ABOUT 

Vicki Grafton is a wedding and micro-wedding photographer based in Virginia, serving Washington DC, Maryland, New York, and destinations worldwide. With over 15 years of experience and more than 300 celebrations photographed, she is known for refined, emotionally resonant imagery for intimate weddings where atmosphere, hospitality, and design are deeply considered.




Drawn to film for its depth and permanence, Vicki believes the most meaningful photographs reflect not only how a celebration looked, but how it felt to be present within it. Blending film with digital precision, she creates luminous, true to life imagery rich in texture and subtle nuance. Her background in destination event planning informs her intuitive understanding of flow, timing, and hospitality; she moves through each celebration with calm discretion, collaborating seamlessly with planners while allowing couples to remain immersed in the people and moments that matter most.

Her appreciation for intimate destination gatherings is also personal. In 2008, she planned her own wedding in Bali and returned in 2023 for a vow renewal; experiences that continue to shape her sensitivity to atmosphere, travel, and the significance of gathering with intention.

Outside of weddings, Vicki is a mother to twin boys and a dedicated supporter of animal welfare, contributing to local rescue organizations throughout Virginia.
