He had natural ease about him that put us equally at ease. He directed our movements with patience. He took us to many unique locations I would not have considered as an ideal photo spot, but every single one was incredible. My pictures came back incredibly fast. No matter what the occasion, next time I want professional pictures, I am absolutely calling on Eric again.

Eric is truly amazing at what he does. I reached out to him with a unique request. He was…read moreresponsive, I'm talking within minutes (via text and email), and very helpful. I had an idea that I wanted to come to life and he delivered just that! He helped me find a location to do my photoshoot. We were battling potential heavy rains, harsh light and high humidity on this day but he was extremely flexible with the environment and schedules. He delivers great quality photos unique to each person/ session. His turnaround time is great as well. So glad I found him as I am looking forward to including Eric and his work in more of my life's milestones.

From the moment we started our wedding planning, there was two things I knew for sure: That I…read morewanted to marry my husband, and that I wanted to have Judah Avenue as our Wedding Photographer. I was obsessed with Danni Starr's Maternity and Newborn pictures and one of my best friend's Maternity and Newborn pictures that Judah Avenue had photographed. In the early stages of planning, I was so hesitant to reach out to them, because with our wedding less than six months away, I was sure they would be booked and could NOT handle that disappointment. After searching for other photographers in the Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia area, I kept coming back to our first choice-nothing could compare to the beauty, elegance, and creativity of their photos. So I took a chance, preparing for the worse. I emailed Judah Avenue in March of 2017, for our September 2017 wedding and for the second time in my life (only second to meeting my husband), I felt like the luckiest girl in the world! THEY WERE AVAILBLE!! And not only that, buy they had also started doing Wedding videography as well! I'm telling you I was so happy I could have cried! Within the week I had spoke to Nafa (the main photographer and founder) as well as exchanged emails with Suzan and put down a deposit for both photography and videography. I cannot explain how sweet these ladies were and how extremely helpful they were during this process. As it got closer and closer to the wedding, Susan became one of the people who completely helped pull my wedding together. Going SOO above and beyond, she helped coordinate the timeline and participated in numerous conference calls with my day-of-coordinator. I am the most indecisive and ill prepare bride in the world and Susan's calmness, knowledge, professionalism, and compassion really made such a difference in the weeks before my wedding. The day before my wedding, Nafa called to relate how excited she was to photograph the wedding and asked if there were any last minute things that they could help with. After getting off the phone with her, I couldn't help but feel so blessed to how this all worked out. On the day of the wedding, Suzan emailed me her best wishes and congratulations for the day. Judah Avenue and its staff had become so much more for me then just photographers- in the weeks leading up to my wedding, they were my sanity! So the wedding day came and I was shocked to see the number of photographers and videographers and managers present to capture my wedding! We had the pleasure of working with photographers Nafa, Nii, and Joseph, with videographers Sherwyn, Kai, and Biam, and manager Nigel. While this may sound like a lot of people, I assure you, once the ceremony and reception got started, they completely blended into the crowd and still somehow capturing amazing footage! Both the photographers and videographers were so helpful in terms of posing, timelines, ideas for pictures, and suggestions throughout the night in order to get the best pictures possible. They were so fun, and kind, and flexible with our suggestions as well- we could not have asked for a better experience. My husband and his groomsmen said they best part of the wedding was taking pictures before the ceremony!! They truly made it feel like we had invited our closest friends to our wedding, who happened to have cameras and be wearing black. They were so amazing, they were even able to pull my husband and I aside during the reception for a mini sparkler session!! Judah Avenue's contract ended about an hour and a half before the actual reception ended and we were actually pretty sad to see them go! About three weeks after the wedding, Maria was in touch with us to provide us a couple (5) pictures while we waited for our sneak peak to be ready! What a tease! It was amazing to have a couple of pictures so soon and it left us just wanting more! We could already tell from the few pictures that we were going to love what was to come!! About 3 weeks later, Maria again provided us with a link to a Sneak Peak Gallery with even more pictures (nearly 150) and a 5 minute highlight video! We were so amazed with the photos and had such a fun time recollecting moments from out wedding together! We had already begun picking images that we wanted to frame around our house, but then remembered that Maria said that this wasn't even the all the final photos, and the remaining would be ready in the next couple weeks! I don't think I need to wait for those photos to leave this review. I am so, beyond words, grateful to have had Judah Avenue as my Wedding Photographer and Videographer. If you are looking for a Wedding Photographer in the Washington DC, Maryland, or Virginia area (I think they even do New York!), you would be doing a disservice to yourself not to consider Judah Avenue. Thank you so much to Nafa, Suzan, Susan, Nii, Joseph, Sherwyn, Kai, Biam, Nigel, and Maria for beyond such an irreplaceable part of my dream wedding.

