Reviews for Artful Weddings by Sachs Photography
GUEST




Anne and Sarah were the photographers for my wedding. I am just getting photos back and am just blown away and speechless. Such perfect moments were captured that make me feel like I am reliving the day as I go through them. Both Anne and Sarah are not only so amazingly talented, but are just wonderful people in general, accommodating, and so easy to work with. I think their work, along with Joe's speaks for itself, but these are people you can't help but love working with. Just really easy going and honest.
I was in love with the photos Anne did of our engagement session and the beautiful album she presented to us from it that we used it as our sign in book. I cannot wait to see how our full wedding album turns out.
Oh, and the photo booth!! Not a typical photo booth, but a camera ready with a clicker that you to use while posing! The photos from that alone are amazing with the fun filters and all, it's definitely something you should...

GUEST




Anne is so great! She is so sweet and it felt like one of my friends doing the photography. Highly recommend doing the engagement photo session so you get to know each other and also so you have some great photos that are not too formal.
GUEST




I had the pleasure of working with Anne Sachs and Edwin for my wedding on October 1st. Simply put..they are amazing! The pictures from my special day are phenomenal! They managed to capture every special moment and when my husband and I look at them we feel like we get to relive our day. Friends that have seen the pictures comment on how beautiful they are....I have told everyone possible to use
artful weddings as their wedding photographer. Truthfully, my experience could not have been any better. On top of
the stress of planning a wedding my husband and I were also
trying to do it from out of state. Anne was more than accommodating and flexible throughout the whole process.
She was a dream to work with and always put me at ease. I could not recommend Anne Sachs and artful weddings enough!
GUEST




Anne and Sarah photographed our wedding at Tabrizi's and did a fabulous job. They had great ideas and captured some beautiful moments in unique and artistic ways. I just loved looking through all the pictures. Their personalities are great too-- we felt super comfortable and honestly didn't even know they were there for most of the wedding! It was a pleasure working with Artful Weddings and I would highly recommend them for any event.
GUEST




Artful Weddings photographed two weddings for our family this year, and both sets of pictures are beautiful, capturing each event's unique character. Anne, Howard, and Joe all know what makes a good picture and provide excellent guidance but also know exactly when to fade into the background and record the unscripted moments. It was an absolute pleasure to work with them!
GUEST




Anne Sachs and Edwin shot our June wedding and did such a phenomenal job! From the first time I met Anne, I knew from her sample photos and her professional yet kind and fun demeanor, that she would be great. This initial thought was bolstered by conversations with friends that had used Anne, as well as recommendations from all the other types of vendors we consulted.
At the engagement session Anne put us at ease, and on the day of the wedding, she managed to be everywhere, capturing every moment, without being intrusive. All of our friends and family commented about how wonderful Anne was that day. She also made sure to that we captured all of the people we had put on our list to make sure we didn't forget any pictures amid all of the excitement.
The photos were nothing short of exquisite, and the link to the website was posted quickly. We are now in the midst of designing our album, and it is so hard to choose from all the lovely photographs!
We have already recommended Anne to all of our engaged friends and can't say enough good things about her!
GUEST




Joe and Ann Sachs shot our June wedding and did a more spectacular job than we could have expected! From our first meeting their personalized service and can do attitudes won us over (as did their beautiful portfolio). While shopping for other types of vendors we received very positive feedback when asked who was shooting our wedding. From our florist to our videographer, everyone who had worked with them had nothing but good things to say! Which as a bride, really put my mind at ease. The day of the wedding they were professional and fun. They seemed to be everywhere to get the shot without being intrusive. After coming home from our honeymoon we were immediately able to access our online album and couldn't have been happier! Ann and Joe took so many amazing photographers! We received so many calls from friends and family saying how beautiful our pictures are. Our wedding day was the best day of our lives but seemed to go by in the blink of an eye. I highly recommend Sachs to capture every wonderful moment.
GUEST




Working with Anne from start to finish was excellent in every way. Before and during our engagement session, we had a chance to get to know Anne and her style of photography. She was extremely flexible with us and how she shot our photos. Her professionalism showed through when we got to see our prints. Her experience in helping us lay out a time line for our wedding day and keeping to that timeline was priceless. We chose to use Anne and Edwin as our wedding day photographers and they were exceptional! They gave us great input, but allowed us to add our own creativity to the photos. They captured all of the emotion and happiness of our wedding day. The follow up to our wedding has been very timely. We highly recommend choosing Sachs Photography, as it was our one splurge and absolutely worth it.
Vendor response to review
Andrea and Matt were one of my favorite clients this year. Starting with their engagement session in November 2010, they were so easy to work with and were well prepared for the engagement session which we did at Woodberry Mills. The wedding day was just perfect, and they gave us enough time to get some really fantastic images of the two of them.
GUEST




