We’re Willow a local photo & video studio located in Rhode Island We’re a small team of photographers & filmmakers who believe that the industry should be different. Planning a wedding is a lot of hard work and can sometimes feel overwhelming and scary. Let’s face it, getting photographed for longer than an hour is scary, never mind 6-8 hours! Our team is focused on ensuring your day is captured while you’re enjoying the fun, not taking photos for 90% of your day. We’re not just some random people documenting it all, our goal is to feel like friends, just showing up to ensure your day is just as magical as you envisioned it to be.

“Where do I even begin? Kristen was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she was so communicative and organized. She checked in with us throughout the planning process, walked us through every checklist, made sure she knew exactly what we wanted, and somehow made the whole photography process feel completely stress-free. But beyond all of that, she's just an incredible human. She's kind, funny, encouraging, and has this energy that instantly makes you feel comfortable. Before the wedding, I opened up to her about a few insecurities I had as a bride, and she never made me feel silly for them. Instead, she quietly worked her magic with posing and angles so those areas were never the focus. I honestly can't thank her enough for that. As someone who's naturally pretty shy and anxious in front of a camera, I never once felt awkward. She made me feel confident without even trying. She spent the entire day hyping up both me and my husband, making us laugh, and somehow managed to be everywhere all at once. She captured the sweetest candid moments of our friends and family, and looking through our gallery felt like getting to experience parts of the day we missed because we were busy running around trying to hug everyone. It was such a gift. Then she sent us our gallery... with OVER 1,000 photos. And somehow there isn't a single one I don't love. Seriously, my phone storage is crying because I refuse to take any of them off my camera roll. Also... I have to mention the photography utility belt. My husband is still talking about how cool it was. It was honestly kind of badass. Kristen, thank you for making us feel so seen, so comfortable, and so celebrated. You didn't just take beautiful photos—you gave us the chance to relive the best day of our lives over and over again. We'll be recommending you to literally anyone who will listen (and probably showing our wedding photos to complete strangers for years to come). You are the absolute best.”

So when I got engaged, I reached out immediately, thankfully she was available for our date. From day one she was on it, quick to respond, incredibly thoughtful throughout our engagement, and clearly passionate about her craft (you can see it in her work, her IG, and the way she carries herself). On our wedding day she arrived early, brought extra styling items that made my detail shots stunning, and made my entire bridal party feel comfortable and beautiful. She kept me calm through planning and on the day itself, and everyone at our wedding adored her, I already have friends who want to book her. I had a specific vision for a few bridal party portraits and she nailed it. I can’t recommend Brianna enough, she’s amazing!”

“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.

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!!”

I think you might be here because you're a little turned off by performative wedding photography. Maybe you don't even want a wedding photographer, exactly. Maybe you just want a good photographer to photograph your wedding. A lot of the people I work with describe themselves as anti-bride. Not anti-wedding. They just don't want the day to feel like a list of things to get through.

“I had the pleasure of working with Madison this past summer for a wedding I was the florist for. As another vendor, I can't express how impressed I was with Maddie's demeanor for the day. She was such a joy to be around - she managed to be laid back yet kept the ball moving with the couples timeline. She found all the best lighting and scoped out all of the best backdrops for the couple and the end result was absolutely flawless! As a florist, I was blown away when she sent me the full album and had captured so many floral shots. I would love to work with Madison again in the future and would recommend her to all couples looking for a genuine, intuitive, talented and heartfelt photographer.”

“Choosing Lynne as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our special day! Lynne met with us beforehand to get an idea of what we were looking for in our pictures. We wanted something relaxed and natural that felt like us to capture our backyard wedding, and she delivered! Not only did she make us feel comfortable in front of the camera (something neither of us usually are!), she established a great rapport with our guests throughout the day which made for amazing candid and posed photos of all of our loved ones. We still have family and friends talk about how great she was at our wedding and asking for her contact information to set up their own photo shoots with her. We have since ordered prints from her and everything that we received is extremely high quality. Thank you for everything, Lynne!”

As for the turn around time, we received a few of our save the date pictures the day after!! Super fast compared to other photographers. Also included some drone pictures, which were some of the best shots. I definitely recommend to anyone. If I wasn’t having a destination wedding, Tati would be my photographer.

