Awarded Best of Zola
We had Emmet and Naomi for our indoor December wedding, the venue was a log cabin style lodge. They were a perfect match and we were so glad we chose them. They learned one of our favorite songs for the opening to our ceremony, playing a beautiful instrumental version of it. Our guests loved the music, that it was accessible for everyone, young and old alike. We had toddlers dancing in front of the band, but the guests seated closest to the band during dinner could still carry on a conversation easily. A lot of people really appreciated this, that they could add ambiance and energy without overpowering you. We especially want to thank them for traveling through the blizzard conditions to be there that weekend. We were hoping for a snowy winter wedding, and we got all the snow we could handle that weekend! The Poor Cousins really helped everything come together for us, and we would absolutely recommend them to anybody!

Hi there! I'm Nia, a wedding and elopement photographer based in Boston, MA but obsessed with traveling. I love the days when I stumble upon a new landscape, learn something new from a stranger or aimlessly drive until I end up somewhere decent. This is why I love storytelling. My favorite stories to tell are by far the love shared between two people. Storytelling and making a moment last is what drew me to photography. Documenting your day in an honest, soulful way that shows who you are is what I strive for.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Nia for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. From the moment we met her, her easy-going nature put us at ease. She made us feel comfortable and genuinely connected with us. We are both somewhat camera shy and she made the entire process from our engagement photos to our wedding SO fun. We wanted our event captured candidly and she truly did that. The turnaround time for our sneak peak photos was impressively fast and they exceeded our expectations. Each photo beautifully captured the emotions of the day, and we loved that they felt authentic and true to us. If you're looking for a photographer who is personable, communicative, and delivers stunning work, we wholeheartedly recommend Nia.

Growing up in the suburbs of Boston and attending undergrad in Connecticut, I’m a true New England gal. Winter holds a special place in my heart, as I embrace the beauty and charm of every location I photograph.

That would honestly make my heart smile! 😊 My mission: create timeless, heirloom-quality artwork that reflects the unique connection & individuality of each couple I have the honor to serve.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

STOP, and do not look ANY further!!! INCREDIBLE! My husband and I were big on wanting an incredible band to lead our guests through an unforgettable evening. I spent endless days searching and searching for a band. So many of wedding bands, sound just like that, a wedding band. But Champagne Casanova is not your typical “wedding band.” They are just a straight up talented group of incredible musicians. We hired them to do music through our ceremony, perform at cocktail hour, and perform for our reception. They surpassed any expectations I may have had for our wedding. So many of our guests asked me how I found them, and were so floored by their performance that they wanted their business card. Daniel, Crystal and the crew were absolutely exceptional and I truly believe that if you don’t hire them for your wedding, you are doing yourselves and your guests a disservice. Daniel communicated with me through email and was incredibly friendly, helpful, and responsive through the entire process. I truly cannot say enough nice things about these guys!!!

My hope is that after our session is over, my work turns into some of your most cherished memories decorating your home and your hearts.

My husband and I started planning our destination wedding at Blair Hill Inn and as our day was quickly approaching we realized we would benefit from a day-of coordinator in order to truly enjoy our wedding day. We were instantly put at ease after a consultation with Hillary. We hired Hillary for day-of coordination services and two zoom planning calls leading up to our wedding day. As we entered our wedding week with a strong likelihood of rain, Hillary went above and beyond to create multiple contingency plans, working flawlessly with our other vendors to ensure we could carry out all the aspects we wanted in our day. As the weather forecast changed by the minute just prior to our ceremony, Hillary made recommendations but ultimately left decisions up to us when it came to changing our timeline, and carried out our decisions without hesitation. She was genuinely invested in making sure our wedding day went perfectly, and thanks to her expertise it did!

Jaime & Eddie were the photography duo of our dreams. Their balance of artistry and realism comes together to make the most beautiful images that capture the joy and emotion of our day, while still hitting on all the major “bridal” points. From the beginning, Jaime and Eddie vibed so well with us, really taking our vision for engagement photos to the next level (even driving us around Boston in their car to find hidden gems). They took the lead on ensuring our wedding timeline was well rounded and encompassed everything we wanted to do for the day (even taking the curve ball of a boat ride in the middle of cocktail hour in stride). Although they had never shot our venue before, they drove over on their own time ahead of the weekend to walk around the property - truly going the unnecessary extra mile. The results of their calm and professional, yet fun and lighthearted nature are incredibly beautiful. A mere day or two after our wedding, we had dozens of stunning sneak peeks to look through and share. A month later, we are still getting compliments on how amazing they were in person and how beautiful the finished product is. Could not recommend them more!

