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.

I've worked with this photographer a few times and each time it has been like a fairy-tale shoot. An ordinary couple, set in a scene to make heads turn as they walk by. It's truly a magical experience. And then getting the pictures back is a whole set of feelings. My shoots have been with my boyfriend and with each picture I recieved back, you could truly see the love and energy captured in time. Forever cherished memories.

Unique perspective, your satisfaction, and fun. Isn't that what its all about? I am an extrovert and love meeting new people and making friends. The best photos come out when you are relaxed and being yourself. An exceptional photographer, with great photoshop skills. I can make you look like sitting on Mars if thats what you want...haha Seriously, I can create your photos for the look you want, the colors, the light, the smile, the effort it takes to satisfy you and make you love what you are investing your time and money in. Lets talk and get what you want for the best of time for you and me. Lets have fun while doing it.

We are Victoria & Hunter, a married photography & videography duo. Our style is simple and organic, capturing your real emotions & personalities in artful imagery. We currently call Maryland home and love traveling across states, borders, & seas to tell your story. We believe that life is best enjoyed with others, so drop us a line and let’s be friends! *Please contact us directly through our website.

I've grown up in the wedding industry, spending over 20 years learning the ins and outs. Victoria is the absolute most empathetic, kind, thoughtful person I've met in the wedding industry and quite possibly on this earth. From the beginning, she was helpful, sincere, and hysterical as we planned out our engagement shoot and wedding logistics. Whether it a package of homemade soap or inspiration emails, she was a more personalized and wonderful version of Pinterest. When it came to our wedding day, she was able to navigate my large, blended family, nail every shot IN THE RAIN, all the while telling corny jokes, and dancing the night away. I truly felt like I had an old friend with me throughout the entire experience. Her second shooter, Hunter, is her photography (and real life! ) soulmate. As a married couple, they work so incredibly well together and are able to capture the most beautiful moments. Hunter was amazing with the groomsmen, making everyone feel comfortable and natural. Plus, he has great taste in music! Victoria sent our entire wedding pictures, completely edited, in record time. She knows how to capture and highlight every moment genuinely. Finally, a few months after our wedding, my younger brother passed away. Victoria dug up some old photos of him and sent them our way. I've never met anyone as thoughtful as her, truly. This was the easiest and best decision of my wedding planning. Forever thankful for you, Victoria!

Ivy & Quartz Photography

Hi! I'm Nina and I run Ivy & Quartz photography! I shot my first wedding in 2013, but my journey with photography began long before that. When I was about 10 years old, my dad gave me a camera and I quickly became obsessed. My intrigue continued to grow over the years and I went on to earn my BA in Studio Art , Photography, from the University of Virginia. After graduating I worked as a portrait photographer and decided to pursue and earn my MFA in Imaging Arts from the Rochester Institute of Technology.

Awarded Best of Zola
After friends shared a photo of my then fiance and me at their own wedding, we hired the photographer who took it. This was Nina! That one photo inspired us to review the gallery of their entire wedding and then her portfolio and we were blown away. 7 months later our own wedding day arrived. My husband and I are the type of people who are wildly present and constantly forget to take photographs of our life together. We knew we wanted to capture this day without the photography becoming a chore or hindering our ability to do what we do best and enjoy our time. Nina was able to provide just that and was incredible (as was the second photographer she worked with for our big day). Nina seamlessly handled all the chaotic moments and pre-ceremony stress of the very emotional bride (me) in stride! With very little direction she navigated all aspects of a wedding day with absolute poise and grace. I cannot thank her enough for taking on such leadership and just GETTING IT DONE! Nina captured all the big and tiny pieces that go into a wedding and I felt her photo choices, angles, and poses perfectly captured the essence of me and my husband's personalities. At every avenue Nina was a professional, personable, and I never expected I could be so satisfied with a collection of photographs. THANK YOU SO MUCH NINA.

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. 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.

Darcy and team are so responsive, professional and reasonable in pricing. Honest, quick to answer and you do not even realize they are at the venue. Links are easy to share, beautiful and exactly what we were looking for. You can pick your music or packages or choose not to. Def recommend and would use again. Way less expensive than so many other companies we looked at also. My daughter is so happy with the video and OLAS, they are even editing the highlights video to add cherished grandparents to the original send (our mistake for not letting them know).

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Lacie made our wedding day the weeks leading up to it so enjoyable and stress free. As I stressed about our timeline for the day, Lacie sat down with me and figured every detail out & made it seem so easy & I was so happy with everything we discussed! On the day of, she arrived early to take pictures of the girls getting ready & had the help of her husband to take pictures of the boys, and they were both so amazing. They were so present and fun to work with at the wedding, all while making sure we stayed on schedule! We even got some sneak peeks back like the next day, which made us so happy. They exceeded our expectations with the high quality of pictures they were able to get. They’re both simply amazing and such kind & fun people, we can’t thank them enough for making our day perfect! They fit in so well with all of our crazy family and friends, it seemed like they were just there to enjoy our day with us! I highly recommend them for ANY picture needs:)

When I am not behind the camera or editing photos, I enjoy short Uber rides to bottomless brunch on the weekends; right now mimosas and I kinda have a thing going on! I have a special relationship with bourbon and FIRMLY believe in putting food on the grill during late afternoons should be the norm. I am blessed to be married to the happiest person on earth (I am so serious), who just happens to double as my favorite person. She keeps me grounded and never fails to remind me how great she is.

