Hi, I’m Daniel! I am a wedding photographer based in Winchester, VA. I love capturing both the timeless, must-have shots and the real, unscripted moments that make your day unique. My style blends traditional photography with a creative eye for detail and emotion. Whether it’s a quiet look between you and your partner or the way light filters through during golden hour, I aim to tell your story in a way that feels both honest and artful. Weddings move fast, but I want your photos to slow things down and bring you right back to how it all felt.

Brittany was a pleasure to work with. My husband and I have never gotten pictures taken together and she made it easy, fun, and seamless. I don’t typically love pictures of myself and I absolutely loved how they turned out. She facilitated the family pictures so well and made the process painless. I would highly recommend booking her!

I cannot rave about Becky more! We were extremely pleased with our engagement session and I didn't think I could be more impressed... until we got to the wedding day. Becky was amazing making sure to capture all of the details of the day from the start. She was the sole photographer, but she somehow managed to capture so many moments. My husband and I both made comments when we were going through the photos that we weren't sure how she managed to get all the shots she did, it was like she was in two places as once! Highly recommend Becky, and I hope to be able to work with her in the future for all of our family memories!

Awarded Best of Zola
MEGAN WAS AMAZING!!!! We cannot sing the praises of her and her team enough. Her photos are incredible -- we literally cannot stop looking at them, and we are so grateful we selected her for the memories that we will frame on the wall and review for years to come. But even more than her amazing photography was how wonderful she is to work with! From our first Zoom call, she was immediately just so much fun to talk to. Something to think about: Your photographer follows you around your entire wedding day, so you need someone you feel comfortable with! Megan immediately put us at ease. We had a blast with her on the engagement photoshoot (we went to waterfall at sunrise!) and we had a blast planning out all our wedding shots with her. At the wedding itself, her team was so professional and endlessly kind. They never made the wedding feel awkward or had to "stop the action" for a shot. She delivered an AMAZING gallery for us in a timely manner with the most beautiful photos we've ever had taken in our lives. She captured all the special moments and managed all our family dynamics. We would book Megan again 100000 times. Also, as a queer couple, she was so affirming and made us feel so comfortable. We love you Megan 3 Can't wait to book a newborn shoot one day ;)

Hi, I’m Melinda! I’m a wedding and portrait photographer serving couples throughout Washington, DC, Virginia, Maryland, and beyond. My approach is romantic, joyful, and true to you, blending beautiful portraits with the genuine moments that make your story yours. I love capturing everything from thoughtfully planned details to quiet glances, happy tears, and laughter with the people you love most. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me with my family, walking my Vizsla, Maverick, golfing, traveling, or enjoying a cozy night at home. 🤍

Melinda photographed our engagement shoot. I chose Melinda because I was immediately drawn to her style of photography. She is patient, kind, and incredibly professional. She guided my now-husband and me through each pose and made sure we always felt comfortable. My husband is usually the most awkward person, especially around strangers, but he felt completely at ease in front of the camera thanks to Melinda. She created such a relaxed, effortless atmosphere that we almost forgot we were being photographed, so every kiss and smile felt genuine and natural. Thank you so much Melinda!

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

On the big day, she helped us feel at ease in front of the camera and captured who we are for both the formal shots as well as the more real candid moments. She is incredibly kind, knowledgable about her craft, and professional. She delivered photos in a timely manner and we even got a few sneak peeks a few days after the wedding.

Being able to capture that moment- and then deliver it to the couple to keep forever- it’s truly the best. I’m here to capture so much more than just memories. I’m here to capture feeling. .

The photos I produce allow you to hold those feelings in your hand, and keep them safe for eternity.

