We do not regret the choice of booking them for our wedding. We love a great planning company that will not rip you off. You know exactly where every dime is going thanks to Amaka and her report sheet. They also do not charge you for every little add on like other planners do. Let’s also mention that they always work with our budget, but we usually end up tipping because they're just soo goood :-). One thing we really love, is having our own contracts for vendors. Vendors will send out contracts to Amaka, and she in return will send contracts to the vendors to sign on our behalf so it made us feel very comfortable with booking the recommended vendors. It keeps us safe from vendors that cancel last minute or show up late.

I am an event planner by trade, and the only thing I did not want for my wedding was to work. I did not want to plan it myself, or worry about a single detail day of. We interviewed so many planners, and Kolena stood out among the crowd. She is organized, creative, bright, and incredibly professional as well as friendly and relatable. On the day of our wedding, Kolena handled all of the set up, coordination, and tear down without bothering my husband or I with anything. She managed family, vendors, timelines, and all the day of fires with precision and grace. And at the end of the night, when I got to my room and the decor was boxed, labeled, flowers were in water, and nothing was left to be done, I actually shed a tear. Hiring Kolena was, aside from choosing my husband, the best decision I made for my wedding. You can’t put a price on ease of mind and no stress on your wedding day.

I began my career a decade ago. As a tour photographer, I began accompanying musicians all over the world. Little did I know at that point the low lights, high energy, and late nights would translate well into my career as a wedding photographer. My start as a music photographer gave me the confidence to navigate even the most challenging and unpredictable situations, and I use the same philosophy now while photographing weddings: keep calm, stay observant, and follow the action.

As a wedding planner, we are always looking for talented photographers to recommend to our clients and Jess is someone we routinely recommend. Her approach to photography is authentic and personal and photos are always filled with so much emotion. She seems to perfectly capture couples in a way that allows you to feel like you know them and their personal story. She is perfect for couples looking to have their day captured naturally and not in a forced style. Along with her talent, Jess is a joy to work with on wedding days. She's a quit yet quick, seeming to always be where she needs to be at exactly the right moment without having a camera in your face. With so many photographers out in the market, it can be hard to stand out, but Jess has seemingly found her place in this industry and her work speaks for itself. Any couple would be lucky to have her capture their day and any vendor is lucky to work alongside her.

When I book a wedding, I want to help you capture all the moments that this part of your life includes. The emotions, the smiles, the first dance, the cake cutting. All of it. When booking me you're not only booking a wedding photographer, but you're also booking your day of advocate for your love story. Of course, you will have all your formal portraits, but i also love to capture the small moments some people miss. 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!

I’m Vanessa, a Gaithersburg, MD-based couple + wedding photographer for the wildly in-love. My life was changed by love. Seriously, rocked, rumbled, wrecked, repeat. Okay, it might sound dramatic, but my relationship with my now-husband has truly changed my world and soul for the better. We were lil baby high school sweethearts turned long distance when my husband joined the Marine Corps, and our journey together means absolutely everything to me. I know yours does too, and getting to capture it is the hugest joy and honor.

We are thrilled with Vanessa Bennish Photography! From the moment we met Vanessa during our engagement photo session, we felt completely comfortable with her. Her warm personality, professionalism, and ability to make us feel at ease in front of the camera were immediately evident. The photos she and her team captured on our wedding day are nothing short of stunning. Each shot is a work of art that beautifully reflects the emotions and details of our day. Her composition and editing style are very well balanced and give our images a timeless quality look. We are obsessed with how she and her team told the story of our wedding through their lens— their talent for capturing those intimate moments and candid emotions is unmatched. One of the unique touches that made our experience even more special was Vanessa's ability to shoot in different photography formats and mediums, including 35mm film and Polaroids. This added an extra layer of depth to our photos and truly gave the whole experience the cherry on top! Vanessa, we are immensely grateful for the memories you've given us. We've been going through our photos repeatedly, and each time, we are filled with joy. Thank you so much for everything—you were a dream to work with, and we can’t wait to schedule another session with you in the future! If you're searching for a photographer with an eye for detail, incredible creativity, and a knack for making you feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, look no further than Vanessa Bennish Photography. We are extremely happy with our choice and couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you, Vanessa! Kim & Daryl
