Joey was the first vendor we met with when we were planning our July 2020 wedding. From that first meeting, my now-husband and I knew he was the right choice to capture our wedding. He gave us all of the information we would need to make sure our wedding was completely covered. We discussed styles, must-have photos, timelines and products from the beginning. We met with him for engagement pictures shortly thereafter, and we loved the images he captured. My husband notoriously hates having his picture taken and our photos are so natural! In the spring of 2020, along with so many couples, we were faced with the unbelievable scenario of a worldwide pandemic. As we ultimately decided to postpone our wedding, I was worried our vendors would have prior obligations and I told my family “our photographer is the only vendor I really care about”. Joey worked with us to quickly sign a new contract and thankfully he was available to cover our new date in April. As that date approached, our fat... Read moreher in law began to lose his battle with cancer, ultimately passing away just 6 days before our wedding. Joey and Desire were so supportive, sensitive and understanding as we navigated both events simultaneously. They worked with my blended family, our grieving family, a stubborn toddler and what could have been a rainy April day (that ultimately turned into a beautiful day). Our photos are absolutely gorgeous and I will cherish them forever. Quickly after our ceremony we got a sneak peak blog with photos that told the story of our day. He even captured the picture we would ultimately use to announce our pregnancy. His professionalism and organization is unmatched, but neither compare to his ability to capture beautiful photos to remember your special day!

Working with Joey for our engagement shoot was a dream come true! From the moment we met him, we felt connected to him and the recent shoot we did proved just that. He made us feel incredibly comfortable and able to be ourselves while taking photos of us that will hang in our home for many years to come! I can't say enough good things about Joey's talent behind the camera and his ability to bring out the best in his clients in the photos he takes!

Joey, you were and absolute dream to work with. I can not tell you how much we appreciate your professionalism, outgoing personality, and attention to detail. As the mother of the bride, it was crazy time on the wedding day and I not once had to worry about what you were doing. You were awesome with the crowd, taking pictures but not getting right up in people's faces. You took a great mixture of pictures of both family and friends while still being able to capture all the important pictures of the bride and groom. I knew from your pictures on your website that you were top notch and after seeing the wedding pictures I was not disappointed one bit! Honestly, I could not have asked for better. From the bottom of my heart Joey, I thank you for the beautiful pictures you took of my daughter, son in law , and our family and friends. They are a wonderful memory off a very special moment in time for our family. My best wishes to you and it was truly an honor and a pleasure meeting you. Ke...

My mom and I met Joey at a wedding expo a little less than two years before the planned wedding date. He was so nice and he sold us right away with his personality and his work. When it came time to introduce him to my now husband, we met at a Panera and sat and chatted with him for probably two hours! Joey offered so many resources to prepare us for the big day. By the end of our meet up, we had booked Trans4mation photography and were super excited. Joey was flexible with us when scheduling our engagement shoot and he was knowledgeable when it came to suggesting ideas for where they were to take place. We decided on Federal Hill and we are so glad. The photos were BEAUTIFUL! Joey posed us and we felt pretty comfortable considering neither of us knew what to do. Fast forward to our wedding, Joey and his photography partner Orsolya were fantastic! They were prepared, professional, kind, creative, and worked well together. They were also great conversationalists with our friends and fa... Read moremilies. We’ve gotten so many stories from guests about the two of them and how they were connecting with everyone. We are currently waiting on our final photos, but Joey’s turnaround time on our sneak peek photos and blog on his website was super quick! The photos are stunning and we are so excited to see the rest, and cherish them for our lifetime! Thank you Trans4formation photography, we are forever grateful!

My new husband and I cannot begin to tell you how awesome Joey was to work with! Joey covered our wedding and engagement photos. Not only are the quality of his pictures amazing, but he is remarkably thoughtful and methodical in planning out your event. On my wedding day, the weather changed several times throughout the day, from sunshine to rain to hail to sunshine, to more rain, and still Joey was able to capture beautiful photos. I am also positive that without Joey's careful planning, my wedding would not have ran on time. He gently guided us through getting ready photos, first looks, ceremony, portraits, etc, ensuring that we had time to capture everything that we had planned. Post wedding, he quickly gets to work in providing sneak peak photos, and we have received so many compliments on his work. He captured our day perfectly, and we highly recommend him!

