I'm so happy we chose Portrayts. From the first message they were super responsive and clear about…read morepackages, timing and what was included. We booked them for a small event plus a short portrait session, and they handled both perfectly. On the day of the shoot they arrived early, walked the location with us and suggested poses and spots that I would never have thought of. They gave just enough direction so we felt comfortable, but also captured a lot of natural, candid moments. Several guests even commented on how friendly and professional they were. Turnaround time was exactly what they promised and the final photos/video were beautiful - sharp, great colors, and edited in a clean, modern style (no over-filtering). They sent everything in an easy online gallery so it was simple to download and share with family. If you're looking for a team that actually listens to what you want and delivers high-quality photo and video work, I'd 100% recommend Portrayts. We'll definitely be booking them again.

I feel very fortunate to have found Erin by chance on Yelp. I haven't even seen our pictures yet…read more(our wedding was just last night), but without a doubt I know we're going to love them. I was really impressed when I knew Erin had gone to our wedding location in advance to scout it out. She showed up on our wedding day on time, with a plan, with creative, thoughtful ideas, and with the cutest, bubbliest personality. Without even having seen our pictures, I can say with confidence we will use her again in the future. Thanks so much Erin!

I am forever indebted to Erin for taking amazing photos of my husband and I on our wedding day (Pi…read moreDay 2016). Erin was accommodating, thoughtful and genuinely fun! When I mentioned I wanted to take photos on the National Mall, she let me know I needed to apply for and receive a permit from the National Park Service (we called it our donation fee to keep from getting bitter with NPS). It took longer than expected to get from one end of DC to another due to an unexpected road closure (dignitary motorcade), so we were running about an hour late. I was so grateful Erin was willing to wait for our arrival on a day that is best described as "unseasonably cold". Erin kept the initial portion of the photo shoot moving as she knew those under 7 years old and over 70 years old were expiring fast in the cold weather. She even was able to coax a smile out of Alexandra (my niece) who at 7 months old believes in "stranger danger." My favorite part of the photo shoot was the time my husband and I got to spend "just us" with Erin as it felt fun (and we got to kiss a lot). The photos turned out amazingly beautiful and I loved her creative shots! Erin knew just where to take us on an overcast day! Erin even had a blueberry pie on hand for Pi Day. It's those special touches that don't scream cheesy, but scream memorable! I included a few samples (and possibly I'm not the best model) but Erin truly made all of look amazing.

We had an amazing experience working with Tess and Ryan at Hourglass Arts. Ryan came out to our…read morehome with his Canon R3 to photograph an indoor baby naming ceremony for our twin daughters, and the photos are truly some of the highest-quality pictures we have as a family. We had about 20 friends and family over and wanted a mix of candid shots, family portraits, and photos of the ceremony itself. Ryan captured everything beautifully -- the big moments, the small emotional details, and the natural energy of the day. Tess and Ryan were also incredibly communicative from our early conversations through the final edits and delivery. They made the whole process easy, professional, and stress-free. We'll definitely be reaching out to them again next time we're in the area!

The Bells & Whistles team was everything we could have hoped for: calm, kind, professional, and incredibly talented. They somehow managed to be everywhere without ever being intrusive, and their attention to detail and creativity shone through.

I first met Pat Cash when she started taking pictures for our hockey organizations and our hockey…read moretournaments. Her action shots and team photos were beyond superb. At the same time, I was in the market for a new family photographer as my old photographer switched to doing only weddings. My boys had their first session with Pat last spring. My little guy was a bit difficult, but Pat was able to create images of him that truly captured his personality and essence. When I showed people at work the photos, they were blown away by the artistry and beauty of the images. My middle son is a model and immediately secured work with the head shot Pat took. We go to Pat every three months for updated head shots and I could not be happier with the results. Every job I have commissioned Pat for, she has blown it out of the water. I can't recommend her highly enough. Her heart and soul shows through in every photo she takes. My dear friend was recently diagnosed with late stage cancer. Before she started treatment, we wanted to buy her and her family photos. When I approached Pat about this job, she jumped at it. The pictures she took of this family were beyond beautiful and serve as an inspiration source as my friend endures the rigors of chemo. This was a special photo shoot to me and my friends, there is nobody on the earth that I would have trusted with this special job except for Pat Cash.
