You want photos that feel like you — not stiff poses or awkward prom hands — but real moments.

Wind-tangled veils. Teary parents. Champagne fizz. The split second before the kiss when the whole world holds its breath.

We’re Olea & Co — a husband-and-wife, veteran-owned photography team based in Southern Maryland and serving Maryland, Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia, and beyond. We specialize in storytelling wedding photography that’s emotional, reverent when it matters, and joyfully unhinged when the dance floor opens.

From weddings at historic churches in Southern Maryland to vineyard celebrations in Loudoun County, Catholic nuptial Masses, backyard I-do’s, waterfront estates on the Chesapeake, historic D.C. rooftops and everything in between — we’re there documenting the loud laughs, quiet prayers, salsa-dancing tías and those sacred in-between moments most people miss.

This page is a collection of real wedding galleries — not styled shoots, not Pinterest fantasies — but real people in love. Click through a few. Notice the way they look at each other. Imagine yourself there.

If that makes your heart flutter just a little — you’re in the right place.
