Hi West Virginia! ✨ I figured now would be a great time to re-introduce myself and my company. I’m Bridget Palacios (happily married to my husband!), owner of Bridget Hernandez Photography.

My company was inspired my late father (he passed away in 2021), who was my biggest supporter in photography. I decided to make it official and start this business 1 year after he passed away in 2022, as a way to make him proud in Heaven but to continue pursuing my passion. In 2023, I put my business on pause as I became pregnant with our daughter, gave birth in 2024, and now we’ve moved to our first home in July 2025. It’s been a little over a month since we’ve moved in and now I’m ready to get back into my passion, now that she is a bit older (almost 17 months old) and we’re fully settled in.

You’ll find me as your local portrait + event photographer here in Charles Town. I’m beyond excited to start capturing memories for couples, families, and those who fly solo, in this beautiful area. 💛

Drop a 👋🏼 if you’re local!

Good evening friends!! I wanted to share an amazing and fun opportunity that I was offered (and completed) this morning……

I had the opportunity to be on Fox 5 DC this morning with Gwen Tolbart FOX 5 DC and Maureen Umeh FOX 5 DC along with two other wonderful female photographers, TaNia Ni-Ni and Marijke Photography . We did a live segment for National Women’s History Month: Women in Photography.
