Hi, I’m Alex! If you are looking for a creative, passionate and professional wedding photographer with an easy to vibe with personality, then I’m your guy! I’m here to make your big day something to remember for a lifetime. Whether you are having a large scale black tux event or a small intimate garden wedding, I am here to bring your vision to life. I have been a professional wedding photographer for over 6 years now and truly enjoy what I do. When I’m not taking photos, I am probably spending time with my wife and dog, creating some art or watching a good movie!

Alex was incredible to work with right from the start. He made us feel comfortable and excited about our elopement day. The photos he took are beautiful, dreamy and so creative — perfectly captures not just how everything looked, but exactly how it felt. We encountered a few curveballs on our day, and he took it all in stride with us, and patiently kept everything flowing. It is such a gift to be able to have our incredible photos to look back on and relive the joy of the day. We can’t recommend him enough. If you want a photographer who’s not just incredibly talented but also kind, flexible, and a joy to be around, he’s it. We’ll treasure our photos forever!

Communication with VMG Weddings was super relaxed and easy, they understood everything I wanted. We were blessed to have both Matt & Des capture our special night. The work they produced was incredible - they were so detail-oriented and worked tirelessly to bring my wedding day dreams to reality. They incorporated the beautiful cemetery on the property into my photos because they could tell it was something I would love.

Caroline Captures Media 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Portland, ME
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,750

We’re Caroline and Nermin, the husband-and-wife team behind Caroline Captures Media. Our story began in Bar Harbor, where we first met while working along the coast. It didn’t take long for Maine’s landscapes, communities, and coastal beauty to become a place we deeply connected with and eventually came to call home. Nermin grew up in Montenegro along the Adriatic Sea, so Maine’s rugged shoreline and maritime culture felt immediately familiar. Our shared connection to coastal places and the outdoors has shaped not only our lives, but also the way we see and document weddings.

We were so happy with Caroline Captures Media from start to finish. Their communication was quick and professional, making the whole process easy and stress-free. On our wedding day, they went above and beyond to help us get the best shots and made sure we felt comfortable in front of the camera. They were willing to capture any extra photos we wanted without hesitation. The quality of their work is incredible and the value we got was honestly amazing. We would not hesitate to recommend Caroline Captures Media to any couple looking for a photographer.

I’m a storyteller. That’s what I’m here to do - document the story of one of your greatest celebrations. My work is heavily focused on the authentic, unplanned moments. My approach is observational and real, creating images that are genuine representations of you, those you love, and the space and moments you share. I create true-to-life images that will bring you back to some of your sweetest, most treasured moments for years to come. If you’re looking for a light-hearted, boisterous creative to work with, you’ve found her. I'm people-centric which means that, I'm focusing on you, your guests, and the real moments you're sharing together.

Awarded Best of Zola
I knew we needed to book Kaitlin from the second I found her Zola profile, but it was completely solidified by our meet and greet meeting. Kaitlin is exactly as described. So personal, completely herself, open and transparent, I could go on and on. One of the biggest things that sold us with Kaitlin (besides her work) was the fact that she gave us advice on what to look for/questions to ask with other photography vendors while we were on our hunt. We had our engagement photos in October in Boothbay Harbor and we are actually located in Western Mass. I had ideas in my head about what would work and Kaitlin made the drive to check out the locations and ensure they actually would. One of my locations wasn't the best lighting wise and she gave multiple other options to get similar looks. We actually ended up doing some downtown photos which are some of my favorites (which is a little a lie because I am obsessed with all of them). I read in multiple of Kaitlin's reviews that she makes awkward people comfortable behind the camera and I am here to say it is true. I was so stressed going into things, worried my hair looked bad, we wouldn't get *the* shot, we would look weird, etc. Kaitlin immediately asked me what my worries were and I felt so at ease. Working with Kaitlin felt like working with with a lifelong friend who really has it all together and is such a professional. I truly know that our wedding day is going to be that much better knowing she is going to be there documenting it all.

  • Serves Portland, ME

I’m Ned— a soulful creative, hopeless romantic & southern Maine based photographer I believe photography is more than just preserving a moment — it's about honoring the depth, emotion, and story that lives within it. I photograph weddings of all kinds—from elegant coastal celebrations to quiet, intimate elopements—with an eye for emotion, beauty, and honest storytelling. My approach is calm, documentary, and grounded in years of experience capturing the real moments that matter. Whether you’re planning a refined gathering or a deeply personal ceremony, I’m here to create images that feel true, timeless, and full of heart.

