Brennan Rieder Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (11 reviews)

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $6,200
  • Serves Stuarts Draft, VA
  • Offer

I specialize in creating anxiety-free photography experiences for couples who want beautiful wedding documentation without the stress of being in front of a camera. My approach is editorial yet unscripted — I design a photography timeline that feels natural to you, then capture authentic moments as they unfold. The result is a gallery that reflects how your wedding actually felt, not just how it looked. I work exclusively with design-driven celebrations where thoughtful details and genuine emotion take center stage. My clients value artistry, discretion, and a photographer who anticipates moments before they happen.

I did 3 separate shoots over the course of my wedding season with Brennan (engagement, boudoir, and wedding day), and it was the best choice I could’ve made. Brennan truly has a gift - she’s an intuitive photographer who knows how to get “The Shot” and she made me feel comfortable and natural in front of the lens. Aside from her photography skills, she’s an amazing communicator. I loved seeing her interact with my family on the wedding day - she has the BEST personality and everyone loved her. Brennan goes above and beyond. She’s prompt. She’s versatile. She listens. Choose Brennan and thank yourself for it.

Your wedding day is a whirlwind of family and friends, vows and true love, good food and of course lots of cake! With a wedding photographer, all the beautiful moments can be captured and remembered forever. Pop of Molly Photography focuses on candid photography encapsulating the bride and groom and wedding guests enjoying the moment and being their own beautiful selves.

Hi! My name is Jo Mahaney. In addition to being a wedding photographer, I have become a professional boutonniere pinner, bonus bridesmaid, master timeline creator, manipulator of light, and emotional confidant. Primarily, I am there as your wedding photographer to ensure that--although your memory will fade with time--these photographs serve as vivid reminders of the joy in the season and the relationships that matter most. Photography by Jo began back in 2014 when I shot my first wedding for my roommates, while still in college. That year, I fell in love with weddings and have focused on those and other major family milestones ever since.

If you are considering having Jo as your photographer for your engagement shoot, wedding shoot, family shot and more.. DO IT! Jo is incredible at what she does! My now husband and I never kissed until our wedding day and she helped us feel comfortable with each other and have fun at the same time. She is so easy to work with, on time, super professional but not stiff. She is so relational and kind. Her quality of work is out of this world! Do it. Do it. DO IT! YOU WONT REGRET IT!

I'm a Virginia girl, the oldest of three kids, and happily married to a Virginia guy. I've been crazy about photography since childhood, perfecting my style since elementary school! Decades later, I am thrilled and honored to be capturing priceless moments for my clients as they celebrate their weddings. When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me reading adventure stories to my kids, canning fruits and veggies from our garden, assembling vibrant bouquets of wildflowers, or planning campouts and travels for our family. I'm a sociable introvert who recharges by spending time outside, reading, and editing photos with a cup of tea!

Melinda, owner of Happy Finch Photography, is amazing. She took our wedding photos in October 2018. She was so professional to work with and made taking pictures for our wedding so easy. It took 3 weeks to get the pictures back and every picture was given to us in color and black and white. The pictures were so vivid and the colors just popped. We loved our pictures so much we hired Melinda to take family pictures for us a year later. If you’re looking for a photographer in central VA go with Happy Finch Photography.

I am a wedding and portrait photographer serving Virginia and beyond. I have been taking photos since I was able to hold a camera and am so incredibly passionate about capturing moments and storytelling through the art of photography!

From the moment we reached out to Megan for our engagement photos, we were impressed by her clear, prompt, and fun communication style. Megan has a bubbly, celebratory energy that made the photo session an absolute joy. The final photos were absolutely gorgeous - Megan has a great eye for beautiful shots. While we ultimately went with a different photographer for our wedding day due to budget constraints (he is a friend of a friend who is a professional and offered us a discount we couldn’t not accept), I am confident Megan would have done an incredible job capturing all the special moments of our big day. Her affordable and stunning portfolio make her an excellent value for any couple planning their wedding.

I’ve fostered a passion for visual storytelling for as long as I can remember! I love creating emotive albums of photographs that tell your organic story and help eternalize “once in a lifetime” moments. Timeless, authentic, and inspiring.

Tori was hands down my favorite vendor to work with throughout our entire wedding process. She is incredibly thoughtful, talented, and truly goes above and beyond in every way. She traveled quite a distance into DC for our engagement shoot, which was included in our package, and that day actually turned into a surprise elopement for us. Without hesitation, she extended the session and captured the entire day so beautifully. It felt magical and it is still one of my favorite memories. Having her there truly felt like a gift. Her work is absolutely stunning. I love how timeless her photos are, and you can tell there is real thoughtfulness behind every single shot she takes. Nothing feels forced or overly posed. She captured so many genuine moments that we will treasure forever. On our wedding day she showed up and went above and beyond again. Not only did she bring a phenomenal second shooter, but she stepped in more than once to help keep things calm and running smoothly when our wedding coordinator was unfortunately very unorganized. She was more than just a photographer that day. She helped calm my nerves and truly felt like someone in our corner. Another thing that completely blew me away was her turnaround time. We received our album so quickly, which was incredible considering she is busy shooting weddings almost every weekend. I was honestly shocked at how fast she delivered such a beautiful gallery. She made the entire process feel easy and stress free from beginning to end. I truly cannot recommend Tori enough, and if we ever move back to the area I would book another shoot with her in a heartbeat. She was an absolute godsend and such a special part of one of the best days of my life.

