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!

Courtney was absolutely incredible! She was able to capture every special moment of our wedding and then some. She went the extra mile and got aerial footages with a drone! And she helped us get pictures with every guest while still having time to enjoy each other on our wedding day. You won’t find any better than Courtney!

My gift is my vulnerability, passion, and dedication. I believe every image has the power to evoke emotions that can't be expressed in words. I'm dedicated to creating imagery that speaks to your heart and soul, capturing the essence of a moment and evoking powerful emotions that will last a lifetime. I want to be your newest best friend behind the camera, capturing your honest love, the miracle of life, and your passion for life. Your truth is my mission.

When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me. She curated a family shot list, and let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her and her team were amazing.

Situated out of Providence, Rhode Island, R&I Photography is a wedding photography company. Owners, Rebecca and Ilia specialize in providing candid, natural, and artistic photography while helping couples to relax and have fun in front of the camera. Every couple's love is unique and wonderful, and this team wants to give them a collection and an experience they'll remember and cherish forever.

I am so beyond thankful to have hired Rebecca and Ilia for our wedding photography. Throughout the whole process leading up to the day, they always made me feel calm, kept us organized, and helped add to the excitement of our day. We first met Rebecca for our engagement shoot - she braved a rainy day with us to get shots on the beach. I also had mentioned I had hoped to get a photo back in a shorter time frame to put on our wedding invitations - she ended up delivering our whole gallery early, and they were all so beautiful! The day of the wedding, they made us feel so comfortable and we had so much fun taking photos with them! Our "sneak peak" included a little taste of each part of the day, which is way more than I was expecting, and we could not be more thankful for them. I keep looking at them and just get more excited for our full gallery! Their editing style, and the moments they captured are exactly what I was hoping for with a wedding photographer. I couldn't recommend them more, and will definitely be recommending them to all of my engaged friends! Thank you Rebecca and Ilia so much!!! You are beautiful people, inside and out, who create beautiful work!

Hedi Field Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Serves Oakland, RI

My love for art and photography began 10 years ago. That's when I bought my first camera. It was love at first sight! My job is way more than just to create beautiful imagery. It is to help you have fun and feel like a rockstar in front of the camera!

I cannot recommend Hedi Field Photography enough and would give 100 stars if I could! If you are considering hiring her for your engagement, rehearsal dinner, or wedding please look no further. We used her for all three and could not be happier - not only did we end up with the most incredible photos that we will cherish forever, but we gained such beautiful, fun, memories working with her that will always hold a special place in our hearts. Hedi is extremely talented at capturing your love and bond with ease, and she has such a warm, kind, and infectious energy that makes you feel comfortable from your first picture with her. As a reference - we had worked with another photographer before that did not have this touch, and the photos came out very stoic and awkward as a result. Over 1000 photos from Hedi later and not one awkward one - each one was so full of life and beauty that it instantly transports you back to the moment and makes you smile! Hedi even made sure movement and life shined through the photos of the scenery and the little details that couples work so hard on, nothing went unnoticed! From our very first meeting, Hedi was incredibly organized, meticulously detail- oriented, and thoughtful. She took the time to understand our vision, ensuring that every moment we wanted to capture was prioritized, in every location, and in every outfit. She created timelines and shoot locations to coordinate with the lighting, time of day, and ease of transition to make the process less about logistics for us and more about fun! Hedi went above and beyond during our engagement session and rehearsal dinner, ensuring we got every shot (for the engagement this consisted of 4 outfits and 3 shooting locations later, and for the rehearsal it meant being extra flexible to the large family demands with a high guest count that all wanted pictures ). Hedi has a warm and approachable demeanor, but she knows how to maintain authority amongst what can be crazy family dynamics, keep on track, and expertly adhere to deadlines, ensuring everything ran smoothly, which was especially important and crucial on our wedding day. Beyond her incredible photography talent, Hedi helped take on extra responsibilities that eased the burden on our bridal party, family, and planner. Everyone at our event loved her personality, enthusiasm, and complimented her amazing work ethic and professionalism. Hedi did absolutely everything in her power to make our day as special as possible, and we are so honored and grateful to have had her as our photographer. After the wedding, Hedi delivered sneak peals on just a couple of days, and our full gallery within 2 months. She even went outside the scope of the contract and checked in with me on editing and preferences (she has the most incredible light and airy editing style that makes every pho look like the cover of Vogue) to make sure everything was perfect. We love you Hedi and cannot thank you or recommended you enough!

