When booking my wedding photographer, I talked to a few different photographers and within the…read morefirst two minutes of talking to Pamela, I knew she was the one. She took the time to ask what I wanted and really wanted to know what I wanted to get from my photos. She asked about my details and what style I wanted. She was extremely sweet and from that phone conversation alone I could tell she had a true passion for wedding photography. Pamela wasn't just my wedding photographer, she was a friend. I booked her about a year in advance and she checked in periodically throughout that year. We had several interactions leading up to the day (phone, email, in person) where she spent time helping me plan the ends and odds of my wedding, she even helped me come up with my wedding timeline. She also visited my venue to brainstorm ideas before the big day and even sent me an itinerary. She really thinks of everything! On my wedding day, Pamela & her assistant Sergey (I hope the spelling is right) were phenomenal. They got a ton of great pictures and came up with a lot of amazing ideas for photos. They both are extremely detail oriented. They made sure my train was perfect at all times, that Matt's tie was straight, you name it, they saw it. At the end of the night, they even offered to stay later to get additional photos. I am extremely grateful for those two. I then received my wedding photos within 2 weeks, not just your standard preview or sneak peak but ALL of them and on top of that they look AMAZING. Thank you Pamela! I can't wait to get another excuse to use you in the future!

We went with Pamela because she was consistently rated the #1 wedding photographer in the DC area…read moreby weddingwire, theknot, etc and because she was referred to us by a friend. We are so glad that we did! The pictures came out amazing and we hardly knew she was there. I would have paid twice as much for the album and digitals that we ordered. Pamela is very professional and will make sure you get every picture that you want. She also captured hundreds of other amazing artistic shots that I would have never dreamed of. Bottomline- if you are having a wedding in the DC area, or want photos for another occassion or corporate event, go with Pamela!

We couldn't have asked for a better team of photographers for such a special moment. Huy also completed and sent our photos to us super quickly which was a huge plus! We highly recommend if you're looking for a skilled photographer who cares about capturing your important memories.

Huy went above and beyond to ensure this was an experience of a lifetime, a lasting memory, one we would never forever. And he succeeded. Huy kept an open line of communication, he was punctual, creative, incredibly patient with our little one, kind, has a sense of humor, transparent, professional and interpersonal. We connected instantly. He delivered the photos way earlier than promised although he had back to back shoots happening that week. He managed our expectations well and it was evident he knew what he was doing and had years of experience in the industry. All in all, thank you Huy! These photos will be in our family for generations to come. We can't wait for our next family shoot with you. Best shoot ever. I'm in love. We did that. All 4 of us. You're officially our family's photographer. So glad we found you. Stuck with us now!

A little over a decade ago, I was searching for a photographer in the Washington DC area who would…read morebe able to take proposal photos as a surprise to my now wife. Jae was one of the photographers who reached out and ultimately the one I ended up going with. Looking back, it was absolutely the right choice! He was incredibly helpful in planning out the proposal and choosing the best location for our photos. He answered all of my questions and was easy to get in touch with both before and on the night of the proposal, keeping me updated and making sure everything was ready before the big moment. The photos turned out perfect! Even today, they stand out as some of our favorite pictures. Fast forward 10 years later - I had an idea to get a kind of "follow up" set with our daughter for our 10th anniversary. I reached out to see if Jae was still in the area and if he'd have some availability to do these for us. He got back to me fast and we ended up planning everything out, starting right back where the proposal happened. This time was just as great! Jae was fantastic with our daughter and really helped bring out her smile. He was great posing us and knew exactly how to work each location we walked to. The photos (again) turned out fantastic! Being able to look back at both sets side by side, a decade later, is like opening a time capsule - it's just so cool!

