Sharon Elisabeth Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style

  • Serves The Plains, VA

Hello! I’m Sharon and I own Sharon Elisabeth Photography. I feel so grateful every day that I get to capture the most heartfelt moments and feelings that occur during weddings as well as documenting the relationships between people who love each other so much – families, friends and couples! I love to tell the story of a wedding day and capture all the forms of love found there. It’s definitely not an “I have to go to work today” career. For me … it’s “I GET to go to work each day!" There is nothing I would rather do more than have my camera in my hands & working with wonderful people.

Sharon and her second shooter, Hannah, are simply the best. Sharon's professionalism, creativity, customer service and commitment to detail were unmatched during the planning process and everything came to a beautiful crescendo on our wedding day in Charlotte, NC in June 2024. She understands family dynamics and approaches her work with love and respect. Her innate ability to capture light, emotion, movement and grace cannot be overstated. I wish there was a 10-star rating.

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.

If you're looking for a photographer who's both super talented and incredibly fun to work with, I can't recommend Kay enough! She's so down-to-earth and ready for anything. Whether you have a unique concept you want to explore or you're a bit shy and need some guidance, Kay is fantastic at making you feel comfortable and directing you effortlessly. Plus, her aesthetic is amazing—those warm tones are just beautiful. If that's your vibe, you'll absolutely love working with her cause I 100% did and keep coming back for more!

Villa Li Photography

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,590
  • Serves The Plains, 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.

Our experience with Villa has been nothing short of magical! From the moment my fiancee and I met her, her warmth and positivity could be felt; and it instantly made us feel at ease. Her energy is truly infectious and added so much joy to our engagement shoot Not only is she a joy to be around, but her talent behind the lens is unmatched. Every shot she captured turned out beautifully. Throughout the entire process, she has been professional, accommodating, and genuinely invested in making our experience as memorable as possible. She went above and beyond to understand our vision and preferences, and the results exceeded our expectations. I couldn't be happier with our decision to work with Villa. If you're looking for someone who not only takes stunning photos but also brings a wonderful energy to your photo session, look no further. Thank you, Villa, for capturing our love on film!

Teyanna and Essence of Flair was truly an answer to prayer. I had a vision of what I wanted for my wedding day and she executed it perfectly. From our first meeting, she listened attentively and made sure she understood the assignment. Teyanna never tried to push her own agenda, what I wanted was always top priority. She was patient and also provided insight that helped me not only in the decor of my venue but in other areas of my wedding. Teyana was absolutely amazing. My wedding ceremony and reception were perfectly decorated and they exceeded my expectations. When I walked into the ceremony and reception area I said this is what I wanted. Teyanna held my hand through the process. If there were negative things happening, I did not know because Teyana was so in control and positive. I got so many compliments on the decor. All I can say is Essence of Flair understood my vision and followed through. Teyanna went above and beyond. I would recommend her and Essence of Flair to anyone that is planning a wedding or any special event.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had the joy of being the couple in a styled wedding photoshoot, with flowers provided by Sunset Florals. Rachel provided the most beautiful, fresh blooms in a variety of arrangements. She crafted a gorgeous ceremony arch with a surplus of cascading flowers and greenery. She thought to attach flowers to the garden swing located on the farm. The bouquet was stunning, and the arrangements on the reception table were whimsical and fun! It’s easy to spot a florist who has an eye for little details and can arrange flowers in a way that’s interesting, classic, natural, and eye catching. Rachel somehow is able to do this with ease! She’s also a sweetheart and puts love and attention into everything she does. If you’re looking for a florist who is calm, talented, detail oriented, and will put a lot of love and care into your event, I highly recommend Sunset Florals!!

  • Serves The Plains, VA

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 a pleasure to work with! She was so accommodating and informative throughout the process. I did a lot of our wedding planning at the last minute and I have never had professional photos done so I wasn't exactly sure what to expect but Darcy walked me through the wedding day and made sure that we had a clear plan. She was also very patient with all of my last minute changes to the schedule. I originally reached out to Darcy because I loved the style of her photos and I was incredibly pleased when I saw our photos. I would definitely reach out to her for future events/family photos!

