We were married within 3 months of our first date. “When you know, you know”, they say, and when we knew we wed. Something we bonded over early on was our love for traveling with cameras. After our San Diego courthouse-by-the-sea elopement, we turned our passion for photography into a business. We are both full-time photographers, and we're constantly working to better our craft. We are lucky enough to document weddings of all kinds, from 3 person cliffside sunrise elopements to an intimate mountainside microweddings to larger all-day bashes at one of Maine's beautiful hotels.

I reached out to Brian and Laurel about doing our wedding photos and they were very quick to answer and help me out. We discussed everything I might want for my photos and they made sure to exceed my expectations. We live 14 hours away from Acadia where we wanted to get married and they were so helpful with getting everything in line for me. They created a time schedule for photos, recommended places locally for dinner. We spent the day with Brian and we both felt so comfortable with him. He did an amazing job and made sure to go above and beyond for our wedding day. I could not be happier with the sneak peak photos we have already gotten and I know the rest will be amazing! I highly recommend them for anyone looking to have photos done.

My sister’s wedding was one of the happiest days of my life, and I swear the photos and video are the closest thing to being there again. They literally didn’t miss ANYTHING. From her shoes on the floor to the sparkles on the cake to the way my mom teared up during vows. The video transitions were so smooth, like watching a professional film not just a wedding tape. My sister was so nervous about looking “natural” but she looks like a QUEEN in every single shot. They also took candid pictures of me and I honestly love them so much, which is rare because I usually hate my photos. The dance floor shots are my fav, you can see the joy in every person’s face. They turned one night into art and now we can all relive it forever. I would recommend them to ANYONE planning a wedding.

Hi, I’m Sophia! A Maine based photographer and the face behind Sophia Grace Photography. Specializing in weddings, couples, families, seniors, and all of life’s meaningful milestones. My approach is relaxed, and genuine, with an emphasis on intention. My true to color editing style keeps your images feeling natural and timeless. I want you to feel comfortable in front of my camera, especially on your wedding day. With me, you will always have someone by your side who keeps things calm and enjoyable.

Choosing Sophia Grace Photography was totally worth it. From the start, Sophia kept us in the loop and stayed organized every step of the way, she even worked with our planner to map out the order of events, which gave us real peace of mind. What we didn't expect was how much her presence would add to our day. Your photographer sticks around for everything, but Sophia blended in so naturally that it never felt like we had an extra person following us around. She was fun to be with and made the whole experience enjoyable. We couldn't be happier with how our photos turned out and how smooth the day went because of her.

Hi! I'm Kristin. I would be so honored for you to give me the opportunity to capture your love. Whether it's with the people you love, the person you want to marry, or the work you do that brings you joy. I embrace you for exactly who you are! Let's have some fun and capture it so you can show your love off in the way you want it to be seen.

Not only is Kristin an incredibly talented photographer, but she is an amazing soul to walk through your wedding day with. You don't think about it, but you are around the photographer a lot of the time! While you are getting ready, as the nerves creep up, as you drive up to the venue (or whatever version of those moments are for you). Of course she was professional and delivered gorgeous pictures at the end of it, but she was a calm presence. My husband and I both hate pictures of ourselves and loved the moments she captured, again - she put us at ease! She flittered away at points, and when I got the pictures back wondered where/when was this? How did she get this shot? Overall we told her to focus on the after party portion and I still look back at the pictures and remember that conversation and the reason we were all laughing. One other note - we had an outdoor wedding and she worked with ease and swiftness getting all the obligatory family shots as the sun was setting without a sweat! They all looked amazing too!

My partner and I were looking for an affordable, creative photographer who could work with a couple that had no idea what they were doing—and Johnny was absolutely perfect for us! From the start, Johnny was incredibly flexible and made us feel completely at ease on the day of our wedding. Despite us giving him no direction, he managed to capture beautiful, candid shots that we absolutely adore. If you have a specific vision for your wedding photos, I highly recommend sharing it with him—he’s so talented and I’m confident he’ll bring your ideas to life.

Nostalgia drove me into photography at an early age - and lead me into my studies of photojournalism. We all innately know when we're at a critical juncture in our lives. For me, being able to authentically capture, to preserve those moments in a photograph is such a privilege. I know how much it means to me to be able to look back and say 'this is how things actually happened.' There is beauty in those truths. The kind of folks I work with share that appreciation.

