I started my photography journey by shooting sports, events, and headshots for local newspapers and businesses. But for the past 2-3 years, I fell in love with documenting weddings and creating timeless images for my couples. 
&nbsp;
As a reserved and introverted guy, I know a thing or two about how to feel less awkward in front of a camera. I'm based in Hagerstown, Maryland, but you can find me shooting across the U.S. and worldwide.
&nbsp;
I offer a variety of photography packages and can include a video option if requested. You'll find me to be pretty laid back and friendly towards everyone I meet on your wedding day.

Engagement Session Giveaway

Wornden was amazing to work with for our engagement photos. He was very easy-going and pretty much let us do whatever we wanted but also provided guidance whenever we needed it. His style is more candid, which was the vibe we wanted to go for. We were BLOWN AWAY and really happy with the outcome of our photos!

Yina & Norman

Wornden did an amazing job with our engagement photoshoot! We absolutely loved our gallery, he made us feel super comfortable and guided us with our posing! We will cherish these photos forever!

Flavia & Jose

Wornden was a pleasure to work with! We booked him last minute for a post-wedding photo shoot and love our photos. We spoke beforehand to go over what we wanted to get from the session, and Wornden pulled through. His photos were creative, had great lighting, and really captured the moment.

Ruth & Fish

Wornden is a top class, A+ natural and gifted at taking photos. His editorial style and clean cut aesthetic made him our first choice for our engagement and wedding photos. He has not disappointed us at all. He made our day both occasions, offered support for building our photo timeline, and surprised us with an additional intern shooter to make the day smoother. While we could have chose anyone, we connected with Wornden on a hometown level and shared a vision. Thank you Wornden!

Syd & Pat

My husband and I highly recommend Wornden to take your pictures! He has been our photographer for everything - from our engagement to our wedding to even our family photoshoots. Wornden is kind, punctual, patient, super fun and one of the best photographers we know. He will take great care of you if you need any photos done!

Angie & Andre

It was such a pleasure to work with Wornden! He was super flexible, organized, and easy to work with! 10/10 would recommend!

Washington DC & Destination Wedding Photographer

I am a wedding photographer based in Maryland but serving mainly in Washington DC. I also travel in and out of the US to shoot weddings for my couple. My personality is kind, genuine, and laid back, while also keeping it professional. My general writing style is simple and easy to understand. I generally write how I speak, but I do keep it concise to avoid confusing people when they are on my website. I want to be warm and welcoming, but not over the top when couples go on my website and read to learn more about me and what I offer.
