    The best wedding photographer

    One of the smartest decisions we made when planning our wedding was hiring Shauna at Photography Du Jour. From our first phone call, to our big day, Shauna was just absolutely incredible paying close attention to our needs and interests but also really getting to know us as a couple. She is a genius when it comes to photography having such an eye for making her couples looks stunning on their wedding day. She made me as a bride feel so beautiful while taking the pictures and of course in the pictures themselves. She cared about our friends and family remaining so kind and remembering to include everyone creating beautiful life long memories. During our rehearsal dinner and wedding this past November, Shauna also took the time to take exceptional candid photos as well as photos of the scenery, decor, and so much more to really capture how our weekend felt through all the senses. If you are planning a wedding in the area, you MUST hire Shauna at Photography Du Jour, you won't regret it. Thank you endlessly for everything, we truly cannot thank you enough!

    Perfect Wedding Photo Experience

    We got married at the Manor at Airmont in September 2023 and our venue recommended Shauna P. We hired Shauna to shoot our wedding, and also for our engagement session!, and have only the BEST things to say. She was always great to communicate with, listened to our preferences, and got to know us as people. She shot some beautiful engagement photos for us at the US Botanic Garden- even moving a huge stop sign on the ground in order to get the shot (and yes, she put it back up after!). She kept us at ease and made everything so comfortable and natural. Our wedding day with her was FLAWLESS. Shauna operates as a professional who takes every detail seriously – yet she is never anything but friendly, kind, and a joy to be around. It’s rare to find someone who can bring such a fun energy while also executing at such a high level. She made our parents feel so cared for, and put such detail into each shot. The images she captured for us, and the way she captured them, will stay with us forever. From one Shauna to another, Shauna Ploeger is truly the best of the best – we wholeheartedly recommend her for your wedding!

    Photography Du Jour LLC's reply:

    Shauna, it is so sweet to get this review from you! I truly enjoyed every moment of your day. It really was the most joyful and heartfelt day. It was an honor to capture these moments for you and Michael! I look forward to keeping in touch and thank you again for the very kind words!

    Shauna and her team are incredible!

    I think I have gone through our wedding photos at least once a week since they were shared - cannot say enough good things about Photography Du Jour!

    Shauna and the Photography Du Jour team were incredible to work with. From our engagement photos to our wedding day, Shauna made us feel comfortable in front of the camera (not an easy feat!)

    What impressed us most was Shauna's ability to arrive at our wedding venue (a family home) for only the second time, and perfectly capture our day. Shauna and her team took care to make sure meaningful spaces were photographed, while finding opportunities to use the space in ways we hadn't thought about. Her artistic eye is spectacular and the photos reflect the elegant but welcoming feeling we wanted for our wedding day.

    Would not hesitate working with such a kind and talented team!

    Shauna turned all the photo sessions into amazing little moments during the day

    I cannot begin to describe how amazing Shauna was during our wedding day. She knew exactly what I wanted from our first conversation months ago and made it all come to life. The variety of photos we got back took my breath away, I LOVE THEM ALL! She also styled me, fixed my hair, my dress, every little detail she caught and captured the most perfect moments. I couldn’t recommend Shauna enough and am so lucky I got to work with such a talented team.

    Must have photographer

    Shauna was so sweet and nice. I just got married this past July and all the photos came out beautiful. From the detailed photos, to the candid, and everything else. Shauna was helpful in every way, even for non-photography related issues. Even helped out with my veil. Everything ran smoothly. She was the first photographer I spoke to and ended up booking her right away.
    I highly recommend Shauna.

    Amazingly talented photographer!

    Shauna was a godsend on my daughter's wedding day! Mother Nature didn't want to cooperate, but Shauna always had a smile and a plan. She was incredibly professional with an amazing talent for photography. And, we just received the most beautiful pictures that perfectly capture the love and joy on my daughter's wedding day! I highly recommend Shauna for any photography needs!

    Incredible!!

    We could not have been happier with our experience with Shauna. We loved our pictures from the wedding day itself and engagement pictures. Shauna made everyone feel so comfortable. She was kind, professional, fun and overall could not recommend more.

    NYE Dream Wedding: Fun Photographer who captured the day PERFECTLY


    I just received my wedding photos, 8 weeks after my wedding, and I can’t even begin to tell you -- go hire Shauna (Du Jour Photography) right now!!! I knew the final product would be great from the 70 photos she sent immediately (the DAY after the wedding! incredible!) but it was amazing to see the final product.
    From the very beginning, she was so amazing to work with. We had a zoom call to talk about my expectations for the day, and looking at the final catalog, she absolutely nailed it. She was professional through and through, put my husband and me at ease, and handled our large family with efficiency and FUN! You spend a LOT of time with your photographer on the wedding day (and we had her for our welcome party, too) so you really need to like her. And Shauna is impossible not to like! I’m so happy that we found her (referred by a friend) and that my day was captured so incredibly beautifully. Thank you, Shauna!!!!

    The best photographer in the state!