We used Corey for our wedding and engagement pictures. We worked with him for several months and he was always super responsive and clear with expectations, pricing, and giving us ideas. The whole process was made super easy. We knew what his vision was and how to help execute it to get the best results. Expectations for the events were also made clear and put into writing which was nice. Corey also met with us remotely and in person to discuss, always making himself available with our busy schedules. The day of the wedding he arrived ahead of schedule to set up and scope out the venue. All the pictures we wanted were taken, he also captured incredible photos throughout the day which told a story of the wedding. This included us getting ready, setting up the venue, ceremony, reception, and first dances. All the little moments that make the day special are now captured in photos. Looking back through the photos, we're able to recount what we were doing and we just couldn't stop smiling. The photos are all very high quality and we're provided to us just two weeks after our wedding. We expected Corey to deliver great photos based on his portfolio but we were still absolutely blown away. These photos will absolutely be cherished for years to come. If you're looking for a professional to help guide you through the process of having a photographer, who is affordable, easy going, and clear with his artistic vision this is your guy. Thank you so much for doing an extraordinary job documenting our day

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

When my wife and I decided to elope, it was last minute. I was scrambling to find a photographer, flowers, even a place to do it. Enter Jennifer. She was so kind She patiently worked with me while we scrambled, and even helped me with someone who did our florals. She was a fountain of information for places in the area for eloping. Meeting her in person was like meeting an instant friend. She snapped the most gorgeous photos of us, fought the setting sun and the park we chose closing for the evening.

Your wedding is not a performance. It's the way you look at each other when no one's watching. Your hand finding theirs without thinking. My couples care more about what’s real than what looks good on a grid. They want gorgeous photos but also want them to mean something. The couples I work with have depth. Their stories have weight. They want someone behind the lens who sees them. Not just how they look, but who they are. Presence over performance. That's the closest I can get to naming it.

We debated for weeks about investing in a professional team, and I’m so glad we did. Their work is stunning from every angle. The drone footage of our beach ceremony is breathtaking. My only regret is not booking them sooner.

Brayley was hands down the easiest and one of the best hires for our wedding. I found her through the Zola website as a photographer with five stars. I reached out, and she got back to me immediately. Her communication skills were top-notch, and I hired her that same day. My fiancé and I live in the Carolinas, and despite the three-hour time difference, we always felt in the loop, heard, and understood. From the first email to the wedding day, she was amazing. Now let's get to the important stuff... the wedding day. She was incredible. She got all the shots I wanted and then some. We were able to get all the photos done in a timely manner so that we could get back to the party and enjoy ourselves. Brayley captured both staged photos and the best candids. We cannot wait to get the rest of our album back. If you're thinking about hiring Brayley... DO IT!

I'm Marc Sadowski, a New England wedding photographer with 20+ years of experience capturing weddings across New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, and beyond. My approach is candid and documentary — I stay back, watch, and wait for the moments that happen when you forget the camera is there. I learned photography as a photojournalist, where you get one shot or you miss it forever. That instinct drives everything I do on your wedding day.

Hiring Marc was honestly one of the best choices we made for our wedding. Right off the bat, he was super organized and easy to communicate with. We had a multiple of calls/meetings before the big day to go over our schedule and what we wanted everything to look like, which gave us so much peace of mind. On the day of, he was amazing to work with. Neither of us wanted to feel stiff or forced into weird poses, and he completely respected that. He stuck to what made us feel comfortable, and it made the whole process feel natural and fun. Plus, he is ridiculously talented and brought such a great energy that made the entire day feel magical. We're so grateful for him!

The album and video are such an incredible keepsake I could cry happy tears every time. The photographers captured the overall mood so well, and the details are lovely. The video includes audio bites of people joking and that gives it extra soul. The styling suggestions they gave (for light and backdrop) were spot on. Family photos were handled quickly and with elegance, even the large extended ones. The highlight trailer is something we shared with relatives who couldn’t join and they loved it. The prints have archival quality and will hold up for years. I can’t recommend them enough for someone who wants a wedding archive that feels genuine.

I think there’s a real absence of authenticity in today’s world. Everywhere we look, people are polishing themselves into a perfect image for the internet. But that’s not where the beauty is. The beauty lives in the real moments — the big, loud, messy, emotional, human ones you can’t stage or script. That’s what I chase. Since 2016, I’ve been documenting weddings for couples who want to feel present, relaxed, and fully themselves. I gravitate toward the candid, the unplanned, the way a glance turns into laughter and a quiet moment becomes unforgettable.

Steve has been excellent and so so fun to work with! I was specifically looking for a photographer who could capture the feeling in candidate, and Steve delivered (see wedding and engagement photos below)! Steve is super communicative, friendly, organized, professional, and a genuinely kind person. If you’re looking for a photographer, I strongly recommend reaching out to Steve — you won’t be disappointed!
