Hi I'm Hannah and I'm from tiny fishing village in Cornwall, England but moved here to North Carolina in 2017. Fun fact, they actually filmed some of scenes for the Game of Thrones spin off, House of the dragon there! It's hard to pick favorites but if your wedding includes a dog in the bridal party, a dress with pockets and the cupid shuffle....COUNT ME IN! Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.

Sharp Impressions Photo

I've had a camera in my hand since I was at least ten years old. Photography has always been something I've been passionate about. I was the friend that captured all the memories in high school. Once I got older, and more interested in this becoming something real, I decided to start my business in 2018. I've had the pleasure of working with the most loving clients ever since.

Sharp Impressions Photo was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was quick and responsive, putting us at ease during the planning process. On the day of the wedding, Kay and her assistant were genuinely joyful for us, expertly directing our friends and family to capture beautiful, documentary-style photos that truly reflect the spirit of our special day. The quality of their work is exceptional, and we couldn't be happier with the final images. We highly recommend Sharp Impressions Photo to any couple looking for talented photographers who will help make your wedding day unforgettable.

Hi there! I’m Sharon! I am a long-time professional photographer, a former award-winning photojournalist, and an official photographer for the Canadian Embassy. I love photographing weddings and I provide beautiful, bold, and romantic images for my couples to treasure forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a wonderful experience with Sharon Natoli as our wedding photographer. She is extremely talented and brought her extensive photojournalism experience, professionalism, and positive energy to capture our wedding day. She handled a rainy outdoor ceremony situation with ease, taking the weather as an opportunity for some unique and memorable shots. She also stuck with us after the reception as the sun came out to catch some incredible light soaked moments. Throughout the day, she was amazing with our guests, keeping things moving swiftly so folks didn't get too cold, and helping some of the more camera-shy (including me, the bride) feel at ease. I love that she took the time to meet with us beforehand and get to know us, learn more about our family and guests, understand our style preferences, as well as offer some expert advice on how the day could go. She also walked us through the final photos and gave us some behind the scenes technical insight which was a really nice way to revisit the day. It's clear she is passionate about photography and loves what she does. Her enthusiasm is contagious and we're so glad she was the one to photograph our day. We are absolutely thrilled with our photos and highly recommend Sharon Natoli to any DC/Maryland area couples!

Lindsay and Greg have been a pleasure to work with so far! My fiance had them there to photograph our proposal and I liked them so much that we booked them for our engagement and wedding sessions as well. We are both slower to open up type of people and Lindsay and Greg have been really easy to talk to. We didn't feel awkward and were comfortable with them. We have some beautiful photos and everyone has complimented their work. I can be anxious, but Lindsay has been really easy to work with. She has a calm presence and I really like how she's set me at ease! Lindsay and Greg targeted their work to match things that we wanted to incorporate. I shared some Pinterest images with Lindsay and she saved them and actually posed us in them during our session! I offhandedly mentioned one of my favorite shots from our proposal during our engagement shoot and they came up with something so cute to do that matched the vibe of that right then and there! I also was honest with Lindsay about poses I didn't like up front and she made sure to pose me in a way that I felt like allowed me to be more confident and comfortable. We can't wait to see what they can do at our wedding!

Hey, I'm Chris! Dog-lover, latte-lover, gym-lover, and cookie-lover I justify the cookies by going to the gym. One of my life goals is to have enough dogs (dachshunds and corgis) to create a sled team. I will use this sled team to pull myself around while shooting your wedding. I’m joking, unless you really want me to, in which maybe WE should get married.

Awarded Best of Zola
When reviewing my wedding photos that Chris did, I am continuously grateful that we chose him to do our photography. Not only did the photos come out spectacular, he made us so comfortable throughout the process. Anyone seeing his finished product can see that he’s talented. Yet one misses in the photos is the man behind the camera who truly went out of his way to be a solid rock for a day that can be chaotic at times. He really felt like family during our wedding day and so seamlessly fit in with all our friends and family invited. I would, and have, recommended him again and again to other couples getting married. You won’t regret it.

I started working as a photographer because I'm passionate about helping people showcase who they are and what they have to offer. I work to remove myself from the equation and let my clients take the spotlight. It's thrilling to jump into a session and come out on the other side having learned beautiful new things about a person. When behind the camera I'm coaching you ever step of the way - helping you feel comfortable enough to let your true self emerge.

