Gabriela did a wonderful job documenting all of the aspects of our wedding day. She was flexible, hardworking, attentive to our requests, and open about what she needed from us and about what to expect. Her presence was calm and unobtrusive. She did a nice job with the portraits, including the kids and groups. I would highly recommend working with her. We'll be reaching out again in the future.

Lorna Stell Photo

5.0

Salem, MA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

I’m a Virginia transplant who makes her home north of Boston. I’m obsessed with the diversity and energy of the city, but also with how easy it is to escape to nature in New England. As an introvert, I definitely need both! I’m married to a handsome fellow creative (of the wordsmithing and storytelling variety) and we love our homebody life together. I’m a photographer because I think people are fascinating. Because memories are fleeting. Because we all need some beauty around us to help us remember how incredibly blessed we are to be alive.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are looking for a photographer who really cares about the people she works with, takes great pictures and awesome to work with then Lorna is your person! When searching for a proposal photographer I was looking for someone that would be easy to communicate with and Lorna was just that and more! We scheduled a meet over Zoom, so she could get to know me and see if there was any questions I had for the day of the proposal. I enjoyed this as it helped me get to know more about the person who would be working with me on such an important moment. The day of the proposal she kept in contact with me up until we arrived at the location which I appreciated. Lorna even helped calm my nerves assuring me the location was correct as she arrived early to prepare (I never been and was afraid we might be at the wrong building) We absolutely loved the images when we received them! I appreciated she kept me updated on when we would be receiving the images and the pictures were awesome. We loved how she was able to capture our special moment and were so happy to see how great the pictures turned out. I would definitely recommend Lorna for anyone who is looking for a photographer. She was very nice, great communicator, and you can tell she truly cares and was happy for us. Thank you so much Lorna for helping us with our special moment.

Salty Raven Studio

Salem, MA
  • Photojournalistic style

My work is vibrant, moment-driven, and authentic. I love focusing on your connection as a couple, what makes you and your wedding unique, and your interactions with family and friends as you celebrate together. My approach to wedding photography leans toward a documentary or photojournalistic style with a fine art element (I graduated from Wellesley College with a degree in studio art). While I might suggest an area with great lighting to stand in, I will never ask you to “pretend” to do anything. Ever.

We first met Danielle when she was the photographer at my cousin's wedding. It was such a small event it was impossible to not interact with Danielle and just admire her work. We immediately knew that we wanted to work with her. Fast forward to our own wedding planning, Danielle was so incredible in helping us prepare for the day. During our (very much impromptu) engagement photos, Danielle made it easy for us to just be ourselves...something that is not always easy to do when I prefer being behind the camera. Leading up to the big day, she encouraged us to make decisions that would keep us smiling throughout the day, gave us wonderful advice (which I still think about in my daily life), and really just made the entire experience easy. On the wedding day itself, Danielle became nothing short of a superhero. Somehow, she became the ring leader supreme, keeping us all on track with the agenda and maintaining the most friendly and professional composure. I've never seen anyone more effortlessly corral my large family faster while still laughing and having fun. And the pictures, they're perfect! My husband and I spent our 3-month anniversary looking through the full album, spending hours just reliving the day that memory made into a blur. Even our officiant (who is also a friend) stated that they made her cry all over again and how she could hear the laughter through the pictures. I cannot wait until the next time we have the opportunity to see and work with Danielle again.

  • Photojournalistic style

I’m Lauren Baker - a professional dancer turned photographer who has learned that embracing inner awkwardness and letting go of expectations is the key to leading a love-filled, happy life. This is why I love serving Clients who are a little nervous about being in front of the camera but who are also the most selfless, warmest people with the cutest laughs I’ve ever met. The clients I serve like to laugh and have fun, tell "that's what she said" jokes, and love timeless, elegant, romantic imagery.

We are wedding videographers (Savstrom Studios) who recently had the privilege of working alongside Lauren at a styled photo shoot in St. Paul. We have known Lauren for awhile and love her work so it was a lot fun getting to work together and seeing her creative process. Lauren has incredible talent for styling, directing, and posing couples, as well as capturing wedding details. She does an amazing job capturing everything she needs, collaborating with other vendors, and keeping the atmosphere fun for everyone. Highly recommend Lauren for couples looking for beautiful, timeless photos and an amazing client experience!

