I am a documentary style wedding photographer with an artistic flair. You can count on me to deliver high quality natural photos of the special moments throughout the day. I take charge to make sure we efficiently get great group photos with good lighting.
It is important to me your wedding photos look natural. I am an artist at heart but to capture the best I need your trust and confidence. Couples comment I am easy to work with. I will help you relax and enjoy your wedding day because I know what I am doing and I work efficiently and stick to our timeline. I know you want great photos but also want to enjoy the day with your friends and family.
As the lead photographer I work directly with you to plan the photography timeline and group photos. There is nothing to be lost in translation. My second shooters are full time professionals with 10+ years of experience also. Couples have given me over 95 5 star reviews on WeddingWire where I collect most of my reviews. I will do everything possible to make your day wonderful and to deliver gorgeous photos.
Your wedding day team can be from 1 or 2 photographers and if you want videography there can be 1 or 2 videographers. Contact me for more details. Ultimately I want to discuss your wedding plans to properly quote the services and pricing you need for your wedding.
** NEW - Ceremony Live Streaming ** You can still include everyone from a distance with ceremony live streaming. I offer a hollywood package that includes 3 cameras and professional audio or a Pro package with one camera angle. See my web site for more details.

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!

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 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.

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 took 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 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.

Dave is a super talented and professional photographer and we’re so happy we chose him for our wedding. Dave’s prices were by far the most reasonable and we loved his personality from our initial conversation. We chose his package that had 8 hours of coverage and video as well. From day one through the engagement photo session all the day to the wedding Dave was responsive, professional and super easy to work with. For our engagement photo session Dave gave us recommendations on locations and outfits and he did an amazing job on the photos. He even stayed extra time beyond 60 minutes to make sure we had all the shots we wanted. The engagement photos came quickly and looked amazing. About two weeks or so before the wedding our planner set up a call with us and Dave and Dave asked questions and was very engaged making sure he knew every detail of the photo timeline. Dave worked closely with us to make sure we got all the shots we wanted at our wedding. On the day of our wedding Dave showed up with his assistant photographer and videographer and they made sure we stayed on schedule and did an amazing job. We received our photos about a week and half later and we loved them! We are so happy with our decision to work with Dave and his team and we definitely recommend him to anyone looking for an awesome photographer!

Dave was excellent! His prices were very reasonable- our package included about 8 hours, 2 photographers, engagement session, and a personalized photo album. Dave works well with payment plans, and kept in touch consistently. He's quick to edit too- I had our engagement pictures next day, wedding photos only took about 3 days. I had a Spring wedding, and his editing style was perfect for the vision I had for more natural-looking photos.

We absolutely loved the photographs that we have seen by wedding photographer Dave McIntosh and we were so delighted that he was available for our wedding!
Prior to the wedding, Dave talked with us to learn our needs and to communicate to us the process of photographing the day. We learned a lot with this meeting and it gave us so much confidence that we had placed the task of taking pictures into the right hands. Dave also followed up this meeting with several communications to zero in on our preferences and to inform us of the timetable of how he would work during the day. His communication was outstanding!
On the actual day of the wedding, we were so excited but also very nervous about everything. Dave arrived early, and with his experience, he was able to offer some suggestions and he even went beyond what we expected and helped us with some last minute changes. We wanted everything to be perfect and we were worried about several things, but Dave put our mind at ease and continued to restore the calm.
What we learned from working with Dave is that it isn’t just the quality of pictures, but a good photographer will also consider telling a story and helping us with some of the unexpected things that arose. As our photographer, he helped make it a day that we will never forget.
Dave sent the digital photos to us a few days after the wedding and we could not believe what he provided to us. Our wedding took place in a dimly lit church interior, but you could see our faces and those of our family so clearly that we still don’t know how he managed this feat. We look at these pictures and cannot help to smile because he captured everything so beautifully.
We will always remember our special wedding day, and as we grow older together as a couple, Dave’s pictures will allow us to enjoy those memories time and time again. Each time we look at them, it is like we relive our wedding as he took pictures throughout the day and captured so many unique and memorable moments. Dave was the absolute best photographer and we know that he will bless many other couples with his talents!