We have gotten sooo many compliments on the photos from Michael's photography!!! I can't stop looking at them over and over, and sharing with everyone. We are having a hard time choosing which to frame! We had such a great experience overall. The team took great attention to align our expectations, timeline and vision ahead of the wedding with multiple touch points. The team pre viewed the venue to ensure they were aware of the space. The day of the team came organized and enthusiastic. They had creative ideas for multiple spaces, for couples photos, wedding party, and even a great first look for my dad and I that brough us to tears! We had such a blast at the reception and the photographers were right in the mix having fun to capture every dance move! Before we were even back from our honeymoon the team had edited many photos for us to share! The full final product was delivered by timeline throughout the day and easily order format to share with friends and family! Thanks sooooo much for helping us remember the day perfectly! Sooo great!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Michelle as our wedding photographer. She captured not only the two days of our wedding weekend but also our bridal shower and engagement shoot, and we are beyond thrilled with the results. Michelle’s kindness and thoughtfulness shone through in every interaction. She truly cared about us and always put us first, making sure we felt comfortable and supported throughout the process. From the very first meeting, Michelle embraced our untraditional approach to our nuptials and celebrations! She took the time to understand our vision and priorities, and her attention to detail ensured that every moment we cared about was perfectly documented. Her professionalism and skill are unmatched. Whether it was the candid emotions of the bridal shower, the intimacy of our engagement shoot, or the grand celebrations of our wedding weekend, Michelle captured it all with a keen eye and an artistic touch. The photos are stunning and timeless, each one telling a story and bringing us right back to those special moments. What truly set Michelle apart was her ability to seamlessly blend into the events while still capturing every important detail. She managed to be everywhere at once without being intrusive, and her calm demeanor was a steadying presence during such a busy time. She was a safe face/person that weekend for sure! We are so grateful to Michelle for not only her work but the friendship we have created with her! She gave us memories we will treasure for a lifetime, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also genuinely cares about her clients, Michelle is the one!

Working with J. Roman was a dream! We won an engagement shoot with J and quickly knew we wanted him as our wedding photographer after an engagement shoot that was so fun! He delivered hundreds of photos that we loved. His range is amazing; from moody and dark, to vintage and chic, to glam and bright, all the versions of photography you crave for your big day, J covers! We were open to J's eye when it came to moments and he worked seamlessly on our big day--him or his team never felt intrusive to a special moment. The raw emotion of the wedding day was captured so beautifully-we get to relive such a momentous day over and over through his art. He was incredibly professional, was very easy to work with and was so helpful in planning. J has delivered amazing results: 2500 photos for our wedding, which we received in exactly 3 weeks. We received the first short video within 4 weeks of the wedding as well for his photography and videography package. So grateful that we booked with J Roman and would recommend his over and over again!

I never thought I would be a wedding photographer. I started my professional career in Boulder, Colorado, riding on the backs of motorcycles, chasing professional cyclists through winding roads and epic climbs. I never thought I would find another career as exhilarating and rewarding but I was wrong. I photographed weddings in Colorado, but it wasn’t until moving East, to Charlottesville, Virginia, that I fell in love with them. I love all of the beauty of the flowers and the pretty clothing, but what I love most is documenting the love between the two of you, and the complete joy of your best day ever. We celebrate all couples!

Beth is absolutely wonderful! From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, every single picture is beautiful. Not only is Beth an amazing photographer, she is an amazing person! We enjoyed getting to know her and she will be a lifelong friend. We will remember our wedding forever thanks to her photography.

I love to tell the story of a wedding day and capture all the forms of love found there. It’s definitely not an “I have to go to work today” career. For me … it’s “I GET to go to work each day!" There is nothing I would rather do more than have my camera in my hands & working with wonderful people.

Sharon and her second shooter, Hannah, are simply the best. Sharon's professionalism, creativity, customer service and commitment to detail were unmatched during the planning process and everything came to a beautiful crescendo on our wedding day in Charlotte, NC in June 2024.

We were so impressed by 505 media and their quick responses and quality of photo/video they took! From the initial phases of planning, they were quick to respond and eager to help in the planning process of making sure timelines were manageable. They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures! You don’t hear that often from photography companies! We also watched our wedding video trailer today (which was delivered in less than 2 months from our wedding) and can’t stop watching it!

Welcome to Just a Present Visual Studio, where every moment is crafted into a lasting memory. I'm based in the DMV area, specializing in capturing life's most cherished moments through a unique lens. Follow my journey and let’s create something beautiful together.