Isles of Ivory is a husband-and-wife wedding photography and filmmaking team based in Newport, Rhode Island, serving couples throughout New England and beyond. Our approach blends refined editorial imagery with honest, documentary storytelling—creating photographs that feel elevated and intentional without losing the emotion and spontaneity of the day. We believe the best wedding photographs come from a balance of thoughtful direction and knowing when to simply let a moment unfold. From quiet, unscripted exchanges to beautifully composed portraits, we create imagery that feels timeless, sophisticated, and distinctly personal.

“We hired Jackie and Drew for our wedding and truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We chose Collection 3, but they were incredibly flexible and helped us tailor the package with add-ons that made the most sense for our day. They genuinely worked with us to customize everything — and their pricing felt super reasonable compared to other quotes I saw in the area. You get so much for what you’re spending. From the start, they were collaborative and professional. The planning call was especially helpful — they worked with our coordinator to walk through the weekend and offered thoughtful recommendations for coverage based on the flow of events. It made the day feel effortless. On the day itself, Jackie, Drew, and their fantastic team were absolutely wonderful. Somehow, on what felt like the fastest day of our lives, they managed to slow time down and get every shot without ever making us feel rushed. We got to take photos all over, and it never felt chaotic. Their attitude and energy were unmatched. We held our ceremony outdoors in January — in Massachusetts — and it was 15 degrees. They handled it with a smile and so much grace. Every shot we wanted (and even the ones we didn’t think to ask for) was captured. They were organized, efficient, kind, and made it all feel so smooth. Something important to know: these are seasoned pros with a full calendar of weddings, so while the final results might take a bit of time, it’s never unreasonable — and so worth the wait. They’re super transparent and responsive, and any time I had a question about timelines, they were clear and helpful. Communication was excellent. The final photos and video were everything we dreamed of. The style, tone, and quality were exactly what we had discussed, and I was honestly blown away. I would recommend Jackie and Drew to anyone looking to capture their dream wedding. These are the memories we’ll look back on forever — and I’m so grateful we had them to document it.”

“Mandie shot our elopement in Garden of the Gods and was a total lifesaver when it came to planning. Our elopement trip was the first time I’d ever been to Colorado so I was planning this totally blindly but Mandie was able to provide so many recommendations and guide us through the day so seamlessly. We ended up behind schedule (by our own fault) and she still managed to get a beautiful array of shots between the hotel and the ceremony site. Even more amazingly, Mandie was able to return sneak peeks literally the same night because we wrapped up photography so early and we had our full gallery back in just a few short weeks. We chose to do two hours of coverage and I was worried it wouldn’t be enough time to get as many different shots as I’d wanted but our gallery is diverse and exciting. People literally come into my office at work to stare at the photos I’ve hung on my wall. Mandie, we can’t thank you enough for being such a dream to work with!”

“One of the best decisions we made was hiring Mallory. We are "so-so" with the camera (not entirely shy but also "what do I do with my hands"- kind of people). Mallory was awesome to show some styles that she was thinking of and looked at some inspiration photos that we picked out (this was done way before engagement shoot and before our wedding day). She made our engagement session super relaxed and fun - her ability to capture "moments" of our relationship left us in awe. She would let us do our thing and then gently guide/direct us, which was exactly what we needed (some guidance with no "stiff" or "don't move" photos). Fast forward to wedding planning, we shared a brief list of "mandatory family photos" and she created a timeline (with our wedding coordinator's timeline) and we gave her full reign on creativity! Again, she excelled! She captured some beautiful moments and looking back - we could FEEL and remember those moments she captured. We are forever in awe of her talent and ability to capture our day. During our wedding day, we unfortunately had a nor'easter come through (some would say good luck) - so lots of rain. Mallory was beyond prepared. She brought us umbrellas (I had also gotten some) and she was quick to make changes as needed. We received SO many compliments on Mallory's work and how well she worked with our other vendors. Additionally, I appreciate that she never "stopped" our day - as in, interrupt what was happening to get a particular photo. Rather, she flowed with our wedding planner and found opportunities to capture literally so many beautiful moments! I'm so happy we trusted her because she saw things that we couldn't and we are forever grateful for that. I cannot recommend her enough!! She gained clients for life :)”

I was nervous going into the shoot, but she made me feel so comfortable. She's so creative and has such a vision. Stop your search now and hire her, you won't regret it!!”

