Hi! I'm Hannah. I'm a wedding photographer of 8 years, a wife, and an occupational therapist.

From the moment we first saw the venue (that chandelier sealed the deal!), we knew it was where we wanted to celebrate our day. Every meeting with the team felt fun and upbeat, which made the whole planning process so much easier and genuinely enjoyable. Huge shoutout to Briana, Lily, Anna, and Jillian for supporting us through everything and keeping us on track. Our banquet captain that night, Kerri, made sure our guests were taken care of, and we heard so many compliments about the food and service. Chef Jim, Sous Chef Corey, and their awesome servers, Michael, Phil, and Elijah, really did an amazing job. We also have to rave about our bartender, Mariah. She was hilarious, kind, and just so good at what she does. She added such a fun energy to the night and made it even more special for us and our guests.

Alba Lumos Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Durham, NH

I'd say my photography style would be something along the lines of "lifestyle photography". [That means that posing you in silly ways that seem fake / awkward isn't really my jam.] I mean, unless that gets some snuggles & laughs. I'm ALLLL about that. I like to capture REAL life with REAL emotions and REAL smiles. Your session should be relaxed and fun. [All while I get some kick-ass photos!] I will most likely make a giant fool of myself at your session, so you'll feel like a professional. I sing, trip, laugh, make noises, mention inappropriate things, show my nerdiness. AKA YOU'RE GOING TO DO JUST FINE.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are looking for photographers who not only deliver high quality pictures but also help to make your day fun and enjoyable, April and Jordan are the ones for you! I can not even describe how incredible my experience with Alba Lumos was. April was able to use her own vison while also hearing what we wanted and incorporating that as well. My now husband is SOO uncomfortable being in front of a camera, and she was able to make his feel comfortable and even enjoy having his photos taken! The sneak peak pictures (attached) from the wedding are INCREDIBLE!!!! I will be doing all future photos with Alba Lumos, and highly recommend them!

I’m Felisha, an Award Winning - Published New England Wedding + Portrait photographer with the honor of capturing love stories and cherished moments across New England since 2013. Photography isn’t just my career—it’s the way I connect with people, turning clients into dear friends and fleeting moments into timeless memories. When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll find me soaking up life with my high school sweetheart, our beautiful daughter, and our two chocolate Labradors. My heart beats for real, authentic moments—the kind where love and laughter come effortlessly.

Awarded Best of Zola
Within a year of our wedding, our original photographer canceled, and I felt nothing but panic and sadness at having to start the search all over again. When I came across Felisha’s portfolio, it felt like fate. Her work was exactly what I had been envisioning from the start of wedding planning—and more. I reached out on a whim, fully expecting her to be booked, but by all the luck in the world she wasn’t and it was meant to be! From our very first call, Felisha instantly put me at ease. She felt like a friend—warm, kind, understanding, and genuinely willing to listen. Every ounce of worry disappeared, and instead, she added to the excitement of getting married. On our wedding day it was just easy and fun, it felt like a friend was capturing our day. Not only is her photography absolutely breathtaking, but the person behind the camera is equally as remarkable. I would relive our wedding day 100 times over with Felisha by our side. I’m beyond grateful for the memories she captured and gosh are they stunning! I cannot wait for future life moments to bring us together again, she is stuck with us for life if she’ll have us!

  • Serves Durham, NH

Hi, I’m Julie! I’ve been photographing weddings for about ten years now (holy cow, do I feel old!), starting with photographing friends' weddings and quickly falling in love with the work. While I adore capturing gorgeous portraits of the bride and groom and the quiet (and sometimes chaotic!), beautiful moments during a wedding/elopement/engagement session, those ridiculous candid moments (like when a stranger offers you a fry on the boardwalk during your bridesmaid photos) truly make your day uniquely yours. I'd absolutely describe my style as a mixture of classic, artistic and photojournalism, but my heart lies in capturing candid moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
Julie did an amazing job photographing our summer camp wedding in Maine and was such a joy to work with! We love how all of our wedding pictures came out, with beautiful color, light, and tons of candid shots truly capturing the magic of the day and all the love we were surrounded by. Julie picked fantastic spots throughout our summer camp wedding venue to take photos and made great use of the natural features, color and different indoor and outdoor elements. She also got lots of nice candid shots of our guests and took care to document details of the day, such as the table settings, flowers, and signage. The entire process of working with Julie from start to finish felt effortless and comfortable - we had an initial conversation to see if we were a good fit and discuss what we were hoping for, and then contracting was extremely easy. Both of us felt we could really live in the moment and enjoy our wedding day without feeling like we were being pulled away from our guests too much for pictures. We did not do a first look, and we were still able to do all of our family portraits and pictures of the two of us without missing the whole cocktail hour. We also got our wedding photos back before we even returned from our honeymoon! Our family and friends also really appreciate that the wedding photo album isn’t watermarked, so you can share your pictures with your loved ones without them having to buy anything. Thank you Julie for being so fun to work with and for taking so many photos we will treasure!

