Elaine is an absolute joy to work with! She selected a great site and time of day to take the photos. She arrived promptly and gave good direction for framing the shots, which came out wonderfully and much to our satisfaction.

Sam Hurd Photography 

5.0

Washington, DC
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $5,000

My style is distinct, a result of both my unrelenting commitment to my craft and complete trust from clients who commission me. You’re not going to read about any awards, badges, or “top 10 lists” because what matters is you’re in love with the work that you see and are ready to trust me entirely to do what I do. This trust drives me to find the perfect balance between creative experimentation and honest documentation.

Can't recommend Sam enough. Not only is his work some of the best I've seen and is well known around the world, but he is also just super chill to work with. He lets videographers do their thing and is very easy going with the couples and vendors he works with.

Urbane Aperture

Washington, DC
  • Fine art style

As a photographer based in Washington DC, one of my many distinctions is that I translate love language, visually. I believe real and right relationships are found in bonds. The weak and strong ones we make throughout the timeline of our lives. If we’re a match, through my photography, I’ll aim to bring forth beautiful and iconic memories that find a home where the heart is. Curating every moment of emotion that rises up within you or the ones you care about the most. To learn more, reach out with a friendly "What's up?" and let me handle the rest. Take a look around or browse through a featured collection on my website.

I loved working with Profit for both my engagement shoot and my wedding. He is so fun, full of great ideas, and very professional. I felt like he used our time very efficiently and didn't waste a moment. I would definitely hire him again for another shoot in the future.

Ashley Boyan Photography 
Washington, DC
  • Fine art style

I'm a fine art destination wedding photographer; intensely passionate about preserving those fleeting moments, intimate details and loved ones throughout a wedding that make the day unforgettable. I believe there is a delicate balance between letting the day unfold while supporting you through the process to create a lovely collection of meaningful keepsakes. I married my now business partner and best friend of twelve years on a warm summer evening in August beneath two immense magnolia trees. We currently spend our time between an old farmhouse in the heart of wine and hunt country and Lake Norman with our dog Endo, two cats and two horses.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Xiao for both my graduation and couple photos, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the results! From the moment we met, Xiao made us feel completely at ease. She’s warm, easy to talk to, and full of creative ideas. What I loved the most is her ability to capture spontaneous, natural moments — nothing felt forced or awkward. She has a sharp eye for light, framing, and timing, and the results speak for themselves: the photos turned out stunning, with very few unusable shots. Every image looked polished yet authentic. She also works incredibly efficiently — we wrapped up the shoot quickly without ever feeling rushed, and she delivered the final photos faster than expected.

Rachel Walisko Photography

Hi there, I'm Rachel, a portrait and wedding photographer based in Washington DC and NYC. With a BFA in Photography and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Master's degree in Film Studies from the University of Edinburgh, I have spent over 15 years honing my skills and deepening my understanding of photography as an art form. When I'm not behind the camera, I’m often delving into the world of mid-century design, watching films and going on hikes with my husband, Jamie.

We couldn’t be happier with Rachel and her expertise in shooting our wedding!! My/husband's details came together last minute and Rachel was patient and thorough throughout it all. Our setting went from forest to under a tent with inclement weather and Rachel was still able to get incredible shots. I couldn’t be more pleased with her work and style. I would highly recommend her and would love for our family to use her for future events! Thanks so much for everything Rachel!!!

There's a feeling you get when someone you love smiles, when they laugh, when they take your hand in theirs. Those feelings are what I seek to capture. I combine the physical beauty of a moment with candid emotions to create heart-warming images that bring you back into the moment all over again.

Audrey was a dream photographer to have at our wedding! In addition to being so personable and having such a wonderful personality, she's an extremely talented artist!! Her photos are absolutely stunning and she really captures the moment. Looking through my photos I feel the excitement of that day! She is so sweet and made everyone feel so comfortable taking photos that the time flew by. I also felt like she was everywhere capturing all our moments -- I don't know how she did it all! We also received a lot of compliments about Audrey and how wonderful she is. Would definitely love getting to work with Audrey again.

If I had to describe myself in five words it would be: food, exercise, animals, travel, and art (not in any specific order). You know you have found the right career when you can honestly say you do it for the passion, for the excitement, and for the love of documenting someone’s precious memories. Photography has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I have been photographing weddings in the DMV for the past eleven years.