Xiao was the photographer for our wedding ceremony, held in a beautiful natural setting by a lake in a regional park in Maryland. Her professionalism and dedication truly shone throughout the entire event. During the ceremony, she captured all the key moments with an incredible eye for detail, ensuring we have stunning memories to cherish. After the vows and ring exchange, Xiao patiently photographed us with our friends and family, taking her time to ensure everyone looked their best. She even went the extra mile, offering creative suggestions for poses and making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Right after, she did a solo session with my wife, producing some truly breathtaking photos. What impressed me the most was Xiao’s commitment and quick turnaround. That same evening, she began editing and sent us a preview batch of photos, which allowed us to immediately share them with loved ones. Over the following days, she continued to work on the photos, sending us additional beautiful images in batches. We couldn’t be happier with the quality of her work, and we are so grateful for her thoughtful and professional approach. We highly recommend her, and we wish her and her photography business continued success!

Bring on all the joy, laughter, tears, letting go and holding close. I want to capture these connections, so that you can have photos to hold in your hand and remind you what it felt like the day you were married. You deserve to celebrate without feeling as if you are on a daylong photoshoot — I will help you to really live your wedding day. 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!

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients. I consider myself a storyteller and love capturing the little details, the half-smiles, and the simple motions. For me, it is about seeing the real, the lovely, and the messy moments, the everyday magic that tells the stories of our lives. Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

I can’t even begin to say how spectacular Eugene’s work is. He puts so much love into his craft and creates stunning photo stories for a variety of occasions. Eugene goes above and beyond to get unique and beautiful shots. He was an absolute dream to work with! I instantly felt a genuine connection with him—it felt like we were friends for years. Eugene made my husband and I feel confident throughout the entire process! If you want top-quality, thoughtful work, go to Eugene! He truly loves his work, and it shows. Eugene was everything you want in a photographer—easy to work with, very responsive, with great ideas, and of course, extraordinary photos! We were so lucky to find him and are happy with how our photos turned out. I would recommend Eugene to anyone. If you want an experienced photographer who can capture emotional, beautiful, breathtaking photos, Eugene is your guy. You will NOT be disappointed.

Bethany is AMAZING! Let me start by saying she also did our engagement pictures and they turned out fantastic! It was such a hot and humid day, I was worried I'd look awful in the pictures, but Bethany made it look like we weren't even hot! We knew we HAD to have her four our wedding- when we picked our date she was the 2nd vendor to know, besides the venue, so we could be sure we had her; I was fully prepared to change my date if she couldn't do our day. She was always super professional and helpful with any communication or questions! She put me, a super self conscious, plus sized bride at ease. Our pictures look amazing! Everybody always talks about what beautiful shots they are when they seem them! We've recommended her for literally everything! I will hands down always pick Bethany!

Are you tired of scrolling through wedding websites full of photos of shoes/calligraphy/earrings/etc. and wondering where the people are? Do you love moments more than things? If yes, you're in the right place. Forget about the table settings, instead embrace spontaneous joy and honest, natural moments.

Darcy was a pleasure to work with! She was so accommodating and informative throughout the process. I did a lot of our wedding planning at the last minute and I have never had professional photos done so I wasn't exactly sure what to expect but Darcy walked me through the wedding day and made sure that we had a clear plan. She was also very patient with all of my last minute changes to the schedule. I originally reached out to Darcy because I loved the style of her photos and I was incredibly pleased when I saw our photos. I would definitely reach out to her for future events/family photos!

Tara Beth Photography is a place of inclusion, empathy, intimacy, and care. From the first email, I take care with my clients. Considering them all unique, and with that, their stories being unique. We talk about how you want to be captured, how your love should be captured. We go over insecurities, love stories, and anything else that may come up during our Zoom calls. I don't want to be just someone you hire. I want to be considered someone you trust, and enjoy to have around!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

I have been a photographer since 2017 and have shot over 200 weddings to date. If you’re looking to add an ally to your wedding team you are in the right place! We will provide consultation to avoid the common wedding day hiccups. Whether it’s running behind schedule or securing the best available locations for your photos. Have you ever modeled before? Probably not, and that’s ok!! We have successfully worked with all personality types. Our goal is to bring your vision to life. No two weddings should be the same. We will approach your special day as a huge collaborative effort.

Manai was so communicative. We started with a nearly 2 hour video call. He was so good about making sure he understood our vision. We had several emails afterwards to get his help with our schedule and other vendors. We had a final 1 hour call just before the wedding to finalize all of the details. 10 out of 10. Manai knows his stuff and it felt good on the day of my wedding realizing we hired the right person. He pretty much knew everything that was happening even before it happened. I'm a pretty anxious person so it was nice having someone to kind of help guide the day along. Thank you Manai! Wishing you so much success. You deserve it!
