Victoria Selman Photographer

ral and had us laughing the entire time!! She was so accommodating with my non-flexible schedule and I’m still in awe of the pictures. I sent her a Pinterest board and she NAILED IT so perfectly! She is seriously the nicest person and her positive energy made the session so enjoyable! I cannot recommend her enough!

s and would likely need a lot of direction because we’re awkward lol. Victoria made us instantly comfortable during our engagement shoot and we had so much fun!! It felt absolutely effortless and our pictures turned out amazing! Fast forward to planning a wedding during the covid pandemic.. Victoria was nothing but kind and accommodating when we decided to postpone our big wedding to 2021. We ended up going through with an intimate ceremony on our original date (10/24/2020 — with plans of doing our big ceremony and reception in 2021) and booking Victoria for her elopement package. She helped with EVERYTHING from timeline to letting me bounce decor ideas off her. Everyone present for our little wedding commented on how wonderful she is. Her work speaks for itself, but Victoria is truly a gem inside and out. Easily the best decision and investment we have made for our wedding (both 2020 and 2021!) it’s like working with a best friend you never knew you had!

and Victoria worked hard with us to figure out the perfect photography solution for our June 13th intimate wedding! And boy did she deliver! I am insanely happy with how our wedding photos turned out. Everyone who I've shared them with has mentioned Victoria's talent. We had a blast taking pictures with her, too! Even my husband who despises getting his picture taken had fun! Victoria has such an incredible and unique way of making people feel comfortable in front of the camera and it definitely shows in her work. I rave about her and these pictures to literally anyone who will listen. She are truly the best and I am so thankful that this worked out. BONUS! I get to hang out with her again in September 2021 for our sequel wedding! Nothing but love for this incredible artist.

rd and this random photographer isn't doing anything to help? Well this was NOT the case with Victoria. We had the pleasure of watching Victoria work at our friend's wedding last summer and knew that we needed to have her at ours. As stated on her website, Victoria is incredibly 'chill' and fun to work with. She made my wife and I feel completely comfortable on our wedding day and she was able to round up our wild families and breeze through family photos in under 30 minutes. Speaking of speed, we received our pictures five days after our ceremony (and Victoria went on vacation the day after our wedding!!). I can't express how much we loved having Victoria at our wedding. She's a gem, hire her.

mperative asset for all vendor recommendations. Fast forward to the wedding, the minute they walked in the door everything was FLAWLESS. They captured my vision, my details, our bridal party, and our love, perfectly. Not to mention, they were so fun to be around. I am blown away by their work, I have my previews within 36 hours, and there was edited previews displayed at the reception. I can't thank her and her husband enough!

. Our family and friends have shown our pictures to everyone they know and even people they don't ! Victoria and her husband Hunter are incredible people and amazing to work with- we can not speak highly enough of these two. They catch the most intimate and candid moments and make a story out of your day. Never a dull moment and we have gained not only amazing life memories with Victoria but lifelong friends!

se incredible humans. Our wedding photos are everything we imagined and more. From the first time we met Victoria at a coffee shop, we knew right away that we wanted to be best friends with her, although I’m sure everyone that meets her feels the same. We met Hunter for the first time on our wedding day, but it felt like catching up with an old friend. They both have an incredible aesthetic – even our engagement photos with Victoria were pure magic! We didn’t even bother looking any further with our search for a wedding photographer. They were our first and last choice. Do yourself a favor, look through some of their photos on Victoria’s website and see for yourself. Victoria also had ALL our wedding photos to us much sooner than expected! And they look AMAZING.

of when planning our nuptials. Not only are Victoria & Hunter’s photography skills absolutely on point, but they brought an aura of tranquility, and vivaciousness, to the big day. Victoria was extremely professional and punctual. She captured both the details and overall essence of the day. We are so grateful that we can now cherish these high-quality (in both resolution & love) images forever. Thank you Victoria & Hunter!!

y of someone who I would want to spend the most important day of my life with - because, besides your (future)spouse, you spend more of your day with your photographer than anyone else, so you want to make sure that you like hanging out with them! After interviewing Victoria, I knew she was "the one"! She has an easy-going, fun personality and kept my nerves at ease all day. She maintained the pace of the day (which is CRITICAL for a wedding!) and kept my husband and I laughing and feeling less-awkward during the shoots as neither of us are exactly comfortable having our photos taken! And her work is amazing, I had friends tell me that our photos were the best they have ever seen - and quite frankly I agree! :) I would highly recommend Victoria and Hunter to anyone!

