I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

Awarded Best of Zola
Justin is beyond amazing. He is a calming, fun, and professional presence all in one. Even outside of photography, he helps out wherever is needed. He literally fanned me while I slogged up stairs in my wedding heels and dress in 90 degree heat and humidity to get to our ceremony so that I didn't melt. He is also so on top of all of the details and the timeline. He makes everyone feel comfortable. To top it all off, he has an amazing eye for capturing beautiful moments and places. My pictures have come out more amazing than I could have ever imagined. I cannot recommend him as a photographer and human being enough.

I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based right in Baltimore, MD. Originally from Greece. There is nothing that makes me happier than capturing laughter, love, and connections. I believe that everything happens for a reason

Awarded Best of Zola
After meeting dozens of photographers, scrolling hundreds of portfolios, and feeling like all wedding photographers were the same, I saw Margarita at a wedding expo booth. Her display photos were nothing I had ever seen from a wedding photographer before...an artistic voice. Scroll her work and you'll be relieved to find someone who captures raw, real emotion and doesn't rely on 50 filters and over saturation in her work. Her prices were incredibly reasonable so we booked her immediately. After talking with us, she suggested we do our engagement shoot at a brewery/arcade which we had never been to and now we go every week! Props to her Baltimore city knowledge and ability to read us to find one of our favorite places that has significant meaning More importantly, when we got our photos back, we were floored. Neither my partner nor I really like our photos taken but we loved the photos and how we looked. She brought out the models in us with such ease because the whole time you work with her it feels like your with a friend who just happens to have a camera. It all felt natural and genuine and you can see it in the photos. The wedding was the same thing - just a laidback feeling between my spouse, Margarita, and me just hanging out. Yes, she can shoot a camera. Yes, she can edit photos. Yes, she can properly read light and stage photos. All necessary skills of a photographer but her real skill is making connections with her clients and capturing genuine emotions and moments. She'll set your mind at ease so you can be present with your partner to enjoy your day then she'll deliver you hundreds of breathtaking photos. Book her, you won't regret it.

Layla was my absolute favorite vendor to work with for our wedding. She is a ray of sunshine with an upbeat, welcoming, and fun personality. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, pick her! My husband and I got married in August at Woodberry Kitchen. We hired Layla for our engagement photos, rehearsal dinner and wedding day. For our engagement photos, I was nervous to be in front of the camera, but she made us feel comfortable, made us laugh and got beautiful shots! It was awesome to have her for the rehearsal dinner, she took great photos of us and our guests. On our wedding day she was the best! She got a ton of wonderful shots and some unique ones of us and our families as well. 10/10 I would recommend her to EVERYONE!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the pleasure of working with Nicole for our wedding in January 2024, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From our initial consultation, it was clear that she was not only professional but also genuinely passionate about capturing our special day. Throughout the entire process, Nicole was incredibly organized and attentive. She took the time to understand our vision and offered valuable suggestions that enhanced our overall experience. Nicole truly made us so comfortable in a position we felt so vulnerable in. On the wedding day, she arrived promptly and worked seamlessly with our other vendors. The photos are absolutely stunning! Nicole has a remarkable eye for detail and captured every moment beautifully. From candid shots to posed portraits, each image reflects the joy and emotion of the day. She took our vision of a cozy winter wedding and turned the photos into our dream. Nicole was also very innovative in coming up with a beautiful rain plan as we were expecting snow rather than rain on our special day. The editing was top-notch, and we received our photos in a very timely manner. Considering the exceptional quality of the work and the level of service provided, Nicole offers great value for money. We felt that every penny spent was worth it for the memories we now have to cherish forever. She truly had a package for every budget! Working with Nicole was a highlight of our wedding planning. Her expertise and friendly demeanor made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. Nicole was ultimately the ring leader of the day who kept the ball rolling. We highly recommend her to any couple looking for beautiful, high-quality wedding photography to match all personalities. Thank you, Nicole, for capturing our special day in such a magical way!

