Rebekah is the most amazing photographer! We had the challenge of planning our wedding during the pandemic, but choosing Rebekah to be our wedding photographer was the best decisio...
n and made our wedding planning process so much easier! She was always available and ready to respond to any questions or thoughts we had throughout planning. She also gave such thoughtful feedback - be it for photo inspiration, timeline, or logistics. Throughout our wedding day she helped us feel calm and happy despite all the things going on around us, all the while capturing our most authentic selves. Rebekah's photos came out so wonderfully! Her style and editing are exactly what we wanted and we have received countless compliments from our family and friends. Rebekah herself is kind, patient, smart, thoughtful, and always prepared. She really knows what she's doing and is a true professional!
Stop looking, you have found THE BEST! We chose Rebekah after interviewing 5 other popular and well-reviewed photographers in our area to photograph our wedding. From our first int...
eraction Rebekah was nothing but kind, cheerful, responsive, and extremely helpful. We loved how her packages include “credits” that can be used for items of your choice. We chose to do the engagement shoot and could not recommend doing this more! It gave us a chance to get comfortable in front of the camera and for Rebekah to guide us through the pictures, which was SO helpful. During our sessions she was very friendly and encouraging and made us feel very at ease! Throughout the wedding planning process she was right with us each step of the way and offered timeline, décor, and style suggestions. She and her team went above and beyond for us on our wedding day- even saving our cake from a sudden downpour and staying longer than expected due to the rain delay! In the end our pictures turned out better than I could have ever dreamed of! My husband and I are beyond pleased with our photos and our experience with Rebekah. We are two very happy and loyal Rebekah Emily Photography clients for life!
Let me start off by saying Rebekah is freaking amazing. Not only is she a very talented photographer but she is the sweetest person you’ll ever meet. I knew Rebekah would deliver u...
s the most beautiful pictures before she even shot our engagement pictures. She makes the groom feel special and she really is able to capture your love in a photograph. Rebekah also guides you as she shoots, which is extremely helpful. I could thank her a million times and it would still not be enough. You will forever have a special place in our hearts.
I had a wonderful experience with Rebekah as our wedding photographer! As a photographer myself, I knew this was going to be the hardest, yet most important vendor I hired. I kne...
w what I was looking for, so when I came upon Rebekah's portfolio, style and approach, I had a feeling she was the one! After a virtual meeting, it confirmed everything - she was professional, confident, easy to talk to and she knows her stuff! I knew that personality is just as important as talent, as your photographer is with you the entire day and interacting with all your guests. Rebekah was warm, genuine, calm and in control. She was flexible in our engagement location and was able to be with us the entire wedding weekend- Friday through Sunday. Her second shooter and assistant were equally as wonderful and professional, and she worked well with our videographer. She was able to get us previews the evening of each night (amazing) which satisfied the craving to see photos right away and gave me the patience to wait for the incredible full gallery, which we were blown away by. It felt like we didn't see her (in a good way), but yet she was everywhere- capturing every detail! She dealt with some crazy winds, golf carts and fussy toddlers like a champ. My husband is not "into photos," but even he raved about how wonderful she was and how comfortable he felt. You will not regret hiring Rebekah and it is SO important to invest in capturing these memories that go by so fast so you can relive them for years to come!
Rebekah was extremely professional but personable in all her communication with us, very flexible and easy to work with, and careful to make sure she didn't miss anything we wanted...
. She went above and beyond on the day of the wedding, and the pictures are absolutely beautiful! She made us feel much more comfortable in front of the camera than we expected, and she was really great about getting pictures of the groom and groomsmen and not just focusing on the bride and bridesmaids. We strongly recommend her!
We just had Rebekah take our engagement photos and we are absolutely THRILLED with her work :) We were both nervous ahead of time about taking the photos and how they might turn ou...
t, and all I can say is WOW! Rebekah made us completely comfortable and her work turned out stunning. I can't wait to see her again at our wedding, and I'm 100% confident we will be thrilled once again! Highly recommend hiring her - you will not be disappointed!
