Kirsten is incredible in her style, communication, and product quality. My family and I haven't stopped raving about the quick turnaround of completing our wedding photos, and how wonderfully she captured our day. I am becoming the annoying bride trying to show EVERYONE all the pictures! We truly haven't found a bad one yet! Kirsten was so flexible, balancing her photographic eye with our need for some traditional "group shots". She made our day perfect. Don't miss out on her talent!!

Jordan McGonigle Photography

  • Serves Salem, MA

Please inquire with Jordan on her website. I am an experienced freelance photographer of 14 years with a passion for capturing life’s precious moments, traveling the world and telling a story through my images. I would consider myself an innovative thinker, strong team collaborator [for all those ideas you are dying to tell me!], and I am very excited to capture your day!

Jordan 100% understood the assignment when my spouse and I told her we were having a moody, spooky wedding theme. Her endless enthusiasm carried us through the whole planning process and she did it all for a reasonable cost. She got us comfortable in front of the camera right away at our engagement shoot, and let us be ourselves. Additionally, we also had the chance to meet Ash, a videographer who is starting to work with Jordan, who provided us a 10 minute highlight reel wedding video, which also captured the day beautifully, including details the pictures didn't show. Jordan was amenable to making an edit I requested on a few of our portraits as well. Teaser pictures came back in a week and the full gallery appeared within 2 months from our wedding date--super reasonable. I was super impressed with how many details she captured too, despite only having 5 hours to work with. Working with Jordan was an absolute joy, and we recommend her highly!

We are as invested in your wedding as you are! My team and I strive to create a comfortable, trusting environment for all of our couples by connecting before we even start shooting, building a friendship where being in front of the camera is fun and easy and your vision is brought to life. In other words, I would like your experience with us to be the least stressful part of your wedding day. There will be posing and direction, but we pride ourselves on our unobtrusive, candid style. After all, you are the stars of the day, but you don’t need to feel the cameras in your face all the time.

Where to start? My husband and I hired Jess and her team for photography and videography after connecting on Instagram. I fell in love with her overall style and ability to authentically capture the day for what it is. Aside from her professional ability, Jess is such a kind person who made us feel completely comfortable being ourselves. We were able to fully take in our big day and felt like we were hanging out with friends who were taking our picture. Along with some inspo shots I provided, allowing Jess to have total creative freedom led to a fun, timeless and classic wedding album we will cherish for years to come.

We used Gary from Photography Your Way for our wedding at the Smith Barn in Peabody in July 2025. He was fantastic! Gary was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to emails. He was very reasonably priced and an engagement photo session was added to our package. Gary was very familiar with the wedding property so he knew where we would get the best pictures. He was efficient in working through all the family pictures and worked very well with his assistant to cover all angles. At the end of the night, Gary even grabbed us for some pictures with all the lights turned on outside at the barn. He did an amazing job checking to see if we got all the pictures we wanted that night. Gary had a very quick turn around with a preview of our pictures in a few days then had all the pictures sent to us in a very user friendly online link within a month. All of the pictures were stunning and we could not be happier with our choice to use Photography Your Way for our wedding!

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Salem, MA

Hi, I’m Sarah, I’ve been a wedding photographer for over 10 years, ever since I shot my first wedding at 19. Based in Haverhill, Massachusetts MA, with a studio in Newburyport MA, I specialize in capturing moody, dramatic images with warm tones and vibrant colors. I offer wedding packages for everything from intimate elopements to destination weddings, serving couples across New England and beyond.

I can’t emphasize enough how incredibly talented and wonderful to work with Sarah is! Her second photographer, Jack, was beyond fantastic, too. At our wedding, they both put us at ease having our photos taken, despite us typically not being super comfy in front of the camera. Sarah really listened to what we wanted and pivoted on the fly as needed. She shot through terrestrial rain with a smile. She was the super hero of the day because when the weather changed for the worse, she brought 15 clear umbrellas for the bridal party to use. The quality of her pics are outrageous. We didn’t want super formal pictures, and she nailed it- you can feel the love through them, which is all we wanted and more! Her pictures allow me to relive the day and the emotions of it over and over, and she delivered the sneak peaks very quickly! Beyond all this, Sarah is an absolute joy to work with and one of the kindest people. We had a vendor mishap a couple days before the wedding and reached out to her for suggestions late at night, and she immediately responded willing to help, and had a vendor friend of hers on board to help us before I woke up the next morning. She is the kind of person you want on your team for your wedding or any event! We’re looking forward to more photos with her in the future. Thank you so much, Sarah!

