About this vendor

At NorthStar Captures, a wedding and events photography business based in Maryland (DMV), we specialize in storytelling through timeless wedding photography that feels personal, authentic, and true to each couple we work with. Owned and operated by twin brothers Kaleb and Eyasu, we bring a unique blend of creativity, calm energy, and cultural awareness to every celebration we document.

Based in Maryland and the greater DMV area, and available for travel across the U.S., we’re known for capturing the real moments — from joyful tears to spontaneous laughter — with a documentary-meets-artistic style that never feels forced. Our approach is simple: connect with each couple, understand their vision, and create an experience that feels effortless from beginning to end.

Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement or a large cultural celebration, we tailor every shoot to reflect your love story in the most honest and beautiful way possible. From detailed getting-ready shots to golden hour portraits, we make sure every moment is preserved with intention and care.

Couples choose NorthStar Captures not just for the photos but for how we make them feel throughout the process — relaxed, confident, and truly seen.

Captured Our Day Perfectly

We had such a great experience working with Kaleb. He was professional, calm, and really knew how to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera (which isn’t easy!). He blended into the day so well that we barely noticed the camera at times but the photos he delivered were everything we wanted and more. Super grateful for his work and would definitely recommend him to other couples.

Great Experience — Beautiful Photos

Kaleb was super easy to work with and made the whole photography process stress-free. He showed up on time, gave helpful direction without being pushy, and honestly felt more like a friend than a vendor. The photos turned out amazing, natural, vibrant, and captured all the emotions of the day. He even caught a few candid moments we would’ve totally missed. Pricing was fair, and turnaround time was faster than expected. We’re really happy we went with NorthStar Captures!
