Jay Dee Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,800
  • Serves Melrose, MA

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

tldr: Jessica is amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with her if this is the style of photos you like I had a lot of difficulty picking a photographer as I’m pretty picky with photos. I knew I wanted something bright and light, with kind of a whimsical or ethereal vibe, but it was really hard finding the style until I came across the “fine art” style. Jessica’s name came up while researching this style and I decided to reach out to her among a few other fine art photographers. I definitely hoped talks would go well with Jessica as the others I contacted ended up either not responding or were wildly out of my budget. Pre-Planning: Jessica was wonderful throughout this process. She promptly responded to my emails and answered questions clearly. I never felt like I was left in the dark for any part of the process. When I sent her the timeline of the ceremony/reception, she quickly came up with a timeline to slot in all the photos to be taken ahead of time at the location (We had access to the venue for a little over an hour prior to the ceremony). She also asked for a list of family photos that we wanted to take. This made it very easy at the wedding as she could call out people’s name to make sure everyone that was supposed to be in the pictures, were in the pictures. Jessica also sent over a list of ideas for detail shots and explained she could do this ahead of time. We didn’t want extra pictures of these and decided against it, however, I still thought it was very thoughtful of her to offer. Wedding Day: I loved her energy at the wedding. She was very calm and felt very competent. She directed my husband and I throughout the pictures, showing us poses etc. During family and wedding party photos, even though we had many bodies to fit in the frame in quite a few pictures, she led us through them with ease and the entire experience was very stress free (or as stress free as can be at a wedding lol). The venue was quite dim at specific locations, but the final results did not reflect that at all. The pictures were bright and did not look like they were taken in the dark at all. (This is a little off topic but I loved the little apron with pockets she wore for her equipment. So cute) I’m not sure when Jessica had the time, but there were pictures around the venue which were so beautiful. I definitely feel like the day was captured through the pictures. Post Wedding: Jessica sent us a sneak peak 2 days after the wedding containing 23 pictures. They turned out great and were beautiful. You can see examples on her website so I won’t elaborate, but they really are that good. The full gallery was sent almost a month after the wedding (minus 2 days) with instructions on purchasing prints or an album attached. The full download contained 650ish files, including the sneak peek pictures. Half of which were black and white, so this matched up pretty perfectly with Jessica’s estimation of the amount of photos when we spoke in the pre-planning stage.

As a wedding photographer myself, I tend to be extra critical when it comes to vendors - but Nicole truly stands out from the crowds. When Im not available for a wedding or portrait session - I send couples straight to Nicole, knowing they will be in good hands! Beyond her clear talents, the experience Nicole gives to her clients is top notch. I've had the pleasure of working with her on many events - and her bubbly personality, professionalism with a side of laid-back awesomeness, and contagious smiles are 10/10. She's an absolute rockstar - and the Boston wedding industry is lucky to have her!!!

Planning the wedding was not easy. But with help from friends and even a stranger made a huge impactful experience. Our photo/videographer team were more than capable of doing their tasks at its finest, they were more than willing to make sure that we have the best experience we could even ask for. They were generous to used most of their equipments, top-up more crew just to make sure that they can capture moments that we can reminisce in our lifetime. Needless to say, our experience with them was superb.

Christopher Raspa Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Melrose, MA

If you are looking for a seacoast New Hampshire based photographer then you are in the right place! My style is deeply rooted in classical photojournalism influenced by fine-art and fashion photography. The result produces clean, crisp and creative photography that is romantic, fun and emotional. I pride myself on not just being a photographer but also an artist creating unique and expressive imagery. I look forward to working with you!

I CANNOT thank Christopher enough for shooting our engagement session! From booking to receiving the final portfolio, he was on top of communication and went above and beyond when it came to actually photographing us. I have to say, yes, his communication was great, yes, the photos are phenomenal, but the thing I absolutely loved the most is how comfortable he made me feel. Not just comfortable, but beautiful. I'm a bigger girl and I made Chris aware of my insecurities and worries about being in front of the camera. He assured me he would capture the right angles and make sure I loved the way I looked in every photo. And, boy, did he deliver! I have never felt as beautiful as I did that evening. Even when he was taking solo pictures of me without my fiancé and wouldn't show me until he sent the final product! We cannot wait to hire Chris to photograph our 2026 wedding!

