My name is Tiffany and I am a Maryland based photographer, graphic designer and artist. My interest in photography began in college while I studied graphic design. I was introduced to the inner workings of the camera. When I continued my studies into film and animation, I expanded my knowledge with artistic angles and lighting techniques. I first began photographing weddings in 2016 and thoroughly enjoyed capturing genuine, candid moments behind the lens. Later on, I explored newborn photography, working in hospitals local to the DMV while, time to time, taking on special events beyond wedding photography.

Monique S. says, "Paul and the rest of the P&G PhotoShoot Plus team were a dream to work with for my daughter’s wedding. Although I am not a professional photographer and I am my family’s primary photographer and documenter. Since this was such a special occasion, I wanted to enjoy the day but I still needed to make sure the day was captured and documented. They organize a photoshoot agenda, use their professional eye for taking the best poses/angles, and delivered impeccable quality images. Paul and his team paid attention to the details, what was important to me, and delivered results that exceeded my expectations. This was the perfect experience!" Read more

Your Wedding Photography questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Fash.

How much are wedding photographer prices near me?

Wedding photography costs $1,600 to $3,600 on average but often exceeds $4,000 in major cities. Wedding photography prices range from $700 to $10,000, depending on the package, add-ons, location, and number of photographers.

When to book your wedding photographer?

Book your wedding photographer as early as possible, ideally as soon as you choose a date and reserve a venue. The best photographers book events more than 12 months in advance, especially for weddings during the peak season.

What to expect from your wedding photographer?

Before the wedding day

  • Discussion of the photographic style and your needs and wants
  • Contract and initial payment to reserve the date
  • Reviewing the wedding day timeline to ensure you schedule enough time for key photos
  • Engagement photo shoot, if included
  • Rehearsal dinner coverage, if included

On your wedding day

  • Capturing key moments during the getting-ready process, ceremony, and reception
  • Traditional or posed photos of the wedding couple, bridal party, and family
  • Photos of candid moments throughout the event

After the wedding

  • Photo editing and retouching
  • Delivery of proofs, typically via a private online gallery
  • Assistance with photo selection and album design
  • Delivery of prints or an album, if included

How much should you tip a wedding photographer?

Tipping a wedding photographer is not required but is usually appreciated. Consider tipping $50 to $200 to express your gratitude if the photographer exceeds your expectations.

How much do wedding photographers make?

Wedding photographers make $40,000 to $60,000 per year on average, depending on their experience and location.

How do I find wedding photographers near me?

Start by searching our list of wedding photographers, then compare reviews and costs. After finding and contacting potential services:

  • Decide which photography style and aesthetic best suits your wedding.
  • Ask for referrals from friends, family, your wedding planner, the venue, and other wedding vendors.
  • Read their reviews on Fash and Google.
  • Choose a pro who specializes in wedding photography.
  • Interview your favorite photographers and discuss your ideas and vision.
  • Ask the photographer about their pre-wedding, wedding day, and post-wedding process.
  • Schedule an engagement photo shoot to allow you to work with the photographer before the wedding day.
  • Get a detailed contract in writing that breaks down everything included in your package, the payment plan, and the refund and cancellation policy.
  • Discuss the photo usage and printing rights to confirm how you and the photographer can use the images. Photographers typically retain the copyright to the images, giving them the right to use the photos for marketing and social media.
  • Beware of basing the decision solely on pricing. The photographer with the lowest price may lack experience or isn't as good as local competitors.

After asking questions and verifying their credentials, hire the photographer in your area.

What questions to ask wedding photographers?

Ask them the following questions when hiring a wedding photographer:

  • How would you describe your photography style and approach?
  • Can we see full galleries from a few recent weddings?
  • How many weddings have you photographed?
  • Do you have our wedding date available?
  • How far in advance do we need to book with you?
  • Have you ever shot a wedding at our venue before?

  • Can we discuss unique shots we'd like?
  • How much extra do you charge for an engagement shoot or rehearsal dinner coverage?
  • Do you provide retouching, color adjustment, or other editing services? Do they cost extra?

Reviews for Annapolis wedding photographers

Recent success stories from people in the Annapolis area.
Latrease N.
PBSLW PHOTOGRAPHY was absolutely wonderful. Mr.Shawn is truly amazing and so professional. He exceeded our expectations and captured our love. He created visions that we were not expecting. I only had one photo of my father and it was in bad shape but Mr. Shawn edited and re-edited it until it was to my liking. He was there for our small ceremony and then again for our reception and my husband said that he would definitely hire him again. From the first time I spoke with him I wanted to hire him and he definitely did not disappoint. I don’t know what your occasion would be but he is definitely the one for the job , he listened and was so patient and understanding of my needs , he suggested things and made this experience for us one that we will always cherish. Thank you PBSLW, for all your hard work.
