I can't believe how great it was to have Kristin do our wedding pictures! (And that I was this late…read morewith our review). I met her at LoveSick Expo and immediately liked her. She's very personable and it was soo easy to have her take pictures. We eloped and did our pictures separately and I was worried there'd be no emotion and it'd look fake. Instead, it was the most comfy I've ever been with a virtual stranger. Kristin is warm, engaging, and so enthusiastic. We were just racking our brains to figure out what other photo shoots she could do for us! The pictures looked incredible and it took less than 3 hours to get them back. Even my husband's mother was shocked at how wonderful they turned out, even without being photoshopped. We were outside, but somehow the lighting was fantastic. This is probably the best choice I could have made.

We could not be happier with our wedding photos even with the last-minute switch from outdoor to indoor formals (thanks, weather). She loosened us up and captured intimate details without making us feeling like we were under a microscope. Kristin's confidence, spunk, and and seamless planning allowed us to relax and enjoy our time rather than stressing that each shot was captured or that the right family members were included. Without a doubt, our best vendor decision of the wedding was going with her.

Its hard for me to say enough good things about Leah. First of all, her photography is stunning. I…read morehave worked with several (20+) top photographers over my life, around the world, and she is easily one of the best. She has a great eye! Beyond her stunning work, she is a such a pleasure to work with; quick to reply in correspondence and very helpful in getting you information that will help with other elements of your big day (she kindly introduced me to my makeup artist). When she arrived to the hotel to do our pre-City Hall ceremony shots, she jumped right in to helping me get the best shots...in some ways, she was more helpful than my family who was there to help! Leah was also very generous with her time; she traveled with us to 3 separate locations to get a diversity of shots. Thank you so much, Leah...truly. You really made one of the best days of my life even better!

Melissa photographed our family after my baby was born and did an amazing job. Seriously, she…read moresomehow captured two gawky adults as beautiful parents to a beautiful baby (I may be biased but I think the baby is adorable all the time). We look like ourselves! Just much better versions of ourselves, if that makes sense. Melissa was professional but mellow and put us all at ease. Even the baby was happy the whole time. I turn into a neurotic mess when my photo is taken, so it was reassuring to get an email before the photo shoot with suggestions for what to wear and how to style ourselves. She also asked us if there was anything we wanted touched up a little in the final shots, such that the raging zit I had at the time of the shoot is concealed (did I mention I get all stressed out about being photographed?!). We got a link to our photos on her very easy to use website and they really do look great. Email me if you want to see the link so you can get a flavor for her style - candid, not posed. I got a few shots breastfeeding, too, and she did an excellent job sensitively capturing this intimate, treasured exchange between me and my daughter. She also set up a separate link for those shots so I don't further embarrass my mother with my breastfeeding grandstanding. I recommend Melissa highly and wish she'd shot our wedding and all the other neurotic photo shoot moments I've had in my life. She's fabulous!!!!!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Lauren Page Wadsworth. From the moment we met her,…read morewe knew we wanted to work with her. It was important for us to find a photographer who was an artist, willing to try new techniques and push boundaries, and Lauren's work certainly reflected that. We hired Lauren and her partner for our Western Massachusetts wedding. We wanted someone who was chill and wouldn't stress us out. That's exactly what we got. She and her partner were clever shadows all day -- floating from room to room, sneakily setting up beautiful shots with rings and flowers, yet stopping to poke us whenever they saw an opportunity for an interesting shot. I felt completely at ease with her, and I felt that her photographs perfectly captured the story of our day. We had a space-themed wedding, and it was our dream to have some night photography done (which is typically not an easy feat.) Lauren took note of our wishes, and surprised us with not one but dozens of gorgeous shots of the night sky dotted with stars, complete with Milky Way bands. The only problem we have is figuring out which of her beautiful shots to get framed. I highly recommend LPW if you're looking for a laid-back photographer who will find and capture the art in your wedding day.

Lauren found perfect spots around the hotel to take portraits while also capturing the beauty of the colonial setting as well. At one point there were up to 15 of us (including young children) who she needed to photograph, and she did it effortlessly and was very organized. Lauren is so professional, calming and easy to work with! I would HIGHLY recommend using her for any event, especially a wedding.

Then I stumbled across Sara's photoblog. It was obvious that she had talent. From her blog it appeared that she'd been a professional photographer for several years shooting primarily child/maternity/family sessions and was only recently breaking into shooting weddings. At the time she'd only shot one or two weddings but the results were fantastic. So I shot her an email to see about an engagement shoot. Not only did the photos for the engagement shoot turn out great but my fiance and I both felt very comfortable with her. She's sarcastic and has a great sense of humor like us so we were immediately at ease, and it shows in the photos. She was great with the turn around time, basically had them completely touched up and edited in the exact time she'd stated it would take. Since then she's done some more weddings and the photos posted on her website/photo blog demonstrate consistent high quality talent. Once we received our digital proofs we immediately decided we were going to sign on with her for the wedding. Her prices are more than reasonable, she's got boat loads of talent and you feel like you can be yourself while she snaps away. Highly recommend.