I loved working with Ann and Joe. They were so warm and wonderful. They worked the reception with such comfort. The pictures are great. I would highly recommend them to everyone.
GUEST




Loved working with Anne and Joe. The pictures are beautiful and couldnt give them a higher praise. They captured the real intimate moments that couldnt be staged and show the true excitement and emotion of the day. Love them!
GUEST




The top priority to any Bride is the memories that are represented in the Photography. Make Anne your #1 priority!
Not only is she a true pleasure to work with, but her staff if 100% responsive to your requests at the drop of a hat. Thank you Elizabeth!
The photos, have that WOW effect, that still has my guests just in awe of Annes work.
I truly hope to have the opportunity to have Anne at other functions !
She captured the Bride and Groom as if she had known them much longer. STOP your search for a photographer and sign with ANNE!
GUEST




Anne and her team made us feel like our wedding was the most important day of their lives. They truly treated us like a king and queen. They took time to get to know us before the wedding to determine our priorities for the day. All of the photos are amazing, we get compliments from everyone who sees them. Anne caught moments on film that we hardly remember from the day and that we'll cherish forever.
Vendor response to review
Amy, Jon and their families were absolutely a dream to work with. They were flexible with timing of photographs due to the big St. Patrick's Day parade taking place outside. We even did fun photos of the two of them in the parade! It was all around a great day with a really lovely group and party.
GUEST




We worked with Anne as the photographer for our October wedding by the Chesapeake Bay, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Anne really listened to what we wanted, and also gave us candid feedback on what would work best for our guests and our location. On the day of the wedding she was there, calm and steady (even though I wasn't!), and we were able to relax and enjoy the day knowing that she would use all her skill and talent to capture every moment. We also worked with another photographer from this shop, Olivier, who was on hand to capture pre-ceremony moments with the groom while Anne was with the bride, and stayed throughout the evening to make sure that we didn't miss a single photo op. He was wonderful to work with, and lent his own artistic perspective to the photography so that we had a great variety of images to choose from. I highly recommend this vendor, and the two-shooter option is definitely worth it. This was a wonderful experience.
GUEST




Choosing Sachs Photography for our wedding was a no brainer. When I went online and saw the gorgeous photographs, I just knew I had to use them. I was nervous that my pictures wouldn't turn out as perfect as the ones on the website, but boy was I wrong. We hired Joe Sachs and an associate photographer to shoot our ceremony and reception. The pictures truly exceeded my expectations. They truly captured every special moment, and made us and our families feel at ease. And, we had our pictures within 2 weeks of our wedding!!! The angles, the colors, and the emotions they captured were simply priceless. Plus, they were punctual and professional. I highly recommend them!
GUEST




Anne Sachs and her team are professional, personable and a pleasure to work with. Artful Weddings is THE must-have vendor. We enjoyed having the engagement shoot in Mt. Vernon, Baltimore, (got to know the photographer, who made a guest book out of the photos). The planning with this vendor was a breeze, and we were very confident throughout the process. Anne worked with us to create a time line of shots, and she was able to meet all of our requests in the time frame. The photographers were invisible during the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. We are very pleased with the ease of use of the Artful Wedding website, and are looking forward to choosing the photos for our album -- memories for a lifetime. Thank you, Anne!
GUEST




Sachs Photography was absolutely the best choice we could have made. We had Heather and Sara as our photographers and they took some of the most beautiful pictures. They were fantastic in accommodating our requests as well as suggesting some additional shots. They were exactly what we were looking for, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a skilled photographer.
GUEST




I couldn't have asked for more perfect pictures. I got all the photos i wanted and i got the artsy beautiful natural feel that i love with them as well!!!
Working with them has been great they are so flexible and so helpful when designing the album. I am a graphic designer so i am very particular about this stuff and its just been amazing.
GUEST




We used Sachs Photography for our wedding 3 weeks ago and are extremely happy with the pictures! They are beautifully done and captured every aspect of the day, even those that I didn't have the time to see (i.e. flowers, table settings, guest shots, etc.). We had the pleasure of having Heather and Edwin as our photographers, and they followed our recommendations in a nonobtrusive manner. My husband had very positive feedback regarding Edwin and I had the pleasure of spending the day with Heather. She is professional yet fun, and she kept me calm while going above her duties (i.e. bustling my dress when no on else new how!) We are thrilled with the pictures and recommend Sachs without reservation:)
GUEST