We had our wedding at our home this past September and I found Dave through several searches on Google for an affordable photographer. Not only was he reasonably priced, he did an amazing job capturing so many special moments on our big day. He was very efficient and professional the whole time he was with us. And he managed to get our photos back to us almost immediately after the wedding. They looked just as magical as our day felt. I would 100% reccomend Dave as a wedding photographer for anyone looking for someone to trust to capture their special day.

He was professional, had great ideas for photos and was a pleasure to work with. Dave edited the photos and we received the finished photos just three days after the wedding. The entire experience with this company from the initial phone call to receiving the photos was a positive one. I would definitely recommend Dave McIntosh Photographics.

We had an introduction meeting and he instantly made us feel at ease, with his knowledge and experience. He answered all of my questions quickly from the day we met, to my wedding day. We went over our expectations and shot list and Dave produced exactly what we had hoped for and then some! He made my wedding day completely stress free by following our shot list and directing our groups to get the very best pictures. It was exactly what we wanted from a photographer! Our guests raved about how great Dave and his assistant Jason were. Our final photos came back quickly as promised, and are PERFECT. I couldn’t have imagined anything better. We will cherish our photos for years to come.

No question he’s the best wedding photographer.

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, 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!

Jonah you and Jenna were absolutely were fantastic to work with. It always helps me when ...

Dave was fantastic! From our initial email he was so quick to respond every time we reached out to him, and he set up a meeting with us right away to answer our questions. His pricing is extremely reasonable, especially given how experienced he is and the quality of his work. Dave is super knowledgeable, talented, organized, patient, and a pleasure to work with. He got so many gorgeous shots of me with my husband and our families (and remembered to take portraits that I had forgotten about!), and then lots of lovely shots throughout the night. The most incredible part was that he got the photos out to us within 3 days of shooting! Over 500 pictures! They're available for download from an online gallery, he's going to send us a zip file, and he's mailing us a USB, as well. What a gem. He did a wonderful job and we loved working with him. I would highly highly recommend him for any event or special occasion! THANK YOU, DAVE!!

We purchased the Hollywood Streaming package and the photo package. First off, very reasonably priced compared to some other photographers and the level of care and consideration on his end was absolutely top notch. The pictures were incredible.
Dave went through every action item with us via a face time video and created a full itinerary for us for our wedding day and had us put together the photos we wanted along with music selections for our ceremony. It all turned out better than we could have hoped for.
Dave arrived early on the day of and we got started almost right away with the photos and he had everything setup for the stream with plenty of time to spare. His crew was courteous and professional. Dave's level of detail to the photos was apparent when we got the full photo album back. Every photo was spot on, not only the photos we asked for, but the photos that he directed and the "spur of the moment" photos that he captured really summed up the entire feel and spirit of the wedding.
These will be photos (and video) that I will be happy to look back on forever. If you are local to the area and looking for an extremely professional and well organized photographer then Dave is your man.
He was a pleasure to have at the wedding. Very nice and well put together and interacted with everyone at the wedding.
I would recommend Dave and any of his services without hesitation. You will not be disappointed!

Hiring Dave turned out to be one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We were extremely impressed by his level of professionalism from the very first time we made contact. In fact, we held Dave as the standard when evaluating other vendors' professionalism. He was proactive throughout, took initiative and set up meetings to make sure we were all on the same page, and created a photography timeline that satisfied my need for organization. I was stressed about many things while planning the wedding, but the photography was not one of them as I knew I could trust Dave to do a good job. He did not disappoint. On the day of the wedding, he arrived early and was even flexible enough to stay later than planned to capture photos of me in my reception dress. The photos turned out amazing and we even received more than we expected. I love looking at them and so do my family and friends. My only regret? Not hiring Dave for videography as well!

It was great to have Dave McIntosh and Jason photograph our wedding. They were extremely professional and flexible - really important when we were planning a COVID wedding and were changing plans up to just a couple of weeks before the wedding. Our photos turned out to be gorgeous and we loved our final wedding albums.

Dave was great to work with! From the very start he ensured we were on the same page with what I envisioned for the day of. He was really knowledgeable and accommodating for what we asked for and made sure that we got all of the photos we wanted while being mindful of our timeline and us wanting to mingle with our guests. We were especially grateful that he was able to get a group of individuals who don't normally want their photo taken (including myself and the groom) to feel comfortable and relaxed the entire day. We are so pleased with how our photos and album turned out!