Looking for a wedding photographer, someone who can capture your perfect day, is pretty daunting. You want someone who fits your style, can capture the serious and silly. Someone w...
ho ALWAYS has a smile on. Rebekah is that person. From the beginning, we felt 100% comfortable with her and like we had been lifelong friends. She understood exactly what we were looking for - a lot of laughs - and captured everything perfectly. She paid attention to the smallest detail, and I'm so glad we have that captured. We have gorgeous photos, ones that I look at every day (not joking) and I am instantly transported back to my magical day. I recommend Rebekah 100% percent and would hire her over and over. She is super responsive, flexible, easy to work with. She was super helpful when putting together a timeline (over a year in advance!!!) and seamlessly integrated with all of our other vendors. I've had friends and family gush over our photos, wondering why they didn't think to hire her. We cannot recommend Rebekah enough and thank her for her excellent work!!
Rebekah took our engagement photos for us, and let me tell you, she is one talented photographer. She had lots of creative ideas to give us a variety of different feeling photos to...
choose from: soft and romantic to fun and laughter. Couple’s photo shoots can get pretty personal, so it’s important to choose a photographer you feel comfortable with. Rebekah will put you at ease immediately through her sweet personality and her professionalism. My now husband and I could not have been happier with our gorgeous photos! Our families both loved them as well. If you’re looking for someone to shoot the most stunning photos and have fun with you while doing it, look no further than Rebekah Emily Photography. She was truly a delight to work with!
Rebekah was absolutely amazing!!!!! Her abilities are out of this world and her photographs show it! They are absolutely breathtaking!
When we first met Rebekah we fell in love wi...
th not only her work but her bubbly welcoming personality.
She invites you into her home for coffee or wine and truly wants to know your story, wants to know what makes you tick as a couple so she can capture those little things that make you.... YOU!
During both our engagement photos & our wedding her prescence brought a calming sense while capturing the most beautiful photos!
We couldn’t have picked a more perfect photographer than Rebekah. We love ya!
Rebekah is the sweetest person I have ever met! My fiance and I had a facetime interview with Rebekah before booking with her. She made us feel instantly at ease asking us questi...
ons about how we met, what we like to do together and what we would like from our photographer. She is extraordinarily professional, organized and her special touches (like sending us an amazing gift box after booking) are all the icing on the cake of an incredibly talented photographer. The images she captures and her editing are perfect. She pays attention to all the details without overlooking the big picture. Our wedding will be next June, but during our engagement session she was very patient while directing us in our posing and helped us have fun and feel at ease which reflected in our expressions in the photos. She has been accommodating and our photos are high quality and gorgeous. We can't wait for her to photograph our wedding, we have absolute confidence and trust she will capture every detail beautifully.
From the time we got engaged and booked her, Rebekah has been nothing but a sweet, knowledgeable resource for planning our big day. Her photos are breathtaking and she puts just as...
much effort into photographing the groom as she does the bride (which is rare). We have been stunned with how beautifully Rebekah captured our day - she has an incredible talent. Her crisp, bright photographs are gorgeous and will stand the test of time. I would recommend Rebekah to any couple or family searching for someone to capture their special moments!
Rebekah photographed my daughter’s wedding in September. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. There may be other good photographers out there, but Rebekah has a gift for t...
his. Her way of making pictures is definitely an art! Her and her assistant were both professional, organized, and punctual. The whole evening ran smoothly and she couldn’t have been more kind. I would recommend her for a wedding or any other event.