The engagement shoot they did with us beforehand made the day of the wedding that much better, as we were already accustomed to their style and approach.

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
Kaitlin is amazing to work with. As a photographer who has done weddings myself, I had high standards and specific requests that weeded out a lot of people during my search. Kaitlin immediately stood out to me as someone with the ability to capture the essence of a couple. As I browsed her galleries I felt like I knew the couples and their stories by the time I was done. My wife and I are very introverted, shy, and not used to being the center of attention — let alone in front of a camera. After consulting with Kaitlin it was even more clear that she was the perfect photographer for us. Kaitlin listened to our requests, asked us questions to get a better understanding of what sort of coverage we’d like, and checked in multiple times leading up to the wedding day to go over plans. On the day of, Kaitlin was incredible. She set her flash units up perfectly to give a beautiful sense of lighting to our indoor pictures. Kaitlin was quick and professional with our family formals without feeling like she was rushing anyone. We love our newlywed portraits, largely due to how natural it felt to work with her—again this was huge for us as two people who are a bit camera shy. Our reception photos are equally beautiful, she captured meaningful candid moments without feeling like she was standing between us and the moments happening around us. If you’re like my wife and me and aren’t used to being on camera, I would 100% recommend booking a practice session with Kaitlin either for engagement photos or couples’ photos. As a photographer I’m used to being behind the camera and not in front of it. She helped us feel comfortable and it also helped her see how we interact together as a couple. At no point did we feel like Kaitlin was commandeering our schedule to check off boxes on a shot-list. She was seamlessly integrated everything. Genuinely, I cannot recommend Kaitlin enough. Working with her is like having a best friend there take your wedding photos.

Working with Alexis has been such a joy! We found her over a year ago and she did our engagement photos, and immediately we vibed with her. She brings such a good yet professional energy to her time with couples, and even though we were a little awkward she reassured us the photos would be great. And they were! She is a great communicator and answered all emails and texts within a reasonable time, and was overall so easy to work with. While we haven’t gotten our full album back yet (we just got married less than a week ago), the engagement photos were incredible and the wedding sneak peeks even better. I heard so many good things from our guests on how they found her professional yet sweet and personable.

Our goal for wedding photos was to be transported back to our wedding day - more of a storytelling style than formal portraits. Felisha totally nailed it, and somehow managed to capture some extra magic in there too. Leading up to the wedding, Felisha was great at helping us feel comfortable with her, and we’re usually camera shy! We felt like we made a new friend! We weren’t planning to do a “first look”, but after how much we loved our engagement photos we decided to add that element to our wedding day as an excuse to get more time with Felisha and have some more Amazing portraits. During the wedding, Felisha and her second shooter were totally professional and unobtrusive - we didn’t notice them doing their thing, and neither did our guests. She was fun to work with, super on top of everything, and the results speak for themselves. We’re already dreaming up other life events that we might want to have professionally photographed, as an excuse to work with her again!

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

Awarded Best of Zola
Cannot say enough of the best things about Randall, and have already recommended him to wedding guests who have asked for him! We selected Randall after reviewing dozens of different photographers, we were extremely picky and looking for someone who matched our attention to detail, but had the artistic and empathetic sense to capture the best moments. The quality and style of his images stood out from the crowd of wedding photographers. We were looking for a candid-style wedding photographer with a relaxed style that’s natural and sophisticated. Randall’s vibe aligned exactly with what we were looking for. After meeting with him a couple times over the phone, it was obvious we had found a great match, both in terms of style and personality. The connection and ease we found with Randall shows through in the final product. We are generally not seeking “cheesy photo moments” and have a tendency to strike a pose when there’s a camera. Randall knew exactly how to make us feel like we were just hanging out with a friend. We also did an engagement shoot, which at first we were doubtful about. At Randall’s suggestion, we went ahead with it. I’m so glad we did, as it was useful to practice posing and working together ahead of our wedding. We have the most beautiful and unrushed photos from that exciting time right before the big day. It’s a truly unforgettable and unique time between engagement and marriage and now we have beautiful mementos of that time. On the wedding day, the pressure was on, but no pressure seemed too great for Randall! Randall was not only our photographer, but acted as our wedding day planner and manager, directing other vendors and even the venue staff itself. I do NOT envy Randall’s job. He had to deal with all our lofty expectations, direct the other vendors and venue staff, manage the bride and groom family dynamics, deal with a wedding party that was enjoying the preparation process, and found key and natural moments with all the most important people in our lives. We recommend Randall to all our friends and family and look forward to having Randall capture the most important future moments of our life together.

