $4,300
  • Serves Saint Michaels, MD

Hi! I'm Emily! Mom to 3 kids, two rats named Frodo and Sam and a bearded dragon. I like my couples like I like my pets - just slightly unconventional. Dress fluffer, timeline-keeper, family wrangler, prone to squealing over a perfect ray of sunshine- I'll dance with your grandma, cry during your vows, and make you laugh at inappropriate moments. You're a badass and deserve the space to express yourself and your love EXACTLY as you are, no holds barred. Say goodbye to not knowing what to do with your hands, fake smiles in photos, and stiff posing that *just doesn't feel like you*. LGBTQIA+ and looking for a safe vendor? I gotchu!

My husband and I reached out to Emily after we found out my step-dad had a brain tumor. Emily met us with grace, understood the importance of the small moments, and captured our day in the most amazing photos! She let us be ourselves (goofballs) while also giving us much needed direction to achieve authentic photos of us that are STUNNING! On a scale of 1-10, Emily is an 11! We highly recommend using her artistic vision for your family photos, engagement pictures, and/or wedding pictures!

  • Serves Saint Michaels, MD

We’ve all been in front of someone’s iPhone for a photo. You might not think anything of it until you see it later & you don’t look anything like yourself. My mom loves to snap family photos, so I’ve been there. It's terrible for confidence & it's stressful when someone at the party says “let’s take a photo!” I get it. That’s why I do this–for you to see photos of yourself that actually looks right & you see your own lit up smile, you see yourself in that moment and simply how happy you were. I photograph weddings for that freedom & relief that your creativity & mine are working together to craft authentic, artful photographs for you.

Jenn is absolutely incredible! From the moment we first reached out, they were warm, professional, and so easy to work with. On our wedding day, she had this amazing ability to make everyone feel comfortable and natural, which truly shows in the stunning photos they captured. Every shot is full of life, love, and emotion—exactly how we remember the day. They didn’t miss a single detail, from the big, emotional moments to the little candid interactions that made our day so special. Looking through the photos feels like reliving our wedding all over again, and we are completely blown away by their talent. Beyond their amazing photography skills, Jenn was an absolute joy to have around on such an important day. They were organized, patient, and brought such a calming presence that made everything run smoothly. We can’t recommend Jenn and Studio Starling highly enough! If you’re looking for a photographer who will beautifully capture your most cherished memories, look no further. We’ll treasure these photos forever!

  • Serves Saint Michaels, MD

Growing up on a tree farm, plants quickly became part of my life. Observing how they grow, getting excited by the seasonal changes, and foraging to create arrangements became my passion. I love weddings and celebrations and incorporating flowers and greenery and unexpected touches.

I'm still so in love with the florals Kelly created for our wedding! We wanted to focus on using seasonal, local florals (as much as possible for a November wedding) and Kelly totally got our vision. She was super easy and fun to work with. Using seasonal flowers, we didn't know what exactly what would end up being available, but we totally trusted Kelly—it was clear she put so much thought and love into her floral designs. The final product was more beautiful than I could have imagined. Thank you Kelly for everything!
