Hey hey 👋, I’m LaDonna. Wedding photographer & videographer with a passion for celebrating the love stories of couples from all walks of life. Growing up in the suburbs of Boston and attending undergrad in Connecticut, I’m a true New England gal. Winter holds a special place in my heart, as I embrace the beauty and charm of every location I photograph. I’m always delighted to travel wherever your love story takes you—even an Aspen winter elopement. That would honestly make my heart smile! 😊 My mission: create timeless, heirloom-quality artwork that reflects the unique connection & individuality of each couple I have the honor to serve.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

I've been practicing both photography and videography for going on 10 years now and from the moment I picked up a camera I absolutely fell in love with it.

Not everyone in life is able to realize their passion but I am thankful that I have found mine and I wouldn't trade it for the world.

We had inclement weather on our wedding day and they were on top of any changes that had to be made and communicated with everyone at our venue. Their communication was clear and professional.

Where do I even begin with this review?! Jennifer has been an absolute gift to work with throughout our wedding planning process, and now that we just go our sneak peeks back, we know we made the right choice with her! We did not use Jennifer for our engagement pictures, so I knew I was taking a risk when hiring her as our wedding day photographer. I was confident with what I saw on social media and our email correspondence ensured me that she would make a great fit for us. She was communicative along the entire way and was intentional when asking for our shot list. On the day of, it was very clear that she was very purposeful in capturing all of my preferred shots and made a dedicated effort to be present for each moment of the day. Jennifer was very professional and both her and her second shooter, Alex, found fun and creative ways to capture unique imagery from our ceremony and reception. She was attentive to our needs as a couple, made lots of great photo recommendations, and did not push us to do any pictures/poses we weren't into. Jennifer knew we wanted to be a part of cocktail hour and was happy to accommodate all of our formal pictures before the ceremony. She was discreet during the ceremony and captured lots of wonderful group shots at the reception. A week before the event she was happy to add on a few additional hours from our original contract. I truly cannot recommend her enough!

We’re a collaborative team of filmmakers and photographers who live for making amazing things for the world’s most friggin’ amazing couples.

Hiring Paperboys was the best decision we had made in our process of wedding planning. If you're looking for a wedding videographer and photographer, look no further, THESE ARE YOUR GUYS! My wife and I had Paperboys photograph and film our wedding and they went above and beyond our requests and expectations from start to finish.

From our first meeting to loading up decor at the end of the wedding day, she was amazing, enthusiastic, and professional. She went above and beyond in dealing with vendors and took so much off my plate. She also saved my mental health in the months/weeks leading up to the wedding, not bothered by my many questions and random thoughts and happily answered them all. She took my random thoughts and my very rough vision for decor and ran with it. I was stunned and amazed when I saw how everything turned out. She also was amazing in dealing with an unhappy venue staff member at the end of the wedding, ensuring our evening was perfect. So much so that we didn’t realize anything had happened until the next day. I cannot recommend Ricki and her team enough!!

I am not an affectionate person. I was not looking forward to being put on display in front of 200 people to get married. But I did know that K would help me get through it. K was our officiant for our Wedding in 2019 and I couldn’t have asked for a better person. As a family friend, I knew K could give us the ceremony we wanted, and boy did she deliver. We wanted spiritual but not religious, we wanted special but not cheesy, and most of all we wanted someone calm, cool, and collected like K. From the blessings before dinner to the entire ceremony she made everyone feel welcome and loved. I honestly think I looked more at K than my now husband during the ceremony because I was so nervous. K has a genuine presence that makes everyone feel included, important, and at ease. She has a calmness about her that is infectious and makes you want to be a better person. I can’t recommend K’s services enough! No matter your event, whether it be a celebration or a time of need, K will provide that beacon of light to help you get through it.

My hobbies are painting, sawing and printing, and my biggest passion are flower designs and expressions. I gained experience and education working for florist and event companies in the area for couple of years and fell in love with working on tying dreams, sentiments and spaces with flowers, into a perfect personal and intimate creation.

I was about to propose to my girlfriend. I was so nervous about planning everything into the smallest details. I found Jelena to make me a bouquet of 100 roses. Not only that she made the best bouquet that I had ever seen, but she went way further by helping me with some new ideas of what to do, and she even managed to deliver the bouquet to the restaurant in the middle of the dinner without anyone noticing, so I was able to pick it up as soon as my girlfriend said “Yes!” 
I'm never going to forget what Jelena did for me in those days and I’m never going to a different florist for any future occasions! Thank you, Jelena! You are the best!

Awarded Best of Zola
Mel is truly a one-of-a-kind photographer. I’m an over planning, anxious person and bride. My photos were my top priority of my wedding day and it was extremely important to me that they were what I wanted. I had searched for what seemed like forever and stumbled across Farfalla and immediately knew it was the style I had been searching for. The contrast makes the photos intimate without comprising them and being too dark. And there is no give in color, it’s beautifully there. I call it intimately colorful, which is what my day is all about. I knew our engagement photos would be good but they surpassed anything I imagined. They were STUNNING. My fiancé is not a picture person but we both felt so comfortable within 10 minutes of the shoot. We laughed, joked, and had fun the whole time, photographer included! She just has the most fun personality that would be needed on your wedding day and from day 1 with all my questions, Mel responded within a timely manner and eased all my worries. Up to this point, I’ve texted her several times regarding the photos or canvas I’ve ordered and she’s always just so sweet and excited! It always makes you feel special by the end of a conversation. All I have to say is, you get what you pay for. Quality wedding pictures are an investment, but it’s a lifetime investment. And you want to make sure you’re investing in the right person. Mel is that person, and you will have no regrets.

The quality of their work was flawless - the photos were absolutely beautiful and creatively captured all the special moments of our day. We couldn't be happier with the value Prest1ge Photography provided and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

Jon did an amazing job photographing our proposal and wedding photos. He was quick with communication prior to the event, he was extremely fast with getting us our final photos and even went above and beyond to print us a few shots immediately following the wedding! He also had his photobooth set up for the reception and it was an absolute hit with the guests. We got many compliments by guests on how professional Jon was and the amazing quality of the final photos.