My passion for photography stems from my love of travel and capturing life's precious moments. There's nothing more fulfilling than preserving the most beautiful days of your life. Photos are a return ticket to moments gone. My goal is to create lasting memories that inspire and evoke emotions. I believe my purpose is the impact my work has on others. This is my 15th year, and it gets better with each passing year.

I can't say enough about how amazing Stacy is! She has photographed all our family milestones so I knew we would be in good hands when I booked her for our wedding. She exceeded all expectations. I was blown away when I opened the sneak peek photos. I could not stop looking at them. Not only were her photography skills amazing, she was responsive, supportive and available to help all throughout the planning process and on our big day. We had some hiccups that day and I think I would have never managed to pull it off without her. She was definitely my rock. It was stressful due to a malfunction that caused some damage. She didn't even flinch. She came up with a plan on the spot and moved us forward. Thank goodness for her amazing photos! I am able to sit back, look through them and take it all in because they captured everything perfectly. Thank you for being the amazing human being that you are!

Hi! I’m Carol. I am based out of Warren, RI - the cutest lil’ New England town. I mostly photograph in RI and MA, and am willing to travel! The weddings I photograph are small and intimate. With the pandemic we saw a lot of people change their wedding plans to micro weddings, backyard weddings, and elopements. Though the reason for these changes came from public health concerns, I think there has been a shift in how we look at weddings. There is something so beautiful about the intimacy of the closest of family and friends gathered at your home or on the beach. I adore documenting these gatherings and it is a privilege to be a part of.

Carol was able to jump in fairly last minute to photograph our tiny wedding that took place in our home. She was game for some outdoor photos and also took initiative to capture little details around our house. We loved working with her.

I am Oksana Miroshnichenko, owner and lead photographer here. If you need to know anything about me, it’s that I love coffee, travel, plants and Jesus. In 2017, I quit nursing school and moved to Rhode Island to pursue the one thing I knew I was meant to be doing – wedding photography. I now serve couples all over the New England area and Florida during the cooler months.

Oksana and her team were just incredible! Our first introduction to Oksana was over Zoom where she spent the time getting to know us and ask about our relationship but also shared about herself too. Oksana ended up shooting our engagement session in Newport, RI and Aly, Oksana's associate shooter shot our wedding in Cohasset, MA. Both Oksana and Aly are very professional and kind but also so down to earth, making us feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Oksana took the time months before our wedding to set a very detailed day of schedule, which ultimately helped organize the whole wedding day and was very responsive to any questions I had. We recently received our photos back and couldn't be happier. Her edit is natural and timeless, and we will cherish all the memories captured from our wedding day forever!

Hey there! I’m Maria. I grew up with cameras in my life from the very beginning. On my mom’s side of the family, we say “it’s in our blood”. Since my first photography course, I knew that this was something I wanted to incorporate into my daily life. I’ve always lived by the thought that “it’s better to have taken too many pictures than none at all.” I’m here to preserve your memories of your big day!!! I'm in love with love and truly enjoy capturing your story. Your love. Your connection. Let's get you married and let's take some damn good photos while we're at it.

Maria was so fantastic!! My husband and I decided to do a last minute pandemic micro wedding, with just our immediate family and close friends present. Of course, finding any vendors, especially a photographer, last minute is a challenge. Luckily, Maria was recommended to me, and I couldn't have been happier with anyone else! Her style of photography and editing was exactly what I was hoping for! Getting to know her over the phone, and working out a schedule for the day of the wedding was a breeze. She was so great at staying in contact via email and text leading up to the big day. Also, I have a family that requires a lot of guidance (we're talking herding cats here) and Maria was AWESOME at keeping everyone moving and where they needed to be the day of the wedding. She even got all the pictures I wanted of our dog who was included in the wedding ceremony! Despite the rainy weather, she remained upbeat and positive the whole day! And I think her positive attitude was what led to us being rewarded with an amazing pink sunset at the end of our couples pictures. Her poses and editing created the wedding photos of my dreams! I definitely plan to hire Maria again for future family photos!