Ned was an absolute delight to work with. He is warm, friendly, and very professional. He even quickly won over our young child and put all three of us at ease during our family portrait session. We’re excited to see Ned again for our wedding photography!! We recommend him wholeheartedly to others looking for an artist with a calming presence and the ability to capture both his subjects and Maine’s dramatic landscape.

Maine Wedding + Lifestyle Photographer serving couples + families with an experience that makes them leave feeling embraced with love. Providing both Photo + Video to New England + Abroad. At Tay Sikes Photo, we make you feel extra loved by those around you, and extra gorgeous in every photo we capture.

I can’t say enough good things about Taylor! Not only is she my wonderful friend, but I have been lucky enough to be on the receiving end of her talent, as she’s taken beautiful and I mean BEAUTIFUL photos of me throughout my entire pregnancy. As a photographer myself this is no easy task, but Taylor has a gift for setting people at ease, making them feel beautiful and creating truly unique shots. Not only have I been the subject of her work, but I’ve also been able to work with her on weddings and I can truly say there is no one I would rather work with. Taylor is so good at catching those beautiful moments as they unfold (the first kiss, the first look) but also the inbetween moments (aunt Mary hugging your cousin at cocktail hour and your little niece break dancing on the dance floor). Her editing is timeless and who she is as a person just makes you want to go back for every important life event. I highly recommend Taylor for all your life moments!

Tide and True Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,900
  • Serves Portland, ME

I am a wedding photographer. AND I'm a wedding photographer with a altruistic approach. Which mean I bring my whole self to the table, and care about you and your vision. I want to get to know you then partner with you to create. In the past I've worked for a florist, I'm a veteran, I keep bees, run a small farm, briefly ran a salon; I bring every experience from my life to the table for your wedding. My bag has everything from hair ties to hammers in it!

I went into wedding planning knowing that, aside from my venue, my photographer was going to be the most important vendor decision for me. The way I see it, after the day is done and the bouquets have wilted, the only thing I have left to remember the magic of the day is photos. I wanted them to be great and I wanted a photographer who would add to the day instead of just photograph it. Tim did that. I looked through maybe 30 different photographers' galleries and met with maybe 10 before finding Tim and knew from our first conversation that I'd found our photographer. And I am so very pleased that Tim was part of our day. Every step of the way, Tim was wonderful to work with. He answered every question I had and shared ideas leading up to the day. He was super pleasant, knowledgeable, and obviously devoted to his craft. He was communicative and helpful in thinking about parts of the day that I initially hadn't even considered.  On the actual wedding day, Tim was legitimately a huge part of keeping things on track and fun. Multiple people in our wedding party stopped me throughout the day to tell me how awesome and efficient he was and he honestly kept me laughing through most of the early part of the day. I can honestly say I wasn't too stressed that morning and Tim helped create that atmosphere for me and my bridal party. Even my matron of honor, who is also a wedding photographer herself, applauded my decision in working with Tim and spoke about how quick, calm, helpful and thoughtful he was. And my sister thinks he's basically magic because he pulled a makeup light out of nowhere when she wanted to check the makeup she'd done for me and handed another girl tiny scissors when she needed to trim hanger straps off her dress.  The sneak peeks I've gotten from our gallery have me so excited to see everything Tim captured and I know I'm going to be looking back on his photos for years to come. They'll help me relive one of the happiest days of my life and I'm so grateful for that. Were I planning this wedding again, I'd hire Tim again in a heartbeat. For the photos and for the unique energy he brought for the day, he was perfect for us!

Jack went above and beyond. He met with us before the wedding to fine tune what we wanted and get to know us. He came to the rehearsal to figure out lighting and meet the “important people” haha. He also checked out our venue for reception before wedding and met our wedding coordinator! We had a cocktail hour while we did pictures so he was able to hire a second shooter as well if you needed such. The electricity went out at the church right before the ceremony and he was a pro- pictures turned out great! Really felt like he cared so much and put so much into our big day and really captured the best moments and had great ideas when doing our couples pictures after ceremony. The wedding is gone before you know it but the pictures last forever! THANK YOU JACK!!

