Washington, DC Photographer
Capturing the Most Important Memories for My Clients.
You Found Me! Thanks For Taking a Look at My Work!
I’m Brandon Templar, a photojournalistic wedding, engagement, & family photographer in Washington, D.C. I work with clients who crave candid & spirited images and want their photography to be effortless. My work focuses on the in-between moments, where our personalities peek through.
Wedding days roar by, and your photos will live on to tell your story.
Weddings are a creative playground for me, to create stunning images of your unique day. I love all the big moments but in my opinion, the most beautiful moments are the candid glimpses between the big moments. My work strives to provoke that from my subjects, to create a beautiful and candid approach to your wedding day. My clients want to remember the way they felt, not all the goofy poses.
Creating Beautiful, Intimate Images of LGBTQ Couples in Love.
I love the LGBTQ community! As a member myself, I strive to create a safe space for all my couples to be themselves. I became a photographer because I was tired of seeing LGBTQ couples posed like they are siblings, or friends who happen to hold hands.
To make beautiful, intimate images of LGBTQ couples, photographers need to leave their traditional toolkit behind. So much of wedding posing relies on a masculine and feminine gender role. Specializing in LGBTQ weddings, I have photographed many community members. Visit my LGBTQ Weddings page to see a custom experience made for you.
Creating Images of Couples in Love, in the Nation’s Capital & Beyond.
Engagement sessions are a gorgeous session meant to compliment your wedding images. This session is an opportunity to practice for your wedding day, while scoring beautiful images along the way.
Immortalize Your Surprise Proposal
Surprise proposal sessions are a fantastic way for the proposer to book a photographer to capture the event and then have a quick portrait session following. A few hours later, you’ll have a gallery of beautiful images to share your announcement with the world.
On-Site Sessions of Your Family in Their Element
My sessions encourage your family to be themselves. With a focus on having these sessions on-site, we ditch the traditional stuffy studios of our own childhoods. Instead, these sessions are focused on creating beautiful images of each family member, in their element.
It’s not just about making images, but also about working with real people.
I pride myself on creating sessions that are easy, fun, and light-hearted. I’m so thrilled past clients have good things to say about me.
