Herring Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Athens, ME

My name is Dave Herring and I started Herring Photography in 2017. I live in Plaistow, NH with my wife Kalila, our son Davy, and our dogs Snickers and Chipwich. I have a dual background both as a pastor and as a financial analyst, but a few years ago, I bought a camera to document our trip to the UK and I never anticipated how much that would change my life. As a lifelong fan of photography, I became obsessed with learning about how cameras work and how to capture the important and beautiful moments of life.

Herring Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. Their communication style is so easygoing, clear, and comfortable - they really put us at ease throughout the entire process. We felt they brought incredible passion, value, and a hard-working ethic capturing all the special moments of our big day. Herring called us a few days before the wedding to go over what moments and photos were most important for us to capture. This level of care really made us feel they were invested in understanding our vision. On the day itself, Herring was able to make us feel so natural and relaxed as they unobtrusively took candid photos that wonderfully encapsulated the joy of our wedding. We'd highly recommend Herring Photography for your own wedding or special event - their professionalism and dedication to capturing meaningful memories is fantastic value and left us with photos we'll treasure forever.

Tara Tomlinson Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Athens, ME

I have been photographing weddings professionally for 14 years and have reached the phase in my career where I can relax and have fun with my couples knowing that I have the skills and experience to back up my passion and creativity. I split my time between the Gulf Coast of Florida and New England, though I now call Maine home. I am both a dog & cat person - I have a Golden Retriever named Oliver, a lab mix named Juniper, a Maine Coon named Meadow, a Siamese mix named Healy, and a teeny little runt-of-the-litter kitty named Lucie. I am an avid audiobook listener - if I am editing, cleaning, or driving, I most likely have an audiobook going!

Tara Tomlinson Photography was a wonderful partner for our clients' wedding day. Their communication was quick, effective, and transparent throughout the planning process. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - the photos were colorful, joyful, and vibrant, perfectly capturing the energy and spirit of our clients' special day. Tara photographed a wedding at Stone Garden, and she did an amazing job of showcasing the bright and lively atmosphere. If you want epic photos that you'll treasure forever, I highly recommend working with Tara and her team. They will listen closely to your vision and deliver results that will exceed your hopes and expectations!

Revolution Summer Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Athens, ME

Nostalgia drove me into photography at an early age - and lead me into my studies of photojournalism. We all innately know when we're at a critical juncture in our lives. For me, being able to authentically capture, to preserve those moments in a photograph is such a privilege. I know how much it means to me to be able to look back and say 'this is how things actually happened.' There is beauty in those truths. The kind of folks I work with share that appreciation.

Awarded Best of Zola
Corey was awesome to work with, from the first zoom call when we were in our planning stages all the way through the wedding reception! The photos are nothing short of spectacular! We were looking for a photographer who would take a lot of candid shots and capture special moments that way, which worked perfectly with Corey’s photography style. He also got the pictures back to us incredibly fast. We truly cannot recommend Corey (Revolution Summer Photography) enough!

  • Serves Athens, ME

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?

Kaitlin Toto Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Athens, ME

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
Kaitlin is amazing to work with. As a photographer who has done weddings myself, I had high standards and specific requests that weeded out a lot of people during my search. Kaitlin immediately stood out to me as someone with the ability to capture the essence of a couple. As I browsed her galleries I felt like I knew the couples and their stories by the time I was done. My wife and I are very introverted, shy, and not used to being the center of attention — let alone in front of a camera. After consulting with Kaitlin it was even more clear that she was the perfect photographer for us. Kaitlin listened to our requests, asked us questions to get a better understanding of what sort of coverage we’d like, and checked in multiple times leading up to the wedding day to go over plans. On the day of, Kaitlin was incredible. She set her flash units up perfectly to give a beautiful sense of lighting to our indoor pictures. Kaitlin was quick and professional with our family formals without feeling like she was rushing anyone. We love our newlywed portraits, largely due to how natural it felt to work with her—again this was huge for us as two people who are a bit camera shy. Our reception photos are equally beautiful, she captured meaningful candid moments without feeling like she was standing between us and the moments happening around us. If you’re like my wife and me and aren’t used to being on camera, I would 100% recommend booking a practice session with Kaitlin either for engagement photos or couples’ photos. As a photographer I’m used to being behind the camera and not in front of it. She helped us feel comfortable and it also helped her see how we interact together as a couple. At no point did we feel like Kaitlin was commandeering our schedule to check off boxes on a shot-list. She was seamlessly integrated everything. Genuinely, I cannot recommend Kaitlin enough. Working with her is like having a best friend there take your wedding photos.