Hey there, I’m Holly! I’m a wedding and engagement photographer based in Roanoke, VA, and I’m all about capturing love stories in the most authentic and heartfelt way possible. My photography style is raw, emotional, timeless, and fun. Whether I’m photographing a tender moment between a couple or the spontaneous laughter during a celebration, I strive to capture the genuine connection and joy shared on your big day. There’s nothing more rewarding for me than freezing those fleeting moments so you can relive them for years to come. If you’re looking for a photographer who can capture your day as it unfolds, I’d love to chat!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I originally chose Holly for my photographer because we had a very specific theme for our wedding (Destiny the video game). It must have also been Destiny that she played the game and was familiar with the theme. Also, she was amazingly flexible and willing to work with our budget. Her correspondence with me was always quick and prompt. Even when it came to getting my professional pictures and sneak peaks all back, I was told it would be up to 2 months for return, but she had them back in only a week or two's time. Unfortunately, (as these things sometimes happen) Holly was not able to actually come do our photos due to getting extremely sick (which no one can help), so we had to have a stand in photographer named Justin. I know we (including herself) were all bummed she could not be there considering we were all excited and familiar with the theme. Despite not having Holly, Justin was still very nice to work with and did an amazing job. I did notice that the best pictures (of course) were the ones he had time to actually position and pose us for. I think my biggest regret was I wish I had had more time and funds to pay for more time for him to pose us and take these more less candid photos. I was sad to find that we missed out on getting individual photos of my daughters and all four of them on their own. Also there were no photos of my husband with his second oldest daughter which really upset her... But again, I don't blame the photographer for this. It really was chalked up to a lack of time. Also, one of my daughters changed into more comfortable clothes during dinner so that took away from us being able to get the nice pictures I had wanted. So I can't emphasize enough that I don't blame the photographers for this at all... It was just one of my biggest regrets on my part of the night. I again, wish I had built more time and been able to contribute more money to more pictures that could be done in this manner. I definitely recommend this team. They are so nice and do their best to check off all of the boxes that you want. They work with you and are quick and efficient with what they do.

Felisha is one of the most kind, thoughtful, and insightful photographers who you could possibly hope to work with on your big day. In our first phone call with Felisha, it was clear that she was looking for a connection with her potential clients; she wasn’t trying to sell us her portfolio, and she wasn’t trying to gauge our budget. If you’re looking for a storyteller and someone who wants to build a meaningful connection with their clients, look no further! We wanted a partner in our photographer, someone who could look beyond the standard wedding portraits and find those special, candid moments that we would be missing among all the distractions of the day – and Felisha delivered. From start to finish, we felt like Felisha had our backs and was looking out for our best interests. She listened to us and gave us whatever it was needed on our big day at that moment – whether it was relief from the stresses of the wedding day timeline or a break from the business of our reception. When it came time to review the gallery, we were blown away by the details she captured. It was incredibly special not only to see the beauty captured in the moments, but the feeling we got in our hearts as we relived our wedding weekend. It’s a feeling we hope to hold on to for as long as we can, and Felisha truly helped to make our vision a reality!

Ultimately, that's what it's all about, serving my clients and creating an amazing experience.

Randall was AMAZING to work with! I'm sure as a wedding photographer you need to deal with a lot of unique personalities and unexpected situations. Well I can tell you that Randall is an expert in both of these skills! Like every family, we had our share of characters at the wedding. Unlike most, we had to reschedule (twice), move venues, AND had an additional small ceremony (outside in unseasonable snow) in the height of COVID (Oct 2020). Randall was accommodating, kind, and creative. I'd give him more stars if I could!!

Awarded Best of Zola
We seriously couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer for our September 27, 2025 wedding. Elizabeth captured our autumn wedding perfectly. From the colors of the nature around us to the laid-back rustic vibes to all the little special moments we didn’t even realize were happening. It is so true what people say when they tell you that your wedding day is a whirlwind and you are pulled in so many directions. It is hard to retain all the memories yourselves, so having a professional photographer is so important. It is absolutely incredible just how much she was able to capture as one person. On top of that, she went way above and beyond by helping us set up décor and just jumping in wherever she was needed. She was also such a calming presence on the day, and helped keep everything feeling relaxed and fun. For me as a woman with some self-esteem challenges, she captured the things I love about myself and made me appreciate things I may have not loved as much before. I feel like I am more confident as a result which is such a huge gift. TLDR: Elizabeth is incredibly talented, kind, and truly cares about her couples. She definitely found her calling as a wedding photographer. We’re so grateful for her and would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!

