I wish i could give more than 5 stars. Josh was absolutely amazing to work with and our pictures are 10/10. He made us feel completely comfortable on a very intimate day of our lives and we will forever be thankful for him and his team. He was very professional and always quick with communication. Anytime I had questions or saw something I liked online, i’d send it to him and he would make sure we could recreate something similar on our wedding day. He also got us our previews and full album faster than any wedding photos i’ve ever heard. Truly could not recommend them enough!!!

I'm Marc Sadowski, a New England wedding photographer with 20+ years of experience capturing weddings across New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, and beyond. My approach is candid and documentary — I stay back, watch, and wait for the moments that happen when you forget the camera is there. I learned photography as a photojournalist, where you get one shot or you miss it forever. That instinct drives everything I do on your wedding day.

Hiring Marc was honestly one of the best choices we made for our wedding. Right off the bat, he was super organized and easy to communicate with. We had a multiple of calls/meetings before the big day to go over our schedule and what we wanted everything to look like, which gave us so much peace of mind. On the day of, he was amazing to work with. Neither of us wanted to feel stiff or forced into weird poses, and he completely respected that. He stuck to what made us feel comfortable, and it made the whole process feel natural and fun. Plus, he is ridiculously talented and brought such a great energy that made the entire day feel magical. We're so grateful for him!

Thomson & Thomson Photography is a must! Emily and Mark were such a pleasure to work with. From the very first conversation, we knew that we were in good hands for our June wedding. We started working with T&T a year out and they guided us each step of the way. We definitely recommend adding an engagement shoot as this was a great way for us to figure out what poses we did or didn't like, and get to know each other before the big day. Our wedding planner also loved working with them! Their professionalism and industry knowledge is a huge benefit. On the day-of they were clear and organized and ensured that we got all of our requested shots. Emily & Mark's attention to detail and style timeless. We are SO beyond happy with the shots we received. They capture the day so perfectly! We did a first look so that we could enjoy the cocktail hour with our guests and this meant we also got some great shots of our guests. Our guests have said that looking at the photos throws them right back into the moment which is exactly what we hoped for. I couldn't recommend Thomson & Thomson enough.

However, she worked diligently with us prior to our trip to make sure all our wants and needs were met for the shoot. We highly recommend her!

Where do I even begin?! Lindsey came highly recommended from a friend in the industry and honestly was such a support from the start of wedding planning. She provided vendor recommendations, talked through various ideas, and was so excited to help our vision come to life. Also, Lindsey provides so many helpful organizational tools that really helped us feel more prepared for the wedding day. On the day of, Lindsey and Jullian made everything feel effortless and went above and beyond. Family photos went so quickly because they were so organized and they made sure to get photos of all the details we were so proud of. When people talk about our wedding, one of the first things they mention is the photographers. The groomsmen will regularly talk about how Jullian saved the day with wardrobe mishaps; he also saved me from my wardrobe issues too! When my bridal jewelry was overwhelmingly tangled, all it took was handing the necklace to Jullian and it was taken care of. Once we all started dancing, Lindsey was on the dance floor, dancing with us and jumping up in the air to catch the perfect action shots. Honestly, having Lindsey and Jullian at the wedding felt like having two guests that also happened to be wedding planners, photographers, and the life of the party all rolled into one. I had more than a few guests at the end asking how I found such a cool duo and honestly I think it’s all pure luck.

