Lacie was absolutely phenomenal to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. From the moment we jumped on a phone call to see if they were a right fit, I knew they would be. Her enthusiasm, understanding, outgoing way that she relates to people is an energy that you want on your big day. Our engagement session was incredible, she moves so quickly but efficiently, as to ensure you get all the shots you want, but is very mindful of time. Our wedding day was COMPLETE because of Lacie. In addition to her positive attitude, she helped smooth the timeline of events during the day when exterior factors were impacting the photography, and problem solved so wonderfully on the spot. She stepped in to help in moments that were above and beyond what we hired her for, and for that I am truly grateful. Her photography style is versatile and beautiful, specifically catered to your preference. I can't imagine a better photographer for our wedding and we are so grateful!

I feel so lucky to have found these amazing people! Heather and her incredible team feel like family to us, even though we only met a few months ago. They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day. I will never be able to forget what it felt like, thanks to these incredible people with unreal talent. I also cannot believe how easy it was to book her and for such a reasonable price! Booking Heather and her team was truly the best decision we could have made. I recommend them to anyone from all walks of life. You will be welcomed and taken care of like a friend or even family!

When I’m not behind the camera, I’m immersed in nature, treasure hunting in antique shops, or planning my next adventure.

Her attention to detail and commitment to capturing every meaningful moment was unparalleled.

Awarded Best of Zola
Words cannot fully express the gratitude we feel for the incredible team behind R&R Productions! From the moment we met them during our engagement shoot, they instantly made us feel at ease, turning what could have been a nerve-wracking experience into something genuinely fun and unforgettable. Their warm personalities, unmatched professionalism, and creative vision were evident right from the start. When it came to our wedding day—the most important day of our lives—they didn’t just capture moments; they captured the very essence of love, joy, and celebration that surrounded us. They didn’t feel like vendors; they felt like family, celebrating alongside us while documenting each precious second. They even covered us in prayer, which meant so much to us. Raphael worked through an injury without us knowing, simply because he didn’t want us to adjust anything for him. That level of dedication and selflessness left us in awe. They don’t just take pictures and record videos; they weave a story from the beginning to the end, preserving the magic and emotions in a way that’s truly extraordinary. And I just don’t even know where to begin with Rasheeda. We met through a Facebook post I replied to—one I initially thought was a scam. Boy, was I wrong! She and I ended up talking that very same day for over an hour, and it felt like we’d known each other forever. From the start, it was never just a business transaction; it felt like family helping to prepare for the big moments in life. Her warmth and genuine care meant everything to us. I don’t know what I did to be so lucky to have crossed paths with this amazing team, but I am forever grateful that we did. I honestly feel like I should keep them on retainer for every milestone in life because I cannot imagine anyone else being able to document such meaningful moments with the care and dedication they do. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly! Jerome and I are so grateful for the both of you.

I don't even know where to begin, Hannah is a ray of sunshine in human form. Not only, does she make being in front of the camera comfortable and easy, but she does so with humor and professionalism that cannot be taught. My husband usually turns into a cardboard statue in front of the camera, and within minutes he was comfortable, laughing and having a great time. This is all on top of the fact that her artistic, photographic style is unmatched. Her ability to take a sweet moment and turn it into art is a gift that lasts a lifetime. I have been fortunate enough to work with Hannah on all of our major life events and I will continue to do so until she fires me as a client. I love her and I promise you will too!

Working with Lexie was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our very first conversation, she brought a sense of calm, professionalism, and genuine care that made us feel completely at ease. On the wedding day, she moved with such grace, present, but never intrusive. It felt like she was everywhere and nowhere all at once, quietly documenting every meaningful moment. Her eye for detail is extraordinary. She captured the big, beautiful scenes. our ceremony under the trees, our first dance in golden light, but also the quiet, intimate ones we might have missed: a hand squeeze, a teary glance, a laugh caught mid-air. Every photo tells a part of our story, and looking through them feels like reliving the day all over again. Lexie has a rare talent. Not just for photography, but for people. Her ability to make us feel seen, celebrated, and completely ourselves was truly special. We’ll cherish these photos forever, and we’re endlessly grateful for her artistry and heart.

Hi there! I want to first say that I am pleased that you're here. I am happily married to my husband, Nick. Together, we have a little girl that we call Jojo. I have been a photographer for 5 years now, and my passion is wedding photography. I love to shoot during the golden hour and catch as many candid and timeless photos. If you don't see me with my family, you'll catch me at target or in the Dunkin' drive thru getting an iced coffee.

We had Angeliccaa at our venue for a wedding in July and she was amazing! So friendly and easy to work with. At one point I saw her on the dance floor holding a child dancing so I asked how long she had been friends with the family, and she responded she hadn’t met then before that day! That’s customer service for sure!! We look forward to the next time she’s back at our venue!
