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!

Kelsey and Sam of Lovefusion Photography were a dream to work with. From the moment we first spoke, they were responsive, kind, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire wedding planning process. We were willing to spend a bit more on our photos because they were so important to us, and the investment was 100% worth it. Kelsey and Sam captured every special moment from our wedding day - if we look at all the photos together, it would play out our entire day perfectly. They were able to capture our emotions in each moment, and when we look back at these photos, it brings us right back to each cherished moment. These are truly the best photos, and we will treasure them forever. I couldn't imagine choosing another photographer for our engagement or wedding day. Everyone has complimented us on how beautiful and moody our photos are, which is one of the many reasons we love them so much! Kelsey and Sam are two of the kindest people and were an absolute joy to work with. We would recommend them to anyone!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

My partner and I hired Sean for our engagement photos and we were extremely impressed! He was super helpful in helping us pose and very skilled in the ways he used lighting to capture our best features. He captured really genuine moments with such skill. He also made sure the job was well done and he got all the photos that we could have wanted. We had a blast working with him! The photos are stunning and I genuinely can’t stop looking at them! My partner and I tend to feel awkward getting our picture taken but Sean created such a comfortable space for us. We would highly recommend booking Sean.

Whether you're hoping to have a traditional church-style ceremony or a magical elopement on the red rocks of Sedona, Arizona, I'm here for you! My goal is to capture the raw, wonderfully-made details of the ceremony that screams YOU.

The true, candid love you share in all its glory. These are the moments that inspire me, the moments God has given us.

Megan is AMAZING! She was very communicative and helped me with timeline things as I was planning. I did not have a day of coordinator (which I do not recommend lol) soo it was a little messy.. but Megan truly pulled through and worked through my mess. She was very thoughtful throughout the whole process before, during, and after, and I couldn’t be more thankful!

Hi, I’m Yelitza (Je-lit-sa ... don't worry! I got you). I’m a photographer, wife, nurse, fur-mom of three, new avid hiker, and a pretty darn good baker; and I’m here (dramatic pause) to tell your story. I found photography my freshman year of high school (I needed some credits in a pinch and this was it), three days in class and I was in love. Fast forward a few year (hey! hey! not too many years... Watch it! lol) and I'm still just as in love as that third day.

My fiancé and I have worked with Yelitza twice and both experiences have been fantastic! She has made us both feel extremely comfortable both times and had great communication with us both times. During our first session she photographed us with our 6-month-old puppy who is very energetic she was very patient with him and was able to get great group shots of all of us. Our latest photography session was a rooftop city session and the photos came out absolutely amazing again! I would highly recommend Yelitza!

Salman was impressively professional from what I have dealt with in the past. He made artistic suggestions and made me feel easy for natural portraits. He is creative and will go above and beyond to meet requirements and vision.

Dagment Photography 
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Shady Side, MD

Passion is what drives me in photography and real people and real moments evoke that passion. I yearn to connect with people I work with on a personal level. My goal is to make everyone I work with as comfortable as possible. The less of me you see the better! I want the photo to be derived from real, true emotion. So emitting myself as much as possible helps keep the genuine spirit of you and the moment front and center. The more you can simply enjoy your surroundings, free of worry about the fact that your photo is being taken, the better the imagery will be. If you have an interest in working together I would love to hear from you.

George Street answered my wedding day prayers! As a NYC bride I instantly got sticker shock with the starting prices of NY based wedding photography (that didn’t even include videography). I searched high and low for something more affordable, however I wasn’t willing to sacrifice quality as wedding photography was a top priority for the big day. My dreams came true when I found George Street as they had reasonable prices and a wide variety of local talent. George Street let me view the portfolios of several photographers, they all had stunning photojournalistic style photos. We ultimately selected our photographer who ended up taking the most gorgeous and sentimental photos. Our album is stunning and George Street finished editing the photos so much faster than quoted. The videography team was also extremely professional and talented. We managed to get a social teaser, highlight reel, and full length feature video from George Street. We cherish all moments captured by George Street! Our entire team was easy to work with. Our wedding was on a military base which required some extra documentation and George Street came through with ease. We are extremely appreciative of George Street’s services and cannot recommend them highly enough especially to fellow NYC brides and grooms!

She fit right in with the crowd so she got some amazing pictures. We love all of our photos but especially the ceremony shots and the candids from the reception.

Ivy & Quartz Photography

  • Serves Shady Side, MD

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.

For the past 6 years, I have dedicated myself to the art of wedding photography, capturing the love and joy of couples on their special day.

Working with Kandid Art was overall a great experience! They showed up on time and made sure we got all the shots we wanted. Though the wedding ran a bit behind, they were flexible. The photos turned out beautiful, and they got creative with the locations given the cold, rainy weather. They even got some funny shots of the kids at the wedding that are some of my favorites! The video was also good, although I don't love that they had to use like stock music for the background (I guess it's because of copyright issues with other songs?). I wish they would have included audio of the vows rather than the cheers of the attendees, so make sure you ask them to do that if you want it! I do love that they provided us with all the raw video footage though, as some of the most special moments didn't make the highlight video. Due to the event running behind, the cost increased a bit (which I was asked about after the wedding) due to the 2 photographers needing to split up to cover the shots. I wish they had asked me or the Wedding Coordinator about that on the day of so we could understand better what was the issue, but it was a minor thing in terms of communication. Overall 8/10 rating and would recommend.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Sharon on our engagement photos and couldn't be more thrilled with the results. From start to finish, Sharon was an absolute joy to work with. She was professional, and friendly, and made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire shoot. Sharon has an incredible eye for capturing the perfect shot. She listened to our ideas and preferences and also brought her own creative ideas to the table. The end result was a collection of stunning photos that truly captured the love and connection between my fiancée and me. What stood out to me the most was how much Sharon genuinely cared about getting the perfect shots. She took the time to ensure every detail was perfect, from the lighting to our poses. She was also incredibly patient and accommodating, even when we had to reschedule due to the weather. Overall, we can't recommend Sharon enough. If you're looking for a talented and dedicated photographer who will go above and beyond to capture your special moments, look no further. We are so grateful for the beautiful memories Sharon helped us create, and we will treasure these photos for years to come. Thank you, Sharon!