I am a self proclaimed romantic at heart, always have been. After 19 years of marriage, I am a believer in true love! Photographing the special day for couples of all ages and walks of life, is a real joy and I get a charge of excitement for each gig.

As a wedding photographer I leverage my experience as a pro along with my personality.

Jim has truly become such a great friend in this process. The biggest thing you want to feel on your wedding day is comfort and support. Jim goes out of his way to make this happen. We first met and worked with Jim for our engagement photos. We had so much fun! Jim wasn't afraid of getting in the sand and water to get our pictures in the ocean. When our wedding was postponed, Jim was there to shoot our elopement (and keep the secret)! After waiting for eight months, we finally had our wedding. Even though it was raining, Jim captured every moment of our amazing day. We will be working with Jim for all of our photography needs in the future. Thank you, Jim!

Salem, MA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000

Alyse Grimm is the creator behind Things to do in Salem [dot] com. In addition to working in tourism in Salem, MA she is also a wedding photographer with 5+ years/100+ weddings of experience and her work has been published on major wedding platforms. Her knowledge of the north shore combined with her experience makes her a natural fit for your north shore wedding. Alyse's style is photojournalistic with an eye for small details. She is less fond of posed photos. Alyse is open to travel but is giving priority to weddings on the North Shore of MA and to weddings that are non traditional/showcase the individuality of the couple.

Alyse worked with my fiancé and I for our engagement shoot at Beacon Hill. Since we are from out of town (NY) and the shoot took place at the height of Covid, this required some strategic planning on both ends. Alyse was so kind and flexible to work with. She assured us that even if last minute changes due to Covid had to happen, she would work with us. I was very stressed with the entire situation, but Alyse’s calm, reassuring personality put my mind at ease. She has many great ideas, but also listens to your vision and is open to doing shots that you like. We loved the way she captured who we are as a couple, in a place that is special to us. We received many compliments on our save the date cards which featured the photos from our shoot. If you are looking for a photographer who is easygoing, open minded, and knows the MA area well, then Alyse is your girl!

Erin Wholley Photography

Methuen, MA
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

Here to capture the beauty of the world, one family at a time. A photograph is always there to remind you of a time once cherished. Sure, weddings are scary and fast paced and there is a pressure to do your best work. But it’s also exhilarating and I feel like I can be my most artistic self. I’m learning that the role of photographer is so much more than taking photographs. You are following this couple around and capturing every little moment you can for them, cheering them on along the way.

Erin did our engagement photos and wedding photos and I could not recommend her more highly! Her work obviously speaks for itself- her photos are stunning. But what you can’t see from her photos is what a great person and business woman she is. Erin was always professional and happy to give me her time when i had questions while wedding planning. Erin was so much fun to be around, we felt like we were friends with her by the end of our wedding. She has a great attitude and is more than just a photographer, but also a bridal attendant and hype woman all in one! She kept us laughing and relaxed and we felt so comfortable with her which is very important on one of the most emotional and stressful days of your life! Even our parents and bridal party commented on how wonderful she was to be around. I had a specific vibe in mind for my getting ready photos and for my reception dress change. Erin understood my vision and absolutely nailed it! We could not be more happy that we hired Erin and would highly recommend her if you are looking for a talented artist who is super down to earth and fun!

With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

Ken Y could not have been a better choice as our lead photographer and we can't wait to work with him at our wedding in September. His communication, his candor, his creativity, his commitment -- it was all aligned with our vision and our biggest hopes. Honestly, it was way more fun and carefree than either of us imagined possible and that's the best feeling. We were both smiling hours later; he lit us up. OLAS has a whole has been a breath of fresh air and such a delight to work with. We know we made the right choice and yesterday really proved it. So grateful to have found such a wonderful team!

I highly recommend also doing an engagement photo shoot as well as getting an album made through Solare, it was great quality!

We are traveling wedding photographer and videographer. For 2024, we have 70+ weddings booked in 21 different states. Our shooting style is photojournalistic, natural, CINEMATIC to traditional. Our editing and style depends. Very easygoing and flexible depending on the client's preference. Our team is dedicated in delivering memories.