I can't recommend Cicely and Jason enough. They were communicative, collaborative, and just genuinely great people. They were really open to trying out anything that we really wanted to do and brought plenty of experience and helpful ideas to the table from the start. Their ability to capture the tiny details and a much broader sweeping view of our day really was the sell for us. And they weren't afraid to really get into the middle of a rager and capture moments you'd have never known about otherwise. Photography is so embedded in capturing your day that having creative people you really enjoy working with is critical. Years later, Cicely and I still message each other to check in. I genuinely can't express how great getting to know and work with them was for us. Cheers.

I've really come to value the unexpected, intimate moments that take place on a wedding day. The hug your mom gives you before you leave your dressing room. The tear that falls down his cheek when he sees you walking down the aisle. The way the two of you lean your heads together during the toasts. This day is about more than the flowers and the shoes you chose. It's about celebrating the start of a new family. It's an honor to play a part in such a significant day and I hope you'll choose me to be a part of yours!

Brigitte is THE ABSOLUTE BEST. Her keen eye and sense of detail, added with her bubbly personality and ability to make you feel like her best friend legitimately is the perfect recipe for the best photographer. She is talented, down-to-earth, and full of so many amazing ideas and qualities that you NEED in your photographer. If you hire her, you will definitely not be disappointed.

I am passionate about capturing each couples unique story and their one-of-a-kind love. We are a husband and wife team plus our best man! When Jeremiah and I got engaged and started planning our wedding, the search for a photographer & videographer was a grueling tasks. I kept saying, “If ONLY Jeremiah & En could capture our wedding,” but that was totally unfeasible be as one is the groom & the other the best man. Then the light bulb went off & Til Death Media was born!

I will forever recommend Till Death Media! Kira helped me out of a bind when my photographer backed out less than 2 weeks before my wedding. Even though TDM wasn't able to photograph my wedding on such short notice, Kira spent hours searching for and interviewing local photographers on our behalf, eventually finding someone who was both a perfect match and well within our budget. Kira helped us edit and finalize our itinerary, organize which photographs we wanted taken, and even helped us pinpoint exactly what kind of editing style we wanted done - all things that I should've had sorted out with my previous photographer, but I was unaware of due to poor communication. When she stepped in, I felt like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders and I don't think I could've been happier with our wedding or our photographer. :) I 100% recommend Kira and TDM!

I'm a wedding photographer based in Virginia, who travels the world capturing couples unique stories on a mix of film and digital. I'm always ready to travel & continually inspired by my clients & the stunning locations I’m grateful to explore each year. When not working or traveling, you'll find me spending quality time with my husband, my twin boys and rescued pup, Lana. Obsessed with stonewashed linen, puppies & minimal design, my ideal evening is a relaxed alfresco dinner with friends at a farm table overflowing with wine bottles and lots of laughs.

Vicki is a truly gifted photographer. Her composition, lighting, and color tones are always immaculate. Her presence on a wedding day is professional, poised, and unobtrusive. Her eye for details and ensuring her subjects look their absolute best ensures every single image she delivers is worthy of framing in your home. I am absolutely thrilled at every chance we have to work together and highly, highly recommend her!

My name is Rebecca, but some call me Becks. I'll let you decide which one to call me! I am a lifestyle and wedding photographer based out of Alexandria, VA, but I am ALWAYS looking for an excuse to travel. I'm inspired by human connections, love and friendships. I live for adventure, goofiness and optimism. When I’m not working, I can be found working out with my husband, traveling or at a grocery store/farmers market. Dark chocolate, workout clothes, ice cream, sushi and vegetables are a few of my favorite things.

We cannot recommend Rebecca enough. Aside from the absolutely stunning photos she took, she was a wonderful, positive force of energy to have around. She was also very calming especially when things got hectic with our zoom connection and instructed us to take deep breaths so as not to look tense in the photos. We never had a photoshoot done before but we instantly felt comfortable being candid with her. She knew exactly how to guide us through various poses and also listened to all our requests ex. close ups of the bouquet, of our rings, etc. It was small things like carrying my bag from location to location, making sure I was comfortable in my heels, and telling us to dab our sweat (humid August day!) that really made working with her a true pleasure. She definitely exceeded our expectations and we will never stop recommending her. Thank you, Rebecca!
