Alexandria, VA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $7,500

HEY THERE! MY NAME IS KLAIRE, AND I'M A FINE ART WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER BASED RIGHT OUTSIDE OF WASHINGTON, D.C. Elegantly refined details and family heirlooms make my heart pitter patter on a wedding day. I take on a select number of weddings every year to treat every couple with the utmost care as if they're old friends - I always cry happy tears on wedding days! I am eternally grateful to work with couples and capture beautiful images on their wedding day. My highest priority is to strengthen marriages with imagery that will remind them of how their unique story began.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so grateful we had Klaire shoot our wedding! She was everything we wanted in a wedding photographer and more: professional, talented, very organized, experienced, and CALM. Her presence on our wedding day was one of joy and calm, which helped us relax and enjoy the day even more. When something would throw the schedule off, Klaire was able to adapt quickly and make it all work out without any stress, which was truly a gift. She captured more beautiful shots than we could’ve asked for and shared so much valuable advice from her experience with weddings throughout our planning and the day of the wedding. We 100% recommend Klaire!

Jennifer Fern Photography

Alexandria, VA
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,300

As a wedding photographer by passion & an aerospace engineer by day, I bring a unique perspective to my photography. I am incredibly detail-oriented, hardworking, & I truly believe everyone deserves quality photos to look back on of special moments in their life. My goal is to deliver luxury, editorial images that capture the true essence of your love story. I approach each wedding with a fresh perspective, knowing that every couple is unique & deserves to have their story told in a way that is true to them. So count on me to take charge when needed & when I'm not - to keep on authentically & artfully documenting your day.

As a wedding planner, I've had the pleasure of working with a myriad of photographers, and Jenn certainly stands out. Jenn's professionalism and communication skills are top-notch, making the collaboration process seamless and stress-free. She is highly responsive, consistently keeping me in the loop, which is extremely important to the running of a smooth event. The wedding we worked on together required a high-degree of flexibility, and Jenn was not only capable of handling last-minute changes, but she did so with grace and a positive attitude. And all this before we've even discussed her work. Jenn's photos were beautiful, elevated, and did a great service to every design vendor who participated. She turned around sneak peeks quickly, and even provided the venue with some footage for them to use in their marketing. Highly recommend Jenn for any couple looking for film-quality photos delivered with positivity and professionalism.

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000

My name is Amanda, I'm a photographer and I absolutely love to connect with new people as well as learn their stories. I'm someone who would rather learn all about you, and get to know you on a deeper level. I'm originally from Cuba, I was born there, and by the age of 5, my parents and I moved to Mexico. I lived in Mexico for 7 years only to find out I was unhappy living there! In 2008, my mom, grandma, and I moved to Connecticut, and I began a whole new chapter in my life! I'm a firm believer that things happen for a reason, and everything will eventually fall into place with just a little bit of hope and optimism!

When you start wedding planning, it is so overwhelming to decide on vendors when there are so many available. But we are so happy we chose Amanda to be our wedding photographer! My husband and I had never had professional photos done, and when we had our engagement photo session, Amanda helped us become more comfortable and photographed us naturally, while also giving us suggestions for poses and actions so she could get some great shots. We saw our engagement photos and they were so beautiful, we were so excited to have her photograph our wedding! Throughout the process, Amanda was always fast to respond and answered any questions we had. She even guided us on our wedding timeline and was so helpful since she has photographed so many weddings. On the day of our wedding - she fit in with all our friends and family for the vibe of our wedding - fun, relaxed, and loving! We appreciated that she listened to everything we wanted for our wedding photos, but also made suggestions for things that she knew she could photograph amazingly! Now looking at our photographs, we are blown away by how beautiful they are and how she captured the day and us as a couple. Thank you so much to Amanda for capturing our best day ever!

Bring on all the joy, laughter, tears, letting go and holding close. I want to capture these connections, so that you can have photos to hold in your hand and remind you what it felt like the day you were married.

Congrats on your celebration of life! We would love to be on your BIG DAY and tell us more about your EXCITEMENT through our camera. If you like to see a photo of you with the perfect balance between candid and artistically directed pictures capturing the mood of the day, you are in the right direction. We truly understand each client is different and unique, we believe your SPECIAL day collection should be reflecting your personality as well. No matter the vision or style for your wedding day or an engagement , we are here to provide a deeply personal experience for our couple.

Shooting with Lucy and Janos was a really fun experience. Our pictures have a natural quality to them which is evidence of how at ease we were during the shoot. In some of our pictures, we're smiling and laughing, while others look like images pulled from an editorial spread. Lucy and Janos are skilled photographers and editors, but they also have knack for directing that can be hard to find. They have an artistic vision and are ready to bring it to life for their clients. I would highly recommend choosing Lucy and Janos for your big day!

Steve Broy Photography

Centreville, VA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $300

Growing up with a passion for skateboarding provided me with a creative view of the world around me. I've been taking pictures professionally for about 8 years and I'm inspired by the music I listen to and those that I love being creative with. I have also photographed many different subjects, scenes, and moments! There's a picture around every corner.

