Johanna Sorrell Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Portland, ME

I’ve been making pictures since I was 12. My parents gave me an ancient 35mm Konica Autoreflex camera, told me to get after it, and the rest, as they say, is history. My role as a photographer is to capture the rare, vulnerable, epic, extraordinary, and wonderfully ordinary moments of life, as well as the beautiful details in between. I strive to make images that come from the heart and will tell your story for years to come. Also, I might cry at your wedding. It happens.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Johanna Sorrell was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. We were so lucky to be connected with Jo so early on in our planning process. The best advice we got was to pick a photographer we felt connected to since we would be spending by far the most amount of time with them on our wedding day. I didn't want my wedding to feel like a photoshoot. Once the ceremony was over I just wanted to enjoy myself. She really honored that request. Jo was so invested in our wedding. From our very first interaction, Johanna was efficient, attentive, and timely in communication, often providing long and thoughtful responses to our many questions. We chatted on the phone, had zoom calls, and met in person prior to the big day. She really wanted to make sure she understood our vision. We were lucky enough to get to do our engagement photos last summer with Jo. When I say she was lying in the middle of the street while we were driving at her on a vespa.. I mean it. See photos below. She will do anything for the shot. We wanted our photos to be extremely vibrant which as you can tell she clearly captured! She can also really organize the obnoxious family members and tell them where and how to be. Her work was incredibly thorough, and she was able to capture all the special moments of our day quickly and seamlessly. We got a sneak peak back within days of the wedding! We got all the photos back within weeks which shocked us! She is such a hard worker. Johanna truly made us feel so calm and seen on our wedding day - we now consider her a dear friend. The value and quality of her services far exceeded our expectations, and we cannot recommend her highly enough.”

Jenna Cavanaugh Photography

Portland, ME
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,000

Natural, documentary, photojournalistic. Real, raw, candid. We’re not going for any stiff prom poses here. I like to capture the day as it is and to document it as it unfolds. I never want to force anything, but I step in and direct where needed. Being in front of the camera isn’t my favorite thing either. I will be here to guide you and prompt you the whole way, I promise.

“I cannot recommend Jenna enough! In addition to the amazing engagement and wedding photographs, she was so professional, organized, and lovely to work with from day one. My husband and I were so grateful for her regular check ins, thoughtful questions, and offers of guidance as we got closer to our day. My husband and I (and our families) are uncomfortable having our pictures taken - but Jenna was so skilled at subtly coaching and making everyone feel comfortable. We were blown away by both our engagement and wedding photos. Jenna’s portfolio is stunning. However, she captured our day in a way that felt unique to us. We loved too many of our wedding photos to frame and so asked her to put together an album. The album was so thoughtfully put together - a beautiful reminder of our day. Thank you, Jenna for everything!”

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,600

Our first kiss was on the beach, under a star-filled sky, on my favorite island, only home to shells, bioluminescent creatures, and wild horses. Soon after, as two very young humans (21 and 23), we were married. As newlyweds we set off on an adventure, kayaking from Maine to Key West. On that trip, we realized how much we valued spending all our time together and being in charge of our schedule. This business is how we live out that dream.

“Bethany and Dan Photography were the perfect photographers for our wedding day. From our first interaction, their communication was clear, consistent, and friendly, putting us at ease immediately. The quality of their work was truly stunning - they captured the most interesting and intimate moments throughout the day in a way that felt like they were part of the family. Bethany and Dan made us and all of our guests feel so comfortable, allowing us to feel in control of our special day. We cannot recommend Bethany and Dan Photography more highly - they were an absolute pleasure to work with and the photos they delivered are ones we will cherish forever.”

  • Photojournalistic style

Hey! I'm Aimee, a film photographer based in Portland, Maine. I work primarily with film as a way of slowing down and paying attention. Film shapes my approach — intuitive and intentional — creating space for imperfection, inspiration and play. My work is grounded in documentation rather than direction. I follow what’s unfolding, offering gentle guidance only when needed, allowing the day to flow naturally.

“We were looking for a more photojournalistic, slice-of-life style photographer with a bit of a vintage flair for our Maine Camp Wedding, Aimee was exactly what we were looking for! Aimee captured the joy and beauty of our day, the gorgeous scenery, and many artful shots of all of the details that made our wedding special. Aimee was organized, communicated well and thoroughly both in the lead up to the wedding and day-of. Aimee was so sweet and made us feel very comfortable, letting us lead the way, but gently guiding us when needed. If you are looking for a more relaxed, artistic and organic wedding photography experience, look no further!”

I believe pictures shouldn’t be painful. I want you to feel special, happy, gorgeous, and well-cared-for throughout your photography adventure, but most of all I want you to have fun. A relaxed couple makes an even more beautiful couple on that most important of days, and I will go above and beyond for my couples to ensure that is exactly what happens. I’m not just a photographer on your wedding day: I’m a friend.

