    Seriously, book Jem now!!!!

    I truly cannot hype Jem up enough!! She is the most incredible photographer and is such a lovely and fun person that guests at our wedding assumed she was our friend who we asked to take pictures for us! We did both an engagement shoot and our wedding with her and the photos from both turned out absolutely incredible. She really understood our vision and the pictures capture everything we wanted: decor, colors, energy, and especially the pure joy we felt on our wedding day. She was so on top of our timeline and we were through family and bridal party portraits in no time (which was important to us) and any time we left for private portraits, it felt like a fun escape from the craziness to soak in the excitement of being married. She really made everything fun! She also has such important insights about small details of the wedding day, taking a moment for just ourselves after the ceremony and encouraging us to do a private last dance after our reception which honestly was one of the highlights of the entire day (in both photos and happiness). Guests are still complimenting us on her energy and raw talent after seeing the photos. If you’re still looking for your perfect photographer, LOOK NO FURTHER!

    The most talented and fun photographer of all time!

    I am literally sitting here choked up trying to find the words to express how absolutely amazing Jem is! It is clear to see she is extremely talented in her profession - but what isn't clear when looking at her portfolio is how fun, professional, and badass she truly is. To say things were running behind on my wedding day would be an understatement - and with out Jem there I think I would have been an absolute wreck. She kept me calm, laughing, and assured the entire day. She was firm with the other vendors and guests to get people moving to where they would be. Basically Jem was also our coordinator with out actually being hired as our coordinator LOL - and I don't know what I would have done with out her that day! We have only received our sneak peeks so far - but I already cherish every single photo she has sent over. They are absolutely BEAUTIFUL! My husband and I are not the most natural in front of the camera but she kept us laughing - and on top of how happy we were that day - you can really see the joy shine through in every single photo. People keep commenting how I "clearly had no fun that day" in sarcasm when they see the photos because we are both smiling ear to ear in every single one. She had so many wonderful ideas for photos - and worked with the insane heat wave we were experiencing to make sure everyone wasn't fully melting by the time photos were over. I will hire Jem over and over again - she will be my family photographer until the end of days because there is no one as amazing as she is! THANK YOU JEM for everything! We truly love you!!!!

    The best wedding photographer in New England!

    Jem was one of the most valuable members of our vendor team! Experienced and knowledgeable, she guided us as relative amateurs through the steps of preparing and executing the day we had planned. We appreciated her professionalism balanced with great humor and genuine excitement – even though she does hundreds of weddings, she still made us feel special. We felt so relaxed taking photos with her on what could have been a much more stressful day. We have already been to one close friend’s wedding where Jem was the photographer, and we are looking forward to more in the future.

    Hire Jem, I repeat, HIRE Jem!!

    We won an engagement photo session with Jem via instagram which was an incredible experience! Jem is phenomenal in every way. Our session was amazing, the photos were ready very quickly and they were all fantastic. Her gallery site is so easy to navigate & we obviously booked her for our wedding too! Cannot wait to have her capture our special day!

    Jemima Richards's reply:

    Thank you thank you THANK YOU! We absolutely cannot wait to celebrate your wedding with you next year!

    And I'm gonna say it again.. you need to HIRE JEM!

    Working with Jemima was an absolute dream! I found her through Instagram and as I read through her website, I just knew she was the wedding photographer for me. She is an absolute professional who was so easy to work with and communicative from the initial inquiry all the way to the delivery of our wedding gallery. On the actual day, she will go above and beyond for you - just like a friend. She gave sneak peeks the day after the wedding and our full gallery after 4 weeks which is AMAZING. But when I saw the photographs she took of our day, I shed tears of happiness! She captured all the PERFECT moments and I barely even noticed her taking them! We had a church wedding and she was absolutely professional and reverent to church decorum!

    Planning a small wedding during a pandemic can still be stressful but Jem was so flexible when it came to last-minute changes. As a bride on a budget, photography was my highest priority/splurge but Jem's packages are priced so fairly especially for what you get!