We are a female owned photography studio specializing in making you look awesome, badass karaoke duets, telling dumb jokes, laughing at said jokes and just being a overall joy for anyone to have at their wedding.

My husband and I are SO HAPPY we went with M. Studios for our wedding! We adore Melissa and Marisa. They are an incredible team, their pictures are literally perfect, and you will feel like you have friends showing up to take your pictures on your wedding day. These ladies are hilarious, charming, and also REALLY REALLY GOOD at what they do. What more can you ask for. First let's rewind all the way to our engagement photos (which I highly recommend doing) - my husband and I are from TX but were living in Rhode Island for 3 months. We really wanted our engagement photos in RI, not TX, but were seriously running out of time due to waiting weeks for some photographers we were talking to to respond. Others were being flaky about scheduling an actual date for the photos with us. Enter M. Studios and they promptly got on a call with us and fit us into their busy schedule, we took our photos a few days before we left the state and they were beautiful. I know that's not easy during the summer wedding season. They communicated well with us when we were home in Texas and I listened to their podcast, haha so I felt like I really got to know them! When they came in on the wedding day, I was so comforted to see familiar faces and knew they would do a great job. My husband and I were just happily enjoying our wedding day and kind of oblivious to what was going on around us, but looking back at all the videos we have you can see Melissa and Marisa always in the perfect position to get those great shots on the dance floor. We laugh about it because we weren't looking to see what photos they were getting at the time, but looking back they were always sneakily getting the great shots! We're so excited to get our pictures and know they will be amazing! They posted a few right away and we have been looking at those on repeat, there's not a single photo we don't love. Oh, and we went over a little on our time (I had no idea what time it was at any point - no phone, no watch) and our videographers packed up and left but M. Studios stayed to take photos of our exit and had a great attitude about that! As a bride, I feel like it's so important to relax and enjoy your day, and trust your vendors. With M. Studios you can rest easy knowing that they will do an amazing job for you. In the sea of all the wedding decisions you're faced with, this one is a no-brainer. If I could go back and do it again, the only thing I would change is I would have booked them faster. Thanks for everything & we love you!

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lacie captured moments that took my breath away. Her style and skill is every bride’s dream. She delivers everything you adore from those Pinterest and Instagram wedding photos. So there is no question she can deliver what she is looking for. And we are beyond thrilled with all of our photos. The sneak peeks are also so much fun (she sends a batch of photos shortly after she shoots you). But where Lacie shines and what I have to tell you about is everything else. She truly went above and beyond. She’s not just a photographer, she’ll be one of your favorite people on your special day. Yes, Lacie is kind and friendly and comforting and just the kind of person you need on your wedding day (and who you wished you roomed with in college). But she is so much more. Here are just some of the few meaningful things Lacie did that I noticed that I’ll forever carry with me. Firstly, I had a very important rosary I wanted to photograph, and with the chaos, I had forgotten. It would have broken my heart if I left it behind. Lacie remembered. I got fixated on an insignificant hiccup on my wedding day that could have ruined my day. Lacie redirected my attention to the things that really mattered and brightened up my mood immediately. Leading up to the wedding, Lacie advocated for me and my husband ensuring us she was fully dedicated to only us on the day, literally saying “You and Sean are my priority.” Nobody and nothing would take her attention away from us. She was always quick to respond to texts, I could go to her for quick wedding advice, and she’s genuinely so passionate about her craft. Lacie could really be a wedding planner with how much she knows. Other vendors loved working with her, especially our videographers. She was so quick, efficient, and took initiative. She gave them space and skillfully took turns capturing moments with them. With a big wedding party and spacious venue, we kept losing track of people for pictures, Lacie corralled them masterfully. She’s not afraid to get people to focus and get the photos done, but also in the most polite and respectful way. I watched videos of brides saying I wish this or that moment was captured. Sometimes I’d forget whether I had those moments captured myself. Then I go to Lacie’s photos and every single thing that brides mentioned got missed by their photographer she captured for me. Her vibe! She’s so positive and cheery. I was so nervous and also worried about how dark my church was. She got me excited about it after turning it into a positive saying it would look like the theater and she could absolutely work with it. I texted her a shoot list the night before our wedding. She carried that around and took it so seriously making sure she captured everything I listed. I made a Pinterest board of photos I liked and she remembered ones I forgot I included in there. She was my favorite vendor (tied with my incredible florist @dazyflorals) and the vendor I had no worries about it. I didn’t have to check in with her. I could trust her with my eyes closed. She’d be where she needed to be on time, professional, and prepared. I’m going to miss her. Sign her and soak up her sunshine for me, will ya?

