  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Fairfax, VA

Thanks so much for stopping by! I'm glad you're here. ​ I married my best friend and I am a girl mom to the two most inspirational girls in the world. Coffee is my fuel and when I’m not taking pictures, you can find me in my garden. Photography is my passion and art is my refuge - the combination of the two is where I find myself most at peace. I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in Havre de Grace, Maryland. I'm grateful that capturing beautiful and once-in-a-lifetime memories is how I get to spend many of my days.

Gabbi is an absolute dream photographer! From our initial meeting, we knew she was the perfect fit. We were drawn to her "moody" yet elegant timeless style, which she captures beautifully in both color and black and white. For our wedding (with a black and white theme) and engagement shoot (in downtown Baltimore, capturing a romantic getaway vibe), Gabbi completely nailed our vision. She’s incredibly talented, professional, and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. The fact that our engagement session was included in her wedding package was a huge bonus! We got our sneak peeks back the next day and they are stunning. We can’t wait to see the rest of the gallery – we know it will be spectacular!

I began my career a decade ago. As a tour photographer, I began accompanying musicians all over the world. Little did I know at that point the low lights, high energy, and late nights would translate well into my career as a wedding photographer. My start as a music photographer gave me the confidence to navigate even the most challenging and unpredictable situations, and I use the same philosophy now while photographing weddings: keep calm, stay observant, and follow the action.

We are so thrilled that we managed to book Jess for our engagement photos and wedding! Beautiful photography was a priority for us, and we wanted our photos to have a genuine, documentary style feel. We wanted the photos to capture the real beauty of the day, without being too heavily edited (we hate the photographers who made everything look pastel!). Jessica was completely in line with our style. My husband and I aren’t naturals in front of the camera, but Jessica made us feel so at ease. We were never uncomfortable with Jessica, and she felt like a natural part of the day. Jessica’s photos speak for themselves. She is able to create stunning visuals, but most impressively, Jess captures emotion in all of her photographs. At our wedding, Jessica and her assistant Kat were always present, but never intrusive. I feel like she is a photography ninja—I don’t even remember seeing her at certain moments, and yet there are beautiful photos of everything. No detail or moment was missed. From the day we worked with Jess on our engagement photos, we knew we were in more than capable hands. I am so impressed with Jessica’s ability to find unique spaces and framing for our photos—some of my favorite photos are in front of everyday places, but with Jessica’s eye they are turned into beautiful works of art. Because she did such a fantastic job with our engagement photos, we had no worries at all on our wedding day. One of Jess’ strengths is her background working as a photographer on music tours. Put her in any type of lighting or setting, and she has the technical skills and experience to create something amazing. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Jess’ professionalism—she is always early and is kind to everyone she interacts with. She is so passionate and excited about her work. Her calm, unflappable attitude made her a pleasure to be around on our wedding day. Her enthusiasm for her work is evident. She's also incredibly hardworking at every stage of the process. Jessica was able to edit our photos and got them back to us within 6 days of our wedding—that is unheard of! We love Jess and are so impressed by her! She is beyond talented and her stunning work will let us relive our wedding day whenever we want. All of our photos were fantastic—it’s hard to narrow down even our top 100 photos. We can’t thank Jess enough for capturing the joy we felt on our wedding day. I’m truly sad that our time working together is over. Jess was easily one of our favorite vendors, and we wish her all the best as she continues to grow her business! We would enthusiastically recommend that you hire Jessica for all your photography needs. Update-- My husband and I were lucky to hire Jessica again about a year after our wedding to shoot some photos of us and our new puppy. As expected, the photos came out beautifully and were delivered to us quickly!

She made us feel so comfortable and confident throughout the whole process. Our timeline didn't go according to plan on wedding day, and Sarah was so accommodating and flexible. She helped me to stay calm, which is hard to do as the bride on your wedding day! She sent us some sneak peak pictures and they are seriously magazine worthy; we are obsessed! Utilizing Sarah's photography services for your wedding will be the best decision you make. 10/10 recommend!

