When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me. She curated a family shot list, and let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her and her team were amazing.

We were so thrilled to have Madison as our wedding photographer. From our engagement shoot to the wedding at Fort Adams, she was a total pleasure to work with. We had a little rust being in front of the camera, but one of Madison’s great skills is making you feel comfortable, natural, and helping to pose you. On top of being a pro at what she does, Madison is super down to earth and easy to be around. She also has a great sense of humor and kept us laughing throughout our shoots. Madison nailed the timing of everything on our wedding day — we got the photos we wanted without feeling rushed or missing out on time with each other or our families.

Hi, I’m Nicole (she/her) - a Rhode Island-based wedding photographer. I have more than a decade of experience shooting weddings of all kinds - and today, I work collaboratively with my couples to create photos that evoke how their day felt. Photos of honest and emotional interactions; small details that hold weight and meaning; effortless portraits that capture the feel of the surrounding space or landscape. The result is a narrative visual story of enduring human connections, and a chronicle of emotional moments that they can revisit time and time again.

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly cannot say enough about our experience working with Nicole for our wedding!! From start to finish, she was professional, kind, and just incredibly talented. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera which was one of our main concerns, and this really showed in the photos. Nicole made the whole process so easy and enjoyable. She really helped us with planning out our timeline and making sure we had time to actually enjoy our day, not just pose for photos. Her attention to detail and calming presence made everything run so smoothly. She blended in seamlessly to the day, but was also there to direct and assert herself when we needed her to without even having to ask. We had multiple family members and friends compliment how well she directed the day and how she made everyone feel so comfortable! Getting our photos back was so exciting and seeing how they came out made us feel so overjoyed and just allowed us to relive all the feelings of that day over and over again. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to capture our wedding day. She’s amazing, and we’ll cherish these photos forever!!

Highly recommend Bayless Photography! The entire Bayless Photography team was a pleasure to work with and we are so happy with how our wedding photos came out. Crissy was always so kind, organized, and professional to work when planning the wedding. We were pleased to have our photos back only a few weeks after the wedding.

We felt very comfortable working with them. They gave direction when needed, helped us get every photo on our wish list while also captured lots of great candid moments.

Mallory was incredible! She rearranged my timeline when we were running late and still fit in pics with everyone important. She was helpful and responsive to my needs. She even took my dog to pee when nobody else was available and I was having trouble waking in my dress. She was fun to have at the wedding and had great prompts and energy that helped us get beautiful photos. Her editing style is so cool and helped bring my vision and vibe to life. She sent sneak peeks later in the night after my wedding and they are all stunning. I’m so happy we booked her for our fall wedding.

They were even able to incorporate our cranky old man cat into the photos, making him feel so special. As someone who is not very photogenic, I was nervous about being photographed, but I loved every single photo they captured of our family and me and my husband. Kalwood Photography is great at accommodating special requests - even when it comes to cranky old cats!

Take it from us - having Chris photograph our engagement, micro wedding, and vow renewal/celebration was a no brainer. We got married during the pandemic, so between planning, pivoting and rescheduling, he was very accommodating and easy to work with. He's quiet and friendly, seamlessly blending in with the crowd, which helps him to get the best candid shots of all of your loved ones. We never worried about Chris getting footage of every moment because we fully trusted him to do so. He captures every detail so beautifully as if he's telling a story. Can't thank him enough for carefully documenting the best days of our lives!

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Bristol, RI

I'm Kim Lyn, a girlboss photographer that loves romance and natural light. I think your photos deserve to be as amazing as your story. If I'm not behind a camera you may find me curled up with a book, sprawled out on the couch binging on crime or romance shows, and eating (basically anything deep fried, spicy, soupy, or chocolate covered). I have a slight addiction with Coca Cola + Mountain Dew...they are my version of coffee. I adore laughing and will dance no matter where I am. Give me the sun, sand, and coast and you'll make me a happy girl.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kim will be my photographer for life! Or, at least as long as she'll have me. I first met Kim when my husband and I were searching for wedding photographers. We absolutely loved her timeless style and were eager to get to know her. We met up at a coffee shop and instantly felt a connection. She then snapped some engagement photos, helping us with posing along the way. It was a good sign of things to come! On our wedding day, Kim and Shiloh put us totally at ease. It was like they'd always been our best friends. They were warm and sweet and helped us cherish the day, all while keeping us to our schedule and getting us all the shots they promised with professionalism and clarity. When we ultimately got our photos back, we were so in love with how they'd captured the day. They say that your wedding photographer is your best investment - we couldn't agree more! My only disappointment was that we wouldn't be able to work with them again. A year or so later, though, I decided to gift my husband a boudoir album for his 30th birthday. I was so excited to be in front of Kim's camera again. She helped me feel so confident and made sure I was having fun. I'll also reiterate that she was incredibly professional and so timely. I look forward to the next chapter of my husband and I's life so we can have it captured by Kim and Shiloh. They are truly so talented at seizing life's most beautiful, precious moments. I can't speak enough to the relationship we were able to build with Kim and Shiloh. When you hire them, you're not just hiring a vendor. You're hiring a friend. That's exactly who you want by your side on the biggest days of your life - someone you can trust, someone who loves you for you, and someone who wants the very best for you. You will, without a doubt, get that and more with Kim Lyn Photography.