I am a self-proclaimed nerd and total goofball who is always up for an adventure, especially if it means going to the beach. I love to travel. I have been blessed to find “home” on three different continents, and I speak fluent English, Spanish and Portuguese. My husband Mike, sons Javi & Ro, baby Soleil and pup Tag are my greatest motivation. They simultaneously drive me crazy and keep me grounded. The love, strength and energy I get from them shapes my perspective on the world, and is something that I want to share with you. In addition to all that, I happen to be one of the luckiest people in the world – I love my job!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I planned our wedding for 2020... before the world went haywire, and Holly rode the wave with us from beginning to end. Between reschedules, engagement photos, her photographing our spur of the moment small elopement, and then our big wedding celebration and vow renewal this year with family and friends, I can say with complete confidence I know her work ethic and her commitment to her craft. And they are both top notch. She will do anything to get the perfect shot, she will make your nervous partner more than comfortable being themselves in front of the camera, and she will even pin a boutonnière (because this bride could not!!) when in need. We have so many perfect moments captured I can't even begin to thank her for, because with the right photographer you can relive a moment over and over. You will not be disappointed if you choose Holly for your special day!

If you love cats, traveling the world, the TV show LOST, and chocolate, then we might be twin flames. But even if none of those things apply to you, don't worry, we'll probably still get along just fine. I'm a wedding photographer, originally from Boston, but also living just north of Miami now. When I'm not in those two locations, I'm living my Carmen Sandiego dream by exploring the rest of the globe one city at a time. If you ever need advice on how to pack just a carry-on for a two-week trip abroad in a cold-climate country, I can help with that. Death before checked baggage, amirite? Let's be friends.

Danielle is the consummate professional. Skilled, capable, and talented. She is a kind person with excellent people skills and has a way of making everyone feel at ease that she interacts with. She is extremely dependable as well as invested in the work she does and produces. She cares deeply about what she does and how she does it, which is not always an easy quality to find in someone. She's a rare gem.

Hi, I'm Jn Francois Pierre, the owner of JFP Memories. I have a passion for capturing life's most beautiful moments through photography. At JFP Memories, wedding photography is one of our specialties. We ensure that your special day is documented with elegance and creativity. Our goal is to tell your unique love story through stunning images that you'll cherish forever. Let's create unforgettable memories together!

I first worked with Jean-Francois when he was the hospitality director at a Taylor Swift-themed event that I was DJing. On a whim, I asked if he was free to assist with a recent wedding. I'm glad that I did! In most cases, when I hire someone to help me, they are in the way as much as they are helpful. Not so with Jean-Francois! He learned on the fly and even offered improvements on tasks that I have been performing for years. His versatility, professionalism, and friendly demeanor are the qualities you want when building a wedding vendor team. He was even able to take some beautiful pictures for my socials and I was pleasantly surprised to see that I was smiling in them. 12/10 would highly recommend!

Real moments & love stories. Queer/LBGTQ+ always Hi, I'm Sasha (she/her or they/them). I am friendly, easy going, and real happy to join you on your wedding day. It’s your wedding. Be comfortable. Enjoy it. I pay attention, I anticipate, and I work hard to get your real, genuine moments and emotion.

I feel so passionately about recommending Sasha I don't even know where to begin! My fiancee and I, as well as several members of our wedding party, have not stopped talking about how great she was since our wedding a couple weeks ago. Sasha did our photos for both our engagement shoot and our wedding. When we started wedding planning, it was important to us to hire vendors who not only aligned with a product we wanted and our price range, but also who were kind, good people we'd want to spend our wedding day with. Some vendors fell short, but Sasha made up for it and then some. First of all, Sasha is EXTREMELY talented. She really captures your essence in her work and several people commented to me that they could "feel" our wedding and emotions through our photos. Her photos are not cheesy or contrived, which was something we knew we wanted when hiring a photographer, and her values aligned with what we were looking for. She is very talented at working with lighting in special and artistic ways. She will "yes and" every single one of your ideas and suggestions for your photos, and really listens to your requests and preferences. Beyond all of this, even if I hated the photos (which is far from the case, I love them so much), I would hire her again and again. Your photographer is someone you spend a LOT of time with on your wedding day. Having someone with good, calm, kind energy who you vibe with is really important. I had a somewhat rough start to my day, getting a bit overwhelmed and behind schedule. Sasha was exactly the person I needed to be with to help ground and calm the energy of everything when it otherwise felt chaotic. She is cool as a cucumber under pressure, kind to every single person she meets, carries such a positive energy, and is a true professional at pivoting/troubleshooting when something goes wrong. She's also a quiet leader who will help keep your wedding running smoothly, pay attention to your timeline, etc. We had a giant wedding party and she somehow corralled people very quickly to get all the group shots we requested, so that I never had to think about it. On the wedding day, as others have said, she was somehow everywhere, but in the least obstructive way possible. I didn't even notice her during the reception or ceremony yet somehow she captured amazing pictures from lots of amazing angles. Leading up to the wedding, Sasha was a delight to work with. She was VERY responsive and willing to meet with us both over the phone and in person. She took the time to do a walk-through of our venue with us, which put me at ease to scope out where we'd take pictures. She even hopped on a Zoom call with us while on her vacation the week before our wedding. Last but not least, Sasha got us our engagement pictures AND our wedding gallery preview much faster than anticipated! If I sound slightly crazed in my obsession for Sasha, it's because I am lol. Sasha's beautiful spirit matches her the high level of talent and artistry in her work. This is your sign to hire her!

