There are no amount of words to be able to explain how much I enjoyed working with Morgan for our wedding! Long story short, 6 weeks out we were suddenly in need of a new photographer & videographer. I frantically posted in a wedding facebook group & Morgan was recommended. Having to find a new photographer & finding Morgan was a huge blessing in disguise. From our first call, she made me feel at ease with her not only capturing our love story but also as an asset to help things run smoothly on our big day! Though we met Morgan for the first time on our wedding day, she immediately made us feel comfortable. She is so fun and kind but also knows how to take charge when needed! She is extremely organized & did a great job capturing the photos I wanted based on inspiration photos. Our bridal party had so much fun taking photos which says a lot if you've ever been a part of one. My hubby even enjoyed taking photos which he hates to do! Her second shooter, Hannah, was super sweet, a great help, and added amazing ideas & photos. Morgan gave us so many beautiful photos that we will cherish forever! I seriously can't recommend Morgan enough!!

  • Serves Stafford, VA

Nam Tatum is a travel documentary and editorial wedding photographer with a passion for capturing raw, unfiltered emotions. She moved to the U.S. at nine and served in the Marines for seven years before turning her lifelong love for photography into a career. Her approach to photography is far from cookie-cutter. She's been behind the lens since she was ten, seeking out the candid, unscripted moments that reveal the true essence of her subjects. Nam’s style is rooted in authenticity, observing every detail with care and capturing love stories just as they unfold.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to even start? From the planning of the engagement session to the execution of our wedding day photography, Nam was so fun, helpful, encouraging, and professional. She made all of our dreams come true with every picture and has made memories that we will cherish forever. Nam’s laidback fun personality made both my husband and I feel comfortable to be ourselves in front of the camera even though neither one of us are big fans of having our picture taken. She captured us in a way that showed our love in every picture, and it never felt like unnatural or like a photoshoot. She has a way of making people feel seen, and her pictures show that. If you want to always remember the way you *feel*, I would highly recommend Nam. She captures heart on film, and we feel so lucky to have that memorialized forever!

Alex is a phenomenal photographer. We found him by luck online, and my husband and I couldn’t be happier with our experience. Planning the details of a wedding can get very stressful. Alex did various check ups throughout the months and weeks leading up to the wedding, whether that be a zoom call, phone call, or text. This helped us stay on track with planning. On top of that, his questionnaire was very thorough and detailed. He really got to know my husband and I, and with the questionnaire he was able to capture what we wanted. Our wedding day did not go exactly as planned. It was a bit chaotic, and we were a little behind on our timeline. Alex was able to adapt and be flexible, but made sure to keep us on schedule. He went above and beyond with his customer service, and if my husband and I were to pick one of our vendors we were happiest with, Alex would be it. His photos and videos were well received by all our family and we are grateful that we have those physical memories to cherish.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Villa Li Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,590
  • Serves Stafford, VA

I'm a visual enthusiast with a degree in Arts Management. My style is mostly photojournalistic, embracing natural and romantic elements. In each wedding, my aim is to craft something different and unique, capturing a set of storytelling moments that reflect the essence of the day. What truly drives me is the moment when my clients receive the picture, and tell me how they love them. Knowing that my work will be forever cherished by others adds a meaningful layer.

Working with Villa was one of the best choices we made as part of wedding planning. During the initial planning, she was responsive, thoughtful, and considerate of our vision. She understands that most people have never planned a wedding before helped us not only plan photos, but reorganize our reception to flow better. My husband and I are very photo shy, enough so that we debated on whether or not to even hire a photographer for the wedding. Villa was so great at directing interesting, natural poses that didn't feel forced or awkward in the moment. We opt-ed not to do an engagement shoot, but if we had to do it all over again, we absolutely would with Villa. During day of, Villa was extremely detailed and organized. She arrived early to the venue to capture photos and understand the space overall. She was very good about taking photos in a way that didn't interrupt the flow of events while navigating a fairly large and irregularly shaped venue. We received a great blend of editorial and photo-journalistic images that really captured the day beautifully. She has a great eye for wide shots, close up details, and artistic framing. Our wedding day started on a sunny day at noon and ended in the evening. Villa shot great photos throughout all the lighting changes during the day including many flash photography and low light shots after the sun had set. We had a great experience sharing our wedding day with Villa and think you would too!

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!

I've known Beth with 3 Cats Photo for years and it was an honor to have her photograph our wedding. She made my wife and I's pinterest board dreams come to life in addition to taking pictures of all the tiny details we didn't even know we wanted until they existed. Beth is organized, kind, and so knowledgeable in addition to having a beautiful eye for the perfect moments and compositions to make every photo a work of art I want to frame on our wall. (Seriously, I've printed so many of our wedding pictures my wife jokes that I have constructed a shrine to our marriage - and she's not wrong, they're just so cute!).

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 the coolest job in the world: I create emotional time capsules for my couples (and hopefully you too). That way, you get to be fully present on your wedding day and you get to relive that day over and over again with the same intensity, joy and love. My not-so-secret sauce is this: I get to know you. I find out what makes you and your lover tick, and then, I craft a visual story that's reflective of you. My utmost goal is to create joyful imagery for folks who want things documented exactly as they felt.

There are only good things to say about working with Maggie! We booked her for our engagement photos as well as for our wedding day. During the engagement session, she captured some true gems by helping us stay comfortable and true to ourselves. Leading up to our wedding day she was communicative, made sure she understood what our vision/priorities were, and worked well with our planner. On our wedding day, she was so fun to work with, got some beautiful shots of the big moments, and some incredible shots of little ones, too. Even just in our sneak peaks from our wedding, there are so many lovely candids amidst well-placed staged family/couple shots. She has great vision and good ideas and is fun to be around for the process! Regardless, her work speaks for itself. We highly recommend booking Maggie for your engagement and wedding photos!!

