D Bryant Photography

Don and Jill did such a fabulous job capturing so many wonderful moments on our wedding day. It's so much fun to look through the pictures because now I get to see moments I missed on the big day and relive the others. They were a joy to work with throughout the whole process - easy communication via email, always had good ideas without being pushy, and perfect service on the wedding day. Engagement photo session was fun too, even for the groom! Booking D Bryant is an absolute must!

D. Bryant Photogrpahy did an AMAZING job at our wedding. They are professional, responsive, and are simply great people to work with. The pictures that they captured were absolutely beautiful. When we met with Don he told us that the pictures he takes will tell "our story". He was so right - he and his wife Jill did exactly that. When we look at our pictures now, it is like walking through the day over and over again. That feeling is priceless. As I said both Don and Jill are genuine people who enjoy the work that they do! I would highly recommend D. Bryant Photography!!!

Don is fantastic!!! Takes beautiful pictures and always finds great lighting!!!

Don and his wife Jill were fantastic to work with. The pictures could not be more beautiful. Every family and friend who has viewed the pictures has commented on Don's work. He brings his approach as an artist to the wedding, so that you get all of the must-have shots, but they are done in a way that is unique and classic - all at the same time. Don was also extremely quick in sharing pictures with us. We had a 2 and a half minute video montage to share with friends and family within days after the wedding. The final pictures became available while we were still on our honeymoon! Lots of my friends who are already married commented on how quickly we got our pictures.

D Bryant Photography was AMAZING! Don took our engagement and wedding photos, and we are thrilled! Friends and family had a preview of our photos at our wedding, and they could not wait to see the final product. Don and his wife were there for our wedding, and the pictures are flawless. If you are looking for a fun, and gorgeous angle for your photos, pick D Bryant Photography! You're gonna love it!

Amazing. Stunning. Glorious. Insert your own favorite superlative. HIRE D BRYANT PHOTOGRAPHY! So easy to work with, so responsive to requests and suggestions, so worth every penny. Granted, he had good material to work with (grin), but holy smokes, I have never seen such spectacular photographs that are stunning visually AND capture the essence of the people being photographed. You will not only not be disappointed, you will be amazed. And more, you will have images that will instantly and forever evoke memories of your special day. I can not stop looking at his work.

Let me just say this; Don is the definition of an artistic genius. Don and his wife Jill are absolutely fabulous. Brides, look no further than D. Bryant Photography for your special day. Don is absolutely the photographer you want! From D.Bryant’s website, to our initial meeting, to the wedding day, Don’s professionalism and excitement to be a part of our special day never wavered. Don and Jill are an awesome team; keeping the mood light and their enthusiasm and energy is infectious. They exude such positive vibes throughout the entire day, and they really make you feel like a movie star. The photos speak for themselves. My husband and I, and our families, couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much for capturing our day so beautifully and perfectly.

THIS IS THE TEAM YOU WANT!!! One word describes Don as a photographer…amazing. When we were looking into photographers we wanted someone who could create dramatic affects with lighting and Don nailed it on the head. Don and his fantastic wife came to our event well prepared and full of energy. Despite all the obstacles that we could throw at them they handled everything with flying colors and always had a positive attitude which continued throughout the long day. Don’s photos speak for themselves but it was him and his wife’s personality that really put them over the top. They were extremely enthusiastic and energetic and we would highly recommend them for any event. Most importantly, they are absolutely PASSIONATE about photography and deliver a truly fantastic product!!! Several people have already told us that these are the kind of photos they wish they had of their wedding.

What more can I say about Don and Jill Thompson that isn't already widely known! They are absolutely amazing!!! We fell in love with Don's photography from day one when we stumbled upon the website. We would eventually go on to fall in love with everything about D Bryant Photography. That ranges from their (Jill and Don) work to the very core of what makes them the people they are. They are true professionals with a passion for capturing magical moments with the camera. If we can help it, we will be forever connected to D Bryant Photography. I highly (to infinity) recommend D Bryant Photography to capture the emotion of your next event. You will not regret the decision nor the money spent. Worth every single red cent!! Thanks so much for everything. You guys are beautiful.