The pictures from my wedding day are phenomenal! It has been over 6 years and every time I look at the pictures, I am taken back to that day and all the wonderful memories. Joe did a fantastic job!
GUEST




We had such an amazing experience with Sachs Photography throughout our wedding planning and day. Anne Sachs captured our wedding perfectly and was also responsible for many helpful suggestions throughout the process. Her experience in the business truly comes through in every aspect of her work and it shows immensely in the final products. She is a pleasure to work with, put everyone immediately at ease throughout our wedding day, and was wonderfully flexible with our travel schedule since we don't currently live in Baltimore. We've received so many complements on our pictures since the wedding and Anne definitely deserves all of the credit! It's hard to put into words how much it means to us to have our memories of our big day captured so beautifully, but we are thrilled that we were able to work with Sachs and will treasure our album forever! Thank you Anne for everything!
GUEST




My husband and I just got back from our honeymoon and finally got the chance to look at all 923 photos that are posted on the web. We also recently received our own DVD version of every edited photo! All I can say is "WOW"!!! We are overwhelmingly thrilled and beyond excited about the work Sachs Photography did!! We love each and every one of the photos. Heather Keating completely and totally captured every single minute of the day in a sensitive and artistic manner that has more than exceeded both our expectations AND our greatest hopes! From the getting ready shots to the shots with the sculptures, to the family shots, to the ceremony, the flowers, the cake, us dancing, our wedding Nikes, (I could go on and on), her work is so wonderful. It enables us to relive the best day of our life together and re-experience the same joy, humor, and overall intensity of emotions that were feeling as each of those amazing moments flew by. We also get to see the sculptural and artistic elements we cared so much about with the gorgeous close-up shots she took of my dress, our shoes and the rings, to name a few. We feel like such rockstars when we see how closely she followed us, even when we weren't aware that she were doing it!
Heather's sparkling personality, professionalism, thoroughness, and talents as an artist are only a few of the attributes that make Sach's Photography so great at what they do. We are so lucky to have met and worked with Heather, and we definitely HIGHLY recommend them to anyone and everyone!
GUEST




Anne was fantastic as our wedding photographer. She took an interest in getting to know my husband and I and was able to capture wonderful shots of the ceremony and reception. She was a pleasure to work with and was flexible as I was planning this from out of state. I would hightly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer
GUEST




I can't say enough good things about Anne Sachs and Artful Weddings. Anne was fabulous and professional from start to finish. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for amazing wedding photography.
GUEST




Anne was absolutely wonderful!!! We have the most beautiful pictures!!!
GUEST




Wonderful experience for everyone. Anne Sachs was always professional and guests found her to be calm and friendly. She made my daughter feel relaxed and calm as well. Professional services after the wedding have also been extremely informative and pleasant. Anne has given us plenty of time to make photo selections and has taken a lot of time to explain the various products that are avaliable. It is also nice to know that Anne's designing experience will result in a beautiful wedding album. Anne has helped us thoughout the entire wedding process. Her thoughtful remarks and keen sense of humor has made the often hectic wedding experience more enjoyable.
We were so pleased with Anne's services that my son and his fiance have hired her to photograph their wedding in December.
GUEST




Joe and Edwin worked our Halloween wedding last October, and they were both great. They made us feel completely comfortable and kept us loose before the ceremony, then dressed in costume and really blended in and had fun with everyone at the reception.
The pictures turned out amazing; we're having a hard time figuring out which ones to pick for our album because they're that good. We would recommed Artful Weddings to anyone.
Thanks again!
Chelsea + Keith
GUEST




Anne is crazy awesome. She and her assistant Matt did such an amazing job on our photos. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a really fun and creative photographer who is easy to work with. :D I would totally hire her in a second for any other event or photoshoot. :D
GUEST




Anne and Joe are a powerhouse team. I have worked with both for several years professionally and when I needed to hire a photographer for my own wedding in October, it was a no-brainer. They have such an amazing eye and captured every moment in a unique and special way. I am thrilled to have their work as a reminder of the wonderful day and look forward to many more projects with them in the future!
GUEST




Just got back from the honeymoon to the wonderful surprise of our pictures in my inbox!!! Beautiful!!!! Heather did an amazing job of capturing the emotions and overall happiness we felt on our special day. She was very patient and attentive and truly gave us memories that will last a lifetime. From our very first meeting to the day of the team at Sachs Photography were corteous and helpful. You guys did an amazing job! Thank you.
GUEST




