What if your wedding photos showed how you felt, not just how you looked?

I want to learn more

My approach to wedding photography starts with understanding what—and who—matters the most to the two of you.

Then, while you’re busy snuggling in with one another, sneaking a second slice of cake, or sharing a moment with your mom, I’ll be present to document it all.

And because you can’t be everywhere at once, I’ll also capture your guests as they share in your joy—and the thoughtful experience you created for them.

Let the story of your wedding emerge in your photos.

Your wedding day experience

Less posing.
Less fussing.
More celebrating.

Wedding photography

Your family story, in photos

All the personality.
None of the
stress.

Joseph Q.

From her impeccable attention to detail to her fresh takes on age-old customs, she truly understood our vision. The result? A day that felt uniquely ‘us’. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide on this journey.

"We are absolutely over the moon."

- Melissa

Her process to prepare herself and you for the big day is both thoughtful and thorough. And her photos are stunning on top of it all!

“Kelly’s understanding of her clients needs is truly unmatched.”

More about me

You’ll often hear me say that empathy is my superpower.

If you’re thinking “Great, Kelly, but what does that have to do with wedding photography?” The answer is: everything.

Because when you hire me to photograph your wedding, you’re asking me to document what matters most to you. And I do that best when I know how to see the world through your eyes.

Meet Kelly Loss

- D and G

We couldn't be happier with the experience. From the start, she truly and carefully listened to what we wanted and clearly strived to get to know us as people and as a couple.

“We wanted our photos to capture the genuine feel of the day, and Kelly did just that — beautifully and naturally.

Let's make them count

So should the photos.

Your wedding feels exactly like, well, you.

I’m Kelly Loss, a documentary wedding photographer in Washington D.C. and northern Virginia. For over 12 years, I’ve been photographing couples who want their wedding day to feel less like a photo shoot and more like a celebration. 

By asking thoughtful questions, I’m able to capture the same meaningful moments they would have if they were the ones behind the camera.

Hi there, I'm Kelly!
