Your wedding shouldn’t feel like one long photo shoot. It should feel like you. I’m Erick, most people call me Ricke and I photograph weddings throughout Washington, DC, Maryland, New York, and destinations worldwide. My work blends honest, candid storytelling with elevated editorial portraiture, creating photographs that feel cinematic, true to color, and full of life. Most of my couples tell me they feel awkward in front of the camera. That’s completely normal. I offer just enough direction to help you look and feel confident, then step back so the real moments can unfold naturally. You’ll never be expected to perform or pretend, just be fully present with the people you love.

“From our first conversation, Ricke Herbert Photography made us feel completely at ease with their kind and attentive approach. They listened carefully to what we wanted and worked with us to capture the exact shots we had in mind, from the ceremony through the reception. The photos are so clear and detailed that it feels like you're right there experiencing the day all over again. As the mother of the bride, I couldn't be happier with the special pictures they took of my daughter and me—they're absolutely beautiful. Ricke's team was professional, personable, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. Thank you so much, Kat!”

“If I could give above a 5 star review, I would. Kelyn, with Timeless Video, brought the energy you want on your wedding day. We felt so supported and comfortable having her be a part of our day. Hiring Timeless and having Kelyn was hands down one of the best decisions we made on our wedding day. From our very first conversation, she was very warm and professional. On the day itself, she felt more like friends than a vendor. Ultimate hype person and made sure every special moment was captured beautifully. The final video blew us away. The way they pieced together the emotions, laughter, tears and every little in between moment was honestly magical. You always hope you can relive your wedding day with footage and we sure did! Our family and friends haven't stopped raving about how incredible Kelyn was and how our footage turned out--also how much of a BLAST she had during Greek dancing!

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend.

We could tell he understood our vision from the get go. During our micro wedding photoshoot, he arrived early and did a full scan of the location to make sure we got the most optimal lighting and angle. This was the first time my husband and I ever took photos together so Justin's jokes and guidance really helped us. He made us feel so comfortable during the photoshoot which showed in the final results; we have so many candid photos that we love! I would totally recommend him to anyone that is looking for a hard working and fun photographer!”

“Bhanu at Eternal Vistas showed he genuinely cared about making our day perfect. He was involved in planning every step of the wedding with us, and even monitored the forecast to suggest we order umbrellas last minute; this was a thoughtful touch that saved us. There were so many thoughtful touches that will not fit in this review (preparing a wedding outline, checking in on our mental health/stress levels when planning, suggesting a song to listen to while we looked at photos, and so many more things!!). We received sneak peek photos in less than 24 hours, and we were absolutely floored by the quality. They are beyond our wildest dreams. We had a main photographer, a videographer, and an assistant (an unexpected bonus assistant, I’ll add). Their attention to detail is clear in every shot, and the whole experience felt effortless. The value we got from working with them was outstanding and truly worthwhile. I could not recommend them enough to any couple looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond. My husband and I are grateful for Eternal Vistas and their passion for what they do. Thank you thank you thank you.”

I’m a curly-headed, Old Bay-loving, caffeine-dependent Marylander with a soft spot for Southern charm (and a colorful Lilly Pulitzer print or two).

I had a very particular lighting style, and Jen listened to my wishes and used the most amazing light angles and edited the photos in the was I had asked for. Prior to the wedding we had phone calls and meetings to make sure we had a set list of the photos I wanted, so that the day of nothing would be missed and it was stress free. Wedding day Jen captured every moment from getting ready, to the ceremony, family portraits, couples photos and even dances at the reception. Jen is kind, caring, respectful and professional.

I am a photographer based out of Baltimore, MD. I specialize in weddings, engagements, and portraits of all kinds. I have been taking pictures all my life, but my real photography journey started when my lovely wife (girlfriend at the time) Emma surprised me with a camera on our first Christmas together. She knew that I'd been itching for one for a long time, so she worked behind the scenes, getting all of our friends to pitch in for it. The look on my face was well worth it . I have fallen in love with the process of capturing moments of love and connection. I feel so lucky to be present for so many important moments, from pregnancy announcements to surprise engagements, to annual family portraits to beautiful weddings.

