My favorite part of every session is being able to capture special moments in others' lives that they can share, celebrate, and remember.
I am a portrait photographer based in the Washington, D.C. area. I capture graduations, professional headshots, birthdays, Couples - anniversaries and engagements, and brands/commercial photography.

Sanchez media is great!! Elijah has been amazing to work with! I’ve worked with him since he began his business and I must say that his work is better than a lot of the photographers out there. I have referred him to so many of my friends because his work is amazing! More...

Sanchez was great! Got exactly what I needed quickly and at a great rate.
What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Communication! Good communication is key before and during a shoot/event. If you have a vision or details for your shoot it helps a lot to provide thorough details so I can capture the best photos for you. During the shoot, I will give you directions on posing and it helps when I am able to receive feedback. If you are not use to being in front of the camera or posing, relaying that to me helps me to adjust and help you so we can have a smooth experience.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
I have several standard questions I ask everyone before we agree to work together:
- Do you have a date set
- Do you have a location set? If not, would you like me to recommend some locations?
- Are there any ideas or inspiration you'd like to share (Pinterest board, Instagram inspiration, mood board, etc.)
What do you love most about your job?
I love being able to capture special moments in other people's lives. I get excited being able to provide others with photos they can share, celebrate and remember!