Dave was able to perfectly capture what turned out to be the best day of our lives. He came early and found the perfect spots so he was able to get all the photos we could have ever wanted - and more - without taking up our time so that we were able to mingle with our guests and enjoy our wedding day. The photos were returned very quickly and we are constantly getting messages from our guests at how perfectly they turned out. He was a pleasure to work with and was super responsive to our input both before and during the wedding.

Choosing Dave as our photographer was one of the first and easiest decisions we made about our wedding, and it was one of the best! From our first meeting through two postponements, one elopement, and finally the big day, Dave was professional, flexible, accommodating, knowledgeable, and fun. He truly understands photography, especially lighting, and will work to ensure that each photo is perfect. He was amazingly flexible, rescheduling our engagement photos due to weather, and making himself available on a day’s notice when we decided to elope Covid-style. He came with his own know-how and ideas for shots, but was also more than happy to accommodate last minute requests or ideas for shots- and every one turned out beautiful!!!! The second shooter complimented his style exactly. The reception photos are some of my favorites- so many great candids, and you didn’t even notice they were taking pictures. We would recommend Dave to anyone who wants their day captured in a clean, crisp BEAUTIFUL style. Thank you, Dave and Jason!!

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we wanted to find someone experienced to live-stream our wedding for the many people who could not travel to our wedding, but we also wanted to go with a service that provided both photography and live streaming for our wedding. Fortunately, Dave McIntosh showed up as a top result in our online searches and his in-depth website made us know we wanted to work with him. Meeting with him initially, we told him what we had in mind for our ceremony and reception (two locations that were a 25 min drive apart, with the ceremony ending at 1 PM and reception starting at 3 PM) which was no problem for him in terms of setting up for the live stream. I told him we were doing a Catholic wedding and he responded by saying that was all he needed to know. He also provided good recommendations to help us work within our budget but provide the services we really wanted. We also went with getting engagement photos to get more photos of us together and to get to know our photographer, Jason, who posed us in a way that required minimal direction. We received the photos within a week and were able to get a large variety of photos we loved. For the wedding, Dave and his team showed up early to set up at the church and rolled with last-minute changes that happened throughout the day. The ceremony and reception were recorded and photographed beautifully and after the wedding, we got all of the live streaming footage, Zoom logs, and photos within a few days of the event! Dave's quick responsiveness and experience have made working with him absolutely wonderful. We are so grateful to him and his team (Jason and Dan) for helping extend our wedding to many who could not make it and recording our memories that we can look back upon for years to come!

Dave showed up early and had already begun taking shots of the scenery and setting up shots for the wedding later. They were professional and safe during our Covid wedding. They set up some very creative photo ops that turned out stunning. The photo and video editing Dave and his team did were the icing on the cake, leading to pictures and videos that I've shared with friends and family, and will continue to do so for years to come.

Dave did our livestream ceremony this past weekend and it made our wedding so special. We have received rave reviews from all of our virtual guests. I think we had 100 or so people join in from all over the country (and the UK!). From the start Dave was awesome. He is a complete perfectionist in the best way. Sometimes I was hesitant to send him a late night email or weekend question because I felt bad knowing that he would always respond so quickly even when my request wasn’t urgent. He worked really well with our DJ and had to make last minute behind the scenes changes related to mics that I didn’t hear about until after the wedding. Hiring Dave was worth every penny and I’m so glad I didn’t listen to the people who recommended we just throw an iPhone in a tripod and do the livestream ourselves. My uncles review really sums up how great the live stream was: “We started with the slide show, and continued on to the end of the broadcast. We set it up to watch on our big flat-screen TV, and the technical quality was terrific for both sound and picture. Obviously, the people who made it possible knew what they were doing and used the best equipment. The opportunity you provided for us to attend virtually is very much appreciated. Lots of smiles and nods on this end.” I will add that these words from my uncle were completely unsolicited, he just sent my mom an email after the ceremony because he enjoyed watching it that much!