Don and Jill,
Thank you so much for the beautiflly captured photos of Rachel and Bobby’s marriage celebration. You have had a huge part of what will remain in our family’s memories. Walt and Diane, Parents of the Bride.

I cannot give Don enough praise for his pictures! During my wedding planning in 2010, I knew that my photographer would be crucial in making my wedding memorable! Don and Jiill (his wife/assistant) were absolutely amazing during my whole day! When I saw my wedding pictures, I started crying. It brought me back to my most important day in my life! Almost a year later, I still look at my pictures and can't believe how wonderful they are! Thank you so much Don and Jill!

I can't write enough positive things about Don and Jill (his wife and assistant). They were both wonderful to work with, not to mention the GORGEOUS pictures that came from the event. The camera wasn't noticeable in the least throughout the ceremony, and family pictures at the church afterwards were quick and efficient, without leaving anybody out. The bridal party shots were also quick enough to get us all back to the reception in good time (long enough to take a deep breath and have a drink before announcements), but still astoundingly creative. Throughout the reception, the camera (once again) was hardly noticeable, but we still got great shots.

Don and Jill arrived early, helped out wherever they could, and even set up a laptop with some preliminary shots of the ceremony and bridal party for guests to peruse during the reception.

Thanks both for an awesome time - can't wait to see the rest of the pictures!!

Don is an amazing photographer! He is very quick with his responses to emails and phone calls and very helpful with decision making. His eye for creatives shots is incredible. One thing many people commented on during our wedding was that our photographer was everywhere and was capturing all of the special moments. Our engagement pictures turned out wonderfully, and I can't wait to see our wedding photos. Don is wonderful to work with and I would HIGHLY recommend him!

Wonderful to work with. Don and Jill really know how to run a great business! They made sure I was relaxed and care free the whole time! Don has a great eye and Jill knows all the final touches for a great photo!

Don and Jill were delightful to work with, they obviously love what they do, and Don is a true artist.

Don's photos are wonderfully creative, showcasing the best aspects of the wedding location (Londontown Historic Gardens), the weather and of course the reason for the day....the Bride and Groom! Check out his web page blog to see his artistry first hand!

LOVE the 'details'!!!! Have received so many emails from family/friends about this very unique aspect!

And setting up the lap top slide show of pix during the reception was really neat - LOVED hearing the 'ooh's' and 'aaahs' from our guests!

Don truly captured the spirit of the day in his photos....creating the most wonderful memories!

Kathy Whaley, Mother of the Bride

Don was great and so was his wife Jill. The pictures that have seen have been awesome, he has a really creative eye. The only downfall was that I wish we had have more time to take more pictures, there were so many pictures we wanted that we just didnt squeeze it but that was not Don's fault. I truly felt like a movie star while he was shooting photos of me...

Don is just awesome. The team of Don and Jill is awesome. I agree with another reviewer that if you are getting married at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club you must book him. He knows every angle, every sun movement, and every way to get the most amazing shots possible. Both Don and Jill were so great to work with. They were full of helpful tips, compliments, suggestions and fun ideas for photos. Jill helped put on my veil, and helped keep the kids' eyes at the camera. Don worked his angles and created the most amazing photos that I am constantly receiving compliments on. I just don't think you can find a better photographer in the Annapolis area. I highly recommend D. Bryant.

It was a pleasure having the opportunity to work with Don and Jill. D Bryant was our photographer for both our engagement and wedding pictures. We have great shots from the formal poses that the family expected to fun pictures that reminded my family of pictures you would see in a magazine. He was easy to work with, makes sure you look your best, and we love our pictures. Thank you!