Awarded Best of Zola
I mean WOW. We have gotten more compliments on our wedding photos than any other vendor or part of our wedding. We explained our vision to her (wildflower-themed, fun, colorful, candid vibes) and she blew away our expectations. From the very beginning, Victoria was a dream to work with. She was kind, hilarious, willing to work with our budget, and a very good communicator. I explained that my husband and I didn't really like to take photos so we would likely get burnt out quickly, and she was incredible at working in creative ways to still get beautiful photos but maximize our time actually being present and enjoying the time with our guests. She even found a field of flowers for us to take photos in without us even asking...it was something out of a dream!! Also, we had a very active first dance with lots of flips and tricks and the photos are PERFECT. She is hands down the best photographer I've ever seen for candids, action shots, and all the silly photos we could take. Her website and gallery (post-wedding) is very easy to access. Overall, we had an absolute BLAST with Victoria, and seriously made the best decision of our wedding planning process by booking her as our photographer. Like everyone tells you, do not skimp on your budget in this area. Plus, she is reasonably priced for the insane level of artistry she brings with her camera. Truly cannot recommend her enough!!!

Virginia wedding photographer with a serious obsession with Netflix, true crime podcasts and YA fantasy novels. Telling the stories of two best friends in love with laughter, joy, and some really awesome dance parties.

We found Sara after requesting vendor recommendations from several venues we were considering, and she was listed on multiple lists - which felt like a great sign. When I checked out her Instagram, I immediately loved her style: vibrant, comfortable, classic, timeless, and incredibly detail oriented. I noticed she was going on maternity leave and wasn’t sure if our date would work with her schedule, so I felt incredibly fortunate when it did. From our very first phone call, Sara was authentic, fun, and a true ray of sunshine. What stood out most was how she checked in on me and our wedding planning as a whole (not just the photography side) which immediately showed how much she genuinely cared about me and our day. She was also so generous with vendor recommendations, including the planner who ultimately helped bring our entire vision to life. Leading up to the wedding, Sara was responsive and worked closely with my planner, which meant I never once worried about anything photography related. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond, capturing everything we could have hoped for, from flat lays and getting ready moments to the details of our tablescapes, décor, and even open dancing - all while being a new mom! She captured the details of our day with such efficiency and intention that I was able to truly live in the moment and spend time with our guests, which was incredibly important to me and speaks volumes about her experience. Her sneak peeks were delivered unbelievably fast, and our full gallery came just as quickly... both far sooner than expected while still done so beautifully and thoroughly. Sara is truly a gem, both as a person and as a photographer. We are endlessly grateful for her and cannot recommend her highly enough. Hire Sara for any photography needs, you will be so glad you did!

Let's skip the business part and jump in, heads first, into being best friends?! I love connecting with people who are in love and value the essence of relationships, those big and small moments and everything in between. To live in the moment is my motto, allowing myself to be true to my feelings and always see the bright side of every experience. I've been photographing for 3 years and making friends along the way, creating memories that will withstand the test of time with a touch of art. Let's connect and make beautiful memories!?

Lavender Sage Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From our very first interaction, Laura & Alex felt like old friends - their fun, friendly communication style put us at ease and made the whole process so enjoyable from our engagement session to throughout the stress of the wedding day. In the bridal suite, Laura even became my sense of comfort. Their top-tier work captured all the classic, beautiful, and heartfelt moments of our special day. The details we didn’t even think of, they were there to make sure they were captured in the most artistic way. They hyped us up and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, ensuring to capture the love we share. It truly felt like they were part of our wedding celebration, not just vendors. I even consider them friends now! We are thrilled with the stunning photos that will allow us to relive our wedding day for years to come.

I have been doing photography/weddings for the last 10 years or so. I am a mama of 2 and a wife myself. I may be a professional, but I am just like You, a person, and I strive to make you feel as comfortable as possible working with me!

K.S. Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, their communication was timely, professional, and extremely patient as we navigated the planning process. On the day of our wedding, Katie and her second photographer were a pleasure to have around - they made the entire experience fun and relaxed, while paying close attention to capturing all the special moments exactly as we had envisioned. The final photos are absolutely stunning - warm, inviting, and beautifully composed. We are thrilled with the value and quality of their work, and can't wait to continue enjoying these cherished memories for years to come. Highly recommend K.S. Photography!
