I strive to create a stress free experience, so that you can focus on what truly matters — each other and enjoying every second of your wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had some trepidation around choosing a photographer for our elopement, mainly because we really wanted any photos taken to reflect the two of us, and our relationship, authentically. We wanted intimate, personal, simple, and classic...and we found all of these things in Tessa. Tessa always put our vision at the forefront of her work, and she worked with us every step of the planning process to make our elopement seamless. She suggested venues, worked with our busy schedules to coordinate planning meetings, and even served as our officiant. Throughout it all, she was the perfect balance of honesty, warmth, and professionalism, and we would work with her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Tessa, for everything. You are amazing!

Lorna Stell Photo

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Swampscott, MA

I’m a Virginia transplant who makes her home north of Boston shooting micro-weddings and elopements. I’m obsessed with the diversity and energy of the city, but also with how easy it is to escape to nature in New England. As an introvert, I definitely need both! I’m married to a handsome fellow creative (of the wordsmithing and storytelling variety) and we love our homebody life together. I’m a photographer because I think people are fascinating. Because memories are fleeting. Because we all need some beauty around us to help us remember how incredibly blessed we are to be alive.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are looking for a photographer who really cares about the people she works with, takes great pictures and awesome to work with then Lorna is your person! When searching for a proposal photographer I was looking for someone that would be easy to communicate with and Lorna was just that and more! We scheduled a meet over Zoom, so she could get to know me and see if there was any questions I had for the day of the proposal. I enjoyed this as it helped me get to know more about the person who would be working with me on such an important moment. The day of the proposal she kept in contact with me up until we arrived at the location which I appreciated. Lorna even helped calm my nerves assuring me the location was correct as she arrived early to prepare (I never been and was afraid we might be at the wrong building) We absolutely loved the images when we received them! I appreciated she kept me updated on when we would be receiving the images and the pictures were awesome. We loved how she was able to capture our special moment and were so happy to see how great the pictures turned out. I would definitely recommend Lorna for anyone who is looking for a photographer. She was very nice, great communicator, and you can tell she truly cares and was happy for us. Thank you so much Lorna for helping us with our special moment.

Lindsay took the time to set up a call with me to review her THOROUGH questionnaire to ensure she new all the important (and minor) details. On the day of, Lindsay made me and my family feel so comfortable and eased a lot of the anxiety I was having! She knew exactly what to do and I relied on her for direction and reassurance. Lindsay did a phenomenal job of being in 100 places at once in order to get as many shots as possible.

  • Serves Swampscott, MA

Weddings are a culmination of love, life, happiness, family history, style, art, and so much more. My love for photography and the importance it plays in remembering cherished moments spans decades. Photographs are one of the only tangible items you receive after your wedding day (aside from the memories) to help you relive this time for the rest of your days. I will hype you up all day long to make sure you are enjoying every aspect of your day with your partner— that’s truly what it’s all about!

We hired Erin to photograph our winter wedding. I was very nervous about photos as most of them were done indoors due to the weather/limited daylight. I was immediately drawn to Erin after seeing her work at other indoor venues. She can make anything look cool and unique. We were so happy with our engagement shoot with her, so come wedding day last week, we were able to relax, knowing she would do her thing and create photos we loved. And we were right! We've only gotten our previews so far (60 photos within a week - incredible! I'm sure I will have more praises to sing when we get our full album.) and we already know we made the right decision to hire Erin as our photographer. There are photos I didn't even know she took, but she captured such special, candid moments between us on our day which is exactly what I wanted, in addition to getting beautiful posed portraits. She particularly knows how to take amazing detail shots. She took off with my accessories when she arrived on wedding day and I remember thinking "oh, I bet she's doing some amazing shots with them." Yup!! She found the most amazing spots in the hotel to photograph these little details that made our day. Obviously, aesthetics are an important part of hiring any photographer, but Erin does more than just create beautiful images. She immediately puts everyone at ease. I worried it would be awkward having someone capture intimate moments between us, but it was not at all with her there. She hyped us up so much and working with her was so easy. Our friends and family told us they felt the same and have already recommended her to other people! She does an amazing job making people feel comfortable and confident and knows how to direct people without coming across as pushy. Long story short: Erin is warm, talented, and just the person you want with you on wedding day.

Alyse Grimm is the creator behind Things to do in Salem [dot] com. In addition to working in tourism in Salem, MA she is also a wedding photographer with 5+ years/100+ weddings of experience and her work has been published on major wedding platforms. Her knowledge of the north shore combined with her experience makes her a natural fit for your north shore wedding. Alyse's style is photojournalistic with an eye for small details. She is less fond of posed photos. Alyse is open to travel but is giving priority to weddings on the North Shore of MA and to weddings that are non traditional/showcase the individuality of the couple.

Alyse worked with my fiancé and I for our engagement shoot at Beacon Hill. Since we are from out of town (NY) and the shoot took place at the height of Covid, this required some strategic planning on both ends. Alyse was so kind and flexible to work with. She assured us that even if last minute changes due to Covid had to happen, she would work with us. I was very stressed with the entire situation, but Alyse’s calm, reassuring personality put my mind at ease. She has many great ideas, but also listens to your vision and is open to doing shots that you like. We loved the way she captured who we are as a couple, in a place that is special to us. We received many compliments on our save the date cards which featured the photos from our shoot. If you are looking for a photographer who is easygoing, open minded, and knows the MA area well, then Alyse is your girl!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process.

We loved how all of the photos showed everyone’s genuine emotions of the day so well!

Capturing love stories through my lens is not just a job but a profound joy that I cherish with every wedding I photograph.

I believe in always having fun and prioritizing an stress-free lifestyle which translates into my photography style — vibrant, authentic, and joyful.

I’m a storyteller. That’s what I’m here to do - document the story of one of your greatest celebrations. My work is heavily focused on the authentic, unplanned moments. My approach is observational and real, creating images that are genuine representations of you, those you love, and the space and moments you share. I create true-to-life images that will bring you back to some of your sweetest, most treasured moments for years to come. These images aren't just for you, after all - they're for the branches of your family tree that have yet to grow. For the generations to come.

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.