My Husband and I got married April 14th, 2024 and didn't think we'd "need" a Videographer. This was the very last thing we added to our wedding planning.. yes, even after small things like arranging the seating chart, whether we wanted favors, etc. This by far was THE BEST DECISION WE MADE. We found Ledd Lens on Zola and inquired about their services about 2 months before the wedding. Usually, couples book videographers at least a year in advance. They asked what our budget was, what we were looking for and came back with 3 options to choose from. The prices were VERY AFFORDABLE and included their TRAVEL to Philadelphia. Having every moment on video to rewatch with our family or just alone is the best feeling after all the planning we did over 13 months. Randall was amazing! He had us choose 3 songs to use in our highlight video, but ended up using 1. The other 2, he chose, and they fit even better than the ones we thought would! He also threw in a few bonus footage as well. Absolutely amazing and professional company to work with. We are so happy!! Thank you Ledd Lens!

Hi there! I’m Lindsey “Lensy” Michelle (she/her) – a New York City and Boston based wedding and elopement photographer specializing in non-traditional celebrations. My style is a mix of candid and directed coverage that seeks to amplify and celebrate what makes each couple unique.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Lindsey for a Cape Cod wedding in late September and had a wonderful experience working with her (and her second photographer, Jullian). She brought so much warmth and enthusiasm to the planning process and made it a breeze. It felt like she really cared about getting to know us as people and understanding our goals and dreams. On the day itself, she was professional, flexible, and accommodating, but also super high-energy. Throughout it all, she seemed genuinely excited for us — and somehow, also, she and Jullian were seemingly everywhere at once, getting photos of everything and everyone. She told us her style was to be part of the party, and she really was — so many friends afterwards told me how fun it was to be photographed by her! A look through Lindsey’s portfolio will show you that her photos are stunning, personal, and unique to each couple — and that certainly felt true for us. We’re so thrilled with Lindsey’s photos and really feel like they capture what made our day special. Lindsey was also super respectful around questions of gender and identity throughout the process and during the wedding itself — inclusivity was a priority for us, and it’s clear that it’s a priority for Lindsey, too. Highly recommend working with Lindsey.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve felt most at home when I was creating art. I fell in love with photography at the age of 13, when I realized I could create art out of the moments that were already happening around me. Fast forward a bit...I've now been working as a professional photographer for over 5 years, and have had the pleasure of shooting many gorgeous weddings all over New England. I love capturing bold, fun, colorful, creative, and authentic images that you can look back at with an enormous smile on your face for years to come.

Rayleen and Tim shot my wedding in August. I feel so lucky to have been able to share such a special day with them. They truly did not disappoint.

I am so glad you're here! I LOVE my family and I am OBSESSED with anything Kate Spade and if I could live in yoga pants, I would. My favorite thing to do other than photography is cook. I am lucky my husband and kiddos love eating as much as they do! We love the beach and anything Disney! I fully believe in having ice cream for breakfast and I cannot pass by a good Italian restaurant without going in. My heart melts when my boy says I love you or kisses my cheek. Being a photographer has allowed me to freeze some of our sweetest moments and I hope to be able to do that for you. xoxo

I was gifted a camera years ago so I could take photos while traveling. It quickly turned into taking photos of friends and family. I fell in love with being behind the camera. For the last 10 years, I worked at Girls Inc. as a Youth Advocate, which was an amazing job. If there is one thing I took away from the youth that I worked with, it would be to go after your dreams no matter how scary it may be! After I had our son, I decided to pursue my dreams of becoming a full-time photographer. It has also given me the opportunity to stay at home with our son, which is the best job in the world. I can't imagine doing anything else.

Update (after the big day!): Danielle did a wonderful job at our wedding, and we are so in love with her photos. She was able to send them all to us in a matter of a couple weeks.