an Photography was recommended to me by a friend and after looking at about five photos on her instagram I knew she was exactly what we were looking for. The Skype consultation with Victoria only confirmed that they were the best for us. I was so sold. We clicked and I knew we were in good hands. My husband was still a little hesitant. We were a little nervous about having our photos taken since we don't normally have an occasion or a person around to take many photos of us. We planned to do our engagement photos when we were visiting my parents for the weekend. Victoria fit us in no problem and made the engagement photo session so unbelievably easy. No forced or awkward poses. And she was on board for us to bring our crazy Goldendoodle puppy with us. I couldn't believe it. It was just us hanging out with Victoria. My husband walked away saying how much fun he had and that he was excited for the wedding. LIKE WHAT. Victoria and Hunter to no surprise, pulled it off again on our wedding day. They are so laid back and encouraged us to be ourselves. As goofy and silly as we wanted to be. I had heard horror stories from friends who were married just before us that their photographer kept pulling them away from their friends and family during the reception to get the perfect shot. That was a big no for us and Victoria and Hunter were amazing with sticking to our schedule/plan and just going with the flow. They were able to capture the fun without making it forced. If you want photographers who support your vision, will make it a fun experience and are the some of the coolest people you will ever meet, look no further. Victoria and Hunter are the best. We love them. xo

ng process and decided to elope. We immediately fell in love with Victoria’s work as we perused her instagram page. I sent Victoria a message and within 10 minutes we were on the phone. From the moment I spoke to her I felt all the stress and anxiety leave. We got married in Sedona, AZ 5 weeks later. The day was perfect and would not have been possible without Victoria. We are so pleased with our pictures, and cannot thank Victoria enough. Victoria captures love as the adventure it is, not just a posed picture. I look at our photographs daily and continue to receive endless compliments on them! I recommend Victoria Selman Photographer not just for her authentic, gorgeous photography but as a real life, down to earth, person that happens to be the best photographer out there!

ectations in a wedding photographer were perhaps impossible to meet. Enter Victoria Selman Photography, who we hired on the spot. Victoria and Hunter’s work speaks for itself, and you get the bonus of having two genuinely beautiful humans with unlimited charisma on board to document your special day. The thoughtfulness and professionalism of the two is inspiring. They have a way about always being situated in the right places- for the big focal moments, the silly candid ones, and all of the magical whisperings that gently precipitate throughout. They could build rapport with a stone, and probably get it to smile. The robust collection of images they captured and promptly delivered to us are lovingly admired on a daily basis. Not only were our expectations met, they were exceeded, and it felt like we made a few friends along the way.

g our New Jersey wedding from Nashville and Victoria could not have made it easier to do so. She was flexible with phone call times that fit our schedules, had a user-friendly online system for tracking payments and our conversations and was prompt in all of her replies to any questions we had. It was clear from our first facetime that Victoria was going to be the exact calm and experienced presence we needed on our wedding day. I essentially told Victoria I don’t know how this all works; what’s a good timeline? Where should portraits be? (+ a million more questions). Her experience and expertise put us completely at ease, knowing the whole day would be handled. She not only followed through on this but exceeded our expectations in every way. Her and her husband Hunter are the perfect duo, working efficiently in such a relaxed way, never rushing or making us stress. They treated us as friends and we felt they were truly invested in capturing our day in the most special way. Our family and friends could not get over how perfect our photos were and I smile every time I look at them in our home. You will not meet more genuine people who love what they do—go book ‘em because they’re the real deal!!

er 20 years learning the ins and outs. Victoria is the absolute most empathetic, kind, thoughtful person I've met in the wedding industry and quite possibly on this earth. From the beginning, she was helpful, sincere, and hysterical as we planned out our engagement shoot and wedding logistics. Whether it a package of homemade soap or inspiration emails, she was a more personalized and wonderful version of Pinterest. When it came to our wedding day, she was able to navigate my large, blended family, nail every shot IN THE RAIN, all the while telling corny jokes, and dancing the night away. I truly felt like I had an old friend with me throughout the entire experience. Her second shooter, Hunter, is her photography (and real life!) soulmate. As a married couple, they work so incredibly well together and are able to capture the most beautiful moments. Hunter was amazing with the groomsmen, making everyone feel comfortable and natural. Plus, he has great taste in music! Victoria sent our entire wedding pictures, completely edited, in record time. She knows how to capture and highlight every moment genuinely. Finally, a few months after our wedding, my younger brother passed away. Victoria dug up some old photos of him and sent them our way. I've never met anyone as thoughtful as her, truly. This was the easiest and best decision of my wedding planning. Forever thankful for you, Victoria!

