It's no coincidence that photographer Pamela Harvey's portfolio is filled with images of grinning brides and grooms, children and distant relatives frolicking in formalwear, and intimate behind-the-scenes moments just before a ceremony. One of Pamela's main reasons for doing what she does is a love for the pageantry of special events—and the family relationships on display there. Throughout Maryland, Virginia, and DC, she captures moments both playful and dignified, candid and posed, of newlyweds surrounded by their loved ones. Depending on the mood of the shoot, she can translate each image into bright color or austere black and white. Pamela's friendships with wedding caterers and DJs also benefit clients. Alternatively, Pamela can meet clients indoors—in their own homes or bridal suites—for boudoir portrait sessions showcasing their sensual sides.
