As satisfied clients of Joshua Fernandez, my husband and I would recommend that you look no further in your wedding photographer search. It was surprising to me, but finding the right photographer was one of the most challenging vendor choices as we planned our wedding. Meeting someone with the photographic eye that matches your style and who you don't mind spending hours on end with is tough enough, and then you have to add in all the other complexities: packages, pricing, file delivery modes - the list goes on! I was nervous that we would not find someone who "fit" us until we met Josh. These are the key strengths I would offer about him, but they are truly only a few: RESPONSIVENESS: I immediately knew that we were in for a good experience when Josh responded to my inquiry email within 3 hours (many of the brides and grooms out there probably appreciate how rare that is). Josh maintained this level of responsiveness throughout our entire engagement and leading up to our w... Read moreedding day - he would always respond to a text or email promptly, which put my mind at ease. FLEXIBILITY - Josh was also great to work with because of his flexibility. He was always willing to provide suggestions and outline his vision for a shoot, but was equally as interested in hearing from us as a couple and adjusting accordingly. It was truly a photographic partnership that enabled his creativity as well as our desired outcomes. SIMPLICITY - I was fed up with going line-by-line through photography packages and a-la-carte options. Josh's wedding pricing was all straight forward and simple, and he delivers all the photos digitally. STYLE - The DC market is saturated with photographers. I believe another aspect that makes Josh so distinctive is his creative and unique eye. He clearly possesses technical skill, but I believe also possesses a rare talent for capturing intimate moments. We were searching for someone who was able to capture more candid photos, and we were not disappointed (neither were our friends and family, who constantly praise Josh's work as they see it). For all those reasons and more, we would highly recommend Josh Fernadez's services - he is truly a pleasure to work with and someone who captured memorable moments of our engagement and wedding. Thank you, Josh!

My sisters and I took photos with Joshua to send to our mother, and he made the whole experience so simple and fun! He gave great direction, was easy to talk to, and the final photos are gorgeous. You'll love both the experience and the final product with Joshua!

Joshua was just amazing, so friendly and great to work with. Very flexible with my schedule and had awesome ideas for the shoot. Was just a blast the entire time and I can not wait to shoot with him again!!!

Josh was incredible to work with. He was an integral piece to a perfectly planned proposal. I was new to the city amidst the backdrop of the pandemic with nobody in my inner circle to help me plan. Josh not only helped me dream up the perfect idea but was in constant contact all the way up to the night of the proposal. He pretended to be a tour guide (part of the plan) and my partner could not have been more surprised. I highly recommend him for any of your photography needs, but he certainly stands out for a surprise proposal photographer. He was kind, gracious, patient, and supportive all the way through. He calmed my nerves and let me trust in the process. I wouldn't have changed a thing! Thanks so much, Josh. You helped create a night we'll never forget!

Josh was responsive, flexible, and easy to work with. I got the photos I needed; they were professional; and Josh's price was better than others.

I've been working with Josh for the past two years. He shoots for my blog, my company headshot, and hopefully my engagement photos (shoot will be soon). He is flexible if the weather is going to be bad and you want to shoot outside. He will help you on your creative vision and he will bring to life the aesthetic and vision board of your dreams!

Josh was great! He was professional and the photo's speak for themselves. I wasn't the one who organized it so I was on the other end of it, but he was very stealthy and cared a lot about making it a special experience for the both of us. He scoped out the area before and found beautiful locations to for us to take pictures. I would recommend Josh to anyone!

First off, working with Josh was AWESOME!! We had our photos with him this past Sunday, 11/22/20. I was someone who was very skeptical of getting engagement photos to begin with because I felt like so much of what I had seen just seemed cheesy and super staged. Additionally, my fiancé and I typically do not like having our picture taken. After a friend told me about Josh and after I viewed his work I knew it was the right fit. For us his photos had the warm, non-staged vibe we were hoping for. After our initial facetime, we felt even more comfortable, and once we met up and the photo shoot began Josh really made us feel comfortable having our pictures taken. Rather than just making us pose he had us have normal conversations between ourselves to catch photos of us naturally smiling and laughing together. We had so much fun working with him and are thrilled with how our two preview shots came out (super excited to see the rest!) I wasn't planning on using these photos for our save the ... Read moredates, but I think I may change my mind. I think it is also important to note, considering COVID-19 is happening right now, that Josh took all precautions by wearing a mask and always keeping a safe distance from us. I highly recommend booking your engagement/wedding photos with Josh!

Josh was great! I hate being in the spotlight but his laid back attitude, clear directions, and jokes immediately put me at ease. I never thought I would enjoy a photo session but with Josh I did!

I feel truly lucky to have met Josh. It is not often you meet someone with so much care to give you the experience you are looking for. I am very happy Josh shot our engagement photos and has now shot my maternity shoot. My husband and I were devastated to have to cancel our ceremony because of the pandemic but I am still so grateful to have these new memories of the start of our little family. I can't wait to show my son these photos when he gets older

The shoot was Josh was wonderful! He was collaborative, professional, and flexible with scheduling. I’ve already recommended him to a friend!

Josh worked with me on a personal branding photo shoot and was very easy to work with. He was very flexible when we needed to reschedule and was able to offer recommendations on venue, time of day, and poses. His expertise was apparent during the shoot when making the subject feel at ease by guiding her through different poses and selecting additional nearby backdrops. I would highly recommend this experienced photographer for your next people-focused shoot.

At first I was a nervous to take pictures for our wedding invitations because I knew the photos would last forever. But Joshua Fernandez quickly melted my frozen nerves with his warm smile positive enthusiasm. His personable attitude connected with my family and I, making it more comfortable to take photos. And his professional courtesy ensured that he would get the job done efficiently. I was emotionally moved when I recieved the finished photos, because not only did they look great! But I know when I am having a bad day, I can look back at these pictures and relive joyous moments.

Josh is such a talented photographer! I’ve worked with him several times, and each time has been a pleasure. He is prompt in responding to emails and texts and works with you to craft the right look for the shoot. He has a wonderful vision and makes you feel right at ease on the day of the shoot. I would recommend him to anyone!