    We had the absolute pleasure of working with Shauna over the past year and were lucky enough to have her cover our engagement photo session, rehearsal dinner, and wedding. On top of being incredibly professional, she is one of the sweetest people ever! Her eye for details and lighting is absolutely spectacular, and she really took the time to understand our vision for the day. Her timeline and professionalism helped us to stay on track with photos during the day -- she was a very calming presence during our first look, and was able to perfectly capture all of our special moments. She also worked with our wedding coordinator, venue, and other vendors to make sure everything was perfect for the wedding day.
    We cannot recommend Shauna enough -- if you have the opportunity to work with her, you definitely won't regret it! She will capture beautiful memories to last a lifetime!

    Stunning photos to cherish for a lifetime!

    Shauna is EXCELLENT! From our first email after inquiring with Photography Du Jour, to our wedding day - Shauna was professional, friendly, responsive, and so knowledgeable. You can tell she loves what she does!
    On our wedding day, she was quick and efficient (which is appreciated on an already hectic day!) and she was an expert at posing us so that we did not feel awkward. Our photos are phenomenal and we could not be happier with our choice to work with Shauna for our wedding! We will cherish our wedding photos forever. You will not regret booking!
    THANK YOU, Shauna!

    Must have photography team!

    My husband and I got married this past October and had the pleasure of both Crystal and Blake photographing our wedding. I was initially drawn to the classic yet modern elements in their portfolios and knew they would capture photos that would be timeless. I did my initial meeting with Shauna and she exceeded my expectations with how thorough and thoughtful she was with everything. She brought up things for our wedding day I hadn’t even thought of and all of her recommendations helped the day go so smoothly. My husband and I are both active duty military and we took advantage of the free mini engagement shoot with Crystal. Neither of us had a lot of experience with professional photography but she made the experience so enjoyable and really made us excited for taking photos the day of our wedding. The day of the wedding Crystal and Blake were really great keeping us on schedule while still allowing the day to flow organically. They worked really well together and their stylistic differences gave us an amazing portfolio of both candid and posed shots. We are so grateful we had the whole team at Photography Du Jour play a part of our wedding day. The pictures turned out absolutely incredible and I can’t recommend them enough!

    Photography Du Jour was PERFECT! 10/10

    I wish I could give 10 stars for Photography Du Jour! Shauna and her team were absolutely AMAZING at our September wedding. I first saw her at my friends wedding a few years ago and fell in love with their photos and how she captured their day. Shauna truly went above and beyond, recreated the most ideal timeline for sunset/evening photos, kept us at ease, all while making us laugh so we'd enjoy the day even more. Our photos were just incredible.. so incredible that best friend who was in my wedding hired her after! Thank you Photography Du Jour for capturing the beauty of our day :)

    Best decision was hiring Shauna!

    Shauna took photos for our engagement, rehearsal dinner, and wedding and hiring her was the best decision we could have made! Taking photos isn't typically my husband's favorite thing but Shauna made it fun, short, and still captured every single moment and more than we could have ever wished for. We could be ourselves around Shauna and Blake so our photos look natural and capture the best versions of ourselves. We highly recommend Shauna, Blake, and her amazing team!

    Gorgeous Photos!

    We had Shauna as the photographer for our wedding and could not be happier with our photos! Shauna has an amazingly artistic eye for photography. She’s a joy to work with and goes out of her way to create outstanding images. Our wedding was the third time we have worked with Shauna. We highly recommend her to anyone who needs a photographer. We will certainly be using her again in the future.

    Look no further than Shauna!!

    We absolutely loved having Shauna as our wedding photographer. We first met for engagement pictures and she immediately made us feel at ease with her. Not to mention they turned out amazing! For the wedding, she was quick and efficient, and offered firm direction which was just what every couple needs on their wedding day. I got some of our preview pictures and I am in love - we absolutely loved working with her and will use her for family and baby portraits to come!

    Simply the very best.

    Where do I even start? Shauna goes above and beyond… holding an umbrella for you to protect you from rain, directing the chaos that can come with family photos, adding a bobby pin or two to your hair because you’ve been dancing too hard, and making us feel so comfortable and relaxed in our photos with the right direction we needed. Our guests and family also said so many wonderful things about Shauna and how she tried to capture so many photos for them. I can’t recommend Shauna enough! She was a joy to work with and be around. Our engagement photos were beautiful and I know our wedding photos will be too.

    Absolutely perfect

    I usually don’t leave reviews but I was so blown away by Photography du Jour that I created a Wedding Wire account just so I could leave a review of Shauna. I eloped during Covid and missed out on great wedding pics. So when my dress finally came I knew I wanted to find the perfect vendor to capture what we missed. Shauna was that perfect vendor form start to finish! She set up a call with me to talk through exactly what I wanted (we even talked about my dress style and how to best shoot it). I wanted to shoot on the National Mall during peak bloom at the cherry blossoms , which is notoriously busy and stressful (but so pretty). Shauna was experienced, professional, and helped us plan the perfect shoot. During the shoot, she kept my dress and hair looking perfect even though it was 40 degrees out and SUPER windy. We make it to over 5 different spots in really short time (she was so fast!) and she had the best eye for what would look excellent in photos (locations, angles and photos). She helped us with posing so that we felt natural and looking our best, and overall just made the process so comfortable. She got sneak peaks back to us that same night and we were stunned at how beautiful the shots were taken and edited. It was a dream. Cannot recommend her highly enough!!!

