Maddy Williams Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Serves Braddock Heights, MD

Hi I'm Maddy! I’m a Virginia native whose love of her camera took her on an adventure into entrepreneurship. I accidentally stumbled into wedding photography thanks to some family friends, and ended up leaving my career as a consultant to pursue my passion. I’m not afraid to admit that I’m a perfectionist and a little bit Type A, but take pride in how that makes me into a great wedding photographer. I thrive in fast-paced environments and love the energy of a wedding day that keeps me on my toes. My attention to detail allows me to go above and beyond when it comes to helping you prepare and capturing your wedding day.

Maddy was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding photography needs. From day one, Maddy was incredibly responsive, organized, and professional. She provided invaluable guidance on timelines and vendor recommendations that perfectly aligned with what we were looking for. During our engagement session, Maddy immediately made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and even stayed longer than planned to capture the best light. On our wedding day, Maddy expertly navigated timeline modifications so we still got all the photos we wanted. We had a lengthy list of family and detail shots that were important to us, and Maddy made sure each item was captured beautifully. We couldn't be more thrilled with our engagement and wedding photos. The beauty of Maddy's art speaks for itself - she has a real knack for capturing light, color, and raw emotion. This, plus her professionalism, preparedness, and responsiveness set Maddy apart as an incredible photographer to work with throughout the entire wedding planning journey. I could not recommend her more highly!

Tanya and the Aspire Beautiful team were so incredible!! As a bride, I was not local to my venue or to Tanya's location, and she took time out of her own vacation for my hair/makeup trial, which she made super fun and easy. She was super prompt communicating (fastest out of all our vendors!) and was so kind and high-energy to work with. On my wedding day her team actually got all of our bridesmaids, moms, and me done with both hair and makeup AHEAD of schedule, everyone looked incredible, and all of our looks lasted all day despite the heat. You could also tell that she and her team got along super well with each other, which was really fun and added energy to our morning! If I ever have another event where I need to look glam I'm 100% considering Tanya and the Aspire Beautiful team; I can't recommend them enough!

The quality of their work is unmatched - Marah has a true gift, and I don't think we could have imagined working with anyone else.

  • Serves Braddock Heights, MD

Hi all the lovers! My name is Huiying, people call me Charlotte as well! I'm originally from China and have been in the states for over 9 years now! I love love, enjoy experiencing the emotions and moments, whether they’re small or big. I’m also a people person and love to pass on my positive energy, so being able to celebrate every unique couple’s love story fulfills me in a way no other jobs could!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I went back and forth on whether or not we wanted to include videography for our wedding. Would our professional pictures be enough to capture the memories? Will stories of the day told by friends and family help to jog our memories when we have kids one day? The answer is so simple now, HIRE A VIDEOGRAPHER and make SURE it is Le Moment Capturer. The minute I called Charlotte to talk about options, her positive, knowledgeable and excited demeanor sealed the deal for us. When I finally met her, it was like meeting up with a friend I knew for years. She and her Team made us feel comfortable, calm and so happy. We receive compliments on our wedding teaser and our wedding video, daily. We also opted to buy the raw footage from her, which is a little extra, but so worth it. We've been married for a year now and I was able to watch the Best Man speech last night in full (with a box of tissues of course). We are so happy we did this and so happy we chose Charlotte and Le Moment Capturer to create this lifelong memory for us and our family. In fact, we loved the video so much, we asked her to come capture a very special moment in our lives. We wanted to tell our parents that we were pregnant, one year after we were married, but we wanted to surprise them and we wanted their reaction captured on video. What she compiled and how she compiled it was beyond what we could have asked for. Charlotte is up for any challenge and I promise you, she will exceed every expectation.

Before I started this film business, I worked as a Wedding Photographer for several years. Once I learned that I could shoot films using the same still cameras, I was hooked. My approach as a videographer has been much the same - be in the right place to capture authentic moments of fun and emotion, but don't try to force them. Our films are a blend of these moments with beautiful imagery that encapsulate your individual wedding celebration.

Draped in White is THE best video brand we have ever worked with. From a photographer's and past bride's perspective, I just can't recommend them enough. They are extremely professional, yet personable. And to say they are incredibly talented does not even begin to describe the quality of work they provide. They are by far the best in the market in my opinion.

On the day itself, everything went *incredibly* smoothly, and we were able to relax and enjoy the company of our guests, dance, eat and drink, and simply have a wonderful time -- because Stacy knew all the vendors and handled everything and anything that might have otherwise come our way. We loved working with her!