She was organized and on top of everything from the get-go, which allowed me to relax during the planning process. We did our engagement shoot about a year before the wedding, which helped us to get to know Keleigh before the big day. We used a location that she recommended for the shoot and it was perfect. Also, I had a family emergency several weeks before the wedding, which had put a lot of the planning on hold. Keleigh was very understanding, supportive, and even sent me flowers. This was truly so appreciated and thoughtful. The wedding day itself was great. Keleigh and her assistant knew exactly what they were doing and were so professional. They organized photos with our large bridal party and family quickly and seamlessly. Again, I didn’t feel an ounce of stress. When I received our full photo gallery I was blown away.

Kaitlyn was an incredible photographer to work with! We did 2 engagement photoshoot sessions with her, which were both so fun!! My husband was dreading the photography most, out of all parts of “wedding planning.” But Kaitlyn was able to make him feel relaxed and comfortable so that he actually enjoyed himself! And he actually loves the way he looks in the photos! (He usually hates having his photo taken and the way he photographs.) Kaitlyn was able to capture our silliness, laughter, and genuine happiness in the candid photos which is exactly the look and feel I was hoping for in our photos! (I’m personally not a fan of the stiff posed or moody photos.) Our second engagement shoot also included our dog, which was fantastic! Not only was Kaitlyn great to work with on wedding day and the 2 engagement shoots, she was also a great resource for planning the logistics and timeline of the wedding day. She had great input of the flow of the entire day, which was something I had completely overlooked. Most importantly, Kaitlyn was very professional the entire time. We also gave Kaitlyn the added task of photographing the flower girl nieces (ages 2 & 7 years) and the ring bearer nephew (age 5) who is on the Autism Spectrum. All 3 kiddos still talk months later about how they had so much fun at the wedding! And Kaitlyn was able to capture them all smiling! Photographing dogs and kids is always difficult to ask for, but the photos of our smiling nephew on our wedding day made the parents and grandparents cry tears of joy! It’s rare to catch this kid smiling! We loved working with Kaitlyn, and we can’t wait to do more photoshoots together in the future!

We chatted with Peter and Sarah for about an hour and connected so well - we booked right away! Sarah is incredibly responsive, sweet, professional, and has a great eye. We had so much fun at our engagement shoot where we met both Sarah and Peter. They made us feel so comfortable behind the camera. I think we laughed for the full two hours and the pictures turned out AMAZING. We love the "cinematic" editing. Leading up to our wedding day Sarah made sure we were prepped and ready with instructions and a general timeline that fit in with our schedule. We shared a photo list to make sure we captured everyone and everything - no small feat with our large families and guest list. The day of was again perfect - Sarah and Glory were so fun and accommodating. They felt like good friends behind the camera and blended so well with the bridal party and our guests.

I’m a lively wedding photographer who creates vibrant and bold pictures. I'm based in Rhode Island, but travel all around New England photographing the weddings of fun-loving and creative couples. When I'm not hunched down behind a camera, I'm a wife, mom, voracious reader, and a well-known Wonder Woman fanatic. My family takes up most of my non-photography time. I'm a soccer-chauffer, a teenager piggy-bank, and a local foodie with my husband.

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!

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.

I would highly recommend for your most important occasions! We found about Brett through our wedding planner, and are so happy to have found her. Brett did our wedding photos for both our small ceremony in 2020 and then again at our reception in 2021. The photos from both events were absolutely stunning — she captured many candid shots that truly captured our emotions, and helped position us to ensure the photos had creative and beautiful backdrops. Although we took thousands of photos, the experience was quite organic / natural — Brett has a calming personality and goes with the flow of the day. In addition to the photography itself, we were very impressed by Brett’s professionalism, responsiveness, and flexibility; we had to move our wedding by 13 months due to the pandemic, and Brett was completely understanding and flexible. She also sent us the photos afterwards both through a portal and on a USB. Thanks Brett for helping to capture our special day!

Hi! I'm Kayla, owner and lead photographer at Kayla Rice Photography. I grew up in Southern Vermont and began my venture into the world of professional photography at Syracuse University where I earned my B.S. in Photojournalism. From there, I had careers in newspaper photography and major league baseball before landing where I am today.

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.

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.

