  • Serves Mechanicsville, MD

Hi, I'm Mary Kate, a wedding photographer based in DC, dedicated to capturing the love and emotion of your special day. With a love for storytelling, I create timeless images that couples will cherish forever. My approach focuses on making you feel comfortable and at ease, ensuring that your wedding day is as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. My goal is to document your wedding in a way that reflects your personality and love story, creating a visual narrative that you'll treasure for years to come.

I can’t say enough good things about Mary Kate! She did both my engagement and wedding day photos. We booked her when she was somewhat new to shooting weddings, but you never would have known because she’s a pro! My pictures are so beautiful they brought me to tears. She’s so easy to work with and makes the whole process a breeze. She comes with her own ideas but also gives you the opportunity to share your own on what kind of pictures you want. I highly recommend!

Kameron was amazing! She captured elegant, beautiful photos of my now wife and I. She worked with me to create an amazing surprise for my partner, and we loved getting to work with her. She is an expert in her craft. All pictures turned out great, and was such a great deal on pricing as well. If you need a photographer for a wedding we would both definitely recommend her!

We had so much fun with Sarah the day we took our engagement photos. Her editing style consists of a various amount of different aesthetics. Some pictures we got back had this really cool blurry effect on them which made them look very whimsical. Well others were a classic black-and-white that we used for our invitations, she’s a hype- woman and definitely can show you how to pose when you feel uncomfortable!

  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Mechanicsville, MD

Living my best life in suburban Maryland. I love art and being creative, so photography just seemed like the next step after being an actor for 15 years. Storytelling is a HUGE part of my life- whether it’s sitting around the dinner table recounting funny memories or looking at old photographs of my own family. Some of the best stories in the world were told without words. I am a D&D, gaming, and SQL nerd, I have a newfound love of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and I am a proud plant mom. Never been married before? I'm here to hold your hand.

Awarded Best of Zola
Laura is an absolutely amazing photographer! She not only delivered us wedding photos that we will cherish forever, but she also made us feel comfortable being in front of the camera! Between the quality of photos, and her amazing energy and professionalism, I would say you’d be a fool to not book her for your big day!

  • Serves Mechanicsville, MD

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

I'm a visual enthusiast with a degree in Arts Management. My style is mostly photojournalistic, embracing natural and romantic elements. In each wedding, my aim is to craft something different and unique, capturing a set of storytelling moments that reflect the essence of the day. What truly drives me is the moment when my clients receive the picture, and tell me how they love them. Knowing that my work will be forever cherished by others adds a meaningful layer.

Villa did our engagement photos for us recently. She was very communicative and responsive to our emails, flexible with location and was willing to reschedule with us because of bad weather. She took BEAUTIFUL photos, delivered them to us very quickly, and her edits were stunning. We were very happy with Villa’s photography, communication, and service and have booked her again for our wedding :)

Nam Tatum is a travel documentary and editorial wedding photographer with a passion for capturing raw, unfiltered emotions. She moved to the U.S. at nine and served in the Marines for seven years before turning her lifelong love for photography into a career. Her approach to photography is far from cookie-cutter. She's been behind the lens since she was ten, seeking out the candid, unscripted moments that reveal the true essence of her subjects. Nam’s style is rooted in authenticity, observing every detail with care and capturing love stories just as they unfold.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to even start? From the planning of the engagement session to the execution of our wedding day photography, Nam was so fun, helpful, encouraging, and professional. She made all of our dreams come true with every picture and has made memories that we will cherish forever. Nam’s laidback fun personality made both my husband and I feel comfortable to be ourselves in front of the camera even though neither one of us are big fans of having our picture taken. She captured us in a way that showed our love in every picture, and it never felt like unnatural or like a photoshoot. She has a way of making people feel seen, and her pictures show that. If you want to always remember the way you *feel*, I would highly recommend Nam. She captures heart on film, and we feel so lucky to have that memorialized forever!

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.

I cannot recommend Jasmine enough. She was super responsive to emails and answered any question leading up to the big day. She took the time to look at images that I had saved that I wanted to incorporate into my own wedding pictures and made sure those moments were captured. I cannot recommend her enough!

