  • Serves Essex, MA

My name is Taylor — I’m a husband, father, teacher, ocean lover, and videographer / editor based out of CT and Cape Cod. I’ve been passionate about photography for as long as I can remember, and deep down I’ve always felt that capturing moments was in some way my calling. A few years ago I began to realize that photographs — even the most compelling ones — are not able to tell an entire story. They provide a powerful glimpse, frozen in time, but even the best photographs are unable to preserve memories and emotions the way that films can.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't say enough great things about Taylor! I knew from our initial call that I wanted him on our vendor team and I couldn't be happier with my decision! His films capture the elegant and timeless vibes I was hoping for and he was an absolute joy to plan and work with. Taylor and my photographer blended seamlessly and teamed up on the big day to work their magic. Our social media reel is my favorite thing to watch now and we're so excited to see the final product! Taylor is truly gifted and I would highly recommend him to any bride!

Hey friends! I'm Jess - the owner, creator, artist and photographer behind Coral Compass Photo Co.! I have been in the wedding industry for eight years, experiencing each wedding differently with a fresh new vision, as no two wedding days are ever the same. I am based just north of New Hampshire's seacoast and travel nationally for events! I believe in genuine moments, authentic portraits and letting your awkward shine!! I can't wait to connect xo

Awarded Best of Zola
Jess - we are speechless. She is incredibly talented, so fun, so kind. She was punctual (early) on our wedding day and she and her second shooter went straight to work. They kept us laughing and smiling all day, and allowed us space for all the emotions you feel on wedding day. Her encouragement from behind the camera made it easy to capture the most beautiful shots. She effectively directed our wedding party and family members for photos - and even wrangled a few overtired toddlers for a nice shot! We were so comfortable with her all day. Communicating with her before the wedding was seamless - she sent a survey and followed our shot list so we have every photo we wanted. AND we had the privilege of working with Jess three times - our engagement photos, our bridal shower, and our wedding. We cannot wait to continue our relationship with Jess in the future. She is an incredibly caring, compassionate, and charismatic human and an amazing photographer. Thank you Jess!

Elizabeth was the perfect photographer for our wedding! From our initial meeting, I knew she was the most qualified, prepared, and detailed oriented person for the job! She was so organized, and helped our day go super smooth. She provided questionnaires for us to make sure we were on the same page, and knew our values. We met a week before the wedding to go over details, and prepare for the big day which made us get super excited for everything too! My husband and I were a little nervous being the center of attention and in front of the camera the entire day, but she made us feel so comfortable and natural! She was familiar with our Church, and took the extra step to go to our venue prior to the wedding to familiarize herself with that setting as well! I did not even get started on how BEAUTIFUL the pictures came out! Her pictures can be described as light, airy, and fun! We could not believe how stunning and perfect she captured our day. We have gotten so many compliments on the style and edits of our photos. She even writes a blog with her pictures that summarize the day and captures all the moments! Elizabeth gave us the sneak peak 3 days after the wedding which was so fun to go through during our honeymoon, and was early to send us our final images back. I can't wait to use her for future life events, and will highly recommend her to everyone anywhere and especially in the southern NH area!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Keleigh Michelle Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our 4/27/24 wedding. I remember feeling so overwhelmed with all of the options for photographers. I had no idea what our style was, or what we should look for or prioritize in a photographer. After filling out a million inquiries, Keleigh’s responsiveness and thorough replies was what initially made her stand out to me. She asked the right questions and helped me land on a package that made the most sense for our wedding without pressuring me or upselling me on anything. We were also drawn to her gorgeous gallery- her pictures exude beauty, sophistication, and pure emotion. Keleigh’s professionalism and talent are what sold us on booking with her. From booking to wedding day, working with Keleigh felt like working with a friend. I could text/email her with the silliest questions and know that she would respond, give me the info I needed, and hype me up! We had a beautiful engagement session on the beach, where Keleigh drove almost 2 hours to meet us at a location that had significance for us. She helped us feel comfortable in front of a camera, and delivered the most gorgeous engagement gallery. In preparing for our wedding day, Keleigh sent us a lengthy guide that answered common questions and helped us feel prepared for our big day. We had a call to go over logistics for the day, put together a list of people we wanted to have in portraits, and make a timeline for getting ready photos. Even up until the day before the wedding, Keleigh was able to accommodate details shifting without question. She brought Lindsey Morrissey as a second photographer who was also phenomenal. Leticia, Keleigh’s assistant, took some awesome BTS shots that are such a cool touch to have to look back at memories. On our wedding day, Keleigh commanded the room and got all of our portraits of us with wedding party/family done seemingly effortlessly right after our first look. I was anxious about getting all of these photos done and still having time to reset prior to walking down the aisle. Keleigh made the process so efficient that we finished with more than enough time to return to the bridal suite and hang out with our wedding party before lining up for the ceremony. We were able to sneak away for some more portraits after the ceremony, and had no doubt that we’d gotten all of the formal pictures we wanted in a timely manner while still being able to enjoy our day. Not even 24 hours after our wedding, we got over 50 sneak peeks from our gallery. We CANNOT get over how beautiful they are. We’ve had so many friends and family say that they are some of the best wedding photos they’ve ever seen. We are so thrilled to get our full gallery back and hang our photos in our house, build photo albums for family members, and look back fondly on our wedding day for years to come. Thank you, thank you, thank you Keleigh for capturing our wedding so perfectly and being a friend throughout the entire process. We recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding/event photographer, and hope to work with her again!

