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.

Hii! I'm Nicole and I work full-time as a nurse and pursued my passion for photography in 2017 when I would attend my boyfriend (now husband's) motocross races all over New England. I quickly began capturing family and friends and learned that I loved capturing moments in life big and small! I love capturing people in love and enjoy being able to make others feel beautiful and confident through my photos.

We’re so glad we chose Nicole as our wedding photographer. She was professional, calm, and made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. She captured every important moment from the big highlights to the small, candid ones with such a natural and romantic style. Nicole was organized, easy to work with, and blended in seamlessly throughout the day. Our sneak peeks are already incredible, and we can’t wait to see the rest. We’ll cherish these photos forever. Highly recommend!

I am a teal obsessed, chocoholic, wife & fur mama who can’t get enough of capturing love stories!

It's been 8 years and I never looked back! My goal is to not only capture bright, bold, natural images but truly share in your love story!

Mariel was beyond exceptional! My husband and I met with Mariel 4 days before our wedding for our engagement shoot and was so impressed with her work, we knew she would be a blast to work with for our special day! Her response time with emails/texts was quick and always answered all of our questions. We would absolutely have Mariel shoot pictures for us in the future!

Though You'll Hardly Notice Me When It Counts, I Will Have A Front Row Seat For The Happiest And Most Memorable Moments Of Your Life.

I have been lucky to work with Jessica several times. As a fellow artist that loves the play of light and shade, the sunlight streaming through the trees, the true colors of nature, the way the breeze blows a lock of hair as a groom kisses his bride, I love to see her photography. As a makeup artist I’m also interested in seeing the photos of the faces of the bridal party so I can make sure my craft translates well in pictures, and appreciate when a photographer shares them with me. I still remember a photo from a wedding that was simply the couple seated at their sweetheart table at dinner and photographed from behind through a rustic grey barn door; you couldn’t see their faces but it was so visually beautiful with the grey rough wood juxtaposed with the back of the elegant lace gown as they were holding hands during the reception I still haven’t forgotten it. It was a moment no one else would ever have seen and perhaps the couple may have other forgotten, except Jessica captured that little moment in time. I feel that a couple will treasure the beautiful naturally posed photos she does, but will also especially remember their joy of their wedding day with a photo like that. Jessica is personable, kind, punctual and helps the couples to enjoy the photo taking session. I can’t wait to work with her again because she is so fun, you don’t have to wait a long time for the edited photos, and her work is gorgeous!

My husband Andrew and I know that we are our best and most authentic selves when we’re supported and intentional with our time and each other - especially since the arrival of our daughter. Marriage teaches you a lot of things, and I truly believe that my marriage has taught me how to be a better friend, communicator, and business owner. I get excited about connecting with people, building friendships with my couples, and sharing their stories through imagery.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve worked with many different photographers, and in my opinion Cora is one of the best photographers in CT. Her work is exquisite and authentic. Cora and her assistant Jess (also incredible) captured intricate details, memorable moments, and unpredicted candids. My favorite candids of all was one of me dancing with my 98-year-old grandmother. Aside from her impeccable photography skills, Cora is a wonderful person. COVID-19 created a few plot twists for our July 2020 wedding. We had been planning our CT wedding from Colorado (where we reside) and had to jump every hurtle imaginable; state mandates, new venue restrictions, timeline adjustments, COVID tests. Despite it all, Cora was supportive, helpful, and accommodating. She genuinely takes an interest in getting to know her couples and has your best interest at heart. Our wedding day turned out to be better than anything we could have planned and I am so glad I hire Cora as our wedding photographer. I adore Cora and the friendship we built through wedding planning. We plan to hire her for future family formals as our family grows!

Hey there, I’m Erika! What started as a love for photographing nature turned into a passion for capturing real connection. Now, I focus on weddings and love stories of all kinds. My style is bright, vibrant, and full of natural light. I want you to feel relaxed and yourself in front of the camera so your photos feel like you- whether you're throwing a big celebration or keeping it simple and sweet. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who’ll capture the real, honest moments, I’d love to chat.

Bright Lens Photography was the perfect choice for our engagement photography. From the start, Erika's communication was professional, prompt, and transparent. She made us feel at ease during our engagement photo shoot, guiding us on poses and adjusting my hair as needed. The final photos were fantastic, with beautiful editing and a wide variety of shots. Bright Lens provided us with a complete digital album at a very reasonable price, and the turnaround time was a huge bonus compared to some other photographers we considered. We couldn't be happier with the quality of Erika's work and the way she contributed to making this special time so memorable.

Photography, to me, isn’t about stiff poses or rushing through a timeline. It’s about creating space for you to breathe, laugh, tear up, and fully live your day. I care deeply about making you feel comfortable and confident in front of my camera, because when you feel at ease, your images feel natural, elevated, and completely authentic. This isn’t just a job for me — it’s storytelling, legacy, and the privilege of preserving moments that will matter long after the cake is gone and the music fades.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Nicole and her work! Professional and beyond my expectations! She captures whatever it is she’s photographing perfectly. She’s creative and takes control in large group settings, helping everyone know where they need to be. She was a blast to work with and just has a great calm energy. I couldn’t imagine anyone better capturing our wedding day. Hire her!!

We had an intimate wedding in our townhouse with only close friends and family, and I can’t express how grateful we are for our photographer!

