We are likely leaving the area in early 2014 so I wanted to have some professional photos done of…read moremyself with my husband and our greyhound to commemorate our time here. After doing some online research and talking with a few photographers I decided to work with Stacey. We met in Old Town Alexandria one Saturday afternoon in October. I was nervous at first but shortly into our photo session I felt at ease as Stacey is friendly, professional and fun, not to mention amazing at what she does! She was also great with our greyhound and got some adorable shots of him. Stacey has a wonderful eye for light and color and found a lot of unique backgrounds for our photos. Our online gallery was available after about a week and a half and the results were fantastic! Soon after, Stacey scheduled a free consultation with us to view all our photos on the large computer screen that she has and to help us pick out which prints and framing options we wanted to put up in our home. She even helped us decide how best to place the photos on the wall. We received all our prints last week and have gotten our framed prints up on the wall, we couldn't be happier! If we were staying in the area I would absolutely work with Stacey again in the future.

Stacey is amazing. I first met her through a friend that was organizing a head shots evening for…read morelots of professional friends, so I bought 15 min in a studio with Stacey and got the best headshot that has come in so very handy many times. I moderated a panel last week and a panelist I was being introduced to said, "yes, the woman with the most amazing head shot." Yesterday morning we did our 5th(!) family mini session shoot with Stacey in a garden next to the Capitol. It's wonderful to get these beautiful shots of our children growing up -- and have some shots with me that I love that aren't selfies! Years ago Stacey took an iconic (among our family and friends) photo of my son sulking off to the left of the Washington monument when my husband and I were were standing to the right smiling while pregnant with our daughter. That same day Stacey was able to joke around with our son and get the best shots of him smiling and enjoying himself. Our daughter enjoys the shoots just as much. Thank you, Stacey!

Words cannot describe how lucky we feel to have found Charlie! He is so amazing to work with, he is…read moreso positive and flexible, we had a blast hanging out with him and were sad to say goodbye. You can tell that this is his passion and he approached our session with a lot of excitement. When saying goodbye, he literally said, "he couldn't wait to start editing our shoot and would get a sneak peak to us in two days". We received our beautiful sneak peak 8 hours later! Half way through the session, I started wondering how we could work with him again. Another aspect that I really liked is that Charlie had a vision of what he wanted to do for our session. When I had confirmed our appointment, we discussed what I liked about our location and what I was looking for, and from that Charlie made a plan. He was open to anything we wanted to try, but we didn't waste any of our session thinking about what the next shot would be- Charlie already had it queued up for us! It should be mentioned, although I'm a bit embarrassed, that we were 10 minutes late because I was getting my hair done at drybar. Charlie was beyond gracious about it and said to not stress because it would affect the pictures. I do not recommend being late because it is rude and inconsiderate, but when I was late, I really appreciated Charlie making me feel better about it. Long story short, Charlie is amazingly talented and incredibly easy to work with. I cannot recommend him enough.

John recently photographed our wedding, and in an industry where so much can go wrong (and so…read moreunexpectedly), we couldn't be happier with the results. He made us feel comfortable and secure throughout such a stressful process. He's a professional through and through, and went above and beyond to ensure that everything went perfectly on our big day. Our photos are beautiful and truly capture the feelings of that day -- we're lucky to have landed someone as experienced, on top of it, and thoughtful as him. He was very easy to communicate with (and I can't say the same for many of our other wedding vendors). His creativity and vision resulted in loads of unique shots/perspectives that most photographers never would have even thought of, and he made the most of our small and unique venue. I know John doesn't often do weddings, but we highly recommend him for events both private and public -- he's the best there is!

My biggest goal…read morefor this project was to create an experience where a group of breast cancer survivors could feel confident and beautiful, and Damon went far beyond anything I could have imagined. I came into this project still figuring out the vision, and after sharing just a bit about my goals, Damon took it and ran. His creativity is unmatched and he brought forward a vision that was more powerful, intentional, and meaningful than anything I could have come up with on my own. What impressed me just as much was how prepared he was. Damon had clearly done extensive research ahead of time, thoughtfully planning each location and even specific poses for every individual. The entire shoot flowed seamlessly, which made such a difference in creating a comfortable, uplifting experience for our survivors. Not only is he incredibly talented, but he is professional, dedicated, and truly cares about the people he's working with. If you are in the DC area, don't look any further -- just book Damon. He is truly the best of the best.
