Awarded Best of Zola
We loved working with Megan for our engagement and wedding photos. She was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the entire process, and on top of that, is a cool, down to earth human being. If you pick Rust Manor House as your venue, Megan is a must. She knew all the best spots and our album turned out fantastic. We have so many beautiful photos to choose from! Out of all our vendors, Megan took the cake for her professionalism, organization and positivity. If we had to go through the planning process again, we'd go with Megan as our photographer 11 times out of 10. Thank you, Megan!!! Rachel and JP

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.

Hannah was very helpful through this process and provided consistent updates and news. She was quick to respond and very friendly! We absolutely LOVED our photos and our family and friends keep raving about them. Each memorable moment was beautifully captured forever. Casie was AMAZING and made sure to get EVERY picture I wanted and even the ones I didn't know I wanted. Jonathan was working hard to capture the perfect moments for our video. My husband and I cannot get enough of the shots taken! THANK YOU AND YOUR TEAM FOR EVERYTHING!

Hi, I'm Sophia, a 26-year-old wedding photographer based just outside DC in NoVA. Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — vibrant, authentic, and joyful.

Jess was amazing, she was professional and understood what we wanted better than we did. The passion she has for photography showed in every word she said, and every picture she took. We’re convinced that Jess must have a twin because it isn’t possible for one person to move around the way she did and capture every moment from the best angles. We will never use another photographer for any event besides Jess.

Tiffany has been my go-to photographer for more than five years now, and for very very good reason! Her work contains an artistic touch that I have never seen recreated anywhere else and her ability to make something incredible out of seemingly nothing in the environment of the shoot is unparalleled. In addition to high level results in artistic, family, couples, and wedding photography, Tiffany has done multiple series of head shots for me to use in my own professional setting - every time I update my LinkedIn or post those pictures to any social media the response is overwhelmingly positive! She brings so much to the table that I wait however long it takes for her to be available before getting any more photography done for me. I cannot recommend her enough, especially since her capacity to deliver clear, easy, and understandable instructions makes sessions a breeze and the kids always have so much fun working with her.

Let's live your life celebrations and let go of “supposed to do.” If you find yourself craving a wedding day experience that is more enjoying the day and less about all day posing, you are in the right spot.

Hiring Kelly was absolutely one of the best decisions that we made for our wedding and we can’t recommend her highly enough. She spent so much time getting to know us before the wedding, and our photos very clearly reflect her attention to capturing what was important to us. We really wanted to see the joy and breadth of emotions of the day and wanted photos that reflected our wedding as vibrant and loving, and that shines through in every photo!! Kelly is also so personable and brings such a wonderful energy to all parts of the process which made us feel so comfortable and so happy to have her with us! In addition to creating a photography schedule that was invaluable and that we shaped the rest of the schedule around, she made sure to note people’s accessibility needs and to work with us closely on comfort for everyone as we had a lot of access needs. She answered every question we had happily and was just such a wonderful part of our day!! She also did our engagement photos at Great Falls and they turned out just so gorgeous. I had a lot of anxiety about how I would feel about the photos as a plus size bride and Kelly listened to my concerns and made me so comfortable and I’m so so thrilled with the photos and feel gorgeous in all of them, which I'm very grateful for!

We're Jaira + Jesse. We’re equal parts homebodies and avid travelers. We had a traditional wedding, and while it was the right decision for us at the time, looking back it could’ve been so much more intentional, focused on us + our relationship, and the things we’re the most passionate about. Because of that, we have grown to be super passionate and dedicated to helping couples create elopements and intimate weddings that are the truest reflection of themselves in the places that inspire them the most and documenting that for them.

Jaira and jesse have been 2 of our favorite people for a long time and to have them take our engagement and wedding photos was such a dream. The engagement pictures felt like just going on an adventure with our best friends on top of a mountain. And our wedding photos we were able to be ourselves and they captured all of the best moments. We look back at all our photos at least once a month and are always in love. They are truly incredible at what they do and I can’t recommend them enough. If your looking for a laid back, down for anything photographer these are your people too!

Hi, I’m Yelitza (Je-lit-sa ... don't worry! I got you). I’m a photographer, wife, nurse, fur-mom of three, new avid hiker, and a pretty darn good baker; and I’m here (dramatic pause) to tell your story. I found photography my freshman year of high school (I needed some credits in a pinch and this was it), three days in class and I was in love. Fast forward a few year (hey! hey! not too many years... Watch it! lol) and I'm still just as in love as that third day.

This was my first time working with Yalford Photography and I was impressed by the detail of her timeline. We worked together to make sure everything coincided and made any adjustments as needed. On the day of the clients wedding we all worked together as a team to give the couple the best day. The photos are beautiful. Consider Yalford you won't regret it !

The two things I value most are my family and our memories. What better way to engrain a memory than having it in a timeless photo? That leads me to where I am today! I am here to learn, grow and along the way help other people freeze their memories in time, as I do my own. When I’m not behind the camera or with my nose in a book, I am with my two fur babies; Sadie and Nash; my life partner and best friend, Isaiah; or my family. Thank you for stopping by and I hope to meet you soon!