My photography style is raw, emotional, timeless, and fun.

Holly was immediately responsive & answered all our questions in detail. She was incredible at our engagement shoot & had even looked up several nearby parks to choose from, & looked at great locations within the 1 we chose to shoot our engagement photos. I was able to change outfits & my fiance/now husband & I felt totally comfortable despite it being our 1st time having professional photography focused on us with her down to earth & direct communication style. Our photos turned out gorgeous & classic. On our wedding day, we had a lot of unexpected things happen like wind & rain at our outdoor ceremony & photography session, but she handled it all with grace & got our photos done beautifully & timely with our wedding party & immediate family as we wanted. We did some outdoor portrait photos & got some adorable ones inside our bridal suite. It was relieving to see her there every step of our 8 hours we hired her for, including our pivotal dances, cake cutting, dancing, etc. She even went above & beyond her job by stepping in several times in several ways when our coordinator was completely forgetful & careless. She communicated with my Mom who was very high strung & quick tempered beautifully. My husband & I literally cannot thank her enough for how beautifully & peacefully she took care of our photos & us on our our wedding. Would recommend her 10x over.

Abbe traveled all the way from Philadelphia to Baltimore for both our engagement session and wedding, and her dedication and kindness never wavered. We highly recommend Abbe Foreman Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

Becky and Anderson were amazing!! They beautifully captured so many important moments from the day! We met with Becky twice beforehand and she has a wonderful questionnaire you can fill out to let her know about any important details you want captured! Becky is also a great hype woman, cheering us on throughout the day!! We really wanted to capture sunset photos on the rock jetty, and those are now my husband’s favorite photos!

I am a New England girl through and through - born and raised in Framingham, MA, I now reside with my husband, daughter, cat and dog in Ayer, MA. During a New England Summer, you can catch me at Fenway on a Sunday afternoon or having the best lobster roll (change my mind) at Sesuit Harbor Cafe on Cape Cod. When I’m not taking or editing photos, I am most definitely in the kitchen whipping up a meal from one of Ina Garten’s cookbooks. Love that woman. Or playing with my daughter, Tessa and our pup, Lucy in our backyard. I’m so excited to meet you and to create lasting images that will hang in your home for years to come!

We worked with Jen for our engagement photos and loved her energy and of course her quality of work. We couldn’t wait to use her again for our wedding and she did not disappoint! She makes taking pictures so easy and comfortable while also being knowledgeable in what to shoot. From candids to portraits to detail shots, she captured the day perfectly!! Her style is vibrant and journalistic which is exactly what we wanted for our colorful wedding scheme. We cannot recommend her enough!!! Thank you Jen!

Eric from Wedding Alchemy truly blew us away! After booking, Eric checked in with us regularly throughout our two year engagement and always responded right away if any questions popped up. Eric shot our engagement session, and we loved the photos so much, we used them to make our wedding guestbook. On the actual wedding day, Eric was a calming presence and truly helped make our day feel special. He knew exactly how to guide us in photos so nothing felt posed or overdone. To say we are OBSESSED with our photos is an understatement. We couldn’t recommend Wedding Alchemy enough!!