These aren't just photos. These are stories. They're your story. My approach is natural. I don't force moments, but I do know when to help direct. I want you to feel comfortable enough to come as you are, and let me capture the true essence of "you", because that is what matters the most. I am a natural light wedding photographer, which means I use solely the natural light outside or inside a building. I know what types of light situations are best, and I know how to combat the ones that are out of our control. I think natural light brings out the creamy tones to skin, makes your eyes sparkle, and makes for an organic photo.

Danielle was AWESOME. We loved working with her from quick zoom calls to the actual day, she was there for us the whole time.

Hi, I'm Sarah- I'm a laid-back, experienced documentary wedding photographer who loves capturing the unique feel of every couple who I work with. My husband Jeff works alongside me for most weddings and together we merge our different perspectives to create heirloom quality, light-driven, and fun images for you to relive your wedding day.

I don’t know where to start with why I love Sarah so much - should I begin with her incredible eye for light? Her wonderfully disarming nature that coaxes authentic joy out of even the most camera-shy couple? Maybe I should mention the efficiency and speed with which she delivers photos, explains payment, and plans her work? I can’t talk enough about her unbelievably creative approach to photography - she is amazing at finding stunning spaces, setting couples in truly unique surroundings (like an ice skating trail, or riding a draft horse in the snow!), and capturing intimate moments that really reflect who you are together. Despite the obvious wrench that COVID threw into our 2020 wedding, Sarah was amazing at accommodating every change in our plans and working out a COVID-safe approach for the micro-wedding we ended up with. Looking back at the amazing photos (which she sent over to us promptly), she captured all the tremendous love we felt and let us move on from the stress of planning. Every photo she shared has the lighting and composition of a Renaissance painting, and we will treasure these images for the rest of our lives. We cannot wait to have her photograph our larger reception down the road, as well as any other photographic needs we may have - and honestly we just love spending time with her, her incredibly cool husband Jeff, and their adorable daughter. Highest recommendation. One million stars out of ten.

Hi there! We're a husband and wife photography team that loves capturing genuine emotion and real moments at your wedding. We believe that there's magic in everything, and our goal as your storytellers is to capture that magic in a way that's honest and true to who you are. We focus on the unique elements that tell the tale of your day, so your final wedding gallery has a timeless storybook feel.

From our first phone call with Jaime & Eddie, we knew they were the perfect couple to capture our big day. They were professional & fun, willing to answer every single question & had the portfolio and expertise we were searching for. Throughout planning, they continue to be a standout vendor. We kept in touch on social media in the early days & Jaime answered every single email quickly and with the exact replies we needed. She is so detailed & caring - I even asked her opinion when choosing between two bridesmaid dress colors and she consulted as a friend and professional. Engagement pictures were another proven point we made the right choice, the photos are unbelievably beautiful but the shoot was so fun! They let us incorporate our dog Ozzie and totally catered to him lol. They achieved our exact vision and over delivered! As the wedding grew closer & planning was getting more detailed, Jaime again, was a rockstar. We had a call to nail down timelines and ensure no detail was missed. The weekend of the wedding, the forecast was calling for thunderstorms and Jaime was allll over the weather, adjusting locations and times as needed so we weren’t scrambling on wedding day. The weather was ultimately on our side and we never saw a rain drop, but I can’t imagine dealing with those unknowns and changes by myself. Wedding day came & they were as stellar as expected! It’s true when they say you’re with your photographers for most of the day, so I am so thankful we genuinely enjoyed spending our day with them. Jaime & Eddie were both thoughtful, kind, creative, flexible, and FUN. We got so many guest compliments about how cool they were. We along with our family could look at these photos for hours. It is so fun reliving that day & we honestly couldn’t have made a better choice than Magic Arrow Photography.

Before heading to my location, she had messaged me and asked if I needed anything before she arrived.

Hey friends! What is the value of a photograph? Well, if it’s art, then its value is determined by the status and popularity of the artist, in most cases anyway. If it’s that one moment at your wedding when your fiancé reads your love note for the first time, sheds that one tear they swore wouldn't happen, then it’s a moment you need captured and archived, because its value is incomprehensible. I’m going to capture that moment and preserve it forever you! Hi! My name is Mark! I'm a wedding photographer in Rhode Island and I'm really excited you're here. Send me a message, I'd love to chat with you about your wedding vision.

