My passion for photography grew when my daughter, Lotus, was born in 2004 and I began documenting her childhood with an eye toward catching each irreplaceable moment. Soon, friends and then friends of friends asked me to photograph their children and families. Before long, I was documenting the lives and milestones of people all over the DMV area. I realized how happy I was connecting with people and capturing special moments, and so I launched Lotus Photography in 2012 - named for my first muse. I fell in love with capturing weddings in 2017 and I have been hooked ever since!

“Lotus Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, Georgette showed a true empathy for our vision and provided thoughtful feedback to help us feel confident in our decisions. She was incredibly approachable and adaptable, always available for quick chats, texts, and emails. On our wedding day, Georgette was with us from start to finish, ensuring she captured every guest and all of our most intimate moments as a couple. The final photos are absolutely stunning - professional, artistic, timeless, and so authentically us. It's like reliving our special day every time we look through them, and we can't wait to have our favorites printed to hang up all over the house!

I specialize in capturing the real, candid moments during your wedding day. My approach is all about blending seamlessly into your event. Clients often describe me as calm, cool, and personable. While I take a variety of photos, I stay in the background, moving fluidly throughout the day. My goal is to preserve those fleeting moments, often capturing details you might not have noticed in the excitement of the day. My role also is to make your day stress-free. Whether it's helping direct family for portraits or keeping things running smoothly, I'll be by your side to ensure you feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process.

“We cannot say enough good things about Konrad and his incredible work on both our engagement shoot and our wedding day! From the very first consultation, it was clear that he was not only professional but also genuinely passionate about his craft. He took the time to understand our vision for photography and delivered beyond our expectations—without breaking the bank! After our engagement shoot he surprised us with a behind the scenes video of our day and we were sold on adding the video option to our wedding day. On the day of the wedding, he was calm, organized, and made us feel so comfortable. His attention to detail was amazing, capturing all of the candid moments, the beautiful portraits, and even the small, intimate touches we didn’t notice ourselves. He managed to blend seamlessly into the background while still getting the most stunning shots. What really stood out to us was his ability to balance both photography and videography without sacrificing quality in either area. The photos are breathtaking, and the 4 minute wedding video perfectly tells the story of our day, with all the right moments captured in the most beautiful way. We were also impressed with how quickly he turned around our photos and video—it didn’t take long to relive those precious memories! All of this came at a price that was surprisingly reasonable, especially when you consider the high level of service and talent he brings to the table. We truly feel like we got the best of both worlds: top-tier photography and videography at a price that fit our budget. If you’re looking for a photographer who will not only meet your expectations but exceed them, we highly recommend Konrad. Thank you for making our special day unforgettable!”

Hi! I'm Nina and I run Ivy & Quartz photography! I shot my first wedding in 2013, but my journey with photography began long before that. When I was about 10 years old, my dad gave me a camera and I quickly became obsessed. My intrigue continued to grow over the years and I went on to earn my BA in Studio Art , Photography, from the University of Virginia. After graduating I worked as a portrait photographer and decided to pursue and earn my MFA in Imaging Arts from the Rochester Institute of Technology.

“After friends shared a photo of my then fiance and me at their own wedding, we hired the photographer who took it. This was Nina! That one photo inspired us to review the gallery of their entire wedding and then her portfolio and we were blown away. 7 months later our own wedding day arrived. My husband and I are the type of people who are wildly present and constantly forget to take photographs of our life together. We knew we wanted to capture this day without the photography becoming a chore or hindering our ability to do what we do best and enjoy our time. Nina was able to provide just that and was incredible (as was the second photographer she worked with for our big day). Nina seamlessly handled all the chaotic moments and pre-ceremony stress of the very emotional bride (me) in stride! With very little direction she navigated all aspects of a wedding day with absolute poise and grace. I cannot thank her enough for taking on such leadership and just GETTING IT DONE! Nina captured all the big and tiny pieces that go into a wedding and I felt her photo choices, angles, and poses perfectly captured the essence of me and my husband's personalities. At every avenue Nina was a professional, personable, and I never expected I could be so satisfied with a collection of photographs. THANK YOU SO MUCH NINA.”

“From the moment we met Cesario, we knew he would be our photographer. He immediately felt like a friend vs. another vendor. He instilled so much confidence in us leading up to our wedding day. He was very clear and efficient with communication. He let us ask for what we wanted while also guiding us toward other fun creative ideas. On the day of our wedding, he and Paul were amazing to work with. Great vibes, controlled time well and captured the true essence of our wedding. Finally, the pictures were STUNNING. My wife and I haven't stopped looking at them. I would 100% recommend Cesario to anyone looking to capture their most treasured memories and hope that we get to work with him again in the future.

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

“From the very beginning of planning my surprise proposal to my girlfriend, working with Grace was an absolute pleasure. She was not only receptive to my ideas but also shared her own equally creative suggestions. Grace's professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding. What truly made the experience special was how she made the entire photoshoot feel like a fun activity for us as a couple. Her creativity shone through as she guided us through various poses that felt incredibly natural. Grace's ability to put us at ease made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. One more remarkable detail was her dedication to research, ensuring we had perfect sunrise photos. It was evident that she went the extra mile to time everything perfectly. What stood out the most, though, was her unique talent for capturing the emotion and joy of the moment. I can't thank her enough for creating such a magical and unforgettable memory for us!”

