We had a great experience with Amative Creative for our wedding! One thing that really made them stand out was that they offer so many different editing styles to choose from, so we were able to pick exactly the look we wanted. They also got our photos back to us super quickly—about a week after the wedding—which was such a nice surprise. The photos turned out beautiful and they captured all the big moments and some great candid shots. I especially love how cool the dance floor shots turned out. We received tons of compliments on the pictures! Highly recommend!

Nathan Sottung Photography, LLC. 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
Leesburg, VA
  • Photojournalistic style

Hi, I’m Nathan. I don’t just photograph weddings—I quietly witness them. With a calm, steady presence and deep respect for the sacred, I create space for you to stay present while I preserve what matters most. I focus on the moments that often pass unnoticed: the breath before the aisle, light spilling through stained glass, a parent’s quiet tears as vows are exchanged. Couples choose me for my ability to bring peace into the room and create images that feel honest, reverent, and timeless—photographs meant to be cherished for generations.

Awarded Best of Zola
Before the wedding, Nathan was attentive and details-oriented as he helped us plan and figure out what photos were the most important to us. He met with us over Zoom and in-person at the venue to walk through the day and provided countless suggestions and tips to make sure the photography and ceremony went smoothly. During the wedding, Nathan took both phenomenal posed photos and brilliant candids. He was a constant presence with a cameras holstered on each hip, like a cowboy with lenses instead of six-shooters. He worked quickly to get us a selection of social-media ready the same day, perfect to share with family across the world who couldn't make it. After the wedding, Nathan's editing and communication skills are top-notch. He even drove out (over an hour!) to take some photos of a sapphire ring of my new wife's - it's a family heirloom she wore during the wedding that she wanted additional photos of. When we tried to pay for these additional photos, he waved us off. Nathan truly went above and beyond the call of duty. In terms of quality, the photos he took are top-notch. We have fantastic posed photos, often with little touches he suggested in the moment to ensure we looked relaxed, smiling, and at our best. His candids are some of my favorite photos in the world and perfectly capture what was a perfect day. Nathan's humor, attention to detail, and devotion to getting every shot right make hiring him one of the best wedding decisions we made. I would heartily recommend hiring Nathan and plan on calling on him if we have photography needs in the future.

We found Bakerture as a recommended vendor through our wedding planner.

We went with the typical photographer package and added on a second photographer which I highly recommend you do. The extra photos were very worth it considering they all came out amazing. When it came to the day of, she was very professional and so fast when taking all the pictures! We actually ended up being ahead of time! It made me slightly nervous, but after getting the photos back I knew there was no reason to be, Rita was just that good. She captured our wedding day amazing, highly HIGHLY recommend working with her!

Leesburg, VA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,450

Stephanie Leigh Photography & Design is boutique photography studio based in lovely Loudoun County Virginia. Focusing on photography & videography services specializing in weddings, micro weddings, elopements & engagements.

Stephanie was probably our favorite person to work with for our wedding. She is fun, personable, confident and an amazing photographer. We found her through Visit Loudoun, a group that helps connect vendors to engaged couples. Upon our first meeting with her, she was a clear contender, and we couldn't be happier to have chosen to work with her! We actually found out shortly before our first meeting that my now-husband's sister had also booked Stephanie for HER wedding 6 months before ours. We made it clear from the beginning of our conversations that we were two very different couples and wanted to make sure that our pictures would not look the same/similar in comparison to one another. Stephanie understood this fully and was not put off by this at all. We were excited to book the videographer package with her and even were able to add in an extra hour last minute when our timeline was finalized and we wanted to make sure she got pictures of all the fun things we had planned! Stephanie got our pictures and videos to us very quickly and was very easy to work with and quick on edits of photos that we requested as well. I keep referring to the pictures of our wedding party as our magazine spread. The colors look amazing and every photo is just so BEAUTIFUL!

I am married to a handsome man and I’m also a mom. I am from the Dominican Republic, raised in the beautiful island of Puerto Rico.

Zaida and her husband were incredible. I couldn’t ask for a better team to capture our big day! We discussed expectations and a shot list beforehand and they exceeded my expectations. The sneak peak arrived less than a week after the wedding and the final edits were delivered on time! Not only did they make both me and my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera, but by the end of the night they felt like family. If you’re debating which photographer to go with, Zaida is the one. Highly recommend!

Dreaming of vibrant, whimsical wedding photos with no travel fees? Hi, I'm Sophia! Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph. It's been six years and I've photographed close to 100 weddings which seems unreal! The photography gene runs in my family, my great-grandfather had his own photography studio in Panama and from there, knowledge of photography was passed down through the generations of my family to me. I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — candid, authentic, and joyful.

Fueled by equal parts sweet tea and passion, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Your story, your love, is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come. I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations on the front porch. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

Melinda was an absolute joy to work with throughout the entire process. We first met her for our engagement photos, which gave us the chance to get to know her and feel more comfortable together before the big day. By the time our wedding arrived, it was clear that her vision perfectly aligned with everything we had hoped for—it was truly perfect. Melinda (and her day of team) were incredibly professional, warm, and wonderful with all of our guests. We honestly can’t imagine our day without her. The photos we’ve seen so far are stunning, and we’re so excited to see the rest!

There are no amount of words to be able to explain how much I enjoyed working with Morgan for our wedding! Long story short, 6 weeks out we were suddenly in need of a new photographer & videographer. I frantically posted in a wedding facebook group & Morgan was recommended. Having to find a new photographer & finding Morgan was a huge blessing in disguise. From our first call, she made me feel at ease with her not only capturing our love story but also as an asset to help things run smoothly on our big day! Though we met Morgan for the first time on our wedding day, she immediately made us feel comfortable. She is so fun and kind but also knows how to take charge when needed! She is extremely organized & did a great job capturing the photos I wanted based on inspiration photos. Our bridal party had so much fun taking photos which says a lot if you've ever been a part of one. My hubby even enjoyed taking photos which he hates to do! Her second shooter, Hannah, was super sweet, a great help, and added amazing ideas & photos. Morgan gave us so many beautiful photos that we will cherish forever! I seriously can't recommend Morgan enough!!
