Ever After Portraits is a mother-daughter team who specialize in wedding photography — we are wedding photojournalist, who capture moments that tell the love story of our brides and grooms. We also do engagement photography, destination wedding photography, day after, trash the dress, family portraits, and lifestyle portrait sessions.

Two of our good friends, Kesha and Troy, tied the knot — and we couldn’t be happier!   Our favorite part of the day was when Troy saw  what Kesha had inscribed on his wedding ring…”My friend, My love 07-06-07″ — we think the look on his face says it all!   That’s one of the things we love about designing albums…telling the story of the day.   Okay, their ceremony was a little less than conventional with no bridesmaids or groomsmen…and the formals were a liiiitttttlllle late….that’s why we have mucho shots of Troy…being himself…;>}   But the bride arrived, the vows were spoken, the cake was smeared and all could see the bond that is shared between these two…we think it’s true love.

How about you?

We also do engagement photography, destination wedding photography, day after, trash the dress, family portraits, and lifestyle portrait sessions.

We had LOADS of fun with Chris and April at the beach!!  Chris is hands down one of the wittiest, and just generally funny grooms we’ve met this year — he had April — and us — laughing through the whole session.  This sure doesn’t feel like work when you have a pair like these two!

One the hardest parts of this job is — believe it or not — picking songs that showcase the couple.  Everyone’s tastes are different — and we will admit, our tastes in music are slightly eclectic…;>}

But riding home in the car, Joriana and I knew right away the song that would represent the FUN this couple is going to have in life –Make her laugh just like Jim Carey….

Chris and April, thanks for a great time at the beach!  We look forward to sharing the joy of your wedding —

Portraits | Dunn Loring VA| Photographer Family Portrait | Mandy

Each photographer family portrait in Dunn Loring, Virginia enjoys doing portraits.

Mandy, our lovely bride from last June, is our first “Trash the Dress” bride. She recently spent a couple of hours with us on a hot July day

Have you heard of the “Trash the Dress” concept?? Whether you are a recent bride or have been married for several years, no doubt you said your “I dos” once for all time. “Trash the Dress” is a wonderful way to reaffirm your commitment to your husband … and let him know you’ll never need that wedding dress again!

Storing it in your closet or a hope chest to hand down to your daughter …that’s a wonderfully beautiful idea. But how many daughters do you know that get married in their mother’s dress?? Or if you’re getting married for the second time, I’ll bet it’s not in the same dress!!

So why not trash it?? You supply the dress, and we’ll do the rest. You will have a contemporary and unique portrait session!

We had lots of fun with Mandy with her “Trash the Dress” session . . . and we’re certain that her husband James will LOVE this slideshow . . .

Studio Photographer | Clifton VA| Photographer Family Photos | Jermaine and Niesha

Photographer Family photos in Clifton are great for a studio photographer.

Ever After Portraits is a mother-daughter team who specialize in wedding photography — we are wedding photojournalist, who capture moments that tell the love story of our brides and grooms. We also do engagement photography, destination wedding photography, day after, trash the dress, family portraits, and lifestyle portrait sessions.

Jermaine and Niesha’s wedding was just awesome!

Things we really loved about it:   Everything was details, details, details.   This wedding was super organized  — and it showed.   The ceremony not only ran right on time, but  everyone was  dressed to the nines — tails and canes, no less!     Keeping the ceremony and reception in one location in Potomac Falls, Virginia always means less stress for this bride and groom.

Watching Jermaine’s face as he said his vows — and seeing the look on Neisha’s face as her groom spoke those words — well, it is just one of the best parts of our job.

Jermaine and Niesha value the visual record of their once in a lifetime event — they prepaid for their album when they retained us.     With busy lives and a new marriage, they took advantage of the service we include — designing a beautiful album that tells the story of their day.   Now, their finished album will be in their hands only weeks after their wedding!   Pretty smart, we say.     They took to heart our words that we  don’t want you to just remember you HAD a wedding day.  We want you to feel those moments again and again as you look through your album.

Thank you Jermaine and Niesha — we loved being part of your special day!

Family Photographer | Chantilly VA| Photographer Family Photo |Troy and Kesha — an intimate day of emotion!

Each photographer family photo in Chantilly has a family photographer that they use.

Ever After Portraits is a mother-daughter team who specialize in wedding photography — we are wedding photojournalist, who capture moments that tell the love story of our brides and grooms. We also do engagement photography, destination wedding photography, day after, trash the dress, family portraits, and lifestyle portrait sessions.

Well, they did it — Troy and Kesha said their I do’s!

This smart bride and groom wanted to go directly to the reception after, so they arranged to have the majority of their images taken before the wedding. A slight delay in his bride’s arrival to the portrait site did nothing to dampen this groom’s spirits.   You can see that he wasn’t anxious — he spent the time waiting kicking up his heels just thinking about the days to come with his boo!

Congratulations, Troy and Kesha — may your life always be joyous!

Be sure to check back in three weeks to view the proofs and order  images.
