Our son recently had a Bar Mitzvah and we used Washington Talent Agency for our DJ, photography, and video needs. This is the second time we used Washington Talent for a Bar Mitzvah. We used the same photographer (Riza )and the same DJ's (Zach and Carroll) as before and once again they were fabulous! We highly recommend Washington Talent!

Washington Talent Agency was amazing! We booked both our band and the rolling photo booth through them for our wedding. They were so professional throughout the whole process and we will 100% use them again for any future need. We went with Spectrum band and they did NOT disappoint. The band was super important to me and my husband. When we were searching for a band, we saw a total of 7 in person and 3 of them were WTA bands.

All of the WTA bands were better than the other 4, but we felt Spectrum fit what we were looking for the best. They were willing to learn any song, extremely easy to work with, sounded amazing the entire time, and had SO much energy. They played during our reception, ceremony, and cocktail hour and it was all great. Two weeks later and guests are still telling us about how amazing the band was.

We keep saying we want another wedding just to hire Spectrum again. We were really unsure and hesitant about spending money on a photo booth but we are so glad we did. We didn't need a back drop or a space blocked off because an employee provided by WTA rolled it around the whole venue. This was great because she was getting all of our guests into it and made sure to reach everyone. It ended up being a huge hit and we got so many fun pictures out of it.

Washington Talent did an excellent job with my daughters Bat Mitzvah. Alison was amazing and so in tune with our family. Our pictures were beautiful and I would definitely use Alison again for our next family event.

We used WTA for my daughters Bat Mitzvah and they were wonderful to work with. Alison Trembly was our photographer and the pictures are absolutely stunning. Not only are the photos gorgous but Alison was so incredibly to work with! Chad was our MC and our party would not have been complete without him. He brought so much energy and life to the party! We cannot wait to do our next Mitzvah with these two amazing people!

We had an incredible experience with Alison Tremblay at Washington Talent. She is super talented, easy-going, fun, creative and was able to be so flexible in these challenging times. We adored having her by our side, through every step of my son's bar mitzvah with lots of pivots and wrinkles. She and her photos are the best!

BEST IN CLASS PHOTOGRAPHY! Look no further than Jack Hartzman if you want the most professional, calming and charismatic photographer. As a marketing executive for luxury/lifestyle brands, I had high expectations, with a keen eye for photography and he nailed it. My entire family and all of our guests at my son's bar mitzvah were so impressed with him during the dress rehearsal shoot and at the event.

As for WTA's staff, I can't thank the team enough for being so supportive throughout such an exhausting planning process. Very personalized attention. It could have gotten very ugly. We faced multiple challenges and pivoted way too many times to keep track. Jake Sherman was able to "keep up" with my quick pivots and "keep up" our spirits, in the wake of all the other chaos he had to manage besides just ours. We are basically besties now.

I worked with Toby Angel as the primary, with Alison Tremblay helping with the portraits, for my daughter's Bat Mitzvah. We just got the proofs and EACH PICTURE IS MORE GORGEOUS THAN THE NEXT. In addition, they are a class act all the way. So responsive, flexible, easy to work with, eager to please, reassuring, and put everyone at ease. I had many problems with many vendors throughout this process, but I can say that working with this photography team, with Toby taking the lead, was top notch, all the way. And the results are beautiful!

We had the best time at our daughter's bat mitzvah with Washington Talent Agency. Ricardo is an incredible photographer and person to be around! He captured all the moments, big and small and was fun to work with. He made the kids and adults feel comfortable. He was responsive, on time, unobtrusive and always available during the event and for questions before and follow up after. MC Rapp was also amazing!

He became friends with all the kids immediately and they all entered the party happily and comfortably with him while the adults were able to enjoy their time during cocktail hour, kid-free (a huge plus for everyone!) He had the whole party up and dancing for hours - from age 5-78! WTA was an overall pleasure to work with and made our event so easy and fun. The best way to have a party. Happily we have 2 more kids and will be calling on Ricardo, MC Rapp and Shana again for their mitzvahs!

Washington Talent agency is very professional and will do all they can to make your event perfect! We specifically had DJ Jake for our wedding this May and he was not only there for us on the day of the event but also months leading up to it. With all the COVID restrictions and constant changes with our venue, my husband and I would reach out to him about how we can still make our wedding fun and every time he was always so positive and upbeat, we would get off the phone feeling good about our wedding again.

At one point we were not going to be able to have any dancing unless it was outside and Jake said, "Don't worry about it, I will bring the equipment to set up inside and outside and we will make it work, your day is going to be fun and perfect." And of course it did all work out! The wedding was perfect and everyone danced all night! DJ Jake is awesome! And we highly recommend him or anyone with WTA.

I knew that we were in good hands with Alison Tremblay photographing our son's bar mitzvah. We are repeat customers, having worked with her 4 years ago for our daughter's bat mitzvah. As expected, she directed the photo shoot and made it easy for us. She captured some beautiful and creative photos that speak for themselves. And, Marcie Robinson, in the WTA office handled the details so that Alison could focus on photography. They are a great team, and I would work with them again in a heartbeat.

I wish I could put 0 stars. I was not a customer of theirs, but unfortunately an employee. First off the tension around the head boss (Jack) and his family is so thick you can cut it with a knife. Completely awkward! I don't usually write reviews but I believe my story must be told. My employer at the time (Jack) had invited me to an event at college park to take pictures.

Later that day he spoke about my HAIR in front of everyone. Said that "you will never get a job with hair like that" I was appalled! I am African American and also Hispanic. I have coiled hair and my hair was in a high curly pony tail. I was speechless that something like that came out of he mouth. A completely racist comment in a time like this! After the insult was over he called it a joke and did not apologize.

After the job his daughter then steps out with me and tells me not to wear a sports bra to work.then continues to tell me what kind of bra to wear to work. Once again, appalling! I've never been told in any work environment what bra to wear. After that I felt absolutely uncomfortable around them and asked to work with others. They didn't respect my request so we had a meeting.

I expressed how I felt and Jack gave me a back handed apology. Also explained that I couldn't be mentored by anyone else but him, which even today just sounds strange to me. I hope someone will see this and will be able to relate or speak up. Racism in my own neighborhood, complete ignorance!
