Hi! My name is Courtney. I am the owner and lead shooter of Courtney Cohen Photography. I am based out of Barrington, RI, and love to spend time with my husband, toddler, and dog by the beaches of Rhode Island. I have a very candid approach when it comes to photography. I want to capture the raw emotion that you will remember for years and years to come. I shoot mainly outdoors with natural light but am trained with OCF (off-camera flash) for any low light or indoor locations. I strive to work with my clients not only to give them amazing pictures but also to make their lives as easy as possible. I hope that you reach out and we can chat!

My husband and I absolutely adore Kristen. Trying to pick a photographer was an overwhelming decision for us due to the fact that there are so many different styles and we weren’t sure what we were looking for. But once we talked to Kristen on the phone we knew she was the perfect fit for us. Her energy over the phone was so infectious and made us excited to get in front of her camera. Our first time meeting her was at our engagement shoot. We decided to go with a sunrise beach session and Kristen showed up with energy and ready to capture our love. She was down to do any pose and was always hyping us up on how perfect our pictures were coming out. We had so much fun and were just able to relax and be ourselves. This all translated into the beautiful pictures we received from Kristen. From the time of our engagement shoot (July 2023) to our wedding (September 2024) Kristen was always checking in to see how we were doing and how excited she was to shoot our big day. It was so awesome to have constant check ins with her!! The day of our wedding (9/21/24) was so amazing thanks to Kristen. She was with us for majority of the day and always made sure to hype us all up and to make sure I knew I could take breaks from pictures at any time. All of our guests absolutely loved her as much as my husband and I do. 10/10 would recommend her for any photography services. She is amazing to work with, takes beautiful pictures, and is professional but also knows how to have a good time.

My gift is my vulnerability, passion, and dedication. I believe every image has the power to evoke emotions that can't be expressed in words. I'm dedicated to creating imagery that speaks to your heart and soul, capturing the essence of a moment and evoking powerful emotions that will last a lifetime. I want to be your newest best friend behind the camera, capturing your honest love, the miracle of life, and your passion for life. Your truth is my mission.

When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me. She curated a family shot list, and let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her and her team were amazing.

Hedi Field Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Serves Oakland, RI

My love for art and photography began 10 years ago. That's when I bought my first camera. It was love at first sight! My job is way more than just to create beautiful imagery. It is to help you have fun and feel like a rockstar in front of the camera!

I cannot recommend Hedi Field Photography enough and would give 100 stars if I could! If you are considering hiring her for your engagement, rehearsal dinner, or wedding please look no further. We used her for all three and could not be happier - not only did we end up with the most incredible photos that we will cherish forever, but we gained such beautiful, fun, memories working with her that will always hold a special place in our hearts. Hedi is extremely talented at capturing your love and bond with ease, and she has such a warm, kind, and infectious energy that makes you feel comfortable from your first picture with her. As a reference - we had worked with another photographer before that did not have this touch, and the photos came out very stoic and awkward as a result. Over 1000 photos from Hedi later and not one awkward one - each one was so full of life and beauty that it instantly transports you back to the moment and makes you smile! Hedi even made sure movement and life shined through the photos of the scenery and the little details that couples work so hard on, nothing went unnoticed! From our very first meeting, Hedi was incredibly organized, meticulously detail- oriented, and thoughtful. She took the time to understand our vision, ensuring that every moment we wanted to capture was prioritized, in every location, and in every outfit. She created timelines and shoot locations to coordinate with the lighting, time of day, and ease of transition to make the process less about logistics for us and more about fun! Hedi went above and beyond during our engagement session and rehearsal dinner, ensuring we got every shot (for the engagement this consisted of 4 outfits and 3 shooting locations later, and for the rehearsal it meant being extra flexible to the large family demands with a high guest count that all wanted pictures ). Hedi has a warm and approachable demeanor, but she knows how to maintain authority amongst what can be crazy family dynamics, keep on track, and expertly adhere to deadlines, ensuring everything ran smoothly, which was especially important and crucial on our wedding day. Beyond her incredible photography talent, Hedi helped take on extra responsibilities that eased the burden on our bridal party, family, and planner. Everyone at our event loved her personality, enthusiasm, and complimented her amazing work ethic and professionalism. Hedi did absolutely everything in her power to make our day as special as possible, and we are so honored and grateful to have had her as our photographer. After the wedding, Hedi delivered sneak peals on just a couple of days, and our full gallery within 2 months. She even went outside the scope of the contract and checked in with me on editing and preferences (she has the most incredible light and airy editing style that makes every pho look like the cover of Vogue) to make sure everything was perfect. We love you Hedi and cannot thank you or recommended you enough!