My husband and I got married in September in Providence, RI. I knew I wanted a photographer that was bright and colorful because of the venue and vibe of the day. I was nervous I wasn’t going to be able to find someone and would need to settle because I planned our wedding in 4 months. The original photographer I reached out to was not available and gave me Maria’s information. I was excited that she had the availability on such short notice, but once we had our first call with her I knew we had made the right decision and the day was going to be a blast. Communication up to our wedding was precise and clear. When the day came, it felt like we had known Maria and Jackson our entire lives. It was like hanging out with some of our closest friends. They made sure we got all the shots that we wanted, but also still enjoyed every second of the day. We did do a first look so it helped with picture timing but what was considered our cocktail hour (the entire night was cocktail style) they followed us around and took candida and groups when necessary. It was perfect. Not once did we feel like we had taken too many pictures. We got married on a rooftop but they also made sure that we had shots in the city streets and a large variety of locations. When we got our sneak peaks I was truly speechless (and ugly crying). I was absolutely blown away by how PERFECTLY they had captured our day. You could feel the joy radiating from the photos and the colors and clarity was unbelievable. I am still speechless and in awe of how amazing our pictures came out. Our day was absolutely perfect but Maria and Jackson for sure made it memorable with the most breathtaking pictures. They truly tell a story and how fun the entire night was. I look at the photos constantly and I don’t foresee that stopping anytime soon. We get SO many compliments from people about how beautiful they are and everyone asks who the photographer was. I 100000% recommend MTD Photo. Hands down one of the best decisions we could’ve made for the day.

Working with Marissa, Doug & the MBE team was truly the best investment we could have made for our wedding day! We booked MBE back in January 2024 for our June 2025 wedding for partial planning & day-of coordination. Throughout the planning process, Marissa was my ROCK, making sure we stayed on track with booking vendors, creating a mood board for our day, budgeting, sending out save the dates and invitations, and taking all the necessary steps for a perfect day. Alyssa, MBE’s graphic designer, created our save the dates and invitations and was so amazing to work with, too! All our prep work led to the most perfect and seamless wedding day.

Thanks to the MBE team, everything was absolutely perfect and we were able to have stress-free morning getting ready with the bridal party.

Sara and her team made me look and feel more beautiful than I have ever felt, and most importantly, I was comfortable and stress-free throughout the entire process. Sara is an absolute master at her craft, and incredibly professional every step of the way, but it was her kindness and openness that I valued the most. From our initial phone call, to the trial, to the day of, Sara had me laughing and chatting as if we had known each other for years. I felt comfortable sharing my bridal anxieties with her, and trusted that she was going to make my girls and I look our best on the big day. Because of Sara and her team, getting ready for the wedding was one of the most fun parts of the day. It was relaxed, stress-free, and fun, and I was sad to see Sara and her team go at the end of it, because I just wanted to hang out with them all day! One specific thing that sets Sara apart was her ability to work with every type of client. My mom does not wear makeup nor does she feel comfortable getting all dolled up, but Sara handled that with a pro, not making my mom feel any pressure with how she looked. She did such a masterful job that I even caught my mom checking herself out in the mirror a few times throughout the night, which never happens! Hiring Sara will be the best decision of your wedding planning experience - I cannot recommend her enough!!

