YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED. You're about to spend months planning, researching, and investing in a single day that you'll never forget. That's why preserving it is so important. Photography is a way to relive all those fleeting moments, including the ones you missed, over and over. It's important now, and it's foundational to building your legacy. Your wedding photos are not only for you, but for your grandparents and grandchildren. Your wedding day will be celebrated and remembered through the eye of your Wedding Photographer, so choosing someone who fits your vibe and brings out everyone's genuine personality is essential.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot express enough how grateful we are to have found Chris to capture our special day. However, it goes beyond just that singular day. We had first met with Chris in person for a meet and greet, which I would have never thought to play such an integral role in the process. He demonstrated so much passion for the trade and was already so invested in making sure he was exactly the photographer we were looking for so we could truly get the most out of our day. He also took the time to visit the venue after our meeting to get an idea of what he'd be working with. Chris went above and beyond, every step of the way. He even made it a point to come during the rehearsal as well to be even further prepared. Everything flowed organically with his direction which took away so much stress from the day. Professionalism aside, Chris is just a good dude all around. We're so happy to come away from this experience with not only an amazing portfolio of memories, but a passionate and charismatic friend.

The Sound Originals team were fantastic people to work with, not only due to their professionalism, but also because they were great people to have around. They were extremely comfortable and friendly while working with us and taking photos. Even when it came down to the dogs, 2 of which were panicking because they are rescues and being around so many people stressed them out, this didn't even phase the Sound Originals team which impressed me the most. Their professionalism with their gear was truly amazing to see (we have some professional photographers in our family who were commenting on this too), you could tell they knew how to handle their equipment. One thing that I loved was that they took the time to create cute photogenic moments to capture with the camera that would normally be over so fast, you would probably miss it. Every photo, from the goofy spur of the moment reactions - to the posed adorable moments, came out beautifully. Thank you Sound Originals for working with us! We couldn't have asked for better photographers.

Yes, the pictures were beautiful. They perfectly captured everything I asked for, I look at them ALL the time, and that’s important. But what sets her above the rest was how easy and fun she was to work with!! We planned a destination micro wedding in a city we had only been to once, which should have been so stressful but she made sure everything was thought of and planned out for us without even an ounce of worry. I cannot speak highly enough of her and her services, she MADE my wedding what it was. Worth every. Single. Penny.

Hello there new friend! My name is Jo and it is SO great to meet you! I am a wedding, elopement... and pretty much all things love- photographer based in the incredible city of Boston, Massachusetts! I'm a hopeless romantic at heart! And if there's one thing in this life that I absolutely adore, it's a GOOD love story. If I had to pick a second thing, it would be working with couples that are authentic, joyful, and unapologetically themselves. So as you can imagine, weddings and elopements are my absolute FAVORITE! Joining along on the happiest day of your life is a dream, and I adore all the moments I get to share with my couples!

Awarded Best of Zola
Words can't actually fully describe how grateful my husband and I were to be able to work with Jo for our September 2024 wedding (and our engagement session before that). First of all, Jo traveled from Boston to a farm in VT, and not only did she and her wonderful assistant Janah keep our big families ahead of schedule with the family photos ahead of the ceremony, but they used their expertise to help direct us in the moment in a clear and fun way that made the experience a complete delight. Our guests couldn't stop raving about their professionalism and ability to pivot quickly and capture any moment. Jo shared the finished gallery with us much faster than anticipated, which was a wonderful surprise. She also has a really intuitive way of grouping the photos together so it makes it easy to look through, find your favorites, and share with others. Looking back on our gallery, we have hundreds of gorgeous photos spanning unforgettable candids to formals with families, all of which we will cherish for the rest of our lives. If you have the opportunity to work with Jo - don't think twice! You won't regret it.

The goal is simple: to create images and films that feel timeless, atmospheric, and true to how it actually felt to be there.

The quality of their work was truly professional, precise and excellent - they captured all the special moments of our day beautifully. They were very skilled at navigating the city hall setting, and had a knack for finding unique and creative angles to photograph us. Their passion and new ideas for capturing the day were so refreshing, going beyond the typical template shots. I would highly recommend Summer St Films to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

She was creative and thoughtful with our family photos, portraits, and was able to capture so many aspects of the night. She was so easy to communicate with before the date and did a great job listening to how we wanted our wedding day captured. Can’t say enough great things- I highly recommend Sravya to anyone!!

