From the owner: For the last seven years Trick The Light has been shooting local sports events. I discovered that…read moreweddings and family events are just as exciting to photograph, in a very different way. For me, photography is all about human emotion and intensity. A wedding is the most intense and emotional day of your life, which makes me very exited to become part of it. All the rituals and milestones of life are thrilling. You should be with your family, in the moment, leave the photography to me. You expect that at a wedding, but it's true at a Bar Mitzvah, graduation, anniversary party, or reunion too. I have found the traditions of cultures other than my own very personally rewarding to shoot. I can see through the eyes of someone new to your traditions. There is a saying that you have to travel to get the best photos, but that just isn't true, there is so much variety right here.

I was pretty relaxed and let them take full creative control and I'm so glad I did! If you're looking for a team that delivers both artistic photography and cinematic videography, we couldn't recommend Catch Motion enough! They truly stand out against other South Asian photographers.

Samantha was genuinely welcoming, kept things moving without making it feel rushed, and gave clear direction that made it easy to relax in front of the camera. Their setup looked dialed in, too. The lighting was clean and flattering, the camera gear felt legit, and I especially appreciated the floor mat they used to guide where to stand. That small touch made posing way easier and kept everything consistent, which really shows in the final shots. The photo quality came out awesome.

Most know the saying "you get what you pay for"; well with Ellie it couldn't be more true! I've…read morebeen cruising the internet for months (yes, months) now trying to find a place my fiancé and I can get photos taken. First I purchased a Groupon, then quickly returned it after reading the reviews ($19 but the reviews were horrifying!)... Then, since it's the holidays, JC Penny has a sale right now so I was going to do that, then when I spoke with them on the phone it sounded more like a drive-through photo session (you get 10 minutes and if you're late AT ALL you lose your spot), so I said -- naah... Anyway, you get where I'm going with this - I couldn't find anything "good" until I searched Google and Ellie's name appeared. I read the reviews, went on her website and saw the prices. At first I wasn't sure I wanted to spend that kind of money but hey - it's an hour long shoot, the reviews are amazing and it's something special for my fiancé and me so what the heck right?! :) YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! She is so sweet, poses you in many different positions, and even gives you the option to do your own thing/poses if you want. Well worth the money I promise! And if you won't take my word for it read the other reviews! :) She's a gem! I had no idea what to expect, but something about her just makes you feel at ease and able to have a nice session whether it's a boudoir, family photos, or just nice pics like what my fiancé & I wanted. Thank you Ellie! KR

The final photos are exactly what I'd hoped for. He captured the emotion and joy of the moment perfectly. If you're looking for a talented and professional photographer for any special milestone, I cannot recommend Kelly highly enough!

We shot on an absolutely freezing day ("feels like 17 degrees" I'm pretty sure), yet she kept us comfortable as she could, guided us clearly through poses, and made the time fly, even offering me a blanket between shots. I was convinced the wind and cold ruined everything (I could not control my face or hair with the wind), but the photos were absolutely (and almost surprisingly) stunning. Her talent as a photographer, instructor, and editor is unmatched, and her turnaround time was amazingly fast. We would 1000% work with her again- maternity, newborn, and beyond. Book with her!

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.

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!
