Our photographer ” Joey” in terms of professionalism was a great match for my husband and myself. His personality was amiable and kind. When the interview came he was very organized with his work and time management. Joey blended in seamlessly not taking away the attention from the bride and groom. In terms of value, the wedding photos are clear. Our unforgettable day was captured.Trans4mation Photography's reply:
Thank you Mikaela and Luke for your kind review. Your wedding was a beautiful day and thank you for asking me to be your wedding photographer. -

Devan Sent on 12/27/2023Flawless!
My husband and I are absolutely blown away by Joey’s work. He made our wedding the event of the year and managed to capture every special moment! As the bride, there are a lot of wedding details to manage; Joey flawlessly went above and beyond in every way. Managing the bridal party/families, coordinating with the vendors AND venue, all while making sure the our expectations were met, Joey did it all and more! No words will ever fully express how grateful I am for Joey and how incredible he was before, during, and after our wedding. Trans4mation Photography has my highest recommendation! -

Elizabeth Sent on 12/14/2023Joey was excellent!
Joey was fantastic. He shot our wedding on April 29th, 2023 and the experience was wonderful. Not only did Joey capture the day beautifully, but he was flexible, kind, professional and knew how to keep the pictures moving so we could capture every shot we wanted. He was also wonderful throughout the entire photography process from booking all the way through to mailing us the USB with our photos. I absolutely adore all of his pictures and am so thankful we hired him for our special event! -

Jillian Sent on 10/23/2022Most beautiful photos
I was spot ON in choosing Joey as our wedding photographer! He did an amazing job, not only on our engagement photos, but more importantly on our wedding day! Photos turned out better than we could have imagined. Joey and Desirae made everyone feel at ease, capturing the happiness of the bride and groom, guests enjoying themselves, the joy & love of the day. They were both so good at capturing all the wonderful, beautiful memories of our wedding day! After seeing a glimpse of wedding day photos, comments include STUNNING, magazine cover, magical, beautiful…We can’t thank you enough, Joey and Desirae! -

Shannon Sent on 08/02/2022Mckenney wedding
Words cannot express how amazing Joey was for us! Joey has the best personality and he makes everything run so smoothly. One of my biggest concerns was trying to find pictures for us to go by but Joey said to leave it in his hands and anything we wanted done we could do but not to feel obligated to send him anything and he did exactly that! We honestly could not have chosen a better photographer and videographer. We had our photos back 2 weeks after the wedding and we ordered our album shortly after. We got our highlight reel a few days ago and absolutely LOVE IT, if the highlight reel is that good I cannot wait to see how amazing the full video is. I cried twice watching the highlight reel. I really cannot express how comfortable Joey made us feel and how quick he was to communicate with us. I HIGHLY recommend Joey as your photographer and videographer. -
![Melody]()
Melody Sent on 07/23/2022BEST Wedding Decision We Made!!!
From my first meeting with Joey, he was very friendly and outgoing which I felt was a perfect match. When it came to the wedding day (5/14/22), Joey arrived promptly and was very open to my own ideas as the bride. He matched my energy and was understanding of my preferences. Joey made me, my husband, and our bridal party feel comfortable and guided us so that the pictures looked very natural. The second photographer, Christina, was equally as professional and caught wonderful moments from different angles. 10/10 would hire Joey again and again. -

Julie Sent on 07/04/2022Wonderful experience working with Joey and beautiful photos!!
My Husband Erik and I were recently married at the newly renovated Kent Island Resort in Stevensville, MD on June 10th and Joey was our photographer.
He was beyond amazing to work with, fun, interactive, and takes the most beautiful photos!
We highly recommend him to anyone getting married or who needs a photographer for a special event! I can’t stop looking at our sneak peak of photos he took since they are just breathtaking. ❤️ -

![Kristina]()
Kristina Sent on 07/01/202210 out of 10 Recommend!!!
I would 10/10 recommend Joey with Trans4mation Photography for your wedding!!! Working with him was easy-going and stress-free from start to finish. We just got our photos back from our wedding (extremely fast turn-around time) and they are all so fantastic! The hardest thing I had to do was select only our top 75 favorites for further editing enhancements (as per our package) because all of the pictures are so amazing! There should be more to your wedding photographer team than just the photos, and Joey and his team are the full package. They are friendly, organized, on-time, experienced, professional, creative, and great communicators, whether that meant reaching out to me throughout the planning process, talking to parents and guests, getting all 23 people in our bridal party to pay attention for photos, and he kept the mood light and fun while we shot our way through series after series of family portraits. His second shooter for the day, Desiree was also amazing! We are so glad we chose Joey and Trans4mation Photography to document our special day.Trans4mation Photography's reply:
Kristina and Roni, thank you both for trusting me with the very important task of being your wedding photographer! It was truly my honor to serve you both, capture awesome memories, and create an incredible experience for both of you. From the moment we met (at another wedding-related event), we clicked and I knew it was going to be a wonderful experience. From the engagement session all the way through the incredible (and large!) wedding you had at Clifton Mansion, it was nothing less than fun and enjoyable! Thanks for your kind words and I wish you both all the best! Stay in touch! -

