Taylor’d Southern Events

  • Serves Sterling, VA

Hi there! I am Lauren, the founder and lead photographer of Taylor'd Southern Events! I started my wedding business in 2012 and went full time as a wedding photographer in 2016 and i've never looked back! Getting to celebrate couples on their wedding day is one of the most rewarding jobs! My main focus is weddings and boudoir. I have traveled all over for weddings! A little about me. I am originally from Florida and relocated to Los Angeles for 4 years due to my husbands job. And now have relocated again to Maryland. I am adventurous, outgoing, love a good netflix binge, and my love language is cooking for others

Lauren was incredible to work with. She has great communication leading up to the wedding and made the day seamless. She knew there would be delays in our planned schedule and helped us navigate them with ease. The engagement and wedding photos she did for us are amazing and beyond what we could have asked for. I highly recommend her!

I was born and raised in a quiet seaside town on the South Shore of Long Island. I grew up in a place where good, strong love grows with parents who have been together since they were 16 years old. They taught me that true love grows in the face of hardship and, as strong believers in their faith, that love is, indeed, patient and kind. And so as soon as I realized that wedding photography didn’t have to be posed and mechanical; that I could shoot weddings from a more organic and authentic lens; that I could document a story, not direct one, I was hooked!

Having a good photographer was one of my priorities for my wedding. I knew the day was going to be a whirlwind and I wanted to be able to look back and at least have one photo where my eyes weren’t closed or something. Lauren absolutely delivered — I don’t think we’ve ever looked as good in pictures and I know I probably won’t again!! Lauren also recommended Elizabeth for our day-of coordinator and I don’t know what we would have done without her — I definitely would have lost my mind, of that I’m sure. First, I can’t overstate the importance of finding a photographer with whom you have a good rapport — Lauren has this charisma where you instantly feel at ease and like you’ve known her your whole life. It frankly made me less nervous and I think that translates really well in the photos. She’s also a master of making you look the best in posed photos - giving little positioning directions that you look elegant without looking stiff. Every time I look at the pictures I’ll notice another candid moment that Lauren managed to capture or simply marvel at how she somehow can translate emotion in a still picture — I find myself smiling and definitely not crying (jk definitely crying) because you can FEEL what we were feeling in these photos. Second, get you a planner who is superhuman. Elizabeth took over six weeks (!) before the wedding and it was like a literal weight was lifted from my shoulders. At our first meeting she went through her checklist (and mine bc of course I had my own) and said “I’ll take care of it” to literally everything... and then...did?? I was fully prepared to have to follow up with vendors and micromanage but I basically didn’t have to do anything. It was magical. Elizabeth and her team did so much work and went above and beyond in literally every way to ensure we had a perfect day. Anyway, if you’re struggling with choosing a photographer because there are 72525 million to choose from, and you like the style of Lauren’s photos, go for it ASAP. Lauren is incredible and I feel so lucky that we were able to work with her. And if you need a day-of coordinator (or a full blown wedding planner!) pick Elizabeth - she has the eye for design and the capability to pull it off and pull it off well!

I love how exciting and creative wedding photography can be while also giving me the opportunity to create something that is so meaningful to others. I got started with photography back in Michigan as a kid with my mom's old Minolta SLR. It wasn't until years later at art school in Kansas City that I realized how fulfilling and exciting wedding photography could be. It has been my focus ever since.

Asa is an absolutely amazing photographer to work with. My husband and I booked him for our wedding back in 2017, and we loved our photos so much that I invited him to be a preferred partner at a new event venue I helped open in 2019. He does wonderful work with lighting in particular. As a bride, he made us feel very natural, and we had a lot of fun with our photo session. I highly recommend him for wedding and family photography!

At the heart of my process, I believe in being a calming presence who gives you room to be the most genuine version of yourself in front of my camera, gently guiding you with prompts while capturing sophisticated portraits and true moments. As a bride, you know how fleeting the moments of your wedding day will pass you by. So rather than worrying if you’re missing any of it you value being present, and will hire a photographer who will allow you to do just that. This trust grants you the ability to live in the moment while we’re documenting them for you telling the story of your relationships with a gentle authenticity.

