My husband and I absolutely adore Kristen. Trying to pick a photographer was an overwhelming decision for us due to the fact that there are so many different styles and we weren’t sure what we were looking for. But once we talked to Kristen on the phone we knew she was the perfect fit for us. Her energy over the phone was so infectious and made us excited to get in front of her camera. Our first time meeting her was at our engagement shoot. We decided to go with a sunrise beach session and Kristen showed up with energy and ready to capture our love. She was down to do any pose and was always hyping us up on how perfect our pictures were coming out. We had so much fun and were just able to relax and be ourselves. This all translated into the beautiful pictures we received from Kristen. From the time of our engagement shoot (July 2023) to our wedding (September 2024) Kristen was always checking in to see how we were doing and how excited she was to shoot our big day. It was so awesome to have constant check ins with her!! The day of our wedding (9/21/24) was so amazing thanks to Kristen. She was with us for majority of the day and always made sure to hype us all up and to make sure I knew I could take breaks from pictures at any time. All of our guests absolutely loved her as much as my husband and I do. 10/10 would recommend her for any photography services. She is amazing to work with, takes beautiful pictures, and is professional but also knows how to have a good time.

Ryan, Jenn and their team were so great to work with. They were so down to earth, while ensuring to always stay professional. I had a great time throughout the process, and they made sure to always make us feel like our opinions mattered. My wife and I did extensive research before picking a photo/video company as we are in a same sex relationship. We wanted to make sure we were supported like any other couple. Whenever we seen how inclusive and diverse the Willow Co. was, we knew they were the ones. Their work exudes love and peace, and those two qualities were super important to us. Cheers to many more years of business to a great company! Sending our love to you all.

When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me.

Hi there! My name is Madison and I am a wedding photographer based in the beautiful seaside town of Newport, Rhode Island. Although I call Newport home, I provide my services to couples throughout the greater New England area and am always willing to travel worldwide for my clients' special days. I have always been passionate about capturing life's most special moments through my camera lens, and there's nothing quite like the magic of a wedding day. I consider it an honor and privilege to document the love story of each unique couple I work with.

Awarded Best of Zola
We truly can’t say enough about Maddie and the incredible experience we had working with her. From the very beginning, it was clear how kind, creative, and deeply passionate she is about photography. Maddie went above and beyond—traveling from Rhode Island to Upstate New York for our wedding, and photographing us beforehand in Rhode Island, where she brought us to stunning, thoughtfully chosen locations. On our wedding day, Maddie captured everything with an artistic, intuitive eye. She noticed and preserved the quiet, meaningful details of our farm venue—those small, fleeting moments we would have missed in the rush of the day. Because of her, we now have timeless images that bring us right back to the feeling of being there. One of our absolute favorite memories (and the photos everyone raves about) is the sunset session in a wide open field while our guest we're eating their dinner. With the soft dreamlike tones—she created pure magic, effortlessly. Maddie just knew what to capture and how to tell our story without needing a word of direction. We are endlessly grateful for Maddie’s talent, care, and heart. Her photos are a gift we’ll cherish for a lifetime.

Based in Rhode Island and serving all of New England. Love By The Ocean Co. is a wedding photography business that is dedicated to capturing your most cherished memories in breathtaking detail, creating timeless images to be treasured for a lifetime. As a dedicated wedding photography business, I go above and beyond to fully cater to each couple, delivering a personalized experience that exceeds expectations. From the quiet, intimate moments to the grand celebrations, we document your wedding day with unmatched quality and care.

If you are here reading reviews trying to decide on a photographer for your engagement shoot, wedding, or truly any special moment in your life, this is the only review you need. From the moment we met Nick, his kindness, compassion, and vision were unmatched. He immediately made me feel comfortable and confident. Within minutes, he asked what my favorite side was (ladies, if you know, you know!) and made sure we looked amazing from every angle. He guided us through poses seamlessly, always pointing out little details - a leg bend here, a hand placement there - so we never felt awkward or unsure. His professionalism and genuine care for his couples shine through in every shot. We received our photos so quickly, and I was absolutely blown away. We had shared a Pinterest board for inspiration, and Nick not only brought it to life but elevated it beyond anything I could have imagined. Honestly, our gallery looks like it belongs in a magazine .. I will never get over it. When I opened our gallery, I was speechless. My whole family cried. Every single photo was breathtaking. Nick is a master in every setting - as the sun shifted, he instinctively knew how to capture the most flattering, magical lighting. It’s been a week, and we still can’t choose just three favorites to enlarge for our home because every photo feels like a masterpiece. I also need to mention that my fiancé owns a wedding videography company, so the bar for our photographer was set very high. He now recommends Nick to every couple he works with, because he knows no one does it better - and after seeing our photos, I completely agree. I don’t usually leave reviews, but Nick’s talent and kindness deserve to be recognized. These were only our engagement photos, and I already can’t wait to see the magic he creates on our wedding day in 2027. So to all the brides and couples out there: do yourself the biggest favor and book Love By the Ocean Photography. Nick is truly the best of the best, and you’ll be over the moon that you did. With light, and SO much truth, Lexi R.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Lynne. Not only were her photos SO beautiful and perfect, but she was a joy to work with . She was organized, professional, and so kind. We hadn’t planned on taking engagement photos but used it as an opportunity to meet her and get comfortable in front of the camera. Our engagement photos were so fun! Lynne made us laugh and brought out such a natural joy in each of the photos. The communication leading up to the wedding was clear and organized. She shared a timeline and checklist, met with us via zoom, and checked in to ensure everyone was on the same page. It brought a lot of ease knowing that she was organized and ready to go. On the wedding day, Lynne was incredible. She led with direction but was kind and flexible. She was professional and fun and added so much to our day. Our families mentioned after the fact how nice and sweet she was. Everyone felt comfortable and had so much fun. We allocated about an hour for first look, family, and couples pictures before the ceremony. It ran smoothly and never felt rushed or chaotic (nor did it feel repetitive or like it dragged on). And of course, the photos themselves are stunning. She captured the mood perfectly. She was SO quick to share sneak peaks and kept them coming. We haven’t even seen the full package and I am obsessed already. I couldn’t wait to write a review. From our festive, fall engagement photos to our moody, dark winter wedding, Lynne matched the vibe to a tee. I would recommend her for any and all of your photo needs!