“We had a wonderful time working with Erika! She was super helpful throughout the planning process, and on the day of we felt like we could just follow her lead! As my husband's family is from Panama, it was amazing that she could speak Spanish and make them feel comfortable. Even with a little rainy weather, she was able to guide us through all the shots that we wanted. She also helped to keep things moving during the reception. We are loving the preview photos and can't wait to see the finished product. Thank you Erika!”

Hi! My name is Courtney. I am the owner and lead shooter of Courtney Cohen Photography. I am based out of Barrington, RI, and love to spend time with my husband, toddler, and dog by the beaches of Rhode Island. I have a very candid approach when it comes to photography. I want to capture the raw emotion that you will remember for years and years to come. I shoot mainly outdoors with natural light but am trained with OCF (off-camera flash) for any low light or indoor locations. I strive to work with my clients not only to give them amazing pictures but also to make their lives as easy as possible. I hope that you reach out and we can chat!

“Just WOW!! If you’re looking for a highly skilled, super fun/bubbly/upbeat photographer for your wedding, look no further, Courtney is IT (and worth every penny)!! Throughout the entire process she was so easy to communicate with and really makes an effort to get to know the bride and groom. From the second she arrived at our venue she felt like a best friend/family that we’ve known forever and was just taking our wedding photos for us. We had so much fun with her throughout the day and she went above and beyond to get the best shots for us and the shots/styles we knew we wanted from the get go. I have worked with other photographers in the past and Courtney is by the best, most skilled, and people oriented photographer I’ve ever been privileged to work with/hire. I highly highly recommend Courtney; you will not be disappointed and she will make your day all that extra special!”

“Choosing the right wedding photographer is a big decision. You want someone who can not only capture the stunning details and magical moments, but also someone who you feel comfortable with and who understands your vision. We hit the jackpot with Brenden! We first had the pleasure of working with Brenden at our engagement shoot, and we knew right away that he was something special. He's not just a talented photographer with an eye for light and composition; he's also a genuinely warm and kind person who puts you at ease instantly. He took the time to get to know us as a couple, understand what we were hoping for in our wedding photos, and offered suggestions we hadn't even considered. On the wedding day, Brenden was a calming presence amidst the whirlwind of emotions. He expertly navigated the chaos, capturing everything from the moments of beautiful bride getting ready (which I of course didn't get to see) to the raucous dance floor without ever being intrusive. He even managed to wrangle our (sometimes camera-shy) family and friends into some truly heartwarming shots. But the real magic happened when we saw the final photos. Brenden's talent is undeniable. He somehow managed to capture the raw emotion, the unadulterated joy, and the tiny, precious details that made our wedding day so perfect. We laughed, we cried, and we relived every moment all over again through his lens. Brenden isn't just a photographer; he's a storyteller. He tells the story of your love, your commitment, and the sheer joy of celebrating with the people you love most. He's the kind of photographer who becomes part of the celebration, someone you'll remember fondly long after the cake is eaten and the dancing shoes are hung up. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who will not only deliver stunning photos but also create an unforgettable experience, look no further than Brenden. He's more than just a vendor; he's an investment in memories that will last a lifetime.”

“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 wish we could add more pictures to the review to show off all the amazing pictures! Lisa and Amanda were our photographers the day of and they were both very sweet, creative and flexible. 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. Despite a last minute change in plans for first look, family photos and our ceremony due to heavy rain, they helped find new locations and the photos came out better than we could have expected. Thank you Lisa, Amanda and Crissy for helping capture our special day!”

Hey, I’m Mark, a Rhode Island wedding photographer. I photograph weddings throughout southern RI, the Newport mansions, Cape Cod, and places with character—coastal estates, barns, mills, and rustic spaces. It sounds cheesy, but I became a photographer because I really enjoy providing something that makes couples genuinely happy. Being trusted to capture meaningful moments is deeply rewarding, and it’s what led me to pursue wedding photography full-time. I’ve been a professional photographer since 2019, and since then, I’ve photographed over 130 weddings. My focus is creating an experience that feels calm, natural, and genuinely enjoyable—so couples can stay present and focused on the day itself.

“I worked with Mark as a photographer and all I can say is wow. He was very easy to work with and is a great team member. Commincation was excellent and he is very good at what he does. There needs to be more like him!”