Mikkel Paige Photography doesn't simply take photos - she creates them. She'll laugh and joke with you to get those smiles going to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera so you’re free to be yourselves. Her vibrant photos resonate with couples who gravitate towards color and the details. Mikkel is an avid traveler and will go any distance to capture love and work with fun-loving couples, from the Caribbean, to California, Walt Disney World, Norway and beyond.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Mikkel was one of the first things I did when I got engaged. I let her know immediately the dates we had in mind so I was sure that she would be our wedding photographer. The truth is, I gave her very little direction on what I wanted because I trusted her vision and work completely. The day of the wedding, our entire family was so impressed at how well she knew everyone's name, our entire family dynamic, as well as our location (we did a destination wedding and Mikkel made sure to do a full walkthrough of the entire property beforehand). We still joke about how much little involvement we had because we felt so comfortable working with her! I will say this time and time again, hire someone you trust and know will give you peace of mind. Mikkel captured every moment so beautifully and seamlessly I almost forgot we were being photographed. Hands down the best decision we made!

Hi, my name is Juan, AKA Jay, I am a Western Massachusetts based photographer. I first began my interest in photography in grade school. While my teacher would conduct the class I would be interested in the images so I could make more of a connection. I was also dubbed the "family photographer" whenever there was a family function. I am more of a non-traditional photographer, meaning, I enjoy control candid photos vs traditional posing photos.

She pays attention to every little detail to get the best photos and was so skilled in finding the perfect shots throughout the weekend. We loved working with her and would suggest her to any couple across the country as she knows how to scope out any area for the best shots. Her consultation process was great, she gave us a lot of good ideas and considerations to help us make sure we got in as many good family/friend shots as possible so the whole wedding party could have nice photos to remember the weekend by as well as us. She went above and beyond throughout the wedding night, coming back to grab her camera off the clock to get a bunch of candid photos of the dance floor and reception.

Belinda is incredible. We hired her back in September and are having a larger ceremony/reception in 2025. The first time we met her she drove almost three hours to us in November and the second time was for our fairly rushed legal ceremony two hours away from her. My grandparents are the reason we moved our wedding up. Not only did she allow us to substitute our engagement shoot for this ceremony, she of her own volition and the kindness of her heart included family portraits of my grandparents individually and together knowing that they were more my concern. She made them feel included, and was beyond accommodating of their needs and handicaps. Her kindness, grace, professionalism, and ability to work with people knows no bounds and I would recommend her to anyone. I tear up every time I think about how incredible she is and how blessed I am to have her as part of my special day. You cannot go wrong hiring her.

Kelsey Cuervo photography began out of a love of art and a proclivity to create, and evolved into a passion for capturing genuine connection in an artful way. I approach my clients with a desire to capture their genuine connection using their love story as my source of inspiration.

There is nobody we would have rather had with us throughout the planning process and on our wedding day. Judging from her other work, we knew that we would be getting a stunning final product, but what you can't see in her pictures online is how friendly she is, how comfortable she makes you feel behind the camera (I was particularly nervous our first go around for the engagement shoot), and how well she directs and manages people to create her magic. Now for the product! My wife and I sat down together when Kelsey sent us the final photos and it genuinely took us back to our wedding day. She captured both the emotion and the beauty of it all so well, and we now have these pictures to look back on for the rest of our lives. We feel so lucky to have her as our photographer and friend.

We came across Alaaeldin while searching online through various wedding websites, aiming to find a photographer with positive reviews, reasonable pricing, and an impressive wedding portfolio. After interviewing several photographers, we had the pleasure of connecting with Alaaeldin, who impressed us right from the start with his profound knowledge of photography and the entire wedding process. Along with his team he provided us with valuable guidance and materials from the planning stage up until the wedding day. This was incredibly helpful especially for a new bride-to-be like myself whether or not we had a wedding planner. One thing that stood out was his pro/con list regarding whether or not to do a first look. This list played a significant role in helping my husband and me make our decision. From the moment we booked Alaaeldin and his team, they were highly responsive to any questions or concerns I had. Their dedication was remarkable even during weeks of no communication, Alaaeldin would send a quick note to check in on how I was doing and if I needed any assistance. He even sent a thoughtful text the day before the wedding reassuring me that he was there for me if I needed anything at all. Initially, I was apprehensive about posing correctly and being conscious of having a double chin in the photos – silly, I know! However, he made us feel so at ease that we ended up going with the flow and posing naturally in the moment. They created a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, making the entire experience fun and memorable. We genuinely felt like we were spending time with lifelong friends. For future couples considering Alaaeldin's services, we have some valuable advice to offer: 1. Don't miss the engagement session; it's a must! and 2. definitely consider getting the photobooth! Our guests had an incredible time, and it added an exciting and lively element to the celebration.