Joey did an absolutely amazing job photographing our wedding! He made everything so laid back, fun and easy! All of our guests even made comments to us about his professionalism and how great he was! 11/10 would highly recommend!Trans4mation Photography's reply:
Kayla (and Matt), thank you both so much for asking me to take part in your beautiful wedding at Celebrations on the water. What a perfect day it was!

I can't recommend Joey and Trans4mation Photography enough! Joey was very organized, prepared, professional, and easy to work with throughout the planning process and the day of our wedding. It rained our entire wedding day and he took all the stress out of organizing a backup plan. He was full of ideas for beautiful wedding shots despite the rain, and even had enough umbrellas for our entire wedding party. We are in love with the photos he captured!Trans4mation Photography's reply:
Beth and Jon, thank you again so much for asking me to capture your special day! Beth, you looked absolutely stunning, and Jon wasn't so bad either! LOL. Seriously, grateful for your super sweet compliments and I am so glad you enjoyed both the process, the relationship, and ultimately, the results! Blessings to both of you and please stay in touch!

![Rebecca]()
Rebecca Sent on 10/27/2021Say YES to this Photographer!!
My husband and I cannot sing enough praises when it comes to Joey, his work, and his team. We met with Joey in 2019 to secure him for Oct 2020 nuptials. He was warm, welcoming and just an absolute joy to be around. You can feel his positive energy and it truly reflects in his photographs. We secured 2 photographers (Joey & a 2nd shooter) for 8 hours and a videographer for 6 hours and we planned to have an engagement session in the spring. Unfortunately, covid hit and put a wrench in our plans. Joey worked with us to coordinate a Mr. & Mrs. photoshoot (in lieu of our engagement session) after our covid elopement and we reset our reception to 10/09/21. After learning the timeline of events for our actual reception, Joey recommended adding an extra hour of videographer so that we could capture cake cutting. Joey was everything we expected AND MORE. His energy was infectious and his team was equally as down to earth as he was. We had the pleasure of working with Christy (2nd shooter) and James (videographer). Many of my bridesmaid commented on how they've been in many other weddings and the photographers can be really aggressive and they were so amazed by Joey and his team. They were like flies on the wall. We barely noticed them and they captured amazing candid moments. We are so glad these memories can be memorialized in his photojournalistic approach. We loved working with him and highly recommend him! If anything, I would have actually added an additional hour for photography because he is THAT good! Who wouldn't want MORE gorgeous photos? If you plan to have more than 50-60 people, I also strongly suggest a 2nd shooter. You will love Trans4mation Photography -- it is your one stop shop for photo & video!Trans4mation Photography's reply:
Rebecca and Patrick, thank you would be an understatement for the sweet and overly gracious comments you've made. I honestly don't think I'm all those things you say, but I super appreciate it and it is your type of experience that motivates me and inspires me to work even harder for my sweet couples! On behalf of myself, Christy, and James, we sincerely are grateful that you asked us to be part of your epic day! Blessing to both of you!

Lauren Sent on 07/30/2021More than Five Stars!
If we could give Joey and Trans4mation more than five stars we absolutely would. Beyond his amazing photography, he is just an all around great guy who truly cares about his customers. He will work with you to get you the shots that you want, and is really creative with his photography to get absolutely beautiful shots. We got so many compliments on our photos. I couldn't recommend him enough as a wedding photographer or for any session. Thank you Trans4mation Photography!
Trans4mation Photography's reply:
Lauren, it truly was a pleasure to serve you and Justin and create amazing photos together at St. Mary's Church in Annapolis. Although it is always a pleasure to serve my couples, it was especially true considering that you and Justin both recently graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy and are currently serving our country. For this, I am eternally grateful to you!
I wish you all the blessings and pray for your safety! -

