Athol, MA
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,299

It all started with COVID-19—not fully, but pretty much. Before I found my passion for weddings, It was during these intimate ceremonies that I realized wedding photography was what I was truly meant to do. But I’m going to let you in on something I’ve never really shared before—I don't like my wedding photos. I didn't connect with my wedding photographer, I went with the cheaper option and it totally shows in my pictures. That’s why connecting with you, your fiancé, your family, and your friends is so important to me.

We cannot thank Lauryn enough for making our wedding at Harrington Farm unforgettable! As our event specialist, she was with us every step of the way, always just a phone call or email away. When the rain started the moment I got to the altar, Lauryn didn’t hesitate—she ran to get umbrellas for us and our parents, ensuring we stayed dry during such an important moment. Her quick thinking and preparedness in that unexpected situation really highlighted her dedication and care. Throughout the entire process, Lauryn’s communication and attention to detail were remarkable. She had everything we could possibly need on hand during the wedding, prepared for any potential emergency. Thanks to her, our day ran smoothly, and we could relax and enjoy every moment. We highly recommend Lauryn to any couple looking for an organized, thoughtful, and professional event specialist. She truly made our wedding day perfect!

Owner and lead photographer Rob has been part of the wedding industry since 2007, photographing weddings throughout New England. His goal is to capture the details and special moments that couples want to remember for the rest of their lives.

Rob and Rachel made the process of working together very easy and fun. As someone who does not like having her picture taken, I was nervous. They did a wonderful job at easing my nerves and making me feel more comfortable being photographed. That began with our engagement pictures. I am so grateful that those pictures were included in our wedding package. They offer a variety of packages to chose from for all budgets. They are masters behind the camera but also true professionals. They arrived on time, maintained a friendly and approachable demeanor and made us feel at ease. Rob even helped the groomsmen with their boutonnieres and pocket squares. They listened to our ideas and incorporated them into the shoot. I received all of the photographs on a beautiful, personalized flash drive. The photos are gorgeous! I also included a wedding album that is beautiful. I am so thankful I chose Reiman Photography for my wedding. I highly recommend them!

  • Serves Athol, MA

Curating timeless memories with the beauty God gave us. Sustainably-focused, intentional design for intimate experiences. We offer full planning and design, month of coordination plus, and content creation through our Moments by The Traveling Tee Events division.

Having Steph & Mali coordinate my wedding allowed me to be present in every way possible. I can tell you every song that played and every single song I missed at my wedding. If I missed a song, it was because it was time to cut the cake or do the garter toss. In fact, the morning of my wedding, I was laying on the couch with my bridesmaids and a facemask until 10am. How many brides can say that? We hired Steph because I knew I couldn't do it all myself (wrangling together our Mexican and American families). She went out of her way to recommend our DJ and cake and absolutely knocked it out of the ballpark. She toured our venue and befriended all of the staff which made vendor coordination meetings go smooth. Although our venue came with a coordinator, I felt that I needed someone who knew what I wanted and would voice that to others. Steph was that mind reader. Steph and Mali are your people from the moment you wake up on your wedding day. We asked them to help with set up, timeline, and break down. I have no idea how they managed to set up our venue up to pure perfection and also make sure either Mali or Steph was with the bride/ groom at all times. At one point, Mali noticed we were struggling with our dog and offered to hold her leash while we finished up with family portraits. I can't tell you if anything went wrong because Steph just handled it. Day of, I was asked about 4 questions and if any changes needed to be made, Steph made sure I approved them, even if my mom said it was okay hahah. Steph is always prepared for worst case scenario. She helped me out with providing like 20 batteries for these inflatable sharks I was using on the dance floor. Which without the inflatable "Bad Bunny" sharks, my dance floor would not have been as awesome. She also offered me some liquid IV for when my legs started to cramp up from all the dancing I was doing. Day of coordinator is not enough of a title for what Steph does. She's so much more and I'll never be able to thank her enough.

For your reception, their Grandview Ballroom is surrounded by windows with views overlooking their pristine golf course. There is a separate lounge area for a cocktail hour that also includes an outdoor patio area.