Anne Sachs is the best! Her wedding pictures exceeded our wildest expectations. She was so easy to work with and put everyone at ease. The pictures are really stunning. She is worth every penny -- and more!!
GUEST




Artful Weddings by Sach's Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with. I was very happy with all of the pictures, they captured so many special moments we will be able to treasure forever. My husband and I would highly recommend Sach's Photography. The pictures from your wedding will be your memories to charish and to look back on one of the most important days in your lives!! Amy & Eric
GUEST




Anne and Joe photographed our wedding in July, 2009 at the Antrim. I can't rave about them or there pictures, enough! Not only did they make my husband and me feel comfortable in front of the camera, they also let us enjoy the day without direction and captured moments that are unforgettable, intimate and memories we will cherish for a lifetime.
Vendor response to review
We had such a fabulous time working with Kate and Noah. Some of our most favorite images from the Antrim are with the two of them and their families. Thank you guys for being such great clients!!! And, it's been great seeing you at weddings this year!
GUEST




I cannot say enough about these photographers. They were so easy to work with and so willing to help me with ideas/changes/opinions about good shots. They were fun and laid back, but super professional at the same time, and delivered beautiful photos. My album is something I will cherish forever and is just a perfect summary of the beautiful day we celebrated.
I have a few friends who have been married recently, and they each one of them was jealous of my pictures and my album! I highly recommend them...the photographer is definitely one of the most important parts!
GUEST




Anne was amazing! We love all of of photographs. Anne is so talented!!
Her service to her clients from the beginning of the process all the way through the end has been wonderful. We started meeting with Anne 1 year before our wedding and are still working through the details of our album 4 months after our wedding. She is so dedicated to making sure all your pictures and albums are exactly the way you want.
AMAZING PICTURES - my guests won't stop talking about our photos!
AMAZING DEDICATION - from start to finish!

My wedding was May 30, 2009 at the Kent Manor Inn. I had the pleasure of working with Anne Sachs and Edwin, her assistant. From the beginning of the planning process to scheduling a meeting over the 4th of July holiday to meet Sachs Photography is the best. Not only am I bride of their's but I also work closely with Anne and Joe as a wedding coorindator. They truly capture each and every moment without you even knowing that they are there. With over 1400 images of my wedding from start to end I still look back and say when was that picture taken. If you are looking for a personable photographer, who is non-intrusive I would defintely recommend Sachs Photography.
GUEST




Anne Sachs is amazing! From our very first appointment, to the wedding day itself, and through the album planning process, Anne and her team have been an absolute dream to work with. During our first meeting, Anne seemed more interested in getting to know my fiancee and I than in making the big sell (though she clearly did that well, too!), and she respected and worked within our budget. Anne is a rare combination of easygoing yet highly professional, and her creativity and humor are wonderfully refreshing. Anne's style was very unobtrusive, yet the photos of our wedding are remarkably intimate. She and her team captured tiny moments and glances in a way that we will treasure forever. She was and is worth every penny, and my family (both old and new) will absolutely work with her whenever we can in the years to come! If only everything were this easy...

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Anne at Artful Weddings Our guests had nothing but great things to say about her. She was so inconspicuous. We saw pictures of things that we didn't even realize she was present for. She really captured all the beauty, emotions and fun of the day. It was such a treat to work with someone that was not only extremely professional and talented but a lot of fun as well!
GUEST




The team at Artful Weddings were great to work with for our wedding - they were truly professional, yet had a very personal touch. The best of all - we loved our photos! They captured every moment and really showed the emotion and feel of the day. They were unobtrusive, yet also made sure we didn't miss any shots we had told them in advace we wanted. We are so glad we hired them and highly recommend them!
GUEST




Artful Weddings did a wonderful job from start to finish. They helped to make my wedding day wonderful and seemed to always be in the right place at the right time taking beautiful photos. I highly recommend this vendor!
GUEST




Joe Sachs is awesome. Very unobtrusive and captures great shots! I recommend them highly!
GUEST




Joe captured every special moment of the best day of our lives in May of 2008 when we got married. He also did our engagement pictures in fall of 2007. Today, Anne photographed our one year old son and we had one of the best family experiences to date- our session was fun and relaxed and the perfect way to benchmark our little family. I can't thank Joe and Anne enough for helping us to commemorate our special occasions in such a touching, beautiful way.
The photos are classically beautiful, creative yet understated in their simplicity. I would whole heartedly recommend Sachs for any event... they have an eye for detail and an easy yet professional manner that makes working with them pure joy!
GUEST




