My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Lisa for our wedding photography. We searched long and hard for a photographer that would fit the type of photography style we wanted and seriously struggled to find anyone we liked. I started to lose hope but stumbled upon Lisa through wedding wire. Thank goodness!! What sealed the deal for us was speaking with Lisa over the phone, reading her blog and reviewing her website. Once you've done your research, you will quickly realize how passionate she is about her work. Her passion and dedication to her job truly shines through in all of her work. Lisa not only met our expectations but surpassed them. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a photographer. She will capture moments of your day that you did not even know existed. read more

I was looking for someone to take my engagement photos and I emailed 4-5 photographers. At the end I picked Lisa because she was very responsive, very reasonable price and I also get to keep all my pictures files! She is a very devoted photographer who really love what she is doing. I really appreciate her passion in photography. Whenever I have questions or need suggestions, she would reply very quickly. We did a 4-hour session for a very reasonable price. We got a lot of great pictures, enough to filled our wedding album which is 100+ pages (and more than 1 picture per page!). Overall we are just extremely happy with our session and the pictures that came out. read more

Hiring Lisa to photograph our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. From the first time I saw her work, I knew she'd do a wonderful job documenting our day. From the first time we spoke, Lisa was professional, friendly and attentive. We met with her several times before the wedding, both so we could get to know each other and so she could get a feeling for what we envisioned on the wedding day. Before the event, we received a detailed schedule of how Lisa's time would be spent photographing along with specific notes of what photos we wanted. Lisa was extremely thoughtful and organized in making sure she was prepared to provide us with exactly what we wanted. On the big day, Lisa was amazing. Providing direction when the staged photos called for it and otherwise doing a great job of staying in the background while capturing wonderful moments. When we got our photos back from Lisa we were thrilled. They're a wonderful perspective on our day and as the bride, it's great to see things caught on film that you didn't see on the day. Finally, the thing that perhaps impressed me the most with Lisa's work, beyond her amazing talent, is the professional and efficient way she provides access to her work. When the photos were ready we received notice that we could view them online, as well as in a slideshow she created and in her blog post. This made sharing the images with family and friends so easy. A few days later we received a customized DVD (complete with a beautiful jewel case and DVD label) that had our web and print images on it for our use. It's wonderful to have access to all our photos in an easy to use manner. Ultimately- Lisa Rigby was a perfect choice for us. A wonderful person, exceptional photographer and true professional. Book her if you can!! read more

Holy cow. Lisa Rigby is an incredibly talented human being. Her photos are like great novels in that they're comprised of really beautiful, intimate moments that you'd miss if she wasn't there to document them. I hired Lisa for my wedding party after spending 3 or 4 hours online searching for a portfolio that resonated with me. I was picky because I'm a designer and an artist. I wanted a photographer who had great chops but also a great sensibility. Lisa has plenty of both and brings a really unique, creative perspective-leveraging light to create cool compositions and to add extra drama. On top of that, she's a really nice person who's organized, easy to work with, and invisible when it comes time to document an event. I'm guessing that's why her photos are so wonderful (people are just being themselves). Thank you Lisa for doing such an amazing job at our party. I feel so lucky to have that memory documented through your art! read more

I just wanted to update this review... Lisa shot our wedding a couple of weeks ago and did a FANTASTIC job. She really is the best wedding photographer in Boston. read more

Lisa shot our engagement photos and wedding photos in provincetown in cape cod. It's hard to explain how good she is. She put us at ease, and we felt like she was really part of our team. She captured the wedding in the way we experienced it and gave great direction. Highly recommend her. read more

Lisa's photography is very "in the moment". Not only is she a joy to work with, but the quality and consistency of her work is priceless.

When my then-fiance and I were searching for photographers for our summer wedding in Boston, we had to do it from Australia and were limited at first to searching through dozens and dozens of websites (seriously, at least 50!). When we came across Lisa's blog, we thought there might be something special there.... We knew we wanted two things: (1) beautifully colored and captured images that were emotional as well as elegant and natural and (2) a photographer with a great personality who we could enjoy being around. After meeting with a few photographers, we walked out of our first meeting with Lisa and knew we had found the perfect combination of both! Not only was Lisa easy to work with and incredibly prompt in responding to emails and inquiries, she was a lovely person to just chat with and we really felt like she wanted to get to know our story before photographing our big day. We were really looking forward to enjoying her company, but on the wedding day we hardly even knew she was there! She was a fly on the wall who managed to catch amazing, emotional, natural, and fluid images without ever being intrusive in any way. I only remember spotting her a couple of times during the night, yet she was always there for every big moment and captured the most gorgeous images. I highly recommend Lisa Rigby wholeheartedly to anyone looking for wedding photography. She is a professional, efficient, and lovely person, with an incredible photographic eye and talent that is absolutely incomparable. read more

