About this vendor
Hey, I'm Vanessa – wedding and elopement photographer based in Boston, Massachusetts but shooting weddings all over New England and also the country AND the world. When I’m not being a photo taker, you can find me cooking and dancing in the kitchen with my husband, cuddling our dog like it’s our human child and going on spontaneous road trips around New England. I love traveling and getting to know new places – but I’m also a huge couch potato who enjoys a day at home doing nothing.
Photography is more than just my work - it's my art and my way to see the world. It's my happy place and where my creativity flies away. It's been a long journey since I started back in 2010 but I'm extremely happy to be where I am now.
My photography isn't for the super traditional folks - is for the ones seeking something different, is for the ones willing to be themselves, to show me some quirky dance moves. I’m all about some real connection and gushy moments. On your wedding day, I won't be there yo just to be your photographer - I WILL be there to be your friend, to fluff your dress and be there as an extra hand if you need! I really don't care if you have the fanciest or the trendiest of the weddings, a long or a short ceremony, the most beautiful flowers, who you are in love with or what your religion is. I just care that you love each other and don't fear showing it! I’m going to be there to photograph your day exactly how it is - honest and full of LOVE.

We cannot recommend Vanessa enough - I will be singing her praises until the end of time. She has such a gift with the camera, and the memories she captured for us from our engagem...
ent shoot, elopement and family celebration/reception will be cherished forever! She is so kind and warm, and really helped us to feel comfortable in front of the camera.
Vanessa and Chris, I cannot say enough to emphasize their incredible work. I learned about Vanessa by chance at a bar. Someone overheard me discussing the “vibes” I was hoping for ...
my wedding (spooky). I quickly found Vanessa’s instagram and promptly filled out an application. From start to finish, the communication has been flawless. The day of my wedding, Vanessa was present for all the key moments. She was respectful and thoughtful of my space, never overwhelming me and never making me feel uncomfortable. During posed pictures, they made me laugh but NEVER told me to smile. We received our sneak peek within a week and a day hasn’t gone by without my fawning over them.
After cancelling our wedding due to COVID and deciding to elope instead, Vanessa was so flexible about our contract, letting us split between shooting our elopement and then a larg...
er celebration some time down the road. She and her husband Chris are true professionals - they masked up, came to our (outdoor) site early, and made us feel so comfortable as they directed us through some poses. Cancelling our wedding was tough, so it meant the world to be able have beautiful photos of our elopement. Wedding photography can feel very generic, but Vanessa's style and editing makes every photo feel like a keepsake. On top of it all, she's so sweet and easy to work with. I can't recommend her enough!
Vanessa and her husband were the absolute best! They are not only incredibly talented photographers, they are truly a pleasure to be around and helped put us at ease in front of t...
he camera. Vanessa captured our day in such a beautiful and artistic way. I could not recommend them more!
Vanessa did a great job with our wedding photos. She was very professional and arrived on time. She made sure we got all the shots we wanted and paid attention to the details that ...
we weren’t even thinking about. I could not recommend her enough. She even sent a care package after the wedding with printed photos, polaroids and even a treat for our dog.
I hired Vanessa and her husband Chris to photograph my destination wedding to New Orleans after being connected with her by another photographer. Upon looking at her gallery, and s...
peaking with her, I immediately fell in love with the idea of her shooting my wedding! Her photos are stunning and artistic, and fell right in line with me and my husband's style and personality. Vanessa made the entire booking process comfortable and easy. We met up with them for coffee before our agreement, and Vanessa and Chris were so nice and so cool! They are super professional and very down to earth. Vanessa and Chris were super happy to be coming to New Orleans from Atlanta with us and our family, and they fit right in with everyone! All our guests and family talked about how awesome they were, and how hard they worked to get all the perfect shots. They are such a great team, and had a solid plan coming into our wedding ceremony and reception. You could tell they were very prepared and they made sure to get all the shots we wanted. I felt super comfortable trusting them with shooting all the important moments, and I felt like I didn't have to worry about anything. I was so excited to get our photos back from Vanessa, and they are everything I was hoping for and more! So beautiful, and so much time and effort went into editing them perfectly. Vanessa and Chris are polite, easy going, and professional. If you are looking for a great wedding photographer, look no further. You will not be disappointed!