I found myself photographing weddings 5 years ago. Before that I was into documentary and travel photography. I traveled the world doing it. My passion for love stories began after a friend asked me to photograph their wedding. It was the most intimate experience for me, the deep connection and the responsibility I was granted by my friend felt nothing but honorable. After that I decided to give it a go. Fast forward, today my style is candid and non-obtrusive and of course I work with posing and I’m really good at giving people directions. My passion is to observe my subjects and capture them in a very natural, honest and uncontrived way.

Marilia Lima Photography was a wonderful choice for our wedding photographer. Marilia was clear, organized, and professional in their communication with us throughout the entire process. Their work is meaningful, intentional and one of a kind. We selected them for their style which is natural, candid, and dreamy. Marilia was present and patient with Patrick, me and our families throughout the whole day, helping to capture the day with ease and grace. It was end of June and a little drizzly and Marilia embraced this and was able to capture some truly stunning detail shots in the rain. We did not do a first look so we did all our pictures after the ceremony and it never felt rushed; we were very at peace and were even able to make it to the cocktail hour. We were grateful for this. Marilia offers film as part of their standard packages, and I would highly recommend including this - one of my favorite shots so far is one they got of us under my veil on film. I highly recommend Marilia Lima Photography for your wedding day. Adding a few of the shots we got back on film below.

Tired of not seeing yourselves represented in the wedding industry? Welcome to the RTP fam - we're a husband and wife duo shooting a combination of digital, film and Polaroid photos so that your gallery will deliver all the vibes and capture your sick, nontraditional love. And because of all the time we'll spend together getting to know you and crafting the perfect photo timeline for your day, you'll feel like we're just your two best friends there to capture the moments. No matter your size, race, gender, sexual orientation or religion, we're here to hype you up as you share all your wildest wedding ideas with us!

How do we even begin to explain how much we love Rhode Tripper Photography? If you’re reading this while considering booking them for your wedding - FULL STOP, JUST DO IT. Meaghan and Evan are two of the most lovely people we have met. Once we had our wedding date, they were the first vendor that we booked for our big day. From the very first meeting, we felt completely at ease talking to them about our vision, our budget, and what we wanted the day to feel like. They are super well connected in the wedding industry, and had lots of recommendations for other vendors when we felt overwhelmed. Initially we opted to skip an engagement shoot, but ended up reaching out to book one so that we’d have a little practice posing. It felt right for us as it gave us a chance to meet Meaghan and Evan and see how we felt behind the camera. They made us feel comfortable right from the start, and while we initially booked it just for practice, we were stunned by how beautiful the photographs came out. We knew immediately we’d made the right choice in booking Rhode Tripper Photography and ended up extending our wedding day coverage. We just couldn’t get enough of their gorgeous style and eye for detail. Leading up to the wedding, Meaghan and Evan were available for all of our questions and planning details. Meaghan ended up assembling a wedding timeline that even our event planners were blown away by. You can tell she knows what she’s doing (spoiler - the timeline was perfect down to the minute). On the day of the wedding, we felt completely relaxed and honestly just giddy to be around Meaghan and Evan. They brought such a fun and light energy to our day and blended in seamlessly with our friends and family. When we needed a leader in the chaos, they were there to make announcements and call people to step up for photos and stay on track. When we were on the dance floor, they blended in like they were lifelong friends dancing with all of us. When pollen from my flowers stained my dress, Meaghan had a Shout wipe ready - and did you know that Shout wipes work way better on a wedding dress than a Tide pen? MEAGHAN KNEW. We could truly go on forever about how much we love Rhode Tripper Photography, but we’ll let their gorgeous photos speak for themselves. We were delighted to get a stack of beautiful Polaroids at the end of the night, a stunning sneak peek the next day, and we can’t wait to see the way they captured the rest of the day. We’ll be gushing about them forever to everyone we know!!

