I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

I can't imagine not having Jason as he's an incredibly hardworking photographer, a true gem. From the moment we connected, it was clear that he is exceptional at what he does, and his passion for his craft shines through in every interaction. Let's talk about communication. Among all my vendors, Jason stood out as the most reliable and supportive.

His responsiveness and genuine care made me feel deeply valued and significantly reduced my stress. Jason's dedication and attentiveness are just a few reasons why I cannot recommend him enough.

Seeing him dash around to get so many incredible shots in such a short time was truly remarkable! Throughout the entire process, Jason's professionalism, enthusiasm, and love for his craft shine through.

Columbia, MD
  • Photojournalistic style

Hi. I’m Josh. Our work is based in Washington, DC and we’re happy to travel. The best photographs are simple, unobtrusive, and spontaneous. We’ve always sought to remember things exactly how they happened - how we felt. This is how authentic photography captivates us. The goal is to photograph your day as it unfolds naturally. Take a few moments to go through some words from past clients describing their experience with us. You’ll also find us on Google.

Awarded Best of Zola
Josh is an incredible artist and a wonderful person. He did a perfect job for us at our wedding in April and delivered photos we’ll always treasure! Before the event, we had a great conversation discussing our vision and vibe, and he asked thoughtful questions to help us figure out details. He is so warm and inviting, we felt relaxed with him right away. On the day, he was an absolute delight. He gave helpful direction that never felt awkward (I hate getting my photo taken), and was everywhere throughout the venue documenting genuine moments with our loved ones. So many of our guests complimented Josh specifically when telling us about their experience at the wedding! We didn’t want to spend a ton of time taking photos on the day; we wanted to enjoy our party. Josh made this happen perfectly. We still got plenty of fabulous and complete family photos, but didn’t miss a minute of cocktail hour. And the final product he delivered is everything we wanted and more: beautiful real moments, classic but natural posed photos, and little touches of artistry that make the photos feel alive. I enthusiastically recommend Josh to all in need of a top notch photographer!

Lauren is truly an incredible artist. She knows how to pose her clients and never made it feel awkward or forced. It’s like there wasn’t even a camera there, just a couple of friends hanging out! :) Lauren joined us for our elopement and then a couple days later for a reception with around 40 people. She was very thorough in helping us decide where we wanted the elopement to happen, and was very patient when I changed my mind 10 times. She brought me a bouquet that matched my dress and champagne bottles for us to pop. She is incredibly thoughtful and you can really see how passionate she is about what she does. She was so quick to edit and send us the photos, I seriously cannot express how much of a joy it was working with her. I never once worried about capturing these special days with Lauren there, and now we have such beautiful photos to cherish forever.

Hi, I'm Candace and I have a thing for weddings! I didn't start as a wedding photographer, I actually started as a BIRTH photographer surprisingly! I was addicted to capturing real and raw moments for families to have and relive over and over. I actually was nervous for weddings, which is why I didn't start doing them. One thing led to another and as people started asking me if I WOULD shoot their wedding, I decided to give it a try. Fast-forward to dozens and dozens of weddings later and I am obsessed!! I am a full fledged wedding photographer and I LOVE capturing every single moment of your day. The addiction is real!!

Sound Originals did a fantastic job photographing our wedding! Ari and Ali were very professional and they understood how to set up good shots. I'm amazed by how good the lighting was in most of the photos, even in some rooms at the church that weren't as well lit. There are a few photos I wish had been full body rather than cut off at the ankles, oh well. At the end of the night when our coverage had ended before the wedding did, they waited till the end of a song before saying goodbye instead of interrupting, which we greatly appreciated.

I'm a wedding and dog photographer based in the Northern Virginia/DC area with a focus on capturing fun, candid, colorful photos of the people and pups you love! I'm always willing to travel, especially back to my home state of New York.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Megan at our small wedding was great. It was the two of us, our dog, and two guests at a venue with lots of beautiful spaces. She took the time to explore the venue before our wedding to find the best photo spots, and she had so many creative shots and poses for us. We don't like to take a lot of pictures normally, and she helped us all (dog included!) feel comfortable in front of the camera. She shared a sneak peek of the photos within a couple days and all the photos in less than a month. The photos themselves are beautiful and we have so many favorites! I highly recommend working with Megan. She is very professional and friendly, and helped keep the wedding planning and wedding day stress free.

I’ve been a professional photographer for about 4 years now. I’ve always had a passion for photography. Photography is my passion and it’s my full-time job.

Kevyn is THE BEST!! The first time we met her to do our engagement pictures, she made us feel so comfortable to be ourselves. We are both far from models and had never had professional pictures done together, but she made the process so easy and fun. During wedding planning, she felt like so much more than just a photographer, she reached out multiple times to help with timeline and check in to see how I was doing with planning everything. You can tell that she loves what she does, and it is truly a passion of hers. Our wedding day was no different than our engagement photo sessions, she was incredible. The turn around time felt so fast for all our pictures, we had over 40 sneak peak pictures back less than 24 hours after the wedding and our whole album less than a month after the wedding. We cried looking through our pictures because they took us right back to the feelings of the best day of our lives. We will cherish these pictures for the rest of our lives and are so thankful to Kevyn for capturing the joy of that day for us to look back on forever.

