I can't exactly remember how I found Liz but I don't care, I'm just glad I did!…read more We booked a studio newborn session for our first little one and the entire experience and final product was more than we could have hoped for. It started with a lovely phone call for us to get to know each other and for Liz to get to know what our goal was for the photos. In our case the studio session was the right call. Our little one had some minor issues that left our hospital discharge date in limbo but Liz was so kind and accommodating in working with us to find the best day. It was a relief because it allowed my husband to join and worked around his crazy schedule. The studio is warm and welcoming. Liz is such an easy and gentle person and it was such a pleasure to chat with her during the session. Being a nurse and having little ones herself made me feel extra safe handing over my two week old for a couple of hours. She was really receptive to our wants for the photos. They turned out absolutely adorable! I squealed when I got the final images. We got some family shots, some cutesy shots, and some detail shots as well. A perfect mix to remember our baby girl's first few weeks of life. If you're anywhere in the DMV area I encourage you to reach out to Liz. Once you chat with her for a minute I'm certain you'll book her for your maternity or baby photos. We can't wait to return for more photos as our little one grows. Thank you Liz!

What can I say about Marco Ibanez and his work? It's remarkable! I thought I'd go in and I'd only…read morelike a couple of shots but there were 180+photos that I loved. His work surpasses any others that I've seen and he also teaches photography. He created such a relaxed atmosphere and I was completely comfortable right from the beginning.

I've shot boudoir with him a few times and I've always been super pleased with his work. His style is distinct and has been a great addition to my portfolio. My friends have also worked with him and we have all went back for more shoots, both photos and video. That says a lot about a photographer. I've never had to wait long for the proofs to come back, it was always done over a web call where several images were already edited and I chose the ones I liked. I submitted payment, and boom, all my photos were uploaded to my dropbox! Super efficient! On top of that, I've never once felt uncomfortable around him. All that is important when you're considering working with a photographer.

I was so afraid of glare making everything look awful. I'm so glad I found Ashley! She is an incredibly talented photographer with an artist's eye for details. Our pictures are fantastic, especially the photos of the tanks. Ashley uses top-of-the-line equipment, and brings a lighting assistant, as well as simply knowing her profession incredibly well. I'm also very glad that Ashley includes an engagement photo session in her packages. We weren't sure if we wanted to do one, but again, Ashley's experience here was invaluable. The engagement photo session let us get to know her, and helped us practice posing so that it was effortless on the big day. The pictures were promptly delivered on a personal website and a flash drive, and I couldn't be happier with them! We will be getting an album designed by Ashley as well, and I cannot wait!

We fell in love with her spirit and her amazing photos. She is hands down the most affordable, best deal money can buy in the DC area. We chose a package that included an engagement photo shoot and her service all day at the wedding. She has an uncanny way of capturing details, relationships, and fun. We literally laughed and cried out loud from the emotion that we got from both our engagement pictures and our wedding photos. Her photo journalistic style really told the story of our entire wedding. It was truly amazing. Olivia even surprised us by bringing a second photographer with her for the entire day, free of charge. Literally, they were with us from 9am to 11pm! The span of photos they took was truly impressive, and the quality was breathtaking. You will not be disappointed by Olivia's character, work ethic, and tremendous skill. We hope that we can use her again when we need to capture another memory.

He delivers great quality photos unique to each person/ session. His turnaround time is great as well. So glad I found him as I am looking forward to including Eric and his work in more of my life's milestones.