Steve photographed our wedding, which was pretty small by most standards. He arrived on time, prepared, and he was very easy to work with both before and during the event. His photographs turned out great, and we can definitely say he gave us a good value for what we paid. We would gladly recommend him to any of our friends for their photography work. Thanks again Steve

Til Death Media

5.0

Springfield, VA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,200

I am passionate about capturing each couples unique story and their one-of-a-kind love. We are a husband and wife team plus our best man! When Jeremiah and I got engaged and started planning our wedding, the search for a photographer & videographer was a grueling tasks. I kept saying, “If ONLY Jeremiah & En could capture our wedding,” but that was totally unfeasible be as one is the groom & the other the best man. Then the light bulb went off & Til Death Media was born!

I will forever recommend Till Death Media! Kira helped me out of a bind when my photographer backed out less than 2 weeks before my wedding. Even though TDM wasn't able to photograph my wedding on such short notice, Kira spent hours searching for and interviewing local photographers on our behalf, eventually finding someone who was both a perfect match and well within our budget. Kira helped us edit and finalize our itinerary, organize which photographs we wanted taken, and even helped us pinpoint exactly what kind of editing style we wanted done - all things that I should've had sorted out with my previous photographer, but I was unaware of due to poor communication. When she stepped in, I felt like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders and I don't think I could've been happier with our wedding or our photographer. :) I 100% recommend Kira and TDM!

Vicki is a truly gifted photographer. Her composition, lighting, and color tones are always immaculate. Her presence on a wedding day is professional, poised, and unobtrusive. Her eye for details and ensuring her subjects look their absolute best ensures every single image she delivers is worthy of framing in your home. I am absolutely thrilled at every chance we have to work together and highly, highly recommend her!

Vanessa Bennish Photography

Gaithersburg, MD
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000

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.

Rebecca Wilcher Photography

5.0

Alexandria, VA
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,100

My name is Rebecca, but some call me Becks. I'll let you decide which one to call me! I am a lifestyle and wedding photographer based out of Alexandria, VA, but I am ALWAYS looking for an excuse to travel. I'm inspired by human connections, love and friendships. I live for adventure, goofiness and optimism. When I’m not working, I can be found working out with my husband, traveling or at a grocery store/farmers market. Dark chocolate, workout clothes, ice cream, sushi and vegetables are a few of my favorite things.

We cannot recommend Rebecca enough. Aside from the absolutely stunning photos she took, she was a wonderful, positive force of energy to have around. She was also very calming especially when things got hectic with our zoom connection and instructed us to take deep breaths so as not to look tense in the photos. We never had a photoshoot done before but we instantly felt comfortable being candid with her. She knew exactly how to guide us through various poses and also listened to all our requests ex. close ups of the bouquet, of our rings, etc. It was small things like carrying my bag from location to location, making sure I was comfortable in my heels, and telling us to dab our sweat (humid August day!) that really made working with her a true pleasure. She definitely exceeded our expectations and we will never stop recommending her. Thank you, Rebecca!

I'm super outdoorsy, I love my hubby and my puppies... I believe in real connection and I think we must really like each other, because I'll be in your face all day, on your wedding day! Are you ready for it?

Erika is such an amazing, talented artist- her pictures are truly works of art! She is very responsive prior to the big day, which made my life easier as a bride. She is very easy to get along with and having her document our day was a blast! She also had a quick turnaround with her final edits! She is the best!

MFields Photography

5.0

Hyattsville, MD
  • Editorial style

After my first year of college studying music, I decided to take the business route. I worked for several Fortune 500 businesses and even some start-ups. Photography initially started as a hobby but it slowly became a passion as I developed a growing desire to serve others instead of quarterly sales goals. Studying various genres of photography allowed me to discover wedding & portrait photography - and the rest is history! From Washington DC to your destination event, my specialties include weddings, engagement sessions, and portrait photography.

Prior to finding out about MFields Photography, I was very frustrated with the process of booking a wedding photographer. So much so that by chance I was venting to my dental hygienist about my lackluster experience of finding a wedding photographer to capture one of the most beautiful moments of my life. Luckily she understood my dilemma since she was a newlywed. She told me all about MFields Photography and how great he was to work with. After my appointment she showed me her wedding pictures and I was SOLD. I called Myron the next day and he been making my role as a bride easy ever since. Myron is a valuable resource to have on your wedding team. Not only is he a great photographer, but he is well respected in his field. He also connected us to other reputable wedding professionals that helped us bring the magic for our wedding day. We are beyond grateful.

Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

I’ve been lucky enough to have my work published by A Practical Wedding, The New York Times, GLAMOUR, People Magazine and many other fabulous outlets. I'm a stereotypical Capricorn that loves drag shows, campy horror films, every dog I meet, and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

He is super responsive to all messages and never once left us hanging. On the day of the wedding he was a blast to have around and made everyone relaxed and always laughing. We got so many compliments from our wedding party and guests about how hilarious he is! How he managed to wrangle everyone for all the family photos is a mystery to me. We are awkward and not always “picture people” and all of the pictures we received are stunning! He truly makes you feel that your wedding is his favorite.

