Garrett Saler Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Washington, DC for additional fees

As your wedding photographer, a significant part of my role is to consider the fine art aspects of the galleries I create. Things like choosing the best light to fall over your wedding gown, balancing compositions, blending color, and layering textures to create dynamic and beautiful images. But it's much bigger than that. Photographs tell our stories, reveal emotion in ways that words can't, and offer the gift of visual legacy. An artfully told story transcends time. Beautiful photographs require exceptional artists. And you deserve exceptional art.

Awarded Best of Zola
Finding the perfect wedding photographer was at the top of our list, and Garrett truly is the gem we were seeking! From the engagement shoot, to bridals, to the big day, Garrett was a dream to work with. He made us feel comfortable in front of the camera while bringing our vision to life. Not to mention, his prices are unbeatable for the quality of work he is putting out. His ability to capture emotion, attention to detail, and classic style are what makes him stand out. The wedding photos he delivered are so gorgeous and timeless. Everyone I shared the gallery with has been stunned and nothing short of obsessed! Garrett, you have a beautiful gift and we are so glad we found you! Thank you for everything!

I consider my style to be on the photojournalistic side, documenting moments as they naturally happen but also helping to set the scene for the moments that matter most. But I'm not just here to click a camera; I'm your visual storyteller, weaving the narrative of your love into each frame. You can think of me as your co-pilot to navigating the whirlwind of your wedding day. Together, we’ll craft a seamless timeline, embrace the unexpected moments, and handle anything the day throws our way. I’ll capture every smile shared, heartfelt tear shed, and dance move busted along the way so you can focus on enjoying the magic of your special day!

Aireal is an absolute gem! From the moment we connected with her, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer for us. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she also made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera (which isn’t easy!). She captured every moment perfectly—both the big, emotional ones and the sweet little candid moments we didn’t even realize were happening. Her attention to detail is amazing, and she has such a creative eye. Our photos are absolutely stunning, and we’ve received so many compliments from family and friends. What we appreciated the most was how personal and invested Aireal was throughout the entire process. She genuinely cared about making us feel comfortable and our day special and worked seamlessly with our other vendors to keep everything on track. Plus, her energy and enthusiasm were so contagious throughout the day! If you’re looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond to capture your love story, Aireal is your girl. We’re so grateful we found her and will treasure our photos forever!

Cassie & Travis were an absolute dream to work with as our wedding photographers. We’re not incredibly photogenic people, but they made us feel so comfortable and the photos speak for themselves — AMAZING! Out of all of the photographers I spoke with, I chose to go with Cassie because she just seemed to “get” me and the style I was going after. I wanted insane flash photography party pics at the reception but also crisp golden hour ceremony photos and a list of detail shots, and they delivered on all ends! I HIGHLY recommend her for any of your photography needs -- wedding or otherwise!

We have been friends since 2006, married since 2008, and capturing memories through photography since 2010. The years of experience in all three make us uniquely qualified to tell your budding love story. If the years have taught us anything, its that fulfilling, long-lasting marriages have a foundation of friendship, and are built with joy - and perhaps quite a few carbs! We strive to help you feel confident during your big day, and not awkward or stressed - so you can look back on joyful memories that tell your love story.

We had the most amazing experience with Him & Her Photography! Josh and Alisha did both our engagement and wedding photography and went above and beyond from the very beginning. They were so fun to work with and on the wedding day, provided great support for timeline and guidance. They even had our sneak peek pictures ready DURING our reception for guests to view— which both we & the guests were in awe of. I can’t recommend them enough!

I photograph love because I believe in it. I don’t believe in it in the way that a little girl believes in ferries or unicorns, a hopeful “I think it is real” kind of a belief, I believe in its power. I believe that love is the most important emotion we will feel in this lifetime and I believe it has the greatest ability for good. I believe that each human on this earth should have the opportunity to feel deeply loved and to love another deeply themselves. I believe that love is something that should be treasured, cared for, and celebrated.

Awarded Best of Zola
Allison was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is professional, talented, and passionate about her work. She made our day significantly less stressful by being organized and efficient. She has the most inviting personality, and we warmed up to her so quickly I felt like she was just another friend hanging out with the bridal party while she was taking my getting-ready photos. Last, but not least, our wedding photos are absolutely stunning and something we will always treasure. I could really go on and on, but all you need to know is you will not regret booking her!

All our photos are exactly how we pictured them in our minds and MORE! I am so thankful to her for making our lives so easy and being a guiding voice on our day to help any way she could.

With a passion for capturing candid moments, I am the photographer for couples who want their wedding day to be documented authentically and with a touch of fun. The heart of my work as a photographer is a deep passion for storytelling. I'm known for my modern approach to timeless & classic wedding photography. I have developed a unique style that blends creativity, technical expertise, and a deep understanding of human emotions. I believe that every wedding has a unique story to tell, and my mission is to create images that are both timeless and authentic.

Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t be more happy that I chose Sarah to be my photographer. From the beginning, Sarah was kind, thoughtful, and helpful with all of my questions and ideas. I’m someone who doesn’t typically like having their photo taken and feels self-conscious, and she always made me feel comfortable every step of the way. My pictures have turned out absolutely stunning (and I’m saying this as someone who typically hates every picture taken of themselves). She has an amazing eye for everything—lighting, angles, details, you name it. One of the primary reasons (besides liking her as a person) that I wanted to book her is I feel she has skill across a variety of shots (compared to other photographers that seem to take their photos all in one style). I had told her leading up to the wedding that it was important that I don’t feel rushed or pressured as that’s been my experience in the past at weddings, and she made us feel completely relaxed and comfortable all day. She followed our lead but still made sure we got plenty of beautiful shots. She also went above and beyond to help us when we had some issues with other vendors. Everyone in my bridal party and family adored Sarah, and are obsessed with the photos and highlight footage she’s captured. She’s also extremely reasonably priced, especially for the quality you’re getting, it’s amazing and I can’t recommend her enough—book her. Also special shoutout to a second shooter she brought that day, Brandon. He brought an amazing energy and sense of humor that had us laughing and enjoying the process all day. They were a great duo and were a huge part of making my day better (like one of the best parts of the day, seriously). We had so much fun with them and are so grateful for everything they did for us.

I absolutely love LOVE. I would love to capture your love story and give you images you will cherish for a lifetime. Capturing beautiful images is important but to me capturing beautiful moments is the most important. I’m a big fan of morning walks with my family, running, cycling, hiking, good music, sunny days, last minute trips, and apple products. I love Jesus, my wife, my daughter Harper, my son Smith, traveling, experiencing new cultures, my family, and helping others. As a husband, I firmly believe in marriage and want to do my best to capture all that it means to get married and to celebrate that with you through photography.

Let me just start by saying that Adam is ABSOLUTELY worth the hype. From the moment we first spoke over the phone I knew he cared just as much about our wedding as we did. He understood how important photographic memories are to me and went above and beyond to capture genuine moments throughout the night. He brought a contagious professional yet fun energy that kept everyone feeling welcome and relaxed all day which made for beautiful photos. If you and your partner are not sure how you’ll feel in front of the camera… no worries! I can attest that Adam doubles as your professional hype man from the moment he arrives. He made me and my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera and the proof is in the photos. Adam truly does it all! You won’t regret having him as part of your day!

As the leading wedding photographers in Tampa, we specialize in capturing the genuine emotions, intimate moments, and stunning details that make your wedding day truly unique. With a blend of candid and artistic styles, our professional team ensures that each photo tells the story of your special day in a way that is authentic and timeless.

If you're getting married in Tampa, you NEED Luis at Sunset Bay Weddings! From the first time we spoke on Zoom, I knew we were in great hands. Planning a wedding from out of state felt stressful, but Luis made the whole process so easy. He was incredibly organized, kept us updated on all the details, and made sure our vision was at the center of everything he did. His calm, laid-back personality instantly made everyone comfortable—especially me, and I’m not a big fan of being in front of the camera! Our guests loved him, and he blended into the day like he was part of the family. By the time we sat down for dinner, he had already sent us a sneak peek of some breathtaking shots. We are obsessed with the photos and will treasure them forever. Luis is simply amazing!

We are a husband and wife team, Ricklin and I, that work side by side to make their clients feel at ease during their big day. We approach each couple with the intention of capturing your wedding day with a mixture of posed and candid, in-the-moment style photography, so that you can vividly recall your special day each time you look at your photography.

Brittany was stellar to work with. She was calm, kind, and collected. She knows what couples want out of their wedding photos! We ended up with phenomenal shots of the wedding and reception as well as couples’ photos. We were hoping for mostly candid/action/natural shots and she delivered. She was also flexible with location- traveled to Princeton for our engagement photos and to Philly for our wedding! Highly recommend.

Sweet Caroline Photography

  • Serves Washington, DC for additional fees

Celebrating love is the best high for me, and getting to do this job where I not only see love, but see the connection, those free-spirit giggling moments, and those ugly real moments… that is what truly keeps my world spinning. My art is all about honey-kissed warmth and sweet fire-burnin’ connections. It’s about capturing and sharing those intimate moments that feel like movie moments, real love in raw form.

We just did an engagement shoot with Caroline and we love our photos!!! They are so amazing, I added one of my faves. It’s so clear in our results how amazing and creative she is at her job. It’s funny bc in the moment it can feel so awkward and unflattering and then I see the results and i’m amazed at how great they are and how beautiful I feel in each one. Caroline has been nothing short of fantastic to work with she makes it so easy. I am certain she was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer and I am beyond excited!

So this is funny, when I was little, I was obsessed with the movie "The Wedding Planner." So much obsessed, I wanted to be a wedding planner someday. Jump into the future 20 years and my obsession with weddings has brought me to here! I love photographing weddings! From the gowns, the florals, the venue to the couple and the journey they are stepping into together! Weddings are a special day for not only the couple, but two families to come together to celebrate love and life together as one. And your photos should represent that life you are creating. Colorful, bold and full of energy. So let's plan, have fun and photograph your dang day!

Jenna photographed our engagement session and our wedding day. She was easy to work with, professional (yet fun), and had an incredible eye for detail. She captured everything beautifully- it was exactly as we envisioned. Jenna even stayed later than intended at our reception to capture dancing since our timeline got stretched. We highly recommend her for any new couples looking to get married!

Small town girl living out her passion, making client dreams reality, one wedding at a time. Weddings are busy, messy, unorganized even.

I’m here with my team to help guide you along the way and keep you stress-free and happy. Let ya tackle the day for you and make sure your day is documented from start to finish. With a passion ignited and an organized photo crew, there’s nothing to be missed and more time for you to enjoy your day, just as it should be!

Nikki is an absolute joy to work with. She was super responsive and open to ideas. She has such a creative eye and sticks true to herself while giving you what you need/want. My husband is not much of pictures guy and she worked wonders with him!! She had us laughing and relaxed and the pictures came out perfect!! We've done 2 shoots with her now and planning a third.