Cannot recommend this place enough! We had the most beautiful wedding on September 21, 2024. Donna was very pleasant to work with and made the wedding planning process very easy for us. The bridal suite is gorgeous as well as the entire venue. I was surprised by how amazing the food was! There is a tasting event that happens in February for couples getting married that year, which was a lot of fun to attend. The food at the tasting was good, but it was even better on our wedding day. One of the best filet's we had in a while. Not to mention, it rained on our wedding day, which was a bummer at first because the garden where the ceremony sight is is absolutely stunning...but we had our ceremony indoors which was equally beautiful because the room has big windows, so you get the feel of an outdoor ceremony with views overlooking the golf course. Overall we are so happy we chose Pleasant Valley for our venue and we can't wait to go back for our anniversary dinner!

Brian did an amazing job for our hybrid Guyanese-American wedding. With our ceremony, Brian did a great job following our difficult instructions related to some of the music to be played, and did a fantastic job on some of the premixes for the walk. He also had everything needed such as speakers and microphones for the ceremony and confirmed and communicated with us on everything to ensure it went smoothly. We needed a mix of chutney/soca and American music for our reception and Brian did an amazing job that satisfied EVERYONE. He was familiar with a lot of our music, which was awesome, and did an amazing job mixing the music with more American music to satisfy everyone. I can't recall a moment the dance floor was empty. We had an amazing wedding day and LTL was a large reason why our wedding went smoothly and everyone had an amazing time. I would highly recommend LTL for your wedding. Especially if you are multicultural or need someone to provide non-american music, which can be difficult to find in the area. We are so happy we went with Brian and LTL, it was an absolutely amazing party!

I'm Steph, a wanderer at heart, but I'm back to my New England roots living in MA with my husband, and our son, two dogs, and a cat. Becoming a mom has changed me in so many ways, and it's given me a new perspective, especially when it comes to taking photographs. We live in such a fast-paced society focused on Instagram "likes" and trends, that I feel as though we often miss the point of this thing called life. I love capturing the "in-between" moments, and making sure you don't feel rushed on your wedding day. I want to bring back the coffee table photo albums and sharing photos and stories, not scrolling through your socials.

My husband and I, and now my whole family, cannot recommend Stephannie enough. We have worked with her for years now, for all different types of shoots and there’s a reason we keep coming back. Steph is so kind, and she is the for you on your day in whatever capacity you need in addition to wearing her photographer hat. And to top it all off she takes INCREDIBLE photos to boot! She does such a wonderful job capturing everyone’s emotions in the moment, without posing folks, and without being intrusive. We’ve had Steph do our engagement, our wedding, a couples session, and most recently brought her back for family photos. She is truly an incredible human being that you will want to work with repeatedly and I wouldn’t be surprised if you become fast friends through it all.

My husband and I were married at Salem’s this weekend and I wouldn’t change a thing about the day or the entire planning process! Honestly, I didn’t know anything about planning a wedding but Donna and Martha took care of everything I needed and even the things I didn’t know I needed. Through out planning communication was clear and timely. Donna answered all my questions and accommodated any changes (even last minute) without batting an eye. Salems has great relationships with local venders and their ability to collaborate made it all the more seamless. On the day of my family and I chose to get ready at Salem’s; we had a comfy suite and they served us a delicious sit down lunch with salads and mimosas in a private dining space. When a couple of little girls showed up as a surprise the kitchen staff even made them their own macaroni and cheese plates! The ceremony space and overall landscaping was perfect with flowers and fresh cut grass. Our guests loved taking photos on the beautiful grounds and our professional photos look like they are straight out of a fairy tale. At the reception everyone raved about the delicious prime rib dinner and strawberry short cake. The serving staff and bartenders were fun, personable, professional, attentive and really seemed invested in making my family’s day perfect. If I could do my wedding day again I would absolutely choose this venue.

Mer·​ri·​ment: lighthearted gaiety or fun-making We love the term "fun-making" especially in the context of a wedding day. Weddings are a celebration! Your film should bottle that energy. Shake for timeless fun. This is who we are. We love a good party.

I have been in the wedding industry for 11 years and have worked with a ton of videographers! When it comes to referring videographers to my clients, Merriment Films is one of our top choices! We also refer their sister companies Stop Go Love and Huxley Films. They are always a pleasure to work and I know my clients will have a great experience and an amazing video when it's all said and done! If I got married again, one of their companies would be my choice! I even used them for my own brand videography! They are all very talented but more importantly, they are truly good humans and we are blessed to be able to now call them friends.

