About

Some people think wedding photography is stressful, but honestly, I’m excited at that responsibility.

When it comes to weddings, legacy is the most important thing to me. I try to tell the story of the day in a beautiful way, that generations upon generations can read. I know you’ll enjoy the photos of your big day and their value will go far beyond what you pay for them. This is why I offer packages with no limits on time or number of photos taken.

Exploring and traveling, good music, and empowering people are what inspire me. When not doing any of that I’m taking photos (obviously), enjoying coffee shop dates with Sara (my fiancé), buying an Apple product (or Tesla!) and thinking of the next adventure!

If this sounds awesome to you, there’s a good chance I’m a good fit to photograph your wedding.

I love to travel, so let's go somewhere awesome!

Adam was fantastic!

My wife first found Adam through other brides who got married in the DMV area. We were lucky enough that he was available for our wedding in October 2025. He was great!! As a person, he kept the day light and playful, bringing out the best smiles and smolders for my wife and I during our photos. Speaking of photos, they are spectacular. He captures the love, excitement, and romance of the day. We can cherish our memories of this incredible day through his beautiful photos forever!

Book Mason Photography ASAP! I cried happy tears looking at my wedding photos!

Where do I even start with my review? I would give Adam 10 stars if I could!

Our wedding day was special for a million different reasons, but working with Adam was absolutely one of them. From our very first call with in November 2024, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We knew from looking at his website and social media that we loved his style, but his enthusiasm and energy on that call made us even more excited to work with him.

We first met in person for an engagement shoot in April 2025. My partner and I were both a little nervous going into the shoot, mostly because we felt uncomfortable and unsure posing for photos, but Adam made us feel at ease immediately. We had so much fun shooting that the time flew by! And then we received the photos... WOW! We were so happy with the engagement photos that we knew the wedding day would be a breeze. I was honestly skeptical about the "need" for engagement photos, but if you're on the fence (and if it's in your budget), I would HIGHLY recommend doing them! It was huge in helping us feel comfortable with Adam and in front of the camera.

Leading up to the actual wedding day, we went back and forth a few times via email and had one final call to touch base. Adam's online form made it so easy to put together a shot list, finalize a schedule, and think of off-site locations for portraits (even though we didn't end up doing them). Because he is so organized and on top of everything, our wedding day went off without a hitch! At one point, I think we were even running ahead of schedule...

When we received the wedding photos, I honestly started to cry. The posed potraits are stunning, as are the ceremony photos, but my biggest jaw-drop moment were the candids from the reception. I don't know how to explain it, but Adam completely captured the feeling of the night. Looking at our online gallery, I feel like I'm on the dance floor at District Winery dancing with my husband and friends.

I honestly cannot thank Adam (and his second shooter Eric) enough for capturing the best day of our lives. I would get married again just to be able to work with them!

We Loved Adam Mason!!

We absolutely loved our experience with Mason Photography. We knew we vibed with Adam from our first phone call. He was so fun and professional every step of the way. He gave us many suggestions and guidance for our engagement shoot and helped us feel very comfortable. My husband and I are awkward and he cracked jokes the whole time and kept us smiling and relaxed. The photos turned out great, which made us so excited for his photos at the wedding. On the day of our wedding, Adam and his partner helped keep us organized and on track with photos prior to the actual wedding. They captured the day beautifully. The candids he took on the dance floor are my favorite photos and really show the essence of the day. We are so happy we chose Adam as our photographer and will continue to cherish these photos for the rest of our lives!

I mean...these photos are AMAZING!

