Samaya Ali says, "Brandon Cephus is an exceptionally talented second generation professional photographer! I hired him to shoot my mother's surprise milestone birthday party...and he delivered!!! Brandon took time to discuss the event with me in advance to understand what was important to me to capture. The beautiful array of photos he took literally documented every nuance of my mother's reaction when she arrived at the party, all of the guests and their interactions with mom, and the decorated space where the event was hosted.If you want a confident, highly skilled, professional to unobtrusively photograph what matters most to you, he is the "go to." I would hire him again! Thank you Brandon for making every moment beautiful....now I just have to pick the final photos which will be soooo hard to do!!!"See more

Anita W. says, "Working with this team has been such an amazing experience, they had just as much enthusiasm about our project as we did. They had so many fun ideas and poses for us to do and they were just so pleasant and fun to be a part of our story. We will definitely be working with them again (my mom already wants to do family photos with them). I can't say enough about how great they are!"See more

Gregory N. says, "I asked for an author photo for an upcoming book. Valery reserved a room at the Portsmouth Library for the photo. I was self-conscious at first. With her enthusiasm and delightful personality, she put me at ease. I'm very pleased with the photos, and they've garnered many compliments from others. I highly recommend the Art-room!"See more

Michelle-Morgan W. says, "Working with Mr. Dwight Wilson was an amazing experience from start to finish. From the very beginning, he helped me develop and refine my vision for my Sagittarius horse photo shoot, and he executed it beautifully. He traveled a long distance, showed up on time, and worked in extremely cold weather without complaint. This shoot involved a live animal, and Dwight adapted quickly, listened carefully to the horse trainer, and adjusted his approach seamlessly to ensure both safety and great results. His patience truly stood out—he stayed on location until the sun went down to make sure we captured the best possible shots. Dwight also coached me through poses, positioning, and movement, which made me feel confident and comfortable throughout the shoot. His professionalism, flexibility, and attention to detail resulted in stunning photos that exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for a photographer who is dedicated, creative, patient, and willing to go the extra mile—literally and figuratively. I highly recommend Dwight Wilson."See more

You're not hiring a camera operator - you're hiring a director who's spent 16+ years making organizations look like they matter. Our client list includes Leidos, the ACLU of DC, the Museum of the Bible, and event coverage at the White House. That work taught us the things that make corporate video painless: we show up early, we don't need hand-holding, and we know how to move through a conference, gala, or interview day without disrupting it. Everything is story-first. Whether it's a three-camera symposium or a single interview, you get footage that's edited to carry a message, not just document a room. We're FAA Part 107 certified for drone work, insured, and based in DC - most of our clients are within twenty minutes of us. Tell us what you're trying to say, and we'll build the video that says it.See more

I'm a cinematic photographer who makes you look like the best version of yourself. My style is editorial and timeless, the kind of images you'll still love years from now, not trendy shots that feel dated by next season. What sets me apart is that you work directly with me from start to finish. No handoffs, no assembly line. I direct you through every pose so you never have to worry about what to do with your hands or whether you look stiff. Even people who "hate being photographed" leave feeling comfortable and happy with their photos. I show up early, I'm easy to work with, and I deliver a polished gallery you can be proud of. Whether it's a portrait, event, or editorial shoot, my goal is simple: images that actually capture you, delivered on time, with zero stress. Let's create something you'll love.See more