Hi, I'm Kate! I am a full time photographer based in RI. I photograph hybrid 35mm film and digital portraits. I travel throughout New England and love working with fun, adventurous couples. Most of my work has a very natural feel to it. I capture moments, making for a very lighthearted, low stress day. I am a roll-with-the-punches sort of person, which comes in handy since no wedding day ever goes totally to plan! I focus on the joy, laughter, gratitude and everything in between! We’ll probably go adventuring a bit to get some really cool shots. We will definitely laugh a lot. Sound good? Check out my portfolio or get in touch to chat more!

If you’re considering booking Polar Square Designs, just do it! Kate was so responsive, professional, helpful and flexible. Neither my husband nor I love having our photos taken (especially in public) but Kate made us feel totally comfortable on our engagement shoot at the beach and we ended up with some incredible shots. The turnaround time to get our whole gallery back was so quick. Leading up to our wedding, Kate’s questionnaire helped us nail down what shots we really wanted and the timeline she came up with was very helpful! On our wedding day, Kate and the second shooter Allison worked together so well and made sure we got all the shots we wanted! Everything flowed perfect and they did an amazing job capturing our best day ever! We received a bunch of “sneak peek” images less than 24 hours after our wedding and they’re all so good! Kate’s creativity and skill are evident in the results. I highly recommend Polar Square Designs!

We first met Morayo when we used her as our engagement photographer, she worked with us to adapt and find a new site (twice) when the weather kept ruining our plans. Morayo met us close to our home and did a beautiful rose garden shoot with us. Then when the pandemic hit she was reassuring and flexible throughout our ever changing planning process. While we had to cancel our reception and had a smaller ceremony instead, Morayo was still able to capture our getting ready photos, ceremony and formal photos perfectly. Morayo was so fun to work with and really helped us relax in front of the camera. We loved working with Morayo and would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding, especially in these crazy times!

PLEASE FIND ME ON INSTAGRAM ( emilycrencaphotography ) OR MY WEBSITE AND INQUIRE THERE! THANK YOU ------------------------------------------------ I have this magic touch. I can't really explain it, except for however and whenever I do things they become Golden. I bring you out of your comfort zones, I am directive, and I am really passionate about creating your own story. I am your hype girl, your best friend you never knew you needed and I aim to be your forever photographer for all your milestones and not just your wedding day.

I first met Emily when we hired her to be our wedding photographer! I saw her work on Instagram and loved her style. I was nervous to get our engagement pictures done, I thought it was going to be uncomfortable and awkward. As soon as you meet Emily you will understand why she is so successful. She made me feel like we had been friends forever, giving a boast of confidence! She communicated with us multiple times before the wedding to make sure she understood the timeline and what we were looking for. The day of the wedding I specifically loved how she took charge. Acting almost as a wedding planner instead of just our photographer! It relieved a lot of my stress and allowed me to enjoy the day knowing she had things under control. She left a lasting impression with the wedding party and guests because of how personable she is and how she will do anything to get that perfect angle! The photos came out beautiful, like something out of a magazine. A few years later I hired her to take pregnancy boudoir photos, again knowing that she would make a normally awkward situation fun and exciting! If you need professional photos please consider Emily, you will understand what I mean after just one conversation with her. I highly recommend Emily Crenca Photography!

I have been shooting weddings, engagement sessions and family sessions all over New England since 2014. Every event I have shot feels like the first day of a new job to me: exciting, eye-opening, and full of potential. I love being exposed to new cultures and rituals, dance moves and family dynamics.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sara was amazing! It was our great pleasure to have her photograph our wedding! Just from the first time we spoke on the phone I had a good vibe from Sara! She made everyone feel comfortable. Sara seemed to capture the best moments. The pictures turned out astoundingly beautiful! If there was anything I needed an answer on she would get back to me promptly! Simply amazing work. 10/10 recommend. I would absolutely use Sara’s services in the future!

Hi hi, I’m Joy Imani (she/her). I capture real, heartfelt moments through digital and film photography. My work is all about connection, storytelling, and making you feel seen. With a name like mine it's hard not to use a pun in every sentence, but I truly do love to capture joy in all the forms that it comes, and each client that invites me to be a part of one of their most joyous days is an honor.

Joy has been there to photograph a few milestones in my life. She photographed my actual surprise engagement and eventually my engagement photoshoot for save the dates. She has a way of capturing love and life in a powerful way. She makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera and her love of the craft really shines through in her photos. 10/10 would recommend, every time.
