DuHon Photography

Washington, DC
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000

Growing up in rural Virginia my intro to photography came to me at 14 while breaking into abandoned houses with friends to take photos that can only be describe in retrospection as “experimental”. Fast forward a handful of years and I found myself going 'legit' and holding a BFA in photography, later finding yet more perspective and cutting my teeth shooting society events in NYC. Having now spent more years of my life taking photos than not, it’s safe to say that I’m all in.

When all of our wedding plans fell through because of COVID-19, we opted for a socially-distant micro wedding at a park. We somehow made it happen with just over 48hrs to plan! We knew we wanted a photographer to help us capture our special day, even if it didn't have all the bells and whistles, and were so lucky to have found Cassidy on such short notice. He was such a pleasure to work with. He was incredibly flexible (we changed our venue the night before the wedding) and very communicative. To top it off, our photos turned out so beautiful and made our adhoc wedding seem a bit more romantic and put together. He captured laughter and love! We loved his work and will recommend him to friends.

I have the coolest job in the world: I create emotional time capsules for my couples (and hopefully you too). That way, you get to be fully present on your wedding day and you get to relive that day over and over again with the same intensity, joy and love. My not-so-secret sauce is this: I get to know you. I find out what makes you and your lover tick, and then, I craft a visual story that's reflective of you. My utmost goal is to create joyful imagery for folks who want things documented exactly as they felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
There simply are not enough good things to say about Maggie and her ability to capture our love! We wanted to shoot somewhere a bit untraditional, and needed someone with a detailed eye to capture the beauty of the venue while still allowing us to be the center of the show! Maggie communicated with us constantly and helped us both feel comfortable throughout the shoot. Her timeline for editing was reasonable and well worth every dollar. We feel so lucky to have been able to work with her to capture memories that will last us a lifetime.

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!

MFields Photography

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.

Some of the best stories in the world were told without words. I am a D&D, gaming, and SQL nerd, I have a newfound love of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and I am a proud plant mom. Never been married before?

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.

We had an elopement at San Francisco City Hall and hired Love Knot Photography to take care of the photos and our social media videos. It was really great to work with someone so talented with a camera. My wife gets nervous when taking pictures and Isaac had a great personality and calm approach that really helped her enjoy the process. I think the photos of candids at the ceremony are so beautifully crafted it really shows how special of a moment it was for us.

She takes the time to pick the best photos and edits them beautifully! They are not overly edited by any means, and have I mentioned, that they are STUNNING! she goes above and beyond, for example, she even took the time to edit realistic water into the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in the background of some of our photos because it was empty on the day we took pictures. All of our friends and family always mention how beautiful our photographs taken by Melanie are!

Alex is a phenomenal photographer. We found him by luck online, and my husband and I couldn’t be happier with our experience. Planning the details of a wedding can get very stressful. Alex did various check ups throughout the months and weeks leading up to the wedding, whether that be a zoom call, phone call, or text. This helped us stay on track with planning. On top of that, his questionnaire was very thorough and detailed. He really got to know my husband and I, and with the questionnaire he was able to capture what we wanted. Our wedding day did not go exactly as planned. It was a bit chaotic, and we were a little behind on our timeline. Alex was able to adapt and be flexible, but made sure to keep us on schedule. He went above and beyond with his customer service, and if my husband and I were to pick one of our vendors we were happiest with, Alex would be it. His photos and videos were well received by all our family and we are grateful that we have those physical memories to cherish.

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me start off by saying I am pretty shy and am usually not the most photogenic gal out there. You can probably imagine how anxious I was going into our wedding planning - I was pretty worried about my awkwardness in front of a camera and the impact that would have on our wedding photos. But then I met LaDonna, and that all changed! She was so nice and professional in her approach and she really took the time to help me find my confidence in front of a camera. She was really patient and encouraging and was really great at giving me some direction early on at the beginning in teaching me how to look natural; by the time it came to our real sessions, I found I was hardly even thinking about my insecurities and instead found I was just living in the moment with my husband-to-be!

Hi! I'm Carly. ​ I am a Northern Virginia based photographer who combines film and digital photography to create romantic and artistic images that will still be loved in 30 years. As a photographer and a girl who has been a bride herself, I know how important it is to hire someone you trust to document your wedding day. It's more than just an 8 hour day. It's personal. It's catching the in between moments and freezing them in photos...like his reaction when he sees you in your dress for the first time. If you are looking for a wedding photography experience that is full of value and attention to detail, you are in the right place!