“We worked with Anji and Pete for both our wedding and engagement photography and I absolutely could not be happier. As someone who gets very nervous in front of a camera, I was worried about photography. They both took the time to get to know us and to put us at ease, especially in posed situations. We wanted the photographs to feel like us: joyful, silly, colorful, and exuberant...not like a generic wedding magazine. They chose a fabulous location for the engagement shoot (gardens outside the Smithsonian castle). When I look back at our wedding pictures I see a moment-by-moment representation of an amazing day that flew by for me as the bride. Of course they captured us as bride and groom, but they also made intimate and lovely portraits of our friends and family, who were there to celebrate with us. Having those moments captured in images reminds us of the love all around us when we got married this fall. The collection of images is a treasure!”

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.

“Working with Villa was one of the best choices we made as part of wedding planning. During the initial planning, she was responsive, thoughtful, and considerate of our vision. She understands that most people have never planned a wedding before helped us not only plan photos, but reorganize our reception to flow better. My husband and I are very photo shy, enough so that we debated on whether or not to even hire a photographer for the wedding. Villa was so great at directing interesting, natural poses that didn't feel forced or awkward in the moment. We opt-ed not to do an engagement shoot, but if we had to do it all over again, we absolutely would with Villa. During day of, Villa was extremely detailed and organized. She arrived early to the venue to capture photos and understand the space overall. She was very good about taking photos in a way that didn't interrupt the flow of events while navigating a fairly large and irregularly shaped venue. We received a great blend of editorial and photo-journalistic images that really captured the day beautifully. She has a great eye for wide shots, close up details, and artistic framing. Our wedding day started on a sunny day at noon and ended in the evening. Villa shot great photos throughout all the lighting changes during the day including many flash photography and low light shots after the sun had set.

One of my life goals is to have enough dogs (dachshunds and corgis) to create a sled team. I will use this sled team to pull myself around while shooting your wedding. I’m joking, unless you really want me to, in which maybe WE should get married.

“My husband Will and I got married in October and we planned everything together. Hands down, the easiest and best decision we made (besides going through with the marriage ;-)) was picking Chris as our photographer. He was so easy to work with from the get go. We set up a brief meeting, shared our vision (we wanted a "photojournalist approach"), and mapped out a schedule of events. Anything that we did not think to ask, he made sure to bring up and help make our vision more complete. Chris was excellent at capturing all of the tiny moments of the night without being in anyone's way. The pictures that he captured were absolutely STUNNING--the perfect amount of sentimental moments captured in beautiful lighting and silly off the cuff moments that captured the essence of each and every guest. We would work again with Chris in a heartbeat and friends have already requested his contact information for their ceremony. As an added bonus, because we did not end up using Chris for all of the allotted time, he offered to do a separate photoshoot whenever we would like. It's those little attention to details and customer service which make Chris stand out from the rest. Overall, Chris was kind, professional, quick to edit and publish photos, and an amazing photographer. You would not do wrong by hiring him!”

Hi, friend! I am a wedding & family photographer serving Northern Virginia and Washington, DC, and worldwide. I value inclusion, authenticity, and photographing couples and their families in a genuine and beautiful way. I support love in all its forms and am an Equally Wed Pro LGBTQ+ Certified Inclusive Professional. I treat all clients with respect and empathy, and will tell your love story with beautiful, timeless images.

“We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Michelle as our wedding photographer. She captured not only the two days of our wedding weekend but also our bridal shower and engagement shoot, and we are beyond thrilled with the results. Michelle’s kindness and thoughtfulness shone through in every interaction. She truly cared about us and always put us first, making sure we felt comfortable and supported throughout the process. From the very first meeting, Michelle embraced our untraditional approach to our nuptials and celebrations! She took the time to understand our vision and priorities, and her attention to detail ensured that every moment we cared about was perfectly documented. Her professionalism and skill are unmatched. Whether it was the candid emotions of the bridal shower, the intimacy of our engagement shoot, or the grand celebrations of our wedding weekend, Michelle captured it all with a keen eye and an artistic touch. The photos are stunning and timeless, each one telling a story and bringing us right back to those special moments. What truly set Michelle apart was her ability to seamlessly blend into the events while still capturing every important detail. She managed to be everywhere at once without being intrusive, and her calm demeanor was a steadying presence during such a busy time. She was a safe face/person that weekend for sure! We are so grateful to Michelle for not only her work but the friendship we have created with her! She gave us memories we will treasure for a lifetime, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also genuinely cares about her clients, Michelle is the one!”

“I recently officiated a wedding, where Natalia was the photographer. Natalia was very friendly and helpful as we prepared for the ceremony. I was able to see some of her pictures afterwards and her pictures were fire! They were so good. I also had the opportunity to see pictures from an earlier photo shoot of the couple and they were breathtaking. Natalia was in the right place at the right time - Capturing the moment. Definitely would recommend her services!”

Greetings, I am Tigran Markaryan, accompanied by my wife, Evgeniya. As an Armenian immigrant who relocated to the United States nearly two decades ago, I have dedicated myself to the art of wedding photography since 2011, having beautifully documented over 300 celebrations. Recently, I bid farewell to Calypso Digital and embraced a fresh chapter with Daydream Romance. My passion lies in the photojournalistic approach, as I find immense joy in capturing the essence and energy of people. As I explore more destination weddings, I still mainly work in the DMV area. Stop by at out Insta and reach out with any questions ❤

“Tigran was so easy to work with from day one! He took our engagement photos and wedding photos and they all turned out so beautifully. He had a wonderful vision for each moment and was so lovely to all of our friends and family. He is a true artist and we couldn’t recommend highly enough!”