My husband and I got married in December 2022 and realized a bit last-minute that we needed a Rehearsal Dinner photographer! Amanda was so accommodating and scheduled a conversation before the big weekend to go over all of our photo dreams and logistics. Not only is Amanda warm, kind, and easy to work with, her photos are absolutely stunning! Her work is light and airy with an incredibly timeless feel. With all the excitement and nerves of wedding weekend, Amanda was the calming presence we needed before our Rehearsal! We loved her photos so much, that we scheduled a Christmas card/one-year wedding anniversary photoshoot with her one year later in November 2023, with two large pups in tow! We give our highest recommendation for Amanda and her work and we are so lucky to call her our new family photographer!

Daniela Zapata Photography is dedicated to capturing joy in every frame, and love in every moment. The DZP wedding experience includes thoughtful timeline planning, stress-free posing, and professional guidance every step of the way. I did my job right if your grandkids fight over your wedding photos one day (in a loving way, of course).

We chose Daniela to photograph our wedding day – she was absolutely amazing to work with from start to finish! When we were deciding to book with her, she took time to understand our vision and make sure we were a good fit. Daniela came prepared and organized to every meeting, crafting our shot list and what we wanted to capture for our big day. Daniela took time to come to the rehearsal dinner and took fantastic candid photos. On the big day, Daniela and her second photographer Kranthi were so helpful – capturing getting ready and the big moments before during and after the ceremony. The photos turned out incredible – they captured our vision and our day perfectly. Daniela’s energy was also fantastic; she brought a bright and energetic vibe that made her a delight to work with. We would recommend Daniela for ANY event – she is a fantastic photographer and you will not regret choosing her.

As a wedding photographer, capturing what is by far one of the most important days of someone's life is just such an honor and an experience.

It is my honor to capture the purest and most sincere moments in peoples’ lives. Not only do I take pride in providing my clients with stunning images, I do so in a way that is always professional and engaging. Weddings don’t always go exactly as planned. Sometimes there is bad weather, poor lighting, or the timeline just gets derailed. It happens! My clients know that they never need to worry. Dealing with surprises is second nature to me, and my career as a seasoned photographer allows me to never skip a beat. The details of your special day will always be captured beautifully.

Good communication and team work; exquisite photos

Being a mother, wife, and believer in Jesus has made me see the beauty of tears, smiles of joy, and bonds of union between two people ready for their new journey. A wedding is a celebratory day that everybody needs to remember as if it were yesterday, and that’s the reason why I love to capture real moments and transform them into memories. I will trace a timeline with the photos of your big day, and it will be like returning to the most beautiful day of your life. Because the things you live, I living them through my eyes.

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!

Amy Jennings Photography Videography captures your special moments and make memories come alive everytime you look at a picture. Personally & Professionally I believe in inclusion and equality to all.

From the first night we talked with Amy about our engagement photos, wedding vision and desires for timeless and clean pictures and videography, both Amy and Scott exceeded our expectations. Looking back on our wedding day, Amy and Scott were so much more than our photographer and videographer. They captured our day beautifully and worked seamlessly with our additional vendors to make the day perfect. Amy also came to our rehearsal dinner to further help in the organization which was amazing. The quality of the work that Amy and Scott Jennings produce is a reflection of the kind and wonderful people that they are. Five stars is truly not enough to rate Amy Jennings because she is an extraordinary talent. We would highly recommend Jennings Photography without reservation! Thank you, Scott and Amy both for using your gifts to produce priceless pictures of our special day!!

Photographing weddings isn't a job I take lightly. This is one of the most important days of your life, and you want to have quality photographs to remember it by! I love all types of weddings. Whether they're big or small or at a venue or in your parent's backyard, I will photograph the heck out of it. I appreciate attention to detail, while remembering the photos you'll cling to maybe aren't your shoes, but the ones of you and your mom, or your grandparents, or your extended family from out of town.

I have worked with Lindsey many times before, and each time I work with her I am even more impressed. She truly makes the entire process so flawless and easy. My wedding day would not have been the same without her and her second shooter! I recommend Lindsey a thousand times over!

I’m Vanessa, a Gaithersburg, MD-based couple + wedding photographer for the wildly in-love. My life was changed by love. Seriously, rocked, rumbled, wrecked, repeat. Okay, it might sound dramatic, but my relationship with my now-husband has truly changed my world and soul for the better. We were lil baby high school sweethearts turned long distance when my husband joined the Marine Corps, and our journey together means absolutely everything to me. I know yours does too, and getting to capture it is the hugest joy and honor.

