Hi, I'm Kelsey! I'm blessed with a loving husband, 3 kitties whom I adore and a plethora of interests. I love hiking with my husband, martial arts, playing music and singing, I'm crazy about animals, I'm absolutely fascinated by linguistics and other cultures. Also, & to my hubby, I'm rather nerdy (you'll see me rolling around in my limited edition Iron Man Hyundai, haha), so if you're into Star Wars, superheroes, etc., I'm sure we will get along just fine ;). What did I say about a plethora of interests? I've been doing photography passionately for at least 14 years. Any talent I have is God given and I do this all to bring fame to His name!

Our photos speak for themselves. It rained our entire wedding day but you’d never be able to tell. Kelsey is amazing. Even though we were able to get a lot of outside photos, the ones taken inside were just as beautiful. She captures every moment. Not only does she take amazing pictures, she also is outstanding to work with. She is very responsive and easy to talk to. She also makes you feel so comfortable and confident when taking pictures. Kelsey, you’re the best and we are so thankful for you this entire wedding process. From engagement to wedding photos, we couldn’t be happier. Thank you!! Book Kelsey!!

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!!

Journalistic style photography based in Western Maryland- but I go wherever you go! I started photographing weddings back in 2021 and since I am a big ole softy for love, I obviously fell in love with it. I like to stay pretty laid back during the day, candid photography is my jam. I believe pictures should tell a story. When you look back at your photos in a year or five, I want you to feel those same emotions you felt that very day. That is what is important to me. So what are you waiting for???

KV Photography was an amazing choice for our wedding photography. From the very first interaction, Kristin was easy to communicate with - her responses were quick, straightforward, and put us at ease. On the day of the wedding, her friendly attitude and positive energy made the photo session fun and comfortable. Kristin has a clear vision and an organized approach that allowed her to capture all the important moments beautifully. The final photos exceeded our expectations - the quality is incredible, and we are thrilled with the memories she was able to preserve for us. We highly recommend KV Photography to any couple looking for an experienced, talented photographer who will help make your wedding day truly special.

We hired Lisa as our wedding photographer. She was absolutely wonderful to work with - we had steady communication leading up to the wedding day as well as in-person meetings to talk about what photos are must-haves and about our timeline for the day. She was timely on the day of the wedding and added excitement to the room! She kept us on schedule and coordinated our times perfectly.

Hi Everyone! I am so happy that you are here! I am a photographer in the DMV area but I am available for travel among states and worldwide! I am passionate about telling your love story, documenting the authentic and candid moments that unfold throughout the day.

We cannot say enough great things about Katie! We booked her for both engagement pictures as well as our wedding. We took our engagement photos at the beach when it was still pretty cold out. During our session she got into the water to take the perfect shot, and the pictures turned out amazing! She is down to earth, easy to work with, and very accommodating. We never felt like it was an awkward photoshoot. She made it feel like we were just hanging out, being ourselves, and having fun. We cannot stop looking at our engagement and wedding photos. Our families really enjoyed her too. We highly recommend working with her and have already recommended her to others.

Hey there, folks! So, I've been known to dabble in this little thing called photography, or as some like to eloquently put it, playing around with a "time-freezing device" also known as a camera. But don't worry, I promise I actually know how to use one! My journey into the world of photography began back in my college days. I spent countless nights diving into the world of photography, learning everything I could find on YouTube Academy of Photography (if that were an actual thing). If you're in the market for a self-taught, hard-working, humble photographer, then I think I'm your person.

Everything about working with Marcus is LOVELY — from the first phone call, to our engagement photos, to our elopement photos. I was initially anxious about hiring a photographer, especially since (1) I had no idea where to start and (2) we were eloping so these were going to be *the* thing to mark the day. He was my first phone call and within 5 minutes of talking to him I was sold. I only had two broad (vague) ideas for what I wanted and he took them and turned them into plans I could be excited about. Ultimately, our engagement photos involved a last minute location change and our elopement photos ended up needing a schedule change. Marcus was nothing but responsive and encouraging through everything. He was ready with new ideas and managed to keep me excited when I'd have otherwise been really stressed. I’m not sure anyone else would have been so flexible while also staying so warm and kind. And of course, the photos are gorgeous. He manages to talk to you and make you laugh and feel like you’re just hanging out while also capturing a thousand (literally) photos. The last time my husband or I had professional photos taken we were probably in high school, but Marcus was a pro at making us feel comfortable. His eye is great and he sees things we’d have never thought of, to beautiful results. I’ve already told my husband when we need photos for anything in the future, we’re calling Marcus. 12/10 recommend. Giving him glowing reviews is going to be my new hobby, and if you work with him it’ll be yours too.

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.

Snowdrop Creative Co. was born from a dream. A dream that I could do the things that I LOVE, be present for my children and my partner, and create work that I am proud of. It sounds like what we all wish for, right? Well, it isn't always so simple as "I want this, so I'm doing it." I spent ten years in retail management. I spent long days away from my family, only to get home to them and be too tired to enjoy my time with them. My life was cold and dreary, and I knew something had to change. And so, Snowdrop was born. A place where I can create and love what I do. Capture memories and magic and joy in a single moment.

