You Don’t Just Want Photos.
You Want to Remember How It Felt.
Hi, I’m Serge—the energy, eye, and instinct behind Sokolov Photography.
For over 15 years, I’ve photographed weddings across Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia with a style that’s bold, candid, and full of life.
I started in fashion photography, where perfection was everything. But I found something more powerful in wedding photography that fashion could never match: real emotion.
That tearful smile during the vows.
The glance from a proud parent.
The chaos and the calm.
I live to capture those moments—your moments—honestly and beautifully.
Whether it’s a black-tie ballroom or a barefoot beach ceremony, I approach every wedding with the same goal: to make you feel seen, comfortable, and completely present.
Sokolov Photography is proud to be a multi-award-winning studio, with five consecutive WeddingWire Couples’ Choice Awards and a spot in The Knot’s Best of Weddings. But more than the accolades, it’s the trust couples place in me—and the friendships we build—that matter most.
From our first call to your final album, I personally guide every step.
No outsourcing.
No confusion.
Just authentic, heart-led service designed around you.
Let’s make something timeless together.
Because your wedding day deserves more than just documentation—it deserves DEVOTION.
"How wonderful to be who I am, made out of earth and water, my own thoughts, my own fingerprints — all that glorious, temporary stuff."
- MARY OLIVER
