Jennifer Syl Photography

  • Serves Riderwood, MD

On your wedding day you will catch me buzzing around to capture all the perfect angles, to fixing your hair, & if necessary getting on the dance floor to help the shyest of crowds boost some confidence! Whatever it takes to keep the day moving as flawless as you, I am here for it!

Working with Jen was the best experience and we feel so lucky to be a part of her absolute ART. I (bride) was struggling looking for a photographer and asked my cousin (bridesmaid), a photographer herself, for help. She got to work and when she sent me Jen’s website, she said, “All of the images are gorgeous.” I had an inkling we were on to something as I filled out Jen’s very thoughtful inquiry form. Her response had such genuine and positive energy, and the rest is history! Because we are based in Brooklyn, we considered passing on the included engagement session but, to use Jen’s words, she “respectfully insisted” on coming to Brooklyn. My groom was explicitly comfortable having his photo taken, but quickly warmed up to the idea. Jen collaborated so thoughtfully with us and we chose a few locations meaningful to us as well as some classic shots on the Brooklyn Bridge. It was probably one of my favorite “dates” ever and Jen was the perfect third wheel. We even asked her along to our weekly Drag Bingo ritual after. The photos themselves (no surprise!) were incredible. We loved them and so did everyone else! They were personal and beautiful and cool, and we had a blast. I frequently commented over the course of wedding planning that the one thing we weren’t worried about was photography. We even used engagement photos as decor at the wedding and on matchbox favors! Jen was so supportive and interactive with us, both formally (more thoughtful forms!) and informally (little check-ins and chats over text/DM). We experienced a few challenges with our wedding venue over the course of planning, but there was so much comfort in knowing that besides enjoying a day with our people, we would have fantastic pictures because of Jen! We did first look and some of our photos before the ceremony and Jen got us in the groove for sure. It was really grounding to have that time together and just be able to trust fully that Jen would capture and deliver our dream photographs. Jen is a total pro and helped keep us to the schedule, but also kept us relaxed and enjoying the time. We were honestly sad to say goodbye at the end of the night, but she has a standing invite to Brooklyn. She sent us a few pictures just hours after the reception and a full sneak peek in under a week. We are, of course, THRILLED with the photos. We will treasure these captured moments forever!! We look forward to enthusiastically recommending Jen at every opportunity. We will always be grateful to have worked with such a talented, dedicated, thoughtful photographer who is also just a really good time. I could go on and on, but TLDR: Book Jennifer Syl Photography yesterday. We love you, Jen!!

James Ton Photography

  • Serves Riderwood, MD

You just have to live and life will give you pictures. The first time I saw the photographs of Henri Cartier-Bresson, I knew photography was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life! His mantra is exactly how I approach wedding photography. I want you two as a couple to enjoy your wedding, having the best day of your lives, and amazing photographs will come from your joy.

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in the DC area, stop and boom James immediately! We really liked James from the first time we saw his portfolio online, and felt very confident after our first call with him that we had found the photographer we wanted to work with. He was really thoughtful in sending us sample galleries from weddings he had done that were in similar venues to ours. We could not have made a better choice! He was good at communicating and working out details prior to the wedding, even scouting out potential locations in case of rain in the forecast. On the day itself he was fantastic and provided just the right amount of direction to get good shots while putting everyone at ease. He also captured all the special candid moments and I still don’t know how he managed to get so many different angles and shots during the ceremony. We also absolutely loved the video slideshow he did with our speeches and the photos. We’ll always treasure the stunning photos we have from our wedding and couldn’t recommend James more highly!

Rudney Novaes Photography

  • Serves Riderwood, MD

Hi there, I'm Rudney Novaes — And I’ve been intrigued by photography since I was a boy. In youth I discovered a fascination with film when my Father left behind a vintage camera. I was amazed by the mechanics of the time-worn device, in awe of its capability to freeze moments in time. Today, I’m an editorial and wedding photographer capturing stories filled with feeling, and my love of light and film continues to shape my craft. I’m passionate about sharing the knowledge I’ve chased since childhood with aspiring creatives and seasoned professionals alike, and I believe wholeheartedly that there’s always more to learn from one another.

I knew I wanted Rudney to be my wedding photographer before I even had a date or venue. It was love at first sight with his work, and he never disappointed. Rudney was so easy to work with, he is flexible, dedicated, open to your ideas while also giving suggestions to make sure everything turns out perfect. The day of the wedding was effortless, I did not have to worry about what my photographer was doing because I trusted and was confident in Rudney's ability to deliver what I envisioned. His team of professionals were also the best! I will forever treasure my wedding photos, they came out so beautiful and perfectly captured my amazing day. Rudney's work is exquisite, he is truly a master in his art!

The biggest failure at the end of our lives would be trading our intimacy for our fears in light of playing it safe. This season of your lives may make you feel unwelcome and even excluded as dive into your wedding research. Listen to this: No matter where you’re from, who you pray to, what you weigh, who you voted for or who you love; who you are and who you’re becoming as individuals and as a whole are what matter to us most. We're a team of people loving, color-addicted, and moment-captured wedding photographers based in DC with over 300 weddings of experience. We've shot stories in over 20 countries and 30 states.

Goksydephotography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Starts at $3,250
  • Serves Riderwood, MD

Photography has always been in the family; my mum has always been fascinated by pictures and she ensured she had a camera (small ones) as often as possible. My professional journey, however, started over 4 years ago. I started by photographing my wife for her blog, next, the kiddos, and then moved on to events, weddings, and studio photography. It has been an amazing journey, constantly learning, improving, and guaranteeing every client gets the “Goksyde Experience”.