We had the pleasure of working with Anne in the spring of '08. We had such an incredible experience that I find myself STILL singing her praises. Specifically, we were drawn to her quality of work - every photo beautiful and captured the emotion of the moment. Choosing photos for the album was hard because of that! Planning with Anne was effortless, easy and enjoyable. Then, on the day of our wedding, Anne blended right in to capture fantastic shots. She even worked with us to get a large group photo taken from the second floor while our guests were on the lawn. To this day, I am still left with a great impression of the work and the person who helped to capture our special day. When you still feel like this years after the event, you KNOW it was excellent service.
GUEST




Sachs photography was extremely accomodating, and they were interested in phtographing our wedding in several styles. They covered everything!!!
GUEST




Ann Sachs and her assistant Maria were absolutely wonderful. They were always on top of things and I hardly ever noticed them - in that they were unobtrusive to the events taking place. Ann took such an interest in what WE wanted for our wedding. Their photography style really caught my heart - they truly know how to capture the essence of the occasion through photo journalism style which is what we were looking for.
GUEST




I loved my wedding pictures. They turned out perfect. My sister also used them and her's were just as amazing. I highly recommend them for your special wedding celebration.
GUEST




Pictures are SO important. I love my album. I loved the photographers. You didn't even know they were there. The wonderful thing is that Joe can really pull your personality out in the photographs. It makes such a difference. I get compliments on our photographs all the time.
GUEST




Anne was the easiest and greatest person to work with with. She put everyone at ease and made the daunting task of hundreds of puctures enjoyable. She made everyone laugh and took the best photos that any of my guests have see. I will recommend her to everyone I meet!
GUEST




Sachs photography did a fantastic job on our wedding photos. We had Heather and Sarah, and they were awesome. We had a blast with them. They really knew what they were doing. I didn't even notice them during the reception or ceremony. They really had some amazing shots down on the beach, i couldn't have even imagined the way they turned out. They are costly, but all the good photographers are, but they really are worth it. you get what you pay for! The only thing i had an issue with was, response time for emails. But its no big deal.
GUEST




Budget concerns were big in planning our October 2010 wedding and hiring Artful Weddings as our photographers was one of our splurges. We are so glad that we made that decision! In fact, as it turns out, we didn't even have to splurge as much as we anticipated because Artful Weddings offers some pretty reasonable packages (as well as great rates for extras like a 2nd photographer). As for our pictures, they were fantastic and we couldn't be happier. Ollivier and Howard were great personalities to have on hand and many guests commented that they hardly noticed their presence. So many shots bring me back to the wedding day and remind me of exactly how special everything felt. We're really pleased with everything!
GUEST




Heather and the entire team here were just amazing to work with. We had a great engagement session, and I cannot wait to see our final wedding shots. Heather is a true professional and artist and I loved all that she did.
GUEST




We had a blast working with Heather and Sarah from Artful Weddings at our wedding. After going through their website, we had complete confidence in them. Plus, they offered lots of different packages. Then Heather took the time to meet with us before hand to go through the lay of the land of our ceremony/reception sites.
And as soon as Heather and Sarah arrived to do photos the day of, they put us all right at ease. Heather kept us laughing and comfortable ahead of time, got fantastic and meaningful shots during the ceremony, and moved us through the few posed family pictures quickly but patiently. After that, Heather took us all around the gardens of our site (The Museum of the Shenandoah Valley) and got tons of great shots! Sarah became invisible and got pictures of the cocktail hour that perfectly captured the elegant and festive mood without making any guests feel like they were 'on.' The pictures of the reception were just as wonderful. We treasure the pictures of the dancing, too.
Again, we had so much fun with you -- you never made posing for pictures a chore. Thank you so so much for all your hard work! And we very highly recommend Artful Weddings!
GUEST




Anne took wonderful care of me and my husband both before and after the wedding. She took all the time necessary to make things right. Her suggestions for other vendors were dead on. I would recommend her to anyone!
GUEST




Artful Weddings was absolutely fantastic - they worked with us to determine a package and photography arrangement in our budget and for what we were looking for. We ended up working with two of their associate photographers - Edwin and Sunny - and were very pleased. But were unobtrusive, easygoing, and got a great number of candid photos of our guests, as we wanted. We also loved that we got a mix of the traditional, posy-type of shots and a number of more creative & artsy photos. Artful Weddings was just amazing, and we would absolutely book again.
GUEST