Sarah Khan Artistry

  • Serves The Plains, VA

Sarah Khan Artistry provides boutique on-location bridal hair and makeup services for you and your bridal attendants. The services provided are to naturally enhance my bride's features and to customize a look that will bring your bridal vision to life!

I booked Sarah to do my hair and makeup for my wedding a couple weeks ago, and she was AMAZING!! I had done a makeup and hair trial with someone else before Sarah and I hated my makeup so much and I was really worried I wouldn’t be able to find someone who would make me look amazing, but really subtle. I booked a trial with Sarah and the magic she worked was just incredible. I had airbrush makeup done which I loved as someone who really doesn’t like feeling makeup on my skin. I am sooooo picky about my hair and makeup and Sarah was so flexible and never got offended when I wanted to make tiny adjustments, or bring my own lipstick to use on the day of! She also was so attentive and helpful in the months leading up to my wedding as I tried to narrow down my vision. The masterpiece that Sarah created with my hair was stunning. I think just about every single guest (and everyone I’ve shown photos to) complimented my hair. She brought my dream look into a reality, and I have never felt so beautiful!! Also Sarah really went above and beyond in the getting-ready room with me lol, helping me put on my shoes and getting my train straightened out before my first-look. She also was such a good person to have by my side during that time - when we had a moment alone, she asked me if my mom or anyone stressed me out or anything so that she could get a heads-up on any hiccups we might face. It was so comforting to me that she was thinking about things like that! I really felt like she was in my corner that whole morning/early afternoon. I definitely spent more than I originally planned on hair & makeup, but honestly Sarah is worth everyyyyy penny. I didn’t have to touch up my hair or makeup the entire night, and it felt so good that I had 100% trust in Sarah after my trials. Also another note - we had a really small wedding, so we didn’t have bridesmaids or groomsmen - it was surprisingly hard to find makeup artists who were willing to travel for just the bride’s hair and makeup. I am super thankful that Sarah was willing to do so! Trust me, you will not regret booking with her!! I trust her with my life at this point!!

Hiring Mike as our wedding DJ was one of the best decisions we made!! From our first meeting, Mike was professional and friendly, providing us with a lot of information and answering all of our questions. After we booked with him, he set up an easy-to-use app for us to select our songs, write notes about the reception, and communicate any special instructions. It helped us keep track of what to prepare and how to plan the timeline of our day since we didn't have a wedding planner. Mike also came to an in person meeting with our venue so he could be prepared for the wedding day, and he was completely set up and ready when we arrived for cocktail hour and dinner. The wedding day could not have gone better: not only was Mike on point with all the music choices we made, he created an excellent vibe for our guests. We had a lot of families with young adults and older parents, and Mike played music that appealed to both crowds. His emcee skills are excellent, and he was flexible with a few adjustments to the timeline throughout the night. Mike’s son JC worked our photobooth, and he was just as professional and friendly. His upbeat attitude and excitement for the day was well appreciated, and all of our guests were happy with their photobooth experiences. If you want a smooth, efficient wedding day with top tier vibes, Mike is the guy to hire!!

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 booked Margo as my wedding hair stylist and she was amazing!! Her professionalism and bubbly personality made my wedding morning stress-free, and she gave me the hair style of my dreams I first booked a hair trial with Margo about a year ahead of my wedding. From the start, she was communicative, and my trial session was a lot of fun. She answered a ton of my questions about timeline, hair styles, and more. She also sent me extra reference photos when I requested them to prepare for my bridesmaids. Margo is also incredibly fast. We had a 12pm finish time, and I had 5 bridesmaids plus myself that needed their hair done. She arrived at 7:30AM and completed everyone’s hair in a timely manner. My bridesmaids had hair ranging from very naturally curly and thick to extremely straight and hard to hold a curl. Every single one of the girls’ hair held up for the entire day over 12 hours, and everyone was delighted with their chosen styles! My hair was still looking fantastic after a lot of dancing (see the attached photo of me at top golf at the end of the night!) I highly recommend Margo for an entirely stress-free morning getting ready for your wedding, and if you want you and your bridesmaids looking beautiful for the entire day. Her and her team at The Whole Story are amazing!!!

