Rachel Walisko Photography

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Serves Suitland, MD

Hi there, I'm Rachel, a portrait and wedding photographer based in Washington DC and NYC. With a BFA in Photography and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Master's degree in Film Studies from the University of Edinburgh, I have spent over 15 years honing my skills and deepening my understanding of photography as an art form. When I'm not behind the camera, I’m often delving into the world of mid-century design, watching films and going on hikes with my husband, Jamie.

Rachel Walisko is absolutely the best photographer we could have hoped to find for our wedding!! We can't recommend her enough. Rachel gave wonderful direction to two people who aren't used to being photographed, and she had terrific ideas for where to take pictures in downtown DC. She got so many great candid shots of our friends & family dancing at our reception. The COLORS in her work are just beautiful. Book this photographer!

My hobbies are painting, sawing and printing, and my biggest passion are flower designs and expressions.

Daisy Dahlia events is the best! They made beautiful flowers for my wedding on 09/28/2023. Even though I only gave Jelena a short noticed, she made it happen. She helped us a lot and made amazing flowers for me, bridesmaids, groomsmen, and my husband. Jelena was very nice and easy to talk to about what I wanted for my wedding. She is very talented and knowledgeable about flower arrangements. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Daisy Dahlia Events!

If you are searching for somewhere to have the perfect outdoor wedding, look no further than Comus Farm. Lauren and Kara truly pulled out all the stops to make our wedding day unforgettable! In 2023, my husband and I were looking for wedding venues: we were very specifically looking for someplace that would not require a lot of decoration work, since we were planning the whole event ourselves. As soon as my husband and I arrived at Comus Farm, I said “this is it, I want to book this place.” The farm is located in pleasant countryside, and the farm itself has a very beautiful entrance through trees and sunny fields: many of our guests commented on how this made the drive from the off-site ceremony to the reception at the farm very enjoyable. We toured the rose garden, outdoor dining and dancing pavilions, and the large barn, all of which are airy and open, making it feel very welcoming. The farmhouse Airbnb was spacious, clean, and well decorated. Lauren and Kara were both so kind, and they provided a lot of information with us in our first meeting: we signed the contract about a week after seeing the place. Lauren and Kara used AislePlanner to help us get going with our wedding planning. The website is easy to use, and the provided checklist covered literally every single tiny detail you could possibly need to consider for the planning journey. I was especially pleased with the seating chart map, it made it so easy for us to track guest meals, stage table set up, and communicate special requests. It also prints out the layout really nicely if you need to send it to your catering company. Our wedding party stayed at the farmhouse Airbnb the night before and after the wedding. Everyone had a really fantastic time, there was more than enough space for the girls to get ready in the AM, and the food provided was delicious! During the reception, my grandparents enjoyed their dinner in the kitchen so they could get some quiet time and rest, but they were still close enough to the wedding so they could say hello to the guests and listen to the speeches happening in the dinner pavilion. I also cannot say enough about how much we appreciated Lauren and Kara’s thoughtfulness throughout the planning process and on the day. They patiently answered so many of our questions, and they allowed us to come by three separate times to see the farm and meet with our vendors. They coordinated the vendors without a hitch, and we didn’t have to worry about a single thing on the day of the wedding. Kara drove the two of us and our photographer out to more remote areas on the farm to get some portrait shots. Lauren coordinated some fun photos with the alpacas, which was a lot of fun! Comus Farm is truly a beautiful spot to have a wedding, complete with a team that made our day perfectly stress-free. I’ll definitely be looking for any other reason to book with them in the future :)

I'm William, a dedicated and passionate photographer/videographer based in Washington, DC. My love of photography was born out of my love of travel. While exploring other countries and cultures, I was using my phone to document the people that I met and the places that I have been. This led me to buy my first professional-level camera; it has been with me ever since. I consider my photography style to be timeless. When I'm not behind the lens, you'll find me at my local movie theater or spending quality time with my family and friends.

Awarded Best of Zola
Fourth Photography, LLC was a wonderful choice for our wedding photography. From the start, the photographer was incredibly helpful, friendly, and punctual in all of our communications. On the day of our engagement photos, it was very windy and cold, but the photographer remained professional throughout and made sure to get all the special moments, even going the extra mile to spot a great location we hadn't noticed and encouraging us to stay for some extra photos. The final photos were absolutely beautiful and captured all the joy and details of our special day. We're so grateful for their attentive service and the wonderful, high-quality work they provided.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jenn was absolutely incredible to work with. I felt SO lucky when I came across her work on social media - which was genuinely more beautiful than photographers charging 2x or more. I probably inquired with 10 photographers beforehand, but the moment I found Jenn, knew we'd choose her for her beautiful work. We loved our engagement photos, and she gave us (stunning) sneak peek wedding photos the day after our wedding! From her "detail" shots, teaching us how to pose (thanks!), scoping out the best spots for beautiful shots, creating a wedding day photography timeline for us - she was so professional, creative, and easy to communicate with. Also as a side note, she is an engineer and I don't know how she is blessed in equal measure with both left-brain precision and right-brain creativity. She also has some very cool options, like Super8 film, polaroids, etc. that we opted to add on - her work is timeless and beautiful and I can't recommend her highly enough. Jenn - thank you so much for capturing these moments for us to look back on!