As a wedding photographer, I get to capture those fleeting, special moments that make each couple's love story unique. With over 4 + years of experience, I blend artistry with technical skill to create images that are not only beautiful but deeply meaningful.

Caleb was fantastic to work with. From the very beginning, he had excellent communication(from the time we booked him for our wedding.) Caleb made sure to touch base constantly to make sure everything was going good, and to see if we needed anything from him, and to send him any photo ideas we had. He was punctual to the wedding, and his professionalism and laid back style, was perfect for us and our wedding. By the time we got home from our wedding reception, he had already sent us some edited photos. Caleb’s editing style also matches the look we were after. He always had pose suggestions for us, constant ideas for how to take group shots large or small. He made us, our family and our wedding guests VERY comfortable. I would highly recommend hiring Caleb for your wedding, or any event.

More specifically, Jules managed the tight timeline like a PRO and made shooting in 30 degrees still FUN! Jules will be our photographer for life. I'm so thankful to have had her for our wedding! We love you Jules!

Photography By Brea 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Fairfax, VA

When I’m not photographing weddings, I am a rock climber, scuba diver, glass blower (#breablowsglass on instagram), ukulele, guitar, and guitarlele player, world traveler, and cat mom to Sherlock (sherlocknessmonster on instagram). During the winter, I teach a video class at the Sheffield Institute of the Recording Arts and I love having a positive impact on my students. Everything I love to do challenges me personally and makes me a stronger person. I feel the most alive when I feel connected to this beautiful planet and the people on it.

Brea and her team are absolute geniuses at what they do! Brea made us feel so comfortable during our most intimate photo shoots (engagement and first look), and was extremely efficient getting all of our family and friend photos together. The candids are the best part. Brea and her team have a way of capturing moments like no other wedding photographer I've ever seen. We are aboslultely in love with our wedding photos--and the best part--we received the full album less than a month after the wedding! Brea is extremely kind, professional, creative, and very good at what she does. We are so pleased to have had the chance to work with Brea!

I'm Aimee Nguyễn. I’m a sarcastic 28 year old who loves to travel, cook, and snuggle with her cat. I have been photographing all kinds of love since 2017. My main goal on your wedding day is to capture your love and day authentic to you while making you feel comfy and stress-free. I take a lot of my inspiration from dope cinematography and my couples. I want to create visual poetry that speaks to your heart and soul, celebrating all the joy and happiness that surrounds you on your wedding day. My albums are meant to speak to your heart, not just the highlights.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've had the privilege of working alongside Aimee as a fellow vendor; she was the photographer and I was the videographer. This means we were together for 10 hours, which offered me a deep look into how Aimee operates on a wedding day. Aimee does a great job delicately balancing professionalism and comforting ease. She knows how to joke around, but you never feel like she isn't still focused on giving you the best photos. While I was impressed by Aimee's approach to the wedding day, I was also so impressed when I saw how the final images turned out. She did an incredible job and I highly recommend her!

Grace Dreim Photography

Like with anything I do, I’ve put much heart, work and energy into photography. Yet, the most rewarding part are still the emotions, and happy messages I get from my clients. Nothing charges and empowers me more. On your wedding day, you shouldn't have to worry, cause I am there to help you in every way possible. I make sure your dress is all nice and fluffed in every picture, that there is nothing in your teeth, I catch every fly away and I am there to be your hype girl.

Grace was an absolute gem of a human on the day of my wedding and leading up to it. I can't get over how stunning the photos are just from the sneak peek gallery. She has such an eye for unique shots and is amazing at directing you as well as your overly-stimulated new husband. We coordinated a ton of surprise aspects and were able to pull them off with Grace's help. She also ended up fixing boutonnieres, ensuring my hair looked amazing before each shot, and worked so well with our videographer, planner and all other vendors. I can't wait to see the full gallery and can't recommend her enough!