With a knack for authentic storytelling, she works to capture a combination of artful, composed imagery and joyful candids that exude the energy and preserve the emotions of your event. She believes deeply that both the aesthetics of your day (which are sure to be stunning) and the spirit of your celebration deserve equal attention and documentation.

Awarded Best of Zola
Annemarie deserves all of the praise in the world, because she is truly the best vendor you could hope for. It goes without saying that we first wanted to hire Annemarie when we saw her stunning photographs--she is incredibly talented and has a true eye for beauty. However, with Annemarie you get so much more than that. The short version: if you want a photographer who goes above and beyond and is extremely talented, professional, responsive, helpful, reliable, kind, and accommodating, you absolutely need to hire her. The detailed version: We first met Annemarie when we did our engagement shoot, exactly a year before our wedding. The shoot was a wonderful experience thanks to her--she had so many creative ideas of where to get the perfect pictures, she gave clear directions that made us feel comfortable and at ease, and in between pictures she was wonderful and lovely to talk to. She never made us feel rushed, and even went to a second location with us to shoot more pictures. She sent us an entire gallery full of gorgeous pictures within a few weeks. As our wedding approached, she reached out consistently to check up on us, and created a detailed timeline and shot list for our day--following up and responding at any and all times with extremely useful suggestions. One day, our coordinator scheduled a very last minute venue walk-through which was not necessary to attend; we reached out to Annemarie with absolutely no expectation of her attending (less than 24 hours notice) and she immediately responded that she would be there. At the walkthrough, she again provided us with so much wonderful advice and helpful suggestions, and scoped out the entire venue with me to get ideas of where she would take pictures. On the day of our wedding, she made the day run seamlessly--providing guidance, and making sure everyone was in the locations and sticking to the schedule. She has a very calming presence, which is super useful on such a hectic day full of activities. She also brought an assistant and a second shooter with her--the three made a wonderful team that captured every important moment. I realized suddenly that I really wanted to extend Annemarie's time with us at the wedding, and was panicked because I hadn't thought to extend the contract. I pulled her aside and she immediately reassured me that she would stay and not to worry. Our wedding ended Saturday at midnight--we had a beautiful preview of our photographs by Monday morning, and our full gallery a few weeks later. We would recommend Annemarie to absolutely anyone getting married--you need the best vendors for your most important day (and arguably, photographers are one of the most important vendors), and she's simply the best.

Your wedding day is a whirlwind of family and friends, vows and true love, good food and of course lots of cake! With a wedding photographer, all the beautiful moments can be captured and remembered forever. Pop of Molly Photography focuses on candid photography encapsulating the bride and groom and wedding guests enjoying the moment and being their own beautiful selves. Focusing on candid photography doesn't mean I won't take the time to sit down with you and go over the "must have" shots, list of family members and wedding party, and ensure I have photos of all your Pinterest board "dream wedding" photos.

We hired Molly as our photographer for our micro wedding in Shenandoah National Park. She was amazing to work with from beginning to end. From hearing out our ideas, giving us pointers, and researching the area for us to get our best pictures. She is everything you want in a candid wedding photographer and we couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you, Molly!!

I started working as a photographer because I'm passionate about helping people showcase who they are and what they have to offer. I work to remove myself from the equation and let my clients take the spotlight. It's thrilling to jump into a session and come out on the other side having learned beautiful new things about a person. When behind the camera I'm coaching you ever step of the way - helping you feel comfortable enough to let your true self emerge.