Hi, I'm Lee. Dreamer, Romantic, Storyteller... Growing up I didn't get it, I can tell you there is more than one photo of me with a bored and anxious look on my face. I can still hear my dad, who has now passed, say "if you don't sit still we will be here all day". As an adult, I now get it. Not being able to talk with my dad everyday or ask for advice, I'm so thankful to have albums full of family photos to hold in my hands. Fast forward to today as a DC wedding photographer, I want this for you. Nothing gives me more pleasure than capturing wedding photos that you and your family will cherish for a lifetime.

We would absolutely recommend Weddings By Lee Photography to any couple looking for a talented and personable wedding photographer.

In addition to photog, my other loves include dancing, 70s + 80s rock, cooking, anything involving my family and friends, my cat Goose, and watching reality dating shows.

Working with Tia feels like you're working with your best friend. She has such a calming presence and really embraces the experience you are looking for on your big day. Ben and I knew we wanted to be very present at our wedding and wanted to limit how much time we spent away from our friends and family. We were drawn to Tia's documentary photography and post editing style and after having a phone call with her we knew she was the perfect match! She is a photographer who will go above and beyond every step of the way. She was super responsive leading up to the wedding and took on coordinating with our planners and videographer. She answered every text and email inquiry we had quickly and I cannot express how thrilled we are with the turn out! I was shocked looking through the images at how well they capture exactly how I remember each moment, colors, hues, and all! She really captured the essence of our theme and venue and I'm so beyond grateful our path led us to her. We will cherish these photos forever and look forward to working with her again in future life milestones.

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

If you're looking for a wedding photographer that will go above and beyond, Sam is your man. He was so much more than a photographer. We cared most about the small, beautiful, candid moments people share with one another on a wedding day and Sam captured all of it. He has a magical way of capturing emotions and making everything seem like it is in motion. We had a small family wedding and Sam immersed himself into the day and our families. It was so wonderful. He did the work of three photographers and I'm still not sure how he accomplished it all! More than that, he was there for every little thing we needed. Extra bluetooth speaker? Sam was on it. Hep with boutonnieres? Sam was on it. The photos made us cry and captured the day perfectly. I am so grateful we were one of the few wedding Sam photographed in 2025. If he's available, book him right away!

During the winter, I teach a video class at the Sheffield Institute of the Recording Arts and I love having a positive impact on my students.

I met Brea when she photographed my best friend’s wedding, and I knew right away that she was the photographer I wanted for my own. Brea is warm, personable, and took the time to truly get to know us as a couple so that our photos reflected what mattered most to us. She was incredibly responsive to every request, creative and adaptive in bringing our vision to life, and somehow managed to capture every big moment and quiet detail with artistry and authenticity. We were stunned when she sent us photos that very night! Her speed is matched only by the breathtaking quality of her work. Choosing Brea and her team was one of the best decisions we made. She didn’t just document our day, she told our story.

I'm Barbara, an adventurer and passionate about life and the world we live in. I’ve lived in 4 different countries so far and I’m currently living in Maryland with Darrion, the love of my life. We met in 2008 in Prague. It was definitely one of those love-at-first-sight cliché stories. I’m such a romantic! I believe in fairy tales, love candle-lit dinners and dancing to Van Morrison under a starry sky.

We cannot say enough good things about Barbara and her photographs. From day one of my wedding planning process, Barbara was my top choice for a photographer. Her candid photos and gorgeous editing style drew me in immediately. Barbara took our engagement photos and photos of our wedding day. We had a micro wedding of only 21 people, so it had a very cozy feel which Barbara captured perfectly. Barbara fit right in with our family and friends. Everyone loved her. She captured the most intimate and lovely photos of our wedding day - we are so thrilled with the results. BOOK BARBARA!!

After our wedding, we asked her to do our maternity photoshoot and our baby girl’s first birthday photos.

