You Get One Day
Let’s Make It Look (and Feel) Unforgettable
Authentic, emotion-filled photography from the first look to the final song.
You’ve probably looked through more wedding photographer websites than you can count. Maybe you’ve seen overexposed edits that wash people out—or photos that feel too posed and too perfect to be real. You’re not just looking for pretty pictures. You want something personal. Something true. You want a photographer who sees you, understands you, and captures your wedding in a way that feels effortless and deeply you. Because this isn’t just any day—it’s one of the biggest, most meaningful moments of your life. And you want it remembered right.
Maryland & DC Wedding and Engagement Photographer
Photos That Feel as Real as Your Love Story
And a Photographer Who’s with You Every Step of the Way
When you work with me, you’re not hiring a stranger—you’re getting a photographer, an advisor, and a friend. I’m there from your first inquiry to the last song of the night, making sure you feel seen, supported, and totally at ease. My job isn’t just to take great photos. It’s to make sure you feel good while I take them. That’s how we capture the kind of images you’ll want to hang on your walls, post everywhere, and flip through for decades. And because we start with an engagement session, we’ll build that trust and comfort way before the big day even begins.
Wedding Photography
A Fully Personalized Experience From "Yes" to "I Do"
No two weddings are the same, so why should your photography package be? Whether you’re planning an intimate courthouse ceremony or a 12-hour celebration with all your favorite people, I offer a range of collections to fit your day. We’ll start with a quick chat to get to know each other, then I’ll recommend a package that fits your vision, timeline, and needs. All collections include high resolution, retouched images and an online gallery for easy viewing and sharing. From there, we customize everything to you—because your story deserves more than a one-size-fits-all solution.

Engagement & Couples Photography
BEFORE THE WEDDING DAY—JUST THE TWO OF YOU
Whether you're planning a surprise proposal or just want to document this chapter before the big day, engagement and couples sessions are a chance to slow down, show up, and get some great photos while you're at it. These sessions are also a solid way to get comfortable in front of the camera before wedding day—with zero pressure and no timeline stress. You can choose between a one-hour couples session or my signature two-hour session with two locations and outfit changes. Either way, we’ll keep things laid-back, fun, and fully you.
SIGNATURE SESSION: $750

Surprise Proposal Photography
Because That “Yes” Deserves Its Own Spotlight

Hey, I'm J.
Self-Taught Photographer. Timeline Extraordinaire. Donut Devotee.
Since 2016, I’ve had the honor of photographing over 100 weddings across Maryland, DC, Virginia, and beyond. I’m not the awards type—I’m the kind of guy who gets told by his clients “You felt like a friend the whole day.” That’s what I care about. I bring calm to the chaos, confidence to every shoot, and a steady hand that helps you feel like your best self in front of the camera. My photos are bold, emotional, and filled with life—just like the couples I work with. Think we might be a fit?
