Great photography doesn't require you to perform. It requires you to be present. My job is to handle everything else so that when the moments happen, they're honest, and the images reflect exactly how the day felt. Your wedding day moves quickly. I stay calm so you don't have to — present enough to catch every quiet glance and joyful tear, discreet enough that you never feel watched.

Awarded Best of Zola
Fourth Photography, LLC was a wonderful choice for our wedding photography. From the start, the photographer was incredibly helpful, friendly, and punctual in all of our communications. On the day of our engagement photos, it was very windy and cold, but the photographer remained professional throughout and made sure to get all the special moments, even going the extra mile to spot a great location we hadn't noticed and encouraging us to stay for some extra photos. The final photos were absolutely beautiful and captured all the joy and details of our special day. We're so grateful for their attentive service and the wonderful, high-quality work they provided.

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer than Richard from Wedding Bug.

Are you tired of scrolling through wedding websites full of photos of shoes/calligraphy/earrings/etc. and wondering where the people are? Do you love moments more than things? If yes, you're in the right place. Forget about the table settings, instead embrace spontaneous joy and honest, natural moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
Darcy was an absolute pleasure to work with and we LOVE our photos. She truly captured the emotions of the day and the essence of all the people we love the most. Any time i look at our photos, i find myself involuntarily smiling. She captured the classic posed photos AND the precious in-between moments where people are being their most authentic selves (the face my dad makes when he's really intently listening, the hand gestures my mom uses when she's explaining something and can't find the right words, the face my mother in law makes when she's cracking herself up, the face my father in law makes right before the tears fall, and so so many more). Not ONLY are her photos amazing, but she made us feel so relaxed on the day-of. Her style is totally unobtrusive, which is just what we needed. Darcy got such amazing photos of all our guests we put 4x6" prints in our thank you cards and people were SO appreciative. She's on fridges across America. Comments we've gotten in response to Darcy's photos: "WOW your photographer is phenomenal", "this is the best photo of us in existence", "you guys look so happy!", "I feel like the photographer really captured your personalities" If capturing joy is important to you, hire Darcy. My only regret is getting her for 7 hours instead of 9.

My passion for photography grew when my daughter, Lotus, was born in 2004 and I began documenting her childhood with an eye toward catching each irreplaceable moment. Soon, friends and then friends of friends asked me to photograph their children and families. Before long, I was documenting the lives and milestones of people all over the DMV area. I realized how happy I was connecting with people and capturing special moments, and so I launched Lotus Photography in 2012 - named for my first muse. I captured my first wedding in 2016 and I was instantly in love with being a wedding photographer!

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Lotus Photography was a breath of fresh air from start to finish. The team was laid back and fun, which made it easy to talk through our vision and feel relaxed on the big day. They showed up on time and kept communication straightforward and friendly throughout the entire process. The photos turned out exquisite—each shot felt unique to us and captured the moments that mattered most. Honestly, they made the sunshine come out and brought out the best in every frame. We couldn't recommend them more highly to couples looking for a photographer who cares about getting it right.

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.

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.

Xiao and her team are absolutely amazing! They’re super professional and reliable — they even scouted our venue in advance and met with us beforehand to understand our vision, offering great suggestions for the shoot. On the wedding day, Xiao gave us clear and helpful guidance so we never felt awkward, and somehow managed to capture stunning photos even with our very tight timeline. We also loved how easy Xiao were to communicate with throughout the whole process — always patient, responsive, and reassuring. The atmosphere during the shoot felt relaxed and natural, and she managed to capture not only the big moments but also all the little details that mean so much.

I believe that the best wedding photos aren’t just images—they're feelings, memories, and stories frozen in time. I specialize in capturing authentic, emotional, and timeless moments that make couples feel truly special. With a keen eye for raw emotions and genuine connections, I create a visual narrative that reflects the real magic of your wedding day. My passion is turning fleeting moments into lasting memories, so you can relive the love, laughter, and joy for years to come. Let’s tell your love story—beautifully, naturally, and just the way it happened.

We could not recommend Demetric more. From the moment we met him, his calm, cool, and collected presence instantly put us at ease. My husband and I are not naturally comfortable in front of a camera, but Demetric made us feel relaxed, confident, and completely at home. On my wedding day—when I was definitely freaking out—his steady and reassuring energy meant everything. I spoke with many photographers before choosing one, but I knew immediately that Demetric was the right fit for us. He made not just us, but our families and loved ones, feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire day. He was so professional and efficient that he got the exact shots we needed quickly and without wasting a moment of anyone’s time. Because he made it look so effortless, I briefly wondered how the photos would turn out—but once we received them, our breaths were completely taken away. There were so many absolutely FANTASTIC photos, and we couldn’t be happier. Demetric is truly the best. We are beyond grateful for him and hope he’ll be our photographer again someday for future family photos.