Ariana Sent on 06/02/2021Our best day captured!
My mom and I met Joey at a wedding expo a little less than two years before the planned wedding date. He was so nice and he sold us right away with his personality and his work. When it came time to introduce him to my now husband, we met at a Panera and sat and chatted with him for probably two hours! Joey offered so many resources to prepare us for the big day. By the end of our meet up, we had booked Trans4mation photography and were super excited. Joey was flexible with us when scheduling our engagement shoot and he was knowledgeable when it came to suggesting ideas for where they were to take place. We decided on Federal Hill and we are so glad. The photos were BEAUTIFUL! Joey posed us and we felt pretty comfortable considering neither of us knew what to do. Fast forward to our wedding, Joey and his photography partner Orsolya were fantastic! They were prepared, professional, kind, creative, and worked well together. They were also great conversationalists with our friends and families. We’ve gotten so many stories from guests about the two of them and how they were connecting with everyone. We are currently waiting on our final photos, but Joey’s turnaround time on our sneak peek photos and blog on his website was super quick! The photos are stunning and we are so excited to see the rest, and cherish them for our lifetime! Thank you Trans4formation photography, we are forever grateful!Trans4mation Photography's reply:
Ariana, it was such a pleasure to serve you and Alex on your wedding day. Your compliments and sweet words are super appreciated! Every time I interacted with you on the phone, video, text, or in person at the engagement session (remember the medical tags you wore at Federal Hill? Ha!) or at your wedding, I smiled all the way through seeing how happy you were and how easy it was to work with you. Relaxed, chill, easy-going - my kind of couple! And not to mention, you looked absolutely AH-MAY-ZING on your wedding day! Thanks again for asking me to be your wedding photographer! Many blessings to you!

![Hayley]()
Hayley Sent on 05/25/2021Absolutely beautiful!
Joey was the first vendor we met with when we were planning our July 2020 wedding. From that first meeting, my now-husband and I knew he was the right choice to capture our wedding. He gave us all of the information we would need to make sure our wedding was completely covered. We discussed styles, must-have photos, timelines and products from the beginning. We met with him for engagement pictures shortly thereafter, and we loved the images he captured. My husband notoriously hates having his picture taken and our photos are so natural! In the spring of 2020, along with so many couples, we were faced with the unbelievable scenario of a worldwide pandemic. As we ultimately decided to postpone our wedding, I was worried our vendors would have prior obligations and I told my family “our photographer is the only vendor I really care about”. Joey worked with us to quickly sign a new contract and thankfully he was available to cover our new date in April. As that date approached, our father in law began to lose his battle with cancer, ultimately passing away just 6 days before our wedding. Joey and Desire were so supportive, sensitive and understanding as we navigated both events simultaneously. They worked with my blended family, our grieving family, a stubborn toddler and what could have been a rainy April day (that ultimately turned into a beautiful day). Our photos are absolutely gorgeous and I will cherish them forever. Quickly after our ceremony we got a sneak peak blog with photos that told the story of our day. He even captured the picture we would ultimately use to announce our pregnancy. His professionalism and organization is unmatched, but neither compare to his ability to capture beautiful photos to remember your special day!Trans4mation Photography's reply:
Hayley (and Chris),
I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your sweet and kind words! I was truly privileged to walk alongside of you both as together we navigated through the difficult 2020 year and, as you said, the last minute emotional roller-coaster that you all had to go through. When I promised you that a good wedding photographer isn't just someone behind an expensive camera, but rather someone who can be flexible, personable, and customer-centric, and of course creative and artistic with his craft, I meant what I said when I told you I am that photographer. Integrity, right? It is all about providing an amazing experience, from beginning to the end. And oh, yes, stunning photos do the trick too! Ha! 😊
I pray God's blessings on your life together especially as you plan ahead for starting a family! Congratulations again and let's be sure to stay in touch!

Olivia Sent on 05/19/2021Top quality, impressive turnaround, genuine, outstanding.
I can’t recommend Joey enough, he deserves more than 5 stars!!
From the moment I first had interest in his work, he reached out & was very professional, detailed & organized. We had our first interaction through a video call due to the pandemic, Joey walked us through every aspect of what we would expect from him. To be honest it was a lot of information more than I knew went into photography, and in that exact moment I knew he would be the ONLY one to do the job. Joey captured our engagement photos, which turned out amazing and we were truly able to appreciate how amazing he is at his work. Joey and his team were outstanding day of, everyone was professional. Joey was able to keep our rowdy bridal party in check and stay true to our timeline, this made things go smoothly.
Our second main reason for hiring Joey is his turnaround time. Truly is impressive!! Organized even down to how the images are presented. I was blown away by how great he captured our guests, everyone at our wedding was complimenting us on how amazing of a photographer he was & how great it was that he was capturing the guests as well.
Joey is dedicated to giving you the best service, we truly recommend him & his team for your next event.Trans4mation Photography's reply:
Olivia, all I can say is wow!! Thank you so much for your sweet compliments and for trusting me with such an important choice on an important day in your life.
Like all my clients, I know you have other options, but I am so glad you selected me to do your wedding, and you've finally discovered that a good wedding photographer isn't just good photos, but an overall incredible experience.
It was a delight to work with you, Greg, your friends and family. As you know, one of your friends is now talking to me about doing her wedding! Blessings to both of you! -
