Annemarie Deale Photography

Annemarie was wonderful to work with from start to finish of the wedding process. She has incredible talent, and was professional, detail oriented, personable and very prompt in communication and turn around. I’m so happy we had her as our wedding photographer!

Annemarie is wonderful. She has done three family photo shoots for us so far. She's always so patient (we have a dog and a baby), and the photos come out beautiful.

Annemarie is amazing - she was professional, friendly, and fun to work with during our portrait session in Georgetown, DC! We did a sunrise photoshoot and the results were outstanding. Annemarie made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and had an eye for great shots! We are so happy.

Annemarie deserves all of the praise in the world, because she is truly the best vendor you could hope for. It goes without saying that we first wanted to hire Annemarie when we saw her stunning photographs--she is incredibly talented and has a true eye for beauty. However, with Annemarie you get so much more than that. The short version: if you want a photographer who goes above and beyond and is extremely talented, professional, responsive, helpful, reliable, kind, and accommodating, you absolutely need to hire her. The detailed version: We first met Annemarie when we did our engagement shoot, exactly a year before our wedding. The shoot was a wonderful experience thanks to her--she had so many creative ideas of where to get the perfect pictures, she gave clear directions that made us feel comfortable and at ease, and in between pictures she was wonderful and lovely to talk to. She never made us feel rushed, and even went to a second location with us to shoot more pictures. She sent us an entire gallery full of gorgeous pictures within a few weeks. As our wedding approached, she reached out consistently to check up on us, and created a detailed timeline and shot list for our day--following up and responding at any and all times with extremely useful suggestions. One day, our coordinator scheduled a very last minute venue walk-through which was not necessary to attend; we reached out to Annemarie with absolutely no expectation of her attending (less than 24 hours notice) and she immediately responded that she would be there. At the walkthrough, she again provided us with so much wonderful advice and helpful suggestions, and scoped out the entire venue with me to get ideas of where she would take pictures. On the day of our wedding, she made the day run seamlessly--providing guidance and making sure everyone is in the correct place and sticking to the schedule. She has a very calming presence, which is super useful on such a hectic day full of activities. She also brought an assistant and a second shooter with her--the three made a wonderful team that captured every important moment. Truly, the day was flawless because of them. I realized suddenly that I really wanted to extend Annemarie's time with us at the wedding, and was panicked because I hadn't thought to extend the contract. I pulled her aside and she immediately reassured me that she would stay and not to worry. Our wedding ended Saturday at midnight--we had a beautiful preview of our photographs by Monday morning, and our full gallery a few weeks later. We would recommend Annemarie to absolutely anyone getting married--you need the best vendors for your most important day (and arguably, photographers are one of the most important vendors), and she's simply the best.

Timely, professional and accommodating. Annemarie delivered on everything we asked for. She even knew how to “still” the wind that day! Great photos!

Annemarie was a pleasure to work with. She met with me virtually before the event and expressed enthusiasm at covering this special occasion. Her demeanor is relaxed and engaged, and on the day of she gave us tips on how to look our best in the shots and took candids as well. We loved the final result - natural expressions of the joy that we shared that day, and intimate portraits. She sent us a print free of charge, one of our favorites, which we have framed. I highly recommend her services, she's professional, personable and talented. Thanks Annemarie!

We absolutely loved working with Annemarie and we’re so lucky to have her as our wedding photographer! We did a small, outdoor ceremony with just our immediate family and she captured every element of the day that we were hoping for! Her communication prior to the big day was perfect and extremely helpful. We were able to work through exactly what we were wanting and which pictures were must-have’s for us. On the day of the wedding, Annemarie arrived early to capture all the small details and getting ready pictures. We also had first looks, family pictures, couple’s portraits, and even a few pictures with our dog! She directed us all so well, which was so helpful as we and our families are a bit camera shy! Her attention to detail was great and she always had helpful tips for hand placement, and posing! We got our preview pictures within no time and the full wedding day album well within the timeline mentioned in the contract! She did a fantastic job with editing and kept everything very subtle, which we loved, just enough to enhance the pictures! And any specific retouching we requested she was able to accommodate easily! Overall, we could not be more pleased with Annemarie! She was an absolute joy to work with and we felt so comfortable having her with us on our wedding day!

Annemarie was absolutely AMAZING. She was warm, kind, made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera, and perfectly captured our personalities and emotions. Her vision is beautiful. That is everything I could want in a photographer. Our final gallery is absolutely gorgeous, and I will cherish these photos forever; thank you for the memories!

Annemarie was a pleasure to work with and she captured our family beautifully. Working with 5 kids, let alone 3 toddlers, is not easy. She was prompt, communicated well and had a good turn around. Forever grateful for these photos.

Annemarie is a delight to work with. She is very professional and has a great eye for capturing a perfect photo. My boyfriend and I have worked with her a few times and every encounter was always pleasant. We were very happy with our photos and her attention to detail. Keep being great! :-)

I love Anne Marie’s work as the way to poses my husband and I was in a very poetic and romantic ways. Anne Marie was very patients and gave easy and simple directions. The photos she took exceeded my expectations. Our shoot was suppose to be with cherry blossom blooming in DC, but we had ZERO due to the storm. Instead we had mist all around us! Anne Marie showed up to the session with positivity and photographed us beautifully with mystical mist that made our photos looks even more poetic!