I'm Alyssa, a Boston based wedding photographer who shoots all over Maine, Rhode Island, The Hudson Valley and New York City. I feel so lucky to photograph weddings. It’s an honor to be invited into the quiet, behind-the-scenes moments that make the day so personal—those shared just with family and the closest friends. I don’t take that role lightly and feel privileged to document those intimate pieces of the story.

Alyssa was an amazing photographer to work with. From the start she was great to bounce ideas off of and we trusted her completely with our vision. She has a really great energy that put us and our entire wedding party at ease, and made our portrait and family shoots so comfortable. The photos of our ceremony and reception turned out beautifully! If you want a slightly more unique vibe for your photos, with visual interest, movement, and drama, then Alyssa is the photographer for you.

Authentic moments and real love stories. Wedding photos that feel like you. For me, the most important part of your wedding day is that you enjoy it. I have 10+ years and 200+ weddings of experience, and I genuinely love my job. Queer/LGBTQ+ friendly - always.

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.

Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Chestnut Hill, MA

Hi, I'm Brooke (she/they) I'm a Massachusetts based wedding & elopement photographer. A client once told me that I captured things in their wedding photos that until then they had only ever felt. I saw this as the ultimate compliment. My goal in every session is to do just that: Turn an intangible feeling into a tangible image that will make your heart soar every time you see it. But what does love look like?

Awarded Best of Zola
When I say that Brooke went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect, I truly mean it. When my wife and I decided to get married, one of our biggest concerns as a T4T couple was finding a photographer who was someone that could make us both feel comfortable showing up as our authentic selves. I’ve known Brooke for over 10 years and have always known they were an amazing human being inside and out, so when I discovered that she was diving into wedding photography (this was back in 2019) I knew exactly who to go to. When it comes to our trans identities, unlike many wedding vendors who just treat that like some major issue or something they need to be like “stepping on glass” to deal with, Brooke handled our wedding with nothing but the uttermost respect, dignity, ease and kindness. In addition to being queer friendly, she also is just so amazing at making you feel good behind the camera. My wife and I are extremely awkward picture takers and I was so worried that’s what you would get from our photos. But that was NOT even remotely the case. We adored the outcome of our photos because we just look so naturally happy and in love. The photos still, even now, bring so much joy to my heart when I look at them. They will probably be my forever background photos on my phone so I can always see them for that reason. I will forever be grateful for choosing Brooke to work with, and any photo needs that I have in the future will always be in Brooke’s hands, as now I trust no one else to make us look as good. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! If I could give more than 5 stars I absolutely would!!!!

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.

Stephen was such a pleasure to work with from the beginning. He listened, he got to know us, and from the moment he showed up he was on his game. I was attracted to his work because the quality of his work is timeless- not overly stylized, but super clean with gorgeous tones and use of light. At the wedding he seemed to be everywhere without ever being too front and center- he really mastered blending in to capture authentic moments. And then we got the pictures. Ohhh my goodness were they stunning. Like, wow. Killed that. So glad we got to work with Stephen. If we had to do it again we would choose him 100%

  • Serves Chestnut Hill, MA

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

Hi! I'm Kayla, owner and lead photographer at Kayla Rice Photography. I’m a Boston based documentary wedding photographer. I am a trained photojournalist who discovered a passion for capturing love in all its forms. I started my business with the goal of creating an experience for those who might be looking for something more authentic and unposed.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kayla was the photographer at our wedding in December of 2018 and we trusted her to be the sole professional source of visual documentation since we opted to forgo a videographer, etc. I was familiar with Kayla's abilities in multiple disciplines as well as her previous work at social events like ours. It was obvious that she possesses a true gift for both standard and unique photographic approaches. Beyond the artistic talent, Kayla has the ideal personality for personal and meaningful lifetime events. She listens and remembers every detail, reads a room and crowd skillfully, and puts herself in almost unnoticeable positions while ensuring that she gets every shot from every angle. For us, with a very small wedding venue that had some unusual layout features, Kayla adapted and used the space to her advantage in a way that demonstrated her substantial ability to be in just the right place at just the right time. She was also a zero-stress and calming presence on what is unavoidably a stressful (and wonderful!) day for a bride and groom - she communicated her few informational needs clearly and worked perfectly with our day-of wedding planner. What sticks out most is her work during the wedding ceremony itself. In a small and very non-traditional space, she found all the right angles with some VERY creative positioning while remaining completely hidden from all in attendance. Her natural and developed skill was obvious throughout the night. Her subsequent work on our beautiful photo album only cemented our complete and total satisfaction with her work on every level. We simply can't imagine a more positive overall experience. She is an artist and a professional in equal measures and would be a massive asset to an event of any size or type.