My now husband and I used Jules for our wedding and could not have been happier! We are both awkward people when it comes to having our pictures taken but Jules made our engagement photos and wedding day so much fun!! Even with a tight timeline, Jules made the most of it and always asked if we would like anything else. The whole experience from the phone calls planning to the day itself was so easy and enjoyable.

From the first Zoom call we had with Rachel, we could tell she was our kind of person. She was very knowledgeable and had great advice leading up to the wedding. We also loved the engagement shoot we did with her, as it gave us the chance to get to know her a bit in person and get comfortable so that there was no awkwardness on the day-of. Rachel embodies the perfect balance between professionalism and personable. She’s goofy and funny yet fully in charge and assertive. Her personality meshed so well with ours and it really showed in the pictures. She captured the candid special moments beautifully and also gave great direction for the posed formals. She did an outstanding job wrangling my massive & hectic family! We were so happy with how the photos turned out - it’s been challenging to pick favorites to print because they’re all great!! I can’t say enough good things about Rachel (and her assistants)! If you’re on the fence about booking her or worried about the cost, I can say she’s 100% worth it!!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were immediately drawn to Rachel Stenger's photography style and tone. We loved her slightly moody yet crisp vibe. It was evident that she was able to capture the true energy of the people she photographed and that's a special skill. We immediately contacted her to capture our wedding that was scheduled for June 2020. As we got closer to the date and the likelihood of the wedding needing to evolve was growing, Rachel was accessible, supportive, and understanding. She was able to capture our small intimate ceremony on our original date and it was beautiful. We were so happy with her work and her personable energy that we asked her to capture our wedding celebration that happened a year later. Rachel and Zeb, another photographer that she works with, were such a delight while they captured our June 2021 wedding. It was effortless, it felt like they were our friends attending the wedding who happened to be taking photos. They captured all the lovely candid and quirky moments while also capturing the magical staged shots. We highly recommend working with Rachel Stenger, her work is a perfect blend of artistic and realistic. Rachel and Zeb captured moments that will continue to bring a smile to our faces as the years go by. Thank you!

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

Our wedding day was made special by so many vendors, but Wendy Hickok Photography pushed our wedding above and beyond our expectations. We used Wendy for both our engagement photos and our wedding photos, and in each case she was incredibly flexible and her work was amazing. She allowed us to postpone our engagement photos until the cherry blossoms were in full bloom in Washington, DC, which is very hard to plan for! She braved frigid temperatures with us that day, but our engagement photos turned out amazing! To plan for our wedding photos, she came to our vineyard venue a couple of weeks before the wedding to make sure she knew what we wanted in our pictures, and made sure to fully execute that dream the day of our wedding. To this day, I still get compliments on our wedding and engagement photos as they turned out beautifully. Without hesitation, I give Wendy Hickok Photography 5 stars, and I imagine we will be using her services for photographing other life events in the future.

My approach is to capture emotion and as much candid interaction and love as possible on your big day while incorporating romantic and fun poses in between.

Yvette arrived early at the location without being asked to scope out spots for cute pictures, she was very kind, fun, and easy to work with.

I began my photography career over 15 years ago as a photographer for a Natural History Museum. There I learned to be versatile and to shoot anything from galleries, portraits, events to fossils and fieldwork. Just like the museum, weddings also call for a versatile photographer to catch great details, ceremony and reception spaces, portraits and events. But with my wedding photography, I push for more. Inspired by photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, I follow the light and seek decisive moments—emotion and reactions.

We were looking for simple but beautiful photos with a natural feeling, not overly edited. Liz was great to work with. We were new to the area when we started planning our wedding and she helped us choose locations for photos that went with the vibe of our wedding. She got so many great shots of our friends and family at the reception. When we got our pics back I was so impressed and pleased with them. There were almost too many great ones to choose from!

And I don't cut any corners. The result? Timeless and elegant images full of natural light, dreamy colors, and beautiful textures. And forever keepsakes that remind you of this beautiful day.

When it comes to professionalism, punctuality, effectiveness, a keen eye, and top-tier performance, Hana is your girl! She is sweet, genuine, and an exceptional photographer. My clients absolutely love her. I would definitely recommend her for all of your photography needs!!!