I’ve worked with Mark for several weddings and I recommend him highly. As a makeup artist I remember those fellow vendors that made my job easier, but most importantly, the day smoother and more fun for those getting married! He is friendly, calm, professional, unobtrusive and makes everyone feel at ease. I have heard from those that hired him how wonderful he was. He is confident in his craft and with people. It feels like he genuinely likes people and what he does. When I see his work, the colors are as vibrant as they were in real life and my makeup on clients is not “washed out”. In addition to his positive demeanor that makes him a pleasure to have around, and the makeup looking beautiful in his photos, I believe his photography style captures the spirit of the day and brings people closer to reliving the excitement and happiness of such a beautiful life event.

I cannot say enough good things about Keith and his work. In fact, I'm about two months late in posting this review because I've been spending so much time trying to ensure that it perfectly encapsulates how much we loved worked with Keith. This is my best shot (no photo pun intended), but know that my husband and I could go on for pages! We were SO lucky to be connected with Keith by my brother, a former college crew-mate, and even more fortunate that not only was Keith available for our wedding weekend but more than willing to travel out-of-state to photograph our big day. Of all of the vendors we worked with (and there were a lot, even though we ended up having a very small, COVID-conscious wedding), Keith made me feel the most comfortable and totally at ease from day one. He put a great deal of thought and time into his correspondence with me from the very first time I reached out (over a year before our wedding). He was extremely timely in his responses (and still is, even after the wedding!). Even virtually, I felt that we were able to develop a good relationship, which is so important with all of your vendors, but especially your photographer. Keith made every business transaction super easy and overall was just SO good to work with. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Keith continued to demonstrate his patience and empathy as we endured many pandemic related changes. He did not add to that stress at all and his easy-going nature actually put me at ease just days before when I was trying to perfect a timeline for him. The day of the wedding was our first time meeting in person, but it felt like seeing an old friend. He was totally delightful to work with and made both my husband and I feel very comfortable in front of the camera, despite both of us being a little nervous about our modeling skills. Besides being an all-around great person - kind, quiet, thoughtful, intelligent, talented - Keith's photography is out-of-this world stunning. I mean, truly incredible! Monday morning after our wedding, we had tons of sneak peak photos and he delivered our complete album on our one-month anniversary (and remembered that it was our anniversary!) which was several weeks earlier than anticipated. He captured more emotion than I thought possible in EVERY SINGLE PHOTO. We can't stop looking at them, and neither can our friends and family. We cannot wait to book Keith again in the future. Don't hesitate - book Keith today. You won't regret it!

I’ve traveled around the world photographing people and places, and I’m proud to call Boston my home base. I love everything about weddings. Perhaps part of that is because of how happily married I am, how much I enjoyed planning and experiencing my own wedding, and how much happiness I still get from looking at the pictures from my big day. Those images will be with me and bring me joy for the rest of my life. To be able to give someone else such deep and lasting happiness from the images I create just makes me truly fulfilled.

We had a blast working with Julie! She is hilarious and instantly made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Her work is stunning and we loved the way she captured our day. She has the perfect blend of artistic meets classic. I'd recommend her in a heartbeat and am so grateful to have her with us on our big day!

I'm a New England elopement photographer + planner based in New Britain CT. I travel all over New England (no travel fees!) helping couples plan and document their best day ever. I specialize in elopements and weddings under 25 people.

We had Emma be our photographer for our wedding in June 2019 and she was absolutely amazing. From the time of first meeting with Emma to book, leading up to the wedding day, and the wedding day itself, Emma made sure that everything was in place and communicated fully with us about everything. Anytime I needed something she took over and handled it to make sure we had nothing to worry about. I would recommend Emma to anybody as she truly cares about you, your wedding party, and making sure you have the best day ever. A little bonus, we ordered a wedding photo book from her and it is absolutely beautiful, and I highly recommend getting one to remember your special day! Thank you so much Emma! To this day everybody still says how beautiful our wedding photos came out, and how much of a joy you were to work with :)