We’re a full-time wedding photography and videography team passionate about capturing love stories and life’s most meaningful moments. My journey began back in high school, when I first discovered photography and fell in love with the idea of recording and sharing genuine emotions.

Nathan did our court wedding photos, and we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. We had a big group with us, which can be a lot to manage, but he was incredibly patient and made sure everyone looked great in the shots. Despite the limitations of a courthouse setting, he came in with creative ideas that really made the photos stand out. He’s a perfectionist in the best way—very detail-oriented, professional, and easy to communicate with. He walked us through everything clearly and made sure we felt comfortable throughout the whole shoot. You can tell he genuinely cares about getting it right, and it shows in the final pictures.

My name is Gabby and I am a LGBTQ+ travel wedding photographer based in Boston. I'm dedicated to preserving the nostalgia of your special day whether in New England or worldwide. My directing approach is to seamlessly guide you by posing through movement and letting you be yourself. If this is what you’re looking for, then I'd love to chat more!

Working with Gabby was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. When we look through our photos, we not only see things that resemble and remind us of our wedding day, but can feel exactly what our wedding FELT like. She uses light, movement, and captures every bit of emotion. Every single image is more beautiful than the next. Somehow Gabby made you feel like she was everywhere all at once and also nowhere at all. She fits in SO seamlessly, but notices everything. A quiet hand squeeze from my mom, a tearful laugh, Gabby captured it all. Beyond her talent, Gabby is an incredible person. She is warm, easygoing, and (I believe) can make absolutely anyone feel comfortable in front of a camera. She is kind and detailed. She is observant and absurdly talented. I'd recommend her to anybody and would rate her even more stars if I could. Thank you, thank you, thank you Gabby. You make remembering our day fun.

A Boston Wedding & Elopement Photographer The little moments can reveal so much "How do you want to spend your day?" It’s the question I ask every potential client, and almost always, the answer involves spending the day with the people who matter most. They want their photography to reflect their joy and the genuine emotions of the day. They seek artistry and authenticity, desiring a collection of images that speak to them on a fundamental level. They want to be present on their wedding day and they don’t have to perform for a photograph. I’m a documentary wedding photographer and that’s exactly what I do.

As much as Angie's photos speak for themselves, I've got a word or two to say myself: This photographer is THE ONE to capture your big day! We were initially drawn to the natural yet electric feel of Angie's work. The joy of her subjects feels very real -- because it is. Angie is there to capture real joy and real beauty and real love, not to force it through posing or a trick of the light. Her passion is for people and for love itself, and that's what makes her work second to none! Like I wrote above: these stunning shots very much speak for themselves (and they say "joy," "love," "BLISS!" and everything else we experienced on our wedding day) But Angie's talent isn't the only reason to hire her. She is a kind professional with a calming presence and a "sixth sense" for when & where to capture the perfect shot. She's got an artist's eye, and sought out unique locations & lighting to make the most out of our photoshoot around the MASS MoCA campus. (Check out that silhouette of our profiles! A spontaneous idea of hers ;) ) While we were still in the planning stage, Angie took the time to regularly check in with us and prepare. Whenever we were on the phone with her, it felt like she was in the room with us! Her friendliness and passion came through in our conversations, and we felt relieved knowing that we wouldn't have to worry about how we might "get along" with our photographer on our wedding day. Once Angie arrived on the day-of, everything felt natural. Throughout the day & evening, we never felt "overwhelmed" by her presence, yet she was always there to snap the most animated moments. And not just our most animated moments -- the photos of our guests are so charged with emotion, we can hear & feel them! Our favorite part of going through our wedding album has been seeing the joy on our guests' faces, all captured by Angie. Whenever we want to relive that night -- or live a new part of it that we didn't get to see -- our experience and all of our guests' unique experiences are just a few clicks away. I knew her photos would be beautiful, but I didn't anticipate this....totally immersive quality. Each shot is like a portal straight back to the moment it captures. These photos are ALIVE, and we are so grateful! Thank you, Angie, for all of the perfect lil picture-portals 333

Born and raised in Maine, I dream of one day retiring there by the sea, like a real life Miss Rumphius. But until then, I live just outside of Boston with my husband and our three cats. I'm married to my high school sweetheart, but we waited more than a decade before saying our own vows. Sometimes (okay, often) I eat cake for breakfast, so you can always count on me to help taste test yours. If I'm not photographing people in love, I'm probably enjoying a glass (bottle) of champagne on the couch or planning my next adventure. I believe everything is better by the ocean and you should never wait to explore the world.