I’m Felisha, an Award Winning - Published New England Wedding + Portrait photographer with the honor of capturing love stories and cherished moments across New England since 2013. Photography isn’t just my career—it’s the way I connect with people, turning clients into dear friends and fleeting moments into timeless memories. When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll find me soaking up life with my high school sweetheart, our beautiful daughter, and our two chocolate Labradors. My heart beats for real, authentic moments—the kind where love and laughter come effortlessly.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing Felisha to be our wedding photographer truly was one of best decisions we made throughout our planning process. Right from the first phone call with her we could feel her excitement, passion and love for being a photographer. She made us feel comfortable and was there with us every step of the way for the whole time we got to work together. We chose to do our engagement photos with her and she knew just how to shake out all our nerves/shyness, making the whole process fun and stress free. The engagement photos were so beautiful and perfect to use for our Save the Dates. On our wedding day, Felisha was a constant source of genuine joy. She worked with our families and the vendor team seamlessly. She was always there to guide us, she kept everyone on time and she reminded me on multiple occasions to take a second to soak everything in. I had numerous family members and friends come up to me to tell me how amazing our photographer was throughout the night and in the weeks that followed. She laughed with our loved ones, she cried with our loved ones and she broke it down on the dance floor with everyone all while taking the most beautiful photos. And don't even get me started on the film! I will never run out of good things to say about Felisha. She photographed moments that we will cherish forever. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and on the day of our wedding she knew exactly how to capture all the special snippets of our day that would mean the most to look back on. We love Felisha and if we could do it again we would absolutely choose her!

Alexander and I fell in love exploring the World together, from mini baecations, to immersing ourselves in new countries. Our love, has been our greatest adventure. Like most couples, our happily ever started with an elaborate vision of a dream wedding but months after planning we were left feeling incomplete. We found our dreams for a deeply intimate ceremony, lost in the expectations of modern-day wedding planning. We decided to take a leap of faith, following our adventurous hearts and ELOPE. Elle & Co transformed our elopement vision into a reality assisting with planning and providing exceptional care. Dani was truly my cheerleader and best friend wedding planner. Her listening skills are impeccable and attention to details makes her a true artist. Upon meeting Jed and Dani, we knew we made the right choice. We love their energy and connection, so natural. Our elopement was absolutely perfect, everything we hoped and dreamed for. The ceremony was private and intimate captured across breath-taking, beautiful landscape. Time stood still and there was only our forever. Our decision to elope was the most beautiful testament to our love. Our pictures take our breath away with every look. Cheers to adventure, love and elopement Elle and Co. Love always, Alexader & Kee Albaugh

We're Natalie & Ricky - a husband and wife power team offering photo and video since 2013. We are a fine art, film inspired luxury wedding photographer and videographer located in Minneapolis, MN but available for travel across the country. We are Jesus followers, parents to 4 kids, and are crazy about watching The Amazing Race.

Awarded Best of Zola
From our first chats, Natalie was the sweetest human ever. She helped me pick a location for engagement photos when I didn’t know what to do. And she put up with me rescheduling our wedding date several times due to covid. You can tell she really loves what she does and it really shows through in her work. Even when the lighting in our church ceremony was less than ideal, she put in so much extra time and effort to make them as good as they could be. Ricky did our videography and it was so much more beautiful than I ever imagined and we were so happy we had the video package. I felt so lucky to have found Lollipop media for our special day!

I am a travel photographer based out of Louisville, Kentucky. I have always been the friend with the camera admiring those around me. I am truly captivated by people simply being people, always finding beauty in human connections and the REAL. My goal is to be a calming presence, help the day run smooth, and ensure everyone in front of the camera feels COMFORTABLE. I lean toward documentary style photography emphasizing what makes your love unique.

Kaitlyn Carter Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our first interaction, Kaitlyn was responsive, easy-going, but also very professional, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, her calm and friendly presence was so comforting, and she captured every moment beautifully - from the small, intimate details as we were getting ready to the larger, posed family shots. The quality of Kaitlyn's work is simply stunning, with a documentary-style approach and gorgeous natural lighting that perfectly encapsulated the passion and love of our special day. We are thrilled with the photos from our engagement session and wedding day and couldn't recommend Kaitlyn Carter Photography more highly.

