Hands down the best photographers in the D.C. area. Lionel accompanied us on our elopement in Miami, and I could not have dreamed of how fabulous the photos turned out. Lionel's artistry is unsurpassed. And, if you are lucky enough to get both of them shooting your wedding, you will not be disappointed. More...

I can't believe I didn't think to write a review for Lionel and Kristiaan sooner! It all began when they photographed us for our wedding. Starting with our engagement photos their photography of our wedding was fantastic! I am certain their amazing photography is what caught the eye of The Knot editors and we had a four page spread in The Knot. Since our wedding, we have had multiple family sessions with the Madious with the birth of our first and second children. We moved to California after our third child and we are so sad that we won't have the Madious to continue taking our family pictures through the years. They are incredibly creative and talented and kind and patient. Also, they make you feel at ease which is so important to get the best photos. They are great with capturing the perfect kids photo too from babies to toddlers and beyond. More...

Kristiaan and Lionel were a PERFECT fit for my husband and I! We were lucky enough to be able to work with them for our Engagement Shoot and our Wedding Day! I was nervous about posing and looking awkward but as soon as we began our adventure of an Engagement Shoot, they put us at such ease! They kept us smiling and laughing and just let us settle into it and just be ourselves, together. When we moved to the ice rink, Kristiaan patiently (and stealthily) caught great shots of us through the crowd and Lionel even strapped on a pair of skates and somehow managed to shoot while not falling! The result were amazing pictures that our friends loved because they said it was natural and captured how we truly were together. And I love that they were able to draw that out of us and shoot it beautifully! And we had an incredibly fun time!
Now on our wedding day, they were such a joy and comfort to have around! And they went above and beyond...Lionel made a special trip to retrieve my veil and Kristiaan was the one who kindly and carefully placed the veil on my head! My family & friends loved them- they were so accommodating and genuine ninjas. Somehow they were everywhere at the same time without being in the way of anyone or anything!! The pictures we've seen so far are GORGEOUS and capture amazing moments that I'll treasure always! Having their energy and spirit at the wedding only added to the fun and by the end of it all- they're truly friends with amazing artistry and talent! You won't have to worry about anything once you're in their hands. They will be sure to capture the joy and love on your wedding day so you can always relive it through their gorgeous photography! We love you Kristiaan & Lionel! Thank you both so much!

I was tempted to leave this review after I got my preview pics, but just in case I wanted to wait for the full set. Just as I expected, they came out AMAZING. I can't stop staring at them and I honestly do feel like I relive moments from the day whenever I stare at them. The pictures are stunning, and Kristiaan and Lionel stand out in terms of the personal interest they took not only in photographing our wedding, but also to getting to know us as people (up to and including meeting us in person to look at the slideshow of images and give us the hard drive of the digital prints).

We love the Madious! They took the time to meet with us in person in advance of our wedding to get to know our personalities and take some practice shots (mostly to get my husband and I comfortable with being photographed so that our wedding photos would turn out as natural as possible). On the wedding day, they were there at every special moment and captured the most beautiful shots, both posed and candids, of us, our family, and our friends. And we had so much fun with them! Not only are they incredibly personable and fun, they're everywhere, but not in your face, and by the end of the night, we felt like they were just another two of best friends having a blast on the dance floor. They were such a special part of our big day and have given us beautiful shots of the people most important to us to remember all the fun we had and all the love surrounding that day. More...

