I'm a Boston based wedding photographer and filmmaker with over a decade of experience. Evans Studio it's not just about getting a nice shot - it's about telling a story, it's about diving into the heart of your big day and becoming part of the action. We are a mix of elegant, editorial style as well as documentary and authentic.

We first chatted with Max over Facetime and based on his cool, confident personality, we knew he would be able to do an outstanding job with our Boston Desi-American fusion wedding. His style of photography and editing stood out from the scores of photographers we were picking from on IG. Max worked closely with me (the bride) to coordinate themes, vibes, outfits, and location for our engagement photoshoot. While we were a whole hour late to our shoot because of Boston traffic, he was extremely kind and accommodating, making the most out of the situation and still delivering amazing photos. When I received the photos from him, my husband and I were blown away – he did some stunning portraits of myself, as well as gorgeous shots of us as a couple. We then coordinated wedding details – we opted for a video and photo package. Max’s team was so professional and knew where to situate themselves throughout the day once I gave them my schedule for the day – from Bridal gowngetting readyjewlery details, First Look, Bridal party portraits, Family portraits, solos, ceremony shots, cocktail hour, all the way to reception and EVERYTHING in between. The day was full of surprises and delays (as are most wedding days with lots of family and moving parts) but Max and his team DID NOT MISS A BEAT. They managed my bridal groom party with ease, and rallied everyone necessary for all the requested photos. Do I need to mention the beautiful final shots? We will forever cherish these photos and video. Thanks so much Evans Studio!

Awarded Best of Zola
Steve was enthusiastic, kind, creative, and flexible with day of changes to our schedule of events. I hate having my photo taken and he put me at ease immediately. I love the photos he took of the ceremony and the family, but my absolute favorite were the candid photos from the dance floor. He was always present, but never obvious, and that allowed for some really joyful and organic shots. The meetings with Steve were helpful in communicating our vision and needs, and he was so responsive! From the beginning of our time working together on engagement photos all the way through to the end of the wedding and sharing of the album, he was professional, fun, and efficient. I can not recommend him highly enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
We are not joking when we say that we hired Saja from Mawaddah productions at 8:30 am on our wedding day after realizing that we almost made one of the biggest mistakes by not having a videographer. And this was definitely the BEST decision we made. We were amazed that Saja not only managed to travel two hours from Boston to Alstead New Hampshire with a last minute notice for the job, but also exceeded our expectations by capturing all these priceless and unforgettable moments with little to no preparation other than a timeline flyer a few hours beforehand. The cinematography is insane: she films so beautifully and candidly, and her attention to details is unparalleled. Through her art and vision, she was able to translate this day which needless to say, went by overwhelmingly fast, into such a beautiful beautiful endless everlasting memory that we can now forever replay. We ABSOLUTELY ADOREDDDD the teaser, the short wedding film and the feature film. We shared it with our entire families and friends and they are completely in love. The short wedding film is on constant repeat. We could not thank her and recommend her enough for her incredible work and talent.

Awarded Best of Zola
Atlantic Shake was hands down the best band I've ever experienced at a wedding -- and we still have so many of our guests telling us the same thing 2 weeks after the fact. Our dance floor was absolutely electric, and the crowd did not want to leave even after Atlantic Shake's encore performance. Not only did they *make* the party at our reception (and took care of the dance floor lighting!), but they also provided live music for our ceremony and cocktail hour. And the band managers themselves, Nick and Rebecca, were hugely helpful in the entire planning process -- We left every call more energized and excited for our wedding than when we'd started (which was definitely not a typical experience for vendor calls leading up to the wedding!). Could not recommend them more highly!!

JNG Event Consulting is a floral and event design firm that services a select number of weddings, and events each year. We are as selective with our clients as they are with their vendors. Nearly all of our clients work with a full-service event planner, are referred to us by a venue coordinator, to a client who has worked with us. ​Often times we are asked by prospective clients if they need to be working with an event planner, or a venue coordinator, in order to engage our design services, and the answer is, “Yes.” We find that the process of designing an event is much more seamless when an event planner, or coordinator, is present.

Jimmy literally made all my dreams come true. His bubbly sweet personality put me at such ease and I knew I was truly taken care of with Jimmy. He completely understood my vision and made it into a reality. From flowers, to table settings and everything in between, Jimmy and his team had it covered.

I found Drake on Instagram when I was looking for Long Beach wedding photographers. His feed caught my eye because of all the vibrancy of the colors in his pictures. I love bright, bold colors in pictures and struggled to find a photographer with the same style so I was really happy that I found him! He was very responsive from the start and gave off such a positive, joyous vibe that I knew I needed on our special day. Drake (along with his assistant Danya) was so fun to work with and made it so much easier and comfortable for us and our wedding party to do all the wedding shoots.

I’ve been planning and coordinating events for over 7 years. My wedding coordination journey began when my former boss asked if I could coordinate her wedding, having seen my skills in planning and coordinating events for work. I said YES and fell in love with being a part of someone’s wedding day. It brings me joy and excitement doing the behind-the-scenes work that helps make your vision come to life.

Danielle was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Danielle was professional, nice and made me feel comfortable about handling our wedding. She was highly organized and communicative the entire time and made sure the whole day ran smoothly. She handled all venue decor set up exactly as I imagined and even ran home to get her steamer to make sure everything was perfect. It seriously made us enjoy our day so much more knowing that Danielle was helping handle everything else. I really thought I could pull off our wedding without a coordinator but the BEST choice and investment we made was hiring Danielle because I seriously can't imagine how our wedding would have gone without her. Highly recommend!

I got married at Lake Pearl in July 2024, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! From start to finish, the entire staff was an absolute dream to work with. They truly held my hand through the whole process, making everything feel so seamless and stress-free. One of the best parts was that the venue included beautiful floral centerpieces and a delicious cake, which took so much coordination off my plate. Their preferred vendors and the staff are like a well-oiled machine, working together flawlessly. Lake Pearl is also the perfect backdrop for photos, with a beach, dock, gardens, and tree-lined forest areas that provide diverse landscapes for stunning photo opportunities. I got married in the new Belvedere building, which is a showstopper filled with great lighting and tons of windows! Getting ready on-site was a wonderful experience, with breakfast and lunch catered to the bridal suite, making for a perfect, relaxed start to the day. From the cocktail hour to the reception, everything went smoothly, and it truly was the best day of my life. A huge thank you to Jules and Janet for making everything perfect! Lake Pearl will always hold a special place in my heart, and I highly recommend it to any couple looking for an unforgettable wedding experience.