With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

She never wavered, and made everything seem like it was her plan in the first place!

What a masterful job she did capturing those precious smiles and special moments that are now our beloved memories! The thing about Kylie, though, is her photography doesn’t ever come across as a “job;” it is clearly her passion! We have since used Kylie on a variety of other family photo opportunities, and she always arrives with such a calm; with her quiet, happy smile; and then she “does her thing” with confidence! Additionally, in a very timely manner, opening her gallery of pictures brings such JOY--looking through all the beautiful pictures she took! What talent she has!

Desiree & Raul here! We are a fun-loving adorkable couple who married in 2016 and shortly thereafter realized we like hanging out with each other, we love capturing love in the form of photos, and we adore making someone's magical day as perfect as it can be. With 10 years of expertise we work hard to provide nothing short of the experience we would have wanted for ourselves. We're foodies, film lovers, animal lovers (particularly fond of dogs & Alpaca), into hikes & meeting awesome new people!

Awarded Best of Zola
Ashley and I cannot stop finding great things to say about Desiree and Raul. They are friendly, professional, and positive people. This, however, is just the start! They are both visionaries with photography! Just check their portfolio and you will see! For anyone that is camera shy, they will make you feel right at home. If you think you're ugly, they will make you feel beautiful. Since the beginning while working with them on our engagement shoot - I thought of them as friends instead of working professionals. It happened naturally. After the engagement shoot, I was so happy that we would be working with them for our wedding because I knew that the pictures were going to be spectacular. They will capture moments that will make you say "Wow, I didn't realize that happen" or have you saying " wow I look good". Seriously, wedding photos are important. They are one of the most important vendors you can have. It's not something to cheap out on or trust with just anyone. I don't usually write reviews or wax eloquently like this about anything. However, I put my full vote of confidence behind them and I would recommend them to anyone. They are a team of fantastic photographers that will make your day one that will never be a distant memory because the photos they will take will make it incredibly easy for you to re-live.

Wanting to make sure I documented every little thing he did so I could remember years after was important to me. That turned into what is Holly Johnston Photography today. My passion is to document all of the moments through out your day so you can remember them years after, when you look back at your photos. I want you to be transported back to that day and remember all of the emotions and love.

I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts! (But I mean who isnt! I just cant help it!) FUN FACT: I speak switzerdütsch, aka a German slang. My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

This review is long overdue. One year ago today, Ashley photographed my intimate family wedding. Literally everyone at my wedding loved her. My brother is also a professional photographer (but a jinx for weddings) and complimented her sooo many times. She was so low-key throughout the event, blending right in throughout the day. She was so sweet and friendly, she basically felt like was part of the family that day. She got beautiful portraits of me and my husband, portraits with our families, then so many great candids throughout the day - exactly what we wanted. She definitely knows what she's doing with the couple portraits too - she gave us directions that sounded so silly at the time, but omg the pictures came out amazing. Cannot thank her enough, and cannot tell you enough to BOOK HER NOW!

A lifetime of memories can occur in a single day. After months, perhaps even years of planning, you deserve to remember your "best day yet" through vibrant and meaningful portraiture. That's what we want for you: A positive, "we totally nailed it," "I've gotta show everyone," photographic experience from start to finish!

Rachel’s entire process from beginning to end was so easy and she was so fun to talk to! Her ideas were fresh, and she was able to capture the most intimate details in every photo. I can’t speak enough on her, and I’ve recommended her to every family member I know. It was honestly the easiest part of the entire wedding and she did such an amazing job at taking the stress of that off of us.

I’m Sarah, wedding + elopement photographer documenting true and heartfelt moments wherever your little heart desires. My husband, Ryan is my adventure-loving second photographer and ordained officiant (yep, he’ll marry you!). We are city-dwelling nature lovers who strongly believe in having a good time. We call Pennsylvania home but travel all over to photograph couples in love. When not behind the camera or working on the computer, we enjoy cocktails, coffee, cats, and hiking with our toddler, Brooklyn.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sarah is a bubbly person in the truest form and she brought the energy to my partner and me on our wedding day. We’re both pretty self conscious by nature, and she brought us out of our shells (not an easy task). Sarah made me feel very confident and at ease during my bridal portraits which speaks volumes as I’m usually a nervous wreck in front of a camera but those feelings melted away with her! She makes it fun, lighthearted, and still honors the deepness in the emotions of the day. She has a special attention to detail and ensured that we got all of the photos and groupings we wanted, as well as shots of the moments that mattered most to us. Love that she gives you a little sneak peek into your photos while you await the rest too, as I know not all photographers do that, so it’s special that she understands how hard the wait can be and alleviates it that way! I’ll absolutely be asking her for family photo portraits in the near future, she was a dream to spend time with

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 and his team were incredible to work with. He came highly recommended from a friend of ours who got married a few years ago and we were really pleased to be introduced. After seeing his work, we were sure we wanted to work with him. The wedding was in San Francisco and it was a real pleasure to have Isaac there on our day, and the photos look amazing. There are so many fun and gorgeous moments captured, we are very thankful for the skilled photos. The lighting is phenomenal.