Where do I start. I was really hesitant to go with a photographer I didn't know, as I was set on someone else for years, but they didn't have my date. But let me say, I am so happy I found Andrea as she exceeded my expectations. The first meeting with Andrea, I had such a peace about having her photograph our special day. She made the entire process so seamless and she was extremely professional and communicative. Our engagement session she made me and my husband feel so comfortable - my husband was nervous as we have never been photographed and he literally said "wow, she made that so easy, I'm so glad we went with her" and I 100% agreed, we knew we made the right decision. The day of our wedding Andrea was running all over to get all the perfect pictures and my sister in law (also a photographer) noted how amazing of a photographer she was just how she went about our wedding day. Pictures are something that you will have for a lifetime - go with Andrea!!!!

Sarah is so fun to work with, she is quick, offers great direction, and makes sure you get the photos you want AND gets you back to the party. The BIGGEST flex though is the fact that I got married on May 25 and I had sneak preview pictures sent to me by May 28 and the first batch available in an online gallery on June 4! The photos are beautiful, she really captured the drama of our venue and the vibrant colors we chose for flowers and decor!

We are a passionate and creative husband and wife photography team who have a serious soft spot for documenting love stories. The big and little moments in life matter and we believe that everyone deserves to have photos that remind them of all the joy, tears, laughter, and adventure that surrounded them on the most momentous days in their life.

Awarded Best of Zola
"When you look back at these photos years from now, what do you want to feel?" was the question that Lindsay asked my then-fiancée and me when we first met to talk about wedding photography. We said that we wanted to be transported back to that moment, and remember what it felt like being there on that day. Looking at the photos now, this is EXACTLY what Lindsay and her husband/co-photographer Greg delivered. Lindsay's photos go so far beyond just documenting what happened - they capture the joy, the emotion, the tears, the excitement. Using some kind of camera magic, she captures the cozy mood lighting of our venue exactly as it felt, the sparkle of the lights and the dark wood of the bar, no overexposed flashes or dimness at all. Our formal photos are serene and gorgeous, our dancing photos are chaotic and full of light and energy. I don't know how she caught it all, because I hardly remember seeing her on the day, but she managed to capture even the little accidental unscripted moments that might have otherwise been lost to time. The dash from the car to the venue, through the rain umbrella in hand, is now one of my favorite memories AND favorite photos, all thanks to Lindsay. On top of all that, Lindsay and Greg are just lovely people. They immediately made us feel comfortable, and quickly got us past the inherent goofiness of posing for photos. They were responsive, communicative, so easy to work with, and made sure they understood our vision for the day so they could take photos that captured it. We absolutely could not be happier with our wedding photos and wholeheartedly recommend Lindsay King Photography.

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.

Kay is absolutely incredible. She’s the sweetest person I’ve ever met and you can tell she just love to capture your memories in the most beautiful way she can. She’s not just some photographer telling you to say cheese and move it along, she’s going to be your friend by the end! We still communicate via social media and she’s just so relatable and kind. I can’t stress enough how huge her heart is and you can tell by the work she puts out. My wedding and engagement photos were stunning. She captured everything from candid to posed with absolute perfection. I got married almost 3 years ago and I still am obsessed with my wedding photos. You will not regret booking Kay. So why are you still reading reviews??? Just BOOK HER ALREADY!!

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.

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 an absolute pleasure to work with and we LOVE our photos. She truly captured the emotions of the day and the essence of all the people we love the most. Any time i look at our photos, i find myself involuntarily smiling. She captured the classic posed photos AND the precious in-between moments where people are being their most authentic selves (the face my dad makes when he's really intently listening, the hand gestures my mom uses when she's explaining something and can't find the right words, the face my mother in law makes when she's cracking herself up, the face my father in law makes right before the tears fall, and so so many more). Not ONLY are her photos amazing, but she made us feel so relaxed on the day-of. Her style is totally unobtrusive, which is just what we needed. Darcy got such amazing photos of all our guests we put 4x6" prints in our thank you cards and people were SO appreciative. She's on fridges across America. Comments we've gotten in response to Darcy's photos: "WOW your photographer is phenomenal", "this is the best photo of us in existence", "you guys look so happy!", "I feel like the photographer really captured your personalities" If capturing joy is important to you, hire Darcy. My only regret is getting her for 7 hours instead of 9.