know exactly the kind of photos you're looking for, and are so adaptable to your setting. I'm so happy to have them photograph our special day. 2 years later and I still love each of our cherished photos. Victoria really knows exactly what to do to make you feel as special as you possibly could for your wedding day. You won't regret hiring them for your special day!

eractions are remarkable! They played the biggest part in making our wedding day proceed without a hitch and capturing memories that will last a lifetime. From the very start of our interactions when searching for a photographer, until our photos were delivered, they have been effective, efficient and incredibly skilled. I could not recommend a photographer more for clients- if your cup of tea is stellar people with incredible skill, they are the people to capture your wedding. -Karly and Ray Zacharski

ce, customer service, and always had the answer to my millions of questions about the wedding day timeline. I found her via instagram and fell in love with her organic photography style and knew it would be perfect for our woodsy wedding. Victoria and Hunter were such a calming and welcome presence for me and my husband on our wedding day. Neither of us love being in front of the camera but they made us very comfortable and we had a blast while taking our portraits. I've gotten so many compliments about the photography and I would absolutely hire Victoria again and again. Our photos are stunning and something we will treasure forever.

ect of engagement photos and every step of the wedding day run smoothly and completely stress free. She also made every photo taking experience fun! We never felt awkward in front of the camera and taking photos was a blast! Her work is absolutely amazing, we loved every single picture and received so many compliments from family and friends! I had requested that we get some goofy fun photos of the wedding party and Victoria came up with the coolest idea of forming a dance line and taking pictures of us all dancing, laughing, and joking around. I absolutely love her creativity and willingness to help capture your wedding day exactly as you want it. Victoria and her husband Hunter were amazing to work with and I highly recommend them to anyone!

ic and ability to capture both minute detail and the big picture joy of the occasion. Their photography was far and away the best investment of our wedding weekend. We are not usually comfortable in front of a camera, but they made us laugh and feel completely at ease. We cannot recommend them enough!

rk with. It was very important to my husband and I to really live the day and not feel like we were being held for pictures, and Victoria and Hunter made this happen. They captured every detail and magical moment from the big day, including so many details that we missed on the day off. We highly, highly recommend Victoria and Hunter! The absolute best!

They have a way of making you feel comfortable, even when you're having professional photos taken of you, not something you do everyday! Many of our friends have asked about them and I can't say enough to explain how great they are. We would recommend Victoria and Hunter to anyone looking to get wonderful pictures of a special event!

tations! She was so good at making us feel comfortable and encouraged us to just be ourselves, nothing ever felt posed or restricted in any way. On our wedding day, her and Hunter went above and beyond in so many ways and they work so well together that I never once felt "over" taking pictures - it was a blast with them the entire time! Not only is Victoria an incredible artist, she is an incredibly professional, down to earth, and fun human being. You cannot find a better photographer in the DC/MD/VA area.

felt like I have known her forever. I loved her natural, organic, outdoorsy style - makes for timeless photos. And the fact that she is an awesome person is a double bonus. She turns all photo sessions into a ton of fun, letting your personalities shine through the photos. Victoria and her husband Hunter are photographic rock stars!! They were truly a dream to work with and we couldn't be happier with how our photo memories turned out. Thanks a million for making me the happiest, prettiest bride.

only were they super responsive, helping me with all my questions, but we also got our photos back super quick, which I was very impressed with. I highly recommend these two as apart of your wedding team

was our engagement shoot included, but she was hyper response and fun with everything. Plus her and Hunter were absolutely wonderful in planning and completing everything we needed on our wedding day. Our photos are absolutely beautiful and she takes such care with everything she does. If you're getting married, you simply must book with Victoria!

rever! They were very helpful when planning what photos to take where/when, and were able to work around the fact that we didn't want to do a "first look" which makes things tighter on the big day. I planned our wedding remotely from San Antonio, TX which made my overall logistics more difficult, however Victoria was so easy to work with! Victoria and Hunter were such a fun, yet calming energy all throughout my wedding day, and helped us make sure we got photos of the people and groupings which were important to us, as well as some AMAZING candid shots. I am usually a bit self-conscious in photos and tend to only like 1 or 2 of a set of photos of me.. with Victoria and Hunter's shots I can't find one I don't love! Every time I open them up to show someone a photo, I get transported right back into the emotions of the day, and can't stop looking through all of the pics! highly recommend working with this wonderful duo - look no further!!

