Nice to meet you - I’m Joey Rushfield! I am a 25-year-old portrait and wedding photographer from Rockville, MD. I have done photography for clients since 2017, and I have no intention of slowing down! Portrait photography is my specialty, but I also love photographing weddings and mitzvahs, all with a fast turnaround time, about half the length of industry standards. My style tends to be cinematic with contrast and emotion, so if that’s your jam, we’re a perfect match. I hold degrees in Elementary Education and Digital Photography, with plans to return for an MFA degree. Outside of taking pictures, I am a teacher with professional experience working with children from the ages of 3 through 17. As you can imagine, this comes in handy for portraits of children and family photos! All this talk is making me want to get out there and take more photos… who’s in? Notes for clarity: If you’d like studio portraits, I have a portable setup I can bring to you since I do not currently have a space big enough for full body portraits. For couple and family portraits, we’d be working on location with gorgeous scenery as our backdrop. Please only inquire about studio portraits if you want me to bring the gear to your location. On Thumbtack, I currently only allow inquiries for shorter weddings/events.

With over 10 years of professional experience, I bring a proven track record of capturing moments beautifully and creatively. My extensive portfolio and numerous satisfied clients speak to my dedication and skill. I am highly reviewed with over 100 positive reviews that highlight my reliability, professionalism, and ability to deliver stunning results.