When it came to curating the perfect dining experience for our wedding, Chef Munah and her team exceeded every expectation and then some. From the very beginning, Chef Munah made us feel seen, heard, and deeply cared for. She worked closely with my husband and me to craft a menu that celebrated the richness of our cultures, blending flavors and traditions into a meal that was not just food but an experience—one that embodied the warmth, connection, and joy we wanted our wedding day to reflect. Her attention to detail was impeccable. From planning to execution, her professionalism, creativity, and passion were evident every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, her team was nothing short of extraordinary. The servers were attentive, kind, and gracious, always ensuring that every guest was taken care of. Their punctuality, preparation, and seamless coordination made everything feel effortless, allowing us to simply enjoy the day. Chef Munah herself was truly a godsend. Even on the wedding day, she made herself available to support us, going above and beyond to make sure every element of the dining experience was flawless. Her talent and care shone through in every bite. My family and friends are still raving about how it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had—a sentiment echoed over and over again in the days and weeks since. The love and intention she poured into her dishes made every guest feel like part of a beautiful, shared story. Choosing Chef Munah was also meaningful to us as we were thrilled to support a woman-owned business. She embodies grace, resilience, and immense talent, and it was an honor to have her as such an integral part of our day. If you're looking for someone who will not only serve food but also bring heart, artistry, and community to your table, look no further than Chef Munah. She is a gift, and her work is truly unmatched. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Chef Munah, for making our wedding day so special and memorable. You and your team are simply amazing!

Alyssa Marie Photography

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Essex, MA

For as long as I can remember I have always loved to create. My passion for photography started when I was a teen. As I honed in on my craft I began to photograph on a more professional level right out of high school, but stepped away for academic pursuits. After completing both a bachelors and master's degree in Anthropology, I came full circle, determining that a career in doing something creative was where my heart lies. Whether it is your wedding, or any other special moment in your life, I cherish the opportunity to document it in a way that highlights the artistic elements, while still capturing an authenticness that is uniquely you.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alyssa Marie Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photographer. From the very beginning, their communication was excellent - they were always prompt in responding to our questions and followed up to ensure we were on the same page. On the day of the wedding, Alyssa was a pleasure to work with, guiding us into the perfect poses and capturing beautiful, natural shots that truly reflected the joy of our special day. The final photos were of incredible quality, with beautiful editing that made every moment shine. Alyssa and her team were thorough in getting all the shots we requested, and we couldn't be happier with the beautiful memories they've preserved for us. We highly recommend Alyssa Marie Photography to any couple looking for an experienced, talented, and personable wedding photographer.

Antonelli Visual Media

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Starts at $3,895
  • Serves Essex, MA

When I was 12 years old my grandfather left his Canon Camcorder at my house "by accident" (I still say that he knew how much I loved it and left it on purpose). Ever since then I've had a passion for filming and storytelling. We film all kinds of events, commercials and sizzle reels for social media, but a wedding day is different. It's joy, it's tears, and it's butterflies. It's old memories colliding with new ones. It's a simple and common celebration but one that it truly unique for the couple experiencing it...and I love capturing every moment!

I've been working with Bob and his team for more than five years. They're responsive, detailed oriented, and work great as part of the overall vendor team (which is not always the case with other videographers!). I can't stress enough how important it is to have photographers and videographers that work well together, and that's why we are always recommending Antonelli Visual Media.

Named one of the nation’s top psychics, Eve of Elite Tarot entertains your guests with unique, fun, and above all, professional and positive tarot card readings. Eve's readings are positive, optimistic, and empowering. Rather than fortune telling, readings focus on using energy effectively for optimal success and happiness.

Eve is fantastic to work with—professional, organized, and an excellent communicator. Her experience showed in both the detailed planning and the way she engaged with our guests. She was warm and welcoming to all, treating each reading with care and attention from start to finish. I’m always happy to recommend her and keep an eye out for other opportunities to do so.

Hi, I'm Josiah! I grew up in New Hampshire but lived in Los Angeles for over 4 years, working on set of Oscar-nominated films, music videos, TV shows, and much more, learning everything I could in the art of visual storytelling. Since the pandemic, my wife and I have moved back to New Hampshire and have started a small wedding photography/videography business, Sierra does photos and Josiah does videos.

We highly recommend JosiahDoesVideos for wedding videography. We were skeptical of the investment as weddings cost a lot and this wasn't a necessity for us, but we are so happy to have had Josiah on our wedding day. He is very easy going, listens to the couples wants and needs, and has great eye for detail. We would highly recommend him!