    Magazine worthy gallery!!

    We could not have chosen a better photographer to capture our wedding day. We booked Shauna 3 years ago. When covid postponed our wedding 3 times, Shauna was so flexible, understanding and caring. We cannot thank Shauna enough for capturing some magazine worthy photos, as well as all the fun little moments in between. My husband and I are usually so awkward at taking pictures together but Shauna made us feel so comfortable, while also being on top of coordinating our family/group photos.

    Natural, Magazine-worthy Photos

    Shauna and her assistant Blake were amazing to work with! We shot our engagement photos with her in DC and she truly captures the most beautiful photos. We loved how the photos did not feel forced and that she thought of ways to capture our love through natural interactions. On our wedding day, her creativity continued to flow and she captured everything beautifully! I highly recommend Photography Du Jour.

    Best wedding photographer!

    I can’t say enough amazing things about Shauna! First, her pictures are STUNNING. She captured the moments perfectly, and had amazing ideas for great spots, and the candids were great. But most importantly, she is a wonderful person to work with & makes you feel soooo comfortable. She went above and beyond as our photographer. We got married during COVID, and she put us in contact with previous brides who held their wedding to answer any concerns we had, but she remained flexible and understanding if we decided to move it. The day of the wedding, she made both me and my now husband sooo at ease during pictures. I can’t say enough, just book Shauna now, you won’t regret it!

    Wedding Photos

    We are so grateful that we had Shauna as our photographer for our wedding. She is an incredibly gifted photographer who captured such beautiful images from our wedding day. She made me feel comfortable, and as someone who is notoriously awkward on camera, it was easy to listen to her direction. We absolutely love all of the shots of the wedding, reception and details that she captured. Her assistant and Shauna were both professional, easy to work with and helped pitch in at our highly altered and small wedding. She took all of the precautions to ensure we all felt comfortable during the middle of the Covid pandemic in June. My family all loved Shauna, and we would recommend her to anyone looking for sweet photos to capture your big day.

    Highly recommend!!

    Shauna was highly recommended by close friends who hired her for their wedding, and my husband and I are so happy we took their advice. Shauna was everything we could hope for in a wedding photographer and wedding vendor. She was an absolute delight to work with, very responsive and flexible and just so incredibly nice! Neither my husband or I are terribly comfortable being photographed, and she made the whole process so easy and fun -- despite the FREEZING cold weather. She thought of everything and took advantage of what was thrown at us -- in particular, the WIND, capturing some of our favorite photos with my veil flowing beautifully! Above all, our images are STUNNING. She captures all the photos you would want to remember your wedding day, but then she takes it a step further by capturing really unique and beautiful shots. We would highly recommend Photography DuJour and hope to hire Shauna again in the future!

    Shauna captured our wedding perfectly

    I could not have been more happy with selecting Shauna as the photographer at my wedding. She is incredibly talented at her craft, capturing the most intimate, authentic and beautiful moments, all the while ensuring that you look beautiful in your photos! She is also such a bright and lovely presence who went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding day was beautiful. Shauna and her assistant were a sheer pleasure to work with; their positivity radiated and immediately put everyone at ease and to actually enjoy being photographed (an oftentimes daunting experience)! Shauna listened to my inspiration for the wedding and delivered to perfection. She captured the most beautiful moments on camera, conveying the love and joy of our celebration. She was also extremely creative, orchestrating gorgeous shots that we would have never thought to put together. Shauna and her assistant even went so far as to IRON my wedding veil when they saw that it was wrinkled, and to instruct staff at our wedding venue to remove an obstacle that was blocking the aisle. To say that Shauna and her assistant went above and beyond would be a significant understatement. I absolutely adore Shauna and could not be more pleased with my experience. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend!!!

    Stunning photos to help me remember all the details of my day

    Shauna deserves a million star review! My husband and I are typically kinda awkward in our couple photos but Shauna pulled something out of us to create incredible memories for us. We did not have very many demands, and in turn, Shauna could let her creative freedom go wild. I felt like she was excited and loving everything which made us that much more comfortable in front of the camera. She gave great direction on poses and what to do. She scouted out all the areas she wanted to explore and we hit them all. Not only is her work amazing, Shauna was a great human to be around and share our day with. I still find myself staring at all the images and it helps me remember the day after it being such a blur.

    Capturing all the sparkles!

    Shauna was a joy to work with. We gave her a list of photos that didn't make her job easy and she worked with us to capture our guests in the beauty we see them. We loved the inventive engagement photos in the snow and sparkler writing at the end of the night.