The best way to tell honest stories is through keen observation. How do I know? Because I spent 15 years as a journalist before becoming a wedding photographer. By paying attention to the ways you interact with your loved ones, I capture the in-between moments that will, one day, be significant. And using a trained eye and subtle approach, I do so unobtrusively.

Awarded Best of Zola
Natasha was the first vendor we hired after choosing our venue. She is astonishing. She seamlessly blends into the crowd to take photos that capture the essence of your wedding and always manages to find the perfect picture that will make you cry, laugh, and then cry again. She has a remarkable eye. If you want to get away from stilted formal shots and remember and celebrate the actual day of your wedding, work with Natasha. She makes the entire wedding process a joy, from the initial meeting with her to the date night she set up for you to view your photos. She also does "slice of life" engagement shoots which can be a fun and casual date night that she captures with her incredible camera. Everyone has been blown away by the quality of the pictures. There is a reason that she is a top world wedding photographer. I trust Natasha completely. If you are not interested in classic boring posed photos, you can do no better than to hire Natasha Lamalle immediately. She is a true artist with a camera. You will fall in love over and over again through her photos.

When I am not behind the camera or editing photos, I enjoy short Uber rides to bottomless brunch on the weekends; right now mimosas and I kinda have a thing going on! I have a special relationship with bourbon and FIRMLY believe in putting food on the grill during late afternoons should be the norm. I am blessed to be married to the happiest person on earth (I am so serious), who just happens to double as my favorite person. She keeps me grounded and never fails to remind me how great she is.

Wow can’t say enough amazing things about this photographer, he truly was one of the highlights of our wedding. Don’t walk to book him run! He was super focused, detail orientated, bilingual, fun and laid back. He captured so many incredible behind the scene moments and my family kept saying we didn’t even see him take that picture. We were nervous about not knowing how to pose. He made us so comfortable and had amazing poses. He captured intimate moments of our families reactions during the ceremony, speeches and partying. He helped the day flow so well and we couldn’t believe how amazing the pictures were. The turn around time for the pictures was also super fast. We had a bad experience with a photographer prior who ended up being a scammer and he truly saved our wedding day!! Thank you!

It is all about enthusiasm, creativity and love. I love what I do and what I can find and capture in people and their surroundings. All these little details and grand views, I don't want to miss them. No matter a tear drop from her eyes or secretly holding hands behind the love table.

Yifei was absolutely wonderful, and we feel lucky to have her and her team capture our wedding at the George Peabody Library! She's attentive and thoughtful throughout the entire day, capturing not only all the big moments but also so many beautiful little details. She stayed with us the whole day and even brought extra styling items, including beautiful ring display kit, which was such a thoughtful touch. I really appreciated how Yifei guided and showed us how to pose throughout the day. She also has a great eye for locations and composition. This was her first time photographing a full wedding at George Peabody Library venue, but she knew how to make the most of the space and found beautiful spots and angles throughout the venue. The photos turned out absolutely gorgeous! I also appreciated that Yifei offers both photography and videography through her team. Yifei was our photographer, and she brought a separate videographer to capture the day alongside her. Wedding planning already involves so many vendors and decisions, and I honestly didn’t want to go through another complicated search for a videographer myself. Having everything coordinated through Yifei made the process so much easier and more seamless. We received a 15-second trailer, a 5-minute highlight film, and a 30 minute documentary-style wedding film, so we have so many different ways to relive the day. Yifei also truly went above and beyond for us. After the wedding, she made an extra trip to our home in another city just to take some additional photos we wanted. I really appreciated her flexibility and how much she cared about making sure we were happy with everything. On top of all of this, her pricing is reasonable, especially considering the quality of her work, the amount of time and care she puts in, and the convenience of having both photography and videography coordinated through her team. We really felt that we received amazing value. Our wedding was such a special and beautiful day, and I’m so grateful to Yifei and her team for capturing it so thoughtfully. Yifei is talented, attentive, patient, reliable, and genuinely cares about her couples. I would absolutely recommend her and her team!

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Natalie to capture our wedding day. From the very beginning, her thoughtfulness and warmth put us at ease. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, and that genuine connection showed in every photo. Each one felt like us, not a posed version of someone else’s love story. What stood out most was Natalie’s authenticity and intuitive sense of timing. She captured quiet, in-between moments that we didn’t even realize were happening, moments we now treasure most. Her creative eye is extraordinary; she has a way of playing with light, texture, and emotion that made our photos feel like art without ever losing their realness. Natalie didn’t just document our day, she felt it with us. We’re so grateful for the care and artistry she brought to every frame. These are photos we’ll cherish for a lifetime, and so much of that is because of who she is behind the camera.

