I'm a laid back, upbeat and silly (some might say incredibly funny, but whatever) person with a penchant for making everyone feel like an old friend. I enjoy being with people so my enthusiasm and joy on your wedding day is genuine! The greatest compliment I receive from couples again and again is that they feel so comfortable with me that taking photos wasn't stressful, in fact, it was fun! Your wedding day should be enjoyable and stress free; My goal is to make that happen as a team with you and all your other vendors, because you deserve nothing less than an awesome wedding day.

“Rachel is so great to work with! Her fun personality always keeps the day moving smoothly with a laugh and a kind heart. Rachel cares about her clients comfort, always there to go the extra mile for what they need, whether it's a drink, a cooling fan, or a reminder of how amazing they look. I've enjoyed working with her as my second photographer and am always impressed with the creative moments she captures. Highly recommend!”

Serves Riva, MD

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.

“From the moment we met Jess, we knew she was our photographer, but not in the way that people say retrospectively. We were so excited after our meeting that we could barely wait until we got home to sign and tell her (we called out of joy) that she was going to be a part of our big day. She knew exactly what questions to ask to help us figure out what we wanted. We spent hours together at our engagement shoot without realizing how much time had passed because she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We can't recommend her more. When someone loves what they do, they shine, and as a result, you shine. That's what you're getting when you work with her. We couldn't be happier with the quality of her work, the insanely efficient communication, and to have spent the last year working with someone who is truly excited and passionate to make your experience perfect.”

Mikkel Paige Photography

Photographer
Classic style
Serves Riva, MD

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.

“Mikkel was more than just our photographer, she was a partner to us for the wedding as a whole! We had a destination wedding on the new Disney cruise ship, the Wish, and while it was an amazing time there were definitely challenges to planning a destination wedding at a brand new venue that we couldn't see until the wedding trip itself. Mikkel has a strong network of contacts in the industry that kept her informed of the ship and logistics and she ended up being more helpful to us than our Disney wedding coordinator! She checked in multiple times throughout our wedding planning on photography things such as the timeline, but also helped in providing her opinion on things like the bridesmaid dresses, the locations for the first look, and was generally helpful with her wealth of knowledge of Disney Cruise Line weddings to bounce ideas off of. Her pictures were INCREDIBLE! The quality, coloring, angles, lighting, everything about them is absolutely perfect. But most importantly, she is such a warm and happy person to work with that we felt incredibly comfortable posing in front of her for hours on end! We also had the luxury of her husband helping us a bit too and they were such a team, working together in the hot Bahamian sun quickly and effectively without even needing to direct each other most of the time to maximize how many pictures we could get before the sweat ruined our dress/suit/hair! Another attribute of Mikkel's that's worth mentioning is her flexibility. We took pictures with her the days before and after our wedding in addition to the big day, and our plan and timeline for the full weekend was completely in flux due to the chaos of our venue. If that caused issues for Mikkel, we never knew as she was upbeat and positive and leaned into every challenge that came our way. Honestly I could go on and on about her, she's exactly who we needed for our wedding and I am so grateful that we found her. If you are considering Mikkel, stop thinking about it and just book her - you won't regret it!”

She coordinated with us wonderfully and made many great suggestions. We met her in person for the first time at our engagement photo session and felt comfortable with her right away. She was very patient with me and understanding of my health/special needs. And during our wedding day she facilitated the day and kept us on schedule for photos.

“When we started talking about what we wanted out of a wedding, we decided an intimate ceremony was best for us. We wanted to find someone who could capture the little details of our day without the typical "posed" photos. We are so lucky to have come across Josie at Give. We had multiple Facetime conversations with her and from the beginning, we knew she would be great to work with. She was one of those people we just clicked with and immediately understood what we wanted: Her style of photography, her personality, the charitable donations, etc etc. The day of our wedding was super humid (yay Maryland in August), but she did not skip a beat and did not rush us from one point to another - we tried out some posed and "classic" photos but overall she got the "documentary/candid" styles we were looking for. We are so happy with all the photos she took and grateful to have such gorgeous memories to look back on!”

Owned by certified wedding planner Renee Coshin Coolbaugh, the company’s organizational skills are perfect for newly engaged couples or couples who have been planning for some time. Crafting memorable celebrations, RCC Weddings & Events strives to exceed your wedding day expectations!

