Ryan, Jenn and their team were so great to work with. They were so down to earth, while ensuring to always stay professional. I had a great time throughout the process, and they made sure to always make us feel like our opinions mattered. My wife and I did extensive research before picking a photo/video company as we are in a same sex relationship. We wanted to make sure we were supported like any other couple. Whenever we seen how inclusive and diverse the Willow Co. was, we knew they were the ones. Their work exudes love and peace, and those two qualities were super important to us. Cheers to many more years of business to a great company! Sending our love to you all.

When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me. She curated a family shot list, and let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her and her team were amazing.

  • Serves Oakland, RI

I think you might be here because you're a little turned off by performative wedding photography. Maybe you don't even want a wedding photographer, exactly. Maybe you just want a good photographer to photograph your wedding. A lot of the people I work with describe themselves as anti-bride. Not anti-wedding. They just don't want the day to feel like a list of things to get through.

Awarded Best of Zola
Madison photographed my destination wedding in Antigua in June of 2024 and I could not have asked for a better photographer! We had a unique request for only candid photos throughout our three nights of events (we wanted the only posed photos to be quick group shots with family and friends right after our ceremony). She was so excited by the idea and over-delivered on all our wishes. She captured so many candid moments of my husband and me, of us celebrating with our dearest friends and family, and special moments of our guests that we hadn't gotten to see. The photos came out so beautifully, it's hard to believe they were truly candid and unplanned. It was such a gift to have these memories preserved; going through our wedding albums was like re-living all three days because she captured us in the middle of the memories as we made them. She has such an incredible talent and ability to capture the essence of each person she photographs. The lighting and aesthetic of the photos was also exactly as I had hoped, and each stage of each event was captured beautifully so that it transports us right back. We also wanted Madison to be a part of our celebration, and every single guest who interacted with her had the most gushing, glowing things to say about how lovely she is. I heard from so many of our guests that they completely forgot she was taking photos - she was so non-intrusive when she was shooting, so she was able to capture actual candid moments without people even realizing she was doing it. Madison was an asset and gift in every way during our celebrations, and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a photographer. She delivered on every wish we had, and was just such a pleasure to have at our events, lending a calm, sweet, and always helpful presence. She became a part of our friends and family as much as she was our photographer during our wedding. We are so grateful for her and will treasure the stunning photos she took for us forever.

Based in Rhode Island and serving all of New England. Love By The Ocean Co. is a wedding photography business that is dedicated to capturing your most cherished memories in breathtaking detail, creating timeless images to be treasured for a lifetime. As a dedicated wedding photography business, I go above and beyond to fully cater to each couple, delivering a personalized experience that exceeds expectations. From the quiet, intimate moments to the grand celebrations, we document your wedding day with unmatched quality and care.

If you are here reading reviews trying to decide on a photographer for your engagement shoot, wedding, or truly any special moment in your life, this is the only review you need. From the moment we met Nick, his kindness, compassion, and vision were unmatched. He immediately made me feel comfortable and confident. Within minutes, he asked what my favorite side was (ladies, if you know, you know!) and made sure we looked amazing from every angle. He guided us through poses seamlessly, always pointing out little details - a leg bend here, a hand placement there - so we never felt awkward or unsure. His professionalism and genuine care for his couples shine through in every shot. We received our photos so quickly, and I was absolutely blown away. We had shared a Pinterest board for inspiration, and Nick not only brought it to life but elevated it beyond anything I could have imagined. Honestly, our gallery looks like it belongs in a magazine .. I will never get over it. When I opened our gallery, I was speechless. My whole family cried. Every single photo was breathtaking. Nick is a master in every setting - as the sun shifted, he instinctively knew how to capture the most flattering, magical lighting. It’s been a week, and we still can’t choose just three favorites to enlarge for our home because every photo feels like a masterpiece. I also need to mention that my fiancé owns a wedding videography company, so the bar for our photographer was set very high. He now recommends Nick to every couple he works with, because he knows no one does it better - and after seeing our photos, I completely agree. I don’t usually leave reviews, but Nick’s talent and kindness deserve to be recognized. These were only our engagement photos, and I already can’t wait to see the magic he creates on our wedding day in 2027. So to all the brides and couples out there: do yourself the biggest favor and book Love By the Ocean Photography. Nick is truly the best of the best, and you’ll be over the moon that you did. With light, and SO much truth, Lexi R.

Hi, I’m Nicole (she/her) - a Rhode Island-based wedding photographer.

The result is a narrative visual story of enduring human connections, and a chronicle of emotional moments that they can revisit time and time again.

I truly cannot say enough about our experience working with Nicole for our wedding!! From start to finish, she was professional, kind, and just incredibly talented. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera which was one of our main concerns, and this really showed in the photos. Nicole made the whole process so easy and enjoyable. She really helped us with planning out our timeline and making sure we had time to actually enjoy our day, not just pose for photos. Her attention to detail and calming presence made everything run so smoothly. She blended in seamlessly to the day, but was also there to direct and assert herself when we needed her to without even having to ask. We had multiple family members and friends compliment how well she directed the day and how she made everyone feel so comfortable! Getting our photos back was so exciting and seeing how they came out made us feel so overjoyed and just allowed us to relive all the feelings of that day over and over again. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to capture our wedding day. She’s amazing, and we’ll cherish these photos forever!!

