    All I have to say is...Hire this lady!

    My husband and I hired Allyson Washington to shoot our rehearsal dinner and wedding, in Baltimore, over the weekend of September 12, 2021.

    From the beginning of the planning process through to the end of the reception Ally was phenomenal. She listened to our perspective, needs, and last minute requests. She had a plethora of tips and advice to make sure our photos came out perfect. I specifically wanted her to capture the small, often overlooked, moments. As we are now reviewing the first set of photos she has released to us, she captured all these and more.

    Our wedding party was ages ~4 weeks to 70+ years and wide range of skin tones. Ally understood the challenges that come with photographing such a diverse variety of people and made the experience fun for everyone. I had several guests comment to me on how much they enjoyed her demeanor when she was photographing them.

    As a bride, this weekend was 10x more stressful that I had imagined (yes, even more intense than I assumed) and having Ally by my side was an unexpected blessing. She had such a calm and positive presence, which I greatly appreciated then and now.

    Overall, the photos Ally took are wonderful and she is a great person to boot. I will certainly hire her again if I ever need professional photos taken.

    Thank you Ally!

    Allyson felt like part of the family, in a really good way

    Allyson was amazing, from first contact to our wedding day. I can't speak highly enough of her artistic eye, her overall friendly demeanor, or her professionalism... You absolutely won't go wrong hiring her! My husband and I are not particularly photogenic, but yet we love how she made us look, without looking overly posed. She integrated into our family so well that my grandmother thought we had been friends for a long time! It really just added to the magic of the day!

    Awesome and personable photographer.

    We hired Allyson for our wedding and from the first meeting with her, we knew that she was the perfect photographer for us. I would heartily recommend her to any of my friends or family who were interested in photography services. The pictures came out perfect.

    Great to work with!

    We worked with Allyson for our engagement photos. She immediately made us feel very comfortable and gave us great suggestions for shots. Her photos were beautiful, and we especially loved her candid shots. She provided the photos to us very quickly. I would definitely recommend her!

    Allyson Washington Photography's reply:

    Aww, thank you! It was lovely meeting you two and I hope everything ended up being just right for your engagement announcement.

    Allyson was hands-down wonderful. The guests at my wedding went out of their way to share how much they enjoyed meeting her when I introduced her and how she seemed to be everywhere, capturing moments candid and planned! She was friendly, down to earth, and professional. She worked with us to capture our day as we wanted it to be done, and we couldn't be happier with how the day went and how she helped us memorialize it. We highly recommend working with her.

    I could not say enough great things about Allyson! She is patient, professional, understanding, and an excellent photographer. She is so awesome! Our wedding photos are absolutely beautiful!

    Allyson Washington Photography's reply:

    Thank you! I had such an awesome time shooting your wedding and everything was beautiful! I even teared up behind the lens when they came out with the birthday cake for your sister. That was such a lovely moment and you and Rick are lovely people.

    Allyson made us feel super comfortable and was great at directing us during our engagement photos. She looked around our house and came up with a lot of great ideas for our pictures. We received our pictures very quickly after the shoot and were stunned at how beautiful they were! We would definitely recommend Allyson Washington photography!

    Allyson did an amazing job with my graduation photos. I normally feel awkward in front of a camera but she made me feel comfortable and at ease. I will treasure them always.

    We absolutely loved the way Allyson made us feel. We were comfortable throughout the entire process; it was completely easy to work with her. She captured us in our most natural moments and created other great moments, as well. Furthermore, she was speedy and quick about showcasing the amazing shots and ensuring the fantastic pictures were available to us soon after the event. We recommend her to any and every couple looking for a professional and accomplished photographer.

    Ally was so amazing. We had talked on the phone for months leading up to my wedding, and she even emailed with my wife who was in Germany at the time. I had a million questions to ask her and she took the time to tell me exactly what needed to be done, more than once.
    On the day of our wedding she showed up and went above and beyond with her photos. We expected a few family portraits and some ceremony snaps, but we ended up with so many beautiful photos.
    She kept reminding us "you need to drink water." "Don't forget to drink water." And even stayed a little longer than we negotiated, so that my wife and I could eat some food.
    She was by far the nicest photographer we talked to, and we certainly plan on having her at many more of our life events in the future.
    10/10 would recommend for others!!!!

    I wanted a fairly unconventional shoot (a birthday gift, not wedding photos) and Allyson immediately 'got it'. She has a great eye and is easy to work with, and to get along with.

    Allyson did both our engagement session and the wedding itself, and we could not be happier. She got all the "have to" photos, and a bunch of candids of us and the people we love that we absolutely treasure.

    She is a wonderful person. The pictures that she took turned out very well. I was really thankful that she was able to help me and my family out in such a short time-frame. My only recommendation would be that she normally doesn't make contracts, but I would push for one. The reason being is so there is some type of documentation other than just email exchanges.

    Allyson Washington Photography's reply:

    Hi Jenise,

    Thanks for the review! Because it was such short notice I didn't get a chance to draw up a proper contract. I do, however, write up a contract before I take a deposit now. Just so everything is clear. But, still, it is very smart practice to push for one and, either way, it's good advice.