He took the photos so quickly and got so many photos of us! Many of his ideas took us out of our comfort zone, but ended up being some incredible shots, and he made it extremely fun to do them.

Hey there!! My name is Marilyn and I'm so glad you're here ♡ I am a couples + wedding photographer based in New York City, and happy to travel to wherever your day is at! I've had pink hair for the last 6 years so at this point it has become a personality trait and I'm 100% okay with it. I love the outdoors, pat every dog I can, and thrive on ben and jerry's. My ideal place to be would likely be frolicking in wildflowers in a dress that's way too long, but the longer the better. The patio of my NYC apartment with a good book is a close second favorite though, for sure.

Photography has always been a lifelong passion of mine, I picked up my first camera as a gift from my dad when I was 14 years old. Never in a million years would I have thought that my lifelong hobby could eventually become my career. I focused on my future, working my way through college and grad school to achieve my license to practice, but a part of me realized that I wanted to pursue a career that allowed me to go on adventures and meet a lot of new people. So in 2019, I took that risk, changed my hours from full time to part time and put more focus on my photography. I booked my first gig later that year and have never looked back.

10/10 would recommend randall!! We booked him for our engagement shoot and wedding and we are beyond appreciative and impressed. RDL is the only photographer my husband and I could agree on. We liked his photography style, the quality of the work, the price, and his personality. He even guided us with the timeline to make the most of the time and photography. For both the engagement shoot and wedding day, he guided us and made us feel comfortable. We’re def not models but he made us look great! We were able to get some posed shots and some Candids. He was PATIENT with us and didn’t make us feel awkward at all. The day of the wedding, I got so many compliments from our families with how they appreciated his presence. He kindly directed people and was patient with us and our guests. Def professional guy and just honestly a good personality. He’s also priced well. Def recommend booking a consult and booking him for your events!! You won’t regret it

Weddings Unlimited

Houston, TX
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,950

We’re passionate about being picky! It’s only the most important day of your life. When all is over and you’ve gone home, you’ll forget the details and you’ll have the memories to keep with you forever. We create those moments and the capture them for you to share with generations to come. Our Wedding Photographers and Videographers only do Weddings, we use a timeline to ensure we never miss a shot and we guarantee you’ll like the end result or we will keep editing till you do.

When we first came across Weddings-Unlimited the deal seemed too good to be true.. They post their prices, the packages, all the extras right there before you ever even talk to them. So when I first contacted them the owner, Alex, was ready to answer all my questions, even anticipating that I would question the value. Not only was it a pleasant conversation, when I mentioned we were two men, always prepared for the “We can’t serve you” bit, Alex got even more excited and talked about other LGBT weddings they’ve served. We booked our DJ, Video, Photo and Photo Booth package then and there. In the year between that day and the wedding they stayed in regular contact with us. They sent us timelines to work on and we had conference calls to answer questions and fine tune everything. Our original point of contact was Leah, and she was so nice and ready for our questions and gave us guidance we really valued. When Leah had to take some leave a few weeks before the wedding Nancy took over as our contact. I was a little put off right at first(not the someone needed leave but worried the change might make things difficult) but after my first call with Nancy I was put completely at ease. We wound up talking several times before the wedding, and with my specific and in some cases unusual needs she never blinked and made sure I had contact with everyone I would need to. The week before the wedding the DJ, lead photographer, 2nd photographer, and videographer all reached out to us to introduce themselves, providing numbers to be able to text if I had any questions. And they all seemed genuinely happy to be doing the work A couple days before the wedding Nancy had to call and let me know that the photobooth we had chosen was having some technical difficulties, but before she called she already had a replacement ready so there wasn’t even a second where I had any worry that everything would be well taken care of. On the day of the wedding itself, Allen, the videographer arrived first. He introduced himself, we talked about some ideas, and then off he went getting all the footage of everything and then checking in and making other suggestions. He didn’t miss a thing and couldn’t have been nicer. Then Javier and Ross, the photographers arrived. Now look, I know it’s their jobs to appear excited to be there. But by the end of the night I truly believe they actually genuinely love weddings and working at them. Javier even hit the dancefloor with us at one point! It was AMAZING! Our DJ was Bryant, an absolute blast! He hit the lights, the music, the mist bubbles, everything at just the right time. High energy, made all the announcements and had people excited to be doing whatever we may have been doing. Whether the toasts, the mom and son dances, eating lol, it didn’t matter he got people ready to roll. We also had a couple of particular items, like I had a secret song and dance during the ceremony that my now husband was to be surprised with. So Bryant and I went over the cue and the music privately and then during the ceremony he stayed right by us, at one point almost crawling behind the groomspeople in order to hand over a prop! After the wedding was over Nancy called a couple days later just to make sure everything had gone perfectly, and I’m glad to report it had. The only disappointing thing about all of it is the fact that I won’t be getting married every year and get to work with them all again and again

