Seth Ratliff Photography

Wedding photographer based in Fredericksburg, VA

I’m Seth - a Fredericksburg, VA based wedding photographer with a documentary-inspired approach, focusing on real moments and a stress free experience. I capture weddings honestly and naturally, without making them feel like a production. Your wedding gallery should feel like you, not stiff and posed.


My goal is to keep things simple so you can stay present and enjoy your day. The result is a timeless wedding gallery with true-to-life color, built around real moments, genuine emotion, and natural connection.

"I had the honor of having Seth as my wedding photographer and let me start by saying WOW! Seth is extremely talented and truly has a passion for the craft. My now husband and I were in awe of his work with natural colors and light that from our first meeting with him, we knew he was the photographer for us. He is so easy to work with. He has great communication, he listens and provides excellent guidance wherever you need it. One of our favorite things about him is that his creativity is endless! Trying new things lead to some our best and favorite photos that really capture the moment. From our engagement session to our big day, he just made this whole experience so stress free and I would absolutely hire him all over again!"

"We are so thankful to Seth for stepping in as our photographer at the last minute when our original photographer had an emergency on the day of our wedding. Even though it was unexpected, Seth jumped right in and did an amazing job. He was calm, professional, and really knew what he was doing. From the ceremony to the reception, he captured every moment perfectly, even though he didn't have a second shooter. The photos turned out beautiful, and we couldn't be happier with them."
