CJ with Entertainment Excellence was so amazing from start to finish. He was communicative, friendly, professional, and always willing to answer any questions we had. He was able to take the example playlist I made and elevate it so that we had the most magical experience. Guests were raving about the music and the good vibes all night long.

We were certain we wanted to work with Alex / Toussaint Productions halfway through our introduction call. We immediately knew that Alex would not only show up for us on our wedding day, but he would really get the party started. I think each of us (me, my husband, and Alex) were not sure how or what to expect from our diverse wedding guest list. Well, Alex worked his magic and had our dance floor PACKED throughout the entire reception! I still am blown away by just how epic and fun our ceremony was. I knew my people would show up, but Alex truly kept everyone going until it was time to bring the party elsewhere. Every single one of our guests raved about Alex to us after the wedding, and we still have people mentioning to us about how awesome our dj was. Aside from what he brought to the table on our wedding day, Alex and his team are professional, kind, and just simply passionate about their work. I would book with Toussaint Productions again and again, and cannot recommend them enough!

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.

We honestly feel so lucky to have booked Laura; she was just the perfect fit for our wedding. She has a true gift for bringing the candid smiles out of people, and made the experience easy, fun, and memorable. There's no, "I feel awkward in front of a camera" with Laura--she makes everyone feel so comfortable and confident. If you want to feel like a partner in your own wedding's photo journey, then Laura is the perfect choice. We were beyond pleased with how all of our photos came out, and hope to work with her again someday for other milestones!

Maddy & Cass are the best and everyone needs to hire them for their wedding!! From the start, they were professional, easy to communicate with, quickly responsive to emails, and eager to get started planning our wedding!! We met a few months prior to the wedding at the venue to see the space and talk all things details. Leading up to the wedding, they were on the ball with everything and double checking in on things that I wasn't thinking of or had over looked, etc. They communicated with all the vendors on our behalf and made sure everyone was on the same page with details, timing, etc. They are both so sweet and genuinely nice people and it was awesome to have them there for the rehearsal and the wedding day!!

Let's be real. Weddings are wonderful and powerful and amazing days, but they're also big balls of stress. The best advice I ever received was from a friend who said, "find the photographer who can capture the amazing intimate moments, but also the person who you'd want to be a fly on the wall for them." After all, you spend about as much time with your wedding photographer as you do with your new spouse. Bethany was perfect for us. She captured engagement photos so stunning, so authentic, that I wish we could get a new set every year for our family. She captured perfect (occasionally hilarious) moments at the wedding that I would have completely missed otherwise - the way a friend helped you relax by pressing down on your shoulders as you got ready, the way your cousins looked at each other during a wedding toast, the way the cabin looked, it was perfect. And she created an amazing, dramatic photo that took full advantage of the rainy weekend. She's also just fun to be with; despite the stress around us, she was ready with a little joke that helped put us at ease. I think she's one of the only photographers who really got "me" in photos - not the person I try to be, or the awkward person who is trying to smile in the photos, but the person I am. I couldn't recommend her more.

They have excellent responsiveness, attention to detail and the food is amazing. Everything we wanted on our wedding day was accomplished. The only slight frustration I experienced was not having contact with our specific day of coordinator until the week of the wedding. But that didn’t even end up being an issue because, as I mentioned, everything was perfect. They’re so flexible and easy to work with. Though I wasn’t communicating with the same person every time I had questions, their internal communication was so strong and efficient that it seemed like I was talking the the same person.

Hello! My name is Megan, I am a self-taught floral designer and proud of it! While I was an event intern at a large non-profit, I did all fifty centerpieces for our first gala. My bosses took a chance on me and I'd like to say it paid off! I was quickly hired after my internship ended and worked my way up to Director of Events. Throughout my four years there I planned all of our large-scale events, which included designing all floral elements for each event. It was at that job I truly learned just how obsessed I am with planning and executing events, as well as floral design.

In 2003 I began my career in photography with the Maryland Film Office in Baltimore and photographed my first wedding in 2004 with my sister-in-law. I was in love! In 2007 I decided to go full time with wedding photography. I moved out west to apprentice with veteran wedding photographers in Las Vegas and Los Angeles to master studio lighting and posing techniques. I began working full time as a wedding photographer in Annapolis under my own company in 2009. Since then, I have met hundreds of amazing couples. When I'm not photographing a wedding, you can most likely find me on a mountain or the Chesapeake Bay with my family...camera in hand.

Kate is a super talented and professional photographer and we’re so happy we chose her for our wedding. From day one Kate was responsive, professional and super easy to work with. We had our wedding in Greece, and despite the language barrier, Kate connected with our wedding planner to ensure that everything went seamlessly. She asked questions and was very engaged making sure she knew every detail of the photo timeline. She even typed out an email in Greek to our wedding planner somehow!! We were very hands off and gave her complete creative control, and she was amazing! On the day of our wedding Kate showed up and went above and beyond, capturing all of the important moments, with little to no direction from us on our big day. We received the sneak peak shots very quickly after the wedding and we absolutely loved them! We are so happy with our decision to work with Kate and we definitely recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing, professional photographer!