VJ was our wedding photographer September 2025 and he did an absolutely wonderful job! From the beginning, I knew he would be the best person to complete our vision. Our meetings and emails were comprised of discussing both my preferred editing style and stylized shots. His attention to detail was far superior to other photographers who only offer one “style” and bulk edit their photos.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sasha is AMAZING at what she does and worth every penny. You won't find a photographer more talented, organized, professional, kind, funny, and easy to work with. Throughout the entire process, Sasha was an excellent communicator. She did an incredible job setting expectations with us and ensuring we were all on the same page. Sasha provided helpful suggestions and feedback when planning the photos we wanted and ensured we were comfortable with any modifications. Your wedding day can be pretty hectic and, at times, overwhelming. Sasha was a rock star and an anchor point, keeping people calm, making folks laugh, and taking the wheel when needed to ensure everyone stayed on schedule and no important photos were missed. During the reception, she did an incredible job blending into the crowd and capturing countless candid moments between our families and guests. Given how many we knew Sasha was taking, we didn't expect to receive our photos quickly. Not only did we receive them ahead of when we expected, but we also got a preview of the final product not long after the wedding, and to say it blew our minds is an understatement. The final product was beyond anything my wife and I had hoped for. We printed piles of photos for family and friends, and everyone raved about how amazing they came out. We have nearly a dozen prints of various sizes hung around our house, and we couldn't be happier with the quality of Sasha's work. We recommended Sasha to two of my closest friends and she shot both of their weddings. Both couples were just as thrilled as my wife and me. Weddings can be incredibly stressful to plan. By hiring Sasha Pedro, you'll cross one of the most important items off your list, meet an incredible person, and relax knowing that you're in the best possible hands.

I'm not a stand-in-the-corner photographer. I love being welcomed in as part of the family. Most of all, I want to you be comfortable with me at your wedding so you can just enjoy your day.It’s just one less thing to worry about knowing that you have a friend there to capture all of the candid, emotional, hysterical and real moments that will happen throughout your day.

When we got engaged and planned a winter wedding we knew we wanted a photographer who would be able to capture the romance of the season through light and color. The galleries on the Whiting Photography website did just that! Stephen has an incredible way of making photos feel personal regardless of whether you know the couple/family or not. When we got to meet Stephen through Zoom my husband and I both agreed that he would not only do a great job capturing the love and happiness we share, but also be an awesome person to hangout with on the most important day of our lives. We weren’t able to do an engagement session with him, but got to meet in person a year before our wedding and scope out picture locations. Our first impressions from Zoom were absolutely correct. Stephen was professional, talented, and friendly. We knew he would get along great with our family and friends. Throughout our engagement Stephen was communicative and helpful with all things photo and even recommended other vendors. He is someone whose opinion we trust and would go to him for his thoughts and ideas, such as “What is it like when the bride walks down the aisle alone?“ On the day of our wedding Stephen arrived and got right to work! He stayed out of the way of hair and makeup, capturing detail shots while we finished final touches. During such a chaotic morning this was majorly appreciated. I truly believe that the wedding party fed off of his calm and supportive mood making the afternoon a breeze. The additional treats that Whiting Photography offers, such as the heirloom albums and The Zebra Booth are really what set him apart from other photographers. Being able to get the photo booth pictures the same night as our wedding was great. It gave us something to look at the next day and our guests loved it! They also commented on how much they loved Stephen, but duh. Not even two days later Stephen sent us a HUGE sneak peek which had us in tears. The love, light & romance we hired Stephen for was absolutely captured and then some. We cannot wait to get together to create our album, and hopefully schedule family shoots in the future.

My photography career started in 2016 by illegally sneaking into music venues. Which led me to being hired to shoot live music, tour with bands, travel the U.S, and learning how to capture chaos, movement, and emotion in real time. Music was my passion, and motion was my language. So what's my favorite part of your day? The reception, always the reception. The lights go low, the music turns up, and people let go. I’m based in Boston, MA and photograph all weddings and all love. LGBTQ+ friendly, party-forward and here for the moments that matter.

We hired Kelty for our wedding day and couldn't have made a better choice. From our first conversation, they felt like a friend who genuinely cared about our big day—professional without being stuffy, and easy to talk to throughout the whole process. On the wedding day itself, they went way beyond taking pictures, jumping in to help with things we didn't even ask for and handling the chaos with total ease. Our venue was so impressed with their work that they told us they'd love to work with them again and our wedding party can’t get over the quality of their work. They were the stars of the day (besides us of course) We walked away with over 800 photos, and I'm fully in love with every single one; the detail, the moments and emotions captured, the whole package. For the price, what they delivered is honestly unmatched anywhere else. They were with us for 12 hours at a fraction of what other vendors wanted for more than twice the price. Hopefully we will never get married again, but I would choose Kelty every time- no hesitation!