My mission is to provide you with an unforgettable experience in front of the camera, as well as photographs that you'll treasure for a lifetime. I hope that the photographs I capture for you serve as a reminder of the love that lives within you and your loved ones.

Mariandree was a real gem to work with! We had originally planned our ceremony and small reception for Dec. 2020, but because of COVID had to make some changes. We kept our outside (super cold) ceremony for that December and Mariandree was more than willing to accommodate, given the circumstances. She was a real trooper out there with us on the freezing Waterfront, and we got some amazing photos back within a week! Mariandree was more than gracious to allow us to reschedule the second half of our photoshoot for September 2021 where we finally got to enjoy a small backyard reception. She brought her sister along as a second photographer for the first round, and her mom for the second. It made it really fun and relaxing because she got along so well with my own mom. Overall, I would definitely recommend Mdree Photography for your wedding! She is organized and makes sure to deliver. She has a really fun, youthful, and thoughtful personality, so expect to really enjoy having her capture your special moments.

My passion for floral design began over twenty years ago in a greenhouse in a small Michigan town, traveled through the mountains of Colorado and Arizona, to the beaches of Southern California, settling in Washington, DC. Education in graphic design has helped to sharpen my attention to detail and given me an eye for color and composition.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Jolie and her incredible floral arrangements for our wedding! From our very first meeting, Jolie made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free. She took the time to understand our vision AND budget and brought it to life in the most beautiful way. The flowers for the chuppah and tables were absolutely stunning, each arrangement was vibrant, fresh, and perfectly matched our vision. Invest in flowers, it's worth it! Jolie's creativity and attention to detail truly set her apart, and she went above and beyond to ensure everything was just right. It was a pleasure working with her, and we’re so grateful for her dedication, kindness and talent. If you’re looking for a florist in DC who will make your wedding dreams come true, look no further than Jolie! Thank you, Jolie, for making our day even more magical!

From a young age, she discovered the power of storytelling through her mom's scrap books and National Geographic magazines, sparking an undying fascination with capturing the essence of life's most profound moments. She studies under renowned photographers, soaking up their wisdom and honing her own unique style; authentic photojournalism.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing Katelyn as our wedding photographer was undoubtedly one of the easiest and best decisions we made for our wedding day! We had the pleasure of seeing her work firsthand at a friend's wedding, with who knows how many cameras strapped on! Seeing her attention to detail firsthand and the beautiful quality of our friends photos, she was first on our list for a consultation. From our first call, Katelyn embraced our vision with enthusiasm and professionalism. We knew we wanted a documentary-style photographer with the option of film photos (we loved that Katelyn includes these already) who could capture the genuine emotions and candid moments of our wedding with our lively group, and Katelyn delivered! Despite our initial nervousness about being in front of the camera, Katelyn made us feel incredibly comfortable. Having an engagement shoot beforehand was a great practice run, she has an incredible talent for putting people at ease, and this truly shines through in the photos. We have never felt so photogenic! Our album turned out better than we could have dreamed up. It is truly reflective of us and our day. Complete with details of my treasured Kirkland sweatpants on the way to our venue contrasted with my dress glam Katelyn’s commitment to us was truly exceptional as she had a family loss shortly before our wedding. It would have been more than understandable for her to need more time away or to find us a replacement. Despite this, Katelyn remained fully committed to capturing our day and we are so so grateful. Her dedication and professionalism during such a difficult time speaks volumes about her passion for her work and for her clients. Katelyn is a true artist and an amazing person. Her work exceeded all our expectations, and we feel so fortunate to have had her as part of our wedding team. The only question we have is how early is too early for a vow renewal so we can hire her again!

I'm not a good enough writer to properly capture how great of a service Chris provides with The Easy Pour. Before our wedding, Chris helped us game plan everything - from setup, recommendations on types and amounts of alcohol to even contingency plans for weather (that came into play). The drink menu suggestions that Chris provides are definitely something I recommend taking advantage of - we got the Lavender Gin Fizz and Spiced Honey Old Fashioned, and both were raved on by guests even by folks who chose the mocktail version. On the wedding day, the service they provided was awesome. Chris and Nicole were bartending and were equipped for the rain we got, and Nicole even brought my wife and I drinks (which were so delicious) while we were getting swept away by the attention of guests. The Easy Pour was a highlight for our wedding and knocked it out of the park from an aesthetics, taste, and friendliness standpoint. We really can't thank or recommend Chris and his mobile bar enough.