The Colonial Hotel, is one of Central Massachusetts’ most romantic hotels & wedding venues. This 112 room hotel, idealizes New England charm & quintessential hospitality. Known for their expertise in event planning, this property hosts around 100 weddings and corporate events a year. This casual venue attracts guests from Massachusetts & Southern New Hampshire on wedding weekends, and business travelers from Tyco International throughout the week. With a restaurant and catering service onsite, The Colonial Hotel provides unparalleled service & event expertise for their guests. The Colonial Grille, offers a variety of functionality from rehearsal dinners to birthday parties and everything in between. The restaurant provides a local draw from the Gardner, MA area and contributes to the property’s off-season push throughout the months of January – March.

Mary and her team at the Colonial were amazing. They walk you through everything and make it easy to keep track of what you need to bring and what you need to do when. You can tell this is a popular wedding spot just by how streamlined they have made everything. This is a group tasting vendor where they bring in everyone for the year; however, they make the tasting fun and you get to meet affiliated vendors that you can choose to book with. The grounds are beautiful and cozy while being easy to get to. They made our day seamless. I was worried, because most people I spoke with before the wedding said to just go with the flow because something always goes wrong, and to be honest, I felt like nothing did; I feel like that's because the Colonial and their vendors really cared about making our day special.

At Life Through a Shutter Photography, our goal is to preserve memories and emotions that will last a lifetime. We approach our work with empathy, care and attention to detail, ensuring that each client has a personal and enjoyable experience. Sure, looks are important... I dig deeper than just what appears on the outside, I find those raw emotions and capture the connection in real time. What matters most when you look back at an image is being able to relive that emotion, what you felt in that exact moment, and hang on to that feeling. That's the real reason why photos last a lifetime and say a million words. Emotion!

I would recommend and use Alysha over and over ! She photographed both my private wedding and reception. Went above and beyond. And couldn’t be more happier. Can’t wait to need her services again.

I started photographing weddings in 2017. I originally got my first camera to photograph landscapes- National Parks specifically. But the second the camera was in my hands, I was immediately drawn to photographing connections between people. Since that moment I haven't hesitated while my heart led me in the direction of wedding and elopement photography! I love documenting the in-between, unprompted moments; the subtle way your partner glances over at you with a side smile when you're not paying attention, the groom fiddling with his new ring, and the uncontrollable laughter when you're melting into each other during your couple's photos.

Tamara's work speaks for itself. She is an incredibly talented photographer and clearly loves her job. Beyond that, Tamara is kind, professional, and so amiable that she instantly makes you feel like a friend!

From the moment we met Zoe from Sagefire Photography, we knew she would be the perfect fit for our wedding day. Her communication style was quick, easy, direct, and clear, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. Zoe's high-quality, beautiful, and long-lasting work truly captured the joy and love of our special day. She was a calming, responsive presence, even offering to bring me a coffee (my love language!) when I needed it most. The photos she took with family were easy to organize, and our guests are still raving about how stunning they are. We are so grateful to have these memories that will last forever, and we hope more couples will have the chance to work with Zoe and experience the same level of care and professionalism that we did.

Audrey and Cody were amazing!! I would recommend them to anyone planning a wedding. From start to finish, we never had one worry about how our pictures would turn out (and we could not be happier with the end result!). We met with Audrey and Cody first to do our engagement session and immediately felt at ease (during somewhat of an awkward experience as neither my husband or I love being in front of the camera!) Audrey and Cody took time to get to know us, what we wanted, and made the day enjoyable. Every time we met with them, they put our wants and thoughts first but, were also great in helping us narrow down a timeline and organize wedding details we were unsure about. They day of the wedding they were organized, helpful, and professional. My favorite part was how they told us to spend a little time “just us” in between the ceremony and reception. It was so thoughtful of a photographer not only to be thinking of how to get the right shot, but also other little things to make for a perfect day.

Let me tell y’all - we had our wedding in a state we don’t live in, so it was very much a “trust the process and trust our vendors” kind of situation. Drew came THROUGH!!! She was so patient with us and made sure we had exactly what we wanted for our wedding cake, and oh my goodness was it delicious! My spouse and I had never eaten a wedding cake that 1) tasted so good, or 2) was that fluffy and moist. We were also able to get some allergy-friendly cupcakes, and they tasted exactly like the rest of the cake. We’re so glad we trusted Drew with our wedding cake and hope we have a reason to get a cake from them again soon!!

As a fellow videographer, I have worked with Dan many times. I've not only been his second shooter, but he has been mine. Dan is super laid back and a calming presence during the day.