Tara Beth Photography is a place of inclusion, empathy, intimacy, and care. From the first email, I take care with my clients. Considering them all unique, and with that, their stories being unique. We talk about how you want to be captured, how your love should be captured. We go over insecurities, love stories, and anything else that may come up during our Zoom calls. I don't want to be just someone you hire. I want to be considered someone you trust, and enjoy to have around!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

We love to travel so much that we keep our prices affordable- giving us the opportunity to cover all over the USA (no travel fees).

We were so impressed by 505 media and their quick responses and quality of photo/video they took! From the initial phases of planning, they were quick to respond and eager to help in the planning process of making sure timelines were manageable. They were able to capture all of the milestones during the day and were even willing to hop on our party bus when we wanted footage of the wedding party driving around! We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures! You don’t hear that often from photography companies! We also watched our wedding video trailer today (which was delivered in less than 2 months from our wedding) and can’t stop watching it! I would recommend 505 media to anyone!!

Paul Cole is a fantastic individual and an even better photographer. I have worked with him both as a primary shooter and a second photographer.

As a photographer his creativity knows no bounds and is always willing to go the extra miles for his couples. This can be seen in the images he produces and the moments he captures.

I have the coolest job in the world: I create emotional time capsules for my couples (and hopefully you too). That way, you get to be fully present on your wedding day and you get to relive that day over and over again with the same intensity, joy and love. My not-so-secret sauce is this: I get to know you. I find out what makes you and your lover tick, and then, I craft a visual story that's reflective of you. My utmost goal is to create joyful imagery for folks who want things documented exactly as they felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are only good things to say about working with Maggie! We booked her for our engagement photos as well as for our wedding day. During the engagement session, she captured some true gems by helping us stay comfortable and true to ourselves. Leading up to our wedding day she was communicative, made sure she understood what our vision/priorities were, and worked well with our planner. On our wedding day, she was so fun to work with, got some beautiful shots of the big moments, and some incredible shots of little ones, too. Even just in our sneak peaks from our wedding, there are so many lovely candids amidst well-placed staged family/couple shots. She has great vision and good ideas and is fun to be around for the process! Regardless, her work speaks for itself. We highly recommend booking Maggie for your engagement and wedding photos!!

Hey there, I'm Josie, and over the past six incredible years, I've had the privilege of documenting countless beautiful moments, from heartfelt weddings to vibrant events. My goal is to create a visual narrative that speaks to the hearts of those who look at my work. I pour my heart and soul into every shot! So, whether it's an intimate elopement or a grand celebration, I'm here to craft images that reflect the true essence of the day. Let's turn your special day into an everlasting masterpiece.

We had Josie capture our destination wedding / elopement with family & friends in Turks & Caicos. Josie was such a wonderful photographer to have beside us on our wedding day. She captured every special moment and even had all of our photos returned back to us in a months time (& a very large quantity too)!! Our photos had us smiling and feeling like we relived the day all over again. Not only is she an amazing photographer but she has such a calming and peaceful personality to be around. She made the entire wedding day light and fun. Taking photos with her felt so natural and easy. If you are looking for a wedding photographer you will make the best decision choosing to have her by your side - especially for destination weddings! Josie is easy to communicate with and responds promptly to all questions which made the planning process smooth. She adapts to the style of photos you would like - whether more portraits or more candid (or a mix of both). Within a week following our wedding she had sent us a link to access a bunch of sneak peak photos. Reliable, personable, professional, kind, talented are just some words to describe Josie. You will be at peace choosing Josie as a photographer. Josie we are SO grateful and blessed to have had you capture our wedding day - we will cherish our photos for many years to come.

If you are looking for your photographer to create beautiful, fine art images that you can look back on years to come and remember how you felt just by looking at a picture, I think we're a perfect fit! I'm here for the relationships and memories that matter and to capture all of your real moments that make your life so amazing! Working with me is knowing your final product speaks to who you are as a couple (as well as gaining a friend for life). I'm not just your wedding photographer..I'm your forever photographer! Ready for your next step? Check out our packages and message me to chat and start planning!