Christy and Alex are amazing ! They made us feel comfortable and the photos are a work of art. They capture every nose crinkle, every smile and tear. My family adored them and talked to them during the wedding. They explain what to do and just be yourself! The details of the wedding were captured so beautiful. Highly recommend and they are wonderful people. Feels like a friend not a vendor! Couldn’t thank them enough for making it to Iowa and capturing our big day. These photos are forever and generation after generation. Love Jennifer and Justin

We had the pleasure of working with Ryan and Jenn for our Lovebird session and our wedding, and I highly, highly recommend Willow! Our Lovebird session was the first photo shoot my husband and I had ever done so we were definitely a little nervous about it, but Ryan and Jenn made us feel so comfortable that it didn’t take long for those nerves to go away. I knew long before receiving out photos from that shoot that we made the right choice with our photographers, but our photos just confirmed it and made me SO excited to have them for our wedding. From our initial phone call before booking to our last call to finalize details before the wedding, they were so communicative and helpful. We just received our sneak peeks from our wedding and I am in love; our pictures are perfect and it brought back the pure happiness that I felt that day. Ryan and Jenn are truly the nicest people and SO TALENTED in what they do. I look forward to being able to work with Willow again in the future.

Gabriella was the best photographer I worked with! She is so bright and sunshiny she just makes you want to smile in every photo and she will capture so many pure emotions. I hired her for my wedding photos and I am beyond thrilled with the experience and the results. She has vision and creates beautiful photos! My husband is shy and said that at times he forgot he was taking photos, Gabriella made us feel so comfortable and confident and helped us pose when we needed more instruction. Gabriella is also a wonderful communicator, I am from out of town and Gabriella made communication clear and effective. She also goes above and beyond when sending recommendations for vendors and checking in as frequently as a couple needs. 11/10 highly recommend!

Our deposit is 20% down to book and the remaining balance can be broken down into 3-4 increments.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Reflections Media Pennsylvania as our wedding photographer and were very happy with their services. They were great at communication - thoroughly documenting details over email and phone calls leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, they jumped right in to capture candid moments as they happened. For example, they photographed all of our guests arriving at the cocktail hour with us. The photos turned out beautifully, really capturing the spirit of our wedding at a fair price. My only minor critique would be that it was hard to pose for some of the more formal shots because the photographer didn't do a countdown before snapping the pic. And unfortunately due to the event timing, we were not able to take as much photos with the family/bridal party as we had wanted in our consultation. I would recommend couples to keep in mind specific shots during the wedding; the wedding day was extremely hectic for us but it would have been nice to have the photographer (us as well) remember our consultation on what shots we were important for us for them to photograph. But overall, I'd recommend Reflections Media to other couples looking to preserve memories of their special day.

I have been a photographer for the last 20 years, shooting weddings, elopements and portraits. I'm proud to have shot more than 150 same-sex weddings, which is probably more than, well, just about anyone. That said, I’ve worked with as many straight couples as LGBTQ ones. I don't discriminate. There are many other photographers whose work inspire me, but my primary inspiration comes from painters. Rembrandt, Vermeer, Sargent, to name a few.

Steven photographed our wedding and prepared photos and an album for us. His work throughout was excellent, from input on a schedule for photos during the event, to posing the family and guests, suggesting positive changes to some steps of the ceremony, capturing great moments, keeping the day on track, and working with us on the album. His layout and editing for the album were terrific, very professional, attentive to themes and telling the story through images, and with a great eye for combinations. We recommend Steven without hesitation for your special days!

We absolutely loved working with Jess! We had a wild wedding situation and Jess jumped in with both feet! She helped us so much with not just photography, but also general wedding questions, and timeline things. My husband is biracial, and it was important to us to find a photographer who had experience photographing people of color. Jess had the experience, understood why it was important, and delivered amazing photos of our diverse family!  Most importantly, we felt so supported by Jess before, during, and after our wedding. She was right there with us every step of the way! Her associate Marina was also amazing. We are so grateful to have worked with Jess, and we love our wedding photos!! Jess is the best!

So here's the tea... I'm a wise-cracking, extroverted Capricorn who excels at corralling your rowdy family for photos and charming Aunt Carol, the self-deemed professional iPad photographer. Ever since I was little, huddled on the couch with my five siblings rewatching The Lion King, I knew that I wanted to be a storyteller. Growing up in a creative household, I studied a wide range of arts before settling on filmmaking. I envisioned in my head that I would be the next Spielberg, but after shooting my first wedding in 2013 all my plans changed.

Maya Papaya Pictures was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding & engagement session. Her communication was prompt, and they truly listened to our wants and needs, responding quickly to any questions or concerns. The quality of their work exceeded our expectations - it was of the highest caliber. On the day of our wedding, Maya & Courtney helped calm the nerves of the chaotic day and worked seamlessly with our two huge and intrusive families to capture beautiful photos. We could not be happier with the memories they helped create for us. We can not wait to use Maya for any photo necessities we might need!

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