Beautiful, captured them perfectly, while blending in the cool backgrounds in Southie. Then, she came and took some (pre) engagement shots of my now husband and I and our puppies. We loved them so much, so we called to see if she was available for our wedding and thankfully she was! Everyone who sees our photos loves them, and immediately asks who the photographer was, and we happily pass on her info! I hope she gets tons of business from our referral because we know what a great job she does! She was great getting shots of our dogs, and was always open to suggestions for shot ideas. It can be awkward getting your photo taken, but Lindsey was great at making sure we were comfortable! You can also check out her blog, http://lindseylight.bigfolioblog.com/

My fiance described it best, "she completely exceeded any expectations we had!" Highly recommend!

I worked with Jill after reading glowing reviews online, particularly TheKnot.com. Our initial…read morephone call was stellar, and my husband and I felt reassured we were making the right decision. Who showed up to our wedding day was a woman with a very poor attitude, which was noted by our vendors as well as our wedding party. Jill's photos are nice, but nothing spectacular. She provided the same photo with many different filters which felt like a waste. Many of our photos with family members look very awkward due to placement, and large amounts of space between people. Jill always seemed to have something going on, which she absolutely brought with her to work. Rather unfortunate as someone who promises to capture the best day of your life, while radiating negativity and a piss poor mood. I was unfortunately pressured by Jill to write a stellar review prior to receiving our photos. She made me feel terrible stating that her business was in need of reviews as business had been slow. Super unprofessional, and makes you wonder how many of the 4-5 star reviews are actually accurate. Given that she still had ALL of our wedding photos, I felt that I had no choice. I tried to side step and wait until we had our actual photos but she basically harassed us and guilted us in to it. Jill should probably consider photographing something besides weddings, perhaps nature or animals. Feel free to roll the dice and give her a try, but hiring Jill as our photographer was single handedly the worst decision we made regarding our wedding. Now we are forced to re-visit this terrible experience every time we look at our photos. We honestly wish we had my brother-in-law who is a amateur photographer capture our day. With absolutely no experience, he would have done a better job.

We reached out to her because of her amazing reviews on The Knot and now we understand why everyone has had a five star experience with her. Leading up to the wedding she made sure we got every picture we could think of and suggested a few more we never would have thought of that we love. The morning of the wedding she covered everything from candids in the hotel room getting ready to the first look to the ceremony and reception. Her and her team really captured the whole day and night perfectly without feeling intrusive - I don't know how they did it. Jill has such a gift for capturing your most cherished moments. My husband and I would highly recommend her!

When my brother and his fiancee experienced one too many unbelievable setbacks with their impending…read morewedding, I stepped in to help manage it and I found Alex at the last minute (hardly two weeks before the wedding). From the very beginning and through the day itself, she never ceased to be helpful, friendly, flexible and good-natured about the craziness of the situation. We hired her to shoot just the ceremony, and it was supposed to be outdoors; but the day dawned to torrential downpours and it had to be moved inside. Alex adapted wonderfully and took some absolutely stunning shots--and when the rain let up a bit after the ceremony, we still got to have some natural light shots outside the building. Her ability to go from one setting to another with no warning was so appreciated. More important than anything else, though, my new sister in law (like most of us) tends to not like photos of herself and was very apprehensive about having a photographer at all. But she LOVES Alex's work from her wedding day. There is one photo from the ceremony of my sister in law's face during the vows that literally brought tears to my eyes when I saw it the first time--as my mom said when she saw it, "It's like you're looking right into her soul". All the aspects of the day that Alex shot, from the bride and groom to the bottles of champagne to the hand-made signs, have been captured with such loving detail. They will be treasured for years and years. While she's an experienced photographer, Alex is still relatively new to the wedding scene; but if she hadn't told me herself, I never would have guessed. For her technical skill, kindness, and flexibility (on everything from budget to lighting), I couldn't recommend working with Alex more highly.

I cannot imagine a better wedding photographer than Alex. She is incredibly friendly, genuine and…read moreis just a wonderful person to be around, which is especially welcome on a wedding day. It doesn't exactly hurt that her photographs are stunning and provide a real sense of an event. After the guests at our wedding saw her photographs so many of them indpendently told me how much her shots captured the emotions and feeling of the day. Her website says that she is a photographic storyteller and that is completely true, her photographs of our wedding are not only beautiful but they are emotionally transportive - somehow looking at them brings my (now) wife and I back to that day in an almost physical way. Her pictures are exactly what we were looking for and we could not be happier! Alex came down to Washington D.C. for our engagement shoot and we had the best time with her. Getting to spend a day focused on taking photographs, going to places you love and doing things you enjoy as a couple is great in and of itself, but doing that in the middle of planning a wedding allows you take a step back and remember all the wonderful reasons you're getting married in the first place. Alex got my wife and I used to having someone take our picture, and we became very comfortable with her. This made all of our wedding pictures, and many of our engagement shoot pictures, feel so personal because we felt so comfortable with her. If Alex lived in D.C. I would definitely try to be friends with her - she's awesome. On the day of the wedding she could not have been more helpful - she went through the entire house where we were having the wedding and took stock of where everything was. When I couldn't find a stack of photographs and asked a room full of the bridal party if anyone had seen them Alex piped up (I didn't even realize she was there) and led me to exactly where they were. That was just one of the many great moments she provided on the best day of my life, and I will forever be grateful and feel very lucky to have had her as our wedding photographer.
