your wedding day should be the
BEST DAY EVER
It's the first page of your story, the first day of the wild ride that you'll call life: together. I believe it's all about the moments. Those silly, unexpected, and sometimes hopelessly romantic photos are my favorites. It’s so important to me for you to feel like you can be yourselves with me - I want to blend into your guest list. I want to be able catch you being you on the other side of my lens. Open-hearted and free.
From the day you say “yes” to the day you say “I do”, I’m here to document your memories in the way you remember experiencing them. Real. Raw. Unposed.

-
There is no right answer to this one as I am happy to be there for you for 10 hours or 3, but I always advise you to take a look at your timeline, and count backwards from when the DJ or band invites everyone to the dance floor.
-
I love to work with couples that are creative, kind, and laid back. They are excited about their wedding day and willing to place trust in my vision. Oh - and it helps if they’re madly in love. ;)

I have photographed weddings all over New England, and from the West Indies to the Pacific Northwest and many places in between. I love to travel, and am happy to create customized quotes for destination weddings and elopements. I typically require airfare and lodging to be paid for by the client.

No two weddings are alike, but a good rule of thumb is that you can plan to receive about 100 images per hour of photography coverage. If I’m working with a second shooter, it may be a little more than that.

I am a huge advocate of having someone there to “run the show” on your wedding day and always highly recommend at least hiring a day-of coordinator. You’ve worked so hard to plan this day - every thoughtful detail! And I want you to be able to sit back and actually enjoy it. I have worked with many wonderful planners & day-of coordinators, and I am more than happy to share their information. Lawrence and I had a wedding planner for our wedding and it was the best decision we could have made. It’s so wonderful to have an experienced and savvy advocate in your corner while booking vendors, designing and styling, and then of course passing you tissues right before you’re about to walk down the aisle.

Every year I take on a small handful of family lifestyle sessions. I love to capture families in their most natural state of being - whether it's running around the beach at sunset, or a cozy morning in your own home or backyard. Contact me for a custom quote.
“Jamie was hands down the best investment we made in our wedding -- we constantly say that we could have gotten married anywhere and worn anything and Jamie would be able to make us look and feel amazing -- all while capturing the essence of who we are as a couple. Not only is Jamie an incredibly talented photographer, she is the type of person you WANT to spend your wedding with -- I felt like I was spending the day hanging out with a friend, versus awkwardly posing for someone behind a camera. But don't get me wrong, she will also stick to a timeline, and won't be afraid to call out that groomsman on the end who isn't looking at the camera. Exactly the type of person you want taking your photos! If you haven't booked her yet, get on it. I promise, promise, PROMISE you will not be disappointed... and I will be jealous that you get to hang out with her!”
