I’ve never been someone who enjoyed having my photo taken, until I worked with Grace & Joy Photography on my wedding day. They made me feel so comfortable and helped me see my own beauty in a way I never had before.

Founded in 1814, The West Boylston Company was a large textile manufacturer in West Boylston, MA. At the turn of the century the company faced a crisis: the site of their mill would be flooded to form the Wachusett Reservoir. Instead of abandoning the mill, the company dismantled it brick by brick and shipped it to its new home in Easthampton, where it was rebuilt on the banks of the Lower Mill Pond. Now, a century later, The Boylston Rooms retains the integrity of the 1814 original mill in every brick and beam. Our rental includes planners and decor at no added cost. Whatever your style, with over 140 pieces of decor, if you can picture it in the space, we can make it happen.

Hi, I'm Danny! My passion is to capture couples & their love story in a timeless way. I like to describe my style as a fusion between story-telling & editorial. I lean into true-to-life colors with a warm ambience and posing that's timeless but also interwoven with an editorial flare that's unique, artistic, and stylish. I also love incorporating story-telling stills that involve movement rather than a bunch of photos that feel "stiff" or overly posed. Story-telling moments bring wedding galleries life! I’d love the opportunity to connect with you, and hear more about your wedding vision!!

Awarded Best of Zola
Danny is the absolute GOAT. From start to finish, my entire experience working with Danny was smooth. His contract and communication is clear. Danny is so kind - my husband and I have never taken professional photos together and he was so good about directing us on what to do, how to move, stand etc. The pictures were everything we could've asked for and more. We had a big wedding party and worked with us so well. Truly, the best pictures I have ever seen. I was nervous in general because my husband and I struggle taking good pictures together and Danny made every single one of them look perfect. I also loved that we had the option to add to get the 24hr sneak peak photos. It truly had me so excited after my wedding. And also - his turn around time for all the photos was less than a month, that was so amazing! I am recommending Danny to everyone I know!! Please, if you are in between Danny and someone else, choose Danny!!

Photography is my passion. As a third generation photographer, it's in my blood! My grandfather opened a photography studio in Chicopee during the 1940's. Growing up, I spent hours looking at family photos, studying the faces of friends and loved ones. I read the hand written notes on the back of the pictures and I was taken back to the exact moment the photograph was taken. Even if the picture was snapped long before my birth, I could feel the emotion from that time. Photographs were and continue to be an absolute treasure in my household.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Danielle. She had great communication leading up to the day and created a detailed itinerary. She was enthusiastic and so helpful from the moment she arrived through the 8 hours she stayed with us. She captured everything and more with such beauty. She gave us space as a couple while still photographing every portrait and moment we wanted and also got beautiful candids we will always cherish. We definitely recommend and will book her again for all future events.

Hiring Matthew to capture my daughter's wedding was one of the single best decisions made for that day. He is thoughtful throughout the process, taking time to meet with my daughter and her fiancé and have them really think about what was important to them to capture during their special day, putting together a timeline to make the most of our time with Matthew, and then just seamlessly blending in with the day and capturing some of the most stunning photos.

As you take your first steps down the aisle and see your partner see you looking and feeling the most beautiful you ever have is so worth all the “stress”. Here is where it all comes together.

Justine was an absolute joy to work with throughout the wedding process! I loved how incredibly communicative and fast she was to respond to any and all questions. But most of all, I was absolutely in love with my wedding hair! During the trial, Justine really was open to trying out different looks, making subtle changes, and ensuring we found a style I loved for my wedding day. On the wedding day she flawlessly replicated what we had decided on during the trial. While my style was more of a loose curl, some of my bridesmaids have curly hair and she did a beautiful job working with and enhancing their natural curls too. Justine is incredibly talented. On top of it all, Justine is a great person to be around - she is easy to talk to and you can tell she really cares about what she does. I would 100% recommend Justine for your wedding day, and I wish I lived close enough to her to have her do my hair regularly!

Awarded Best of Zola
The moment my husband and I stepped into Union Station, we instantly knew this was the perfect venue for our wedding. The venue’s unique history and aesthetic appeal, coupled with flawless service and incredibly friendly staff, set the stage for an unforgettable day. The Event Coordinator, Neil Gadbois, was the orchestrator of our dream wedding, ensuring everything ran smoothly and with utmost calmness. Neil was transparent about the offerings within each package, never feeling pushy or like a salesperson trying to close a deal. His easygoing and responsive nature made the entire planning process smooth and enjoyable. Whenever we had a question, Neil was always there, ready with an answer. An event coordinator like that is accompanied by an incredible staff. Jaylene and Emma were amazing in taking care of us. Jaylene even greeted us with our signature drinks once we finished our ceremony, helping us kick off our celebration on the right foot. Our guests kept raving about the unique charm of the venue. It creates a nostalgic, speakeasy-like ambiance that takes you back in time. We couldn’t have asked for a better day and we highly recommend that others give Union Station a visit, you will not be disappointed. - Lisa & Marc

I photograph weddings in a bright, airy style using natural light and a relaxed approach. I focus on real moments as they happen, keeping things simple and low pressure so your photos feel honest, timeless, and true to your day.

Aleksandr blew us out of the water with his photography skills! Not only was he patient and kind towards us, but he was also incredibly supportive, encouraging, and professional. He knew exactly what to tell us to get the best shot he could. We got married at a venue that had pretty harsh lighting in certain places, and he was able to make every single photo bright and cheery! Even the ones we took in the freezing rain; he has such a unique, artistic eye. Aleksandr has our highest recommendation! He was a pleasure to work with from start to finish, and one of the nicest professionals we have honestly ever met. Thank you for everything! We will forever cherish our photos that you took.
