I’m Felisha, an Award Winning - Published New England Wedding + Portrait photographer with the honor of capturing love stories and cherished moments across New England since 2013. Photography isn’t just my career—it’s the way I connect with people, turning clients into dear friends and fleeting moments into timeless memories. When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll find me soaking up life with my high school sweetheart, our beautiful daughter, and our two chocolate Labradors. My heart beats for real, authentic moments—the kind where love and laughter come effortlessly.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our goal for wedding photos was to be transported back to our wedding day - more of a storytelling style than formal portraits. Felisha totally nailed it, and somehow managed to capture some extra magic in there too. Leading up to the wedding, Felisha was great at helping us feel comfortable with her, and we’re usually camera shy! We felt like we made a new friend! We weren’t planning to do a “first look”, but after how much we loved our engagement photos we decided to add that element to our wedding day as an excuse to get more time with Felisha and have some more Amazing portraits. During the wedding, Felisha and her second shooter were totally professional and unobtrusive - we didn’t notice them doing their thing, and neither did our guests. She was fun to work with, super on top of everything, and the results speak for themselves. We’re already dreaming up other life events that we might want to have professionally photographed, as an excuse to work with her again!

Lindsay and Nathan are an incredible team. From booking them two years ago, doing our engagement session, and now having gotten sneak peaks back from our wedding that was just 2 days ago, I’m completely blown away by how incredible they have been! Lindsay is a complete pro. Group photos flew by because she was so great at directing and wrangling everyone. I had multiple people comment on how she was EVERYWHERE non-stop at our wedding, doing an amazing job the whole time! I just know she got every picture I wanted and more, and with how gorgeous our sneak peaks turned out I know I’ll absolutely love them! She and Nathan were so on top of everything, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. Not only that, she truly went above and beyond helping to safety pin a rip in my dress.

Hello, my lovely couples! My name is Annie and I have started my business at the beginning of 2023 and so far I've had clients from all over the East Coast. I am focused on Partial, Full time Wedding planning, Elopements and A-la carte. My goal is to help my clients and make sure that their wedding goes by the plan that they created.

Awarded Best of Zola
Annie from Before You Say I Do was an exceptional day-of-coordinator for our special day. Her communication style was frequent, clear, thoughtful, timely, and she was quick to respond to all of our questions and needs. The quality of her work and the value she provided was excellent-- she is hard-working and was incredibly considerate throughout the entire process. She went above and beyond, offering to bring additional decorations and even showing up the day before to assist with our traditional Vietnamese Tea Ceremony, which was not even on the same day as our official wedding. We had only hired her for her day-of coordination package, but even so, she was a consistent voice and helping hand for us for months leading up to the wedding. I can only imaging if we would have booked her whole wedding planning service, our wedding probably would have somehow been even more perfect than it already was. We are so grateful for her dedication and attention to detail in making our wedding day perfect. I highly recommend booking Annie!

I am a New England girl through and through - born and raised in Framingham, MA, I now reside with my husband, daughter, cat and dog in Ayer, MA. During a New England Summer, you can catch me at Fenway on a Sunday afternoon or having the best lobster roll (change my mind) at Sesuit Harbor Cafe on Cape Cod. When I’m not taking or editing photos, I am most definitely in the kitchen whipping up a meal from one of Ina Garten’s cookbooks. Love that woman. Or playing with my daughter, Tessa and our pup, Lucy in our backyard. I’m so excited to meet you and to create lasting images that will hang in your home for years to come!

We loved working with Jen for our engagement and wedding photos! Overall, she is just an absolute professional and knows exactly what to do. She did a great job managing our timeline and shot list and provided very clear directions with group photos so everyone knew exactly what to do. The photos themselves came out so beautifully and exactly what we had envisioned - she did an awesome job taking advantage of our venue and the scenery. We also got sneak peek photos back within 48 hours! As a person, Jen is so warm, friendly, confident, and a prompt communicator. She even took the time to help me out with an issue I was having with my dress, even though it shouldn't have been a photographer's job. We can't wait to get all of our photos back. Highly recommend Jen!