Sarah is an amazing photographer. I looked at probably a dozen other photographers for our wedding, but my fiancé and I were both super impressed with Sarah’s work and affordability. We recently had our engagement photos done and I was an anxious mess since I don’t normally wear make up or have my photos taken. However, I’m OBSESSED with how the photos came out. I feel so pretty looking at them and they truly represent our love and goofy relationship. Cannot wait to see the photos from our wedding next year.

The Victoria Inn and Pavilion was the perfect wedding venue for us. From the very beginning, their communication style was timely, thorough, and flexible - they worked with us every step of the way to ensure our special day was exactly how we envisioned it. The quality of their work and overall value was truly exceptional - the venue was elegant, affordable, and had a classic, timeless feel. They were incredibly accommodating, allowing us to mix and match our experience to meet our specific needs, including being flexible on catering. We also had the option to rent out the inn for the weekend, which we opted out of, but would have been perfect for a larger group. AK, the venue coordinator, was a pleasure to work with and made sure we were able to meet all of our requests without breaking the bank. If you're looking for an affordable wedding space that doesn't compromise on elegance, we highly recommend The Victoria Inn and Pavilion.

I’m a New Hampshire wedding photographer, who specializes in candid, natural wedding photography, serving all of New England for over fifteen years. Almost all of my couples come to me saying that they feel weird in front of the camera and worried about how their photos will turn out. But of course they want those gorgeous, Pinterest-worthy shots! My laid-back attitude will help put you at ease, helping your true personalities shine through (with simple and fun guidance for the posed photos). And my quiet and calm nature makes it easy for me to blend into the background, to get tons of candid photos that you will make you laugh and cry.

We chose Brett for our photographer for our wedding and could not be happier. She was great to work with, quick and easy communication. She made us feel comfortable during the engagement session and wedding day. The photos were beautiful and captured the special moments of the day so well. I would highly recommend!

We found this venue after searching, searching, and searching for the wedding location of our dreams. And then we saw it… It wasn’t finished yet, but just from the vision and the photos of what it was going to look like, we were already in love. It had everything we wanted: a beautiful indoor space to get ready, big windows that connected the inside with the outside, and the option to host cocktail hour outdoors. It was exactly what we had dreamed of both indoor and outdoor spaces in one perfect place. From the pictures we knew it was special, but when we saw it in person… it was even more beautiful! Everything is luxurious and so well taken care of. Honestly, you don’t need extravagant decorations because the venue itself is the decoration—it has everything you need and more. From sewing kits and pins to fix your dress, to a toothbrush everything you wouldn’t even expect is already there. It’s fully equipped and thoughtfully prepared. And we can’t talk about this venue without mentioning Kim, the owner. She is incredibly hardworking, kind, and so patient throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, she helped us in so many ways. She was there from the beginning, attentive to every detail. Her service is beyond what you expect truly above and beyond. Everything was clear from the start no surprises, just honesty and professionalism. Choosing this venue was, without a doubt, the best decision we made. Everything went smoothly, everything was beautiful. I would get married there a million times over. In fact… I want to get married there again! Thank you for making our day unforgettable.

I’ve been making pictures since I was 12. My parents gave me an ancient 35mm Konica Autoreflex camera, told me to get after it, and the rest, as they say, is history. My role as a photographer is to capture the rare, vulnerable, epic, extraordinary, and wonderfully ordinary moments of life, as well as the beautiful details in between. I strive to make images that come from the heart and will tell your story for years to come. Also, I might cry at your wedding. It happens.

Jo was the best addition to our day - everyone should hire her! She takes amazing photos and is so fun to work with. We are pretty sure that neither of us have had our photo professionally taken since middle school, so we really wanted a photographer that would make us feel at ease, and Jo is a master at that. Less of a photographer, more just a friend with a camera, she just becomes a part of the party. She took some major weather curveballs in stride, wrangled our huge families expertly, and made us feel so comfortable for the whole day. The whole process from the first emails, to engagement photos, to wedding day was smooth as silk. Our friends and family kept saying to us “your photographer is awesome” and we agree - best photographer ever!