Rebekah was with me every step of my wedding - from early planning straight thru to the big day. She was sweet, professional, and completely fabulous. She provided excellent insi...
ght, forethought and helpful hints based on her past experiences thru the entire wedding planning process. She posed us but allowed us to be ourselves and let our personalities shine thru. I received very high praise from all of our friends and family for her professional non-intrusive presence during the ceremony and reception. We couldn't believe it when barely 3 days later, 50+ preview photos showed up! We couldn't be happier with our photos, they are truly amazing and everything we wanted. We can't thank or praise her and her team enough!
Rebekah is an absolutely amazing photographer and a wonderful person to work with! She was professional and creative, helpful and fun! I really enjoyed working with her and I am ex...
cited to use her for future life events. Thanks Rebekah!
Rebekah is a diamond in the rough! She’s an absolute gem and joy to work with, and she’s incredibly talented. She makes delicious treats for you at your consultation, too. Mostly s...
he just radiates love, which is exactly what you’ll want on your wedding day. She’s a great communicator, too, which is so important for someone in this line of work. Love her and miss her already!
Rebekah was all around incredible to work with. From the first meeting, our engagement session, our engagement photos, the little gifts during the in between time, the wedding, and...
now our wedding photos, we have been impressed. Time and time again she outdid herself. Our photos for both occasions were finished and presented to us earlier than expected. She was able to keep both of our large families in line and keep the down time to a minimum. Above all, she was a pleasure to work with and fun to be around. We hope that future couples give her a chance to WOW them in the same way as she did for us.
She is THE.BEST. First off, she has the most calming presence and as soon as we met her we knew she could handle it all. We are so grateful to have found Rebekah for our wedding da...
y. I can't tell you how many family members and friends complimented her work ethic (and capturing some pretty epic moments)!!! Would definitely hire her again for future life events and any other occasion! Not only are her photos stunning but she is organized, responsive and able to go with the flow when things didn't go as planned. She also sent us the most amazing pre-wedding book & gift box. We included it in our detail shots we love it so much. Keith and I always wondered how people were able to smile and "fake" laugh for the camera but Rebekah was so great about making you feel comfortable while ensuring all the photos you want are done and done right.
Rebekah was so amazing to work with. I don't think we could have asked for a better experience! She made us feel so comfortable (neither one of us considers ourselves to be very ph...
otogenic) and we were thrilled with how everything came out! We worked with Rebekah for our engagement photoshoot where she was such a great sport about buzzing all over DC and photographing our dogs. During our wedding Rebekah and her team were great with our friends and family. They were also nearly invisible during the ceremony/reception but still got amazing shots.
Rebekah submitted her work on our wedding to the Washingtonian magazine, and they agreed with everyone else on how great the photos were and featured them! We consider ourselves so lucky to have found her, and would absolutely recommend her.
Genuine, organized, artistic, fun, and professional! Rebekah is by far the best vendor we hired. She truly wants your day to be special and will help you in any way she can. Every ...
picture we have from the engagement photos and wedding photos are the best I have ever seen. I love her style. It is one of a kind. If I need a photographer for anything, Rebekah will be our only call!
Rebekah was absolutely wonderful to work with. There are many great photographers available for you to hire, and you can easily get an idea of the quality of their work from their ...
online portfolios. What makes Rebekah truly wonderful and different from other photographers is not only her amazing photos, but her easy going attitude, responsiveness, and dedication to her clients.
Rebekah is amazing! She is very artistic and pays great attention to every detail. She is very professional an you can tell she loves what she does!!! I am so thankful we was our p...
hotographer- her work is amazing and I would recommend her to anyone.
The best piece of advice I can give future brides is to surround yourself with vendors that you love. Rebekah was just that. Rebekah turned out to be so much more than a photograph...
er. From the beginning, she was kind and warm. Rebekah reached out after I got my dress and throughout the engagement to make sure I was doing okay. For the wedding itself, she helped me create our timeline so we would have enough time for pictures and even sent me a reception playlist suggestion when I was struggling to put one together. She alleviated my wedding stress in so many ways and was a delight to have at our wedding.