ecial moment of our day. We received our photos faster than expected and her website made it easy to download and save the file. We feel extremely lucky we found such a wonderful and kind soul to document our special day. Don't think twice....book her!!!!!

un and creative, communicating via e-mail was quick and efficient, and the wedding day photos were perfect. Victoria got my photos ready for us within days after our wedding! I definitely recommend these guys and I promise they are worth every penny!

and 'natural' feel, and not only did they understand 100% what we were going for, but they were also amazing to work with. The day of, I had a difficult morning realizing we had to move our beach wedding indoors because of rain, and I could never thank Victoria and Hunter enough for being absolutely wonderful and unbelievably helpful and comforting during a stressful beginning to our wedding day. Victoria had some magical way of keeping things light and fun, and made me feel excited, beautiful and ready when I needed it most. She is seriously a ray of sunshine. Of course, the photos were stunning and delivered quickly, and I got so many compliments on what a pleasant and subtle presence they were for our guests. Victoria and Hunter are two absolutely awesome people that happen to also be great at what they do. And, while they are spotlessly professional, they are so adorable and charming together it makes them perfect for a wedding shoot. We feel so, so fortunate to have had them capture our big day. My only regret - not keeping them through the end of the reception. The standard package we selected didn't cover the last hour or so of the wedding and, in retrospect, I wish we had thought of extending their time with us.

Victoria we decided to go for it. She was SO easy to work with and the photos are gorgeous! On top of everything, they were an absolute pleasure to have at our wedding. I barely saw them except when we were having our photos taken (no cameras in our faces as we said our vows) but apparently they were everywhere because they got great pictures of everything. Also, my dress broke as soon as the ceremony ended and Victoria spent all night conjuring safety pins out of thin air to keep my straps together. I cannot recommend these two more highly.

ife and in work. Can't speak highly enough about them and their work... I'm sure that was tough to tell. All in all, hire Victoria. Yo won't be sorry, she is so talented and it will make your event/year/memories so special for years to come. Thank you Victoria! (+ Hunter!) .

photography style appealed to us. From the initial contract conversation to the wedding day, Victoria was such a responsive and warm vendor, making sure that all our questions were answered and that we felt comfortable with the camera. We had a lot of fun with them taking family and wedding party photos on the day and that ease shows in the images! They captured every detail perfectly and were able to snap some wonderful candids of our friends and family. We would heartily recommend Victoria to anyone looking for gorgeous images of your big day!

a and Hunter are very down to earth, easy going people, who make it hard to keep a straight face when around them. My husband and I could not be happier with both our engagement and wedding photos! Absolutely stunning photo's without too much editing! Cheers to you both, you guys are great!

. Her and Hunter were so much fun to work with, and we are so happy they both were a part of our day. The pictures came out absolutely stunning, and we are so excited to share them with our friends and family. It truly felt like we were working with a very professional set of our best friends. I would recommend them over and over again to anyone looking for very high quality work and a fun experience!

t with us several times before the wedding to make sure she understood completely what was important to us, what our vision for the wedding was, and how we worked together. At first we didn't think that we wanted an engagement photoshoot, because we had gotten engaged months before and have great photos of the actual proposal, but we were SO glad we did it! We enjoyed getting to know Victoria better before the wedding, and she had us laughing the entire time - it was a super fun day! And the pictures are phenomenal. Neither of us had gotten professional pictures taken before, so it was really good to have that experience before the wedding day because it can be awkward, and it was good to know that even if it feels weird to follow directions (to look where the photographer wants and smile/look serious/etc. ) the pictures were unbeatable! Day-of the wedding, Victoria and Hunter arrived right on time, about an hour before the bridal party was ready to head to the chapel, to take photos of the gettting-ready process, the details, and all of the ladies! Throughout the day, they were a pleasure to work with, and made us laugh and feel comfortable. When the photos arrived, we were totally stunned! They took the most wonderful, crazy-chaotic, whirlwind of a day and captured all of it perfectly! Every picture is gorgeous, and they got so many of the little things that we carefully planned but were too busy to take the time to focus on - for example, people playing lawn games and watching the ships in Chesapeake bay, and people sitting and chatting with old and new friends. Additionally, Victoria uses a website called Honeybook to keep track of all of the payments and paperwork, which streamlines the process and makes it really easy and convenient. Everything about working with with Victoria and Hunter was better than I ever could have imagined!