“I've never been comfortable in front of a camera and our engagement shoot was a big point of anxiety for me. Within 5 minutes, we were laughing and completely relaxed. It resulted in beautiful photos. Between that time and the wedding, we had developed such a friendship that she was more of a guest than a vendor. Her creativity and eye were just incredible. Our photos and photo book are amazing. We'd hire her again and again and again.”

Katie Arnold Photography

One of my favorite parts about this job is watching confidence grow right before the lens. When couples go from, “we’re going to be hard to photograph, we’re so awkward.” to “ no way! That’s us?” my heart could explode every time! Because what is on my camera is exactly what I see in you. It isn’t “you’re so talented!” or “that’s an amazing camera!” no, no. It’s simply you with the one you feel most comfortable with and who fills your heart and soul as no one or thing can. That my friend is genuine love in its most simplistic and powerful form. And it’s what I capture best. :)

“After doing much research, I was blessed to stumble across Katie on Instagram. I immediately fell in love with her work; her photos are rarely staged, all authentic, “in the moment” candid shots. On top of her amazing work she is the most kind hearted, down the earth person. Going to our engagement session, we didn’t know what to expect. We immediately felt comfortable with Katie and never felt awkward. We had to postpone due to COVID and Katie was so easy and accommodating! Our wedding photos are absolutely stunning, there truly isn’t a bad shot! I recommend Katie to every one and will continue to go to her in the future for any of my photography needs :)”

Nostalgia drove me into photography at an early age - and lead me into my studies of photojournalism. We all innately know when we're at a critical juncture in our lives. For me, being able to authentically capture, to preserve those moments in a photograph is such a privilege. I know how much it means to me to be able to look back and say 'this is how things actually happened.' There is beauty in those truths. The kind of folks I work with share that appreciation.

He also got the pictures back to us incredibly fast. We truly cannot recommend Corey (Revolution Summer Photography) enough!”

They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day.

My fiancé and I live in the Carolinas, and despite the three-hour time difference, we always felt in the loop, heard, and understood. From the first email to the wedding day, she was amazing. Now let's get to the important stuff... the wedding day. She was incredible. She got all the shots I wanted and then some. We were able to get all the photos done in a timely manner so that we could get back to the party and enjoy ourselves. Brayley captured both staged photos and the best candids. We cannot wait to get the rest of our album back. If you're thinking about hiring Brayley... DO IT!”

Your wedding is not a performance. It's the way you look at each other when no one's watching. Your hand finding theirs without thinking. My couples care more about what’s real than what looks good on a grid. They want gorgeous photos but also want them to mean something. The couples I work with have depth. Their stories have weight. They want someone behind the lens who sees them. Not just how they look, but who they are. Presence over performance. That's the closest I can get to naming it.

“From the moment we met Danielle, we knew we were in the best hands. She has an incredible eye for framing the most beautiful shots, capturing moments in a way that feels both artistic and deeply personal. But what truly sets her apart is her ability to improvise—whether it was shifting plans on the fly, working with unexpected lighting, or finding the perfect backdrop in an instant, she handled everything with such ease and creativity. Beyond her talent, she is simply a wonderful person. She made us feel so comfortable, like we were with a close longtime friend. She handled wedding day stress with grace, never letting any hiccups take away from the joy of the moment. Her calm, positive energy was exactly what we needed. If you are looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly skilled but also kind, adaptable, and truly invested in making your wedding memories as beautiful as the day itself, look no further. We are beyond grateful to Danielle for capturing our day so perfectly - we think the pictures speak for themselves”

I'm Marc Sadowski, a New England wedding photographer with 20+ years of experience capturing weddings across New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, and beyond. My approach is candid and documentary — I stay back, watch, and wait for the moments that happen when you forget the camera is there. I learned photography as a photojournalist, where you get one shot or you miss it forever. That instinct drives everything I do on your wedding day.

“We had an absolutely incredible experience with Marc! When we were interested in booking him, he recommended we have a call first to discuss our vision for our wedding and the logistics we knew of so far. After we booked, we had another call the month of the wedding to go over all of our details. He left no question unanswered and was able to make sure we incorporated everything we wanted for photos into our wedding. Day of our wedding, Marc could not have done a better job capturing our first look, family photos, portraits, ceremony, and reception. He led us through a series of poses that felt natural and had us both at ease the entire time. We relied on his expertise for backgrounds and overall vision of the photos, and he exceeded our expectations. He was great with our friends and families, and captured any photos throughout the night that we requested. He went above and beyond getting the photos back to us in a timely manner. I can’t recommend enough hiring Marc for your wedding or event!”