Hello! I'm Lynne Damiano and I am so excited to connect with you! The moments I love to capture are genuine and simple, and preserve what is happening in the moment. I have a photojournalistic style and edit true to life with vibrant color. I capture the best moments in an unobtrusive way. A few more of my favorite things are hiking with our crazy rescue dogs, traveling with my family, making art with my daughter, and doing anything near or on the ocean (hence my business name!) I look forward to connecting with you and creating memories that you can reflect on for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve always been extremely camera shy, and honestly, the idea of being in front of a camera all day was one of the things I was most nervous about for our wedding. But working with Lynne Damiano and Sail Away Photography completely changed that experience for me. From the very beginning, Lynne made my wife and me feel comfortable, relaxed, and truly seen. On a day that can already feel overwhelming, she had this incredible way of helping us settle into the moment and just be ourselves. Instead of feeling posed or staged, we felt completely at ease in our natural beauty and in the love we share. We also had absolutely no experience with photoshoots and didn’t know where to start. Lynne was instrumental in helping us choose beautiful locations that matched our style and worked perfectly with our wedding setting. She even suggested small accessories to elevate the photos—and showed up with a bottle of champagne for us to celebrate with, which was such a thoughtful touch. During the shoot, she was amazing at gently coaching us on how to pose so we looked our best, but it never felt awkward or forced. And while we traveled from spot to spot, she was so easy to talk to that it felt more like spending time with a friend than working with a photographer—which really helped in such an intimate, emotional moment. By the end of the day, what I had been most nervous about became one of the most special and joyful parts of our wedding. I can’t recommend Lynne Damiano and Sail Away Photography highly enough. If you want someone who not only captures beautiful photos but also makes you feel comfortable, confident, and celebrated while doing it, she’s the one.

Crissy and Amanda of Bayless Photography, Inc. were all we could’ve hope for on our wedding day! From the initial planning process, Crissy was very responsive and professional, ensuring she understood exactly what we wanted. On the day of the wedding, both Crissy and Amanda were personable, fun, and helped create a relaxed, positive vibe that put everyone at ease. The final photos we have so far are absolutely beautiful - they captured all the special moments we wanted, as well as some beautiful candid shots we didn't even know we needed. We received our "sneak peek" of the photos so quickly, which was wonderful.

Tracy is an amazing photographer that gave us exactly what we wanted when it came to our wedding photos. She is very personable and put us at ease with our engagement shoot. We enjoyed working with her and we couldn’t have asked for a better representation of our beautiful wedding day. We will be recommending her to anyone we hear needs a photographer from now on.

My passion for photography stems from my love of travel and capturing life's precious moments. There's nothing more fulfilling than preserving the most beautiful days of your life. Photos are a return ticket to moments gone. My goal is to create lasting memories that inspire and evoke emotions. I believe my purpose is the impact my work has on others. This is my 15th year, and it gets better with each passing year.

I can't say enough about how amazing Stacy is! She has photographed all our family milestones so I knew we would be in good hands when I booked her for our wedding. She exceeded all expectations. I was blown away when I opened the sneak peek photos. I could not stop looking at them. Not only were her photography skills amazing, she was responsive, supportive and available to help all throughout the planning process and on our big day. We had some hiccups that day and I think I would have never managed to pull it off without her. She was definitely my rock. It was stressful due to a malfunction that caused some damage. She didn't even flinch. She came up with a plan on the spot and moved us forward. Thank goodness for her amazing photos! I am able to sit back, look through them and take it all in because they captured everything perfectly. Thank you for being the amazing human being that you are!

Erika was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. We had a small, daytime wedding, and she was very accommodating with our needs. The process on the day-of was easy and natural. Even as people who don't typically like getting our picture taken, we are absolutely thrilled with the photos and would highly recommend Erika Eggleston Photography.

Hey, I’m Mark, a Rhode Island wedding photographer. I photograph weddings throughout southern RI, the Newport mansions, Cape Cod, and places with character—coastal estates, barns, mills, and rustic spaces. I became a photographer because I love work that brings people joy. Being trusted to capture meaningful moments is deeply rewarding, and it’s what led me to pursue this full-time. I’ve been a professional photographer since 2019. Since then, I’ve photographed over 130 weddings. My focus is creating an experience that feels calm, natural, and genuinely enjoyable—so couples can stay present and focused on the day itself.

Tom at OGM Photography was the perfect wedding photographer for our special day. From the moment we first spoke, we could tell he was patient, experienced, and had a chill, easygoing demeanor that put us at ease. His work is truly superb - artful, tasteful, and thoughtful. He captured all the special moments as a thoughtful observer, but also kindly guided us and our guests to achieve optimal pictures.

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.

I have NO WORDS to describe how much we loved working with Marilia! From the beginning, she totally understood our vision and assured us that even though we are (self-proclaimed) extremely awkward in front of the camera, she’d help us get some awesome photos. BOY did she deliver! She made us feel so at ease all day and truly captured the wedding the way it was. I have no clue how she was able to capture all the love, joy, and absolute debauchery so authentically, but we are so grateful she did. She didn’t miss a single moment! Typically, my husband and I feel so uncomfortable on camera but we absolutely adored how these photos came out. She did such a great job capturing the day as it was - we didn’t have to think about posing, she just captured it all! I could go on and on for paragraphs about how great Marilia is, but just know that if you’re looking for a very cool, professional, kind photographer who will capture your wedding in a super authentic way, Marilia is the way to go!