I cannot emphasize enough how much we LOVE Kristiaan and Lionel. They are an amazing duo. My husband's sister used them for their wedding and we had our heart set on them once we got engaged. We shopped around at first just to see what was out there since our wedding date for them was unavailable. We were so disappointed. Then when we found out that Kristiaan and Lionel were available we felt like the stars had aligned and the search stopped right at that moment. Working with Kristiaan and Lionel was so delightful and easy. They blend in wonderfully with family and friends so much that they make everyone so comfortable to be around them! You can tell they are passionate about their work and making sure they deliver their very best. They are dedicated to ensuring you are relaxed throughout your entire wedding day (Lionel at one point even let me use his coat because I was cold!) - That's genuine character! They are so much fun to work with, have an amazing way of capturing every moment, and really take the time to get to know you not just as their clients. We truly believe they are the best photographers out there! Their talent is remarkable. You are missing out if you don't utilize them for your wedding. You can't go wrong! They embody everything photographers should be and more, so if you are able to book them do not hesitate because you will not be disappointed with their amazing work. More...

Before I delve into the vendor-specific review, I want to say one thing. If you are getting married, you will spend more time with your photographers than your family and friends. Make sure it is someone you get along with! I think the Madious will tell you the same thing. If there is one thing you should make sure is high-quality, it is photography. And the Madious are top-notch. Not to mention, their dog is adorable :)

I was interested in their photography because a) the quality is wonderful, particularly nighttime shots which are a good mark of distinction in my mind. b)on their website, they say "our mission is to capture to wedding so when you look at our images, it's as if you were there." I definitely had that feeling. They have a journalistic style and are particularly good at capturing emotion and natural moments. And the colors!!!

From the moment we booked them, we felt like their only client. They are very flexible and don't charge by the hour, which honestly is crucial because you never know how your day is going to go, so having one vendor there from the start to finish of when you need them, without stressing about timelines, is crucial. You also get BOTH of them. What a treat! It's not like one main photographer and an assistant - you get two highly qualified photographers of equal caliber but distinct, complementary styles. Plus they're husband and wife and love each other so much, which makes everyone's day so much more enjoyable.

We met a few times, once for the engagement shoot, and once before the wedding to figure out the portrait list and timing of the day. Having the extra face time before the wedding is so nice, but I know it's not always possible, it just so happened that we had the benefit of being local so that helped a lot.

The Madious are like family to me now. I would recommend them to any person who could fit them into their budget. It is money well-spent.

You spend so much time with your photographers on your wedding day, and you want to make sure they are not only capturing great photos, but keeping you calm. They did that and more! The Madious recommended doing a private first look, which as the best decision we made for our wedding. Kristiaan and Lionel rode with each of us there and kept us SO calm. By the end of the night, they felt like another member of our family! They do an incredible job capturing beautiful portraits (how do they even think of some of these shots!?) while also taking beautiful, candid photos. By far the best vendor for our wedding! More...

Worth EVERY penny! This review is long overdue. My husband and I were married last July and we hired Kristiaan and Lionel to do our engagement and wedding photography. Looking online I couldn't find a photographer whose images spoke to me until I found The Madious. Their photography makes you FEEL something whether you know the couple or not. They capture the emotion of a moment and that is what we wanted the most. These two are warm and fun and made us feel comfortable from the first meeting. Our entire wedding party and guests just loved them and the end results.... breathtaking! Thank you Kristiaan and Lionel for capturing memories that we get to cherish for the rest of our lives.

The Madious... where do I even begin? I came across Lionel and Kristiaan's work by pure luck! I had been scouring the internet for images of our ballroom and stumbled upon a wedding The Madious had done at the venue we had selected. I quickly fell in love with their website/work, and we scheduled to meet with them shortly thereafter. We didn't meet with many photographers, but from the start, Lionel and Kristiaan stood out! There was no debating whether or not we would hire them after that! Based on their suggestion, we purchased the package that included an engagement session which was definitely worth it! We became more familiar with them, their style, and being in front of the camera, which was so much better than walking into our wedding without that experience and knowledge. As a result, we had a bunch of interactions with them leading up to our wedding. Come our wedding day, they were definitely more like friends, then someone we hired to photograph our wedding. They also quickly blended in with our bridal party, parents, and guests. My Mom, who has quickly become one of their biggest fans, will tell anyone that it was as if they were part of the family!

