Diana is an excellent photographer and you can see samples of her work all throughout the studio. Her instructions were very good to and I learned quite a bit. The only thing that did not work for me, and which is not against Diana, was that we had a few too many folks for the meetup up session. We were constantly jostling (in a good way) for space to get the perfect shot of the model. Other than that, two thumbs up to Diana and her work!

We recently took our four week old baby boy to Studio Diana for his first portrait session and we…read morecould not be more thrilled with the photos Diana Adams took of us! She was sweet, friendly, talented and patient with us, esp. when our son needed to eat in the middle of the session. Diana also had great suggestions as to what would look good and she showed us examples of her work with other babies and families. Don't hesitate to contact Studio Diana for your family photos...we plan to go back for our son's six month and twelve month pictures!

Kurt and his team were FANTASTIC!…read more My wife and I vetted over 8 DJs and Kurt was by far the most experienced and most personable. Our wedding dances, activities and hosting was FLAWLESS. Song choices matched the vibes, the night moved along perfectly and he even created our first song. Showed up early, cost was extremely fair and he made the event truly memorable. Cannot express how impressed we are and how much we recommend him.

Chloe is one of my favorite photographers. I have had the pleasure to work with her twice. The…read morefirst was a whimsical white dress shoot and the second was a Barbie shoot. She captures the most feminine and sensual photos and she makes you feel comfortable. She is very patient and encourages you to be yourself. For the Barbie shoot, we did close to 5 or 6 different outfits. I love her unique style and creativity. She does great things with the lighting and a few tools that she uses.

We booked Thomas for our wedding and he was fantastic. He was punctual and professional. He did a…read moregreat job managing our requests for both posed and action shots, and he suggested a number of shots for us that turned out great. We're very happy with our 1000+ pictures from the event. Working with Roman was also a pleasure. He promptly answered all of our questions and worked with us to quickly resolve the issue when we had trouble accessing the pictures at the end. We are definitely glad we went with Roman Grinev and we would recommend them to other couples.

My husband and I got married on 7/22/18. We chose Roman Grinev Photography based on the positive…read morereviews they received on Weddingwire and other sites. However, our wedding day experience with Dawn, the photographer that we chose since Roman wasn't available, led to multiple concerns with her poor communication style, inflexibility in working with us, and mostly with her failure to deliver 2 out of the 8.5 contracted service hours. On our wedding day, we wanted pictures of our wedding party taken at the Lincoln Memorial and DC War Memorial. Initially we emailed Roman about our intent and invited him to ride with us in our limo so our trip there would be captured and also because we knew that parking in downtown DC is difficult. We'd have the limo driver drop us off at our locations and pick us up when we were done with pictures. When he reminded us that Dawn was our photographer, we extended the same invite to her during our initial phone conversation. On our wedding day, we repeated our offer, however she declined, saying she would drive separately. Once we got there Dawn told us that she couldn't find parking, didn't want to double park and get a ticket, and therefore wouldn't take pictures of us. This was incredibly frustrating since it could've been easily avoided if she had simply accepted our offer to ride in the limo. We were very disappointed but tried to patiently resolve this directly with Roman over the past 2 months. After we shared our concerns with him, he offered us a free hour session with Dawn. We respectfully declined because of the extra money we'd have to pay for another National Mall photo permit, my makeup and hair, and tuxedo rental for my husband. More importantly, we wouldn't have our entire wedding party there; one of my bridesmaid is from Belgium and my mother is traveling abroad. We then requested a refund of $652 for the missing 2 hours and the photography permit that was never used. Roman gave a counteroffer for an album which he said was valued at $600. Again, we respectfully declined because we already received multiple albums from friends as wedding gifts. At this point, Roman refused to give us a refund and furthermore rescinded his offer for the album and the photo session. He also falsely accused us of not having room in the limo (it was a 14-person limo; specifically the passenger seat was available for Dawn), that I told Dawn to take her own car (completely untrue), and that I said it "wasn't a big deal" that there were no professional pictures taken. We are extremely disappointed that we weren't able to resolve this situation with Roman directly. We are further disheartened that the conversation devolved into a she said/ she said argument with false information. We spent an entire year thoughtfully planning the details for our wedding day and wouldn't just throw it away with such a cavalier statement as it's not "a big deal." This was our wedding day so of course we wanted to capture our moment with all our cherished family and friends together with a professional photographer. Many of the professional pictures taken did turn out well, so we are saddened that not only will we not have professional pictures of our wedding party at the National Mall but that Roman refused to refund us for the lost time. The fact of the matter is that Roman Grinev Photography didn't provide their contractual services and therefore should have given us a refund per their "failure to perform clause" in the contract we signed.

I found Lili by…read morechance, and from the very first email I found her to be responsive, friendly, and helpful in answering my questions and managing my expectations for the shoot. She was very transparent and made me feel relaxed and comfortable throughout the process. Ahead of my shoot she sent a questionnaire so that she could get a sense of the types of photos I was looking to take and my general comfort level, so that she could understand and capture my vision for this experience. I love the way my photos turned out and am so excited to get the final edits! Lili made the entire process from start to finish so easy. This has been such a wonderful experience and I will definitely recommend Femme Photography to any friend looking for this type of experience!

We had a wonderful maternity session and the outcome was excellent. Even the unedited photos were so beautiful that I couldn't help but purchased the entire gallery. We also had our newborn session last week and it was the most peaceful moment for us after childbirth because Nataly is so good with the baby. The parents can just chill and relax during the session. We haven't seen the photos from the newborn session yet but I believe with her skills and all those cute props the photos will be very beautiful.

Hannah Hudson Photography was highly recommended to us by our wedding coordinator and this husband…read moreand wife team was phenomenal from start to finish! Hannah and Stuart were friendly, professional, and provided some great insights and advice. For our engagement shoot, they were accommodating with time and recommended some beautiful locations including some hidden gems in D.C. The photos that came back were beautiful and had a mix of casual fun photos and more formal photos, candid photos and posed photos. This team is truly talented as we had difficulty determining which photos to use for Save the Dates and the website since each photo captured a moment that we are glad to have preserved. Despite having several other weddings to shoot (they are in high demand), Hannah and Stuart repeatedly found time for us and constantly offered advice on photos to shoot, timeline, and colors and decorations. They became more than just photographers during this process, they became confidantes, trusted advisers, and friends! For the day of the wedding, Stuart performed tasks that my own groomsmen could not perform - helping me with my bow tie, bringing a lint roller to get the dog hair off of my tux, and ensuring that I did not look like the sloppiest groom in history. They snapped some absolutely beautiful photos and made sure we had fun doing it. If you need a photographer for an event, I cannot recommend this dynamic duo enough!

It's definitely a little flattering to see him looking back through them from time to time. :) I highly recommend using Hannah for all of your photography needs...she's awesome!!
