About

On WeddingWire since 2024

I am a documentary wedding photographer servicing the Washington, D.C. area. I have a decade's worth of experience in photojournalism, working for local and national publications. This extensive experience has sharpened my ability to be a powerful visual storyteller, which has transferred seamlessly to my style as a wedding photographer. I tell the true story of your wedding day through the raw emotions, smiles, and little joys that make such an event memorable. If you want a raw and candid wedding collection, choose Zach Brien Photography.

I work with couples of all kinds to create lasting keepsakes for weddings and events. I will meet with you for a one-on-one consultation to discuss your wedding day timeline, your priorities, and your ideal budget. I will then create a package of services that meets your wedding needs. Zach Brien Photography offers high-resolution digital photos and a variety of printing options. Look forward to hearing from y'all!

Capture the true essence of your big day!

Zach photographed our wedding in April at Woodend Nature Sanctuary. From the initial consultation & the lead up right up to the wedding day, he was communicative, easy-going, and ensured he understood our vision for the wedding and how we wanted it captured. On the day of the wedding itself, he blended in so well with everyone. He captured candid moments that truly emulated what the day felt like. Our favorite pictures are from our dance floor where the joy of the day was tangible. Zach was happy to change up our shots and truly had a great understanding of the venue and how to highlighting its beauty. When we received our photos, we were in awe of our collection. There are hundreds of stunning photos to choose from, and narrowing them down is quite difficult, which is a good complaint! Highly recommend hiring Zach to capture the true essence of your special day!

wedding and engagement pictures

Zach did our engagement photos and wedding pics and they turned out how we envisioned. Zach created a safe and comfortable space for both my husband and I that felt like it was very intimate. Communication was awesome and i loved how the pictures turned out.

Owner/Photographer

I was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana where I got my start as a photographer. I began working for newspapers, and moved to weddings after college. I moved to Washington, D.C. in 2019 to attend graduate school at George Washington, where I got an M.A. in new media photojournalism.

My work is inspired by photographers like Andre Wagner, Harold Baquet, Debbie Flemming Caffery, Michael P. Smith, Jameel Shabazz, Gordon Parks, Joel Meyerowitz, and Dorothea Lange. Their documentary bodies of work factors heavily into my work. I look forward to hearing from you and making some wonderful pictures together!