From setting up a quote, to going over what we wanted on the day Kim and Cassandra were great. On the day itself the musicians were great, played exactly the songs we wanted and were flexible with some extra music where needed. I would highly recommend Bright Set to anyone going forward!

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.

Ari is the most incredible photographer you will ever work with. Not only does she make the entire process clear and near effortless on the part of the planners, but she truly listens and makes sure to capture the moments you desire most. Whether that be candid shots capturing the moment through the eyes of your guests, or of your guest, or posed/group/headshots perfect for profile pictures or to hang up - she can do it all and with the most wonderful joyful energy. My partner and I felt so comfortable, and confident, in working with Ari knowing she was approaching our wedding with as much care and nerdy flair as we were - and it was the best decision we made. She is such a delight and we couldn't be happier with our pictures and the memories we can look back on.

Words cannot begin to express our gratitude for this team and their dedication, professionalism, and craftsmanship. They truly delivered the wedding film of our dreams. From start to finish, they were responsive and really cared to understand our vision and what were looking for. No vendor has ever maintained such consistent communication and the woman we spoke to at the start answered all my questions and really made me feel confident in choosing them. Our prep call with videographer, Patrick, was so professional and thorough. He went moment by moment asking what we wanted captured at every stage of our wedding day. He was so meticulous and detail-oriented. He was legitimately writing every single thing done and asking specific questions to make sure he didn’t miss anything. And on the day, he and the other videographers were on time, friendly, knew when and how to capture the perfect shots, all while not making it awkward or being too intrusive. We had very special items and details we wanted captured. They didn’t miss a single thing. From a special rosary to my father-bride reveal to adorable moments of our flower girl, every single thing we hoped would be remembered, it was there on film. Oh not to mention, they are one of the few business I could find that didn’t *just* deliver a 3-5 minute trailer, but also a much longer video of your whole day. And yay for gorgeous drone footage! I grew up watching these types of wedding videos as a little girl, hoping one day I might have one of my own. EZ Production really made my dream come true.

I was the Day of Coordinator for the caterer at this exclusive venue and we worked together for the wedding day. Her communication style was detailed, organized, and easy to collaborate with - she clearly has extensive experience as a wedding planner.

I would highly recommend Audrey Walsh Events & Co. to any couple planning their wedding. I look forward to working with her again!

Hey there! I'm Meghan, the founder of HairstylesCo! Want to know a little about how it all started? As a kid growing up in the 90s, barbies, Polly pocket, basically any doll that allowed you to customize the hairstyle…you name it, I had it. Picture this tiny girl holding a barbie styling head, running as fast as her 7 year old nugget legs would carry her. All to show her mom the “twist braid” hairstyle she spent hours “creating”. Guess you could say I knew my path all along…Fast forward to hair school, 15 years ago. First day-I knew I was in the right place! Now to describe my style-I'd rather give you a visual.

Meg's work speaks for itself - she is so talented at what she does! She was amazing to work with from the first time I reached out to her to the big day. I sent over some ideas prior to my hair trial and after sharing a picture of my dress, she helped me pick the perfect style to match it. It made the trail so easy and minimal changes had to be made to achieve the perfect look. On the big day, she was on time, professional, and so much fun to work with. My hair tends to get frizzy very easily when it's down (in this case half down), but she made sure it stayed looking amazing all night long, despite lots of dancing and even some rain in the evening. I cannot say enough good things about her! She's so talented and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. I highly recommend her to everyone and anyone looking for a hairstylist for their wedding!

My husband and I are so happy we chose Embark Films. We were honestly a bit hesitant at first since we didn’t know how the whole process worked, but everything turned out better than we could have imagined. From the beginning, our Client Manager guided us every step of the way, and that support made such a big difference—we never felt lost or overwhelmed. On our wedding day, we had a small change in our schedule, but our Cinematographer handled it with so much grace and professionalism. She was incredibly patient and understanding, and we truly appreciated how she never made us feel rushed or stressed. We can’t thank the Embark team enough for capturing our day so beautifully. It was such a smooth, wonderful experience from start to finish. We highly, highly recommend Embark Films to anyone looking for a team that’s talented, professional, and genuinely cares about their clients.
