EVANS STUDIO 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Oakland, RI

I'm a Boston based wedding photographer and filmmaker with over a decade of experience. Evans Studio it's not just about getting a nice shot - it's about telling a story, it's about diving into the heart of your big day and becoming part of the action. We are a mix of elegant, editorial style as well as documentary and authentic.

We first chatted with Max over Facetime and based on his cool, confident personality, we knew he would be able to do an outstanding job with our Boston Desi-American fusion wedding. His style of photography and editing stood out from the scores of photographers we were picking from on IG. Max worked closely with me (the bride) to coordinate themes, vibes, outfits, and location for our engagement photoshoot. While we were a whole hour late to our shoot because of Boston traffic, he was extremely kind and accommodating, making the most out of the situation and still delivering amazing photos. When I received the photos from him, my husband and I were blown away – he did some stunning portraits of myself, as well as gorgeous shots of us as a couple. We then coordinated wedding details – we opted for a video and photo package. Max’s team was so professional and knew where to situate themselves throughout the day once I gave them my schedule for the day – from Bridal gowngetting readyjewlery details, First Look, Bridal party portraits, Family portraits, solos, ceremony shots, cocktail hour, all the way to reception and EVERYTHING in between. The day was full of surprises and delays (as are most wedding days with lots of family and moving parts) but Max and his team DID NOT MISS A BEAT. They managed my bridal groom party with ease, and rallied everyone necessary for all the requested photos. Do I need to mention the beautiful final shots? We will forever cherish these photos and video. Thanks so much Evans Studio!

Lorna Stell Photo 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Oakland, RI

I’m a Virginia transplant who makes her home north of Boston shooting micro-weddings and elopements. I’m obsessed with the diversity and energy of the city, but also with how easy it is to escape to nature in New England. As an introvert, I definitely need both! I’m married to a handsome fellow creative (of the wordsmithing and storytelling variety) and we love our homebody life together. I’m a photographer because I think people are fascinating. Because memories are fleeting. Because we all need some beauty around us to help us remember how incredibly blessed we are to be alive.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was searching for a photographer in the Boston area to capture the moment I propose to my girlfriend when we visited Boston. I was referred to Lorna's website and I was very impressed with her portfolio/website. I reached out and received a quick response! We set up a zoom call to get to know each other. Lorna was very nice and professional. She offered great advice and really wants to get to know you and your partner. I was very impressed with Lorna overall and 10/10 would recommend.

Jenn is the best!! I love her style and she is the best communicator. She really cares about her clients. Almost a year and a half after our wedding, I finally got around to printing our wedding pictures and realized I saved all the pictures I loved in web sized format. The pictures weren’t a good resolution for printing and Jenn reopened our site so that I could download the pictures I wanted. She’s truly the best.

When it comes to live music, live sound and a reception that will be a party to remember, they are the only call you're going to have to make.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring CC was one of the best wedding decisions we made! From the beginning, Dan was super responsive and clear about the band’s style, availability and price. After booking, Dan was great about answering questions and keeping in touch about song requests, timeline and other important wedding items. If you’re looking for a band that you would want to dance and sing along with at a fun bar or party, on top of being extremely talented musicians, these are your people. They also understand weddings and are willing to take on fun challenges. They took the time to successfully pull off many requests such as: - My requests and timing for the ceremony music which included acoustic renditions of Harvest Moon, With a Little Help from my Friends and Here, There, and Everywhere. They also take care of the sound systems and mic set up for the ceremony. - An amazing live rendition of Touch Me by The Doors for our reception entrance - Another amazing live rendition of Come Sail Away by Styx for our first dance which transitioned into open dance floor for all guests - Helping me pull off a surprise outfit change/re entrance into the party which included allowing me to join the band to sing Just A Girl by No Doubt. My guests had nothing but great things to say about CC and applauded their crowd work and musical talent. I also highly recommend paying to add on the sax player. They were AMAZING and added the perfect touch. Overall, Champagne Casanova is completely worth it for your wedding. I would hire them again in a heartbeat!!

Without Fernie, we aren't sure our wedding would have happened! We hired Fernie as our Day of Coordinator, and met with her several times via zoom to go over details. She reviewed our materials and created a timeline for our day. She asked questions that made us think about details we might have overlooked. She did a site visit with us, ran our rehearsal, and was with us every step of the way on our day. Our wedding did not go as plan, and on the fly we were able to create a back up plan. Fernie contacted all of our vendors, and we all managed to arrive at the location around the same time. Over all, we were lucky to have her on our team!