You can call me Jem. The first think you'll notice about me is my accent. Originally from Sydney Australia, I followed love to the other side of the planet. I've been photographing weddings since 2010 after I was asked by a friend if I would be their wedding photographer and I haven't found another job that has made me feel quite the same way as Wedding Photography.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Jem for our wedding, and the experience was beyond amazing! From the initial consultation (over drinks!) to the final delivery of photos, Jem was professional, creative, and truly passionate about capturing every special moment. On the big day, Jem made us feel completely at ease, blending seamlessly with our friends & family while also taking charge to ensure all the important shots were captured. The quality of the photos is stunning—every shot feels candid yet perfectly composed, capturing the essence of our celebration. She also listened to our vision and incorporated those ideas into the photos beautifully. Her attention to detail and ability to capture not just moments, but emotions, really stood out. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Jem to anyone looking for a talented, personable, and FUN wedding photographer. Jem truly made our day unforgettable!

She can put you in the most relaxed and candid poses but still makes sure she fixes that wrinkled shirt or hair sticking up or double chin :) She’s very communicative and makes sure she gets to know you as person rather than just a client.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

No matter your size, race, gender, sexual orientation or religion, we're here to hype you up as you share all your wildest wedding ideas with us!

Meaghan and Evan photographed our Halloween wedding and we couldn't imagine having anyone else! We met Meaghan and Evan last October when they shot our engagement photos. They were more than willing to trudge through our favorite park and stop at all our favorite spots to get some beautiful photos we used for our save the date. We got to get to know them a little more over at our favorite little ramen restaurant after the session and of course we were instantly sold! Meaghan was super communicative and responded to every email I sent her pretty much right away every single time. As we got closer to the wedding day, she sent an incredibly detailed questionnaire. It covered everything from our most important shots to what weird family dynamics she should be conscious of; we sincerely appreciated this level of care, especially as a queer couple with some iffy family things. When I was hiring vendors, it was extremely important to me to find vendors who were queer/queer friendly and body positive, and Meaghan checked off both boxes in spades. My wife and I both have huge body insecurities and are deeply self-conscious of photos-but Meaghan made us both feel so beautiful. I was never even aware of the parts of myself I am usually hyper aware of because Meaghan and Evan both made us feel so comfortable. We were able to laugh and feel every emotion without once worrying about how we would look in the photos. On the day of, Meaghan kept us right on track without rushing us or making us feel stressed. We were definitely running behind at points but Meaghan handled it all with grace and helped me keep my head above water the whole time. They captured every moment in such a storybook way that we are able to talk about and remember every detail of the day based on the photos. This gallery is such a keepsake and such a special reminder of the best day of our lives. Its so heartwarming to look back and see how happy we and our guests look. And my wife and I both couldn’t have asked for more stunning photos of ourselves. We both look and feel so feminine, so whimsical, so magical. She captured our authentic selves, which is what makes her photos so unique and beautiful. I can't wait to order our prints and have these photos in our home forever! Thank you, Meaghan and Evan. There's so much more I could say but I'll leave off with, we are so grateful to have had you on our day. We love our photos so much. And we can't wait to have you do another shoot for us sometime in the near future! We cannot recommend you highly enough!

My couples mean the world to me. I love hearing their stories, what makes them tick, and the things that are important to them. It’s my goal to capture them exactly the way they are; how they crack jokes, poke fun, dance together, hold one another. I’m there to capture the genuine tears, the laughs, how you just fit so well together. With directive posing, I bring out real chemistry and personalities. With my laid back vibe, I’ll ensure even the photo-heavy parts of the day are a breeze. I believe every single part of a wedding should be a blast and that every couple should be celebrated in their own unique way.