My fiancé and I were so nervous going into our engagement photos, but we were incredibly lucky to find Rafael. From the moment we started, he made the entire experience feel fun, comfortable, and effortless. He has such a natural way of guiding you through poses and moments that gently push you out of your comfort zone while still feeling completely authentic. When we received our photos, everyone we shared them with was absolutely blown away by how beautiful they turned out. Rafael is truly so talented. Booking him as our wedding photographer shortly after our engagement session wasn’t even a question. We wouldn’t want anyone else capturing our special day! He is incredibly accommodating, easy to work with, and genuinely listens to your ideas and vision. He made us feel supported every step of the way. We can’t recommend Rafael enough!

Hi! I’m Allison, the heart behind Allison Barrett Photography. I specialize in capturing wedding-day beauty across Newport, Rhode Island and all over New England. My approach goes beyond just taking pretty pictures—I create an experience that becomes part of the memory itself. I’m there to support you through the day, help keep things running smoothly, and capture every genuine moment, laugh, and happy tear along the way. From getting ready with your crew to those just-married golden hour portraits, I’m there with a camera in one hand and a calming presence in the other. Let’s create something beautiful together.

Allison is incredible, we highly recommend! Our engagement and wedding photos turned out flawless, and she felt like a true extension of our wedding planning team. From start to finish, she was the epitome of professionalism and her communication and organization made our wedding day flow very smoothly. She made us and our family/friends feel totally comfortable throughout hours of wedding photos and ensured that we got every shot we envisioned. We will definitely be working with Allison again!

Margaret was better than I could’ve asked! Leading up to the day she was so easy to communicate with. She created a timeline for the day and any thoughts I had she took them into account and found a way to incorporate them into the plan. Truely felt like a team because of how kind and thoughtful she is. Get to the day, she was a calming presence for sure. She showed up with a smile on her face and seamlessly cued the bridesmaids and myself throughout. She was present but didn’t hover it was the perfect balance. Along with that she was my hype girl throughout it 3 Now let’s talk about the pictures, I’m not used to getting my picture taken and feel so uncomfortable being the center of attention but she tells you every detail you need, and if something doesn’t look right she’ll correct it gracefully in the moment. I felt like I got to enjoy my day without it feeling like a photoshoot. She delivered the pictures so fast!! A couple of my bridesmaids made comments about how fast the turnaround time was…and they were breathtaking!! Better than I ever could have imagined, I can’t stop looking at them. Not a moment was missed and due to her talent we have the most perfect picture to remind us of our special day for the rest of our lives. Do yourself a favor and book with her, worth every penny.

We truly cannot say enough incredible things about Joe and Elin. From the very beginning, they were an absolute dream to work with. They were professional, organized, responsive, and so clearly passionate about what they do. I actually found Joe and Elin through a recommendation from our DJ, and then I was lucky enough to collaborate with them through my job. Getting to see them work with so many couples before my own big day was such a gift. I watched firsthand how they care for their clients, how seamlessly they run a wedding day, and how consistently they deliver beautiful, emotional galleries. By the time our wedding arrived, I already knew we were in the very best hands, and they still exceeded every expectation! Throughout the planning process, they made everything feel easy and seamless. They answered every question, helped us feel prepared, and brought such a calm, confident presence that immediately put us at ease. On the wedding day, that energy meant everything. They kept us on schedule without ever making us feel rushed and somehow managed to be everywhere at once while still being completely unobtrusive. Everyone in the wedding party absolutely LOVED them and has said over and over again what a wonderful job they did. But beyond their professionalism, what truly sets Joe and Elin apart is their heart. They genuinely cared about us, not just as clients, but as people. They captured the big, emotional moments so beautifully, but also the small, quiet in-between moments that we’ll cherish forever. Some of my favorite photos were just our real reactions and emotions in the moment, and I love that. Looking through our photos feels like reliving the entire day all over again. They went above and beyond in every way, and we are so incredibly grateful they were part of our wedding. If you’re looking for photographers who are talented, dependable, and deeply invested in telling your story... Joe and Elin are it!
