My name is Aaron Riddle and I am a professional photographer residing in Winchester, Virginia. I specialize in wedding photography, portrait photography and special event photography needs.
As a wedding photographer my style is unobtrusive, friendly photojournalism. I capture the spontaneous smiles, people living in the moment and details of your day as they naturally unfold. Your job is to relax and enjoy your wedding! My job is to document it for you to relive forever.

When designing many of the direct mail pieces that I do for my clients, one way to ensure certain trouble is not being aware of the many regulations put in place by the United States Postal Service (USPS). Fortunately there is a valuable face-to-face resource that I use which is offered for FREE by the USPS . . . the Mailpiece Design Analyst!

Project Details: Every special occasion that I celebrate with my wife (anniversaries, birthdays, holidays, etc.), I make it a point to create a custom card for her featuring a personal illustration. This illustration was done for her most recent birthday card this past February. The theme of her card for this year was two white rats in birthday hats. You are probably asking, why white rats?

Project Details: This is a logo that I created for an Educational Foundation’s fundraising campaign. The campaign started in 2007 and is scheduled to run through 2009. I was provided only with the text “Invest. Impact. Inspire.” to work with, and told to create a logo concept for the Foundation that would appear on fundraising materials, publications and solicitations.

Project Details: This is an early freelance illustration from my college years. Due to the fact that this project was done when I first entered the freelance market, I do not have the details regarding the illustration (I was not yet documenting all facets of a project as I do now). I do know that the drawing was done for a Web site in early 2001 for a client via e-mail, centered around the theme of kids who fight aliens in space. The illustration was sketched, scanned and then digitally colored using Photoshop.

Client: Langford Home Sales (Natalie Langford)
Project Details: Natalie Langford of Langford Homes Sales contacted me via twitter to help brand her real estate company with a fresh logo. After meeting with Natalie and thinking about her philosophy as a real estate agent and home buyer / seller service provider, I kept coming back to the imagery of trees and leaves.
To me a tree / leaf represents growth, which is one of Natalie’s major selling points. Natalie helps her clients “grow” by giving them knowledge regarding the real estate market. Natalie is also an avid learner and teacher constantly seeking to learn more about the newest trends and ways to excel in the real estate market. Therefore her company is constantly growing in knowledge.