We were immediately drawn to Rachel Stenger's photography style and tone. We loved her slightly moody yet crisp vibe. It was evident that she was able to capture the true energy of the people she photographed and that's a special skill. We immediately contacted her to capture our wedding that was scheduled for June 2020. As we got closer to the date and the likelihood of the wedding needing to evolve was growing, Rachel was accessible, supportive, and understanding. She was able to capture our small intimate ceremony on our original date and it was beautiful. We were so happy with her work and her personable energy that we asked her to capture our wedding celebration that happened a year later. Rachel and Zeb, another photographer that she works with, were such a delight while they captured our June 2021 wedding. It was effortless, it felt like they were our friends attending the wedding who happened to be taking photos. They captured all the lovely candid and quirky moments while also capturing the magical staged shots. We highly recommend working with Rachel Stenger, her work is a perfect blend of artistic and realistic. Rachel and Zeb captured moments that will continue to bring a smile to our faces as the years go by. Thank you!

Growing up in rural Virginia my intro to photography came to me at 14 while breaking into abandoned houses with friends to take photos that can only be describe in retrospection as “experimental”. Fast forward a handful of years and I found myself going 'legit' and holding a BFA in photography, later finding yet more perspective and cutting my teeth shooting society events in NYC. Having now spent more years of my life taking photos than not, it’s safe to say that I’m all in.

Working with Cassidy was a fantastic experience. He listened to what we wanted, gave us ideas from his experience working at our venue and made us feel completely comfortable. Everyone told us when selecting a photographer to make sure you are comfortable with them since they are involved in some of the most intimate moments of your day - and while that was true - he managed to get so many great shots without intruding or in some cases even being noticed. He caught serious moments, funny private moments and of course all of the formal moments. We have recommended him to multiple friends of ours and will continue to do that moving forward. You cannot go wrong working with Cassidy!

Born & raised on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, I've been capturing love stories for over 15 years. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for over 10 years, and raising our two sweet boys on this little sandbar we call home is a dream come true. While we are based on the OBX, we happily serve couples on the Outer Banks and Beyond, and enjoy spending the winter months in Costa Rica.

If you need a photographer, Courtney Hathaway is the one to hire! Fun, caring and talented are just a few words to begin with. My husband and I are both camera shy and from day 1 of shooting our engagement, Courtney made us feel comfortable and confident. We had a giant wedding party and a toddler on board, no prob for Courtney! Everyone has expressed to us how fun she made our wedding shoot and how gorgeous all the photos turned out. She certainly knows how to work with big groups, shy couples, and little kids! We've worked with her through pouring rain from a tropical depression (wedding day), whipping winds on a beach (engagement shoot), and a perfect warm sunset surprise engagement by the sound. Every single time, she pulls through and creates timeless beautiful galleries.

MaryKate was fantastic. We hired her for a small wedding in June. She also did our engagement photos. Simply put, she was incredible. She is so very easy to work with. She is so easy to communicate with. And her photos of our wedding and engagement are stellar. I highly recommend her.

Hey! I'm Sydney, but most people just call me Syd. I am a wedding and Elopement photographer based in KY & Washington, DC, but ready to jet set wherever you need me. I am an avid yogi, podcast lover, and travel enthusiast. I first picked up a camera at the age of 15 and fell in love with the art of photography. I got my start by photographing portraits of my friends and family. I came to realize that my favorite types of images to capture are the intimate and silly moments between two people in love. My photography style is romantic and timeless. I love working with shadows to get that moody effect that I adore.

My husband and I worked with Sydney on a vow renewal we did in Washington, DC. We were absolutely blown away by her talent! Not only is she so sweet and fun to be around but her direction and attention to detail captures the truly genuine moments. The amount of confidence she exudes in her work is tangible and helped us to feel so comfortable and relaxed during photos. The photos she took are ones that we will cherish forever. I would recommend her over and over again!!

Cramer Photo - Sarah Cramer Shields

  • Serves Stafford, VA

For as long as I can remember, I have had a passion for understanding people and making beautiful images. Earning dual degrees in fine art photography and anthropology was a natural extension of this passion — a path that led me to launch Cramer Photo in 2005. I focus my photography on the art of documentation. I love to capture the in-between moments, when a bit of your inner self is revealed. Your images will be a perfectly honest reflection of you, the people you love, and the moment you’re in. I am a visual storyteller, documenting the personal and professional stories of my clients. Let me tell your story!

Sarah has captured my heart on various big moments, and now I can add "wedding" to the list. Words cannot describe the ease in which she put me, my husband (yay!), and our friends and family on such an important day. Her spunk, pure joy, positive energy, professionalism, genuine kindness, and TALENT, are what makes her an exceptional photographer and friend. I look forward to having her capture all of our future exciting life moments!

Hello, I am Brittany Adams, I am a photographer, writer, graphic designer, and retouch artist who wishes only to exist in the world as an artist. I want everyone to fulfill their potential and I pride myself in being able to help other people see the beauty and value within themselves. Due to this I have created a heart-centered business which focus is not just earning a sustainable income but promoting confidence and independence in women.

Brittany is a talented photographer. Anyone can take a picture, but she captured our very small ceremony at the Virginia Fine Arts Museum with the most stunning and artistic photos, both black and white and in color. She is a total professional, was very easy to work with and the end result photos are exactly what we were looking for. I would HIGHLY recommend her for a wedding or really any event at all!