Regarding their work ethic/attitude - well they both will do pretty much anything for a shot! Hanging off a dock, laying in a puddle, you name it! And, the pictures are simply amazing. I feel like I can relive the whole day through merely the pictures which is AMAZING as we didn't have a videographer. Their website says, "we believe your wedding images should allow you to feel what it was like to be there." Lionel and Kristiaan definitely gave us that! You can truly feel the love, laughter, and happiness that we and our guests experienced that day by simply scrolling through our photo gallery. I do not see how anyone would be disappointed with their work. Hiring them was definitely one of the best decisions we made, and we look forward to using them in the future!

We fell in love with Kristiaan and Lionel from the minute that we met them. They took the time to personalize our meeting and really understand what we wanted our wedding pictures to portray. Words cannot to describe how AMAZING our pictures looked from our big day. They truly retold the whole story of the night, capturing so much love, happiness, laughter, and candid moments that as a typical wedding couple , we missed. We posted our pictures on facebook and sent them to our guests. The feedback we received was so overwhelming..."The best wedding album EVER", " Gorgeous gorgeous pictures, we love every picture"...What makes The Madious stand out from all the other photographers , aside from their amazing mad talent, is their attention to detail and that they personalize all of their photos to the bride and groom rather than the same photos/poses for each couple.

We could not be more thrilled about these two! They are incredibly talented photographers and we knew that we were going to get the highest quality photos to remember our wedding. They have a commitment not only to take incredibly beautiful and artistic portraits, but to capture the important moments that you don't see or notice (because the day flies by!). This is something they communicated to us when we first met with them, but seeing that in execution, they truly walk the talk.

Looking at the gallery of photos they sent us, it was like seeing the best day of our lives from a completely different perspective, just priceless. I tear up every time because they captured not only the moment, but the *feeling* experienced in those moments. Family and friends say to us that they've never seen wedding photos like this before. They're distinct from traditional wedding photography. They like to experiment with the portraits and manage to make even people uncomfortable with being photographed feel comfortable and have fun during the whole process.

Also, one of the amazing things about their policy is that they're with you from beginning to end on the best day of your life. Typically, you only get a photographer for 8 or so hours and then you pay extra for more hours. What's great about the Madious' policy is that you don't have to negotiate the hours. They WANT to be there for everything and they have so much energy throughout. They take a lot of pride and joy in their work - both the process and the outcome.

Beyond their incredible talent, they’re amazing people. When you hire a photographer, you're not only hiring someone to capture your day, you're also hiring people who will be spending more time with you during the day than your family or your fiance. We knew the moment we met them, that we wanted them to be a part of the day.

Can't recommend them more highly!

We absolutely loved working with Lionel and Kristiaan at Eyewonder. They made us feel very comfortable, which was really important to us (we were actually pretty nervous about taking photos! ). It was cool to work with a married couple as well because they could model the poses they wanted us to do, and it all felt really natural. We took our engagement photos with them in DC, but we brought them to Florida to photograph our wedding. While we hired them for a standard wedding package (including engagement photos), they were willing (and did not charge us extra) to photograph any event we wanted while they were in Florida. We had a "wedding weekend" full of events, and they photographed everything (Rehearsal Dinner, Welcome Party, Wedding Day, Brunch, and we even did a Day After bride and groom photo shoot). The value was amazing and they were in such great spirits. They were also the life of the party and so many of our wedding guests came up to me to specifically remark on how great and fun Lionel and Kristiaan were.

Even more, the photos they took were simply amazing. Kristiaan and Lionel have a great eye for artistic and beautiful photos; and they did not disappoint. They spent their downtime scouting out places to take photos, and they had a clear vision for every photo in advance. One of my friends has told me that our wedding photos are the best she has ever seen. I can't say enough how much fun it was to work with this team, and I'm so glad to have these amazing photos to remember our wedding weekend forever. Lionel and Kristiaan - you guys are simply the best.

