We highly recommend Spence Photographics to anyone looking for a photographer. We were in awe when we received our beautiful wedding photos, and so many people have told us that they are among the most beautiful wedding photos they have EVER seen! We agree! We thought the price was very reasonable and David was SUCH a pleasure to work with--very personable, go-with-the-flow, and professional. So happy to have had Spence Photographics capture our big day!

We chose Spence Photographics for our September 2021 wedding and are totally blown away by the pictures we got!! We can’t recommend David highly enough. He was wonderful to work with – warm, down to earth, and clearly passionate about his craft. He captured so many special moments throughout the day that we’re having a really hard time choosing our favorites! We really appreciated the super speedy, helpful communication from Molly in the months leading up to the event and were impressed by how quickly we got a sneak peek of the day.

We also booked the open-air Silly Station photo booth – our guests loved it!! It was a really fun addition to the event and a lovely keepsake for guests – the booth prints two photo strips for each take, and there’s an online gallery with all the photos.

As two people who hate to have our photos taken or be at the center of attention, David was fantastic at putting us at ease and making the experience an enjoyable one. His pictures are absolutely beautiful and he was so easy to work with. We just received our first preview photos from our wedding and we cant stop raving about them. David and his wife Molly were both extremely professional and responsive, helping us at every step of the process and making this camera shy couple excited to be in front of the camera.

Spence photography did our engagement and wedding photos and we also used their photo booth for our wedding. We cannot stress how much we loved the photos and how much fun it was to work with them. My husband and I are not the biggest fans of taking pictures but they put us at ease and we had a great time doing it. They are there to help and capture the day perfectly. Get the photo booth! The guests loved it! Also their presentation of everything from the sneak peaks to the end products of the wedding are amazing. We will definitely be using them again in the future!

11 years ago, David of Spence Photographics produced amazing photos of our eldest daughter's wedding. Since then, he has captured exquisite family portraits and most recently our youngest daughter's wedding. On each occasion the results have been beyond what we ever expected! Professional, easy to work with and an eye for just the right photo to either bring a smile or a tear. Exceptional!

David and Molly (business manager) have been absolutely wonderful to work with. We knew that we wanted a photographer who has a lot of experience with outdoor photography, given the unique challenges that presents, and we are so glad that we chose David. Both David and Molly were very responsive, accommodating, and flexible, especially as we kept having to change our plans for the ceremony and reception due to Covid restrictions. David even drove down to DC to do our engagement photo shoot for us at a location that he hadn’t shot at previously, and was able to come up with great shot recommendations on the fly. At both the engagement and wedding shoots, he had a lot of really creative ideas and was clear and kind in giving directions, which made taking the photos easy.

David is very approachable and down to earth and we felt comfortable with him as soon as we met him, which made our photos look very natural. Cannot recommend them enough!

David (and his assistant photographer as well as his wife Molly) worked really hard on our daughter and son-in-law's wedding day which was 10/5/19 at Springfield Manor. He and his team spent the day photographing the bridal party, the families, and then navigating the big crowd (200 guests) and capturing all the fun and special moments at the reception. Based on the "Sneak Peek" pics we received the day after the wedding, we are sure the rest of the photos are going to be amazing. Our daughter and son-in-law are thrilled with the initial photos. The colors in the photos really captured the people, outfits, surroundings, and flowers so beautifully! We can't wait to see the rest of the photos. David was also very patient and personable which made everyone he was photographing relax.

David and Molly were amazing! We loved working with them and they made both my fiance and I very comfortable and at ease while getting our picture taken. We used the pictures they took for our save the dates as well as our thank you/ holiday cards. Our engagement and wedding photos came out beautiful and we look forward to looking at them for years to come! We also used their photo booth as well and it was a perfect addition to our reception! Everyone had a great time taking photos and it made our wedding so fun! We are so happy we went with them, they were our favorite vendor from our wedding day and we cannot recommend them enough!

We used Spence Photographics for our July wedding at Thorpewood in Thurmont MD, and they did an absolutely fantastic job! We met Molly at a Thorpewood open house and we were really impressed by the beautiful photography examples and the carefully crafted albums and keepsake boxes they had on display. We set up a meeting with her husband Dave at their studio in downtown Frederick, and he patiently answered all of our questions. It was obvious that he was very familiar with our wedding venue and its most beautiful spots. Setting up an engagement session was easy. They were very flexible with dates, and Dave was willing to meet us in a place of our choosing, even if it was a bit of a drive from Frederick. We hadn't originally thought to do an engagement session, but it was included in our package, and was a really good opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera, especially since I tend to be camera shy. Throughout the process I communicated with Molly for scheduling and logistics. She was great, always very prompt to respond and easy to get ahold of. They also made it very easy to pay online, which was hugely convenient and very much appreciated. The day of the wedding Dave did a wonderful job capturing some really great moments. He was familiar with the venue, and the venue with him, which helped the day go smooth as clockwork. He had so much energy! We received a preview of images the week after the wedding (very exciting), and a full set of digital photographs a couple of weeks later. Later we received our beautiful keepsake box with select prints. From the sun dappled photos of my husband and I to the awesome action shots of our guests dancing, I am really going to cherish these images. To sum up, Molly and Dave were a pleasure to work with. They really paid attention to the little details. They were always friendly, kind, and fun to work with. We whole heartedly recommend them.

David and Molly were so wonderful to work with for our wedding this past August (2018). We were engaged for a long time and they keep in touch from the time we booked them for almost 2 years. They are super friendly and respond quickly with questions. Our photos turned out beautiful from both our engagement session and wedding day. He captured all the moments so well and we are so happy we got the opportunity to work with them!