What if your photos actually looked and felt like you? Picture yourself 10 years from now on your wedding anniversary looking back at your wedding album with tears welling up in your eyes as you relive your day. Your wedding should not feel like a performance. Let go of boring wedding traditions, think outside of the box and create something unique that has never been done before. Whatever the perfect day looks like for you, why shouldn’t that be your wedding day? I am more than your wedding photographer, I am your guide, biggest fan, and the curator of your love story, I will also be the one tearing up from behind my lens.

We are so lucky to have had Danielle photograph our wedding! She is the BEST, so creative & talented, and makes you feel so comfortable. We have gotten countless compliments saying how professional and amazing she is, and we couldn’t agree more. We cannot wait to see all of our wedding photos come back and relive our special day all over again. We are so grateful for Danielle’s professionalism and artistry. We truly cannot recommend her enough!

I am SO excited that you stumbled upon my work! I shoot weddings all across the Florida & New England! Capturing raw, true emotions as they happen is what I’m all about. I want to capture it all on your big day. From the moments of you putting your dress to the tears running down your face as you read your vows to each other. To the first kiss and “OMG you’re my spouse now!!” feels. To the unexpected Taco Bell run you make after the ceremony or your grandparents getting down on the dance floor. Being able to grab the moments for you to hold to forever, is such a rewarding humbling job for me.

Natural, documentary, photojournalistic. Real, raw, candid. We’re not going for any stiff prom poses here. I like to capture the day as it is and to document it as it unfolds. I never want to force anything, but I step in and direct where needed. Being in front of the camera isn’t my favorite thing either. I will be here to guide you and prompt you the whole way, I promise.

Jenna was the absolute best decision we made for our wedding! We discovered her for our proposal in Maine and she did an amazing job so we decided to use her for our wedding in Austin! She put us at ease immediately and she was extremely prepared! On the day of the wedding she CRUSHED it! She knew exactly where and when to take photos and it’s like she knew exactly what the sun was going to do! She wrangled our two large families expertly and put up with some family members that don’t listen very well! She perfectly captured our wedding day and night! So much so that we were on the beach in Hawaii looking at our sneak peek photos rather than the humpback whales!! If you’re looking for someone to capture all of the special moments in your life, I highly recommend using Jenna!

Hi, I’m Julie! I’ve been photographing weddings for about ten years now (holy cow, do I feel old!), starting with photographing friends' weddings and quickly falling in love with the work. While I adore capturing gorgeous portraits of the bride and groom and the quiet (and sometimes chaotic!), beautiful moments during a wedding/elopement/engagement session, those ridiculous candid moments (like when a stranger offers you a fry on the boardwalk during your bridesmaid photos) truly make your day uniquely yours. I'd absolutely describe my style as a mixture of classic, artistic and photojournalism, but my heart lies in capturing candid moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are BEYOND thrilled that we chose Julie to capture our wedding. My wife and I had a destination wedding in Kennebunkport, Maine so choosing vendors was really just based on doing our own research and combing through reviews. From start to finish, everything with Julie was incredible. She really understood what we wanted and that aligned perfectly with her vibrant and candid style. She was so efficient on the day of the wedding as well so we were able to enjoy what we put together. She truly has an amazing eye, book her!

