Hi, I’m Zaida! I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Fredericksburg, Virginia, serving Northern Virginia, DC, Maryland, and wherever your wedding takes us. My style is natural, clean, and timeless, with beautiful portraits and plenty of candid moments. I was born in the Dominican Republic, raised in Puerto Rico, and speak English and Spanish. I’m also a wife, a mom of two, and someone who will always say yes to dessert! Family means so much to me, and photographing a day when all your favorite people come together is one of the things I love most about this work.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Zaida and her husband were incredible. I couldn’t ask for a better team to capture our big day! We discussed expectations and a shot list beforehand and they exceeded my expectations. The sneak peak arrived less than a week after the wedding and the final edits were delivered on time! Not only did they make both me and my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera, but by the end of the night they felt like family. If you’re debating which photographer to go with, Zaida is the one. Highly recommend!”

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.

If you’re debating between photographers THIS is the team you want for your event. They were very professional but SO personal and made us laugh a lot. We will definitely book again in the future.”

“Lavender Sage Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From our very first interaction, Laura and Alex were professional, comforting, transparent about pricing and expectations and open to all of our questions, suggestions and needs. The photos they captured look as if they came straight out of a magazine - they truly documented every special moment of our day so we can relive the little moments forever, as the photos are the only thing we'll have to look back on aside from the memories. After two sessions (engagements & wedding day) with them and hiring them as a gift for another couple, I know I'll be calling them again and again, for further milestones, family photos, etc! Laura and Alex are kind, talented and I truly can’t see myself ever hiring someone else for photos.”

“MEGAN WAS AMAZING!!!! We cannot sing the praises of her and her team enough. Her photos are incredible -- we literally cannot stop looking at them, and we are so grateful we selected her for the memories that we will frame on the wall and review for years to come. But even more than her amazing photography was how wonderful she is to work with! From our first Zoom call, she was immediately just so much fun to talk to. Something to think about: Your photographer follows you around your entire wedding day, so you need someone you feel comfortable with! Megan immediately put us at ease. We had a blast with her on the engagement photoshoot (we went to waterfall at sunrise!) and we had a blast planning out all our wedding shots with her. At the wedding itself, her team was so professional and endlessly kind. They never made the wedding feel awkward or had to "stop the action" for a shot. She delivered an AMAZING gallery for us in a timely manner with the most beautiful photos we've ever had taken in our lives. She captured all the special moments and managed all our family dynamics. We would book Megan again 100000 times. Also, as a queer couple, she was so affirming and made us feel so comfortable. We love you Megan 3 Can't wait to book a newborn shoot one day ;)”

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

“You should hire Victoria! Victoria and her team were the photography and videography wonders of our wedding and welcome party earlier this month. When we were looking for a photographer, we were drawn to how well her online galleries captured emotion and depth of color. We loved that she photographed the "little things" that were clearly important to her couples. We first met her during our engagement shoot. Victoria went above and beyond, staying a little later when we were running long and helping us feel relaxed and at ease when we were a little nervous. Even though neither of us felt very natural in front of a camera, Victoria was so adept at offering guidance and tweaking poses so that we looked natural. As soon as we saw our engagement pictures, we knew Victoria was going to be the perfect person for our wedding. For the two days that we worked with her and her team, they were everything we wanted. They listened to us regarding the kind of shots we wanted, and they continued to help us feel as normal as one can on their wedding day! We have only seen the teasers so far, but we already fell in love with the photos and can't wait to admire the full gallery. She and Christian (her videographer) were the best hype people you could ask for. Thank you so much for being there with us on our wedding weekend, Victoria!”

Virginia wedding photographer with a serious obsession with Netflix, true crime podcasts and YA fantasy novels. Telling the stories of two best friends in love with laughter, joy, and some really awesome dance parties.

“Sara was absolutely phenomenal! From the moment we met her, we knew she was the perfect fit for our special day. She was incredibly professional, punctual, and incredibly talented. Her ability to capture the essence of our love story in every photograph was truly inspiring. We were particularly impressed with her dedication to capturing every moment, even during a tight timeline. She effortlessly gathered our large group for family photos and ensured we had all the shots we wanted before the ceremony. Her assistant was also a fantastic addition to the team, capturing unique perspectives and candid moments. Our engagement shoot with Sara was equally amazing. The photos were stunning and perfectly captured the romantic atmosphere. We highly recommend her to anyone seeking a talented and reliable wedding photographer. We're so impressed with her work that we're already planning to use her services for future milestones in our lives.”

Let's skip the business part and jump in, heads first, into being best friends?! I love connecting with people who are in love and value the essence of relationships, those big and small moments and everything in between. To live in the moment is my motto, allowing myself to be true to my feelings and always see the bright side of every experience. I've been photographing for 3 years and making friends along the way, creating memories that will withstand the test of time with a touch of art. Let's connect and make beautiful memories!?

Amazing for our engagement pics too! I couldn't ask for more :) Thank you so much, Maria!”

I have been doing photography/weddings for the last 10 years or so. I am a mama of 2 and a wife myself. I may be a professional, but I am just like You, a person, and I strive to make you feel as comfortable as possible working with me!

“Katie at K.S. Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From our first interaction, she was friendly, approachable, and made the entire process easy and enjoyable. On the day of our wedding, Katie was so kind, positive, and incredibly attentive, capturing all the intimate moments that made our special day truly magical. She found the perfect spot for her to fake our photos and was so patient and took her time to listen to who we wanted in the photographs and was there every step of the way to make sure we had a beautiful selection/ album. She went above and beyond what I expected, she even guided me and my now husband in to various intimate poses that we felt truly capture our love and happiness. The quality of her work is incredible - the photos are beautifully detailed and skillful, thank you for allowing us to cherish and share these memories with our loved ones. We are so grateful to have found K.S. Photography and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience. Thank you to Katie for being a part of our special day and for being so wonderful throughout the process, it definitely alleviated so much worry and stress that comes with wedding preparations!”