Kendra was such a comfort to my husband and I during the entirety of our wedding planning process, thru our wedding and beyond. She was always available for communication and never once made us feel like we were asking too much or being bothersome. Kendras energy is amazing, especially for two people that do not consider themselves photogenic! She brought out the best in us and it reflects in our engagement and wedding day photos. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

I am a wedding & portrait photographer and event planner based out of The Berkshires, MA. As an avid traveller, and photographer for the better part of a decade, I am constantly in awe of the human existence, and how we connect. As a wedding photographer, I aim to capture your wedding moments as they unfold. For me, the beautiful part about weddings is the celebration of life, love, unscripted moments (and all that comes with it). In all of the happy tears, big laughs and tight hugs. It is my wish to not only see these beautiful memories in photographs, but truly see the people in them.

Seriously, look no further for your wedding / engagement photographer! Finding a photographer was one of our top priorities when we initially started looking for wedding vendors and we cannot sing Abigail's praises enough. After months of research, we ended up choosing Abigail for her professionalism, warmth and artistic eye and it was one of the best decisions we made. She is extremely talented and did an incredible job capturing portraits and candid moments during our Korean Paebek and our wedding ceremony. Every single person we have shown our gallery to raves about the pictures and I have already referred Abigail to a number of other engaged couples. She was sincerely a joy to work with, made me and my husband feel at ease and captured absolutely stunning photographs that we will cherish for decades to come.

New England wedding & lifestyle photographer. Boston based, available for travel. I’ve been obsessed with weddings and photography for my entire life, so naturally when I graduated from college I immediately started this business. I fell in love with it after the very first wedding I shot back in 2012 and every day I have to pinch myself because I truly LOVE my job. There is nothing I'd rather be doing than this!

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Anne! From start to finish, she was absolutely incredible. Not only did we have the most perfect wedding day, but Anne captured it in a way that lets us relive every moment over and over again. Anne brought such a calming presence to the day and made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. She captured every smile, every happy tear, every little moment in such a genuine way. We’re endlessly grateful for Anne’s talent, professionalism, and kindness. We can’t recommend Anne highly enough, not just for weddings, but for any special event where you want genuine, beautifully captured memories to last a lifetime. Anne was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding and we can't wait to work with her again!

Hey – I am so glad you are here! I am a professional wedding photographer based in Boston and I LOVE MY JOB! I have an Irish Doodle named Brooklyn that keeps me busy when I’m not photographing couples. This is my 10th year in business with over 500 weddings and elopements photographed. I discovered my love of photographing couples while I was working at Apple (super nerd over here) and it's been my passion ever since. Although I am based in Boston, I do travel for destination weddings and elopements (I also plan them) so do not hesitate to reach out!

Erin is, without a doubt, the most incredible person and photographer we could have ever hoped to work with. From start to finish, she brought an energy and enthusiasm that lit up every moment of our wedding journey. Her attention to detail and her rare ability to capture raw emotion in her work set her apart in ways we never imagined. Every interaction with Erin felt like catching up with a lifelong friend. She approached every meeting, every question, and every detail with such genuine joy that it made the entire process truly incredible. Erin has an extraordinary gift for making you feel comfortable and at ease, and the results are nothing short of breathtaking. The photographs she delivered are timeless and beautifully capture the essence of our day. She didn't just take photos—she preserved moments, emotions, and memories that we’ll cherish forever. If you're looking for a photographer in Boston or beyond, look no further than Erin. She is truly the most genuine person we’ve ever met.

When I was a kid growing up in Michigan, I was always fooling around with my mom’s old manual cameras and capturing everything my friends and I did. I took traditional art classes in high school, but even then, I was merely creating paintings of the photos I had taken. I went on to study documentary photography at the Maryland Institute of Art and abroad at the University of Wales, where I won the Nikon Discovery Award Grand Prize and was named one of the 25 Under 25 Up-and-Coming American Photographers. When a friend asked me to assist at a wedding she was photographing, and my plans changed in an instant.

I had the pleasure of working with Gina when she photographed a wedding at my venue. Gina was wonderful to work with: her calm demeanor, efficiency, cheerfulness, unique perspective, and professionalism made the day a pleasure. She has the ability to direct couples and their guests to get a great shot with ease. And the results!!! Her images are stunning! She was able to capture the spirit and the essence of the wedding couple in every image. And with her creative eye, created images that will always be cherished. As a venue manager, I love sharing Gina's images because they show off my space so creatively and elegantly. I would, without hesitation, highly recommend Gina Brocker Photography.
