Awarded Best of Zola
Matthew was a FANTASTIC addition to our wedding vendor team. His calm, accommodating, and warm demeanor put us at ease from the very moment we met with him. He gave lovely suggestions without being pushy, and was comfortable with our specific requests, even when they were a bit outside the box. He maintained a low profile throughout our wedding day, while also checking in with us for key decision moments. Not to mention, all the photos both staged and candid came out PHENOMENAL! We’ll have to wait a while before there’s a good reason to hire him again, but when it comes we’ll do so in a heartbeat. Thank you Matthew, for everything!!!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Russell, MA

Hey! I am so glad you are here! I am a professional wedding photographer based in Boston and I LOVE MY JOB! This is my 11th year in business with over 500 weddings, elopements and engagements photographed, which means I've happily survived every timeline hiccup, weather plot twist, and rogue flower girl New England can throw at me. You may be here for my work but most of my couples hire me because of my personality; it feels like you're hanging with a longtime friend that gets things done. I discovered my love of photographing couples while I was working at Apple (super nerd over here) and it's been my passion ever since.

Erin is, without a doubt, the most incredible person and photographer we could have ever hoped to work with. From start to finish, she brought an energy and enthusiasm that lit up every moment of our wedding journey. Her attention to detail and her rare ability to capture raw emotion in her work set her apart in ways we never imagined. Every interaction with Erin felt like catching up with a lifelong friend. She approached every meeting, every question, and every detail with such genuine joy that it made the entire process truly incredible. Erin has an extraordinary gift for making you feel comfortable and at ease, and the results are nothing short of breathtaking. The photographs she delivered are timeless and beautifully capture the essence of our day. She didn't just take photos—she preserved moments, emotions, and memories that we’ll cherish forever. If you're looking for a photographer in Boston or beyond, look no further than Erin. She is truly the most genuine person we’ve ever met.

Pix byJay 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,300
  • Serves Russell, MA

Hi, my name is Juan, AKA Jay, I am a Western Massachusetts based photographer. I first began my interest in photography in grade school. While my teacher would conduct the class I would be interested in the images so I could make more of a connection. I was also dubbed the "family photographer" whenever there was a family function. I am more of a non-traditional photographer, meaning, I enjoy control candid photos vs traditional posing photos.

My husband and I got married almost 7 months ago and the pictures for both our engagement session and our wedding were amazing. We loved working with Pix by Jay and would definitely use him again.

I've had a camera in my hand as young as I can remember, took photography classes in high school and college where we still used a dark room to process and develop our images. I've spent the last 10 years building my business and I'm beyond grateful to call this my "job".

From our first meeting with Jeffrey through the completion of our wedding album, Jeffrey has been the absolute best. The photos came out so beautifully and it was exactly what we had hoped for. Jeffrey did a fantastic job and made us comfortable and happy throughout the process! 5 stars!

Novella Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Russell, MA

I have the unique position of being a social butterfly and a fly on the wall at the same time: an artist, a documentarian, and part of a team that supports the enjoyment of everyone gathered to celebrate your love. I love new places and new faces. I love seeing people have the time of their lives, and I love sneaking in to grab those moments you didn't even realize were about to happen. The result: the most natural pictures that reflect how you FELT that day. I value creativity, meaningful relationships, and having fun- so if you do too, we're a good match.

Paulette was incredible! She was easy going to work with and fully listened to everything we wanted. She even had a fan on hand to help with the heat. One of my bridesmaids pointed out - she also clearly does her homework and learned everyones names and faces from our website ahead of time which allowed her to jump right in. I only have a few photos from our sneak peak so far but if these are any indication of how great our photos will be I cannot wait.

  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Russell, MA

Hi, I'm Kim! I've been a wedding photographer since 2023 and have experience with a variety of celebrations. I love real moments, genuine connection, and the in-between magic. I focus on relaxed, natural moments so couples can stay present and enjoy their day. Based in Western Massachusetts, serving surrounding states.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! From the moment we booked with her, she was incredible. For an entire year leading up to our wedding, she checked in regularly to make sure she understood exactly what we wanted—from must-have group shots to special family photos and every little detail in between. She made the entire photography process feel effortless. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond in every possible way. She traveled to three different locations to capture all of the moments we wanted, somehow managed to organize a huge group of family members for photos without any stress, walked us through our cake cutting, and even helped get me situated before I walked down the aisle. She wasn't just our photographer—she was a calming presence, a coordinator, a cheerleader, and someone who genuinely cared about making our day perfect. Her professionalism is unmatched, but what really sets her apart is her kindness. She made everyone feel comfortable, kept us on schedule without ever making us feel rushed, and truly went the extra mile in ways we never expected. To top it all off, she gives you all of your photos, and her pricing is beyond fair for the level of service and quality you receive. You simply cannot beat the value she provides. Choosing her was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. If you're looking for someone who is talented, organized, caring, and willing to go above and beyond for her couples, stop looking—you've found the one. We will treasure these memories forever, and we are so incredibly grateful for everything she did to make our wedding day unforgettable.