Hey, I'm Mary! It's nice to meet you. What you must know: (1) I'm a nerd. If you want to talk video games, LOTR or Doctor Who, we HAVE to sit down for a bourbon or a coffee. (2) Yes, I will be out on that dance floor with you snapping away while joining in on the fun. And (3), while I'm a photographer first, supporting you during the planning process feels crucial to me - from building a timeline to having your back any way I can. Woman/LGBTQIA+ Owned

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Mary for our engagement photos and were absolutely thrilled with the results. She made us feel at ease right away, and we ended up with so many photos that looked (and felt!) so comfortable and so "us." There were no moments that felt awkward or posed, and she took the time to make sure we had captured many memories we'll cherish for a lifetime. We ended up getting married abroad, but if we had stayed local we would have been thrilled to work with Mary again for the big day itself. We can't recommend her highly enough!

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
I knew we needed to book Kaitlin from the second I found her Zola profile, but it was completely solidified by our meet and greet meeting. Kaitlin is exactly as described. So personal, completely herself, open and transparent, I could go on and on. One of the biggest things that sold us with Kaitlin (besides her work) was the fact that she gave us advice on what to look for/questions to ask with other photography vendors while we were on our hunt. We had our engagement photos in October in Boothbay Harbor and we are actually located in Western Mass. I had ideas in my head about what would work and Kaitlin made the drive to check out the locations and ensure they actually would. One of my locations wasn't the best lighting wise and she gave multiple other options to get similar looks. We actually ended up doing some downtown photos which are some of my favorites (which is a little a lie because I am obsessed with all of them). I read in multiple of Kaitlin's reviews that she makes awkward people comfortable behind the camera and I am here to say it is true. I was so stressed going into things, worried my hair looked bad, we wouldn't get *the* shot, we would look weird, etc. Kaitlin immediately asked me what my worries were and I felt so at ease. Working with Kaitlin felt like working with with a lifelong friend who really has it all together and is such a professional. I truly know that our wedding day is going to be that much better knowing she is going to be there documenting it all.

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.

Kelly was super responsive which made communication easy right off the bat! We had an outdoor ceremony planned and really wanted sunset pictures but the weather had other plans. She worked wonderfully around all the changes and remained optimistic. We were lucky enough to have fog creep up that helped make for some awesome pics! Our sneak peaks came out beautifully so far and we can’t wait to see the rest! This was our first time being photographed professionally and Kelly made it painless.

I seriously can’t put into words how amazing she was and cannot recommend her enough. She was great to have around on our wedding day and I am so happy with our photos. The groomsmen didn't have their act together, even though she provides a detailed schedule, and she was totally chill about it and was like no biggie I'll be back in 30. My fiancé commented on how awesome she was (didn't comment on any other vendors) and one of his groomsmen did too (see first pic). This was before we even saw the pics and they turned out better than I could have imagined. At one point I told her I was done taking pics I wanted to go talked to people and dance, so was a little worried if we got enough shots, but was blown away with the results. I also told her I didn't care that much about getting ready pics but wanted a lot of guest candids and she delivered. She also got way more getting ready pics than I even expected. We didn't want to spend money on a second photographer and she was fine with that and got all the pics we wanted on her own. She truly listened to what we wanted and was incredible at communication and organization. On top of that, she is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, and truly a calming presence during all of the chaos on wedding day. I feel sooo lucky we found her.

Joe Dolen Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the very first phone call, Joe and his team were enthusiastic, professional, and incredibly easy to communicate with. They made sure to get all the important shots, including some beautiful candid moments during the sunset that perfectly captured the romance of our special day. The photos we received were truly incredible - they managed to beautifully document all the joy and love of our wedding in a way that exceeded our expectations. We are thrilled with the value and quality of Joe Dolen Photography's work, and would highly recommend them to any couple planning their big day.

Hi! My name is Courtney. I am the owner and lead shooter of Courtney Cohen Photography. I am based out of Barrington, RI, and love to spend time with my husband, toddler, and dog by the beaches of Rhode Island. I have a very candid approach when it comes to photography. I want to capture the raw emotion that you will remember for years and years to come. I shoot mainly outdoors with natural light but am trained with OCF (off-camera flash) for any low light or indoor locations. I strive to work with my clients not only to give them amazing pictures but also to make their lives as easy as possible. I hope that you reach out and we can chat!

Just WOW!! If you’re looking for a highly skilled, super fun/bubbly/upbeat photographer for your wedding, look no further, Courtney is IT (and worth every penny)!! Throughout the entire process she was so easy to communicate with and really makes an effort to get to know the bride and groom. From the second she arrived at our venue she felt like a best friend/family that we’ve known forever and was just taking our wedding photos for us. We had so much fun with her throughout the day and she went above and beyond to get the best shots for us and the shots/styles we knew we wanted from the get go. I have worked with other photographers in the past and Courtney is by the best, most skilled, and people oriented photographer I’ve ever been privileged to work with/hire. I highly highly recommend Courtney; you will not be disappointed and she will make your day all that extra special!

I am also a dog mom and I love animals in general, my puppy means the world to me! I am a dedicated, passionate, fun and caring person and I put love in everything I do. I can't wait to work with you!

Jenni with J Maurer Photography was a dream to work with for our wedding photography. Her communication throughout the planning process was consistently kind, fast, and professional, which we really appreciated during a hectic wedding season. On our big day, Jenni rolled with the punches when bad weather forced us to change plans last minute. She kept us calm with her reassuring demeanor, all while snapping gorgeous photos that she delivered many of the very next day. We were thrilled to relive moments from our wedding as soon as possible thanks to Jenni's quick turnaround. Overall, Jenni is a consummate professional who clearly loves capturing special moments with her lens. Her beautiful, adaptive work shined through despite the weather challenges. We'd enthusiastically recommend J Maurer Photography for any couple seeking stunning, timely wedding photos.