Rachel and her team made our stressful and busy day absolutely wonderful, and now that we have our photos back, there is no denying that they were THE standout of all of those that we booked! The only thing that I would change is that she now has a new addition of a content creator that I have no doubt would be amazing! Our package included film and polaroids and Super 8 for Wedding Day and the night before. From a boudoir session in her amazing studio, a Welcome Dinner on a sailboat, different getting ready locations and all around our venue, each part was unique! Getting ready, first touch, the ceremony, cocktail hour, portraits, reception, and golden hour each have a unique different focus, which I absolutely love. The polaroids were an amazing touch, and the different types of film were such a vibe! I could not ask for more to have captured our memories and make them feel timeless! Of all of the research I had attempted to do to look for a photographer, Rachel was perfect and surpassed expectations! She and her team were flexible, experienced, professional, and have tremendous range. It was so evident that they put in work before the events to know what we were looking for. She even has great recommendations for other vendors and her connections show how well respected she is. Rachel also has a wonderful personality that seems to click with anyone. Rachel was wonderful to work with from the start. She had clear and consistent communication and it’s obvious that she is professional that loves what she does, and through our multiple sessions I had no doubt that she had our best interest in mind and was happy to be behind the camera and supporting us. The team was constantly multi-tasking, aware of what was going on, caused no concerns for us, but also always seemed to be in the right place at the right moment. She and her team were more than familiar with our timeline, what we wanted most out of the day, and needed no reminders, and as things will inevitably happen, they were quick to adjust with a smile. Time goes by so quickly during the events, and she and her team were always prepared and making what we had hoped and planned for happen! After our initial inquiry, Rachel responded quickly and we scheduled a video call, during which she was super engaged and attentive! We could tell that she really listened to what we shared we were looking for and seemed genuinely excited for what we were planning and happy to be a part of it. Her service guide and contract were clear and so were expectations. My husband and I could tell from the start that she not only had a great eye but had the business part of what she does down as well. There wasn’t a single instance during the period of time we worked together that I had doubts or felt on edge about our decision to go with her or that the end product from her team would be lacking. She checked in often and asked for a detailed questionnaire and mood board not only as a part of the inquiry, but also closer to the day which I loved as over months and months of planning things do shift and change. They did a great job of capturing candid moments and getting group shots. They were somehow able to let us enjoy the experience but also get those specific shots we’d requested. They were able to make each part of the day fun, memorable, and unique. We are so happy to say that we have traditional family portraits, candid, and even photos that look editorial!

I'm a laid back, upbeat and silly (some might say incredibly funny, but whatever) person with a penchant for making everyone feel like an old friend. I enjoy being with people so my enthusiasm and joy on your wedding day is genuine! The greatest compliment I receive from couples again and again is that they feel so comfortable with me that taking photos wasn't stressful, in fact, it was fun! Your wedding day should be enjoyable and stress free; My goal is to make that happen as a team with you and all your other vendors, because you deserve nothing less than an awesome wedding day.

If you are looking for a fun and talented photographer, then Rachel is a great choice! Rachel and I met the day of working a wedding together, where she was the photographer and my husband and I were the videographers. We all hit it off right away and captured the entire wedding day as a team, working together seamlessly even though we had just met. Why is this important for couples? Well, when your vendors work well together, you benefit! We were all looking out for each other throughout the day, helping to ensure that the photos and video were the best they could be for our couple. I would imagine that Rachel brings this same element of teamwork to every wedding she shoots. The pictures from the wedding day were awesome and Rachel was a delight to work with - hopefully we will be capturing many more weddings together!

When I shoot your wedding, I want you to remember each moment, vividly. I want you to relive that first moment when your Dad saw you in your dress. I want you to feel the moment when the love of your life laid his eyes on you as you were approaching the aisle. The moment when the groomsman does a split on the dance floor? Yes, that too. ALL OF IT. I am here to serve you, to work along side you and to capture those once in a life time feels.

Lindsay is a true pro! She helped organize an 8 hour styled shoot for my new farm wedding venue and knocked it out of the park. She has a wonderful way of making everyone feel super comfortable, she seamlessly managed two different sets of brides/grooms, additional models, flower girls, hair/makeup scenes, ceremonies and receptions while capturing every aspect of my 40 acre farm in the process. I can't recommend her enough and she will be at the top of my preferred vendors list as one of the best photographers in the region!

As a photographer and a girl who has been a bride herself, I know how important it is to hire someone you trust to document your wedding day. It's more than just an 8 hour day. It's personal.

