White Mountains Wedding Photography

  • Classic style
  • Serves Pittsburg, NH

I decided to become a wedding photographer simply because I love telling stories with my camera and capturing the loving moments, the smiles, the laughter of a couple’s special day. It is a privilege to witness a wedding day unfold before me… from the anticipation of the bride or groom getting ready, to the moment when the couple first sees each other, to the final good-byes. Every week, I am lucky enough to witness a new celebration, a new beginning; and through my photography, I am able to make a real difference in the lives of the people that I meet. What could be more exciting!

White Mountains Wedding Photography was a joy to work with on our wedding day. Hank is a personable, friendly, and excited photographer who truly cared about capturing our special day. On the day of the wedding, Hank's efficiency, artistic eye, and speed in taking the photos was impressive - he was able to get all the shots we wanted without ever feeling rushed or intrusive. Since we knew Hank personally, it was comforting to have him there capturing the day, and the final photos were absolutely stunning. We highly recommend White Mountains Wedding Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience. He was also able to turn around the pictures very quickly for us and is helping to curate a wedding album:)

Ergin was absolutely fantastic to work with on my surprise proposal. It was clear early on that Ergin is an expert when it comes to organizing, setup and capturing the moment. He is thorough, detail oriented, and I felt confident from our first messages that I could trust him to come through. He has a very positive light hearted energy that was perfect for the moment. Ergin captured the moment but gave us photos we will have for the rest of our life. I had reached out to a few photographers, but immediately felt lucky that I ended up going with Ergin .

During a New England Summer, you can catch me at Fenway on a Sunday afternoon or having the best lobster roll (change my mind) at Sesuit Harbor Cafe on Cape Cod. When I’m not taking or editing photos, I am most definitely in the kitchen whipping up a meal from one of Ina Garten’s cookbooks. Love that woman. Or playing with my daughter, Tessa and our pup, Lucy in our backyard. I’m so excited to meet you and to create lasting images that will hang in your home for years to come!

Jen is amazing! After she photographed my sister-in-law's wedding, I loved her style so much that I wanted to work with Jen again at my own wedding. She is extremely easy to work with and made us feel comfortable throughout the process. Her photos truly capture the day so beautifully. Even when firefighters had to crash the wedding due to an electrical issue, Jen rolled with the punches and took some of the best photos of the night of us sitting on a fire truck! I cannot recommend Jen enough!

Elizabeth was the perfect photographer for our wedding! From our initial meeting, I knew she was the most qualified, prepared, and detailed oriented person for the job! She was so organized, and helped our day go super smooth. She provided questionnaires for us to make sure we were on the same page, and knew our values. We met a week before the wedding to go over details, and prepare for the big day which made us get super excited for everything too! My husband and I were a little nervous being the center of attention and in front of the camera the entire day, but she made us feel so comfortable and natural! She was familiar with our Church, and took the extra step to go to our venue prior to the wedding to familiarize herself with that setting as well! I did not even get started on how BEAUTIFUL the pictures came out! Her pictures can be described as light, airy, and fun! We could not believe how stunning and perfect she captured our day. We have gotten so many compliments on the style and edits of our photos. She even writes a blog with her pictures that summarize the day and captures all the moments! Elizabeth gave us the sneak peak 3 days after the wedding which was so fun to go through during our honeymoon, and was early to send us our final images back. I can't wait to use her for future life events, and will highly recommend her to everyone anywhere and especially in the southern NH area!!

Our wedding in Owls Head was everything we’d imagined—ocean air, views of Rockland Harbor, and the lighthouse in the distance. Matt and his team captured it all beautifully, along with the little in-between moments that meant the most. The photos are gorgeous. They feel honest and full of life. And the video… we’ve already watched it more times than we can count. It brings us right back to that day every single time. It doesn’t feel posed or overdone. It just feels like us.

As a Massachusetts native, my love for photography and video began in 8th grade. Through college & long after earning a communications degree, I continued refining the way I see the world through the lens of my camera. After working years as a 2nd shooter wedding photographer, I learned that representing myself was the only way I could truly provide couples the care and attention to detail they deserve. And that's exactly what I have been doing ever since! If you are drawn to imagery that is unique, timeless, creative, and true, I would be honored to document your story!

When my (now) husband and I were booking vendors for our wedding, we had no idea where to start looking for a photographer. I decided to let Zola recommend some vendors and we ended up booking with So Behold This, who works very closely with Michael at Michael Francis Films. Michael was our photographer the day of our wedding and everything was great! He is super fun to work with, professional and his work is fantastic. Would absolutely recommend Michael Francis Films to anyone in the Greater Boston area.