Aside from her incredible personality, Rebekah's pictures are absolutely GORGEOUS. We love how she incorporated natural light into her pictures giving the pictures a soft and romantic look. My husband and I both feel awkward in front of the camera, but Rebekah made us feel comfortable and helped us have fun during the engagement session and bridal portraits. I would recommend her a thousand times over! She has a kind, caring soul and was a delight to have at our wedding. Save yourself stress right now...choose Rebekah for your photographer and you will not for a second doubt your decision!
Rebekah and her team did an incredible job capturing our wedding! She and her team were so sweet to everyone and created truly beautiful photographs. She also listened wholehearte...
dly to my requests about types of photos and photo style.
I don't know that you'll be able to find a better wedding photographer than Rebekah! She is organized in every aspect and she genuinely wants your day to be perfect! Her pictures a...
re absolutely stunning! She uses both a digital and a film camera and I haven't seen a picture that isn't breathtaking! You will be so thankful you booked her as a photographer. She helps you plan your day from beginning to end and she helps you to stay on time throughout the entire day! She arrives early and works continually. She was a great addition to our wedding day!
Rebekah is by far one of the best wedding vendors I worked with throughout my engagement and day of the wedding! Rebekah is genuinely concerned with making her clients happy and wi...
ll do her best to accommodate special requests. The overall experience of working with Rebekah put my mind at ease during the wedding and the gallery did not disappoint! She arrived early, helped us stick to our timeline as best as possible, and captured so many sweet and sentimental moments that truly made our wedding day special. I received a lot of compliments from friends, family, and our bridal party about how lovely it was to work with Rebekah. As someone who was a bridesmaid in a wedding two weeks after my own wedding, I can say that I truly appreciate Rebekah's calm and sweet character, which are not traits you will find in all photographers. I am SO glad I selected her as our wedding photographer - do not hesitate in booking her - she is absolutely wonderful!
Rebekah was awesome!! She was on top of it all day and I don't think the camera ever left her face- talk about hard working! The quality of the end product was top notch. Not to me...
ntion Rebekah is simply the sweetest person ever. Thank you Rebekah Emily Photography for capturing our special day so perfectly!
I would recommend Rebekah 1000 times over for a wedding photographer! Ever since our first email interaction, Rebekah has been absolutely incredible. She followed up after I went d...
ress shopping to see if I found a keeper and was patient with the dozens of questions I had for her, and this was before we even booked her. I immediately felt at ease with Rebekah and knew she would be a comforting presence at our wedding. Rebekah shot our engagement photos this past November. My fiance and I feel pretty awkward in front of the camera, but she made us feel right at ease. She is extremely responsive via email and also helped us find our wedding videographer.
I seriously could not be happier with Rebekah as our wedding photographer. She is passionate and extremely talented. I would give her 10 out of 5 stars if I could. Oh and she also does random giveaways via social media. Rebekah is truly the best!!!!!
We LOVED working with Rebekah. Our wedding was just as stressful as the rest, but Rebekah was always a calming influence. She went above and beyond to make sure my fiance (now husb...
and) and I felt as happy with our whole wedding process as possible. The photographs she took are stunning. My husband is more than a little camera shy but her photos of him are natural and lovely. She captured all the best moments. I recommend Rebekah 5,000%!
Hiring Rebekah for our summer wedding was one of the best decisions we made, by far! She was so genuinely interested in making our big day exactly how we dreamed. While we so app...
reciated her extremely kindness, patient and professionalism, her work alone would be worth the price! We couldn't believe how affordable she was for the quality of her work. I've had friends pay three times as much for someone not nearly as gifted as Rebekah! She's truly worth every penny!
I'm a bride that normally hates being the center of attention and I feared my pictures would reflect that - awkwardness and such. But Rebekah's calm demeanor made the whole process comfortable, and she captured so many sweet and genuine moments that I cried for joy when I saw our pictures. They were absolutely breath taking! We are constantly receiving compliments when someone sees our wedding photos and we're always quick to refer them to Rebekah!
