They are the sweetest folks to work with. We had always wanted a video package but could not find an affordable option. Billy and Miss Cheryl did BOTH!

We hired Brea after seeing her in action at a friend's wedding, who came away with some incredible photos and highly recommended her to us. We are so glad that we "stole" her for our wedding! Can not speak highly enough of Brea. She is an amazing photographer with a great eye and produced beautiful shots that we will cherish forever. We used her for both our engagement and wedding photos and we are absolutely in love with the wedding album she created for us. She has a great attention to detail without feeling pushy or invasive in the process which is something I really liked.

Natasha Lamalle Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Charlestown, MD

The best way to tell honest stories is through keen observation. How do I know? Because I spent 15 years as a journalist before becoming a wedding photographer. By paying attention to the ways you interact with your loved ones, I capture the in-between moments that will, one day, be significant. And using a trained eye and subtle approach, I do so unobtrusively.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I were searching for a photographer who could capture our wedding as it really was, from the intimate moments to the wild dance floor, and Natasha's documentary-style fit our needs exactly! She listened carefully to what we wanted - minimal posed pictures, non-traditional "first look", lots of candids, etc - and she more than delivered. We had 130 guest count and Natasha covered basically every inch of our wedding day, no need or want for a second shooter. She was everywhere and so stealthy that we didn't realize she was so close to us the whole night until we got our pictures back. Our ceremony was outside and dinner/dancing were inside, and regardless of the lighting, the pictures turned out perfectly, she was even able to capture non-blurry pictures of guests jamming on a packed dance floor! She was a pleasure to work with, the instructions of her process were easy to follow from start to finish, and had a lot of examples to look through which gave us a good idea of what we were getting. We especially appreciated that she sent us a few pictures the morning after our wedding as a sneak peek, very nice touch. She's genuinely kind and calm which helped us remain present during our wedding day. Everyone who has seen our photos are amazed by the quality and we are too. We're thrilled we picked Natasha and highly recommend her!

Vintage film-inspired family, boudoir, & wedding photography for passionate, creative people. Located in Frederick, Maryland, available worldwide. Hi, I'm Leigh Anne! As a kid, I never imagined myself as a photographer. I always wanted to be a teacher, but I loved looking through my parents' shoeboxes full of prints and developed a passion for photography. Those vintage photographs inspired the editing style that I use today.

Leigh Anne captured our day exactly how we wanted to remember it; magical, beautiful and fun. Despite being camera-shy and perpetually self-conscious, she made posing feel natural and even made it FUN! She brings a fun and light-hearted energy to the room and made our experience with her a memorable one.

I dropped out of college to pursue photography back in 2014 and haven't looked back since. I'm an introvert at heart, but I come alive when I'm photographing what I love. I enjoy sipping coffee, exploring new places, board games, and creative projects.

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!

DuHon Photography

  • Serves Charlestown, MD

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 like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is hands down the best photographer I’ve ever worked with. Her professionalism and quality of product are unmatched. She goes above and beyond with her work and you can tell how passionate she is about it. If you want someone with great energy, clear communication, incredible products, great professionalism, and so much more then she’s your girl!

  • Serves Charlestown, MD

I was born and raised in a quiet seaside town on the South Shore of Long Island. I grew up in a place where good, strong love grows with parents who have been together since they were 16 years old. They taught me that true love grows in the face of hardship and, as strong believers in their faith, that love is, indeed, patient and kind. And so as soon as I realized that wedding photography didn’t have to be posed and mechanical; that I could shoot weddings from a more organic and authentic lens; that I could document a story, not direct one, I was hooked!

It's undeniable that Lauren is an incredibly talented photographer -- her photos probably already caught your eye hence why you're in this reviews section ;) Aside from the incredible, authentic, editorial, and gorgeous photos Lauren delivered from our wedding, she was also a dream to work with. Lauren is a professional; badass, direct, organized, fun, and most importantly, far from "basic" when it comes to wedding photography. I'm so happy I frantically slid into her DMs years ago when she first started photographing weddings in DC. I will always recommend Lauren and years later, my heart still skips a beat when I fondly look through our wedding photos <3 Thank you, Lauren!!

Her calm and friendly demeanor made taking photos an absolute joy, even for those of us who are a bit camera shy (aka me!) Her husband, as the videographer, was equally amazing. Together, they worked seamlessly, blending into the background while capturing every special moment. The final product was more than we could have ever imagined.

Choosing a wedding photographer was one of the most crucial decisions for our big day, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. From the moment we met Hannah, her genuine passion for photography and capturing special moments was evident. She not not only understood our vision but enhanced it with her (and AMAZING Micah’s) creativity and expertise. On the day of the wedding, they were not just photographers but integral parts of our celebration. Their energy and enthusiasm were infectious, putting everyone at ease and getting genuine smiles and emotions from us and our guests. They seamlessly blended into the background during intimate moments yet took charge (literally Hannah and Micah showed me what to do for a Pinterest inspo pic I sent her) when needed to ensure every important detail was captured beautifully. They let us shine and feel so beyond comfortable and natural, as we are not people that like the camera outside of the wedding! Their talent truly shone through in the final photos. They captured not only the significant moments but also the small, fleeting details that we might have missed in the whirlwind of the day. Looking through the photos brought back all the emotions and memories, making us feel like we were reliving the day itself. I swear I look at them everyday! We cannot recommend our Hillside Film and Photo highly enough. They are not just talented professionals but also genuinely wonderful people who made our wedding day even more special. If you're looking for someone to capture your wedding day with skill, passion, and a contagious enthusiasm, look no further. They are simply amazing! I swear I get more DMs from people asking who our photographer was so that speaks for itself!!