Jae is an amazing photographer and I highly recommend him! If you're looking for someone who will…read morego above and beyond expectations, Jae is the man. He is very responsive and detail oriented. I hired him to take photos of my proposal. From the start, he removed all the stress out of planning so I only had to focus on actually proposing. He was essentially a photographer and a planner! Once I chose the general location and time of the proposal, Jae went out of his way to scout the place beforehand. He provided me with the exact spots with the best background, detailed diagrams of how to get to the spot, and how to propose for the best shots. Because it was an outdoor location, Jae helped me come up with contingency plans and what to do for each case. My fiancée and I are more awkward when it comes to photos but Jae brings in over 10 years of experience. He was able to help us get into the best poses and he edited the photos to make us really shine. Jae even stayed up late to finish editing our photos earlier than anticipated when he found out we were heading out of town soon after. I am truly thankful for Jae's help.

From start to finish, working with Denise was great. She met with us before our session to help us…read moreget a comfort level with her work, approach, and shooting style. She helped us figure out what we were looking for in pictures and scouted a great location for fall pictures. When it came to the shoot, she was extremely flexible in setting a rain date (which we ended up needing!). On the day of the shoot, Denise encouraged us to act as we normally do and captured so many great photos. She helped us to feel comfortable in front of the camera and found lots of sweet moments with our 7 month old son. After the session, we were able to see some sneak peaks within a couple of days, and received the full photo gallery within a week. We love so many of the pictures and were able to use them for the family Christmas card, grandparent gifts, and even photos to hang up at home. We will treasure the photos she took of our young family and are so grateful for her talent!

With everyone being able to take photos with their phones these days, I found that they are never…read morethe quality I want for large family photos. Lillis Werder has a gift for capturing the moment and the personalities of the people being photographed. Especially for families with children and pets. Her photos are perfectly focused and the lighting and backgrounds compliment the people but do not detract from them. Many years of experience and an eye for the final results made her our best choice for a rare sibling photo. Lillis is easy to work with and it's a non stressful, relaxed experience. She also has years of experience doing photography for foreign governments, businesses, real estate, travel and event photos. I really love her photos of rodeos, cowboys and epic travel destinations. Look at her Esty shop and webpage www.Lillisphotography.com. That's where I found several pieces that are now on my walls too. She uses the very best printing available and highest quality paper or canvas for many, many years of crisp, non faded photos. We've all seen family photos from chain photography studios that faded to a reddish tone hanging on grandma's walls. That is a product of cheap processing. Better results cost a little more but a well done photo will be enjoyed for generations. And for once, I was in all the photos instead of behind the camera.

My mom had already set up a session with Ms. Lillis and as a good only child, I obliged. All I can say is I'm SO glad my mom found Ms. Lillis. My boyfriend and I met her in Old Town Manassas, but she was willing to meet anywhere. She was so friendly and welcoming. She even brought a couple props like a mock diploma for me to hold! Her son was also there to help with equipment and tell jokes to make me laugh! She made me feel so comfortable and beautiful. The vision she has for capturing a good picture is astounding. We were able to mix our visions of what we wanted the session to be and have the best time. She even let my boyfriend jump in a couple pictures. Over 100 pictures were taken that day, so I was expecting at least a week before I got to see the photos. The very next day, Lillis sends the photos she had taken of me and WOW! The colors were so bold and the lighting was one of my favorite elements of each photo. She also included some silly photos that ended up being some of the best ones! She is immensely talented and personable. I highly recommend her for any event that you may need pictures for!

She guided me throughout the session and even fixed my hair to make sure everything was perfect! She took numerous shots and showed them to me to make sure I was happy with them. She offered her opinions of the pictures when asked and couldn't be any nicer. After the session, she told me to expect the final headshot within a few hours and it was perfect! We had a very easy going flow and great conversation the entire time. She made it super comfortable and I couldn't have asked for a better session.

We had a candidate withdraw their acceptance of their new job, and so we informed Sam a month in advance that we no longer needed his services.

Upon review of his website, I see it is buried in his terms and conditions page. Why someone would choose to do business this way, I have no idea. I could not in good conscience take my customers' money and then refuse to refund it even if I performed no work. Sam feels differently.
