About

Welcome ! I am a full time professional photographer based in Baltimore. My coverage area includes MD/DE/DC/NoVA and destination weddings. My wedding services include Photography, Videography, and Live Streaming

If you are madly in love and wonderful wedding photography is important I am your man. My specialty is creating natural and timeless photos.

I will be the lead photographer for your wedding but I am usually not alone - however nothing is lost in translation. My team and I have the experience with both natural and off camera lighting to capture everything perfectly. I have 25 years of experience in photography and my second shooter Jason has 16 years experience with weddings. Dan my videographer has filmed hundreds of weddings.

All the decisions planning your wedding can be overwhelming so I keep things simple. First we get to know each other during a video consultation to see if we are a match. Then if we are I usually get to know your personality and likes and dislikes during the engagement session. Then when we plan your wedding day I will guide you to be sure everything goes smoothly. If you relax and enjoy the moment on your wedding day I will get you awesome photos.

I am an expert wedding photographer that will guide you without any heavy handed sales techniques. I am very thankful you trust me with your most important day and I won't let you down.

  • Wedding day planning to tailor your wedding photography ( this happens for every wedding)

Absolutely Incredible Experience With Dave

Where to begin?!

From the first moment that we spoke with Dave, we knew we were in good hands. Our friend had recommended Dave to us based on her wedding, and we are so glad she did.

In our intro calls, Dave made it clear to us that he is flexible around our style/preferences, and this was very true throughout every step of the process. He came and did an engagement shoot for us where he braved a hot NYC day and endless pedestrians to capture a ton of amazing shots, all with a smile on his face througout.

Leading up to the wedding, we spoke with Dave multiple times to go over the schedules, preferred photos we were looking for, etc. Where we were often frantic and anxious, Dave was calm and incredibly helpful on pointers regarding photos we may want and recommendations on capturing the day.

On our wedding day itself, Dave and his team really shined. They were prompt, professional, dealt with any twists/turns throughout the day, and most importantly - captured endless amazing photos. Dave went above and beyond to capture great angles (they were literally lying on the ground at one point to get a specific shot), get in the mix of the partying to get great action shots, and know just the right level of pushiness so that we get the photos that we dreamed of.

We could write many more paragraphs about how great Dave was, but at risk of running on too much, will just say that we are so happy we chose Dave to work with us on our big day and are confident he will be amazing for any event!

The best in the business!

Dave was absolutely fantastic to work for our wedding! During our engagement session, we became immediately comfortable with Dave and his expertise was instantly clear. Taking photos is innately awkward, but he made us feel very natural during our session. Before our wedding, we had multiple planning calls with Dave in order to create the best timeline for not only photography events, but for the entire wedding schedule of events. On the day of the wedding, Dave and Jason ensured all the events were captured from getting ready to first look and our private vows to all of the ceremony and reception. We could confidently enjoy our day while we knew Dave and Jason were documenting every detail of the wedding. They coordinated directly with the venue staff and our DJ to make sure we could spend as much time with our guests as possible. Just two days after the wedding, Dave sent us all 1,500+ edited photos from our wedding. All of the photos turned out amazing and we are so grateful for all of Dave’s hard work, flexibility, and photographic expertise. We cannot recommend Dave and his team enough to any other future wedding couples!

The absolute best!

Dave and his assistant photographer are the best. From the first day I contacted him until the day he sent the photographs, Dave was extremely cordial, knowledgeable, and professional. He took the time to address all questions and concerns that I had. He made the entire process seamless. His quality of work is superb! Our wedding photos are amazing! We absolutely made the perfect choice in hiring Dave as our photographer.

Dave was great

He set us up with a great photographer, Jason, who took great photos and did exactly what we needed. He was cheaper than some alternatives, but just as good. Definitely recommend.

Dave's Your Guy

Dave is absolutely the best! After witnessing his talent from other weddings, it was the easiest choice to have Dave do both photography and videography for our wedding. From the moment we contacted him until we had everything in our hands, Dave was highly professional, efficient, adaptable, and skilled. He responded to all communication quickly, scouted out spots at the venue pre-wedding, and went through our timeline so seamlessly that we didn't have to worry about a thing. We couldn't have been more confident in a vendor throughout this entire process, which is exactly what you want as a bride and groom. Dave took care of everything behind the scenes and adapted anything that was needed throughout. He brought a team of professionals who were just as talented and made us feel totally comfortable. And the cherry on top? We received our photos within a week and our videos within two weeks. He captured each moment so beautifully that we are having a hard time deciding what to print! Dave made any edits we wanted within a day, and they were so great that not much was even needed. If you're looking for someone to take care of your photo and video needs, Dave goes above and beyond in the most seamless manner.

10/10!!!!!

Dave was my favorite wedding vendor to work with. He was organized, professional, personable, and supportive. Dave made sure we got every picture we wanted to get on our wedding day. He held several quick meetings a few months before the wedding to create a timeline that worked for us. The pictures we have with our family are our favorite pictures, he captured the most precious candid moments that we will cherish forever. He went above and beyond for us; Dave visited the venue and church prior to the ceremony/reception to map out the perfect area to take pictures. He went at the time the events would take place to make sure he had the lighting into consideration! The wedding party, and wedding guests have said multiple times how great of a photographer he was and how he captured those very special moments. 10/10 would recommend Dave!! Dave, thank you for making our wedding day so special.

Dave is amazing!

Dave was amazing from beginning to end! He is a truly professional photographer. The quality of his photos is incredible and his eye for the perfect moment, the perfect lighting, and the perfect picture is always spot on. He is extremely thoughtful of every photo taken. His years of experience show GREATLY in the quality of photos. He takes many photos, so there were a TON of amazing options for my husband and I to choose from. He is extremely professional, very quick to respond, proactive with planning, and great to work with. He was always available for a meeting to brainstorm, go over timelines, or plan a session. I cannot recommend Dave enough, he is absolutely wonderful. We have the PERFECT wedding photos.

Beautiful photos and a calming presence

Dave was great to work with! It was clear from the start that he had a lot of experience and would be able to share tips and tricks with us - which he did! He not only gave us great support in planning our photography plan, but also with planning our wedding in general. He is also a very calm person, which is nice to have on our wedding day, and he did great with our dog, who was present for our engagement shoot and our wedding day.

My go-to ceremony live stream vendor

I have worked with Dave twice over the last two wedding seasons and he has been such a huge help my the couples I work with that are looking to live stream their ceremonies. He was always very responsive via email and offered great pricing to my couples. On wedding day he always arrives on time and offered an elevated live stream experience for the friends and family that could not be at the wedding in person. Will be recommend him to my couples anytime I can!
