Laura McMullin Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves West River, MD

Living my best life in suburban Maryland. I love art and being creative, so photography just seemed like the next step after being an actor for 15 years. Storytelling is a HUGE part of my life- whether it’s sitting around the dinner table recounting funny memories or looking at old photographs of my own family. Some of the best stories in the world were told without words. I am a D&D, gaming, and SQL nerd, I have a newfound love of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and I am a proud plant mom. Never been married before? I'm here to hold your hand.

Laura was AMAZING to work with. My fiancé and I felt so comfortable and relaxed which made our pictures come out so beautiful. Laura was the best hype women and made us feel like movie stars too. Her personality and style are unique and her creativity is everything we wanted for our pictures!

  • Serves West River, MD

We love working with smart, light hearted, fun, and easy going people. Searching out natural light wherever possible we take an energetic and vibrant approach to photography. We stay true to who we are by maintaining a creative vision throughout your wedding day.

We first met Wendy a few weeks before our wedding to do a walkthrough of the venue, and instantly fell in love with her. We knew right away that she would be a dream to work with on our wedding day, and we were right! Wendy and Liz made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day and kept us laughing and giggling right from the very beginning. The photos were so amazing! They were clear and beautiful and there was a wonderful balance of both candid and posed photos that captured the details of the day. We got pregnant soon after getting married and when our son was born, there was not a second of hesitation in choosing Wendy for our newborn photos. Once again, Wendy and Liz showed up with the same positive and high energy attitudes that we experienced on our wedding day, and the photos captured our son Charlie perfectly. We have since done a mini-shoot for holiday cards and another newborn photo shoot. Every time, Alex and I have to debate over which picture is the BEST to use because there are so many great ones. Beware - if you do a mini-shoot you will want to buy all of the photos :) Wendy and Liz are fun, passionate, caring and patient. They will do anything to get the perfect shot and put you completely at ease. They have been such an integral part of capturing important moments in our family from day one. Hopefully you will get to experience the same pleasure of working with them that we have.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Villa Li Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,590
  • Serves West River, MD

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.

Working with Villa was one of the best choices we made as part of wedding planning. During the initial planning, she was responsive, thoughtful, and considerate of our vision. She understands that most people have never planned a wedding before helped us not only plan photos, but reorganize our reception to flow better. My husband and I are very photo shy, enough so that we debated on whether or not to even hire a photographer for the wedding. Villa was so great at directing interesting, natural poses that didn't feel forced or awkward in the moment. We opt-ed not to do an engagement shoot, but if we had to do it all over again, we absolutely would with Villa. During day of, Villa was extremely detailed and organized. She arrived early to the venue to capture photos and understand the space overall. She was very good about taking photos in a way that didn't interrupt the flow of events while navigating a fairly large and irregularly shaped venue. We received a great blend of editorial and photo-journalistic images that really captured the day beautifully. She has a great eye for wide shots, close up details, and artistic framing. Our wedding day started on a sunny day at noon and ended in the evening. Villa shot great photos throughout all the lighting changes during the day including many flash photography and low light shots after the sun had set. We had a great experience sharing our wedding day with Villa and think you would too!

For me, photography is about preserving the authentic joy and genuine feelings that make your love story unique. I’m not just a photographer; I’m a storyteller, an artist, and a curator of memories. Your love story deserves to be told in a way that is uniquely yours. I take a personalized approach to each project, working closely with couples to understand their vision and preferences. The result is an individualized experience where every detail is curated to ensure your day is as special and distinctive as your love.

We were initially drawn to Jasmine's work on Instagram for our engagement photoshoot, and the experience exceeded all our expectations. From the outset, Jasmine took the time to understand our vision and review the Pinterest board I shared with her. Through thoughtful exchanges via email, she ensured every detail was accounted for. On the day of the shoot, Jasmine's warmth and professionalism immediately put us at ease. Her patience was remarkable as she listened attentively to our ideas, seamlessly incorporating them into the session. Constantly referring to our shared vision board, she ensured no pose or concept was overlooked. The speed at which we received our breathtaking photos was impressive, as was their sheer beauty. Naturally, we knew we had to entrust Jasmine with capturing our wedding day. Leading up to the event, her consistent communication and unwavering patience reassured us every step of the way. On the wedding day itself, Jasmine's level of dedication remained unwavering. Her ability to understand and execute our specific vision left us feeling confident and at ease. Once again, the turnaround time for our wedding photos was remarkable, and the results were nothing short of stunning. We are thrilled to have found Jasmine and eagerly anticipate her documenting our future family milestones. Without hesitation, we wholeheartedly recommend Jasmine to anyone seeking an exceptional photographer. Her talent, professionalism, and genuine care for her clients shine through in every shot.

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 have the coolest job in the world: I create emotional time capsules for my couples (and hopefully you too). That way, you get to be fully present on your wedding day and you get to relive that day over and over again with the same intensity, joy and love. My not-so-secret sauce is this: I get to know you. I find out what makes you and your lover tick, and then, I craft a visual story that's reflective of you. My utmost goal is to create joyful imagery for folks who want things documented exactly as they felt.

There are only good things to say about working with Maggie! We booked her for our engagement photos as well as for our wedding day. During the engagement session, she captured some true gems by helping us stay comfortable and true to ourselves. Leading up to our wedding day she was communicative, made sure she understood what our vision/priorities were, and worked well with our planner. On our wedding day, she was so fun to work with, got some beautiful shots of the big moments, and some incredible shots of little ones, too. Even just in our sneak peaks from our wedding, there are so many lovely candids amidst well-placed staged family/couple shots. She has great vision and good ideas and is fun to be around for the process! Regardless, her work speaks for itself. We highly recommend booking Maggie for your engagement and wedding photos!!