I have spent many years passionately honing my craft, tirelessly learning new techniques and truly learning what it means to make photography art and not just pictures. I have worked with National Non-Profit organizations, Clear Channel Media, international recording artists and have had my work showcased in Times Square in NYC. With all of my experiences in the industry, I have found a love and passion for capturing what I would consider one of the last real experiences in a world filled with AI, reality television and questionable realities brought to you by social media. The experience of Love between two people. ​

Hi, I’m Hannah. I’m a lover of art, stories, and spark—the perfect alchemy to creating and capturing all those memory-making, magical moments. Weddings, to me, are about your unique narrative, your origin stories and your threads of connection; the ways in which you’ve woven a love through a tapestry of compassion and inspiration and all that makes you you— both as individuals and as a couple. That’s the fabric of the photo, the material I like to work with; because of this, my photos lean atmospheric and candid.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Hannah was so easy, and the photos from our wedding were exactly what I wanted. I really wanted to maximize the amount of time I spent enjoying my wedding and guests, and Hannah's style was perfect for this – we got our posed portraits done quickly, and the rest of the time she was able to capture what was actually taking place at the wedding. In terms of pre-wedding prep, we met once before I signed the contract and then again about a month before the wedding to nail down details. Hannah was very communicative throughout the whole process, and she turned around 25 beautiful pictures within a week of the wedding for us to share around. I just got 200 more pictures back, and they are stunning. Hannah is such a talent, and I highly recommend her.

We worked with DJ Shyne (Jeff) for our wedding and I cannot emphasize enough what a great experience we had. This is not your average/cookie cutter DJ experience. DJ Shyne is a true professional and our wedding music was completely customized to our vibes and preferences. He was very responsive and communicative every step of the way, helped us make a timeline for the day, and made sure he understood our vision, all while bringing so much creativity and enthusiasm to the whole experience. We received so many compliments from our guests, they could not stop raving about how great the DJ was and couldn’t stay off the dance floor, and we also received great feedback from our venue coordinator about how responsive and professional DJ Shyne was. As the bride and groom, some of our best memories from our wedding day are dancing together and hearing all our favorite songs. We highly recommend DJ Shyne for your wedding or special event!

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

L & L Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Lexi, one of the photographers, was incredibly effective and charismatic in her communication style, making the experience fun and easy. She was patient in answering all our questions and ensuring every moment was captured beautifully. The quality of their work is truly top tier, and their services are very affordable, making them a tremendous value. Lexi rocked every single moment, seamlessly blending into the celebration and creating absolute magic with her moody, romantic photography style. I've worked with many photographers, and Lexi is now my go-to - I cannot recommend L & L Photography highly enough.

From NY to TX, then back again... I started my photography adventure 10 years ago in a small studio in upstate, New York. Since then, I've traveled across the country, taking pictures the entire time. I've captured a lifetime of memories in pictures, and now, I hope I can do the same for you! I specialize in weddings and portraiture, with experience in real estate photography as well! I love helping my customers make memories to cherish for years to come. When I'm not taking pictures, I am working as a nurse and dreaming of the days when I can put my toes in the sand with my nieces in Cape Cod.

Katharine M. Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. As a great communicator who responds quickly, Katharine made us feel so comfortable and helped make our wedding day fun and stress-free. Her work is amazing - the photos are beautiful and perfect, capturing every special moment. She followed our shot list to a tee and then some, even handling our pushy father-in-law gracefully when he tried to take over. I've used Katharine for both our wedding and engagement photos, and I'm thrilled I did. Her go-with-the-flow style was exactly what I needed on the big day.

Our team prides ourselves on being professional third-wheels on your wedding day. We are perfect for those who thrive on love and connection, and are looking for bold and purposeful imagery. We have 2 wedding associates, 2 family photographers, and a husband and wife videography team

When we started looking for photographers for our wedding last June, I was (unpleasantly) surprised at how expensive they all were- it seemed a little crazy combined with all of the other mounting expenses! After a close friend recommended Maddy, we decided that we had to bite the bullet and hoped that the photos would be worth it in the end. Lo and behold, Maddy did a fantastic job with the photos and we were super pleased with the product in the end. But it was not just the photos that Maddy provided- I was genuinely so blown away by how Maddy ended up playing such a pivotal part of our actual wedding day! Her enthusiasm, kindness, and loving nature were so evident from start until finish. Taking pictures in between our wedding mass and the reception was not just a task that had to be done, rather it was such beautiful and FUN part of the day (so much so that we were not even bothered by the Florida heat). Kyle and I are so grateful for the photos that we have of our special day and even more grateful to Maddy for helping make the day itself so amazingly special for both of us!