Greetings, I am Tigran Markaryan, accompanied by my wife, Evgeniya. As an Armenian immigrant who relocated to the United States nearly two decades ago, I have dedicated myself to the art of wedding photography since 2011, having beautifully documented over 300 celebrations. Recently, I bid farewell to Calypso Digital and embraced a fresh chapter with Daydream Romance. My passion lies in the photojournalistic approach, as I find immense joy in capturing the essence and energy of people. As I explore more destination weddings, I still mainly work in the DMV area. Stop by at out Insta and reach out with any questions ❤

Tigran was so easy to work with from day one! He took our engagement photos and wedding photos and they all turned out so beautifully. He had a wonderful vision for each moment and was so lovely to all of our friends and family. He is a true artist and we couldn’t recommend highly enough!

If I could rate Tre higher I would. We hired him for our wedding and we loved him. He was honest and direct, not to mention he knew how to have fun! He adapted to all the craziness we threw at him (cat, moon bounce, basketball, etc.). 10/10, stellar, amazing, (give me a second as I look in the thesaurus to find more synonyms). Definitely looking forward to hiring him for more events in the future!

*PLEASE VISIT MY WEBSITE TO SUBMIT A CONTACT FORM AT WWW.CANDYNOGALES.COM.* MY WEBSITE IS UNDER MY PHOTO ON MY ZOLA PAGE. Hi, I'm Candy! I love capturing all of the raw, beautiful moments as they naturally unfold on your wedding day. Candids are some of my favorite photos! Don't worry; I will most definitely get those posed family photos as well, but for most of the day, I'm there to document it all as it naturally happens. I would love to chat with you more about your wedding plans and how I can be a part of documenting it!

Maria is super easy to work with and learn from all while making the process run smoothy and efficiently. Her work is amazing and I know a big part of that is due to how much genuine fun people have while shooting with her; she captures those memories beautifully.

Kelly Loss Photography

  • Serves Riva, MD

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!

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Riva, MD

I am a Documentary Wedding Photographer who captures Candid and Natural moments! I like to blend right into your day and clients describe me as calm, cool and personable. I take a variety of photos but make sure I’m not noticed while I move around. I see my purpose as preserving moments. My favorite feedback is that I captured moments that the couple didn’t see. Most importantly, I’m here for you! That might mean directing your family and keeping everything under control. My goal is to put you at ease and make you feel comfortable throughout the whole process.

Awarded Best of Zola
We picked Konrad because his candid shots were absolutely outstanding. Neither one of us really cared too much about formal portraits, so we thought he'd be perfect. Little did we know how skilled he is at turning even boring staged photos into really beautiful shots. He kept us relaxed, directed us well, and was super efficient. We barely noticed him throughout the event as he snuck around taking pictures and the shots did not disappoint. Our friends remarked that he was truly all over the place, doing the work of multiple people. If you want someone who will respect what you're looking for and produce works of art for a reasonable price, Konrad is the way to go.

Hi, I'm Lee. Dreamer, Romantic, Storyteller... Growing up I didn't get it, I can tell you there is more than one photo of me with a bored and anxious look on my face. I can still hear my dad, who has now passed, say "if you don't sit still we will be here all day". As an adult, I now get it. Not being able to talk with my dad everyday or ask for advice, I'm so thankful to have albums full of family photos to hold in my hands. Fast forward to today as a DC wedding photographer, I want this for you. Nothing gives me more pleasure than capturing wedding photos that you and your family will cherish for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
Honestly one of the many memorable moments of our wedding were the moments we shared with Lee our photographer! The final pictures were stunning and captured all the moments Brian and I wanted. On top of that, Lee was there to calm my nerves! The smiles and the waves he’d give us assured me I was in good hands. The bridal party and guests loved him! He included a portable photo booth (not those giant ones that were in the way) which had the options for gifs or regular photos and were sent directly to our guests phones! Everyone loved it!! Lee is fun, timely, organized, determined and focused to get the best shot and supports his brides and grooms! He is the best and highly recommend Lee!

Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

I'm a lifestyle photographer with a passion for capturing your keepsake moments! With work experience in event management, I understand the behind the scenes of weddings & I am fully equipped to deliver you fun AND professional service on your big day. I've captured weddings, engagements (hello crouching behind a tree to capture the proposal moment), and so much more. What I love about weddings is witnessing such happiness and love. I spend my time capturing the glances between couples, Grandma's smile, and your special details. If you want to see where attention to detail, professionalism, lightheartedness & sarcasm meet...let's chat!

Tori was such a pleasure to work with. Her artistry shines through our wedding photos and she was incredibly efficient and professional throughout the process. When our wedding timeline went sideways due to another vendor's mistake, Tori was there to move things along with order and efficiency. She helped organize my big family quickly for wedding photos and captured our organic moments so beautifully that I prefer them to our posed shots. Because of Tori, our timeline got right back on track without having to sacrifice the quality of our photographs! She even calmed me in a moment of tears/panic and assured me "We are not doing a photoshoot. We are capturing your wedding day". This was just what I needed to hear in that moment in order to help me shift focus to what truly mattered that day. Tori's photos are beautiful, natural, artistic, and creative; and she is even more than that. Thank you, Tori for making our wedding day so special and capturing it perfectly :)
