We are OBSESSED with our save the date photos with JustShoot Photography LLC. He really understood the assignment and delivered! From the moment we started the shoot, the vibe was so comfortable and natural. Nothing felt forced, and the energy between us was captured so beautifully.

Me and my wife were extremely pleased with the results. The turnaround time was quick, the editing was flawless, and the photos came out clean, classy, and full of love. Every shot felt intentional and real. You can literally feel the connection in the images.

We’ve already booked our next photoshoot and our wedding with him. That’s how much we trust his vision and talent.

Thank you, JustShoot Photography, for bringing our vision to life!!

My husband and I cannot say enough good things about Douley and his incredible videography and photography team! From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, he was absolutely AMAZING!!!!! His communication skills are top-notch—he kept in touch throughout the planning process and made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way.

Douley was calm, collected, and clearly experienced—never once did we feel like things were disorganized. He truly knows what he's doing and it shows. If you’re thinking about booking him, do it FAST. His talent and professionalism IS EVIDENT and you need him and his team for your photo needs!!

We’re so glad we found our photographer and will be using Douley for all of our future photo needs. Thank you again!

Hiring Douley was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding on 5/31/25! We hired him to capture our engagement pics and wedding day photos/video. He was very professional in all of our interactions and promptly provided high quality pictures for everlasting memories. Our wedding photos turned out beyond anything we imagined and he managed to masterfully capture every special moment from the day. Highly recommend Douley to any couple looking for a photographer to capture their engagement and wedding pictures!

<p style="text-align: center;">Hello there! Douley here, and I am excited to share some insights with you on how to prepare for your engagement session. This is a unique opportunity for us to get to know each other better before your big day, and for you to become accustomed to the camera. It's my goal to ensure you have a successful and enjoyable photo shoot, so here are some tips to make that happen.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Let's start with outfit choices. Wearing something comfortable and reflective of your style can make a big difference in how you feel during the session. Consider coordinating your outfits, but avoid matching too perfectly. Instead, aim for a cohesive look. For example, if one of you is wearing a bold color, the other might choose a more neutral tone that complements it. Also, consider the location and season of your shoot. A flowing dress might be perfect for a beach shoot, while a cozy sweater could be ideal for a winter session.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Speaking of locations, this choice can add a personal touch to your photos. Think of places that hold special meaning for you as a couple. It could be where you had your first date, your favorite park, or even your own home. Don't be afraid to think outside the box. Unique locations can make your photos stand out - think of a library for book lovers, or a vintage car rental for automobile enthusiasts.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">When it comes to poses, my biggest advice is to be yourselves. Authenticity shines through in photos. I'm here to guide you, but your natural interactions will create the most meaningful images. Think of this session as a date, with me as your third wheel, capturing your love story. Don't worry about looking perfect in every shot. It's the genuine laughter, tender glances, and spontaneous moments that truly make your photos special.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Finally, remember this is a fun experience! It's an opportunity to create lasting memories before you say 'I do.' Feeling nervous is completely normal, but I assure you, after a few snaps, you'll ease into it.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The objective of an engagement session is to capture your unique love story. With these tips, I hope you feel more prepared and excited for your photo shoot. Can't wait to work with you and capture your beautiful moments!</p>

Preparing for Your Engagement Session: A Guide for Couples

<p style="text-align: center;">Hello there! I'm Douley, a professional photographer who's had the pleasure of capturing beautiful love stories in the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area. Today, I'm going to take you on a tour of my top 5 favorite wedding venues in Washington DC. These are unique locations, perfect for creating unforgettable memories.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">First on the list is the <span style="color: rgb(28, 28, 225);"><a href="https://washingtonparks.net/events/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">'Josephine Butler Parks Center'</a></span>. This historic Renaissance Revival mansion is one of the most charming venues in DC. It's perfect for couples who love the elegance of vintage architecture combined with a touch of nature. The venue boasts a grand ballroom, solarium, and a breathtaking garden, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor weddings. The best time to get married here is in the spring when the gardens bloom into a riot of colors.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The <span style="color: rgb(28, 28, 225);"><a href="https://unionmarketdc.com/venue/dock5/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">'Dock 5 at Union Market'</a></span> is next. This industrial-chic venue is a blank canvas waiting to be transformed. It's perfect for couples who want to express their creativity and style. With its high ceilings, warehouse-style windows, and 12,300 square feet of space, it can accommodate large weddings effortlessly. The best time to have a wedding here is during the fall, as the venue's design complements the season's vibrant hues.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The '<span style="color: rgb(28, 28, 225);"><a href="https://www.nationalunionbuildingdc.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Union Building</a></span>' stands third on my list. This venue is a blend of historic charm and modern sophistication. Each of its eight individual spaces tells a unique story. It's perfect for intimate weddings or grand celebrations. The venue shines during winter, providing a warm and cozy ambiance amidst the cold.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Next, we have the '<span style="color: rgb(28, 28, 225);"><a href="https://www.whitehousehistory.org/decatur-house" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Decatur House on Lafayette Square</a></span>'. This historic venue offers a blend of indoor and outdoor spaces, with a beautiful brick courtyard providing a romantic backdrop for spring and summer weddings. Its location near the White House adds to its appeal, making it perfect for couples seeking a classic DC wedding.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Finally, there's '<span style="color: rgb(28, 28, 225);"><a href="https://www.districtwinery.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" aria-invalid="true">District Winery</a></span>'. As DC's first winery, this venue provides a unique waterfront setting. Its floor-to-ceiling windows offer panoramic views of the Anacostia River, making it an ideal location for a sunset wedding. The venue is particularly striking in the fall when the surrounding foliage makes for a colorful backdrop.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Each of these venues has a unique charm that can fit different wedding styles. Whether you prefer a classic, modern, or creative wedding, you're sure to find a location that suits your taste in this list. I hope this guide helps you in your search for the perfect wedding venue in Washington DC. Remember, wherever you choose to tie the knot, I'd be honored to capture your love story.</p>