It is important to find someone whose work you LOVE — but I also believe that it is just as important to find someone who will bring out the best of who you are within those photos. My favorite quote from Annie Leibovitz is “a thing that you see in my pictures is that I was not afraid to fall in love with these people.” This resonates with every aspect of what I believe in. I find it important to get to know you, find out who you are and what you both are to each other. Photography is my passion — I will never give you anything but my all.

It's evident that she is passionate about their craft and committed to providing a comprehensive visual narrative of the entire wedding. Communication with Lucia was smooth and easy throughout the entire process. She was receptive to our ideas, offered valuable insights, and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera.

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer, I’ll save you some time and introduce you to Heather! From day 1, Heather made us feel comfortable and at home, something we were so impressed with. During our engagement photoshoot, she provided us fun little games to get in the groove and captured special moments that we couldn’t have dreamed of. We were so excited to show off her work to family and even more excited for her vision on our wedding day. Leading up to then, she exceptionally communicated to us logistics and shot planning. She was very flexible and scheduled several meetings to really flush out our desired photos. Heather provided unique guidance that made preparation easy, especially with coordinating with our wedding planner. On our wedding day, we worked with Heather and Sihan, her second photographer. We also worked with Alex Yuan and Ben for videography. The whole team was a joy to be with, naturally guiding us and capturing candid moments we shared with our bridal party. Because of all the planning, the bridal party shots and family shots went very smoothly. Most importantly, we were blown away with our final photos. We were amazed by Heather’s dedication to her clients, providing us with so many perfectly crafted pictures. She also remained patient for months after the wedding, working with us to get our wedding album details in place. We could not be happier with the moments she captured on her camera, photos that we love to share with family and friends. Alex did a great job with video as well, even providing us with a trailer video while he edited the main video. We loved the cinematic take on our wedding day, painting a picture of both the intimate moments at the start of the day to the fun times in the evening. We would 100% recommend Heather and team for your engagement and wedding. Speaking from experience, they will seamlessly work with you to capture your special day and help share those memories for years to come!

So there’s no “I” in team right?! While Captured Couture is the product of years of hard work that I built from the ground up. I have an amazing team because sometimes takes more than just me. For larger events or on occasions when I am already booked one of my team members will gladly assist with your event. We’ve covered hundreds of weddings together, and have refined our editing style and way of shooting to be completely consistent. You won’t be able to tell the difference. Pinky promise! No matter where you’re planning from when it clicks, it clicks.

I have to say that Jennifer and her assistant will forever be our Wedding Day Heroes. They arrived on time, they were professional from start to finish, and so kind to me and my family. I'm pretty sure they overheard my wedding day meltdown (I hope not) but they kept on pushing and made the whole day feel special. We didn't have a wedding party and I totally forgot about bustling my gown so Jennifer and her assistant got down on their hands and knees in the blistering heat in the Garden of my ceremony site and bustled my 15 button bustle. #weddinddayheros! At the reception they sat amongst our friends and family and fit right in. It was awesome. Their presence was so seamless, they are so genuine. If you feel like you might need a wedding day hero Jennifer and Captured Couture is definitely the way to go. She was able to provide us with a site with specific pictures of our choosing to share with out guest via a secure link. Our pictures came out beautifully. The album and metal prints we also gorgeous. Great quality. ENGAGEMENT SESSION/INITIAL MEETING REVIEW Jennifer is amazing. My partner and I discovered Captured Couture by looking for photographers who had done wedding at our venue (The Whitney-Detroit) and we couldn't be more excited to have Jennifer capture our wedding day. Jennifer is the best and I can't stress that enough. WE are having a small/intimate wedding and she came prepared with different packages to offer us based on what we asked for and our budget. We saw some of her work at our first meeting and her work was really good-a lot better than other work we'd seen from other photographers. My fiance, who is usually a hard sell, was sold on having Jennifer as our wedding photographer and so was I. During the next few months we worked with Jennifer to schedule our engagement session. We are very busy, and the weather was not working with us but luckily Jennifer was very accommodating. Our engagement shoot went off without a hitch. My partner and I are kind of camera shy but Jennifer made us feel like naturals and our pictures came out great. Before we left the shoot she showed us one of the pictures and we were in amazed at how incredible the picture looked. Jennifer is the BOMB.COM

Not only did she deliver exactly what we were looking for, but she took the time to really understand our order of service and was so respectful and mindful of our faith and the space we were in.