Michael is such an amazing photographer! When he shot our engagement photos he guided us through the entire thing and did such a wonderful job! Michael made us feel very relaxed and comfortable throughout the entire process. I cant wait to work with him again at our wedding!

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 ❤

We worked with Tigran for our wedding in June 2021 and had a great experience. He was friendly, very responsive, flexible, had a good eye for photo opportunities, and expertly wrangled family and friends for pictures. It was a really easy and smooth experience overall and we were so grateful for his expertise! We love how the photos turned out.

"Capturing Today for the Sake of Tomorrow"... Karisa's passion for capturing couples on the most important day of their lives stems from her past career. Having previously worked as a registered nurse, she realized how valuable preserved memories (AKA photos!) are as patient after patient reminisced often with her before finishing up with "man, I wish I had picture to show you." The cake will be eaten, the flowers will wilt, but your photos are forever. Love, Lomax is here to capture every breathtaking moment for you to smile back on forever, and rest assured that each work of art is signed with love...

We hired Love, Lomax as our wedding photographer which included an engagement shoot, and were BLOWN AWAY with her work! From the start Karisa was very easy to work with and is an incredibly kind, caring person. A photographer captures really intimate moments, and my husband and I felt so comfortable with her. She did a great job coaching us through the poses and went to a variety of locations to make sure we got all the shots. Specifically for the wedding, she was incredibly organized by sending us a wedding questionnaire and creating a very detailed timeline, making sure she knew all the important photos we wanted to get. On my wedding day, she felt like one of my friends and was hyping my husband and I up all day. She was super respectful of our time and made sure we got photos efficiently so we could enjoy as much time with our family and friends. Regarding her work, she is an AMAZING photographer. We got so many compliments on our engagement and wedding photos, many people saying they look like they could have been in a magazine. All of my friends and family that interacted with Karisa on our wedding day spoke so highly of her and said we made the right decision hiring her. I cannot recommend Love, Lomax enough!!

As a musical theatre performer, I loved makeup – the cakey, heavy stage looks, not as much. Then, at my own wedding, I found myself in a similar predicament: heavily made up to the point of not looking entirely like myself. I dedicated myself to honing my passion for natural makeup artistry for beauty, bridal, film and TV, perfecting my craft and learning from industry experts. My work has been featured in respected platforms such as Washington Family Magazine, the Emmy Awards, and DCW50 (DC's CW Network). Now, I create timeless, skin-forward makeup looks that put my clients’ natural beauty center stage.

Awarded Best of Zola
WOW! Kiley absolutely blew me away with the look she was able to achieve for my wedding. As a no-makeup girlie, I was quite nervous to wear any on the big day and not feel like myself. Her consultation process is extensive because her attention to detail on every wish you want is spot-on. I told her I wanted a bit of pop of color possibly on my lips but overall just wanted to enhance my beauty with soft pink tones. I highly, highly recommend doing the trial session first because it helped us realize what colors looked good on me and how much makeup I actually wanted on. She is an expert at applying individual fake lashes which 1) helped me not bleed mascara down my face when I cried and 2) looked stunning without looking unnatural! After the trial, I emailed her some of my thoughts and she executed my vision perfectly on the actual day. She also made my mother and maid of honor look absolutely gorgeous; we all felt so confident and beautiful all day long! Most of all, she was just such a sweet presence the day-of and the whole planning process. I am so incredibly appreciative of Kiley's artistic gift and cannot recommend her enough!!!

Michelle is the best! We were so thankful to have her as our elopement photographer. She captured incredible moments from our ceremony followed by a photo shoot in the area afterwards. As a pretty camera-shy couple, Michelle immediately made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and had us laughing the whole time! She was so good at giving us direction that it felt natural and easy. It was clear she scoped out the area ahead of time too, with all the fun ideas she had and different spots we walked to. The best was when Michelle managed to find the prettiest street filled with cherry blossoms (at the start of spring)! From the beginning of our contact with her, Michelle was a joy to work with. Super communicative, kind, thoughtful, and professional. Her energy was infectious! We could not be happier with our photos and will be sure to book Michelle again if another occasion arises. If you're looking for a photographer, reach out to Michelle - you won't regret it!!

