Hello! I’m Toni Jones, and I bring a heartfelt passion for photography to every frame I capture. My journey began as an Image Consultant and Personal Branding Specialist, where I honed my skills in showcasing the best of individuals. This experience has been invaluable as I transitioned into photography, particularly in capturing the profound moments of couples’ lives. My approach is personal and intimate. I believe in creating a connection with every client, understanding their story, and reflecting that narrative through my lens. It’s not just about the photos; it’s about the experience and the memories we create during the process.

I've been shooting unique, non-traditional, very-traditional, queer, straight, weird, normal, sexy, just-plain-fun weddings for over a decade now. Don't think your wedding falls into that category? Don't be so sure. Your unique love deserves to be documented whoever that may look. If you want bad-ass photography that stands out, all while having fun doing it, we're what you've been looking for. Let's connect. We'd love to hear your love story.

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 love photographing weddings and traveling. Half the year you can find me on a road trip exploring a new area, hiking or getting coffee downtown. I've been capturing weddings since 2018 and it's been the most amazing adventure.

You just have to live and life will give you pictures. The first time I saw the photographs of Henri Cartier-Bresson, I knew photography was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life! His mantra is exactly how I approach wedding photography. I want you two as a couple to enjoy your wedding, having the best day of your lives, and amazing photographs will come from your joy.

Hey there, I’m Virge Simone and I want to capture your love story. One of my favorite photos is one of my late grandfather holding my now 19 year old daughter when she was just a few days old. The photo was taken by me and I would guess with a basic point and shoot camera so the quality is not the best, kinda blurry, the colors are washed out but I LOVE that photo. That photo signifies to be to always be present and in the moment, because that’s the last photo I was able to take of my grandfather. As a photographer, that photo tells a story, its dated, its memorable and its timeless.

Hello!

The biggest failure at the end of our lives would be trading our intimacy for our fears in light of playing it safe. This season of your lives may make you feel unwelcome and even excluded as dive into your wedding research. Listen to this: No matter where you’re from, who you pray to, what you weigh, who you voted for or who you love; who you are and who you’re becoming as individuals and as a whole are what matter to us most. We're a team of people loving, color-addicted, and moment-captured wedding photographers based in DC with over 300 weddings of experience. We've shot stories in over 20 countries and 30 states.

In such a way that cannot be explained or accounted for, we’re influencing imagery that brings numinous emotions. Tailoring each circumstance, or experience with the realization that each passerby has a life as vivid and complex as our own.

Hi there! I’m Kierston, a portrait and wedding photographer located in the Northern Neck of Virginia. I will capture happy, bright, and airy portraits that directly reflect this joyful season of life you are in right now.

Fueled by equal parts cold brew and sarcasm, I spend my days capturing the kind of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Your story, your love, is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in images you will treasure for decades to come. I believe in the in between moments and heartfelt conversations on the front porch. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

Hello! My Name is Mary Winford. I am a DC wedding photographer who loves shooting weddings in Washington DC, but I shoot other places as well. I'm always excited to explore a new area. I was born and raised in North Carolina. I now live in Fredericksburg Virginia. It was a big change considering I've lived in North Carolina all my life, but I still travel back and forth to see my family. I am happy I have many awesome pictures to look back at when I miss them. Family and sharing memories with the people I care about is so important to me. That's one of the reasons why photography is so important to me.

I believe in loving and laughing and taking full advantage of the time we've been given. I'm a smile at strangers, hold the door open, start a conversation in an elevator type of girl. But believe it or not, I'm a bit of an introvert as well. I crave solitude, naps and pizza on the regular. But hey, I'm a wife, mom of three teenagers and business owner, so solitude, naps and pizza are like staples for sanity, right? I find my peace in the mountains. I travel any chance I get. And I mean ANY chance. Hot tea gets me excited and I could live in the bathtub or shower. Oh and cheese. If you need to know something about me, know cheese.

Hello, I am Alexius. I was born and raised right here in the good ole North Carolina. I live in Raleigh now, but I was raised in a small town of "Midway" (right outside of Winston-Salem).

I am even more amazed at the friends I have made while pursuing my passion for photography and filmmaking. I can promise that I will always be your biggest cheerleader. I will guide you throughout the whole process. I want my couples to walk away with not just great pictures, but with a wonderful client experience.

Hi! I’m Alex, your local Blue Ridge baby. I’ve been chasing this Virginia light for as long as I can remember. There is something magical about the land, how the light hits the Shenandoah, the greens in the spring, and the rivers around us. I love steam rising off of coffee on a chilly morning, the sunset right after a storm, and bare feet in mud puddles. I believe every journey is enchanting, that time is fleeting, and life is a beautiful crazy mess. I am here to preserve the raw beauty of your love. I am for the venturesome, for the lovers, for the real magic that your story creates. Let me take you on an adventure!!!

My primary work consists of weddings, engagements, portraits, and pets. You'll quickly realize that I am a huge animal lover and a big chunk of my life revolves around taking care of my little home-zoo. I have an intense passion to capture classic romance with each wedding and the emotional connection with each portrait session. But to me, my job is more than just capturing photos – it is about being a part of milestone moments in the lives of others and I realize how lucky I am to be able to do so. So feel free to take a look around! Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope to have the opportunity to work with you!

I want to service couples who prioritize their home and the commitment to each other on their wedding day while having family and friends to celebrate their big day! My favorite part about wedding photography is making people feel comfortable, so you don’t have to worry bout posing awkwardly — you just worry bout enjoying your big day! I do this through my style of posing and capturing pictures, which can be described as photojournalism and illustrative with bold and warm, but true-to-life colors. I've given you little prompts on things to do so you can focus on the people and things you love not me with my giant camera.

Steve and I met in March, 1999 on Match.com. We were married on September 2, 2000 at the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon. We became a photography team in 2007. I had already been photographing weddings on my own, but someone was missing. I am not complete without Steve. My photography is the same. I love working with my husband. We can be on opposite sides of a ceremony, look at each other and just know what the other will do. Many of our couples love our height difference. I'm 5'1". Steve is 6'4". You will literally get two very different perspectives for the exact same moment.