“Renee is THE wedding planner - look no further!! From the jump, she took us under her wing and answered any and all questions we had, was extremely attentive, and made us feel comfortable and prepared. Having planned too many weddings to count, she really knows the industry and all the ins and outs of planning a wedding. She met with us multiple times leading up to the wedding, and always came prepared with outlines, itineraries, and details that we would have never thought of! She also is the sweetest and so easy to get along with. Truly felt like we had known her for years. With regards to communication, she was extremely responsive, and always kept us in the loop. As we got closer to the wedding, and things inevitably became more hectic, vendors would email us questions and before I could even think of a response, Renee had already replied and had the situation handled. I can’t tell you the amount of ease and stress relief Renee brought us. The weekend of the wedding, my husband and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Her team was quick and efficient and got things done. Our ceremony and reception set up was done exactly the way we had described and even exceeded expectations when we told her to use her creative liberties! I am the type to stress about details and worry about things running smoothly, but on our wedding day, I didn’t think twice about anything but enjoying the day. We knew Renee had it handled. If I thought of something last minute to bring up to Renee she would immediately say with ease, “we have it handled, don’t worry about a thing!!” I can’t emphasize how much that meant to us. My biggest advice to anyone planning a wedding would be to book a wedding planner and to get RENEE!!!! We will forever look back on our wedding knowing we, and everyone at our wedding, fully enjoyed every second and were not swept up in day-of tasks and duties. No one was stressed or worried about getting something done. People got to relax, party, and just enjoy themselves, because Renee had it handled.”

Bliss Photos is a Pennsylvania based Wedding Photographer servicing weddings in PA, MD, DC, NYC, and beyond! Bliss Photos is an inclusive wedding photographer that creates romantic & timeless photos with a journalistic approach. As a wedding photographer for 10+ years, my favorite photo to capture is when a couple is completely in their own world and not even aware of the camera. I strive for that photo EVERY time. Those photos are once in a lifetime photos and that's exactly what I'm all about - capturing the real you in that special moment. That is a gift that you will cherish for a lifetime and lifetimes after that.

“Thank you, Melissa, for our beautiful wedding photos! Melissa did an amazing job communicating with us, building a timeline, and wrangling family members for portraits on our wedding day. Having amazing photos of our wedding was very important to me and I am happy we trusted Bliss to provide them. The team was friendly, positive, and helpful and our photos are high quality. I also appreciate that we have a mixture of posed pictures and candid moments.”

Serves Riva, MD

I have been planning weddings and events for 15 years. After college, I worked as a meeting planner for several years, while also earning my International Wedding Planning Professional certification (IWPP). My love of special events is what convinced me to start my own business. I love working with clients to create their perfect vision. My goal is to take away the stress of the day so that my clients are able to enjoy themselves. I am able to help by suggesting venues and vendors, site visits and contracting, communicating and working with vendors, on-site coordination, setup, and post-event cleanup and follow-up.

“Diane was easily the best decision I made for my wedding. From the very beginning she had lots of helpful planning documents, answered every question I had, gave us ideas when we couldn't figure out how or when we wanted something to happen for our special day, stayed over time on our planning / check in calls to make sure we felt that we covered everything, and did all of this with a smile and supportive, kind attitude. You're going to spend a lot of time with your wedding planner / coordinator, so it's important that they're a good person and you like them! Well Diane is a gem of a human being, and I really do feel like I made a forever friend in her. Throughout the planning process and on the day, there were times when I just needed emotional support, and she was there for me. Her communication is prompt, consistent, and thorough. She got back to me on every email in a timely manner with all the answers I needed. I didn't realize at the time but strong communication was probably the MOST important aspect that made working with vendors 1000x better, and Diane excelled at it. Additionally, in the lead up to my wedding day and on the day itself, Diane was on top of EVERY detail. She went above and beyond to make sure that everything was PERFECT - just as I always dreamed it would be. From helping me iron my wedding dress while my bridesmaids and I were getting our makeup done to overseeing every vendor arrival and setup to making sure transitions from each part of the day were smooth - she did it all. No detail was too small for her, and because she's a total professional, she thought of everything! I cannot say enough good things about Diane, her abilities as a planner, and her warmth as a person. She will be the best decision that you make for your wedding, too.”

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.

“Aimee will not only provide you with high quality photography, but will help make your day fun, fabulous and memorable. We had to change our wedding photographer at the last minute, and Aimee turned out to be the blessing around the corner. She is so comfortable to be around, helps you to be your authentic self in front of the camera and will also cut it up on the dance floor with you! After our wedding, we asked her to do our maternity photoshoot and our baby girl’s first birthday photos. We have all them on display in our home and will be asking her take photos of our lives for as long as she wants to be behind a camera. I can’t rate higher than 5 stars, but I would if I could. Please believe me when I say booking Aimee as your photographer will be the easiest part of your wedding planning, and all future photoshoots for life.”

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!”

Ben and I knew we wanted to be very present at our wedding and wanted to limit how much time we spent away from our friends and family.

She is a photographer who will go above and beyond every step of the way. She was super responsive leading up to the wedding and took on coordinating with our planners and videographer. She answered every text and email inquiry we had quickly and I cannot express how thrilled we are with the turn out!

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.
