About Esther Mathieu Photography

Esther Mathieu Photography

Owner/Photographer

Hi there! I'm Esther, a Canadian-born photographer who feels lucky to have found the love of my life and a treasured home in the beautiful North Shore of Massachusetts. Weddings are an opportunity to capture the unbridled joy and true love that each couple radiates, expressing their unique personalities and qualities. I enjoy celebrating diversity and prioritize clear communication, creativity, and dedication to deliver an enjoyable, effortless and memorable experience for every client. I strive to capture each couple's uniqueness by getting to know them personally.

What sets me apart is my genuine love for connecting with couples and capturing their unique stories. I enjoy working with people from all walks of life, and my passion for creating a comfortable and welcoming environment for everyone shines through in my work. Whether you're an introvert or extrovert, a minimalist or maximalist, I always strive to understand your vision and help you bring it to life. I don't believe in imposing "shoulds" on weddings, and I'm always happy to support and guide you in making the best decisions for your photography needs.

    We worked with Esther for our wedding in December 2023 and our engagement shoot in April 2023! She is a phenomenal photographer who beautifully captured the essence of both our engagement and wedding. Her artistic flair and attention to detail truly set her apart. From the candid moments to the posed shots, every photo reflects her passion and skill. Esther's professionalism and warm personality made the entire process enjoyable. We are beyond thrilled with the results and highly recommend her for anyone seeking a top-notch photographer. She also helped us create a photo album months later. Five stars for an incredible experience and breathtaking memories!

    Esther was the photographer for our wedding and engagement session and I truly cannot recommend her enough. Firstly, her style, professionalism, and creations were truly exceptional. She captured the exact style and moment that my husband and I were hoping for. Esther was able to capture the perfect moment seamlessly while also curating a collection of images that are beautiful together in a gallery. But perhaps most importantly is Esther's kind nature, warm energy, and spirit. Esther has a wonderful way of making folks feel comfortable around a camera which leads to beautiful, relaxed, and organic photos. Esther was by far our favorite vendor to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone in the greater Massachusetts area. I look forward to working with Esther again for another photography session soon. Merci Esther !

    We had the pleasure of working with Esther Mathieu Photography for our wedding and engagement and the experience was nothing short of wonderful. From the candid moments to the portraits, the photos captured by Esther are absolutely stunning. We are so obsessed with our entire wedding and engagement galleries. Esther was incredibly professional and easy to work with. She arrived promptly, was well-prepared, and seamlessly blended into the background. Her friendly and approachable demeanor put everyone at ease. Communication with Esther was excellent. The entire process, from the initial consultation to receiving the final photos, was smooth and enjoyable. Our final photos were delivered on time and we love how the photos are organized in our online gallery, allowing us to relive our wedding day from beginning to end over and over again. I highly recommend Esther Mathieu Photography to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and kind wedding photographer. She captured our wedding day perfectly and we couldn’t be more grateful.

    Esther helped us create the best photo moments for our wedding, let me clarify, she was there from the start and was there to document our special moments from the getting ready, family photos at my parent's house, and our I do's! Our wedding was May of 2022 and I'm sorry this took me so long to write. It's tough to put into words how much we loved working with Esther and the quality of her shots. We chose Esther after a recommendation from a friend and it was hands down the right choice. From the first phone call, I knew she was the one! I hadn't spoken to many wedding photographers and since it was the pandemic and a popular time for weddings, I was a little worried I wouldn't be able to find the right photographer in time. Esther assured us that we were in good hands. Loved how she made us feel comfortable. It felt like a dear friend was taking our photos. She never posed us and made us feel uncomfortable. She made every photo op feel so natural. It's tough to find someone you can truly trust. The photos were stunning!! She send us the link to the gallery and our friends and family were in awe of her work. We chose Esther because of the way she captures natural light. She truly is an artist. We had an outdoor wedding, family photos, and a cocktail reception. We had an indoor dinner reception and the photos were exceptional. We could not have made a better choice. So happy everything worked out, especially during the pandemic, a busy wedding season, and outdoor weather/environment. She is organized, friendly, and above all professional. The albums we put together were gorgeous. It is clear she is dedicated to her work. The albums were better than anything we could have imagined. Grateful to have had Esther capture memories of a lifetime!