I will choose Goksydephotography over and over again personally and professionally as an event producer. There just aren’t enough words to possibly describe how amazing each and every photo that Goke snaps. He has a magical way of finding the perfect angle, lighting and of course expressions.

  • Serves Riderwood, MD

We are an event planning company based in Northern Virginia right outside of the Washington D.C. metropolitan area. The company was founded in 2021, but the concept started back in 2015. This business is beginning to take off, and would love to make that possible.

Cynthia is the absolute best! She is a close friend, but she offered her services after I realized how much there goes into wedding planning without my fiancé at the time, as he's in the military. He was very much "Cynthia is my eyes and ears," and Cynthia kept him up to speed on experiences and other perspectives when it came to decisions. She was there when I picked out my wedding dress, helped find the wedding cake and rehearsal dinner venue, and helped create a vision board for my flowers and the decorations at the venue. I had gotten most of my vendors by the time I contacted her, but the last few were tricky, and Cynthia did the research to show me all the other viable options we could pick from. Cynthia will be there tooth and nail to comb through the contracts and make sure we were set with our deadlines. She was there to support and defend me with the vendors I did not have great experiences with and ensured everything went smoothly. I would recommend her to anyone having a significant event like a wedding, proposal, or shower, as Cynthia was able to do it all: planning, coordinating, budgeting, and all. Joseph and I couldn't have been able to accomplish all we did without her help, and we are so glad to be able to call her our friend.

Our Draped in White family is committed to connecting with you on a very personal level. Our goal is to create a perfectly crafted wedding film that shows your love story in an artistic way. Many couples feel disconnected from the wedding film process so we allow you to choose the different aspects of your wedding film; everything from music and color schemes all the way to filming styles and editing theme.

Draped in White is THE best video brand we have ever worked with. From a photographer's and past bride's perspective, I just can't recommend them enough. They are extremely professional, yet personable. And to say they are incredibly talented does not even begin to describe the quality of work they provide. They are by far the best in the market in my opinion.

M. Carter Photography LLC

  • Serves Riderwood, MD

Hey there, folks! So, I've been known to dabble in this little thing called photography, or as some like to eloquently put it, playing around with a "time-freezing device" also known as a camera. But don't worry, I promise I actually know how to use one! My journey into the world of photography began back in my college days. I spent countless nights diving into the world of photography, learning everything I could find on YouTube Academy of Photography (if that were an actual thing). If you're in the market for a self-taught, hard-working, humble photographer, then I think I'm your person.

Everything about working with Marcus is LOVELY — from the first phone call, to our engagement photos, to our elopement photos. I was initially anxious about hiring a photographer, especially since (1) I had no idea where to start and (2) we were eloping so these were going to be *the* thing to mark the day. He was my first phone call and within 5 minutes of talking to him I was sold. I only had two broad (vague) ideas for what I wanted and he took them and turned them into plans I could be excited about. Ultimately, our engagement photos involved a last minute location change and our elopement photos ended up needing a schedule change. Marcus was nothing but responsive and encouraging through everything. He was ready with new ideas and managed to keep me excited when I'd have otherwise been really stressed. I’m not sure anyone else would have been so flexible while also staying so warm and kind. And of course, the photos are gorgeous. He manages to talk to you and make you laugh and feel like you’re just hanging out while also capturing a thousand (literally) photos. The last time my husband or I had professional photos taken we were probably in high school, but Marcus was a pro at making us feel comfortable. His eye is great and he sees things we’d have never thought of, to beautiful results. I’ve already told my husband when we need photos for anything in the future, we’re calling Marcus. 12/10 recommend. Giving him glowing reviews is going to be my new hobby, and if you work with him it’ll be yours too.

Based in Richmond, VA, Thibecs Production is a videography business that creates moving wedding films for couples in the Old Dominion State. This accomplished service is led by husband-and-wife duo Thiago and Becca, a talented team that delights in producing cinematic heirlooms. The pair specializes in a range of film styles and can seamlessly modify their techniques to ensure that the end-product exceeds your expectations.

They are wonderful. A husband and wife duo that knows what they are doing! I have a unique story though.. My husband and I had to move our wedding date from a Tuesday to a Saturday. Instead of having ThiBecs come to the wedding day, we met at Shenandoah Valley and took pictures and videos without the distraction of the big day… and OH MY the pics and vids are gorgeous! They are so sweet and great at their job! It was just us and them. Beautiful. 100% recommend.

MFields Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Serves Riderwood, MD

After my first year of college studying music, I decided to take the business route. I worked for several Fortune 500 businesses and even some start-ups. Photography initially started as a hobby but it slowly became a passion as I developed a growing desire to serve others instead of quarterly sales goals. Studying various genres of photography allowed me to discover wedding & portrait photography - and the rest is history! From Washington DC to your destination event, my specialties include weddings, engagement sessions, and portrait photography.

Prior to finding out about MFields Photography, I was very frustrated with the process of booking a wedding photographer. So much so that by chance I was venting to my dental hygienist about my lackluster experience of finding a wedding photographer to capture one of the most beautiful moments of my life. Luckily she understood my dilemma since she was a newlywed. She told me all about MFields Photography and how great he was to work with. After my appointment she showed me her wedding pictures and I was SOLD. I called Myron the next day and he been making my role as a bride easy ever since. Myron is a valuable resource to have on your wedding team. Not only is he a great photographer, but he is well respected in his field. He also connected us to other reputable wedding professionals that helped us bring the magic for our wedding day. We are beyond grateful.
