    Amy was a delight to work with from our first meeting until we received our final images. She and her assistant Arianna's laid back, hands-off approach was exactly what we were looking for, and set everyone at ease. The images captured do an amazing job telling the story of our wedding day, and we couldn't be happier with the end results!

    I'm not even sure where to begin with recommending how AMAZING Amy Raab and her assistant, Allison, were at our wedding this past September. For me, finding the perfect photographer was the most important ingredient in the overall scheme of the wedding festivities. After 2-3 hour long interviews with multiple highly-acclaimed photographers, fortunately for my husband and I, we found the light: AMY!

    Upon meeting with her I was completely at ease and really enjoyed our conversation. She wasn't trying to sell or push me as to why I should choose her company. Keep in mind, Amy doesn't shoot a wedding every Saturday and take on just any contract. Because of her talent and the quality of her...

    Amy is fantastic! For us, the wedding photographs were important because we will have them forever. We knew upon meeting Amy that she was a perfect fit. Amy has this great energy that makes posing for photos natural and fun. She only accepts a few weddings so she can focus on those and you will indeed get her focus. Amy is responsive, professional, and talented to boot! She helped coax my camera-shy husband into posing for our engagement session and she found stunning backdrops to shoot us with our dog. On the big day, she and her assistant took so many amazing photos it was a challenge deciding which ones to frame. If you are looking for a skilled photographer who will make the experience a comfortable and easy one, look no further than Amy.

    As I said to Amy on the wedding day, I really appreciated her uplifting mood, always beautiful smile and patience!!! It made the whole difference to me, my husband and our guests. I felt very comfortable and felt I could trust her!!! When she wanted a special shot, she would know how to lead us to it. She also was very receptive to our photo requests. Thanks for adding your spirit to our day, Amy!

    Amy was absolutely amazing!!! She was always very responsive and extremely flexible. She was very willing to do a payment plan with us and was always open to hearing our ideas and suggestions. The day of the wedding, Amy was professional, calm (handled the madness of our big families and huge weddings amazing), and truly captured every moment. After the wedding, Amy sent us our pictures in a very timely manner. We were, and still are, THRILLED with how our pictures turned out. Amy also used her connections to get our wedding featured in The Washingtonian Bride and Groom wedding blog! All in all, Amy was the best and we would 100% recommend her to new brides and grooms!!

    Amy did such a wonderful job on the photos. Everyone keeps raving about the pictures. She made us feel so comfortable and it came through in the pictures. She was very accommodating and so easy going. Highly recommend her! I can't stop looking at the pictures and can't stop raving about her!!

    Searching all over the internet to find a photographer at the last minute. That's when we came across Amy Raab's website and we had to have her as our photographer. Our first time meeting her was on our wedding day (07/25/14) and she was outstanding. We felt as if we knew her for forever. She captured beautiful moments of our wedding that we wouldn't ever forget. She was a pleasure to be around an to work with. She made us feel very comfortable and relaxed on our wedding day. Her work is outstanding! Our pictures were ready within two weeks and came out beautifully. We were very blessed to have her as our photographer! And our family enjoyed her as well! We will be using her services for more moments to come. . . DTS

    We first found Amy's work through the wedding coordinator at the Naval Academy, and I was struck by how creative she was with her photos in a way other wedding photographers weren't -- she had detail shots that captured moments beyond just the bride and groom and guests, you could really feel the day itself in her work, and there was a certain artistry with her images we couldn't find with anyone else. Now that we have our photos, I can't stop looking at them! As journalists, we were looking for someone to really tell a story from our wedding day, not plug-and-chug through a checklist of shots. Amy and Arianne made sure they got the photos we wanted...

    My husband and I recently received all of our wedding photos from Amy and we were quite simply speechless about how Amy and her assistant, Arianne, captured the love, emotion, and beauty of our day. Upon looking at the photos they took, we were instantly brought back to the tears of joy we shed as we saw each other from opposite ends of the aisle for the first time and the laughter we shared while we danced with all of our guests. Amy is truly brilliant and has a rare talent that you will not find elsewhere. We were equally amazed by the incredible talent of her assistant, Arianne. They were an absolute pleasure to work with.

    We hired Amy and her assistant Arianne for our October wedding at the Fairmont Washington DC. We were extremely pleased with how our photos turned out and would hire them again.. Amy was very helpful in helping us map out a photography timeline, especially since we decided to do a "first look." She knew exactly how long each portion should take and how to make things go smoothly. We started by them taking photos of the guys and girls getting ready, then my husband and I by ourselves at our venue, and in Georgetown (I scouted the locations myself but that's because I wanted to). Then the usual wedding party & family photos. I am an advocate of the...

    After searching online for photographers throughout the Washington area, I stumbled across Amy Raab's website and instantly fell in love with the richness of color in her photos and her knack for capturing special moments instead of cheesy poses. Once I spoke with her over the phone, I was sold! Not only is she talented, but she is warm and friendly and clearly passionate about her work. I booked her immediately and I am so happy I did!

    My husband and I first met Amy at our engagement session. She spent so much time with us and our dog Emma to make sure she got the perfect shots, and the photos came out amazing! We used them...