I can’t recommend Joey enough, he deserves more than 5 stars!! From the moment I first had interest in his work, he reached out & was very professional, detailed & organized. We had our first interaction through a video call due to the pandemic, Joey walked us through every aspect of what we would expect from him.

I had my first interaction with Joey right before the pandemic hit and shut the world down. From the first time I met him I knew we were making the right decision to have him and his team capture our day. Joey is very detailed oriented and takes the time to provide a planning checklist to make sure all your expectations and things that are important to you are documented and captured. Communication lines were always open when we needed to talk, especially through all of the COVID restrictions. I could not recommend Joey and his team any more. The day was a dream come true and I will forever have all the beautiful photos him and his team captured to look back on.

Joey is a delight. Very organized and responsive and follows up. Excited to have hired him to photograph our big day.

Joey and the group at Trans4Mation photography were amazing from our first meeting, to now! The amount of time Joey spends with his clients, and getting to know his clients is an extremely special experience. Joey pays special attention to the small details, and to the big details as well. He was always on time, and professional! Joey and his second photographer, Desirae, were amazing the day of our wedding- Desirae even helped fix my hair when it was falling out! Trans4mation goes above and beyond, and we are SO happy we chose them. Even through the pandemic, and the hassle of rescheduling, Joey made it work, at no extra cost. We thank Joey and Trans4Mation photography for our BEAUTIFUL wedding pictures!

From our first interaction with Joey, we had such a smooth process! He is so organized down to his planning checklist. He makes sure that each step from engagement pictures down to the first look is exactly what you are looking for! He is very helpful in providing direction for those of us who aren't models for posed and non-posed pictures to make sure he captures the perfect moments. He was also very communicative throughout the entire COVID process to make sure each of his clients was not in the dark! Our day would not have been complete without Joey! Book him now!!

My wife Jaime and I were blown away at the level of service, detail, and professionalism offered by Joey and his team for our August 2020 wedding at Mountain Branch Golf Club in Joppa, MD. Challenging would be an understatement, and Joey never missed a beat. Despite everything going on and all of our requests, concerns and worries, Joey was always super helpful and responsive. He was always a phone call, video chat, or text away. He truly felt like an extension of our planning and I cannot thank him enough. The quality of his photography is absolutely top-notch. My father has been a photojournalist for over 50 years, and I was determined to find a wedding photographer that my dad would be impressed by. I did NOT want my dad taking the photo's at our wedding, so finding someone who knew their stuff was very important. Both during the wedding and also when we got the photos, my dad reached out to tell me how impressed he was by the quality of the images. Success! We found Joey's... Read more wedding packages to be very reasonably priced given the level of quality we received. Your search for a wedding photographer in Annapolis or Baltimore stops and ends here. I should also add that his assistant, Samantha, was an absolute pleasure to work with and gave us the consistency that you would hope for in having a second photographer at the event. I hope to cross paths with Joey again in the future and will be recommending him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

Flexibility, friendliness, professionalism, and great service are how I would describe Joey. The passion Joey has for photography was evident from our first consultation meeting with him. Everything he brought to the meeting was professionally organized and my husband and I felt very happy with every option we selected for our contract. We had originally planned to marry in Annapolis on May 1st, but COVID19 restrictions made us put the brakes on for a spring wedding. Four rounds of letters and three date changes later, we finally celebrated our wedding at the Annapolis Maritime Museum (AMM) on August 22nd. Joey was fantastic to work with through it all. We were extremely appreciative for the flexibility and care he showed us as we navigated through each date and venue change. He even went above and beyond to help us with the zoom call so our virtual guests could participate. We had just planned on tech support for guests if they needed it, but he and Samantha went above and beyond b... Read morey moving the iPad with the zoom call throughout the venue. Our virtual guests told us that it felt like being there! We recently received our pictures from the wedding and they're perfect. We highly recommend Joey and Trans4mation Photography for any event!

We are so thankful we chose Joey to be our photographer. We have spent some time with Joey now since COVID impacted our original date, but he personally canceled his vacation to participate in our wedding. If that doesn't show you how committed he is I don’t know what does. We had a large bridal party and he was able to keep everyone focused!!! He directed everyone and it made the day so easy. The photos are jaw dropping. There are so many to choose from that we love! He even capture a bunch of our guests, which was a nice touch. Highly recommend! He's worth the price. If i have learned anything, don’t go cheap on photography look at their artistic ability.