Hello there! Thank you for stopping by! My name is Christina and I am a natural light, lifestyle photographer. I am so excited for this journey called photography. I take my inspiration from music, light, art and my two beautiful girls, Chloe and Mabel. Photos are so important. They are what we have after a wedding or when our children are all grown up. I like to take photos of how people interact and try to capture their personality in a photo. I would love to take part in recording memories for you and your family.

Christina is wonderful to work with. I work with many videographers/photographers in my line of work and Christina is most definitely on the top of my list of "Best to work with". I hired her for my engagement & wedding photos. Christina is professional, timely, has a great eye for photography and has a wonderful personality to go with it! Being photographed can be overwhelming but Christina completely put my husband and I at ease and made our wedding day/engagement photos even more fun and meaningful. Not only would we hire her again, but we would only hire her!

​​I am following my dream of doing something I believe in. My hobby turned into more than a hobby. I have been married for 29 years and have 2 wonderful boys. Samuel Andrew was born at 25 weeks weighing 1 pound 7 ounces and only given a 3% chance of life, he is now 19 years old, driving and getting his Associates degree in computers at HCC. Gabriel Seth was born with a "rare blood disorder" that only happens in 3% of the entire population of the world, he is now 16 years old and in High school. I am so blessed to be able to do what I do. Photography has become such an important part of my life.

Ron was great! He captured so many moments and snapped pictures that I wasn't even aware of. Our wedding photos were ready within a week. He is professional to work with and has a great personality! Highly recommend Lemelin Photography!

Hey hey, I'm Jamie. I’m here to transform the way you feel about getting your picture taken. If I had a dollar for everytime someone told me they were awkward in front of the camera, felt weird getting their picture taken, or didn’t know what face to make... I could probably retire in Hawaii. Making you feel like your true self in front of my lens, not second-guessing everything you do, not feeling self-conscious about, well...being yourself is the name of my game. Even if you feel nervous, awkward, like a straight up freak in front of the camera, I promise you will leave feeling lighter.

We absolutely loved working with Jamie! Not only is she incredibly talented, but she’s also so personable and easy to be around. She made us feel comfortable from the very beginning, and it truly shows in the photos. She has an amazing ability to capture every moment, big or small, beautifully and naturally. Honestly, by the end of the wedding, she feels like your best friend. We’re so grateful for the memories she preserved for us and couldn’t recommend her more!

Hi, I'm Danielle (but you can call me Danie) I’ll let you in on a little secret—I don’t love my wedding photos. And while I loved the day, I didn’t connect with my photographer, and it shows. That’s why, as your photographer based in Massachusetts, I prioritize getting to know you as a couple and helping you feel comfortable from the first moment we connect. Because when you feel good, your photos will shine. I'll capture the moments that matter, big and small, and I'll do it in a way that's relaxed, authentic, and true to your vision.

Awarded Best of Zola
Danielle was hands down the best vendor we had for our wedding — truly above and beyond in every way! From the moment I met her, she brought such a calming presence that instantly eased my nerves. Throughout the day, she became my go-to person for almost everything, not just photography. Whether it was helping with timing, keeping us on track, or simply offering a reassuring word, Danielle was always there! She captured every special moment with such care and creativity. The photos are absolutely stunning — timeless, emotional, and full of life. But beyond the incredible images, it was her professionalism, kindness, and calming energy that made the biggest impact. One of my favorite moments of the day was a surprise I had planned for my soon-to-be husband. We play the game “punch buggie,” so I arranged to have a vintage VW Beetle as the ultimate punch buggie surprise on our wedding day. Danielle went out of her way to help make it happen — she reached out to the owner of the car, coordinated the timing and location, and helped execute the surprise flawlessly. It was such a fun and meaningful moment, and it all went off without a hitch thanks to her! I would absolutely recommend Danielle to anyone in a heartbeat!! If we could do it all over again, we’d book her again without hesitation. She is truly a gem and made our day that much more special!

I am SO excited that you stumbled upon my work! I shoot weddings all across Florida & 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.

Being able to grab the moments for you to hold to forever, is such a rewarding humbling job for me.