Our films are classic. No filters or vintage film styles that quickly date your video. You’ll be watching this for the rest of your life so we want to make sure it stands the test of time. Our artistic approach lies in finding the authentic moments, in between snapshots, where you’re swept up in excitement and emotion. We think of our films as moving family portraits. We offer affordable aerial drone, 4K, multi-day coverage & more from $4980.

I've been a wedding planner in NYC for over 8 years and NST Pictures have been my go-to videog team since the day we connected! I even hired them for my own wedding back in 2016. They're just really great to work with, the process is always very smooth and on the wedding day you won't have those crazy lights and giant cameras in your face, you won't even know they are there, which is the true beauty of working with them. They coordinate and work alongside your photography team and you get to just live in the moment, and soak up every second of fun on your wedding day all while not being posed or interrupted to re-do something. Then when the final video edits are being made and you have that final product you can also really appreciate why you chose to hire a videographer. They capture live moments in action that you just can't get with still photography. Knowing what I know now I would ensure to hire NST Pictures for my wedding day over and over again, they're truly amazing!

Awarded Best of Zola
As a photography studio we work with a lot of videography companies and to be honest, they usually don't leave much of an impression on us. We are both there to do a similar job so as long as we both respect each other, we are all good to go. Things are different when we work with Jill and her crew. She makes the day a lot of fun and her professionalism when it comes to working together is second to none. Her smile is contagious and her passion for the art is apparent to everyone. We usually don't view many videos from the weddings we capture but we make a point to watch Jill's and we love seeing her perspective of the day. Yes, we were there too but she captures so many little moments that we even sometimes miss. JBray Media is one of three videography companies we recommend and couldn't give her higher praise.

My team of DJs and I truly appreciate it. A little background on who I am and what sets Frederick DJs apart from the rest. Starting as a DJ as a kid, yes, a kid of only 14! I took a huge interest in the entertainment industry. It started a little before then, but that’s when I got into DJing. I fell in love with playing music for others while working at a roller-skating rink. (Wisconsin Sk8 University) I later moved on from the roller rink where I became a DJ assistant for a solo DJ who specialized in weddings. Let’s just day that gave me a whole new love for the job.

We recently had Robert DJ our June wedding. Pros were that he was on time and friendly. He handled little hiccups smoothly and w/o complaint. Prices are reasonable and he offers a lot of services, like ceremony recordings and fun add-ons. He really can be a one-stop shop for a lot of wedding entertainment. While I think he is a good all-purpose DJ, I'm not sure that he was the right fit for us in the end. Specifically our two biggest concerns were that 1) he didn't consistently use the language we had asked him to use to address guests and 2) communication leading up to the wedding was less organized than I would have preferred. In our case, we really prioritized communicating with vendors about our desire for an affirming, somewhat non-traditional wedding. From the onset when we hired vendors, we asked about comfort and experience working with a diverse range of guests and requested that vendors be attentive to using inclusive language, especially as it relates to including LGBTQ folks. In the case of DJ services, we requested he not use gendered language like "ladies and gentlemen" due to the gender diversity of our guests. We also had an integrated wedding party so we weren't using some of the traditional wedding party language. I get that this is a specific and maybe unusual request, so we wanted to be really sure our vendors were okay with it, and Robert was super friendly and agreeable when we talked about it. I think Robert's intentions were really good here -- he expressed a lot of desire to make sure he got this right and willingness to be careful. Maybe those requests were made too long ago though, because when we got to the day of, we had a lot of issues here. Our coordinator had to talk to him about using less gendered language, which did not seem to result in much improvement (there was definitely effort...at one point he said "ladies and....guests....esteemed guests" but then he went right back to "ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls"), and it was really frustrating for both us and her. He also told us we'd have a ceremony recording the day after. There was really no rush, but that was what he told us would happen. Instead, we got the recording a week later than he had originally stated, and we were not told it would be delayed until I asked twice. I think it's also worth noting that the ceremony recording did not include the music for procession and recession. (This is on us, we should have confirmed that would be included, but it was disappointing) Communication tended to be a little last-minute and unscheduled -- e.g., spontaneous phone calls rather than putting something on the calendar. Followups were sometimes required. He also texted me (bride) the morning of asking if he could bring an assistant and requesting we add a meal for that additional person. Not a big deal, but I do wish he would have communicated in advance/not while we were all trying to get ready. Otherwise, I thought/heard feedback that some of the music transitions were a bit awkward, but not to an extent that was too disruptive. None of these are big issues, but the multitude of small communication inconveniences and frustrations did add up to where I would not feel comfortable recommending Frederick DJs to a friend. Robert is nice, but I'm not sure he was the right call for our needs. He might be a better fit for someone else, particularly if you are looking to include a number of add-ons and want to use one, reasonably-priced company
