Portsmouth, NH
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style

I am SO excited that you stumbled upon my work! I shoot weddings all across New England! Capturing raw, true emotions as they happen is what I’m all about. I want to capture it all on your big day. From the moments of you putting your dress to the tears running down your face as you read your vows to each other. To the first kiss and “OMG you’re my spouse now!!” feels. To the unexpected Taco Bell run you make after the ceremony or your grandparents getting down on the dance floor. Being able to grab the moments for you to hold to forever, is such a rewarding humbling job for me.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've had the pleasure of having Gloria Bloise as my wedding photographer, and I can't recommend her enough. She was quick to reply to emails and text messages. The quality of her work is top-notch as well. I love my wedding pictures, and Gloria did a great job at understanding exactly what I wanted. She was also very patient throughout the day, which is so valuable. Gloria is truly great at what she does - she even made sure to get a picture of us eating pizza, which was a special request of mine. If you're looking for a talented and reliable wedding photographer, I highly suggest booking Gloria Bloise Photography.

Finding the perfect spot for our rehearsal dinner felt like searching for a hidden gem.

From the moment we stepped into this beautiful downtown building (conveniently close to a parking garage!), we knew it was special. But what truly made the night unforgettable was Michelle, the Function Manager. Michelle was an absolute rockstar! She helped us navigate everything with ease, from handling dietary restrictions to selecting the perfect menu options and ensuring all our needs were met. The entire function team was professional and attentive, making the whole evening flow seamlessly. And let's not forget the food! It was incredible. Our guests raved about everything they tried.

The wedding was 100 people and you always worry about portions when you order and that was never a worry once I saw the food roll in. The second event was about 30 people and again we had leftovers so you absolutely get your money’s worth. 1st class operation in communication and food delivery.

I'd say my photography style would be something along the lines of "lifestyle photography". [That means that posing you in silly ways that seem fake / awkward isn't really my jam.] I mean, unless that gets some snuggles & laughs. I'm ALLLL about that. I like to capture REAL life with REAL emotions and REAL smiles. Your session should be relaxed and fun. [All while I get some kick-ass photos!] I will most likely make a giant fool of myself at your session, so you'll feel like a professional. I sing, trip, laugh, make noises, mention inappropriate things, show my nerdiness. AKA YOU'RE GOING TO DO JUST FINE.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are looking for photographers who not only deliver high quality pictures but also help to make your day fun and enjoyable, April and Jordan are the ones for you! I can not even describe how incredible my experience with Alba Lumos was. April was able to use her own vison while also hearing what we wanted and incorporating that as well. My now husband is SOO uncomfortable being in front of a camera, and she was able to make his feel comfortable and even enjoy having his photos taken! The sneak peak pictures (attached) from the wedding are INCREDIBLE!!!! I will be doing all future photos with Alba Lumos, and highly recommend them!

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
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!

  • Serves Portsmouth, NH

My business started when I was planning my own wedding. I love flowers, but we couldn't justify spending hundreds or thousands on real flowers to throw them away in a week when we also found out we were expecting our first child at the same time. In came wood flowers! After much practice, I discovered I have an eye for colors and floral design and now 4 years and MANY weddings and THOUSANDS of home decor pieces later, this is not only my passion but it is also my full time business. No side hustle here! You will have my undivided attention. I'll make sure your floral dreams come to life in wood and the best part, they LAST FOREVER!

Awarded Best of Zola
Katie was an absolute pleasure to work with. I decided I wanted wood flowers for my wedding, and when searching for a local artist, I gravitated toward Katie's designs. I found a local bridal show so I could see her work in person, and I made the decision to work with her as soon as I saw her table of flowers from across the room! It was a one-stop-shop! She did it all: my bridal bouquet, Bridesmaid & Jr. Bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages and flowers for our wedding cake. The planning process went well. She was able to take a swatch of my bridesmaid's dresses, and matched the color perfectly. She took some suggestions on the types of flowers I wanted to include in my wedding package and then used her creative genius to create stunning bouquets. They came out EXACTLY as I had envisioned! Our guests who knew I wanted wood flowers were shocked that they were so soft and realistic looking. The airbrushed roses on our cake looked so real! The little details like the pearl bracelets on the corsages, and the satin wrapped stems on the bridesmaid bouquets made everything look elegant and polished. I highly recommend Blue Dahlia Designs if you are thinking about using wood flowers in your wedding. I planned my wedding during the pandemic, and we had many challenges. Katie was so wonderful to work with and I am so happy with my flowers. I am STILL enjoying them, and we just celebrated our first anniversary.