    Amy was nothing short of incredible. My husband and I felt that finding a GREAT photographer was the most important item on our wedding "to do" list - the photographer stays close to you for the entire event so you want to be comfortable, and of course, you want to have someone talented who can preserve your happy memories forever! Amy delivered and then some. We liked her from the first time we sat down with her to talk about plans and expectations - she is a consummate professional but also so very, very friendly and put us at ease right away. She makes it clear that she works within her limitations - 20 weddings a year - so...

    Amy is AMAZING! She is such a sweetheart and a pleasure to work with. She knows how to get all the shots you want and be unabtrusive while doing so. If you want to capture your day with beauty and professionalism in a way that will have you reminiscing with those photos for a lifetime...have Amy Raab shoot your wedding!!!

    I probably contacted Amy a week before our small wedding/civil ceremony on Valentine's Day before my finance was to be deployed to Afghanistan. Amy was game - she was available, positive, enthusiastic and flexible, and worked with us to fit our budget. She fit in so well, my dad mistook her for another one of his daughters! My fiance (now husband) & I had few good pictures of ourselves, especially together, so it was very important to us to have pictures of this day - also the third anniversary of the day we met. Amy's pictures of us together, particularly the ones that include our two dogs, make me feel like, "finally - we have really nice pictures of...

    Amy Raab and her associate David Spence are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! The two most important things when it comes to a wedding photographer are how comfortable you will be in front of the camera and the quality of the photographs. Amy more than delivers on both!
    She is such a sweet, down-to-earth, and approachable person. You quickly feel like you have known her forever, she allows you to completely be yourself and somehow makes you unaware that a camera is even present.
    The results are even more extraordinary! I have received compliment after compliment about the photographs... high remarks regarding the color saturation, formal shots that do not look too "stiff and staged", her knack for capturing special candid...

    Amy Raab is extremely professional! My daughter and her fiance waited until the last minute to arrange an engagement photo shoot. Amy responded very quickly to the request. I communicated with her a couple of times as we were driving from North Carolina to Annapolis. Amy always responded very quickly to my e-mails. Amy was on time and began immediately to put Jackie and Stephen at ease. Jackie is a bit shy and this experience has given her an idea of what to expect on her wedding day. We were able to preview the pictures online. It was great fun for Jackie and Stephen because they arrived in their e-mail on New Year's Eve! There were a lot of...

    All I can say is that Amy Raab is amazing!

    We had been completely overwhelmed when we began to look for vendors, especially photographers. What we loved most about Amy was her excitement. She was genuinely excited about our wedding and every wedding she has ever photographed. Her excitement was infectious which made everyone at ease when she was working and often times you forgot she was even there. Amy was also very dedicated to the event, and made sure to take the time and individualize and understand each shoot. These two characteristics made for a great balance between priceless candids and beautiful posed photos, the best of both worlds in photography.

    Both our engagement...

    When I got engaged in February of 2010 I knew two things - we were getting married in Annapolis and I HAD to have Amy Raab as my photographer! Her work is phenomenal and once we met her it was just the icing on the cake! She is very professional, warm, inviting and clearly well versed and inspired by what she does.

    We had a great experience every time we met with her - for both our engagement shoot and our wedding. She was prompt and thorough with all communications and never hesitated to offer a listening ear when we had concerns or questions.

    For our wedding we also hired her assistant, David Spence - he...

    Amy and David were absolutely amazing to work with from start to finish! Whenever I sent an email I'd hear back immediately-and they couldn't have been more accommodating! I can't tell you how many wedding guests have been raving about their work! They just have a way of capturing the moment perfectly without ever being obtrusive. If I had to do it all over again I honestly wouldn't change a thing! I can't recommend Amy Raab Photography to enough brides, I promise you will not be disappointed!

    Amy is an exceptional photographer. We used her for engagement, wedding and family photographs and each time she amazed me. She makes you feel comfortable and is always able to get great shots. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. You won't be disappointed!

    Oh my gosh Amy and her assistant Arianne were amazing at our wedding! I can't tell you how many compliments I've received about her. It was so much fun to see how much she loves her job. She was so sweet and patient and kept us all smiling with her enthusiasm. At one point I remember (before the ceremony) when my nerves were out of control, thinking how happy I was to have her there with her calming energy. I felt very relaxed with Amy there and completely worry free.
    We just got married, so I haven't seen the pictures yet, but I just wanted to let everyone know how great she was.
    Amy, thank you from the bottom of my heart!

    Amy and David were so wonderful! It was a pleasure working with them and having them document our big day. I haven't seen the photos yet (the wedding was only about 1.5 weeks ago) but the few that I did see during the wedding/reception looked AMAZING! I can't wait to see the final result. I'm positive it will be everything I wanted.

    Amy (and her associate David Spence) are the best! We have not gotten our wedding photos back yet (we just got married!) but our engagement photos were amazing! Amy and David both really put us (and our wedding party and families) at ease and are such fun, enthusiastic photographers to work with! You can tell they both really love what they do and the pictures show it! You will not be disappointed when you choose Amy Raab photography! We are so excited to get our pictures back :)