The photographer was one of the vendors I was the pickiest about. I looked through so many sites and nixed all of them. Not because they weren't talented, but because they weren't the vibe I was going for. But the minute I saw Adam's site, I was like "Yep! This is my guy." And I was right. From the minute my husband and I started talking to him, we were comfortable enough to be ourselves in front of him and his camera. He caught us laughing and being our truest selves. And that's what I wanted. Candid, real and not too formal. Can he do formal, of course. And very well. But if you're looking for someone to capture the real essence of yourselves as a couple, Adam's your man. And he'll make you feel beautiful/handsome/hot while doing it. His style is amazing (both in photography and as a person haha). He goes for vibrancy and color. He tries to find the action. I couldn't be more thrilled with our photos and will be looking at these for years and years to come with pride and love. Thank you, Adam!

Can't recommend Adam enough

Adam was the first vendor we booked after we selected our venue. My (now) wife had been following Adam on Instagram for years and had him at the top of our list for possible photographers. When looking through photo galleries I fell in love with how vivid Adam’s photos are that it felt like I was there, and I knew that was the style of pictures I wanted so that whenever I look at them, I go back and relive the moment. During our initial call with Adam, he made it very clear how far he was willing to go to make our day a success. Neither of us had planned a wedding before but Adam provided advice on timelines and photobooth placement. When we did our engagement shoot, I was shy and maybe a little uncomfortable in front of the camera, but by the end of it I forgot he was there even though he was telling us what to do. We both have big families and had a long list of family photos that we wanted and about an hour to do them but Adam kept everything moving so that we were able to get through both of our full shot list. As someone who does not take a lot of pictures, having Adam’s photos, which were delivered within the timeframe he gave us, makes it easy to go back and relive those moments from our wedding. The only regret we have is we didn’t get a picture with Adam.

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

From our engagement session to the wedding day itself, Adam was truly incredible. He is easygoing, professional, and so fun to work with, making the entire process feel effortless. Not only did he capture beautiful moments, but he also went above and beyond, always attentive to our needs and making sure we were having the best experience possible. He really helped us feel comfortable and present in every moment.

And the photos...absolutely stunning! He captured every emotion, big and small, in a way that feels so natural and timeless. We are beyond grateful to have these beautiful memories to look back on, and can't recommend Adam enough!

October 2024 wedding

Adam photographed my October 2024 wedding and did a superb job. For us, photos were one of the most important investments of the wedding - as we will have them for our lifetime - and Adam did not disappoint. His photos catch real emotion and are fun and colorful. Adam himself is professional, hilarious, and feels like part of the wedding party. We will 100% hire Adam to photograph future aspects of our lives. The pictures were worth every penny and we would recommend him to all!

Everything we could have hoped for... and more!

Adam was the photographer for our wedding in Washington, DC in September 2024. Adam made the entire photography experience seamless and comfortable for the entirety of our wedding day. Adam is extraordinarily professional, and also has a knack for becoming your friend by the end of the day. He listens to your vision and does everything he can to make it happen. He anticipates wants and needs and makes a plan to accomplish them. This was such a huge weight off my shoulders. Adam is an outstanding photographer. He captured the spirit of our wedding day perfectly. We will treasure these photos forever. For any big events in the future, we will be sure to think of Adam for our photography needs.

Best wedding photographer in the DMV!!!

Best wedding photography company out there!! We were so overwhelmingly happy with our decision- Adam and team is so organized from day one through the editing process. They even gifted us a couple's cookbook when we booked with them! Photos only took 3 weeks to get back after the wedding day- and we couldn't be more happy!! They were so proactive about communication throughout the process! The editing is phenomenal and album is easily accessible for our families. We worked with Katherine- and she is the best person, photographer, and hype woman, so incredibly talented! She was sweet to meet up with us for coffee pre-wedding and helped make my dream first look surprise for my husband go off perfectly! She is a pro at capturing the documentary style photography we loved, while making us both feel so much more loose and comfortable in front of the camera. She was so good at rallying the families for photos and jumped in to help with the flow of the dinner and reception! above and beyond what we could have asked for. She was so welcoming and kind to all our families and even danced with all of us all night. She captured the most incredible exit photos with champagne too.
Overall- please choose Mason Photography for your wedding! The organization, editing, and people especially are beyond compare
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
