“I was recommended Rhode Tripper Photography by my makeup artist, Sydney, because she knew I wanted a local photographer who shot on film and digital with an organic, natural style. I wanted real, intimate, beautifully captured moments that showcased Providence perfectly. I am so happy I took her advice!
From the start, it was incredibly easy to work with them. During our initial call, Meaghan really got to know us to ensure they could capture exactly what we were looking for. Their pricing is more than fair for the expertise they bring, and they were even willing to work within our budget for some adjustments, which was incredible.
We are so glad we did the engagement shoot. Like Meaghan and Evan recommended, it gave us time to get comfortable being photographed. While I talk a lot through my shyness, my (now) husband Sean is more traditionally quiet, neither of us are 'typical' models and we’d both prefer to be behind the camera. Spending time with them got us used to organic movements and posing. Those photos were so incredible that we displayed them at our wedding and have them framed in our home. I never felt more beautiful... until our wedding day!
Leading up to the wedding, we had a final check-in to review the timeline. They made sure they were aware of family dynamics and made us feel 100% ready. If I was concerned about anything, I just thought, 'Meaghan and Evan will take care of it.' This was especially true when the weather looked bad. As an anxious person, I started to freak out, but Meaghan calmed me down, talked through contingency plans, and assured us everything would be beautiful. She was right!
On the day, they were right on time for detail shots and getting-ready photos. After our first look and portraits at the Airbnb, Meaghan and Evan headed to City Hall to capture our ceremony, then walked with us in the rain to Gracie’s for our reception. They took care of everything. I even forgot they were there at points! They bring life to the party and blend in with guests, creating natural photos. They even joined our after-party at the Dusty Planet for mini-golf photos before heading home.
In less than 24 hours, we had our sneak peeks, and they made me cry! I’ve never seen myself look happier than I do in those photos looking at Sean. Sean also mentioned he forgot they were there at times, which says a lot for someone who isn't comfortable in front of a camera.
We could not recommend them more! Not only do we have go-to photographers now, but we’ve gained two new friends. They are amazing people who capture perfect moments. Please, please book them! Getting our Polaroids at the end of the night was one of the most special moments for us once we got home. I know Meaghan even does custom photo albums, and we might explore that down the line to create something special for us. She truly does it all, she even helped my mom button my dress on the wedding day. We love them so much!”
