About
I'm Vince, the wedding, engagement, and surprise proposal photographer behind Capital City Photography in Richmond, VA.
My approach is documentary. I focus on connection, real emotion, and the in-between moments that make your story yours. I give gentle direction when you need it, but I'm always watching for the laughter, the quiet looks, and the small details you never want to forget.
I shoot both photo and video, so you can keep everything with one person who already knows your timeline. Whether it's an engagement session or a full wedding day, my goal is to keep things calm and organized so you can relax and be present with each other.
You can see full galleries and recent work by searching Capital City Photography - my site will pop right up.

Vince was so great! He shot our engagement last week and was nothing but professional. I reached out to him months in advance and he helped me set everything up and gave me exactly what I was looking for. My fianc and I had a great experience working with him and the photos came out great! If you are looking for someone to help capture your special moment, Vince is your guy!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I am looking to grow my wedding portfolio so I am giving considerable one-time discounts to elopement and wedding clients who book during the offseason (November through March).
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We start by discussing your vision and needs, then schedule a session. Before the shoot, we’ll talk about outfit choices, location, and any specific requests. After the session, you'll receive your edited photos via an online gallery.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have years of experience capturing couples, portraits, headshots, and family moments, coupled with a passion for creating images that tell a story. I continue learning and improving through photography workshops and client feedback.
