Rob Jinks Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,600
  • Serves Gainesville, VA

For me, photography all started with the outdoors. As someone who loves to bike, hike, kayak, and backpack, photos were a way to capture the vistas and memories I was creating. Photography snowballed into sports, journalism, concerts, products, events, portraits, finally landing on weddings. Weddings became what I loved most due to their fast pace nature, creative freedom, and the opportunity to document real, life-long memories. Every couple and every family has a unique, incredible story. It’s a blessing to be able to document these life-changing events that people can look back on forever.

We hired Rob for our wedding in Aug 2019 in Norfolk, VA. Having worked with Rob before when I used to photograph weddings, I knew he had a creative eye, captured moments of true emotion very stealthily, and processed his photos in a more natural look rather than relying on heavy filters or overly exposed light. His style was exactly what we wanted. He was easy to work with throughout the whole process and really took the time to learn more about me and my husband. I love the portraits from both our engagement session and wedding. We received so many compliments from family and friends about Rob’s amazing work. We highly recommend Rob as a photographer!!!

She had us do a bunch of cute little things that seem silly but make the sweetest and most beautiful photos. Her editing style is stunning and I loved every single photo she sent us!

Welcome. Introducing Bel Air 1740, a new wedding and events venue in Prince William, Virginia. Located on the grounds of the historic Bel Air estate, Bel Air 1740 features a state-of-the-art barn wedding and event venue.

Beautiful landscaping around the grounds complements the stunning interior space designed on a single level with your event in mind.

An enchanting venue! Just what we were looking for to host our daughter’s Quinceañera this May. Bel Air is as gorgeous in person as it looks in the pictures. Fitting our theme (enchanted forest), Bel Air has a very well-kept garden, a gorgeous path of aged trees, and of course the spacious rustic barn to compliment every aspect of our “Enchanted Quince” event. The space is gorgeous with minimal decor, or a blank canvas for creativity. Perfect to begin and end the day in one place, from hair and makeup to end of reception, and with all the magical moments in between. We used every spot of the venue and worked with Maria to get the lights to change colors during the event as we progressed through different segments and performances of the night. She was great to work with before and during the event. We are very thankful for her receptivity to our questions and ideas as we put together a very busy event. Our guests loved the beauty of the venue and vendors who were new to Bel Air were stunned by such a gorgeous place in such a convenient location. My recommendation is: book early!

Not only are we so happy with the outcome of our film, family and friends were excited to see Manny's work as they watched him creatively capture moments throughout the day in action.

Hi NearlyWeds! Tate + Co is ready to help you enjoy your engagement season while preparing for your marriage! It is my hope that you are able to set aside any things that are causing you stress or anxiety so that you can enjoy the beautiful start to your marriage. I've worked with couples all over the state of Virginia crafting their perfect day, and I'm excited to meet you and help you on your wedding journey!

TLDR: Easy communication, handles everything, calming, amazing experience. Madi helped us plan and coordinated our wedding in June at the Eaton DC. We cannot recommend her enough!! During the planning process, she was the perfect balance of being the cheerleader for our ideas, and weighing in with her own when we needed another perspective. We felt pretty unprepared and clueless about planning a wedding, and Madi was so accepting of that and really validated us along the way. She handed all of the communication and emails, which was a huge task and a relief to hand off. On the actual wedding day, Madi and her team made everything feel comfortable and easy. Madi has such a calm demeanor that we completely trusted that no matter what happened, she was going to take care of it and it wouldn’t impact us. And it didn’t! We weren’t aware of any logistics going on around us, and Madi and her team made sure it was the most special for us. Our friends and family commented throughout the night and afterwards on how great Madi and her team were. I am SO glad and grateful we had Madi for our wedding, and I wholeheartedly encourage anyone looking for planning or coordination to go with Tate Co.

We are proud and happy to help curate every wedding to our couple's romantic specifications. We include coordination, and no 'must use' vendors list so you can make your wedding personal and relaxing. We only offer totally private rentals, so you can feel like your guests are visiting you in your own home. Our pet-friendly property even lets you bring your pups. Rixey offers the most spectacular views... from the top of the Blue Ridge Mountains on one side, to the bottom of Rixey Lake on the other. Our rooftop and patio spaces make for a magical setting both at sunset and at night, and the Ballroom, complete with climate control and ADA-accessible bathrooms, means that inclement weather won't have a negative effect on your special day. The history of the house lends an air of vintage elegance, but what most of our couples love is the comfy atmosphere provided by big sofas, real fires, and the ability to curl up at the end of the night in the library with your favorite people.