Vanessa’s passion for everyone’s love story shines through from the moment you meet her. I’ve truly never met anyone that is as excited for someone else’s love and their love story. I believe this is what makes her so incredibly special and amazing at what she does. I wanted a warmer, boho vibe in our photos and we are absolutely obsessed with every moment, detail, and emotion captured during our special day. Vanessa’s professionalism and calming demeanor is also something that every wedding couple is lucky to have on their day. She used cues that make sense, wrangled our rowdy crowd with ease, and even had the littles ready for their red carpet debut in front of the camera. I can’t recommend Vanessa enough… I know I’ll be reaching out again for all of our special moments through life.

I am so excited you're here! My name is Erin, and I'm your Washington DC area wedding photographer. I'm a sucker for stunning natural light, and have a passion for preserving precious moments and everyday beauty. Big smiles, infectious laughter, colorful flowers and the clinking of champagne glasses are just a few of my favorite things.

I found Erin through another DC wedding photographer who wasn't available on my wedding day but highly recommended her based on their similar photography style: classic and elegant. These adjectives were exactly what I wanted for our wedding day - someone who can capture our big day, while also finding beauty in the smallest details to the grandest backdrop. When I shared her work with a number of photographers, they quickly identified Erin's work was exceptional. After our first video call, I found Erin so easy to talk to and knew that I could trust her on our big day. When we first started to work with her on our engagement photo shoot, Erin was so fun and made us look so effortlessly beautiful. I was terrified of looking awkward, but she knew all the ways to make us look natural and elegant. Erin was also prompt in getting us our engagement photos since we wanted to share them on our wedding website; many of our friends and family were shocked by how amazing we looked in the DC landmarks. Weeks before the wedding, Erin went to our venues to get a feel of the atmosphere and to figure out if there would be any other issues (such as other conflicting events that would impact our wedding party photo shoot). Her attention-to-detail and making sure she was familiar with the locations truly made me feel like she was going above and beyond! Fast forward on the wedding day, Erin and her team arrived on-time and worked seamlessly with the vendors and the wedding party to ensure both my husband and I can focus on each other. She knew how to guide the wedding party and our families during our photo shoot, making sure everyone looked their best! One memory comes to mind was when a bridesmaid pointed out: "Wow your photographer is willing to get her flats wet in the Portrait Gallery's water scrim so that she can get the best angle of us..." This is exactly what I mean that Erin was delivering top-notch quality service! After the wedding party, family and couple portrait photo shoot, Erin and her team worked quietly in the background making sure they were capturing us perfectly during our ceremony. We also had a tea ceremony as part of our cocktail hour and Erin did a phenomenal job photographing the ornate details of my culture. One of the next most important part of our wedding was the reception - which she took dreamy classic photographs of us, our guests, along with the finer details of the flowers, cake and the whole elegant vibe. It was all so surreal to see the photos captured so perfectly. From Erin's quick turn-around in getting our photos back (less than two months!) to her amazing and positive attitude, I am so relieved and blessed to have Erin as our wedding photographer. If you decide on Erin, you will be in good hands.

Hello! My name is Liz Seidel and I can't wait to spend time with you! I am the sole owner/photographer at Sterling Life Photography. I have been documenting weddings and people full time since the summer of 2015. I have two beautiful children that keep me busy and laughing. I love driving with no destination while listening to audible, wine, a good laugh that makes your cheeks hurt, and melting into the scene at weddings.

We are so grateful to Liz for capturing the beauty and spirit of Emily and Matt’s wedding day. Liz was able to accompany us throughout the entire day in a way that did not interfere with any of the events or aspects of the day. She has a unique ability to capture the many moments of two families coming together as one by seamlessly threading together the tenderness of friends and family helping the bride and groom getting ready, to the love and holiness of the ceremony, and finally to the exuberance and free spirited joy and celebration of the reception. Then, Liz patiently put all of it together to create distinctively individual albums for the bride and groom, for our family and for Matt's family. Liz did an amazing job and I would highly recommend her to any bride and groom.

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!
