Allyse and Nick are two of the most stellar people I know, and they have come together to create the perfect business: a husband and wife team capturing moments forever. If anyone knows true love, it's them, and let alone getting the most epic photo, it's also them. Allyse and Nick are professionals who take stunning pictures in any season and setting! They are masters of lighting and finding the perfect moment. I have known them both for many years and have watched them grow in their photo careers and then move into creating their wedding photo business. They have photographed many friends' weddings and friends of friends, never to disappoint! Allyse has always had the gift of capturing the right moment, whether in her work overseas, photojournalism, or later in weddings, and she never ceased to amaze me or anyone I know. Her photos have always been so powerful, and her reputation shows it. Nick's creative and whimsical photos matched her style, and when they met, they grew further together, making them the talent powerhouse they are today. Nick and Allyse are the team to hire if you want your typical and not-so-typical photos. They are fun and witty artists with cameras! They will capture all of the fairy tale moments, the getting ready shots, and the memory photos you will treasure forever, but they will also create the laughs that make the photos you never even thought of happening! Their style and approach of helping you through those beautiful yet stressful hours that lead up to the big moment with humor and charm is also why you will love them! These are the moments where they will get the best photos of you, your family, and then of you and your one and only. They both have the clever eye to capture the moments that later, upon looking at the pictures, you will think, WOW, how did they get that? Allyse and Nick are the team you want to capture your wedding if not for their charm and talent but their ability to quickly make a stressful day flow while capturing the best moments you will cherish forever.

Hi, I'm David, a Virginia-based photographer. Unlike many photographers, my introduction to the art of photo taking initially started off purely by accident. I believe everything happens for a reason and I am very thankful to be in the position I am in today.

I met Liz at a family wedding we attended in March 2023 and absolutely loved how their photos turned out! So when it was time to start planning my Jan 2024 wedding, I knew I wanted to reach out to her first. As so many brides know, one thing can lead to another and things change! I decided to cancel the January plans and opted for a more intimate, destination wedding in Lake Tahoe and Liz didn’t even hesitate to still be my photographer, even after I moved up the wedding to just a couple months out. She showed up, ready to make our photo dreams come true! I couldn’t have been more lucky to have her capture our wedding day in the most special location….still daydream about the day. :) Liz is so supportive and talented! She’s simply the best. Thank you, Liz!

Stephanie was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. On our wedding day, she was calm, friendly, and on top of it. She and her second photographer struck the perfect balance of being professional and efficient while also feeling like casual friends, which made the entire experience feel natural and fun. My husband and I felt totally comfortable with her guidance and direction during photos, and she made the whole process so easy, even with unpredictable weather and changing light. She adapted quickly and found the perfect locations around our venue to make sure we got the best possible shots. We were so excited to receive sneak peeks shortly after the wedding, and the photos were absolutely stunning. The quality was flawless and just captured the beauty of our day.

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.

Marylyn captured our vision with pure grace and sass all at the same time. She knew exactly what I was going for vibe and vision wise, we discussed. We can't wait to make our photo wall with out wedding photos at our new home.

When looking through your photos in 10, 20, or even 50 years, you want each photo to spark a dozen timeless memories – like the chill of the autumn air, the way your dress swung to and fro, how your grandma couldn’t stop smiling the whole night, the taste of your new spouse’s lips, and countless more. You’re looking for true and honest evidence that brings you back and steadies you in these fleeting moments. You want to freeze your day just how it is and cherish it forever. Hey, I'm Jess! You're in the right place.

I’m Hadley Chittum (she/they), a documentary photographer based in Richmond, Virginia working for publications like the Guardian, New York Times, Teen Vogue, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, and more. I started Lover Pics out of a desire to photograph more intimate stories and to document human connection. Because of my photojournalism background, I prefer to photograph weddings by sitting back and letting the action unfold. My process and style will work best for a couple that wants to be present in the moment and not have too many forced, posed photo-ops. But trust I'll always be there with guidance when needed.

Hadley was a wonderful photographer for our special day!! Both posed and candid photos came out beautifully and we love them dearly. Hadley is also a wonderful communicator and a great person to be around! We will definitely ask her to photograph future events.

As time passes I want you to look back through all your photographs and have all of those memories come pouring back into your mind. The moments of love, celebration, joy, the stuff you never want to forget. I'm here to help you cherish your once-in-a-lifetime love story, and celebrate your greatest achievements, and adventures! I want to celebrate it all with you!

We booked Colleen to do a wedding redo shoot 2 years after a hurricane swept through our wedding day. Due to a few different issues with our original photographer, we decided to change gears after Colleen was recommended to us by a good friend. Off the bat, Colleen was super flexible to schedule with and seemed so excited about our vision! During our shoot, Colleen made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. Something I appreciated so much was that she made sure to place emphasis on the things she knew would matter to me- for instance, she asked me if I have a “good side”, fixed my hair and necklace between takes, made sure my dress was lying appropriately, and gave flawless posing direction. Initially I was nervous that Colleen would think my wishes to be unachievable; however, she delivered everything I wanted- and then some! Colleen gave us more photos in a (less than) 2hr shoot than our wedding photographer gave us in a 12hr day. Her photos captured my exact vision- artistic, romantic, seductive, modern- all tied in a beautiful Christmas bow! Something else worth mentioning- Colleen left our shoot and *immediately* began working on edits. We were sent multiple sneak peaks DAY OF, and dozens more the following day! Entire album was completed with hundreds of shots by 10 days out. We couldn’t be more thrilled with our experience with Colleen and these photos that we can cherish for years. Thank you Colleen!

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

My greatest joy as a photographer is making sure you can relive your wedding or elopement day exactly as it felt - every laugh, every tear, every piece of love, and all the little in-between moments that make your story uniquely yours. I focus on capturing your day naturally, with documentary taking center stage and just a few gentle prompts for the portraits you’ll treasure forever. My goal is for you to feel completely present—celebrating with your people, soaking in the love, and enjoying every second—while I quietly capture it all.

Claudia has taken pictures of not only me but also me with my friends and they have turned out perfect. It’s the perfect vibe and she made the photoshoot so fun!

As a mother, wife, and believer in Jesus, I see the beauty in every tear, joyful smile, and heartfelt bond. A wedding is a moment to cherish forever, and I love capturing real emotions, transforming them into timeless memories. Through my photography, you’ll relive your special day as if it were yesterday.

I met Nia at a networking event in Richmond, VA and our energy matched so well that we exchanged numbers and planned to see one another again in DC. During weddings, events, headshots, you name it, Nia will always have a smile on her face. She commands the attention of the room to ensure we are running according to schedule and as a wedding coordinator it is extremely helpful. I appreciate her kindness and ability to have fun even in the most stressful situations. I can't wait for us to work together again. Hire her--best decision of 2024!