My goal is to make sure every video I create represents you as the couple exactly as you are and tells the story of your day in a way that preserves the emotion and memories for years to come. I love to work with people from all walks of life and am inclusive of every type of love story. As I grow in my art and in my business, I find myself leaning more and more toward authenticity. During your day, I want to capture your true selves, therefore I do very little posing or staging. I will gently guide you during couples portraits, or point you toward the best light, but other than that, I strive to be as unobstrusive as possible.

We looked at so many videographers and watched so many wedding videos. Livvy’s style was exactly what we were looking for. She was super responsive and easy to work with from day one, and her packages were incredibly reasonable. When we met to do our love story, Livvy was fun and made sure we were both comfortable. She gave great direction so we never felt awkward. She really was an incredible hype girl the whole time, which made us feel even more comfortable about being in front of a camera. I’m pretty sure she got us our love story in around 24 hours (benefits of the off season!) I cry every time I watch it. I’m just in awe of her artistry…the questions she asked us and the way she wove our answers together tells our story so beautifully….it’s truly something we will treasure forever. On our wedding day, Livvy was awesome. She really was a ninja in getting her shots, because after our couples portraits, I didn’t even see her until she was getting ready to leave! We got our teaser trailer pretty quickly, and we got our full video not long after that, and every time we watch it, we notice another subtle detail that just blows us away (one of my favorite details is how when I mentioned our dog in my vows, she overlaid video of us with our dog before the ceremony). When we got our motion book (which is another fantastic bonus of booking Livvy!), the screen was cracked, but we contacted Livvy and she had a replacement ordered and sent in like 24 hours! We can’t say enough great things about Livvy. If you are on the fence about hiring a videographer–just do it, and hire Livvy if you can. You will not regret it.

Brin’s Posy is named after my beloved dog. She passed away unexpectedly a few years ago, leaving myself and her pup sister (Abby) to figure out life without her. We were months of grieving her loss when a close friend insisted I channel the grief energy into something positive. A bell went off in my head as my current job as a florist in a far away town was coming to an end. Brin’s Posy helped me come to terms with the loss. I still have Abby (the shop girl) in the shop daily and occasionally out to our farm venues! We love to source local and work with community members.

Awarded Best of Zola
As you’ll come to see with vendors, not all of them are very responsive, Barbora was always responsive no matter what time I texted her and had a question to ask her prior to the wedding. She’s punctual (something I care a lot about), she’s very organized (had a timeline and stuck to it) she is also very reliable so that made me comfortable. On the wedding day, she was a delight to be around. She worked so so hard. I literally got to a point where I had to remind her to go have her meal. She took what I thought were beautiful pictures. I wanted spontaneous and organic pictures and she captured just that. I am very awkward in front of the camera (and so is my husband), she helped direct us and made us comfortable. I also wanted pictures in front of the DC monuments, as you can imagine they’re crazy busy on the weekend but she managed to direct us along with the rest of our group and took some of the most beautiful photos (I thought). What I valued the most about Barbora is that it felt like she genuinely cared. It wasn’t a job that she had to go to, she really enjoyed what she was doing.

What an honor for Marvill to play at my mother's retirement party (or as she called it a "Radical Reset" party). We originally found out about Marvill when he played at the DC Wharf, while celebrating my mother's birthday at a nearby restaurant. We knew we would have to use his services one day. Marvill was a pleasure to work with! He was on time and handled himself like a professional. He has an extensive song list to select from, including holiday choices. The written agreement made was well thought out and clear. Everyone at the party loved it and my mother was especially honored. I would work with him again in a heartbeat!