As we got closer to the date and the likelihood of the wedding needing to evolve was growing, Rachel was accessible, supportive, and understanding. She was able to capture our small intimate ceremony on our original date and it was beautiful. We were so happy with her work and her personable energy that we asked her to capture our wedding celebration that happened a year later. Rachel and Zeb, another photographer that she works with, were such a delight while they captured our June 2021 wedding. It was effortless, it felt like they were our friends attending the wedding who happened to be taking photos. They captured all the lovely candid and quirky moments while also capturing the magical staged shots. We highly recommend working with Rachel Stenger, her work is a perfect blend of artistic and realistic. Rachel and Zeb captured moments that will continue to bring a smile to our faces as the years go by. Thank you!

Growing up in rural Virginia my intro to photography came to me at 14 while breaking into abandoned houses with friends to take photos that can only be describe in retrospection as “experimental”. Fast forward a handful of years and I found myself going 'legit' and holding a BFA in photography, later finding yet more perspective and cutting my teeth shooting society events in NYC. Having now spent more years of my life taking photos than not, it’s safe to say that I’m all in.

When all of our wedding plans fell through because of COVID-19, we opted for a socially-distant micro wedding at a park. We somehow made it happen with just over 48hrs to plan! We knew we wanted a photographer to help us capture our special day, even if it didn't have all the bells and whistles, and were so lucky to have found Cassidy on such short notice. He was such a pleasure to work with. He was incredibly flexible (we changed our venue the night before the wedding) and very communicative. To top it off, our photos turned out so beautiful and made our adhoc wedding seem a bit more romantic and put together. He captured laughter and love! We loved his work and will recommend him to friends.

Born & raised on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, I've been capturing love stories for over 15 years. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for over 10 years, and raising our two sweet boys on this little sandbar we call home is a dream come true. While we are based on the OBX, we happily serve couples on the Outer Banks and Beyond, and enjoy spending the winter months in Costa Rica.

If you need a photographer, Courtney Hathaway is the one to hire! Fun, caring and talented are just a few words to begin with. My husband and I are both camera shy and from day 1 of shooting our engagement, Courtney made us feel comfortable and confident. We had a giant wedding party and a toddler on board, no prob for Courtney! Everyone has expressed to us how fun she made our wedding shoot and how gorgeous all the photos turned out. She certainly knows how to work with big groups, shy couples, and little kids! We've worked with her through pouring rain from a tropical depression (wedding day), whipping winds on a beach (engagement shoot), and a perfect warm sunset surprise engagement by the sound. Every single time, she pulls through and creates timeless beautiful galleries.

I began my photography career over 15 years ago as a photographer for a Natural History Museum. There I learned to be versatile and to shoot anything from galleries, portraits, events to fossils and fieldwork. Just like the museum, weddings also call for a versatile photographer to catch great details, ceremony and reception spaces, portraits and events. But with my wedding photography, I push for more. Inspired by photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, I follow the light and seek decisive moments—emotion and reactions.

Liz photographed our wedding this spring and we’re absolutely obsessed with the photos. She captured so many sweet organic moments of our love and with our guests, and she has such a great eye for color. Our wedding was bright and colorful out in nature, and everything just pops so well in the photos while still looking really natural. Liz was so kind and helpful and easy to work with the whole time. Highly recommend working with her for your wedding!

Effortless Authentic Storytelling Welcome! If you’re searching for romantic, airy images with bright pastel tones, or vibrant, iconic, true-to-color photography—you’re in the right place. I’m Erick Herbert, a destination wedding photographer in DC, Maryland, and Los Cabos, dedicated to capturing your love story with authenticity and ease.

We hired RickeHerbert Photography for our wedding in Maryland, and it was one of the best decisions we made! From the initial consultation to the final gallery, everything was seamless. Erick has an amazing ability to capture raw, authentic emotions without making the photos feel staged. The day of the wedding, he was professional yet so easygoing that it felt like having a friend around. The attention to detail and ability to put everyone at ease was remarkable.

I love weddings! I love how one single event can be done is so many unique ways to fit each couple and their story. My favorite things to capture during the day are the little details you incorporate to make the day truly yours. My approach is to capture emotion and as much candid interaction and love as possible on your big day while incorporating romantic and fun poses in between.

Yvette arrived early at the location without being asked to scope out spots for cute pictures, she was very kind, fun, and easy to work with. She did not even get the opportunity to meet us before the event, but she just jumped right in and started shooting. We have not seen all the photos yet but the sneak peaks we have gotten were gorgeous, and I’m sure the others will be the same.

After my first year of college studying music, I decided to take the business route. I worked for several Fortune 500 businesses and even some start-ups. Photography initially started as a hobby but it slowly became a passion as I developed a growing desire to serve others instead of quarterly sales goals. Studying various genres of photography allowed me to discover wedding & portrait photography - and the rest is history! From Washington DC to your destination event, my specialties include weddings, engagement sessions, and portrait photography.

Prior to finding out about MFields Photography, I was very frustrated with the process of booking a wedding photographer. So much so that by chance I was venting to my dental hygienist about my lackluster experience of finding a wedding photographer to capture one of the most beautiful moments of my life. Luckily she understood my dilemma since she was a newlywed. She told me all about MFields Photography and how great he was to work with. After my appointment she showed me her wedding pictures and I was SOLD. I called Myron the next day and he been making my role as a bride easy ever since. Myron is a valuable resource to have on your wedding team. Not only is he a great photographer, but he is well respected in his field. He also connected us to other reputable wedding professionals that helped us bring the magic for our wedding day. We are beyond grateful.