“Anu, from start to finish, treated us like family and made our day even better than we could’ve imagined. We self planned, and unfortunately had to rely on his years in the industry to guide us on timeline. He offered his insights willingly and was never frustrated at our type b planning. Throughout the day, he made us comfortable in front of the camera & often had my microwedding laughing - which made these pictures truly perfect. He captured every little moment and unlocked a lifetime of iPhone stickers (iykyk) We also added on his Polaroid package and are in love! Getting to relive the night the next morning over breakfast was such a delight.”

A lifetime of memories can occur in a single day. After months, perhaps even years of planning, you deserve to remember your "best day yet" through vibrant and meaningful portraiture.

“I have to give all the credit to my wife for starters. She found Rachel and had such a clear vision for what she wanted our photos to feel like. Rachel not only saw that vision, she elevated it in every way. From our engagement shoot at One Eyed Mikes in Fells Point, to our wedding day on May 3rd, Rachel brought her creativity, professionalism, and genuine care to every moment she captured. The engagement session was when I first realized we had something special, Rachel used light so intentionally and understood exactly what we were going for. The results were stunning, and it made booking her for the wedding an easy decision. Fortunately, the stars aligned, and we were lucky enough to have her shoot our wedding. On the wedding day, Rachel was phenomenal. She had scouted photo locations around Mt. Vernon, including a walk through Flower Mart. She knew exactly where to take us to make the most of our surroundings. We also captured moments at Hotel Revival, and her attention to detail made everything run so smoothly. She took the time to understand what we wanted and helped us feel comfortable and confident from beginning to end. We’ve already received a few sneak peeks, and they honestly left us speechless. Rachel captured us in a way that felt so true to who we are. One photo in particular stood out to me not because I looked good in it, but because she somehow captured the exact energy and emotion of the moment. That’s a gift. I can’t recommend Rachel enough. She matched our style, exceeded our expectations, and brought my wife’s vision to life in the most beautiful way. If you’re looking for a photographer who truly gets it, someone who listens, prepares, and delivers more than you hoped for, Rachel Dibs is the one.”

Our families are the most important people in our lives so seeing Brendan treat them with such respect and understanding made our wedding experience that much better!!

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 truly don’t even know where to begin with how incredible Jasmine and her team were. From the very first conversation to the final goodbye on our wedding night, they were everything you could hope for in a photography team - calm, kind, organized, and unbelievably talented. On the wedding day, Jasmine had this effortless way of directing us that never felt stiff or staged. She somehow managed to make everything feel natural and fun, even during portraits (which we were nervous about going into). Her team blended into the background in the best way possible, capturing every candid moment without ever disrupting the flow of the day. Looking back at the photos, it genuinely feels like they bottled up the emotion of the entire wedding - the quiet in-between moments, the laughter, the happy tears, the energy on the dance floor. Every image feels alive and intentional, like a story we get to relive over and over again. They were also incredibly organized and on top of every detail, keeping things moving smoothly while somehow making it all feel completely stress-free for us. That balance of professionalism and warmth is rare, and they nailed it. We are beyond grateful we had Jasmine and her team with us. These aren’t just wedding photos—they’re memories we’ll have for the rest of our lives, captured better than we ever could have imagined.”

For our engagement photos, I was nervous to be in front of the camera, but she made us feel comfortable, made us laugh and got beautiful shots! It was awesome to have her for the rehearsal dinner, she took great photos of us and our guests. On our wedding day she was the best! She got a ton of wonderful shots and some unique ones of us and our families as well. 10/10 I would recommend her to EVERYONE!”