My passion for photography stems from my love of travel and capturing life's precious moments. There's nothing more fulfilling than preserving the most beautiful days of your life. Photos are a return ticket to moments gone. My goal is to create lasting memories that inspire and evoke emotions. I believe my purpose is the impact my work has on others. This is my 15th year, and it gets better with each passing year.

What can I possible say about Stacy? If you’re looking for a photographer who will go the extra mile for that special shot, someone will get down and dirty on the dance floor with you and your guests to do something outside the box, and someone who is not afraid to hop in that dance off and show her amazing moves, then look no further because Stacy is your girl!! She is incredibly professional, great at keeping control of a large wedding party to direct everyone perfectly for each shot, and has her timeline of events down pat, even to the point of knowing sunset times to make sure to get you that golden hour shot! Stacy and Shawn are the photography dream team to say the least, and everyone in the wedding party absolutely loved them! They both worked incredibly well with our videographers, whom they had never worked with before, to get the most amazing photos! When my photos came back, I was speechless! They are stunning! More than I could have ever imagined, and I am so incredibly grateful to both Stacy and Shawn for everything that they do! Believe me when I say that you will not be disappointed by choosing Stacy Smith Studios, because I can’t imagine anyone other than Stacy having shot our beautiful wedding!

Throughout my variety of experiences in life, I have had the privilege to realize the power of communication and the importance of surrounding yourself with the things that make you most happy.

I am always a friendly face, please feel free to reach out at any time!

Ben & I cannot thank Emma Guillot Photography enough for all she has done for our weddings. She photographed our church wedding and knew exactly how much all the small, fine details meant to us on that day. She perfected moving in and out of pews so much so that no one even noticed she was there! At our second wedding which was much larger and at a different location she knew all the ins and outs of our families and how we wanted photos taken. She lead the charge in taking photos I never would have thought of taking on such a stressful day! Emma is beyond professional. Her calming demeanor really helped in keeping things stress free for us! We are beyond blessed to have had her with us on one of the biggest moments of our lives and now we have photos that will last a lifetime and be timeless! If you’re looking for a photographer that goes the extra mile, loves what she does and truly cares about what you want - then this is your girl! We would choose her again and again! Thank you, Emma! Words cannot fully describe how incredibly thankful we are to have had you with us. I can’t stop looking at all the photos.

If you're considering working with Brittany, DO IT! I 100% recommend working with her and team for any occasion, especially a wedding. Brittany played an indispensable role in making our wedding day an absolute success. From our very first Zoom meeting, her professionalism and knowledge were evident. She guided us through every step, ensuring that our photography experience was seamless and enjoyable. During the formal shots, Brittany’s infectious laughter and warm smile put us at ease. Her magical photos captured the essence of our special day, preserving memories we’ll cherish forever. But Brittany’s commitment extended beyond the lens—she went above and beyond in every aspect of her work. Managing family dynamics during group photos can be challenging, but Brittany handled it with finesse. She kept everyone on schedule, ensuring we didn’t miss a moment. We wholeheartedly recommend working with her for any occasion; she quickly became one of our favorite vendors. Brittany wasn’t just a photographer; she felt like part of our family. Her beautiful photos, organized proofs, and thoughtful album delivery left us in awe. And her responsiveness? Top-notch. Simply put, Brittany is the best.

Hi! I’m Carol. I am based out of Warren, RI - the cutest lil’ New England town. I mostly photograph in RI and MA, and am willing to travel! The weddings I photograph are small and intimate. With the pandemic we saw a lot of people change their wedding plans to micro weddings, backyard weddings, and elopements. Though the reason for these changes came from public health concerns, I think there has been a shift in how we look at weddings. There is something so beautiful about the intimacy of the closest of family and friends gathered at your home or on the beach. I adore documenting these gatherings and it is a privilege to be a part of.

I am Oksana Miroshnichenko, owner and lead photographer here. If you need to know anything about me, it’s that I love coffee, travel, plants and Jesus. In 2017, I quit nursing school and moved to Rhode Island to pursue the one thing I knew I was meant to be doing – wedding photography. I now serve couples all over the New England area and Florida during the cooler months.

Oksana and her team were just incredible! Our first introduction to Oksana was over Zoom where she spent the time getting to know us and ask about our relationship but also shared about herself too. Oksana ended up shooting our engagement session in Newport, RI and Aly, Oksana's associate shooter shot our wedding in Cohasset, MA. Both Oksana and Aly are very professional and kind but also so down to earth, making us feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Oksana took the time months before our wedding to set a very detailed day of schedule, which ultimately helped organize the whole wedding day and was very responsive to any questions I had. We recently received our photos back and couldn't be happier. Her edit is natural and timeless, and we will cherish all the memories captured from our wedding day forever!