Absolutely amazing!!! I have the best memories from our wedding. From the engagement shoot, to the wedding day, the pictures were absolutely beautiful! There are just no words to describe how beautiful the albums turned out and Anne is just a delight to work with. I would highly recommend Anne and Joe to anyone!
GUEST




Joe Sachs and his associates were wonderful to have around on our wedding day and the photos they took are priceless to us. They were both helpful and unobtrusive, yet managed to capture what seemed like every moment of our wedding. I would highly recommend them.
GUEST




Joe is the best! He is extremely professional and is actually very helpful on the big day. He helped people get ready and made several useful suggestions, in addition to great posing and candid photography. His assistant and additional photographer were great and widely available; they really take a TON of pictures and the quality is unmatched. It is worth it to have more than one photog too, the price difference is nominal and you get various perspectives on the big moments. Very impressed!
GUEST




Ann Sachs and her photographers captured the happiness and joy of my daughter and her husband as well as all the guests at the wedding. The photographs truly capture the uniqueness and ambiance of the area as well. We are very pleased and are having a difficult time determining which pictures will be chosen for the final album.
GUEST




We very much enjoyed working with Sachs Photography for our wedding. We hired Edwin Remsberg and brought an assistant Sarah. They were both un-intrustive, captured many fabulous shots and a dream to work with. They really worked incredibly hard during our wedding, yet put our guests at ease. We loved our wedding photos!
The reason we only gave them four stars for value is we found their chooses a little confusing, but they were incredibly flexible and once we told them what we wanted, they did it.
GUEST




We loved our pictures from Anne at Artful Weddings! The only problem is that there are so many good ones that four months later we still cannot decide what we want for our album! Anne was great to work with, very fun, and the pictures came out beautifully. I would absolutely recommend them for your wedding.
GUEST




We loved working with Artful Weddings (and photographer Heather Keating) on our wedding. The pictures turned out beautifully, and Heather and her assistant brought a great vibe to our wedding day. They got us through the formal portaits pleasantly and efficiently, and blended right in with the party for the remainder of the time. We played a bit of phone tag to schedule our inital engagement session; otherwise, Artful Weddings was very responsive throughout the process. The services offered, while not cheap, are certainly worth every penny!
GUEST




We hired Artful Weddings by Sachs Photography for our wedding and engagement pictures. We loved that they were small and personally owned and run by the Sachs. I had spoken to other big business vendors and felt that my wedding would be run by a machine, rather than people (what can I say, I like a personal touch).
Heather was absolutely amazing. She is very friendly and approachable, and very creative. We had no idea our pictures would come out as beautiful as they did. Our wedding party loved her, too. She is skilled at handling large parties and weddings - it was as if she was everywhere and no where at the same time (as in - she was able to capture all of the moments of the wedding, but we barely saw her).
You can tell that Anne and Joe are passionate about their work and their business. We did have a minor misunderstanding at one point in the process, but both sides clarified, apologized, and moved on as adults. We would recommend Sachs without hesitation, and would definitely hire Heather again. Our portfolio of pictures, both wedding and engagement, are amazing. If I had to do anything differently, it would have been adding an hour on to the contract. We had one photographer for 7 hours, and while Heather was very productive in that 7 hours, we missed some photo opportunities in that last hour and a half of the reception (including a last dress change). In my opinion, adding the 8th hour would have been worth it (and had I been able to stop and think about anything all day long, I would have just opted to pay extra to keep her there!).
I do have to add that Heather can be a bit difficult to get in touch with sometimes, but when you do speak to her, you realize it is nothing personal. :)
GUEST




Anne Sachs and her team were the most incredible photographers. They were wonderfully professional, accommodating, and innovative throughout the whole process- from our initial consolation to the final event- our wedding day. Anne was a dream to work with and I can't imagine anyone else being there on my wedding day. She did our engagement shoot as well, and by the time the wedding arrived, my husband and I felt so comfortable with her and her team. The photos turned out just gorgeous. All in all, I would give Artful Weddings a 10 out of 10 and HIGHLY recommend!
GUEST




