Tristen Bianca Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (12 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Whately, MA

Hi, I’m Tristen — a New England wedding photographer and filmmaker who knows that being in front of a camera can feel a little intimidating, and that your wedding day should never feel like a staged production. My couples often tell me their biggest hope is to stay present, soak in every moment, and not worry about what they look like or what they’re supposed to be doing. That’s where I come in. With calm guidance and a documentary approach, I create space for you to relax, be yourselves, and fully experience the day while I preserve it all with care.

Tristen was an absolute dream to work with! She is super detail oriented and incredibly kind. She had a detailed questionnaire and met with us a few weeks before the wedding to get to know us and go over the details. She helped us with our cake cutting when the day-of coordinator left us hanging. And she even laid down her own jacket for me to sit on to prevent my dress from getting dirty when we were taking pictures. When we sat down at our table for dinner we saw she had put a developed picture of our first kiss on it! My husband and I are both pretty introverted and camera shy but she made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire day. The photos are so beautiful and I couldn't be happier. I can't recommend her enough!

She captured special details, guest candids, and a set of lovely portraits of our bridal parties.

  • Serves Whately, MA

Western MA based photojournalist and wedding photographer. Prior to coming home to Western Mass in 2010, I lived in Washington, DC. I spent 6 years as a member of the White House press corps . I was lucky enough to document a lot of historic events, including the election and inauguration of President Obama. My work has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Boston Globe.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Matthew to capture my daughter's wedding was one of the single best decisions made for that day. He is thoughtful throughout the process, taking time to meet with my daughter and her fiancé and have them really think about what was important to them to capture during their special day, putting together a timeline to make the most of our time with Matthew, and then just seamlessly blending in with the day and capturing some of the most stunning photos. We were blown away! We had seen enough of his work to know we'd be pleased, but he exceeded all of our expectations. His level of professionalism is extraordinary.

Christina Rosario Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Whately, MA

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.

Hiring Christina as our photographer was easily the best decision we made in the wedding planning process. From the beginning, friends advised us to be picky with our choice of photographer because aside from each other, this was the person we’d spend the most time with on our wedding day. We knew right away Christina would be the right choice. She has such a calm energy while being totally on top of everything, she’s funny, and she’s really resourceful. We also felt super safe and comfortable as a queer couple working with Christina. Of course, she also takes the most stunning photos! We chose to hire her because of her ability to really capture people’s essence in photos, and she completely knocked it out of the park. None of our photos came out looking generic or stiff - looking back on them now, we can feel the energy of the day in each of the pictures. She has a genuine magic for bringing people’s personality through in photos, especially the candid ones. She also has a particular talent for getting amazing pictures of young kids - she took a few stunning portraits of our two year old niece, who probably was not standing still for a single second that day! She also took the time to chat with us about our own relationship with ourselves in photos, and that really helped me feel more comfortable with the whole process. We’re totally blown away by the gallery we received, and if we ever needed a professional photographer again, we would absolutely make the same choice to hire Christina. We highly recommend everyone else to do the same!

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Whately, 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 is an incredible photographer! She captured so many great moments so beautifully! We are obsessed with our photos, and Paulette was also a joy to work with. She’s very friendly, relaxed, and great with communication!

​​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!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process.

With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

We absolutely loved working with OLAS! Our team (photo & video) was so adaptable to the venue and had great ideas for shots and making the most of the location. I loved all of the candids taken of the guests which is something I wanted during the ceremony and reception. We were able to see parts of the night that we would have missed. The planning team was also great- Hannah was very helpful in giving me an example timeline ahead of our call. We’re so pleased with our choice to select OLAS!

In the 20 years that I've been photographing professionally, I’ve honed my skill of knowing when to step in and make things happen, and when to step back and simply *allow* things to happen. Documenting the REAL emotion of the day is how we capture those picture-perfect moments. They happen organically, not by force, and I promise you: we're not going to miss ANY of them. = )

Christopher was SO much fun to work with throughout the entire process. From the engagement photos, the rehearsal dinner to the wedding itself, Christopher was there finding the best shots. His demeanor and communication style put us at ease and actually made the process fun! The quality (and quantity!) of the team's work was impressive and they managed to capture the most memorable and funny moments that we still get to relive to this day. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

We were blown away by our wedding pictures and video! The video made several people tear up and perfectly captured the day (and was not corny). The pictures are amazing and bring back all the wonderful memories from the day. Lola and Austin are very talented and had several calls with us to get all the details down. We will cherish the pictures and video forever.

My name is Ali Cushing; a NY-based photographer working in a blended documentary and editorial approach, emphasized with a cinematic method, and a personalized, true to life editing style. I am honored to be entrusted with depicting genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizing precious memories. I see beauty in the subtle details as much as the wide, epic scene, while I see glory in the mundane in-between moments as much as the heart thudding highs. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Awarded Best of Zola
I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Ali! She reached out to me on Zola and I am so glad she did. I was impressed with her portfolio and I really loved seeing how she would capture little moments in the weddings she had done. We set up a video call before booking and we clicked. She is very calm and helped with my pre-wedding nerves. She worked with us on a payment plan and she was always very quick to respond to any of my questions. She really listened to what we wanted. She got to the venue early to scout out different shots and came to check in with me a couple of times before we even began taking photos, which I did not expect but was very sweet and considerate of her. When we were taking photos, she really helped to guide the more “posed” photos but she also captured a lot of beautiful candid moments. We had so many guests come up to us and compliment her and that was before we even got the photos back. She sent us our sneak peeks the next day and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. She captured so many beautiful moments and her style is exactly what we wanted. Nothing felt “overly edited” just perfectly genuine. I cannot recommend Ali enough. I cannot wait to see the full gallery of photos because I know they will be nothing short of perfect.