I’ve been making pictures since I was 12. My parents gave me an ancient 35mm Konica Autoreflex camera, told me to get after it, and the rest, as they say, is history. My role as a photographer is to capture the rare, vulnerable, epic, extraordinary, and wonderfully ordinary moments of life, as well as the beautiful details in between. I strive to make images that come from the heart and will tell your story for years to come. Also, I might cry at your wedding. It happens.

Jo hiked all the way from Mt. Washington for our sunset session and then made the trek back. Her deep appreciation for nature and her artistic vision are reflected in every photo we received, and we love each one. Jo made us feel so comfortable and captured our family's essence perfectly.

Our first kiss was on the beach, under a star-filled sky, on my favorite island, only home to shells, bioluminescent creatures, and wild horses. Soon after, as two very young humans (21 and 23), we were married. As newlyweds we set off on an adventure, kayaking from Maine to Key West. On that trip, we realized how much we valued spending all our time together and being in charge of our schedule. This business is how we live out that dream.

Bethany and Dan are always one of our favorite photography duos to recommend! They excel at capturing the fun of a couple's wedding day - those moments of joy when guests and the newlyweds are all sharing in the excitement of such a special day. Going through their albums, you can always relive the emotions of the day - they're more than beautiful images - they have a sense of life infused all along the way. We've experienced firsthand how at-ease they make couples feel, and they're always willing to take some risks and experiment with more than just your typical wedding photos - often leading to the most frame worthy images of all!

I’m a New Hampshire wedding photographer, who specializes in candid, natural wedding photography, serving all of New England for over fifteen years. Almost all of my couples come to me saying that they feel weird in front of the camera and worried about how their photos will turn out. But of course they want those gorgeous, Pinterest-worthy shots! My laid-back attitude will help put you at ease, helping your true personalities shine through (with simple and fun guidance for the posed photos). And my quiet and calm nature makes it easy for me to blend into the background, to get tons of candid photos that you will make you laugh and cry.

Working with Brett was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We were looking for casual candids and photos that looked effortless, something we thought we would be difficult to achieve because we are “unphotogenic”. Not only did Brett go above and beyond, we were absolutely astounded by how incredible our photos came out. Previews came the next day and throughout the week after our wedding and we were speechless! Everyone loved our photos, but multiple family members mentioned that the collection perfectly reflected the vibe of the day and setting. We will cherish our wedding photos forever - thank you Brett!!

I'm based in Boston, MA but I'm always more than happy to travel anywhere your adventure takes you. My work has brought me as far as Tokyo and I'm so ready to explore more new places! In my down time I love to surf, paint, go to concerts, and watch horror movies. I'm full of useless astrology facts and I always have extra snacks with me.

My husband and I are so lucky that we found Chrissy as our photographer. We wanted someone who would bring a unique approach to taking photos and be able to capture special moments that would happen during our wedding, both big and small. Chrissy checks the boxes for both. Not only is she extremely talented, but she also has an amazing eye for detail. She is also very easy to work with, and makes us both feel comfortable to be ourselves. I will admit I was a little nervous before our engagement photoshoot, but after meeting Chrissy, I immediately felt at ease and had so much fun. She also photographed our revised "micro-wedding" in our backyard last October, and was very flexible and accommodating in changing plans. We're looking forward to having her capture our bigger wedding once this pandemic is over, because we know the quality she delivers every time and she is just such a pleasure to work with. We can't recommend her enough!

Hi there! I'm Nia, a wedding and elopement photographer based in Boston, MA but obsessed with traveling. I love the days when I stumble upon a new landscape, learn something new from a stranger or aimlessly drive until I end up somewhere decent. This is why I love storytelling. My favorite stories to tell are by far the love shared between two people. Storytelling and making a moment last is what drew me to photography. Documenting your day in an honest, soulful way that shows who you are is what I strive for.