As soon as I found Sach's photography I knew I wanted to use them! I really liked their style of photography and the feel that I got from them as a small company. We instantly felt comfortable with them. We did an engagement session with Anne, which was wonderful. Her bubbly personality made us feel right a home. We also loved the pictures! It was really difficult to choose which ones we were going to use! We were very lucky to have both Anne and Joe on the wedding day. This was great because Anne was able to get pictures of the guys getting ready, while Joe was with the girls. After the ceremony they did an awesome job getting the posed pictures out of the way fast. Then at the reception I hardly even knew they were there! I was a little anxious to get the pictures back and could hardly believe how quickly they were up on the website! We were able to view our wedding photos before friends of ours that got married a month before us. The wedding pictures are amazing!!! I could not have asked for more and I am absolutely in love with them! I look at them all the time and am able to relive my wedding day. They captured every moment in such a beautiful way! I am very happy that I chose Sach's photography and would highly recommend them!!!!
GUEST




When I first contacted them, I had a bit of trouble getting information and felt a bit like I had gotten the run around, but once I got my proofs, all of that completely faded away, as the pictures were BEAUTIFUL! Anne Sachs was my photographer and she and her assistant were warm, unobtrusive and generally wonderful. She's not even one of the photographers that are on the website, but her work is amazing. I had such a hard time even narrowing down the pictures for the album! Lots of beautiful posed pictures, but also tons of awesome candids that really showcase what the wedding was all about. Highly recommended!
GUEST




Heather and Sarah were the photographers of our wedding. Our wedding pictures turned out amazing! They caught every single moment of the day and I never even realized they were there half of the time. They were professional and did a beautiful job. Sarah was so sweet and made sure that I knew when she was leaving so she could get any last minute shots that I wanted. At times it was hard to get in touch with Heather about our engagement and wedding pictures but in the end I wouldn't have went with anyone else! I am so happy with Artful Weddings by Sachs Photography!
GUEST




I Loved working with Sachs. Heather was our photographer and she was wonderful. Joe and Anne have been so helpful with everything and I would refer them to my friends and family 100%
GUEST




The best vendor I hired for my wedding, the professionalism was so wonderful and the photographers caught all the shots without interfering in our fun for the day.

Overall, we had an amazing experience with Sachs. They wee reasonably priced for their level of service and experience. Unfortunately, a fair amount of my photos, about 15%, (bridal portraits and bride with bridesmaids) were lost during the file transfer process. An unfortunate human error that I am sure happens very rarely with this vendor. Sachs was extremely apologetic about the accident, recognized that they could not replace the photos and made every effort to provide us with anything possible to help reduce the feeling of this void. They definitely went above and beyond for us. They made us feel like we were their only couple at every meeting. Their personal attention and fun-loving, unobtrusive demeanor definitely helped us enjoy our special day. Not to mention, our photos are breath taking. Special angles, artistic touches... they made every picture look unique and distinctive. I would definitely use them again!

Joe and his crew from Artful Weddings was great to work with. They helped us customize a photography package that worked best for us. Unfortunately it snowed on our wedding but Joe and Edwin were quick to find an indoor place and the pictures turned out wonderful.

Beautiful photographs and artful twist and a wonderful selection of photos. Slightly disorganized when arranging group photos.

I really searched for a photographer who would do less of the posed pictures and more candid shots with an artistic flare. While Heather Keating from Artful Weddings did provide a number of beautiful shots that absolutely fit that description, I also had a lot of those that did not. I did not try to contact her often but when I did she was very difficult to get in touch with and did not answer repeated e-mails - it took a phone message to finally get her to respond. She is very fun and encouraging as a photographer, but sometimes I thought she got a little too silly with her assistant, and my husband and I were pulled away from the cocktail hour to get pictures when we had said that we really did not want to do that.
Heather did talk me into doing a "first look," and I'm so glad she did. It absolutely helped calm our nerves and allowed us to enjoy our reception, but there were many posed shots during that first look time, and most came out looking just the was posed shots do to me - cheesy. There were also a lot of profile pictures of me, and I had specifically told her I really don't like my profile, so I won't be ordering any of those. While we had many beautiful pictures, I could say the same for the pictures some of my friends took, and I don't feel like my desires for the focus of our pictures was heard by our photographers.
I would not say that I am disappointed overall, but based on what I saw of Heather's beautiful, artistic pictures on the website, I was hoping for better.
Very good work and very professional.
Artful Weddins does an amazing job! Their photograpy is top notch

Highly recommended! Wonderful to work with, fun, enthusiastic, personable and very talented photographers! The Best!
Joe and Anne Sachs, and for that matter, their entire staff, are the epitome of what people are looking for when they say they want candid, unobtrusive coverage of their wedding day. Working side by side with them we get to observe how they very slyly maneuver their way through an event unnoticed but are always right where they need to be when that one moment that everyone will talk about for years, happens. We highly recommend Artful Weddings and can't wait until the next time see them out there capturing the magic!
It's always a pleasure to work with Anne and Joe Sachs. They are so calm and make everyone around them seem calm down. Their pictures are incredibly artistic. I would most certainly recommend them for a wedding or any other special event. Dulany Noble, owner Gala Cloths

