Missy and Nicole were amazing! Working with them felt so natural and for the first time I felt so beautiful in front of a camera! My makeup was a little messed up from happy crying at our ceremony and they assured me it would not be a problem. Sure enough we got the photos back and they were BEAUTIFUL. They looked so natural and I did not see any of the makeup flaws I had that day. I think it is important to also mention that having two photographers is a game changer! They caught some pretty incredible moments from all different angles during our reception and worked so well together to create some unique/beautiful photos. These ladies are incredible and we cannot thank them enough for catching the best moments from our day on camera! We will definitely be recommending them to everyone we know. Thank you both so much again!

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.

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer to join us on this incredibly special day. Michael was calm, funny, and thoughtful the whole day and yet he was sharply on task — keeping us on time (to the literal minute) and making sure every last photo we wanted, and then some, were captured. But it went beyond the day itself. Michael scoped out our venue months ahead to be prepared, he was in constant touch with us on the weekend of, and his wife Kara joined us on the day to make sure everything and everyone was accounted for. I HATE having my photo taken and he made it painless and even fun. With no hesitation, work with Michael! PS: Ask him about his Elmo voice. :)

I so look forward to speaking and hopefully working together to make your dream day a reality!

Veronica is INCREDIBLE! From the moment we met her at our engagement session, we knew we made the right decision! She came prepared with pose ideas and made us feel comfortable, even though it was our first time getting professional photos done. She gave us a timeline for when we’d receive photos back, and sent us a few sneak peaks the same night! She communicated with us between the engagement session and our wedding, helped put together a timeline for the wedding day, and made sure to capture everything I had envisioned! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Veronica for any photoshoot, and plan to hire her again in the future for photos!

When we started talking about what we wanted out of a wedding, we decided an intimate ceremony was best for us. We wanted to find someone who could capture the little details of our day without the typical "posed" photos. We are so lucky to have come across Josie at Give. We had multiple Facetime conversations with her and from the beginning, we knew she would be great to work with. She was one of those people we just clicked with and immediately understood what we wanted: Her style of photography, her personality, the charitable donations, etc etc. The day of our wedding was super humid (yay Maryland in August), but she did not skip a beat and did not rush us from one point to another - we tried out some posed and "classic" photos but overall she got the "documentary/candid" styles we were looking for. We are so happy with all the photos she took and grateful to have such gorgeous memories to look back on!

Not only does he take beautiful photos (we have SO many favorites!), every step of the process was fun and absolutely perfect. He is very professional, accommodating, and incredibly detail-oriented, thoughtful and organized--perfect traits for a wedding photographer! Before coming to the wedding he went out of his way and asked if I was hungry or needed something from the store which was very considered. We truly couldn't have imagined a better photographer for our wedding day! We cannot thank and praise him enough, and we feel so lucky to have found him for our wedding. I would have a very hard time letting a friend of mine choose a different photographer.

Hi! I'm Kelly. A mom to two sweet girls and wedding photographer in Northern Virginia! First, congratulations!! You are in such an exciting time of life. I know wedding planning comes with a lot of excitement and A LOT of choices. It's my honor to document this important day in your life!

Kelly is talented but equally as sweet, kind, and professional- which is the whole package that you want in your wedding day! Not only does she take the time to get to know you and your vision as a couple so she can customize her shooting, she is also so detail oriented and wants to make sure you love every single picture. She will move a stray hair, guide your posing, do the pose herself to help you understand it, etc. She is also a great communicator and will become friends with all of your important people at your big day (other vendors, your parents, etc). You can’t go wrong with having Kelly at your big day!

Timeless. Intimate. Organic. My name is Molly Majher (pronounced like "major") and I am a wedding photographer serving VA, WV, MD and more! I'm a wife, mom, and LOTR & HP fangirl. When you hire me as your wedding photographer you don't just get a person who shows up with a camera, but you get someone who you can be yourself around, who answers your questions, helps create your wedding day timeline, holds your umbrella when it rains and calms your nerves. I do all this while taking stunning photos for you to remember all the big and little moments of your wedding day.

I WOULD GIVE MOLLY 10 STARS IF I COULD. First and foremost, Molly was SO easy to work with; she is a genuinely kind person and we loved her instantly. We had a budget so she worked with us and helped create our timeline in order to maximize photos within our allotted time. She made everyone feel comfortable, was quick to direct us for poses/candids, and was very flexible when the family made it hard to coordinate for photos. Professionalism 10/10, Photos 100/10, Communication 10/10. I will forever be grateful that I was able to get her to photograph our wedding. You will not regret having her capture life's most precious moments for you.

Hey! It's me- your friendly neighborhood photographer! I am a Pisces. They say we're romantic and creative souls, so I guess it was written in the stars that I'd become this person. If you're into enneagrams, I am a 4- but this is new territory for me so I am not sure how I feel about that yet. They say I am good at this photography stuff and people seem to like me, so here I am!

Celeste was so easy and fun to work with we absolutely love our wedding pictures and I did a private personal shoot as well and had an amazing time she was serious and her job while having an amazing time keeping me smiling and laughing. Will for sure book again!!

Heyyy there! I’m Kiersten, the founder and creative force behind the lens. Born and raised in West Virginia, this beautiful state is what I call my home. I’ve developed a love for traveling across the United States, and I’m excited to expand my adventures internationally in December 2024.

On your wedding day, my focus is on documenting your authentic selves, from those emotional first looks to cozy moments during golden hour. And I’m all about the pops of color!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kiersten for my wedding, and I can't recommend her enough. From the moment we met, her professionalism and passion for photography were evident. She took the time to understand our vision and was super easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. On the big day, Kiersten was a true pro—capturing all the special moments without being intrusive. She managed to blend into the background while still getting all the key shots we wanted. The candid shots really stood out. The final photos blew us away. The quality and creativity were top-notch, and we received countless compliments from our friends and family.

At the heart of my process, I believe in being a calming presence who gives you room to be the most genuine version of yourself in front of my camera, gently guiding you with prompts while capturing sophisticated portraits and true moments. As a bride, you know how fleeting the moments of your wedding day will pass you by. So rather than worrying if you’re missing any of it you value being present, and will hire a photographer who will allow you to do just that. This trust grants you the ability to live in the moment while we’re documenting them for you telling the story of your relationships with a gentle authenticity.

Amanda is a perfect choice to capture all of your best moments, no matter the occasion! Every vendor and the bride and groom appreciated her generous demeanor and skill set. She is a very nice person, too, that continues to care long after the contract ends!

It is so nice to have you here! I am a Charlottesville Washington DC and Virginia Wedding Photographer who creates artful film-inspired imagery with a combination of timeless editorial and hybrid candid photography that recreates tangible memories of what matters most: you and your authentic love story. With a passion for wanderlust and most importantly my family, I know that life's most cherished moments are fleeting. It's an honor to create emotional love-story centered heirlooms that can be passed down for generations to come.

Working with Bethany from the very beginning was an absolutely incredible experience. Wedding planning can be stressful, but she took out 100% of the stress when it came to photography. Bethany is so energetic, organized, and kind. Words cannot describe how impressed I was by her attention to detail, her decisive and quick thinking as she arranged setups for poses and came up with ideas for shots in a matter of seconds. My entire bridal party was even amazed by her eye for detail and skillful work as she captured portraits and moments from the day. I felt like I was able to sit back and relax, knowing she had everything under control. She was by far my favorite professional I worked with while planning my wedding. I truly cannot recommend Bethany or her work highly enough.