“We had the pleasure of working with Nicole for our wedding in January 2024, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From our initial consultation, it was clear that she was not only professional but also genuinely passionate about capturing our special day. Throughout the entire process, Nicole was incredibly organized and attentive. She took the time to understand our vision and offered valuable suggestions that enhanced our overall experience. Nicole truly made us so comfortable in a position we felt so vulnerable in. On the wedding day, she arrived promptly and worked seamlessly with our other vendors. The photos are absolutely stunning! Nicole has a remarkable eye for detail and captured every moment beautifully. From candid shots to posed portraits, each image reflects the joy and emotion of the day. She took our vision of a cozy winter wedding and turned the photos into our dream. Nicole was also very innovative in coming up with a beautiful rain plan as we were expecting snow rather than rain on our special day. The editing was top-notch, and we received our photos in a very timely manner. Considering the exceptional quality of the work and the level of service provided, Nicole offers great value for money. We felt that every penny spent was worth it for the memories we now have to cherish forever. She truly had a package for every budget! Working with Nicole was a highlight of our wedding planning. Her expertise and friendly demeanor made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. Nicole was ultimately the ring leader of the day who kept the ball rolling. We highly recommend her to any couple looking for beautiful, high-quality wedding photography to match all personalities. Thank you, Nicole, for capturing our special day in such a magical way!”

“We trusted Rachel with our oddity inspired engagement photos in Baltimore and we truly were overwhelmed by how incredible they turned out. She perfectly captured our energy, vibes, and style. The photos feel effortless, timeless, and exactly us. I loved the supplementary black and white edits and polaroids. We are photographers by trade and also are photographed often, so it was important that we find someone who could make our shoot feel unique and personal. Rachel killed it with her impeccable eye and attention to detail. These will forever be some of our favorite images of all time.”

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

“From our first conversation with Sam at Creation4use, we knew we had found our photographer. He was extremely accommodating and professional, and somehow managed to understand our vision after just a short time together. Sam brought such warmth and investment to every moment of our elopement; he wasn't just behind the camera, he was genuinely part of our day. His artistic eye and experience really showed in every frame, capturing details we didn't even know we wanted. We couldn't imagine a better person or photographer to have by our side, and his work exceeded anything we could have hoped for. If you're looking for someone who combines technical skill with real care for your special day, Sam is your photographer.”

“From the moment we first spoke about our wedding plan with Silver Orchard Creative, we knew we were in good hands. Christine's communication style is very clear, calming, and professional. It was clear from the start that she is highly experienced with every possible type of wedding. We shared with her that some parts of our schedule and venue were out of the ordinary, but she was never phased, only excited! The quality of her work is simply stunning, the pictures truly blew us away and are some of our most cherished possessions. Beyond the incredible photos, something that made working with Christine extra special was how she treated us before the wedding and on our wedding day itself. During that day her experience put us so at ease, with Christine going above and beyond, communicating with other vendors, helping bridesmaids, while scouting the most beautiful spots on the property to capture incredible and diverse photos. Christine has a fantastic attention to detail and made my husband and I, who aren't natural posers, look incredible. She was even willing to travel to New England for our wedding, and all of our other vendors were so impressed with her work and her kindness. Silver Orchard Creative truly exceeded our expectations and we couldn't recommend them more highly.”

Welcome! I’m Jenna Coyle. I’m a photographer working and living in Baltimore. I have always been drawn to art, but portrait photography captured my heart. I find joy in providing my clients with wonderful memories they can cherish for a lifetime.

“We had a wonderful experience with Jenna as our wedding photographer. Jenna kept everything feeling relaxed and straightforward, from our very first call, to the final prep call, to the wedding day itself. She showed up early, brought an extra assistant without charging us extra, and rolled with the craziness of the day while keeping calm and on schedule. She was flexible with taking photos of us outside, inside, with a donkey, with our dogs, with family and friends, and then when the sunset cast a golden light on the field next to the venue she suggested that we take advantage and take some cute couples photos in the golden light! Her price was super affordable, the quality of the work is perfect, and we are beyond delighted.”