Lionel and Kristiaan are AMAZING and we're so grateful that we were able to work with them. Full disclosure: I hate getting my picture taken, awkwardly posing and whatnot. But taking pictures with them was such an easy, painless and enjoyable process. They have a real rapport with you, immdiately, that puts you completely at ease -- and they also have an innate ability to capture natural moments between you and your fiancee/husband/partner that you don't see in a lot of other photography. To quote one of our friends "I hate engagement photos, they're so cheesy - but I LOVED yours!". They're just able to do something special with it that sets it apart from all the other wedding photography you see out there.

I'd definitely recommend doing the package that includes engagement photos because it really allows you to get to know them -- by the time we actually had our wedding, Lionel and Kristiaan felt like old friends, which made it all the more enjoyable.

In closing, do it. They're amazing. They'll go above and beyond for you throughout the entire process, whether it's crawling into a barbwire fence (this happened) to get an amazing shot or climbing a ladder to take a picture of all your wedding guests (which looked incredible).

Lionel and Kristiaan are amazing, we can not say enough wonderful things about the couple. They are professional and responsive, but are also just two amazing people who love what they do. All of our guests loved them as much as we did!! More...

Kristiaan and Lionel are truly the best wedding photographers out there. They are a husband and wife team, so you get two talented photographers for the price of one - they really play off each other, finding the perfect shots that balance creativity and tradition. They also made us feel comfortable for this reason as we planned our shots for the engagement sesion and wedding (eg, they could "pose" and demostrate). They are however, more than just wedding photographers - they will help you get ready, calm your nerves, look after you if things go awry.... Kristiaan felt like a third bridesmaid to me! My family went out of their way to comment on how they felt "part of the wedding." They didn't even get impatient when our families started asking for group pictures after dinner (with the requisite time spent rallying each respective group). And above all, their photos are stunning. If you are looking for top-rate wedding photographers with creativity and flare, Kristiaan and Lionel are for you. More...

Their photographs really are works of art! Very different, SO creative, and they really capture a fun mood between you and our significant other. Definitely take a look at their blog, website and facebook page and you will get a feel for Kristiaan and Lionel's work. Unfortunately I only used them for engagement photos but I LOVE how they turned out. It was easy to figure out a plan for the photos and location and K and L were full of great ideas. It was a blast and I have been recommending them to everyone that I know. More...

Lionel and Kristiaan complement each other.

They have an eye for capturing not only the visual imagery of the day, but also the emotion. They find a way to blend in to the environment so as not to interfere with the flow and feel of the event.

Artistic, graceful, and classy. They're not the same old stale wedding photography that just anyone can do. They're able to pull together images that would be missed by most.

I love them both and could not imagine having anyone else help us document such a special event. We'll treasure their work for years to come.

Kristiaan and Lionel provided an amazing service to our wedding - they were very unobtrusive, but somehow managed to capture not only the big "official" moments, but also a lot of the really touching informal moments that I otherwise wouldn't have seen. Their love of their work and their enthusiasm is a huge plus and the confidence they instilled was a welcome point of calm in an otherwise hectic day. Couldn't imagine a better experience. More...

I researched far and wide before choosing Kristiaan & Lionel to photograph our wedding.  We liked them so much, that we even flew them to our destination wedding instead of choosing someone local.  Why did we like them so much? 1. The quality of the photos speaks for itself. In addition to the 'mom portraits' that you will inevitably want to take, they create absolutely stunning images that will help you see your day in a whole new way. If you haven't already checked out their blog, do it now.2. With wedding photographers, the process would be as important as the final product You won't end up with quality images at the end of the day if you don't feel comfortable, relaxed and able to be yourself around your photographer. Kristiaan and Lionel are utmost professionals, but are also relaxed, personable, and easy to get along with. The results speak for themselves - happy couple, happy family, and gorgeous memories that we will always cherish. More...