Hey there! I’m Maria. I grew up with cameras in my life from the very beginning. On my mom’s side of the family, we say “it’s in our blood”. Since my first photography course, I knew that this was something I wanted to incorporate into my daily life. I’ve always lived by the thought that “it’s better to have taken too many pictures than none at all.” I’m here to preserve your memories of your big day!!! I'm in love with love and truly enjoy capturing your story. Your love. Your connection. Let's get you married and let's take some damn good photos while we're at it.

Maria was so fantastic!! My husband and I decided to do a last minute pandemic micro wedding, with just our immediate family and close friends present. Of course, finding any vendors, especially a photographer, last minute is a challenge. Luckily, Maria was recommended to me, and I couldn't have been happier with anyone else! Her style of photography and editing was exactly what I was hoping for! Getting to know her over the phone, and working out a schedule for the day of the wedding was a breeze. She was so great at staying in contact via email and text leading up to the big day. Also, I have a family that requires a lot of guidance (we're talking herding cats here) and Maria was AWESOME at keeping everyone moving and where they needed to be the day of the wedding. She even got all the pictures I wanted of our dog who was included in the wedding ceremony! Despite the rainy weather, she remained upbeat and positive the whole day! And I think her positive attitude was what led to us being rewarded with an amazing pink sunset at the end of our couples pictures. Her poses and editing created the wedding photos of my dreams! I definitely plan to hire Maria again for future family photos!

We are a female owned photography studio specializing in making you look awesome, badass karaoke duets, telling dumb jokes, laughing at said jokes and just being a overall joy for anyone to have at their wedding.

My husband and I are SO HAPPY we went with M. Studios for our wedding! We adore Melissa and Marisa. They are an incredible team, their pictures are literally perfect, and you will feel like you have friends showing up to take your pictures on your wedding day. These ladies are hilarious, charming, and also REALLY REALLY GOOD at what they do. What more can you ask for. First let's rewind all the way to our engagement photos (which I highly recommend doing) - my husband and I are from TX but were living in Rhode Island for 3 months. We really wanted our engagement photos in RI, not TX, but were seriously running out of time due to waiting weeks for some photographers we were talking to to respond. Others were being flaky about scheduling an actual date for the photos with us. Enter M. Studios and they promptly got on a call with us and fit us into their busy schedule, we took our photos a few days before we left the state and they were beautiful. I know that's not easy during the summer wedding season. They communicated well with us when we were home in Texas and I listened to their podcast, haha so I felt like I really got to know them! When they came in on the wedding day, I was so comforted to see familiar faces and knew they would do a great job. My husband and I were just happily enjoying our wedding day and kind of oblivious to what was going on around us, but looking back at all the videos we have you can see Melissa and Marisa always in the perfect position to get those great shots on the dance floor. We laugh about it because we weren't looking to see what photos they were getting at the time, but looking back they were always sneakily getting the great shots! We're so excited to get our pictures and know they will be amazing! They posted a few right away and we have been looking at those on repeat, there's not a single photo we don't love. Oh, and we went over a little on our time (I had no idea what time it was at any point - no phone, no watch) and our videographers packed up and left but M. Studios stayed to take photos of our exit and had a great attitude about that! As a bride, I feel like it's so important to relax and enjoy your day, and trust your vendors. With M. Studios you can rest easy knowing that they will do an amazing job for you. In the sea of all the wedding decisions you're faced with, this one is a no-brainer. If I could go back and do it again, the only thing I would change is I would have booked them faster. Thanks for everything & we love you!

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like.

She did a great job managing our timeline and shot list and provided very clear directions with group photos so everyone knew exactly what to do. The photos themselves came out so beautifully and exactly what we had envisioned - she did an awesome job taking advantage of our venue and the scenery. We also got sneak peek photos back within 48 hours! As a person, Jen is so warm, friendly, confident, and a prompt communicator. She even took the time to help me out with an issue I was having with my dress, even though it shouldn't have been a photographer's job. We can't wait to get all of our photos back.

Eric shot our engagement session, and we loved the photos so much, we used them to make our wedding guestbook. On the actual wedding day, Eric was a calming presence and truly helped make our day feel special. He knew exactly how to guide us in photos so nothing felt posed or overdone. To say we are OBSESSED with our photos is an understatement. We couldn’t recommend Wedding Alchemy enough!!

Courtney and her assistant (I’m blanking on her name!) were incredibly kind and fun to work with! They were completely open to the poses/shots we wanted to do. They could have been a little more assertive with getting shots of just me and my husband (we wanted to do more photos after dinner) however it was an incredibly chaotic day so maybe some of that was our fault.

We had a lot of things pop up on our wedding day and Dani knew how to take charge and keep things going but she has a safe energy and made everyone in our group feel super comfortable. She was a great addition to our day! Not to mentioned was very accommodating to what we’ve wanted and our photos are actually pieces of ART. I cannot believe how amazing our photos turned out. I had a dream of having head turning wedding photos but I wasn’t confident I was capable of having them because I don’t know to pose or act in front of the camera and Dani made it happen for us. We are so happy with our photos and will be bugging Dani for years to come to continue to capture us.