had 2 of our friends capturing our big day. Not to mention the pictures were amazing! It was incredible how they were able to capture the feeling of the day through the photographs, and we loved how natural they came out. We can’t stop going back and reliving the day through their images—truly could not have asked for a more beautiful way to remember our wedding! Victoria & Hunter far exceeded our expectations, and I cannot recommend them enough!

ecial moment, but also create beauty we could not have even imagined. From portraits to details to going wayyyyy beyond the extra mile- I am so thankful for such an amazing team.

cause the more we spoke with her, we learned that not only would she be a professional and highly-competent artist, but she would also be an encouraging friend. Finding the right photographer was so important to us, seeing as this would be the only tangible piece from our wedding that we would have to remember it by​.​ When we looked at her work we were captivated by the way she captured these small, powerful moments of love. When Victoria shoots, she has an eye for beauty, for truth, and hope. Her end-product for us left us breathless, and will never cease to amaze us as we reflect on them the rest of our lives. I can't recommended her services enough - for those who are able to book her - count yourself extremely lucky! It will be the best decision you ever made.

ng photos ever, just like we did! We found Victoria and Hunter (V+H) because they had shot my brother’s best friend’s wedding earlier this year. Obviously, the first thing we did was reviewed her online galleries. There’s really no point to me reviewing this part because anyone with eyeballs can see that she takes amazing, top-notch, 100%, take-my-breath-away pictures. After trading a few wonderful emails, we “met” V+H over Skype (we live 90 minutes apart, which is very sad). The connection was instant and after an hour, we were BFFs. My wife and I knew we wanted a personal connection with our vendors, especially with our photographers. With V+H we got that and so much more! They are some of the friendliest, easy-going, personable, and fun people we’ve ever met. Their passion for their craft really shines through. We knew before we even signed the contract that V+H were exactly what we were looking for. Our engagement shoot (included in the package) was a blast – we loved meeting Victoria in person and getting to explore Annapolis. We brought our son (aka Chase, our dog) along because he’s quite handsome and very photogenic. Victoria, unbeknownst to us, had already arranged to have a friend join us to babysit him while he wasn’t involved in the shots. What a pro! We were thrilled to see them on our wedding day, and it was exactly what we expected. V+H provided the perfect balance of “telling us what to do” (which we told them to do) and letting us call the shots. To start, Hunter met with the fellas and Victoria met with the ladies for detail shots. Later, they arranged some beautiful shots for the family and the bridal party and captured our reception perfectly. We were so sad when they had to leave at the end of the night. Our pictures are amazing and we could not be happier. Thank you V+H!

had the wonderful privilege of having Victoria shoot my engagement (I had no idea she was there), engagement photos and wedding. For our engagement shoot, she turned our coffee shop experience into not only getting coffee but also a part of our photo shoot. Where we thought we were getting coffee, she would take pictures of us, not in a pose, not expected just as we are. She also has wonderful suggestions, for example, I had next to no idea what to wear for my engagement and she gave my husband and I great suggestions of wearing layers and being able to take off our jackets or sweaters or leave them on. I thought this is a wonderful suggestion because I don't have to worry about bringing outfits, I wore one and went from there. She did a great job at getting our engagement photos back in a reasonable time. I never had to ask when they were coming, she is very organized and good at keeping her clients in the loop. I absolutely love how Victoria edits her photos! The ones we received from the wedding were stunning and not because we were in there but because of her ability to shoot a perfect picture. She did a wonderful job at getting our wedding photos back to us in a timely manner as well, it was great being able to see our photos in a short amount of time instead of months after we were married. I also appreciated her way of sharing our photos, through a link she gave us with such beautiful and high quality photos. I appreciate Victoria's passion for photography because it has allowed me to have memories of a lifetime by her capturing our wedding day.

ills turn it into something romantically beautiful. They captured our wedding, and far exceeded all our expectations. James and I could not be happier with the way our photos turned out. As we scroll through our photographs, we are amazed, both Victoria and Hunter prove again, and again, that they have such a unique gift, or if you will, a calling to capture any and all precious moments that you would like to treasure for a lifetime. I know I certainly will always treasure mine! And if that is not enough, they not only produce quality images, but are top notch quality people. They are so fun loving, flexible, and easy to work with, and they don't miss a thing!! They helped us create a super relaxed atmosphere and made our day stress-free! They will not only meet, but far exceed your expectations EVERY time - I cannot thank you both enough!