If you’ve had a good time at a wedding or event in the DC/Maryland/VA area, chances are it was DJ Casanova that got you moving. You know him as DJ Casanova, but around the office, we just call him Jamie. Back in the day, he was just a child of immigrants recording his favorite songs over his parent’s cassette tapes (sorry Mom and Dad) so he could listen to them on his prized Walkman. Jamie entered the DJ field in 2009, and before long he was spinning something at a different party every week. Pretty soon he realized that sharing his love of music with like-minded folks was more than just a hobby, it was a gift.

Our Guests LOVED the music and Jamie was so easy to work with! If you want a DJ who is easy to work with, great at his craft, and cares about you and your needs, Jaime (DJ Casanova) is your man! My wife and I come from very different musical backgrounds, so making sure all of our family and friends had a good time and felt well-represented during the party was really important to us. From day one, Jaime made it feel like we were working with an old friend who just wanted the best for our wedding and he absolutely delivered! Everyone had so much fun and guest after guest commented on how much they enjoyed the music during the party. It’s also worth mentioning that Jaime hung with us after we had to reschedule our reception twice over two years (thanks, COVID) and worked with the rest of our vendors to make the long-awaited day as memorable as we could have ever hoped. Thanks, Jamie!

Nadine Nasby Photography

I am an editorial wedding photographer who is passionate about documenting authentic moments from your wedding as well as fine art classic portraits. Aside from memorable photographs, I believe every couple wants a wedding photographer to be a trusted partner and someone that can add value.

We had a fantastic experience working with Nadine for our newborn and family photo session. From our first meeting, she was warm, kind, and incredibly professional—she took the time to walk us through her portfolio and made us feel completely at ease. During the shoot, she had such a gentle and natural way with our baby, and it really shows in the photos. We were so impressed with the number and quality of images she delivered—and so quickly too! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful, heartfelt family photography.

We chose Brookside Gardens for our wedding because it's such a beautiful location and so close to DC where we live. We worked with Jennifer and her team along the way and they were responsive and incredibly helpful (giving us ideas for how to set everything up, what couples have done in the past, etc.) We had our wedding in the Yew Garden and our cocktail hour in the Fragrance Garden before moving inside for the reception and it was all stunning and we were able to go to several spots in the gardens for our golden hour photos (Japanese Tea House, rose garden, I could go on and on!) I 100% recommend Brookside Gardens for any wedding and am so grateful that we were able to get married there!

Lotus Photography

  • Serves Suitland, MD

My passion for photography grew when my daughter, Lotus, was born in 2004 and I began documenting her childhood with an eye toward catching each irreplaceable moment. Soon, friends and then friends of friends asked me to photograph their children and families. Before long, I was documenting the lives and milestones of people all over the DMV area. I realized how happy I was connecting with people and capturing special moments, and so I launched Lotus Photography in 2012 - named for my first muse. I fell in love with capturing weddings in 2017 and I have been hooked ever since!

Lotus Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, Georgette showed a true empathy for our vision and provided thoughtful feedback to help us feel confident in our decisions. She was incredibly approachable and adaptable, always available for quick chats, texts, and emails. On our wedding day, Georgette was with us from start to finish, ensuring she captured every guest and all of our most intimate moments as a couple. The final photos are absolutely stunning - professional, artistic, timeless, and so authentically us. It's like reliving our special day every time we look through them, and we can't wait to have our favorites printed to hang up all over the house! If you're looking for a photographer who is full of life, energetic, and so much fun to be around, Lotus Photography is the perfect choice.

As a wedding photographer, capturing what is by far one of the most important days of someone's life is just such an honor and an experience. I see it as an opportunity to capture, document, and preserve some of the most powerful emotions that we can experience as human beings. As a series of images that will last for generations. If you’re looking for beautiful, stunning images that truly capture you and your loved one's special day fueled by a passion for photography... as well as a warm, professional experience, I am the photographer for you.

From the moment we first spoke with Lee, we knew we were in good hands. They were incredibly kind, caring, and easygoing throughout the entire process, making us feel comfortable and at ease from start to finish. Their work is simply amazing - the photos they captured of our wedding day are so good and absolutely beautiful, perfectly preserving all the special moments we'll cherish forever.

We couldn't be happier with the incredible service and stunning results and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented and professional wedding photographer.