We are so happy we decided to work with Felisha! From the very first planning call to the delivery of our wedding pictures, Felisha was exemplary. The first time we met in person, we did our engagement pictures. We were so nervous and camera-shy, but Felisha did a wonderful job at breaking the ice. Fast forward to our wedding day, she brought so much energy and positivity! She kept us smiling and on schedule throughout the day. We were so impressed with her work ethic and ability to connect with us and our guests. Felisha has an unparalleled eye for the right lighting, angles and backdrop to perfectly capture her subjects. I am over the moon with our pictures and know that we will work with her again as we expand our family. Not only has Felisha been a wonderful professional to work with, but she also has become a friend to us. We highly recommend her for all of your photography needs. Thank you so much Felisha!

I am a travel photographer based out of Louisville, Kentucky. I have always been the friend with the camera admiring those around me. I am truly captivated by people simply being people, always finding beauty in human connections and the REAL. My goal is to be a calming presence, help the day run smooth, and ensure everyone in front of the camera feels COMFORTABLE. I lean toward documentary style photography emphasizing what makes your love unique.

Kaitlyn Carter Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From our first interaction, Kaitlyn was responsive, easy-going, but also very professional, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, her calm and friendly presence was so comforting, and she captured every moment beautifully - from the small, intimate details as we were getting ready to the larger, posed family shots. The quality of Kaitlyn's work is simply stunning, with a documentary-style approach and gorgeous natural lighting that perfectly encapsulated the passion and love of our special day. We are thrilled with the photos from our engagement session and wedding day and couldn't recommend Kaitlyn Carter Photography more highly.

Hi! My name is Faith Donahue. I'm a creator from New Hampshire, living in Massachusetts. With a background in graphic design and photography, I decided to start my own business in April 2021. I absolutely love working with people and ensuring they capture their precious memories inside of beautiful images. I spend most of my days enjoying the company of my husband, our dog, Winston, and our newest addition, our little baby boy! I absolutely love to travel and I'm always down to travel for your wedding wherever it may be. I really look forward to working with and getting to know you!

Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend Faith, we chose a package that included an engagement photo shoot which was a great introduction to her and her photography, the quality of those photos put me at ease that our wedding photos would be in good hands. Faith stayed in communication over the course of the almost year between our engagement photos and the wedding. Faith helped us plan out our wedding day timeline and put together a beautiful professional looking timeline document that I was able to send to all of our vendors and family/bridal party, I can’t begin to explain how helpful that was. We chose a package with a second shooter and I’m so glad we did, Faith and her second shooter Stephanie were able to capture every aspect of the day from all angles. Faith was so easy to collaborate with, she took my ideas and ran with them creating magazine worthy shots, I lost count of how many people who said “that bench picture should be in a magazine”. Check out the picture and decide for yourself.

Aprea Media is located in Norwood, MA. We are a husband-and-wife team, Sarah & John. We strive to ensure that your wedding photography reflects your personality and love for each other. We blend documentary and editorial shooting styles with classic portraits. Every intimate detail and raw emotion is captured on your big day. We are more than willing to travel anywhere to provide our services!

My husband and I hired Aprea Media, aka Sarah and John, to be our photographers for our wedding. Their package came with an engagement photo session, which we did shortly after hiring them. The engagement session was so much fun! We went to the place we had our first date, LA Burdick, and Sarah captured so many cute photos of us drinking hot chocolate together. We then walked around Cambridge and had some really fun impromptu photos at a flower shop. We loved the engagement photos so much we used them on our save-the-dates and incorporated them into the wedding decor! It was so awesome having Sarah and John both capture all of our special moments on the day of the wedding, from getting ready (BOTH me and my husband have a bunch of awesome getting ready photos!), our first look and portraits before the ceremony, the ceremony itself, cocktail hour, reception festivities, and incredibly artistic details shots. They are both so much fun and offer cute suggestions for poses, but they also go with the flow if you have fun ideas you want to try! We got a lot of really sweet unplanned photos throughout the night. I didn't know anything about different photography styles before we hired them (we just liked their work and they were super friendly), but they really are so experienced with candid/documentary style photography. We love having photos where we can see all the sincere emotions on our faces from laughing, crying with joy, and pure bliss, in addition to our more posed portrait-style photos. Sarah's editing is so dreamy across all our engagement and wedding photos. We now have our walls at home covered in their photography - they did such an amazing job capturing all the fun parts of our day! As a really sweet bonus, they recorded video of our first dance and ceremony upon our request, along with a lot of fun highlights that we get to watch to relive the memories now. We truly can't recommend them enough!!!