Honey Ridge & Lace Photography

  • Serves Stuarts Draft, VA

Photographs always made me curious. The stories behind the photo often sparked ideas for my book writing. Being a 90's baby I grew up using Kodak film, my moms point-and-shoot, and polaroid. My love of this art grew and I bought my first Canon when my oldest was 3. For awhile I captured our family growing, memories, a few newborns here and there, and brand content. In 2020, I began capturing life through the lens for others. It brought beauty back to my heart, and independence to my life as a mom. When I shot my first wedding I became absolutely hooked and knew I wanted to capture more of those memories for your future generations to cherish.

Honey Ridge & Lace Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. From the moment we met Mel, we knew we were in good hands. Her authentic and kind communication style immediately put us at ease, and she was a great listener, really understanding what we wanted from our wedding photos. The quality of their work is truly unique, timeless, and beautiful. Mel made me feel so relaxed and beautiful on our wedding day, and she brought our vision to life perfectly. She's such a creative and genuinely nice person - I can't imagine working with a nicer photographer. I cannot recommend Honey Ridge & Lace Photography more highly!

I was lucky enough to connect with Becca on Instagram. We had one call and I just knew she was the photographer for us. I didn't meet with anyone else, you spend all day with your photographer so you really want to connect with them, and we hit it off right away. Becca's energy is so lively, loving, and genuine. She made everyone feel at ease and happy- so many folks- from our guests, family, and our wedding party- RAVED about her during and after! We had a wonderful engagement shoot so I knew the wedding day would be the same. Honestly, I am so grateful people in my life had the opportunity to meet Becca- I think she really set a bar for folks in their minds of what a wedding photographer should be like! When she walked in on the wedding day I was so excited to see her and I felt the same all day long. If you want a photographer who will liven up the group, bring their A-game, connect with you and your guests, deliver your images quickly, and feel more like a friend than a vendor- Becca is the photographer for you!

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 ;)

Hey, hey my name is Ali. NY-based, but working nation-wide, I'm a wedding photographer who captures experiences, genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizes precious memories. I focus on visualizing how it felt to live your wedding day, while also crafting editorializations simply for the sake of intentional, living art. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the most amazing time working with Ali! We had kind of a long engagement and we initially started working with Ali over a year and a half before our wedding to get our engagement photos done. Not only were the photos beautiful, but Ali made us feel super comfortable and at ease throughout our session. Leading up to our wedding day, Ali was amazing at coordinating the day of timeline with our coordinator and making sure that all the elements that were important to us were included so that we had enough time to capture the moments. One of my favorite things about working with Ali is her calm presence. Every time I was stressed about something in the planning process about the timeline I would talk to Ali and she would immediately make me feel at ease. She was constantly reminding me that the most important thing on my wedding day was to be present with our friends and family (and as a type A bride this was a much-needed reminder!) Ali also came to take photos at our rehearsal dinner and welcome party which was great because she got to know our families and our family dynamics before our big day which was a huge help! On the wedding day Ali and the second shooter Scottie were rockstars! They went above and beyond at every opportunity from helping the boys tie a bow tie, climbing out on my fire escape to get a crazy photo that I had in mind, moving locations at last minute, dealing with rain, helping bustle my dress, and of course capturing all the beauty of our perfect day. I will not hesitate to work with Ali and her team again! She’s amazing, a true professional, and I hope we have the chance to have her capture our big milestones in the years to come.

Hi, I am Bhanu Vee, The creator behind Eternal Vistas. My passion lies in creating an experience where you feel truly at ease, capturing those genuine, unscripted moments that reflect your connection. I specialize in engagement and wedding photography, focusing on your unique love story with a natural, comfortable approach. Instead of stiff poses, I guide you with gentle cues to let your authentic chemistry shine through. I go out of my way and step into wedding planner shoes if that's what my couple needs. Lets Talk !

Awarded Best of Zola
Even before the wedding day Bhanu was thoughtful and intentional about making sure he would capture our story. Planning a wedding with mostly DIY elements to it, Bhanu was helpful in providing a suggested day-of timeline and also being accomodating on the actual wedding day. For the photography, he gave me and my husband plenty of time to naturally spend time together away from the crowd to take in the moment. He took both natural and guided poses to create a gallery of the most precious photos. As a lover of all art forms, I was especially appreciative of the natural photos of our wedding guests and the gorgeous sunset couple shoot we did as the evening drew to a close. I'm so grateful to Bhanu and feeling lucky to have come across his profile on Zola!