My wedding coordinator recommended Rebekah to me for a photographer for our wedding in Wrightsville beach. I knew from seeing her website that she was capable of good work, but sh...
e continuously impressed me with every detail! Her work is not just good, it is GREAT! She was actually the one who kept me sane the day of my wedding. This girl knows what she is doing and she is very genuine with every action. She is aware of what to do in order to get beautiful shots and I love her "candid" shots so much. My photos are a treasure and I can truly say that I wisely invested in having her shoot my wedding!
Working with Rebekah was a joy from day one. She made sure to include me in all of her emails and phone calls to us, making sure that I felt involved as the groom (something very i...
mportant to me!).
On the day of, Rebekah and her second shooter could not have been better to work with. They captured all of the moments we remembered and plenty we missed. They seemed to be present the whole time but were never in the middle of things. Our friends and family all told us how great she was to have a part of the day - definitely something you don't always hear after weddings.
Of course, the photos are incredible. We feel so fortunate to have them to look at for the rest of our lives. I really can't recommend Rebekah highly enough.
Rebekah was the best photographer!!! Our entire experience from the first day we Skyped (we were planning our wedding from across the country so we couldn't meet in person) was rea...
lly wonderful. Rebekah was so encouraging and warm to talk to, and genuinely excited about our big day. Choosing a photographer was probably one of the toughest wedding decisions for me, and I couldn't be happier that we found her!
The morning of the wedding I was running a bit behind schedule, so I was still at the salon when Rebekah got to the house to start pictures. I was stressed that I needed to get back to say hello and make sure she had all the things she needed to get started. As soon as I got there and met her though, I knew I had nothing to worry about—she had everything totally under control and was already almost done getting all our details shots taken care of. I instantly felt much more at ease with her happy, calming presence through those getting ready moments, and that just continued on through the rest of the day! She was also super flexible and willing to go with the flow as we filled a long gap between our ceremony and reception. (We ended up going out to a restaurant for drinks/appetizers with our bridal party, and Rebekah and her second shooter came along and captured a few fun shots of our down time. She even helped us schedule our afternoon to balance having time to relax and still leaving enough time for portraits.)
Rebekah did a great job making us feel relaxed and comfortable taking all our portraits and bridal party shots with her, which really comes through in the pictures. Speaking of which, her pictures are AMAZING. (And they were ready so soon!) The natural, light, and airy quality is exactly what we were looking for. The wedding day went by so quickly, and we're grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully.
Rebekah has been such a joy to work with and made us feel so cared for throughout the whole process. I would highly, highly recommend her!
Rebekah was such a great person to work with. Super sweet, super professional, and really took some breathtaking photographs of our wedding day. For a girl who is not used to being...
in any way photogenic, and closes her eyes in every other picture she's ever taken in her life, I am totally impressed with these gorgeous pictures. From chasing rain clouds for our engagement shoot to the final email about pictures being ready (which was SUPER FAST!), Rebekah has been accommodating, straight-forward, and amazing. I was referred to her by other friends who loved her as well, and I totally understand why.
She also gives digital versions of all the pics so I was able to make photo books, canvases, magnets, etc. I loved it!
As far as value, quality, flexibility, and kindness, this is definitely top notch.
We had the privilege to have Rebekah take photographs during our small wedding ceremony in old town Warrenton. From the moment she introduced herself to the very last minute of tak...
ing pictures she was very professional and it felt as if she had been a long time friend who just decided to help out. Both me and my husband aren't very happy about having pictures taken of us and she did a splendid job helping us relax and guide us through the whole process by instructing us in how to act in front of the camera. The pictures we received from her was amazing! We received so many pictures and the only hard part was trying to figure out which one we liked the best.
If I ever hear anyone looking for a photographer I know who I will send them too.
Thank you Rebekah for making our day a very special and memorable day!