My passion for photography stems from my love of travel and capturing life's precious moments. There's nothing more fulfilling than preserving the most beautiful days of your life. Photos are a return ticket to moments gone. My goal is to create lasting memories that inspire and evoke emotions. I believe my purpose is the impact my work has on others. This is my 15th year, and it gets better with each passing year.

I was blown away when I opened the sneak peek photos. I could not stop looking at them. Not only were her photography skills amazing, she was responsive, supportive and available to help all throughout the planning process and on our big day. We had some hiccups that day and I think I would have never managed to pull it off without her. She was definitely my rock. It was stressful due to a malfunction that caused some damage. She didn't even flinch. She came up with a plan on the spot and moved us forward. Thank goodness for her amazing photos!

I shot my first wedding 8 years ago and never looked back. I am passionate about capturing the most intimate and special day you will share. With over 150 weddings under my belt, I bring not only top-notch professionalism but a wide array of experience as a wedding photographer.

Colton is hands down the best photographer and we couldn't be luckier to have had him capture our wedding! We cannot recommend him enough! From wedding planning to the big day, Colton was a joy to work with—fantastic communication, so personable, professional, and incredibly talented. Our family and bridal party kept complimenting how friendly and amazing he was. He remembered everyone's names, which made the experience even more personalized. He made sure to capture everything on our shot list and more. We were amazed at how quickly he delivered our sneak peek photos (literally 1.5 hours after the wedding ended!!), and they are absolutely stunning!! We are so excited to see the full album! Colton truly made all of our photo dreams come true by capturing our day so beautifully. Highly, highly recommend booking Colton!!

Hi friends! My name is Jess. I never know what to write in these bios but here goes …. I’m a caffeine addict (coffee and Dr Pepper), wife to my high school sweetheart, mom of three active kids, complete artsy nerd, avid fan of Marvel/Disney, legos and puzzles and lastly, a lover of nature and of human connection. Capturing details and moments that you don’t get to stop and relish in the day of your wedding, but will have for the rest of your life, it’s what I love.

If I could give Jess 100 stars I would! Jess was amazing to work with all around from her attitude to her creativity, it was great to still be able to act yourself while being photographed and not stiff and posed the entire time. Our wedding pictures came out over the top amazing and there is not one bad picture! We will be working with Jess in the future for any photography we may need!

Tom at OGM Photography was the perfect wedding photographer for our special day. From the moment we first spoke, we could tell he was patient, experienced, and had a chill, easygoing demeanor that put us at ease. His work is truly superb - artful, tasteful, and thoughtful. He captured all the special moments as a thoughtful observer, but also kindly guided us and our guests to achieve optimal pictures. Tom was not just a wedding photographer, but a great photographer with an artful lens who was able to capture moments within the backdrop without sacrificing the scene. Throughout the day, he was professional, punctual, and surpassed our expectations in every way. We couldn't be happier with the beautiful photos that will help us remember our wedding day forever.

I want to do cool things, with good people. Create connections. Become fast friends. Share my love for the outdoors. Find incredible light. Laugh our asses off. Have a conversation about whatever. Not talk about politics. Find out how you met. Swear a little bit. Get lost for a while. Talk about music. Throw some high fives. Arm wrestle. Probably bring up my cats. Ask you why you don't have cats. Make you believe that bigfoot is real. Bring some thunder. Ride the lightning. Take some photos. Looking forward to all of that.

We had an amazing experience working with Joe from Joseph Laurin Photography for our wedding. His communication style was simple and straightforward, always keeping us updated on timelines without overcomplicating details. Joe's work is stunning - he kept the mood light and fun, making us and our wedding party laugh while shooting. He was particularly ygreat with the kids in our families. His images felt natural, like he captured authentic moments. Joe tirelessly ran around our venue on the big day, never missing a moment. He kept us relaxed and comfortable. The photos perfectly reflect the joy of our special day. We look forward to using Joe in the future to document our family memories for years to come. Highly recommend!!