My wife and I recently got married in Washington, D.C. right in the middle of the pandemic. We obviously had to downsize our wedding from 200 to about 40 people. We still wanted to be able to share our wedding with our family and friends but weren't into just setting up a laptop with the camera pointed at us. Dave had multiple cameras set up to broadcast to YouTube, and we also opted for the package where he brought a second videographer along. It worked out so well and we had friends all across the world watch. Check it out and decide for yourself! (https://youtu.be/AwdawA37iEI) Thanks Dave!

Dave is incredible! A true professional through and through. The planning was completely painless because he really knows his stuff (he was always at least two steps ahead of us). Not only that, but after shopping around, you definitely get the most for your money with his services (worth every penny!) He was somehow even better on the wedding day, and he went out of his way to make sure that he had quality shots and sound. Dave, Jason, and their team did a marvelous job with streaming our wedding ceremony, recording the ceremony, and the highlight video of everything far exceeded our expectations. I could not recommend him more highlighly! Book him, and I doubt you will regret it!

My wife and I really enjoyed working with Dave. We decided to utilize his services based on all of the awards he had received. After watching the livestream back, I was blown away by what a high quality product he produced. We got married on the beach and it was windy, but Dave did a masterful job of not letting that impact the end product at all. My wife and I are very pleased and highly recommend Dave. The recording allows for a wonderful memento that we plan on watching each and every anniversary! Thanks, Dave!

We hired Dave McIntosh for both our engagement photos and our wedding day. From the moment we met him, we knew he was the perfect person to capture our special memories. He has a calming personality which is exactly what you want on an otherwise hectic wedding day. The engagement photoshoot was a perfect way to us all to get to know each other and for us to become comfortable in front of the camera. We recently moved to the Baltimore area, and Dave used that opportunity to take us to some excellent locations to capture us falling in love in with the beauty of our new hometown.
Dave has an great eye for beautiful shots and his years of experience shine through in the amazing photos we received. His assistant, Jason, was awesome with the nervous Groom, and the shots he took from the "guys" perspective were really special. They both felt like members of our family by the end of the night!
The entire process from beginning to end (the contract, scouting shooting locations at the venue, planning of the shot list, and especially the "day of" photography - from the "First Look", to the ceremony. to the formal shots. and to the very last dance) was stress free and extremely professional. Our photos are outstanding! Some bring tears to my eyes every time. We can't wait to see our wedding album!
I highly recommend Dave McIntosh if you are looking for high quality photos which will capture all the special intimate moments as well as well as how much fun your guests are having celebrating you!

Both my husband and I have been over the moon with Dave's work. We are so happy with the pictures and videos and can't wait to share them with everyone. From our first meeting with Dave, we knew we wanted to work with him. We booked his services for both our engagement and wedding photos as well as for our wedding video. He made the process very easy and was always quick to respond to our messages. It was clear that he enjoys what he does and that made working with him that much easier. And his team is just as amazing to work with as he is. He was truly wonderful to work with and we hope that we can work with him in the future as well. We are elated with everything and as my husband put it, if he could give Dave and his team a gold medal, he would! We would highly recommend Dave!!!

Any couple lucky enough to book Dave will have the best photography experience possible. We worked with Dave for our engagement photo shoots and our wedding, and we were impressed by his absolute professionalism and expert eye for the best possible shot. Dave was everything we were looking for in a photographer: his technical mastery of his craft is remarkable, and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. Our photographs turned out beautifully! We will treasure them, as well as the experience of working with Dave. We cannot recommend Dave McIntosh highly enough to do him justice.

I had the pleasure of working with Dave for my engagement photos & wedding day and would absolutely recommend him to everyone! Dave was very attentive, professional, forward thinking & prepared for all situations. My wedding ended at 9pm and by midnight I had an email of 19 sneak peak photos, which in my opinion is just above & beyond quality service. I am now in the process of picking photos for my custom album and I'm having the hardest time narrowing my favorites down!

Dave and his team did an outstanding job, starting with our engagement pictures. My husband and I had never had professional photos done and aren't used to the camera. Dave made us feel comfortable and directed us so we'd get good pictures. On our wedding day he and his team went above and beyond. While there are some photos I wished I had asked for, the photographers did a great job capturing all the important moments. They were kind and professional as well. Now I can't wait to see the videos that came out of our day!