Holly, 30ish 60 miles away- Active 1 day ago. I Enjoy- Tacos, The Office, Long walks on the beach, I don't have any cats, (just 3 kids, don't worry they're mostly tame) not into games looking for the real deal. What I'm looking for- I looking for real, happy couples who want all the moments of their joy-filled day captured in a real and beautiful way. whoops... wrong profile.... ehhh it works. lol

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I planned our wedding for 2020... before the world went haywire, and Holly rode the wave with us from beginning to end. Between reschedules, engagement photos, her photographing our spur of the moment small elopement, and then our big wedding celebration and vow renewal this year with family and friends, I can say with complete confidence I know her work ethic and her commitment to her craft. And they are both top notch. She will do anything to get the perfect shot, she will make your nervous partner more than comfortable being themselves in front of the camera, and she will even pin a boutonnière (because this bride could not!!) when in need. We have so many perfect moments captured I can't even begin to thank her for, because with the right photographer you can relive a moment over and over. You will not be disappointed if you choose Holly for your special day!

I believe pictures shouldn’t be painful. I want you to feel special, happy, gorgeous, and well-cared-for throughout your photography adventure, but most of all I want you to have fun. A relaxed couple makes an even more beautiful couple on that most important of days, and I will go above and beyond for my couples to ensure that is exactly what happens. I’m not just a photographer on your wedding day: I’m a friend.

I've never been comfortable in front of a camera and our engagement shoot was a big point of anxiety for me. Within 5 minutes, we were laughing and completely relaxed. It resulted in beautiful photos. Between that time and the wedding, we had developed such a friendship that she was more of a guest than a vendor. Her creativity and eye were just incredible. Our photos and photo book are amazing. We'd hire her again and again and again.

Hi! I'm Hannah. I'm a wedding photographer of 8 years, a wife, and an occupational therapist. I have always loved stories.​ Your relationship is a fun, unique story unlike anyone else's, so your photography should reflect that. When I work with you, my goal is to capture your personalities, passions, and relationship styles. For this reason, sessions with me are fairly relaxed-- I like to give you time to be yourself and interact, which showcases your unique quirks, #relationshipgoals, and ways of loving each other.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hannah is incredible!! She is so personable, easy to work with, communications quickly and efficiently, and most importantly, brought our special day to life. If you don’t know how to pose exactly, she makes you feel comfortable and helps you relax. Can’t recommend her enough!

Hi, I'm Addie. I started this business about 10 years ago, although photography has been a passion of mine since high school. What attracted me to photography is the idea of capturing the fleeting: be they big moments or small, capturing something priceless never gets old for me. When you look at a photo, you are transported back to instant it was taken. Even if your memory is foggy, a photo will sharpen it up. Photos are records and reminders, memories and wormholes in time. Helping to preserve those fleeting moments for my clients is so fulfilling and one of the things I love most about what I do.

Awarded Best of Zola
Addie is pure magic. We hired Addie twice - for both our tiny covid ceremony and our larger reception one year later. Addie is a true professional - her energy and her sense of humor made us feel comfortable and we had a blast posing for her! And of course, her wildly talented photography is framed all over our apartment. She is grounded, calm, patient and a total joy to work with - having her be part of our two very special days was such a bonus and she is worth her weight in gold. Hire Addie - it will be the best decision you make for your big day!

Hi, I’m Danielle! I'm from Massachusetts and currently live in Chelmsford with my fiancé and our cat, Darryl Strawberry. I'm a very easy-going, positive person who is always looking on the bright side of things. I like to stay busy and I work a lot, but I balance my work with time in nature, trips to the sauna, and classes at the gym. I lived in Spain for 5 years and am fluent in Spanish. I have traveled quite a bit (and still do!) and love to explore new places & meet awesome people! I love nights in cooking & bingeing shows with my fiancé (currently watching What We Do in the Shadows).

I hired Danielle for my engagement photos, my wedding photos, and newborn photos for both of my kids and I cannot recommend her enough! Danielle listened to everything that I wanted and made sure to incorporate my wishes in each session. She was professional, yet very laid back and incredibly easy to work with. She worked so well with our kids and our dog! Danielle edited all of my photos super fast and sent the albums to me very quickly. I highly recommend hiring Danielle for all of your photo needs!