I needed to connect with my photographer, as I dont feel comfortable in front of a camera. Don made me feel at ease and both my husband and I felt the chemistry instantly at our engagement photo session. With Don what you see is what you get. A funny, energetic, talented, creative, professional, artistic type of guy. He somehow finds a way to capture every detail of your big day without disrupting the party. He literally creates scenery's and will turn your cloudy day into a cool and hip sunset! I can't say enough about his work. If you're getting married at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club you HAVE TO book him. He knows all the coordinators, the layout of the venue, soup to nuts, his experience working at this location truly helps and will blow you away! My guests adored him, my wedding party thought he was halarious...all involved absolutely loved him. 13 months of planning a wedding and it's all over in the blink of an eye. Luckily, I have beautiful pictures now to reflect on and cherish my awesome day with. Thanks Don, you rock!

Don Bryant is simply the best. Along with his wife Jill, and assistant Craig, they made our wedding day absolutely magical. His energy is infectious and his creativity is amazing. He has such a huge heart and genuinely cares about capturing each beautiful moment on your special day. Our pictures are absolutely gorgeous and my new husband and I can?t stop looking at them! All of our other vendors commented on how awesome our photographers were, and how wonderful they were to work with. We couldn?t agree more - we would highly, highly recommend D. Bryant and we hope all of our friends use him in the future!

Don and Jill photographed our wedding over Labor Day Weekend this year and we could not have asked for anything more! They captured our wedding day through some absolutely incredible photos. They are professional, fun, energetic, and have a contagious spirit of enthusiasm. We have spent countless hours going through every photo (multiple times), reliving our wedding day all over again. The photos are truly breathtaking and bring back all of the wonderful emotions of the day. Our friends and family have made a point of telling us how fantastic the photos were and that we had chosen an amazing photographer - they were absolutely right! Photos are some of the only tangible evidence of our wedding we will carry with us over the years, so choosing a great photographer was very important. We couldn't be happier with how our wedding photos (and the day itself!) turned out and we could never thank Don and Jill enough for all they did to make it happen.

Don is amazing! I am in love with his work. It is so artistic and revealing. On our wedding day...our personalities clicked so well and it was a blast working with him. He knows what angles work and what lighting will have that wow factor. I could not be happier with our wedding pictures. They are beyond beautiful. Don, Jill and Craig were so much fun to work with and really love what they do. I would definitely recommend him. His work speaks for itself...no need to clutter it with words. I recommend checking out his blog to really see how creative he is.

Don is the best. We have some of our wedding photos framed around the house, and we get compliments on them every time we have a guest over. He is professional, and friendly. You will not be disappointed!

Don and his wife were extremely helpful on my wedding day. They went above and beyond the requirements of a photographer. He capture my wedding day just they way I remember it...even parts I don't remember or didn't see!

Wendy Hickock was my photographer through D Bryant. She was amazing! She was very professional and calm and kept her good humor throughout a crazy long day. She actually was able to display some of the shots she took at the ceremony at the reception that night. Our guests loved being able to see some of the photos right away. Everyone loved her and I would highly recommend. I actually preferred having her rather than Don (though he is a great photographer as well)!

D. Bryant was the most wonderful photographer I could have chosen. I had seen his work for a friend's wedding and when the time came for my wedding, his work was at a level of quality far beyond that of any other photographer I considered. For that reason, I chose him even though he was a little outside of my budget, but it was worth every penny. His photographs are stunningly beautiful, he is truly a talented artist. He displayed the pictures from the ceremony and of my hunband and I getting ready on a laptop as a slideshow running thoughout the reception and my guests were all amazed. I would highly recommend D. Bryant as a photographer for any wedding.

Our Photographer was wonderful. Good Personality and Great Photos! Would highly recommend.