With me, you'll receive true-to-color-but-better photos that are a combination of both candid and posed moments. While I am newer to wedding photography, I'm not new to capturing moments of joy, love, and tenderness between couples and their loved ones. When I'm not taking photos, you'll find me cuddled up at home with my wife and our two cats, going on ridiculously long walks, or watering my many houseplants.

Casey is so lovely to work with! Neither of us are the most comfortable taking photos, but she made it so we felt as if we were just being ourselves. The adjustments she makes are comfortable and clever, and I can’t wait to do another session with her!

Taking photos since 2016, I lives to document the stories of every lovely human I get to meet. My ideal clients are laugh-loving, sun-chasing, care-freers (bonus points if you're a foodie too).

I cannot even begin to write a review that expresses how obsessed I am with the photos and service we received from Chayil McGlotten, she truly knocked it out of the park. Chayil’s positive energy and friendly personality brings exactly the tone you need for your day. You could not find a better photographer if you’re looking for true to color, gorgeous photos, showcasing the love and story of the day, all while she also acts as the best hype woman you could ask for. I cannot recommend her and her team at Black Pepper Photography enough. We did our engagement photos at our venue, which ended up being on a fairly dreary day, but Chayil’s amazing skills still managed to highlight the beauty of the location and our excitement. She is incredibly easy to work with, quickly making us comfortable (especially my husband who is not a huge fan of taking pictures) by alternating smoothly between suggesting poses and taking candid photos if we were naturally in a good position. It was so hard to pick just a few photos for our Save the Dates when we received so many, despite having booked just a 30 minute session. On the wedding day, Chayil arrived with amazing energy, helping ease my nerves about the timeline and making sure I got every photo I wanted and then some! She also brought the videographer, who made the most stunning wedding video highlighting our special day. We have received our sneak peaks, and every photo is better than the last, they are all so flattering and gorgeous. Black Pepper Photography documented our day better than I could have ever dared to dream - thank you!!!

She spent so much time getting to know us before the wedding, and our photos very clearly reflect her attention to capturing what was important to us. We really wanted to see the joy and breadth of emotions of the day and wanted photos that reflected our wedding as vibrant and loving, and that shines through in every photo!! Kelly is also so personable and brings such a wonderful energy to all parts of the process which made us feel so comfortable and so happy to have her with us! In addition to creating a photography schedule that was invaluable and that we shaped the rest of the schedule around, she made sure to note people’s accessibility needs and to work with us closely on comfort for everyone as we had a lot of access needs. She answered every question we had happily and was just such a wonderful part of our day!! She also did our engagement photos at Great Falls and they turned out just so gorgeous. I had a lot of anxiety about how I would feel about the photos as a plus size bride and Kelly listened to my concerns and made me so comfortable and I’m so so thrilled with the photos and feel gorgeous in all of them, which I'm very grateful for!

Lindsay was the absolute best to work with. No one better! We did an engagement and wedding shoot with her. I consider myself to not be the most photogenic person, and find photos taken of me generally look unnatural, staged, or silly. Lindsay found a way to make us both feel comfortable and ourselves and the results were photos we absolutely cherish. She’s obviously seasoned in what she does and helped us figure out how to organize the time for the more formal shots in addition to the candids. She did great scouting of both locations to make sure the shots she took were well framed, interesting, had good lighting, and also reflected us as a couple. I’m a picky architect and appreciated how she knew intuitively how to bring architectural detail and composition into the photos. From the logistics standpoint, Lindsay is so responsive and professional, we never had to fret about anything. She’s the absolute best!

I’m Sara, and I’ve been a full-time wedding photographer serving the Maryland, DC, and Virginia regions since 2006. My goal is for you to be fully present during the happiest time of your life while I document your story with a natural, photojournalistic style. Most days, you’ll find me editing with a coffee in hand, but on weekends, I’m running across the DMV to capture the candid moments and soulful details you’ve poured your heart into. I’ve worked through every season and venue over the last 20 years, ensuring every memory is preserved in timeless, high-resolution imagery.

Working with Sara Vars Photography was a game-changer for our wedding day. She communicated with us in a straightforward way from start to finish, making the whole process easy and stress-free. When things didn't go as planned, Sara rolled with it and kept things moving forward. She also remembered details I had forgotten about, which made such a difference in capturing our day. Her photos are stunning and absolutely worth the investment. We couldn't be happier with the work she did for us and would recommend her to any couple looking for a photographer who is looking for quality and ease.