We booked Alexandra with Snowdrop Creative Co for a family photo session. Our toddler is a very active and spicy toddler, and Alexandra's patience with him paid off! She gave great suggestions for poses or things to try with him (swing him up in the air to get him to giggle, swing him while we walk, let him "race" and run towards her) and despite my anxiety about being able to get any usable photos (we've failed with other photographers in the past), we got several! She was totally willing to roll with it and let him do some exploring while she worked on candid shots of the family and it turns out those were our favorites. We got some fantastic posed family shots, but her patience and flexibility with letting our toddler drive the session got us some incredible relaxed family photos that don't look awkward or rehearsed. I'm so grateful for her experience and expertise! She was wonderful to work with, and had top notch communication throughout the entire process.

Seeing others in their pics was one thing, but him capturing my big day and seeing them, I can’t thank them enough. Once on a lifetime events need to be captured by someone who can bring out the emotions and feelings in that day for years to come and he is the one who can do it. They were always responsive, super friendly and made my day go so much smoother. I don’t consider them just photographers, but also my friends now. Thank you so much, if Caz is available BOOK HIM right away. The best day ever thanks!

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.

Kelly was our wedding photographer and we couldn’t recommend her enough! She perfectly captured our wedding in her photos, and we really feel like we relive the day every time we look at them. She helped us think through what we wanted our photos to reflect, which made them all the more meaningful to us because they are true to our relationship. Her photography style is timeless, lively, and approachable. Kelly’s kind and down to earth nature really stands out in an otherwise daunting wedding industry.

Hi, I’m Lauren, the owner of Lauren Katherine Creative, and I’m passionate about capturing the magic of weddings. I’ve always been drawn to photography, ever since childhood, when I fell in love with the art of storytelling through images. Now, I get to do what I love most—helping couples turn their vision into lasting memories. My goal is to make everyone feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera, so I can capture those authentic, meaningful moments. With a background in film, I bring a creative, cinematic touch to every shot, making sure your wedding photos reflect the beauty and emotion of your special day.

We are so so so happy that we booked Lauren for our wedding day. She and Julianna (second shooter) were so incredible. They made us feel so comfortable and did a great job at keeping everyone on track. We just got our sneak peek back and they are so much better than we even imagined. We couldn’t be happier that we chose Lauren as our photographer.

As a hopeless millennial, probably trying a bit too hard to hold onto her youth, I always try to bring fun and lighthearted energy everywhere I go. Life is just too short to sweat the small stuff, peeps!

Awarded Best of Zola
WOW!! That's what first comes to mind when we think about what it was like to work with Kylee. Also, we should note here that this review is going to be long because we love her and loved working with her so much. When we were exploring photographers, it was really important to us that not only was it important to have beautiful photos, but also that we'd be able to work with someone who we'd want to hang out with and even someone we'd be happy to invite to our wedding. Before even meeting with Kylee, we loved how clear it was (via her website) that she has a killer personality, and also that she puts her couples' personalities in the spotlight. When we had our initial consult with her, the first half was really just chatting about little nuggets we'd put in the inquiry questionnare - aka, learning we shared a massive love of board games with Kylee, and also that we 100% want to be friends with her in the real world. Her follow up email wasn't even just a "hey, will you be booking me?" - in fact, it had nothing to do with that, but rather her asking for board game suggestions for an upcoming trip. Beyond shared interests, Kylee made us feel super informed about her process, and we got some really great wedding planning tips from her. We also wanted to make sure we worked with people who we felt comfortable asking questions to, as people who tend to feel a little worried about potential confrontation. When we had a question about how some of our wedding color choices might resonate in Kylee's aesthetic, she was not only extremely compassionate in her answer, but also was SUPER informative in a way that was fully digestible by non-photography experts. It was actually this specific exchange that made us book her. Kylee is probably one of the most unique vendors we partnered with because she truly builds a community - she hosted an open house to connect couples both past and present, and is open about how much of a human she is in a way that really resonates. Kylee is game for everything. We love to bike ride and wanted to include our bikes in our engagement shoot, and Kylee was immediately game for it. When we told her we have a signature pose that is...not romatic, Kylee was totally game. In fact, she remembered this on the wedding day and incorporated it into our shotlist at various points without us having talked about it. But let's talk about the wedding day. Kylee and her second photography (Tiffany!!!) had to travel a number of hours for our wedding, which we're sure was not fun, and if that was the case, Kylee didn't let it show at all. She was really such a joy to be around. She commanded peoples' attention when she needed to, and also easily blended herself in to fully capture candids easily. We got so many compliments from our family and wedding party about how awesome Kylee was. Something we really loved when we'd first met with Kylee was learning that her favorite part of a wedding is the dancing (because that's our part too), and we took some specific joy in getting to break it down with her at our wedding. Kylee's photography is second-to-none and insanely beautiful, but really she's one of the greatest people we've met throughout the wedding journey. She's professional, she's thorough, she's really freaking fun, and we're so lucky we got to spend an entire day with her. You really won't regret with working with her!!

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!

My work is inspired by romantic minimalism, modern elegance, and non-traditional perspectives. From stolen glances to joyous celebrations, I strive to capture what is at the heart of your relationship, weaving together a narrative that is uniquely yours. I blend a unique mix of documentary and editorial style photography in my craft: the documentary style to capture the events of your day in close detail, and the editorial style to provide copious amounts of posing guidance so you and your loved ones feel confident that you look like your absolute best in your photos.

After interviewing a few photographers for my proposal, Sravya clearly stood out to me as the best one for the job. She was very responsive, flexible, and kind. Most importantly, I loved her vision and support day of during the shoot. Her artistic eye made the photos turn out beautiful! She also delivered all of the pictures on time. Highly recommend working with Sravya!

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!