Sachs Photograhy is perhaps one of the best I have ever worked with. Always there, always beautiful shots. They are a pleasure and a delight to work with.
Anne and Joe Sachs have photographed many of our customer's weddings and other special occasions. All of our customers rave about their work and say that they would definitely choose Anne and Joe again and recommend them to their friends.
Joe and Anne are two of the most creative and personable wedding photographers to ever work at Chase Court. They bring years and years of experience at doing it right. Their two complimentary personalities (think of Joe as soft-spoken and unobtrusive, Anne as just-right enthusiastic) work beautifully together. Outstanding photography requires technical mastery and professional-level creativity. Joe and Anne have both. Highly recommended.
As a florist I rely on the wedding photographers to get great shots of my work for my website and portfolios. Its always amazing to me how many photographers don't get photos of the flowers or details of the wedding. But not Sachs, Joe and Anne are both tremendously talented and not only capture the details of each wedding , but they do so in such a way that also captures the mood, ambiance, and emotions of the day. I also absolutely love the manipulation they can do with printing that is so stylish and vintage-y but never overdone. Absolutely wonderful people to know and amazing people to work with.
Anne and Joe are fantastic to work with! They are both professional and creative and are sure to make your wedding day a success! They have a gift for photography and will certainly capture each moment of your big day.
What can I say. Working with Anne & Joe is a wonderful experience. They know their job well and enjoy it at the same time. Never a huff from either one! Their finished product is artful! Not just photos. ~Keith
I have been working with Sachs Photography since I opened my business here in Baltimore 12 years ago. All I can say is- Wow!! I never cease to be amazed at the vision both Anne and Joe have, and their attention to detail is unparelleled. Since they both love flowers, you can be sure they will capture your bouquet and other floral details from your event with fervor and artistry! They are simply wonderful photographers and very awesome people, to boot! Call them, you will be so happy!
The first time I had the oppertunity to work with Artful Weddings was at the Cloisters Castle for a quaint Autumn Wedding. I was immediately impressed with Joe's style and calming personality. He was stealthy in the way he moved about capturing the ceremony and reception images without being drawing attention. I was even more impressed when I saw the way the images were formatted on-line. I would be delighted to work with Joe and the Artful Weddings team Again.
About Artful Weddings by Sachs Photography
Anne & Joe immediately puts everyone at ease. We think that this is probably one of their greatest gifts as photographers. The time between our first two meetings was almost a year, and they remembered every want and need that we had articulated as though it was yesterday. She really, really listened to us. You know when your guests take you aside to tell you how wonderful your photographer is, that you’ve found a gem. We feel lucky to have had her share our wedding day. ~ Caitlin & Robert
FAQ for Artful Weddings by Sachs Photography
• Write a detailed schedule and share with your wedding professionals
• Put together a list of group photographs to review with your photographer
• Plan to review the schedule and group list four to six weeks before the wedding.
• Make sure everyone in the bridal party (and families) knows when they need to be ready and where photos are to take place. The rehearsal dinner can be a good place to remind them.
• Relax and enjoy your reception by scheduling your group photographs before the ceremony.
• The next best time to take them is immediately after the ceremony. This way, everyone should still be to hand, and you will not lose a lot of time rounding them up.
• Bring a small “emergency kit” of safety and straight pins, needle and thread (white, black and the colors of the bridesmaids’ and mothers’ dresses), aspirin and makeup bag with powder/blotting paper for faces.
• Have a cooler with water and juice (clear colors, not red!) in your limo or trolley. A small snack can help, too, by staving off hunger pangs and headaches!
Makeup Tips to Look Your Most Beautiful in Photographs
• Foundation should be flawless, even and smooth
• Use matte finishing powder to decrease shine
• Keep blotting papers on hand for use throughout the day
• Keep eye shadow light and natural
• Wear black mascara even if you don’t normally use it. It makes your eyes pop!
• Don’t ring your eyes in black eyeliner
• Nothing too shiny or glittery on lips, cheeks or eyes
• Try a test run of your makeup before your wedding day – an engagement session or bridal portrait session can be a great time to do a test run.
• Hire a professional makeup artist
• Ask your photographer for recommendations