I’ll preface by saying i had been married previously and photographer for my first wedding was “okay.” Krystina is the complete opposite! We hired her for both our engagement and wedding day photos. Krystina is absolutely incredible when it comes to photography and design choices. She brings such unique creativity to her work, which was fantastic for a couple who struggles in that department. She is very responsive, professional, and just so sweet and kind. Both of our families continue to rave about how she handled everything, kept us in schedule and made it look easy. She also managed to help keep my emotions and stress level at bay despite my anxiety on my wedding day. Not only are our photos absolutely stunning but her creative works like photo albums, prints and other little gift ideas are just simply incredible.

From the introductory phone call to the delivery of our prints, a canvas, and a beautifully personalized thumb drive with all of our wedding photos, Kimberly absolutely exceeded all of our expectations. Our engagement shoot (which we were both incredibly nervous for) was a blast. Kimberly put us right at ease and her eye for finding a variety of backdrops was impressive! She was an integral part of the planning process, helping organize a timeline as well as a list of group shots. Kimberly was quick to respond to communications and helped talk us through planning for rain when our weather forecast was less than optimal. If you are considering including your dog in your day - Kimberly is the photographer for you.

The shots are breathtaking, and we're still in awe of them years later. Emma's attention to detail and genuine pride in her work was felt throughout the entire day and in every photo she so thoughtfully delivered (which was so much sooner than we were expecting). She went the extra mile and did some really creative edits that we requested long after our big day, which was so appreciated.

I am a Baltimore based wedding and engagement photographer, known for my vibrant wedding photos with an authentic, candid style. I work with couples who are laid back like me, and whose idea of a perfect wedding day is enjoying time with family and friends, not spending half the day posing for stiff, awkward photos.

As a videographer, I have worked with Morgan many times, and each time I find out she is the photographer for the day, I breathe a sigh of relief. Her work is excellent, and she does such a great job directing her couples to give them the best photographs. She communicates well and takes the time to make sure couples get everything they need. She is not only professional when it comes to her clients; she works seamlessly alongside all the vendors at the event. You will not go wrong with hiring her. She's amazing!

I have a newfound love for gardening & in addition to all the vegetables, I've been growing Ranunculus, Anemones, and Garden Roses to pretty up my patio! I spend most of my free time volunteering as a photographer/dog walker at my local animal shelter - BARCS, and the hubs is never surprised when I come home with a new foster dog!

Teri is a true professional! We absolutely love working with her. She makes you feel so comfortable and relaxed while capturing beautiful images!!

I want to cover your day in a way that highlights the joy and sincerity that surrounds you and the people you love. Some emotions are unbridled, but most are nuanced and fleeting. When you look back at your set of images, I want you to be transported back to that day and to have those feelings rekindled. My role is to be an observer and a listener. The less time I spend interrupting, the more time I can spend watching, waiting, and capturing the moments that should be remembered. If I’m there to record it, it’ll be without printed pages from other photographers you’d like to see imitated. I'll be there as me – and I’ll be capturing you.

My search for a wedding photographer was pretty much a full time job. In fact, it was harder finding a wedding photographer than it was finding a man I wanted to marry. After spending hours and hours searching for the perfect wedding photographer, a google search found me Katie and I knew I had to work with her. From day 1 she was so easy to work with and was willing to work with me on my budget. I was extremely particular when it came to my photos and from the engagement photos to the wedding photos, she really hit it out of the park without me having to describe every little thing. The photos invoked the emotion/feeling I wanted from them and I particularly was wowed by her black and white photos. She clearly knows what she's doing and was able to work efficiently and work around a ton of sudden changes. I was a bundle of nerves on my wedding day and really valued her calm, peaceful demeanor. She truly has an extraordinary style and eye for photography and she's my #1 recommendation for brides looking for timeless wedding photos that transcend what's trending today. We've since worked with her for family photos and she wowed us once again. Honestly I'd have her photograph every momentous occasion of my life if I could. If you go through her portfolio you'll see all different styles of weddings but each photo is stunning. God forbid if I ever have another wedding, partnering with Katie is a no-brainer.