Hi there! I'm Nia, a wedding and elopement photographer based in Boston, MA but obsessed with traveling. I love the days when I stumble upon a new landscape, learn something new from a stranger or aimlessly drive until I end up somewhere decent. This is why I love storytelling.

Documenting your day in an honest, soulful way that shows who you are is what I strive for.

Nia is also such a fun and genuine human! We loved spending time with her through our meetings up until the big day and our engagement pictures and just made everything perfect. When we received the final album, we couldn't find one picture we didn't love, and loved how she was able to capture little details that even we missed!

Awarded Best of Zola
Sarah was a clear standout from all the planners we met. My initial impression of her was that she was warm, kind, and professional. She didn’t expect us to have every detail figured out and was incredibly welcoming from our very first conversation. We hired Sarah as a full-time planner, and she was always available to text, email, or chat about anything and everything. I still wanted some independence when it came to design choices, and she was very respectful of that. She is extremely organized and always came prepared—asking the best questions during vendor meetings. She also served as the main point of contact for all our vendors, which took a huge weight off our shoulders. Since we’re currently out of state but wanted our wedding in Massachusetts, Sarah went above and beyond for us. She visited all the venues we were interested in and sent us videos so we could make informed decisions from afar. I met Sarah in person for the first time on our wedding day, and immediately noticed how sweet and endearing she truly is. She exudes grace and came fully prepared with everything we could possibly need. Even though she had never worked with our venue before and the weather was unpredictable, she remained calm and composed throughout. Since we didn’t do a rehearsal, the bridal party and I felt a bit lost—like herding blind sheep! But Sarah handled it like a pro. She was always exactly where we needed her to be. Her team member Nicole was also incredible—my dress straps broke from dancing, and Nicole stitched them back good as new. I truly could not have done this without Sarah. This is your sign: book her now!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Amy Melody, our wedding month-of-coordinator! From the moment we met her, Amy impressed us with her professionalism and enthusiastic demeanor. She was incredibly organized and experienced, which was evident in every aspect of her work. Amy was an excellent collaborator as we planned our wedding from scratch. During our virtual calls, Amy took the time to listen to all of our preferences, needs, and concerns during the planning process. Her excitement about our event was contagious!We had a site visit to our venue (Fort Getty in Jamestown, RI) and Amy arrived early to scout the location. When we arrived, she had a ton of great ideas for the event layout and had a back up plan ready for all of our concerns. Leading up to our big day, Amy created a detailed timeline that was shared seamlessly with all of our vendors, ensuring that everyone was on the same page. This meticulous planning gave us so much confidence that everything would run smoothly on our big day. On the day of the wedding, Amy and her assistant went above and beyond. They arrived extra early to set up our flower arrangement centerpieces and all of our decor, making sure everything looked perfect. When an unexpected torrential downpour began, Amy and her assistant remained remarkably calm and upbeat. Although we were in an open-air pavilion, Amy and her assistant handled the situation with grace and helped all of our vendors stay on schedule and remain dry. Amy had a bag of supplies a la Mary Poppins with zip ties, table weights, towels, umbrellas, and all of the other items that we could never have thought to bring, but made an incredible difference in the outcome of the day. During the night, Amy made sure the event ran smoothly. She seamlessly organized a buffet line, coordinated with our MC to make sure the speeches were on time, and ensured that the gifts and cards were secured before the end of the night. Amy was also accommodating to our families, ensuring that they were comfortable and had everything they needed. Thanks to Amy's dedication and expertise, our wedding day was absolutely magical. We are so grateful for her hard work and would highly recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking to hire a wedding coordinator!

Jenn was absolutely incredible to work with. I felt SO lucky when I came across her work on social media - which was genuinely more beautiful than photographers charging 2x or more. I probably inquired with 10 photographers beforehand, but the moment I found Jenn, knew we'd choose her for her beautiful work. We loved our engagement photos, and she gave us (stunning) sneak peek wedding photos the day after our wedding! From her "detail" shots, teaching us how to pose (thanks!), scoping out the best spots for beautiful shots, creating a wedding day photography timeline for us - she was so professional, creative, and easy to communicate with. Also as a side note, she is an engineer and I don't know how she is blessed in equal measure with both left-brain precision and right-brain creativity. She also has some very cool options, like Super8 film, polaroids, etc. that we opted to add on - her work is timeless and beautiful and I can't recommend her highly enough. Jenn - thank you so much for capturing these moments for us to look back on!