I want you to actually enjoy partying with your friends and eat the awesome meal you have meticulously chosen, not spend it taking portraits for hours. With me, there are no rules. Just fun.

From the moment we reached out, Linda was a dream to work with. She was honest, upfront, and clear about pricing and packages, and worked with us to create the right timeline for our wedding day. She was also incredibly warm and kind throughout. We initially chose Linda because we loved her portfolio of more candid, natural, and photojournalistic/documentary-style images. She brought that same vision to our wedding day, and captured incredible moments for us. During the day, she helped make sure everyone was where they needed to be. She felt like a part of our wedding party. She carried around heavy equipment on a very hot Virginia day in September, and it was very appreciated. She got every shot we had asked for in advance and suggested a few on the fly that became some of our favorites. She got us the photos back in a very timely manner, and it was easy to download and share them with friends and family. We would highly suggest working with Linda for any event and would love to work with her again if we have the opportunity. Working with Linda was a highlight of our wedding process.

A wedding is an exciting day, and I always feel privileged to take part in these memorable occasions. When photographing a wedding I try to be unobtrusive while catching the beautiful moments of your day. I know that the photos I take will be treasured, so I work to deliver a photo gallery that allows you to relive your wedding for years to come. On your wedding day, I strive to get all the essential and traditional wedding shots, as well as the unexpected emotional moments between family and friends. From the pre-ceremony shots, to the last champagne glass standing, I will provide you with a wedding gallery to cherish for a lifetime.

We booked with Amy Tucker and could not be happier with our photos. From the initial phone call, we knew we wanted to use Amy. She was so thorough and explained everything in full detail. We used her for our engagement photos, which turned out amazing so we were even more excited to have her capture our wedding day. She has such a great eye for detail and took some really unique shots. Our venue was new to her so she took the time to go visit and find all the good spots. Her second shooter was amazing as well. We absolutely love our photos and would highly recommend Amy to everyone!

Availability UPDATE: Colin Hayden Photo goes to San Miguel de Allende / July 2023 - July 2024 Please visit my website for further information. I've been taking photos ever since I got my first digital camera in high school. Capturing my friends having fun has always put a smile on my face. Photographing weddings is much the same: people throwing a fantastic party where everyone has a great time and I'm there to help you remember through photos.

I can't imagine anyone better than Colin to document our wedding with breathtakingly beautiful photos! First and perhaps most importantly, Colin is a nice guy. He's friendly and personable and he immediately puts one at ease. Next, he's a consummate professional, on-time, polite, and thorough. But his photos!? He gave exactly what we'd hoped to receive. Initially, we hired someone our wedding planner suggested, but never quite felt comfortable with his dark and arty aesthetic. Colin's photos are bright and bold and lighthearted, just like us and our event! And he really seemed to have a good time with us and our friends and family. It didn't seem like work to him. We couldn't be happier! Honestly.

Vlad was incredible. From the beginning when we were inquiring, he was super communicative and clear with his experience and talked through any concerns or needs we had before signing our contract. Leading up to the event he answered any of my questions and made me feel at ease. On the day of the wedding, I didn't have to worry about a single thing. He made it easy. We were always communicating and he was very flexible as the night created chaos. My husband and I are thrilled with how calm but confident Vlad and Vlad were throughout the day and how efficient they were. They also showed us some of the shots they got and I am so excited to see the final product! We know we will have so much content from the day that we will treasure forever. Thank you Daydream!

Richard Barnes Photography

  • Serves Charlestown, MD

With over 40 years of experience including Weddings/Events and Newspaper Photojournalist for many Tri STate publications including 3 years at the Phila Inquire, I am more than confident to capture the beauty and excitement of your Wedding Day ! I am a Preferred Photographer at several Venues including DuPont CC , Presidential Caterers , Thousand Acre Farms, Lazaretto Ballroom and more , who trust me to represent them and provide you with the best service.

From start to finish it was a pleasure working with Richard. We hired him for both our engagement shoot as well as the wedding day itself. We were initially drawn to Richard because we liked his style, and then after chatting with him on the phone it was clear that he was not only a professional but passionate about his work. He described his style while working as "constantly on the hunt for those moments to capture," and that couldn't be more true! Besides the usual photos you'd expect from wedding photography of the bride & groom, family, and wedding party (all of which came out great, by the way), we loved how many moments around the ceremony and reception Richard was able to capture that we weren't even aware of at the time! It was impressive watching him work: a one man show with his head on a swivel, never hesitating to drop to the floor or get up on a chair to get the right shot if he thought that's what the moment called for. And wow did the photos come out great! We are so happy that we hired Richard for our wedding and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer!