I can't exactly remember how I found Liz but I don't care, I'm just glad I did!…read more We booked a studio newborn session for our first little one and the entire experience and final product was more than we could have hoped for. It started with a lovely phone call for us to get to know each other and for Liz to get to know what our goal was for the photos. In our case the studio session was the right call. Our little one had some minor issues that left our hospital discharge date in limbo but Liz was so kind and accommodating in working with us to find the best day. It was a relief because it allowed my husband to join and worked around his crazy schedule. The studio is warm and welcoming. Liz is such an easy and gentle person and it was such a pleasure to chat with her during the session. Being a nurse and having little ones herself made me feel extra safe handing over my two week old for a couple of hours. She was really receptive to our wants for the photos. They turned out absolutely adorable! I squealed when I got the final images. We got some family shots, some cutesy shots, and some detail shots as well. A perfect mix to remember our baby girl's first few weeks of life. If you're anywhere in the DMV area I encourage you to reach out to Liz. Once you chat with her for a minute I'm certain you'll book her for your maternity or baby photos. We can't wait to return for more photos as our little one grows. Thank you Liz!

We're so glad we chose her and highly recommend LVP to anyone looking for a professional and relaxed photo experience!

I've shot boudoir with him a few times and I've always been super pleased with his work. His style is distinct and has been a great addition to my portfolio. My friends have also worked with him and we have all went back for more shoots, both photos and video. That says a lot about a photographer. I've never had to wait long for the proofs to come back, it was always done over a web call where several images were already edited and I chose the ones I liked. I submitted payment, and boom, all my photos were uploaded to my dropbox! Super efficient! On top of that, I've never once felt uncomfortable around him. All that is important when you're considering working with a photographer.

We hired Kimberly in late 2017 to capture our maternity, birth and Fresh48 photos. It was my second…read morebirth and I had a good sense of what I wanted in the photos; Kimberly did not disappoint. First, Kimberly's photos are really beautiful. She has a great eye for her subject and the surrounding area. I don't usually consider myself a very photogenic person but in Kimberly's photos I feel really pleased with how I look. She is able to account for the weather and incorporate the environment. Overall the finished product that we received was just what we'd wanted and as soon as I find time between chasing a toddler and nursing an infant I plan to get a number of them printed and hung in my home. Second, she's really easy to work with. Kimberly was flexible when we had to decide on plans at the last minute due to the nature of our situation. She was really communicative and made sure she understood the types of photos and the "feel" of the photo collection we were looking for (eg, I really wanted the "story" of my birth chronicled and she did just that, including a beautiful photo montage that I could share with friends and family). I felt very at ease with her and appreciated her professionalism and knowledge. Third, she works really hard and is constantly pushing herself to improve. Ours was one of the first births she'd shot so she went out of her way to research birth photography, find a few births to shoot in advance, and check in with us about what was important to us based on what she learned. I felt really encouraged by her active engagement and participation and I was not disappointed in the result. To sum up: Kimberly is a true professional with incredible skill and an adept eye. I would recommend her in a heartbeat and look forward to hiring her in the future for our family photos.