Awarded Best of Zola
We recently had the pleasure of working with Nia for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. From the moment we met her, her easy-going nature put us at ease. She made us feel comfortable and genuinely connected with us. We are both somewhat camera shy and she made the entire process from our engagement photos to our wedding SO fun. We wanted our event captured candidly and she truly did that. The turnaround time for our sneak peak photos was impressively fast and they exceeded our expectations. Each photo beautifully captured the emotions of the day, and we loved that they felt authentic and true to us. If you're looking for a photographer who is personable, communicative, and delivers stunning work, we wholeheartedly recommend Nia.

I'm a Boston based weddings & elopement photojournalist serving New England & beyond. My style is authentic, nostalgic, and a calculated blend of soft and romantic + moody and edgy. I think minimalism is lazy and I want you to look at my work and feel something. My goal is to make you feel so present that you forget I have a camera in my hand while I’m photographing you. I believe it’s my job to remind you of how beautiful and fleeting life is. My hope is that after our session is over, my work turns into some of your most cherished memories decorating your home and your hearts.

My fiance and I had a great experience working with Caroline for our engagement photo mini session! I was amazed at how many moments she was able to capture in a short 20 minute session. The edited photos are beautiful- the romantic style is just perfect. We almost didn't do engagement photos, but I'm so glad that we had Caroline capture this exciting time. Plus her easygoing personality meant we had fun doing it!

Hey there! I’m Chris, and I’m stoked to be part of your wedding journey. My goal is to help make your day everything you’ve dreamed of. I'll even bring some dog treats. You can count on me to keep things stress-free—no “photographer attitude” here. If the timeline gets off track, I’ll help get it back on schedule so you can enjoy your meal. Based in Boston, I love traveling for weddings, especially intimate gatherings of 100-150 guests. I’m a fan of venues like barns, ski resorts, and castles. Capturing vibrant, cinematic images is my passion, and I focus on true-to-life editing—no overexposed skies or unnatural skin tones!

Chris was such a joy to work with! From our very first meeting before even hiring him, he really spent the time to talk through what our vision was and how we wanted our day to be captured. He was a great support every step of the way for planning as well as on the big day! In addition to being a great listener, Chris has great suggestions on how to plan for photos based on his extensive experience (angles, timing, group shots). Our wedding was a large one, so Chris hired a fantastic second lead photographer and several other photographers throughout the day so our event was seamlessly captured! Another important note - all of our family and other vendors (makeup artists, planners, etc) commented on how great it was to work with Chris, and were excited to work with him on future events - I think this is such an important quality for a photographer, and definitely appreciated how professional and friendly Chris was with EVERYONE! He kept the day moving as it should and captured some unbelievable shots that I revisit on probably a daily basis :) I honestly cannot recommend Chris enough - from his genuine care and support for you through the planning and important day, to the absolutely stunning product he delivers. Thank you Chris for everything!!

From NY to TX, then back again... I started my photography adventure 10 years ago in a small studio in upstate, New York. Since then, I've traveled across the country, taking pictures the entire time. I've captured a lifetime of memories in pictures, and now, I hope I can do the same for you! I specialize in weddings and portraiture, with experience in real estate photography as well! I love helping my customers make memories to cherish for years to come. When I'm not taking pictures, I am working as a nurse and dreaming of the days when I can put my toes in the sand with my nieces in Cape Cod.

I take an authentic and cinematic approach to wedding photography. I love to watch life unfold and seek to capture the quiet moments of the day; the moments that slip past in an instant but are the ones that you want to remember forever. I am passionate about creating timeless and lasting photographs for you and your family.

Peter is the best!!! We first met Peter while he was shooting a promotional video for Medomak Family Camp in Washington, Maine, and that video was gorgeous, so when we needed a photographer for our elopement in Acadia, Peter was the obvious choice. My husband and I had never taken professional pictures before, but Peter made us feel so comfortable and at ease through the whole process. He guided us through each location and pose suggestion like he had a great vision, and when we got the pictures back, we knew he definitely did! Our pictures were beautifully and skillfully edited and we will cherish them literally forever. Thank you, Peter!!!