Steve Nisotel Photography

I think there’s a real absence of authenticity in today’s world. Everywhere we look, people are polishing themselves into a perfect image for the internet. But that’s not where the beauty is. The beauty lives in the real moments — the big, loud, messy, emotional, human ones you can’t stage or script. That’s what I chase. Since 2016, I’ve been documenting weddings for couples who want to feel present, relaxed, and fully themselves. I gravitate toward the candid, the unplanned, the way a glance turns into laughter and a quiet moment becomes unforgettable.

Steve was enthusiastic, kind, creative, and flexible with day of changes to our schedule of events. I hate having my photo taken and he put me at ease immediately. I love the photos he took of the ceremony and the family, but my absolute favorite were the candid photos from the dance floor. He was always present, but never obvious, and that allowed for some really joyful and organic shots. The meetings with Steve were helpful in communicating our vision and needs, and he was so responsive! From the beginning of our time working together on engagement photos all the way through to the end of the wedding and sharing of the album, he was professional, fun, and efficient. I can not recommend him highly enough!

We first chatted with Max over Facetime and based on his cool, confident personality, we knew he would be able to do an outstanding job with our Boston Desi-American fusion wedding. His style of photography and editing stood out from the scores of photographers we were picking from on IG. Max worked closely with me (the bride) to coordinate themes, vibes, outfits, and location for our engagement photoshoot. While we were a whole hour late to our shoot because of Boston traffic, he was extremely kind and accommodating, making the most out of the situation and still delivering amazing photos. When I received the photos from him, my husband and I were blown away – he did some stunning portraits of myself, as well as gorgeous shots of us as a couple. We then coordinated wedding details – we opted for a video and photo package. Max’s team was so professional and knew where to situate themselves throughout the day once I gave them my schedule for the day – from Bridal gowngetting readyjewlery details, First Look, Bridal party portraits, Family portraits, solos, ceremony shots, cocktail hour, all the way to reception and EVERYTHING in between. The day was full of surprises and delays (as are most wedding days with lots of family and moving parts) but Max and his team DID NOT MISS A BEAT. They managed my bridal groom party with ease, and rallied everyone necessary for all the requested photos. Do I need to mention the beautiful final shots? We will forever cherish these photos and video. Thanks so much Evans Studio!

  • Serves Chelsea, MA

I'm a people photographer, an individual not a company. This is a second career for me. My photography experience goes back all my adult life—it’s a love, a passion, my craft and art. I’ve been selling photos for six years, working full-time as a professional photographer for four, and photographing weddings for three. I’ve shot more than 65 weddings, from small and intimate ceremonies to large, lively celebrations.

Doug Hyde Photographer was the perfect choice for our wedding day. From the moment we met Doug, we were impressed by his friendly, efficient, and professional communication style. The quality of his work was truly meaningful, beautiful, and amazing. Doug was very patient with us as we were a little late, but he still managed to take control and get all the pictures we wanted, making us feel at ease throughout the process. Doug is so friendly and feels like family - he is so kind and patient that we would hire him again and again anytime. We are thrilled with the stunning photos he captured that will allow us to cherish our special day forever.

Clay Taylor Photo 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Chelsea, MA

My name is Clay and I have been a photographer for over 10 years. My passion is documenting couples and their love story. I am from Dallas, Texas and now currently reside in the state of Maine but travel all around the world getting to capture all of the love!

We truly cannot say enough good things about Clay. He has been with us through every step of our journey—capturing our engagement photos, our (secret!) elopement, and our destination wedding in St. Lucia—and each set of photos is more breathtaking than the last. Clay’s work speaks for itself: it’s stunning, emotional, and artful. But what makes him even more special is who he is behind the lens. He is such a calming, kind, and organized presence—exactly the kind of person you want around you on your wedding day. Despite the excitement and chaos of the moment, Clay brought a sense of ease to everything. Neither of us are naturals in front of the camera, but Clay guided us gently and clearly, making us feel confident, relaxed, and most importantly, like ourselves. His direction never felt forced or posed—just effortless and natural. We love Clay and feel so lucky to have had him document the most important moments of our lives. His talent is unmatched, and his presence is a gift. We cannot recommend him enough—if you’re considering him, just do it. You will be forever grateful, just like we are.