I’m Mike Williams, the guy behind the lens at DigitalFirst Photography. I currently live right outside of Philadelphia, and serve the entire tri-state area. DigitalFirst Photography was started in 2006 while I was in college. I always loved cameras and movies, but never really knew where to begin. So, I bought a camera and just started taking photos of whatever I could. One wedding turned into two, which turned into four, and so on and so forth. After 17 years and more than 800 weddings, I still love capturing moments in time. After your wedding day, all you really have left are your photos and videos. Let's make memories together!

Mike and his team consistently deliver great results - they are professional, reliable, fun and great to work with! I highly recommend them!

Courtney Hathaway Photography

  • Serves Charlestown, MD

Born & raised on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, I've been capturing love stories for over 15 years. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for over 10 years, and raising our two sweet boys on this little sandbar we call home is a dream come true. While we are based on the OBX, we happily serve couples on the Outer Banks and Beyond, and enjoy spending the winter months in Costa Rica.

If you need a photographer, Courtney Hathaway is the one to hire! Fun, caring and talented are just a few words to begin with. My husband and I are both camera shy and from day 1 of shooting our engagement, Courtney made us feel comfortable and confident. We had a giant wedding party and a toddler on board, no prob for Courtney! Everyone has expressed to us how fun she made our wedding shoot and how gorgeous all the photos turned out. She certainly knows how to work with big groups, shy couples, and little kids! We've worked with her through pouring rain from a tropical depression (wedding day), whipping winds on a beach (engagement shoot), and a perfect warm sunset surprise engagement by the sound. Every single time, she pulls through and creates timeless beautiful galleries.

We're a pair of super fun wedding photographers, filmmakers + elopement planners (also officiants) and we're already your biggest fan <3 Award winning! Multi published! Featured in magazines! Neurodivergent! LGBTQ+! Artistic! Unique! Vintage videos! One-of-a-kind timelapse films! We love working with film + vintage video cameras, capturing little moments others forget about, and creating portraits that would make David Lynch + Alexander McQueen weep with excitement. Contact us anytime day or night and we'll be super pumped to get to know you and explain more of what makes us so unique.

I cannot recommend Requiem Images enough. I randomly found them on Instagram when I was searching for an elopement photographer. Being a photographer myself, I am extremely particular and was a bit afraid I’d never find someone to live up to my expectations. Not only did kitty meet my expectations, she exceeded them. From start to finish, I was impressed with the professionalism and love that poured out of this amazing human. I am, per my own designation, an incredibly awkward subject. I’m used to hiding behind the camera, but Kitty made me feel so comfortable. I honestly can’t believe the images she was able to capture. Her attention to detail and ability to make people feel at ease are truly a gift. Not only did I use her for our elopement, but I also subsequently hired her for our family pictures, and then my own branding session. She has raw talent and an eye for the extraordinary. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Requiem Images to everyone I know (or don’t know!). Book them immediately. You will not regret it!!

Hi! I'm Meghan. I've had a love for photography since my parents bought me my first camera for Christmas in 2001. I took pictures of anyone and anything that sat still for more than .03 seconds. The more pictures I took, the more I loved it. It became a passion of mine, but it wasn't until later that I had the dream of starting my own business. In the meantime, I teach middle school - 7th grade Language Arts to be exact. Yes, it's exactly as crazy as you're imagining, likely even more so. Teaching has taught me two things: patience and how to laugh at myself.

Working with Meghan is always a treat. Clients love her because she is high-energy, hilarious, and just amazing behind the lens. Meghan has a creative eye for those candid moments and really captures the most important moments on a wedding day. Seeing her work first-hand, it's beautiful. Her images truly reflect the emotions shared between two people. I'm constantly amazed and inspired by her work. There is a reason she is my favorite photographer to work with. She knows how to read a room and a situation, so nothing gets missed. Wedding days go by quickly, but with Meghan, they go by even quicker because you're having so much fun. She's like that extra wedding party member you didn't know you needed. She's got your back. If you're looking for professionalism, stunning photos, and a good time, you want Meghan Luckenbill.

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.

Liz photographed our wedding this spring and we’re absolutely obsessed with the photos. She captured so many sweet organic moments of our love and with our guests, and she has such a great eye for color. Our wedding was bright and colorful out in nature, and everything just pops so well in the photos while still looking really natural. Liz was so kind and helpful and easy to work with the whole time. Highly recommend working with her for your wedding!

I'm Amanda, the face behind the camera! I am 31 years old, a wife to my amazing husband and a mother to our 2 adorable boys. My husband and I have been together for 10 years and married for 2. I started my business in the beginning of 2019 while living in North Carolina. What I thought was just going to be a part time hobby, turned into something much much more. I was a stay at home mom looking to do something with my life that gave me more of a purpose, and that is when I started photographing weddings!

Jaclyn here; boudoir and wedding photographer in North Wales, Pennsylvania. When the weather is nice typically I am out kayaking, gardening, hiking, or reading a book outside.