I have worked with Kelsey on several occasions and she is such a doll to work with! She cares about her couples and making sure they are comfortable and get the best experience! I would work with her again and again!!! Looking for a great photographer but one who also cares, she is right here!!

THERE IS A LOT GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES.OUR PHOTOGRAPHY IS BOLD & CREATIVE, AIMING TO TELL STORIES AND DOCUMENT THE REAL MOMENTS. WE ARE MORE THAN HAPPY TO SHOOT A FEW FORMALS AND WE ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO THE BRIDE AND GROOM SESSIONS.

This review is massively long overdue (we got married 5/20/2022), but I absolutely have to write one. Maria and Ricky are hands down the BEST people and we could not have been luckier to have the pleasure of them capturing our wedding! They got exactly the vibes we wanted, all the shots we wanted, were so easy to communicate with, and are just the nicest and most fun people! We did our engagement shoot with them in NYC and the photos could not have been any better. We communicated the types of shots we were looking for and, since they were living there, they were able to give us the best tips for location and shots! Our wedding was better than we could have ever imagined. We got the best posed shots and the absolute best candid shots. We barely even realized the were photographing/taking video of us during the reception which we loved, but we also just loved their presence. They were so much fun and added to the party, they were dancing while shooting and made everyone so happy and comfortable. Our guests still talk about them and how awesome they are! Our video is breathtaking, we are taken back to the day every time we watching and it always brings us to tears. The photos are incredible; we constantly look through our photos and love displaying them in our home to look at all the time. We have since referred several people to them because we would love everyone to have the same experience we had!

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!!

I want to cover your day in a way that highlights the joy and sincerity that surrounds you and the people you love. Some emotions are unbridled, but most are nuanced and fleeting. When you look back at your set of images, I want you to be transported back to that day and to have those feelings rekindled. My role is to be an observer and a listener. The less time I spend interrupting, the more time I can spend watching, waiting, and capturing the moments that should be remembered. If I’m there to record it, it’ll be without printed pages from other photographers you’d like to see imitated. I'll be there as me – and I’ll be capturing you.

From our first meeting with The Vibrant we had no doubt that they were the photographers for us and would deliver stunning photos of our wedding day...and yet somehow they still managed to far exceed our expectations! We're not your typical bride and groom (I'm 55, he's 52) and our wedding was far from traditional...in fact, we chose a 76-year old dive bar as the location for our ceremony - a cool spot for sure, but not exactly an optimal setup or lighting for wedding photos. Oh, and then there's the unfortunate fact that I usually (unintentionally) make the most ridiculous facial expressions if I know someone's taking my picture... But somehow Michelle and David managed to work magic from behind their cameras on our wedding day, and we couldn't possibly be any happier with the results. They didn't just take pictures of our wedding and reception, rather they masterfully captured the day's spirit of love, laughter, fun, and funky uniqueness in a way that will preserve our memories of those moments forever. Almost as importantly, Michelle's and David's fun personalities and easygoing style put me so at ease that they even managed to get shots that made me feel beautiful, and what bride doesn't want that? Check out The Vibrant...if you book them for your wedding or event I can promise you'll be glad you did - Michelle, Michael, and David are consummate professionals, incredibly talented and creative photographers/artists, and just all around good people...

Alissa with Sweet Bliss Media was very personable and easy to connect with. On my wedding day, she made me feel like it was her life's mission to make me feel and look beautiful in my photographs. Amidst all the craziness of your wedding day, it felt nice to have someone by your side to bring out the beauty. Who is not just there as a photographer for hire, but a forever friend capturing the special moments. Alissa also did things that she was not asked or contracted to, but just out of the kindness of her heart. She brought me bottled water to ensure that I stayed hydrated and even stayed later than we had originally laid out in the contract to make sure that my send-off was captured! She is a sweetheart and even though the photography was the biggest bill of the wedding budget, it was worth every penny, even my husband agrees. The finished product is absolutely stunning and we can’t wait to use her again for our family photos!! We highly recommend Alissa to all brides looking for a wedding photographer.

Okay, and maybe binge watching Schitt's Creek, Gilmore Girls, or Grey's Anatomy for the hundredth time.

I moved to the States at 9 years old and served in the Marines for 7 years in adulthood. I am too tall for most kid activities and too damn short for most adult activities. I LOVE capturing the raw, unplanned, and candid emotions pouring out of humans. Been doing this sh*t since I was 10 years old! I don't find joy in "cookie-cutter" poses and pictures... I want to capture you JUST THE WAY YOU ARE.

I seriously cannot put into words how amazing Nam is. My now husband and I had never done a photoshoot together so I was nervous how we would be. Nam made it so easy to feel comfortable in front of the camera. She’s a gem! Our wedding went flawlessly because of her. She stayed on track and got every requested photo and then some. She fit right in with all of us, cracking jokes and all. She has such a great personality and will go the extra mile for “the shot”. Can’t recommend enough!!

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.
