“We can't recommend OLAS enough! Our photographer, Victoria, was amazing—super bubbly and made us feel comfortable right away during both our engagement and wedding shoots. She was so fun to work with while remaining highly professional and knowledgeable. The variety in our photos was incredible, but some of my favorites were the natural ones that perfectly captured our personalities. The rest of the OLAS team was also fantastic, helping us develop a detailed timeline and sharing portfolios of potential photographers to choose from. We received our photos quickly, and they were beautifully edited and of exceptional quality. Be sure to check out OLAS—and definitely ask for Victoria!”

Your wedding day moves fast — the nervous excitement before the ceremony, the hug from someone you haven't seen in years, the look between you two when no one else is watching. I'm here to catch all of it, so years from now you can look back and feel it again, not just see it. I blend documentary storytelling with an editorial eye — refined, intentional images that still feel real. Nothing overly posed, nothing you'll look back on and wince at. My background in art direction and a lifetime spent moving between countries shaped how I see a scene: I notice light, composition, and the small human moments most people miss.

“We had such a wonderful experience working with raiana! From our very first conversation, communication was excellent. They were responsive, attentive, and made sure every detail was thoughtfully planned. We especially appreciated their attention to detail and how smoothly everything came together. she captured the important moments beautifully, while also noticing the little moments that made our day special. My grandma's picture is one of my favorite. The delivery was also incredibly fast, which was such a lovely surprise. We’re so grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully and would absolutely recommend Raiana to other couples!”

“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.”

Mae was extremely friendly and guided us through the entire process, offering valuable suggestions that made our proposal even more special. The quality of her work is truly exceptional - the photos they captured are not only beautifully composed, but also incredibly meaningful and full of raw emotion that we will cherish forever. Mae was discreet and able to capture intimate, candid moments that truly reflect the joy and love of our proposal. We are beyond thrilled with the final results and would highly recommend Mae Krell Photo to any couple looking for a talented, professional photographer to document their special occasions.”

“Blythe Eland Photography was a joy to work with for our wedding day. From the first moment we spoke with Blythe, she was so easy and pleasant to communicate with - she knew exactly what she was doing so we could just show up and she would handle everything with grace and ease. Blythe was incredible throughout the entire process, and we were so happy with our experience shooting with her. She was so helpful and on top of everything, and managed to capture exactly what we wanted while also adding her own beautiful artistic flair. We couldn't believe how amazing the photos turned out - Blythe has such a compassionate, wholesome, and genuine approach that is truly reflected in the outstanding quality of her work.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer. She was personable, professional, and made everyone feel so comfortable in front of the camera, including my camera shy family. She kept the day running smoothly while capturing every picture I requested and the meaningful moments behind them beautifully. Even while very pregnant, she absolutely crushed it! She was on her feet all day AND STILL breaking it down on the dance floor all night. Her positivity, organization, and genuine care truly showed in both her work and her presence. We are so grateful she was there. Having her as both our photographer and now our friend made the experience even more special. I would 1000% recommend her to anyone without hesitation!! 3 Also, a shoutout to her husband, Chris! He was great and fun on the dance floor as well!”

“Barry is a cousin to my husband and he exceeded our expectations!! I really didn’t come across not 1 bad picture in the MANY pictures we received. His personality is great, and it seemed like he had a “crew” with how he captured every moment. I can’t wait to frame some of my pictures and honestly they are magazine quality. Thanks again for making our wedding spectacular, we’ll have memories for a lifetime!!”