I have known Don both a professional and personal level for almost 5 years. It was a hands down no brainer decision to use him for our wedding. A variety of reasons factored in the decision. #1 the quality of work is breath taking and just undescribable in words... the quality is that good! #2 his personality in actually working with him, when he's the photographer. Our engagement portraits flowed so easy and nice because of how "chill" of a person he is and he makes you laugh. He grabs that special detail about you with his style; and that makes it well worth it. In that the day of the wedding the flow of how Don & His wife work together, it's truly perfect. #3 yes I am a vendor, I am a full time DJ in the area and on the professional side I prefer working with Don. We have this chemistry and flow, a level of respect to where we know how to work as a team and it's just the smoothest ever. Both of us have great luck working together and end up having excellent weddings. In fact we had a bride once write us both a letter; that's how good it was. Personally & Professionally... you can't go wrong with D. Bryant Photography!

D Bryant Photography, is nothing short of amazing! My brides rave about this dynamic photography team. I have worked with Don and he is so enthusiastic, creative, and truly just an all around nice guy. As a bride it is so important to feel secure with the vendors you choose, and to know that you have selected skilled professionals. Don creates a calm environment for his brides, and makes everyone feel at ease. I love working with him and I look forward to making many more brides happy together! I absolutley love his images and willingness to bend over backwards for his clients. Great guy and great photographer! Sincerely, Nicole Palermo Make-up artist

Don was the photographer for my son's wedding this June at the Naval Academy. No one captures the essense of that yard like Don. The pictures are magnificent. Thank you Don, happy to recommend you.

We LOVE working with Don & Jill! Amazing photography - can't even begin to describe these photos!

Don does fantastic work. He is a true professional inside and out. He goes the extra mile to make sure every photo looks absolutely perfect! He is a dedicated, seasoned professional that is just getting better every year. Grab him while you can - he books up very quickly!

I don't think I can find the right words to describe how articulate in creation Don Thompson is and at that it's probably the wrong arrangement of words. Simply stating "He's Perfect" and it's more than just the personal and professional recommendation I give to him. Week after week he delivers the "wow" factor with the work he creates, the pictures he takes, and the edited final product he markets for the fans to see or the potential bride looking to add that special touch of class to her wedding. Don is the premier photographer in the area and he's respected amongst the best of the best locally and has been endorsed nationally as far as the west coast. In short, you can't go wrong with him. He's worth every single penny even if he's out of budget and you can find a way to make it happen it's a dream come true in the end. D. Bryant Photography is hands down the best in the area and I'm glad to be a vendor that works with him regularly.

Don is simply the man! We work very well together and are always on the same page. A true professional and ALWAYS a pleasure to work with:) As for his work, it speaks for itself!

I worked a wedding with Don down at the Chesapeake Beach Resort & Spa and have to say his artistic ability, professionalism, and sheer excited attitude definitely made it an enjoyable experience!

Can I say more? ...Just look at his work! :)

D Bryant is always a pleasure to work with! He has a great eye and we always choose his photos to grace the cover of our award winning hotel wedding books!

This company is amoung the best in the country!

All I can say is DBRYANT photography is awesome!!! He takes the most breath-taking pictures and I send all of my brides to him...and EVERY one of them are extremely happy!!!!

Fine photography and a pleasure to refer clients on days that we are not available.

D Bryant's work is breathtaking! In 2007 he shot the Wedding for our Lead Wedding Planner (Melody Browning). Needless to say her wedding was fabulous and the way that Don & his Team photographed the event made it look even more amazing.

This is a company with magazine quality work! I would be honored to work with him and his team.

Donald Thompson of D. Bryant Photography is my favorite professional wedding photographer to work with and is in my professional opinion as an award-winning wedding videographer, Maryland's premier professional wedding photojounrnalist and one of the very best wedding photographers in the country! During the past decade of videotaping over 200 weddings including working with perhaps most of the high-end Baltimore/Washington area wedding photographers, I can honestly say, Donald is truely a gifted artist whose exceptional work sets the standard as a national leader in the fine art of wedding photojounalism. Of note, in addiiton to being a national award-winning wedding videographer, I also taught photography classes during my former career as a public school art teacher with 28 years teaching experience. Be sure to visit Don's website, www.dbryantphoto.com to learn more.