Thank you for taking an interest in my work and considering me to be your Wedding Photographer! I'm technically based in Brooklyn, NY but have the unique situation of growing up in Maine. I then spent a decade in New Orleans where I first began my photography journey and moved up to NYC to further pursue it. I'm fortunate enough to have several places to call home and while I work a great deal in the New England & the tri-state area, I'm proud to announce that I've accepted work at an international level this year. Traveling is one of my other great passions, along with music, so it's a perfect fit.

A simple search on the wedding app led us to Karl, so we started with some engagement photos. He immediately won us over with his vibe, skill and ability to make awkward photoshoots (for me) relaxing and fun! Fast forward to our wedding, Karl continued to impress. I sent him a few inspo photos focusing on editorial-style shots and boy did he deliver! He was excellent at directing poses (BIG plus) as well as capturing those precious candids. He even flexed some drone footage and went above and beyond with a surprise reel! In addition, it's important to remember that you spend most of your wedding day with your photographer, so make sure you like them! Karl was a calm, welcoming energy all day, we even shared some laughs and inside jokes. He truly became a friend to us and our wedding party! We are so happy with our photos and this hire, we would highly recommend Karl to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

My name is Angie and I want to capture your story. My photography is honest and reflects your awesome, quirky and unique personalities. Prepare to experience an authentic and artistic reflection of your wedding, from its quiet, tender moments to its loud joyous ones. My images show the genuine connections between you and your closest friends and family.

Awarded Best of Zola
As much as Angie's photos speak for themselves, I've got a word or two to say myself: This photographer is THE ONE to capture your big day! We were initially drawn to the natural yet electric feel of Angie's work. The joy of her subjects feels very real -- because it is. Angie is there to capture real joy and real beauty and real love, not to force it through posing or a trick of the light. Her passion is for people and for love itself, and that's what makes her work second to none! Like I wrote above: these stunning shots very much speak for themselves (and they say "joy," "love," "BLISS!" and everything else we experienced on our wedding day) But Angie's talent isn't the only reason to hire her. She is a kind professional with a calming presence and a "sixth sense" for when & where to capture the perfect shot. She's got an artist's eye, and sought out unique locations & lighting to make the most out of our photoshoot around the MASS MoCA campus. (Check out that silhouette of our profiles! A spontaneous idea of hers ;) ) While we were still in the planning stage, Angie took the time to regularly check in with us and prepare. Whenever we were on the phone with her, it felt like she was in the room with us! Her friendliness and passion came through in our conversations, and we felt relieved knowing that we wouldn't have to worry about how we might "get along" with our photographer on our wedding day. Once Angie arrived on the day-of, everything felt natural. Throughout the day & evening, we never felt "overwhelmed" by her presence, yet she was always there to snap the most animated moments. And not just our most animated moments -- the photos of our guests are so charged with emotion, we can hear & feel them! Our favorite part of going through our wedding album has been seeing the joy on our guests' faces, all captured by Angie. Whenever we want to relive that night -- or live a new part of it that we didn't get to see -- our experience and all of our guests' unique experiences are just a few clicks away. I knew her photos would be beautiful, but I didn't anticipate this....totally immersive quality. Each shot is like a portal straight back to the moment it captures. These photos are ALIVE, and we are so grateful! Thank you, Angie, for all of the perfect lil picture-portals 333

Kansla Photography (Natalie) was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the start, her communication was fast, flexible, and highly effective, making the planning process a breeze. The quality of her work was exceptional - they captured the day with a confident, special touch that left us feeling so grateful. Natalie went above and beyond to help coordinate our small wedding party right before the ceremony, and she was incredibly patient and kind with both sides of our somewhat chaotic family members and groups! Throughout the entire planning process, Natalie was a true partner, listening to our needs and making sure my fiance and I were the top priority. We couldn't recommend her more highly for any couple looking for a talented, personable photography team to bring their wedding vision to life. Lastly, Natalie has extremely competitive prices for the wedding industry. Not only did she travel across the entire country for our big day, her travel pricing was more competitive than anyone I could find locally in Seattle and the quality of her work was even higher than the local options I found.