Choosing who to hire to capture one of the most important days of your life is not an easy decision. We searched for months and finally stumbled upon Jocelyn Nicole Photography. We reviewed Jocelyn's work and instantly felt at peace, knowing she was the photographer for us. Jocelyn was so easy to work with. She listened to our vision and desires and fully understood the mission. Jocelyn captured each part of the day so beautifully and blended in so well that if we didn't have her photos as evidence, we wouldn't have even known she was there. She captured every little detail and special moment, and it was so nice being able to be fully present during the wedding knowing Jocelyn was photographing all of the memories we'd want to look back on for years to come. We were extremely shocked with how quickly Jocelyn delivered our Sneak Preview photos and the entire wedding gallery. The photos turned out so beautifully, and we cannot express how thankful we are to have hired Jocelyn to capture our wedding. Thank you!!!!

I’m Sam, a wedding photographer known for thoughtful details, images that feel effortless, and a calm presence. I’ve been photographing weddings across the U.S. since 2011. Most couples tell me they’re not comfortable in front of the camera, and that’s completely normal. I’m experienced at guiding people just enough to feel at ease. Outside of weddings, I’m usually at home with my husband and our three kids, which has taught me a lot about patience, flexibility, and staying calm when plans inevitably change. Skills that turn out to be very useful on a wedding day.

I highly recommend Samantha Lee Photography for any of your future photography needs! She made me feel confident!

I'm a 25-year-old photographer with a passion for capturing life's most memorable moments. I'm a wife, avid crafter, and proud dog-mom. With over 7 years of experience behind the lens, I feel truly honored to document the best moments of my clients' lives, allowing them to look back on these cherished memories for years to come. I had the privilege of studying photography at NHIA, where I was accepted with a scholarship. During my three years there, I immersed myself in the world of film and digital photography, working both in the studio and in nature.

My fiance and I had the opportunity to do our engagement shoot with Julia and we could not be happier with the experience and the results! Before the shoot, we were able to communicate easily with her over text and send ideas to her that she did her best to incorporate into the shoot. I was initially nervous because it was the first time we were taking official photos for the wedding and being in front of the camera is not something I’m very used to. From the minute we met up for the shoot, Julia’s presence and energy immediately put me at ease. She is bubbly, funny and fantastic at giving direction without actually posing you so it just felt like we were on a date and having fun. The pictures she captured truly portray the nature of our relationship as a couple and were exactly what we were envisioning! I cannot recommend her services enough, it was an absolute pleasure to work with her and I look forward to printing the pictures for our home!

Every weekend you'll find me oohing over a wedding dress, and holding my breath for the first moment the groom sees the bride. The wedding style I like the most is candid, but I definitely don't mind posing a nervous couple, or arranging that perfect artistic shot before the light changes. I am patient, calm, and encouraging... I think I get along with everyone... I'm like the nerdy extra bridesmaid with a really killer camera.

Sarah was an amazing photographer. She was friendly and excited for us all day. She did a good job of capturing intimate moments without invading our personal space. Sarah made sure to photograph everything we asked for, as well as to suggest other great shots that we are so glad to have now. She was getting ready to leave at the end of the night and noticed a special spot under a tree with twinkle lights. She came back into the reception to see if we wanted to get pictures there, and those are some of our favorites! Her photos look just like how we experienced the day, not overly edited. I know some couples wait weeks, if not months, to get their full gallery back. Sarah sent us the link to the gallery within 72 hours! We are so glad to have gotten to work with her.

After I got engaged, I started my wedding planning right away since we decided to get married in 3 months. As soon as I found Cinthia on Instagram I loved her work and sensibility. I contacted her and she was so responsive. I shared with her that I was planning an intimate wedding by myself and right away I felt confident that she was the right professional to have on my big day. She started sharing her experience with me, giving me tips, she was very proactive in looking into possible locations for pictures near the church, sunset time on my wedding date. She went above and beyond to help me and guide me in the right direction. Throughout the process, she kept the communication going, she was very organized, a true professional. Our engagement session was so great. The wedding day went well and on time. Cinthia was so pleasant to be around and made sure to capture our special day with so much love and dedication. My friends and family also loved her work, and since then they have had her on their celebrations as well. My husband and I couldn’t be happier with our pictures. Cinthia also created a perfect wedding album for us, she put so much time and effort in every detail. We highly recommend her and wish her so much success. She’s a blessing in our lives. Thank you very much Cinthia! Bruna & Vinicius Nascimento