The best venue anyone could ask for! Isadora and her team (Grace, Adam, and all the rest of the crew) demonstrated not only the highest levels of professionalism and talent, they were also so welcoming, easy-going, and fun. We were sold when we first laid eyes on the venue itself, but after meeting with Isadora, this team deserves to be in the pantheon of the all-time greatest wedding vendors. The Rixey team knocked it out of the park during our wedding weekend AND they were crucial resources throughout our planning process. From their excellent organization skills to their bridal bootcamp events, this team helped us to feel so confident and secure going into our wedding. Our wedding party also loved staying at the manor, and it's all thanks to Rixey's amazing team. We cannot recommend them enough!

We had a budget so she worked with us and helped create our timeline in order to maximize photos within our allotted time. She made everyone feel comfortable, was quick to direct us for poses/candids, and was very flexible when the family made it hard to coordinate for photos. Professionalism 10/10, Photos 100/10, Communication 10/10. I will forever be grateful that I was able to get her to photograph our wedding.

Ricki was the absolute best investment I made in my wedding. She was so easy to work with and is single-handedly the reason my wedding went off without a hitch. From our first meeting to loading up decor at the end of the wedding day, she was amazing, enthusiastic, and professional. She went above and beyond in dealing with vendors and took so much off my plate. She also saved my mental health in the months/weeks leading up to the wedding, not bothered by my many questions and random thoughts and happily answered them all. She took my random thoughts and my very rough vision for decor and ran with it. I was stunned and amazed when I saw how everything turned out. She also was amazing in dealing with an unhappy venue staff member at the end of the wedding, ensuring our evening was perfect. So much so that we didn’t realize anything had happened until the next day. I cannot recommend Ricki and her team enough!!

I've been in business since September of 2006. I've been a bride, bridesmaid, maid of honor and a mother of the groom. I have experience from those different perspectives and therefore I can see and hear the different sides to a wedding or event. I have literally been in their shoes. This helps me to help my clients in so many ways. I love all the details that go into every wedding. I love to put it all together and see the happy faces of my couples when it all does comes together. I am team YOU. It's your wedding, and I do my very best to make your day as stress-less as possible.

We hired Renee for coordination only. Then COVID happened. Our venue canceled on us and we then had to cancel our wedding. We had no idea what to do. Renee was there helping us figure it out. And, although this was unchartered waters for her too, she was so calm and got us through it. We are planning a new celebration hopefully in 2021, and so far we are so happy we hired Renee. We reviewed Renee on The Knot previously. Here is our update: Yes, we did replan our wedding and Renee was there every step. We had our wedding in October of 2021. Our wedding was small and intimate with all of our important family and friends. Renee is awesome and did such an amazing job organizing, planning and coordinating everything.

I've been an avid photographer since 14, starting with a Nikon F3 film SLR from my grandparents. My passion led me to transform my hobby into a business after 13 years. I've collaborated with world-class photographers, remarkable clients, and exceptional vendors. What sets me apart is my personal connection with clients, making them feel comfortable. My storytelling approach captures genuine emotions and unique moments. With extensive experience, particularly in weddings, I bring technical expertise and artistic vision to every shoot. When you hire me, you're gaining a dedicated storyteller committed to high-quality, timeless photos.

By far the easiest, most involved and communicative vendor I’ve ever worked with. Nathan was my wedding photographer and was proactive from the start. He provided pose ideas, suggestions for a successful day, and tips and tricks he gathered from previous events. Fantastic price and will definitely hire him again to capture future life events

Hello!!! I’m so excited to connect. I’m a family and wedding photographer based in Northern Virginia! I love real moments, and focus and all the candid fun, no stress. This day, these moments will live forever and ever, and it’s my job and privilege as your storyteller to snap them all!

Beginning the wedding planning process is daunting in itself, but the anxiety of finding the person that shares your vision for your photos (basically your concrete memories) can be so challenging. Not only do you want someone that can capture the candid beautiful moments of your big day, but also someone that makes you feel comfortable enough to celebrate and enjoy it. We never wanted staged or posed seeming photos for our wedding, just captured moments of real life and the joy of real people celebrating with us. Becky delivered. She was kind, patient, guiding, supportive, and (my favorite part) celebrated in our joy that day. She was so easy to work with, it honestly felt like a friend taking care of us. We would recommend Becky to anyone—she has a versatile portfolio and is always looking to better herself and connect with others. If you want your wedding day captured in photos that genuinely show you—Becky is the one!

He was able to deal with all the ebbs and flows of a wedding day and did so professionally. We were thrilled to have him be a part of our day and could not have been happier with our decision to choose him as our DJ.