I could not have asked for a better person to capture my wedding! On our wedding day, it poured rain and I was absolutely devastated that the outdoor wedding I had been dreaming of was not happening. As I was sitting there faced with that reality, about to ruin my makeup with tears, Andrea swooped in like a superhero and genuinely made me feel like the rain was a good thing. She was the only voice of reason that made me feel like everything was still perfect. She ran around in the rain with us all day capturing the most gorgeous photos and I didn’t feel like I missed out at all. She was prepared with clear umbrellas and we actually had fun! She is also just so talented, the pictures and the saturation are just absolutely gorgeous, and not only that but she also has an absolute talent for capturing joy and movement. All my vendors have chosen to use her photos from my wedding on their websites, seriously just hire her!!!

Falling in love with life + photography every day. I'm a traveling wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Boston Massachusetts. Specializing in bright, airy but more true to tone images. For the laidback couples, who go with the flow. Welcoming the hopeless romantics, who finally found their person. The dog lovers, the sunset + sunrise lovers, those ready for an adventure and believe in the magic of their own lives.

Manuela Mejia Photography was a joy to work with for our wedding. From the beginning, their communication was punctual, friendly and clear, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. They were so accommodating, providing timely updates and collaborating with us to capture the day beautifully. The quality of their work was excellent, and we are thrilled with the photos that will allow us to revisit our big day. We highly recommend Manuela Mejia Photography to any couple looking for a talented and professional photographer.

I have always been enthusiastic about photography. One thing that really got me into photography was realizing that every moment can be something very special. I like to take pictures of candid moments with natural light. With those, my camera is just clicking and the results are always phenomenal! I believe that one photo could create an incredible story. That's why I have lots of affection towards every photo and I work on them with all of my heart.

Julie was everything we were looking for in a photographer and more! A talented photographer, extremely professional, easy to work with, and an upbeat personality. Julie not only took fantastic photos that we are going to cherish, she was able to capture our wedding day story in the way we were hoping for with a mix of portraits, action shots, and candids. My wife is usually uncomfortable having her picture taken, which we were able to discuss with Julie during our virtual consultations. Julie did an amazing job of making us both comfortable and efficiently capturing the posed portraits. She also managed to take artistic candids unobtrusively from afar, some of which ended up being our favorite shots! Plus she was just pleasant to work with and have around on our special day! Thank you Julie for capturing our moments better than we could have imagined.

I am a self proclaimed romantic at heart, always have been. After 19 years of marriage, I am a believer in true love! Photographing the special day for couples of all ages and walks of life, is a real joy and I get a charge of excitement for each gig. Anyone that has met me knows that I am an extroverted person who is always on the move; always talking and thinking; and often engaging with others. I make everyone feel at ease. As a wedding photographer I leverage my experience as a pro along with my personality.

Hi, I'm Addie. I started this business about 10 years ago, although photography has been a passion of mine since high school. What attracted me to photography is the idea of capturing the fleeting: be they big moments or small, capturing something priceless never gets old for me. When you look at a photo, you are transported back to instant it was taken. Even if your memory is foggy, a photo will sharpen it up. Photos are records and reminders, memories and wormholes in time. Helping to preserve those fleeting moments for my clients is so fulfilling and one of the things I love most about what I do.

Awarded Best of Zola
Dave and I hired Addie on a whim after having to reschedule our wedding twice and then ultimately deciding to elope in Boston closer to our families. Living in Colorado, we didn't have the opportunity to meet Addie before our elopement, but that didn't stop her from making us feel incredibly relaxed and comfortable. We cannot have been more thrilled by the experience she created, her professionalism, and commitment to ensuring that we captured all our important moments and more that day. We were also so thrilled with the photos she took. We are so grateful to have worked with Addie and cannot recommend her more for your special occassion!

I became a wedding photographer to give you a sense relief that comes when you know you have a photographer that will be your ultimate hype person, be that person where you can always just be yourself in front of, and a person that will always look out for you on your big day. I want you to feel as if I am an extended friend throughout this process and trust me to capture who you truly are.

I can not say enough good things about Warren! Planning a wedding is so stressful and doing it during covid made it outright not a good time. Luckily we found Warren early in our planning process and he made us feel so secure about our photography decision. He was an excellent hype man throughout the whole planning process and especially on the big day. My bridal party loved working with him and had a blast taking photos. He truly makes you feel like family and takes great care to make you feel at ease through all of the awkward wedding poses. He captured our relationship in the most beautiful, romantic way. I have received endless compliments on my photos and I can’t wait to relive my day for so many years to come.

Well, being married to my best friend and soul mate, father to three of the most beautiful, strong, and wicked smaht women evah is how I spend my off days. Married for almost 20 years and the kiddies all grown up the wife and I love traveling, enjoying good rye, always on the hunt for the best old fashioned, and being vegans. My goals in life currently is to travel the country in a van with our little dog winter a.k.a “my buddy” and enjoy the little things just in every state possible!

