Awarded Best of Zola
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.

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.

I had the pleasure of working with Madison this past summer for a wedding I was the florist for. As another vendor, I can't express how impressed I was with Maddie's demeanor for the day. She was such a joy to be around - she managed to be laid back yet kept the ball moving with the couples timeline. She found all the best lighting and scoped out all of the best backdrops for the couple and the end result was absolutely flawless! As a florist, I was blown away when she sent me the full album and had captured so many floral shots. I would love to work with Madison again in the future and would recommend her to all couples looking for a genuine, intuitive, talented and heartfelt photographer.

I am so glad we chose to work with Nicole of Nicole Marcelle Photography. She captured absolutely stunning photos of our small wedding in Providence, and we are still blown away by how beautifully she documented the day. Nicole was professional, funny, and incredibly easy to work with. She offered so much helpful guidance and had a great eye for posing and locations, which made us feel really comfortable and at ease. One of the biggest highlights was how seamlessly she took charge when needed—corralling guests for group photos and keeping everything moving without ever feeling rushed. It allowed us to relax and truly enjoy the moment. We chose Nicole because we were impressed with her portfolio and knew she had photographed at our venue, the Providence Athenaeum, before. Her familiarity with the space showed in every shot; she captured the magic, atmosphere, and little details of the place perfectly. She also made sure my red wedding dress truly POPPED in the photos. Nicole’s work is an incredible investment—her photos are something we’ll treasure for years to come.

From the initial planning process, Crissy was very responsive and professional, ensuring she understood exactly what we wanted.

Awarded Best of Zola
One of the best decisions we made was hiring Mallory. We are "so-so" with the camera (not entirely shy but also "what do I do with my hands"- kind of people). Mallory was awesome to show some styles that she was thinking of and looked at some inspiration photos that we picked out (this was done way before engagement shoot and before our wedding day). She made our engagement session super relaxed and fun - her ability to capture "moments" of our relationship left us in awe. She would let us do our thing and then gently guide/direct us, which was exactly what we needed (some guidance with no "stiff" or "don't move" photos). Fast forward to wedding planning, we shared a brief list of "mandatory family photos" and she created a timeline (with our wedding coordinator's timeline) and we gave her full reign on creativity! Again, she excelled! She captured some beautiful moments and looking back - we could FEEL and remember those moments she captured. We are forever in awe of her talent and ability to capture our day. During our wedding day, we unfortunately had a nor'easter come through (some would say good luck) - so lots of rain. Mallory was beyond prepared. She brought us umbrellas (I had also gotten some) and she was quick to make changes as needed. We received SO many compliments on Mallory's work and how well she worked with our other vendors. Additionally, I appreciate that she never "stopped" our day - as in, interrupt what was happening to get a particular photo. Rather, she flowed with our wedding planner and found opportunities to capture literally so many beautiful moments! I'm so happy we trusted her because she saw things that we couldn't and we are forever grateful for that. I cannot recommend her enough!! She gained clients for life :)

Hello! I'm Brenden, and my passion for photography began with a film camera from my Aunt in Japan. I spent nearly a decade in fashion photography, capturing style and elegance before transitioning to weddings. This vibrant field allows me to meet amazing people and capture their unique stories. Featured in magazines and awarded in Hong Kong, I continuously strive to enhance my skills. As a father of six, I cherish photography's power to connect us with our past. At Luminist Photography, I'm dedicated to capturing your love story with creativity and care.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing the right wedding photographer is a big decision. You want someone who can not only capture the stunning details and magical moments, but also someone who you feel comfortable with and who understands your vision. We hit the jackpot with Brenden! We first had the pleasure of working with Brenden at our engagement shoot, and we knew right away that he was something special. He's not just a talented photographer with an eye for light and composition; he's also a genuinely warm and kind person who puts you at ease instantly. He took the time to get to know us as a couple, understand what we were hoping for in our wedding photos, and offered suggestions we hadn't even considered. On the wedding day, Brenden was a calming presence amidst the whirlwind of emotions. He expertly navigated the chaos, capturing everything from the moments of beautiful bride getting ready (which I of course didn't get to see) to the raucous dance floor without ever being intrusive. He even managed to wrangle our (sometimes camera-shy) family and friends into some truly heartwarming shots. But the real magic happened when we saw the final photos. Brenden's talent is undeniable. He somehow managed to capture the raw emotion, the unadulterated joy, and the tiny, precious details that made our wedding day so perfect. We laughed, we cried, and we relived every moment all over again through his lens. Brenden isn't just a photographer; he's a storyteller. He tells the story of your love, your commitment, and the sheer joy of celebrating with the people you love most. He's the kind of photographer who becomes part of the celebration, someone you'll remember fondly long after the cake is eaten and the dancing shoes are hung up. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who will not only deliver stunning photos but also create an unforgettable experience, look no further than Brenden. He's more than just a vendor; he's an investment in memories that will last a lifetime.

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.

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!

Hey, I’m Mark, a Rhode Island wedding photographer. I photograph weddings throughout southern RI, the Newport mansions, Cape Cod, and places with character—coastal estates, barns, mills, and rustic spaces. I became a photographer because I love work that brings people joy. Being trusted to capture meaningful moments is deeply rewarding, and it’s what led me to pursue this full-time. I’ve been a professional photographer since 2019. Since then, I’ve photographed over 130 weddings. My focus is creating an experience that feels calm, natural, and genuinely enjoyable—so couples can stay present and focused on the day itself.

I am a wedding photographer from Southeast New England. My love for photography goes back over 15 years and has been intertwined in my creative process ever since. I shot my first wedding 8 years ago and never looked back. I am passionate about capturing the most intimate and special day you will share. With over 150 weddings under my belt, I bring not only top-notch professionalism but a wide array of experience as a wedding photographer.

Colton is hands down the best photographer and we couldn't be luckier to have had him capture our wedding! We cannot recommend him enough! From wedding planning to the big day, Colton was a joy to work with—fantastic communication, so personable, professional, and incredibly talented. Our family and bridal party kept complimenting how friendly and amazing he was. He remembered everyone's names, which made the experience even more personalized. He made sure to capture everything on our shot list and more. We were amazed at how quickly he delivered our sneak peek photos (literally 1.5 hours after the wedding ended!!), and they are absolutely stunning!! We are so excited to see the full album! Colton truly made all of our photo dreams come true by capturing our day so beautifully. Highly, highly recommend booking Colton!!

Hi friends! My name is Jess. I never know what to write in these bios but here goes …. I’m a caffeine addict (coffee and Dr Pepper), wife to my high school sweetheart, mom of three active kids, complete artsy nerd, avid fan of Marvel/Disney, legos and puzzles and lastly, a lover of nature and of human connection. Capturing details and moments that you don’t get to stop and relish in the day of your wedding, but will have for the rest of your life, it’s what I love.

If I could give Jess 100 stars I would! Jess was amazing to work with all around from her attitude to her creativity, it was great to still be able to act yourself while being photographed and not stiff and posed the entire time. Our wedding pictures came out over the top amazing and there is not one bad picture! We will be working with Jess in the future for any photography we may need!
