He must have great equipment because the camera quality was great.

Alex has an incredible eye for detail, light, and emotion -- and truly exceptional taste. Because of that, the photos never feel generic; they come out absolutely unique, refined, and full of character. If you're looking for a photographer who is professional, talented, and genuinely cares about clients and their story, Alex is absolutely the one. I wouldn't trust anyone else with capturing my most important moments. Look forward to having another unforgettable session soon. Thank you!

You'll see a…read morelot of candids, weddings, celebrities... but Matt has a soft spot for animals and I believe some of his greatest pieces are the moments he captures with people and their dogs. So much so that I have four of his black and whites up in my dining room. The first thing people notice when entering that room are the photographs. The first time I saw his work was at McLean Animal Hospital. He used to be a photographer with UPI and began working for himself. There were some postcards about the artist in the waiting room so I took one and got in touch. At the time I had a specialty retail store and I called to let him know he's welcome to display his work there. It added so much to the decor and feel of the place. Matt's a longtime local boy from Arlington whose photography has taken him around the world. If you're looking for a way to really capture something special, get in touch with him.

He certainly wasn't the cheapest but he had the most impressive body of work. We hired him for our quinceanera, and did he deliver. My daughter unfortunately takes after her mother-inlaw. She will hopefully have a successful career in radio. However Matt turned her into a cinderella and we couldn't be any happier with the photographs. Mucho Gracias hombre and stay thirsty!

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.

I found Jared's studio on Yelp. We had a family photo session with him, and I also had some…read moreindividual shots. The session turned out to be a great success. He captured beautiful moments for my family and myself. He is very patient. I had a hard time relaxing at first; however, he was extremely patient and helped me to relax as he talked me through multiple shots. The time he spent showed in the quality of the photos.

OK, you can get cheaper portraits done other places. But let me just tell you get what you pay for…read more My husband finally decided to upgrade his LinkedIn photo to something a little more professional and we chose Jared because we liked the samples on his website and we were reassured by the reviews. To say we were blown away by the quality is a complete understatement. The session was efficient, he understood exactly what my husband wanted, and we got the digital image quickly (we didn't order prints). While my husband was recognized as an expert in his field before, he is now getting recognition beyond anything he could have imagined, and his headshot is all over. I know this made a huge difference, there is no way NASA, Lufthansa and multipe others would be advertising him as a "top class" expert with a selfie or a casual shot taken with an iPhone. We were so satisfied we decided to set up a session with my son for his senior portraits. My kid is surly and hates being photographed, and mostly refuses to smile (probably shouldn't have spent thousands of dollars on braces ) Over the course of 1.5 hours Jared probably took 400 pictures, but made my son feel so at ease, he never complained, the time flew by, and he was so proud of the results. It was very difficult narrowing it down to the 8 we finally chose but he looks like an Armani model in all of them and I am serious when I tell you that is no mean feat. He is a good looking kid but hates, hates, hates this kind of stuff and how Jared managed to capture such exquisite pictures of him that really display his personality, I'll never know. Needless to say we highly recommend Jared and if you are interested in a quality headshot or photos that your family can proudly display anywhere in your home, you HAVE to book with Jared.

I moderated a panel last week and a panelist I was being introduced to said, "yes, the woman with the most amazing head shot." Yesterday morning we did our 5th(!) family mini session shoot with Stacey in a garden next to the Capitol. It's wonderful to get these beautiful shots of our children growing up -- and have some shots with me that I love that aren't selfies! Years ago Stacey took an iconic (among our family and friends) photo of my son sulking off to the left of the Washington monument when my husband and I were were standing to the right smiling while pregnant with our daughter. That same day Stacey was able to joke around with our son and get the best shots of him smiling and enjoying himself. Our daughter enjoys the shoots just as much. Thank you, Stacey!