Lisa captured our wedding this past August at Moody Mountain Farm in New Hampshire. She was a true professional from out first contact email until we received the final prints. Her confidence in her work, organization and down to earth presence brought a sense of calm and joy to what has the potential to be a chaotic process of finding a wedding photographer. Honestly, her work speaks for itself and we were hooked when saw the care she took to create context and compose wedding portfolios more like photo essays than the sometimes overly posed and touched up wedding photos that you can find all over the web. We love our pictures and have gotten so many compliments on them! We're happy we went with Lisa-- her work is gorgeous and she's really easy to work with and we would recommend her to anyone. During our wedding Lisa actually took a little tumble and sprained her ankle but was really reasonable and fair with us when we reviewed how her injury impacted her ability to capture our wedding day. It meant a lot to us that she was willing to work with us and we have nothing but good feelings about our experience with Lisa! read more

Working with Lisa for our wedding photography was a wonderful experience. Most importantly, the photos are amazing. From the formal portraits (where everyone looks relaxed and natural), to the documentation of our ceremony, to the candids throughout the evening - the composition and use of light are phenomenal. Lisa also has a great eye - she captured so many delightful little 'moments' throughout the day. You and your family will love your photos. You will also enjoy working with Lisa. She's professional, organized, and a great relaxed presence on the day. She somehow captures everything, but is never obtrusive or distracting. My husband and I had great luck with wedding vendors, but hands down, hiring Lisa Rigby was the best decision we made for the wedding. read more

I only gave her a one because you can't rate 0/ We have not one decent photo from my daughter's wedding. She took them into the sun never posed a shot. She missed important people. Four years later, I am still seething. You can never recapture that day. Buyer beware! read more

We loved working with Lisa for our wedding in October. She is incredible and the quality of the work was awesome. We found her website through The Knot early on, and knew right away that we wanted her for our wedding. We got exactly what we wanted--the best wedding pictures ever! We did not do engagement photos, only wedding pictures. Loved working with her! read more

"Perfect." For us, there is really no other way to describe our experience working with Lisa! From the beginning she was in tune with our hopes and wishes. Our tiny civil ceremony in Cambridge city hall wouldn't be a problem: she had covered an even smaller event before. We wondered out loud if it might be fun for the wedding party (such as it was) to travel to the reception on the T, in full regalia, and she was enthusiastic. We hoped for a photojournalistic bent, for the benefit of our friends and relatives scattered across the globe who could not attend, and Lisa delivered! Somehow despite our only having Lisa there with no backup photographer, and despite all the walking and traveling, Lisa seemed to catch all of the crucial moments: the biggest laugh, the tenderest moment, even the ironic humor (c.f. traveling on the T). Moreover, we worried whether our rather spare schedule would provide enough photographic material, but Lisa definitely proved us wrong! Plus, her movement was mysterious, almost magical. Sure, we all knew she was somewhere nearby, but afterwards when we saw the pictures we were constantly surprised by where she actually had been. On the wedding day I often kept thinking wistfully "this would make a great picture" only to discover afterwards that Lisa had already transported herself to my side to capture just that moment! This was a sentiment echoed by others in our wedding party: Lisa seemed to catch all the moments they remembered, and more. Even the posed shots were well-directed and less "posed" than usual, if you know what I mean. The finalized photos were just superb, far better than we had hoped for, and we had interviewed many photographers and looked at innumerable portfolios. Like the shoot itself, the whole portfolio just felt lovingly created, as if Lisa had been a member of our own family. I remember receiving the pictures first in the form of an online slideshow and watching the show over and over again, as if I were reliving that happy day. We even loved the music, and we didn't even choose it: on top of everything else, Lisa had managed to find "our" song for us (we didn't have one before)! Lisa was never pushy in regards to prints and albums and the like, which was great since we wanted to handle that ourselves. If we decide to do an album in the future, we won't hesitate to have Lisa design it for us. She did create that online slideshow mentioned above, and as you know she really delivered. And not only that, everyone we showed it to fell in love with it too, saying that they really felt like they had been there and experienced the same emotions. And that's what it's all about! Like everything involved with a wedding, choosing a photographer is one of those nail-biters many couples have to make. Plus even the best photographer can have an off day. Simply put: we could not have been happier with our choice. She was perfect. Thanks Lisa! P.S. Like many people here I've used Yelp for years but have never been motivated enough to write my own reviews. This is my first. Hopefully that gives you some idea of how wonderful Lisa was! read more