Hi! My name is Faith Donahue. I'm a creator from New Hampshire, living in Massachusetts. With a background in graphic design and photography, I decided to start my own business in April 2021. I absolutely love working with people and ensuring they capture their precious memories inside of beautiful images. I spend most of my days enjoying the company of my husband, our dog, Winston, and our newest addition, our little baby boy! I absolutely love to travel and I'm always down to travel for your wedding wherever it may be. I really look forward to working with and getting to know you!

Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend Faith, we chose a package that included an engagement photo shoot which was a great introduction to her and her photography, the quality of those photos put me at ease that our wedding photos would be in good hands. Faith stayed in communication over the course of the almost year between our engagement photos and the wedding. Faith helped us plan out our wedding day timeline and put together a beautiful professional looking timeline document that I was able to send to all of our vendors and family/bridal party, I can’t begin to explain how helpful that was. We chose a package with a second shooter and I’m so glad we did, Faith and her second shooter Stephanie were able to capture every aspect of the day from all angles. Faith was so easy to collaborate with, she took my ideas and ran with them creating magazine worthy shots, I lost count of how many people who said “that bench picture should be in a magazine”. Check out the picture and decide for yourself.

At Aprea Media, we understand that your wedding day is a one-of-a-kind celebration of your love story. We are a husband and wife team specializing in a blend of candid, lifestyle, and editorial photography, we are committed to creating true-to-life images that reflect the beauty and authenticity of your day. Our goal is to capture not just the big moments but also the small, meaningful details that make your celebration uniquely yours.

My husband and I hired Aprea Media, aka Sarah and John, to be our photographers for our wedding. Their package came with an engagement photo session, which we did shortly after hiring them. The engagement session was so much fun! We went to the place we had our first date, LA Burdick, and Sarah captured so many cute photos of us drinking hot chocolate together. We then walked around Cambridge and had some really fun impromptu photos at a flower shop. We loved the engagement photos so much we used them on our save-the-dates and incorporated them into the wedding decor! It was so awesome having Sarah and John both capture all of our special moments on the day of the wedding, from getting ready (BOTH me and my husband have a bunch of awesome getting ready photos!), our first look and portraits before the ceremony, the ceremony itself, cocktail hour, reception festivities, and incredibly artistic details shots. They are both so much fun and offer cute suggestions for poses, but they also go with the flow if you have fun ideas you want to try! We got a lot of really sweet unplanned photos throughout the night. I didn't know anything about different photography styles before we hired them (we just liked their work and they were super friendly), but they really are so experienced with candid/documentary style photography. We love having photos where we can see all the sincere emotions on our faces from laughing, crying with joy, and pure bliss, in addition to our more posed portrait-style photos. Sarah's editing is so dreamy across all our engagement and wedding photos. We now have our walls at home covered in their photography - they did such an amazing job capturing all the fun parts of our day! As a really sweet bonus, they recorded video of our first dance and ceremony upon our request, along with a lot of fun highlights that we get to watch to relive the memories now. We truly can't recommend them enough!!!

I'm a french wedding and elopement photographer based in NYC. Passionate about arts, travel enthusiast and coffee connoisseur. I service NYC, New England and the tri-state area in general. Will travel for destination weddings as well.

We had such a wonderful experience with Ben and his 2nd photographer, Zee for our August wedding. Ben was very on-the-ball and reliable during the whole wedding process; he communicates clearly and made us feel so comfortable and relaxed taking all the photos. He has incredible talent and our wedding album was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined or hoped for. Photography is such an important wedding aspect, and there's no one else I would've felt so comfortable holding that responsibility than Ben. Ben and Zee captured every little moment and emotion felt on our wedding day and I'm grateful we will be able to relive the day through their photos. I will definitely be recommending Ben to my friends and family for their weddings and any photoshoot needs!