I dropped out of college to pursue photography back in 2014 and haven't looked back since. I'm an introvert at heart, but I come alive when I'm photographing what I love. I enjoy sipping coffee, exploring new places, board games, and creative projects.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were immediately drawn to Rachel Stenger's photography style and tone. We loved her slightly moody yet crisp vibe. It was evident that she was able to capture the true energy of the people she photographed and that's a special skill. We immediately contacted her to capture our wedding that was scheduled for June 2020. As we got closer to the date and the likelihood of the wedding needing to evolve was growing, Rachel was accessible, supportive, and understanding. She was able to capture our small intimate ceremony on our original date and it was beautiful. We were so happy with her work and her personable energy that we asked her to capture our wedding celebration that happened a year later. Rachel and Zeb, another photographer that she works with, were such a delight while they captured our June 2021 wedding. It was effortless, it felt like they were our friends attending the wedding who happened to be taking photos. They captured all the lovely candid and quirky moments while also capturing the magical staged shots. We highly recommend working with Rachel Stenger, her work is a perfect blend of artistic and realistic. Rachel and Zeb captured moments that will continue to bring a smile to our faces as the years go by. Thank you!

Courtney Hathaway Photography 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Mechanicsville, MD

Born & raised on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, I've been capturing love stories for over 15 years. I've been married to my high school sweetheart for over 10 years, and raising our two sweet boys on this little sandbar we call home is a dream come true. While we are based on the OBX, we happily serve couples on the Outer Banks and Beyond, and enjoy spending the winter months in Costa Rica.

If you need a photographer, Courtney Hathaway is the one to hire! Fun, caring and talented are just a few words to begin with. My husband and I are both camera shy and from day 1 of shooting our engagement, Courtney made us feel comfortable and confident. We had a giant wedding party and a toddler on board, no prob for Courtney! Everyone has expressed to us how fun she made our wedding shoot and how gorgeous all the photos turned out. She certainly knows how to work with big groups, shy couples, and little kids! We've worked with her through pouring rain from a tropical depression (wedding day), whipping winds on a beach (engagement shoot), and a perfect warm sunset surprise engagement by the sound. Every single time, she pulls through and creates timeless beautiful galleries.

We are passionate about photographing kind-hearted people who are unapologetically themselves, and creating a safe and beautiful space in the wedding world for LGBTQ+ folx. Our favorite people to work with believe in giving back to their communities, that black lives always matter, that climate change is you know...real, and choose to embrace their own unique quirks and talents.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

MFields Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Serves Mechanicsville, MD

After my first year of college studying music, I decided to take the business route. I worked for several Fortune 500 businesses and even some start-ups. Photography initially started as a hobby but it slowly became a passion as I developed a growing desire to serve others instead of quarterly sales goals. Studying various genres of photography allowed me to discover wedding & portrait photography - and the rest is history! From Washington DC to your destination event, my specialties include weddings, engagement sessions, and portrait photography.

Prior to finding out about MFields Photography, I was very frustrated with the process of booking a wedding photographer. So much so that by chance I was venting to my dental hygienist about my lackluster experience of finding a wedding photographer to capture one of the most beautiful moments of my life. Luckily she understood my dilemma since she was a newlywed. She told me all about MFields Photography and how great he was to work with. After my appointment she showed me her wedding pictures and I was SOLD. I called Myron the next day and he been making my role as a bride easy ever since. Myron is a valuable resource to have on your wedding team. Not only is he a great photographer, but he is well respected in his field. He also connected us to other reputable wedding professionals that helped us bring the magic for our wedding day. We are beyond grateful.

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

Diana is an amazing photographer! She has shot at our venue Cascata Springs several times and her customers love her. Fantastic photos! Highly recommended.

From the moment we first connected with Luna Lion Photo Co, we knew we had found our dream wedding photographers. Kayti and her team were so incredibly available and quick to respond throughout the entire planning process, putting our minds at ease. On the day of the wedding, their professionalism and talent shone through - the photos they captured were absolute perfection, dreamy, magical, and breathtaking. Kayti and Lana made everyone feel super comfortable and at ease, resulting in natural, pure photos that truly captured the joy and love of our special day. Kayti even stayed longer than contracted to make sure she didn't miss a single shot or opportunity. I can truly call Kayti one of my friends after this wedding experience, and I would recommend Luna Lion Photo Co to any couple looking for jaw-dropping wedding photography.