Awarded Best of Zola
We have had the pleasure of working with Redwood Rye Studios a number of times at a variety of private events, and the warmth, care, and artistry that is poured into their work truly stands out against the backdrop of dozens of other professionals that we've worked with. They take special care to make sure their clients/couples feel heard as far as their vision is concerned; they gently prompt folks (who may have little to no experienced being photographed) to get comfortable in front of a camera to ensure photos feel natural; they also add a personal touch of friendship which is formed quickly but earnestly, with everyone. And on top of all that, their photos are absolutely beautiful, ranging from dramatic to quirky to intimate and everything in between. They rise above the "sameness" that you might notice from browsing dozens of other photographers by choosing unique, visionary ways to capture their couples. In my experience from browsing their shots of our shared events, my eyes tend to float around their photos, noticing different interesting elements of light and dark, foreground, background, and the subject itself. Of course, they'll nail all the standard poses as well, and beautifully at that, but you'll also be left with some stunning once in a lifetime shots that you'll treasure for ever. On top of all this, we know of a number number of folks who have worked with Redwood and Rye's team on a professional basis who have gone on to stay close friends on a personal basis. This is all just a testament to their approach and energy. They are true gems in the photography world -- do not hesitate to start a conversation with them about your plans!!!!

I did not not grow up with a camera in my hand knowing I wanted to be a photographer. I started with photography by photographing Punk/Hardcore bands but eventually stopped photographing those shows because I didn't want my camera gear to get broken by someone stagediving. Being apart of that music scene help me cultivate friendships with people all over the world, and gave me lots of travel opportunities. Those experiences carried over into weddings helping me understand real documentary style moments and being comfortable surrounded by new people.

I had the pleasure of working with Yaritza for my engagement photos & wedding and can't recommend her highly enough. Her communication style is fun, easy-going, while still professional, making the entire process a breeze. Yaritza has a keen eye for detail and captures authentic, candid moments that truly tell the story of our special day. She even had her husband come meet us with a pedicab for some late-night city photos, which was such a thoughtful and above-and-beyond gesture. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who won't miss a single special moment, Yaritza Colon Photography is the perfect choice.

Easygoing and thoughtful are the two adjectives that come to mind when considering how I approach my work. As a wedding photographer, it’s my job to help my couples feel comfortable, ultimately setting the tone for everything. This approach allows me to preserve the authenticity of your wedding day so that every image in your gallery is true to you. Based in Boston, I have over seven years of experience within the industry and a BFA in photography from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University.

Rebecca is an amazing photographer and takes beautiful pictures. Everyone who saw our pictures has commented on the quality and elegance of the photos. She is friendly and punctual and organized which helped us stay on schedule. She is very professional, and very communicative about specific photo shots/ideas during pictures and very clear about specific poses and how to execute them so it looks flattering. I would recommend her to everyone as their wedding photographer or event photographer!

Hi, I am Kristen, the founder of KNG Photography! Life is an amazing journey that should be preserved with its lasting memories. Every milestone and moment should be honored and documented through photography so they can be treasured for years to come. My clients receive an experience not just a session, and a final album that exhibits true personalities, emotions and most of all, love. Embrace the power of the moment and invite me to help create life's most precious memories.

KNG Photographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day last summer. The photographers were understanding, great at directing guests around, and fit right into the wedding day seamlessly. By the end of the night even my bridesmaids said that Kristen was the best wedding photographer that they’ve ever had (and they’ve been in quite a few weddings). Kristen was amazing at reading the room, finding phenomenal poses to take photographs, and capturing both the details and the important shots. I can’t say more positive things about how KNG photography handled themselves and made our special day perfect. Kristen understood how to make little kids cooperate and understood when they wouldn’t. She knew how to capture vulnerable moments - like those with my dad - and offered to take special shots that we would have never considered (and of course they came out perfectly). She captured the most beautiful moments from our wedding day that I was shocked by. The vibrancy in her photos is unbelievable. Kristen wanted to make sure that she understood what we wanted for the big day and met with us multiple times before the wedding to ensure that her vision and our vision aligned. I could tell immediately when looking at her sneak peak of photos that she captured our vision perfectly. I had a terminally family member in the wedding and Kristen ensured I had the most perfect photos with them. We ended up putting those gorgeous photographs in their hospital room later down the line where all the nurses complimented how they were taken since they liked the candid style instead of having only standard posed photos. I will cherish these photos for the rest of my life. I couldn’t recommend her enough for your wedding day. You. Will. Not. Regret. It.