    Long story short: She is an absolute professional who is also friendly and on your side. Her photography was absolutely stunning. I would highly recommend her to any bride out there looking for a wedding photographer.

    Hire Jemima!

    Jem was the best decision we made planning our wedding from the beginning.

    She was helpful, responsive and kind from the first day. During the wedding day she checked in on us, was flexible, and felt like a guest!

    The pictures she captured show every moment perfectly. From the happy tears, the laughs, to the surprises.

    We could not be happier, just save yourself the stress and reach out to Jem!

    Call Jemima!

    Jemima is amazing! From my initial inquiry, to her patience with some last minute plans, she was so easy to work with. My partner and I hired her for a session and she made us feel so comfortable and she captured a ton of gorgeous images. We wanted our shoot to be authentic and rich and her shots and editing delivered just that! We received a sneak peek of the images a few days later and the final images came back much faster than expected. If you are looking for a chill photographer who creates beautiful photos at a fair price, call Jem. I’m currently wracking my brain for another excuse to book her!

    She worked with us through the pandemic times and made our special day that much better!! She is very personable and works with you where you are at. Couldn’t sing higher praises!

    Second to NONE.

    I wish I could give Jem 10 stars instead of 5, especially for flexibility when obviously in the time of Covid, changes had to be made regularly.

    It's sounds cheesy, but working with Jem was an actual dream come true. I hate even using the term "working with" because nothing felt like work.

    Not only did she send us tons of helpful planning documents and a sweet surprise before our engagement photos, help my (now) husband surprise me during our engagement photos with a second proposal, risk Covid times to photograph our home wedding...she also made two people who aren't super camera comfortable feel normal and natural within a few minutes of our meeting.
    Jem is fun and funny and loves people for all the weird that they can be and loves your love for all the unique ways that it exists.
    She just makes the whole process so easy and obviously, on top of all that, how about HOW BEAUTIFUL THE PHOTOS ARE?! Also the turnaround time? Second to none. I've had friends wait 3-6 months for their wedding photos. Jem however returned our album to us within 24 hours. Of course, it's worth noting that our 170 person party had to be reduced to an 8 person gathering in our apartment so there weren't AS MANY photos to edit, but still...very impressive.
    I just can't say enough good things about Jem. Without a doubt, we will hire her for ANY event we ever have, and we suggest her to anyone we know in need of a photographer.

    Jemima and her team are incredible

    We used Jem and her team for photos and video at our wedding. If I could give them each a thousand stars, I would. From Jen’s first email response that included a gif of the Target lady from SNL I knew she was the photographer for us. She helped calm me down when our engagement photo weather turned out muddy instead of snowy and our wedding day had fog instead of snow. (Ladies, pray for foggy weather because it’s insanely gorgeous) She and Dylan are professional, fun, blend into a crowd and most importantly take incredible photos and video. I cannot say enough positive things about working with this insanely talented group.

    The best !

    The only thing I knew I wanted on my wedding day was really great photos... oh yeah, and maybe to marry my best friend :) no seriously, I was ready to elope-completely alone- but my fiancé wanted a more traditional wedding. This coupled with the fact that my dad has been talking about walking me down the aisle for as long as I could remember got me searching all over for the best vendors- and boy, I definitely found the best when I found jem! She was truly amazing. My husband and I are innately shy and uncomfortable around most people but our time with jem was more like hanging out with a really good friend then anything else. She made us feel at ease, we had tons of fun, and the photos were better then I could have ever dreamed of. Stop, don’t go any further- jem will be the best decision you make on your wedding day for sure (except for the whole “I do” part that is!)

    Best Day Ever

    Jemima and her husband Dylan photographed our wedding this past November and I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this duo. My husband and I are not exactly the most comfortable people in front of the camera but both Jemima and Dylan made us feel at ease. They are helpful, talented and also hilarious. They captured beautiful candids as well as posed photos. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Awesome couple. Awesome photos. Awesome photographers.

    Above and beyond our expectations!

    Jemima is AMAZING! Leading up to our wedding she was super professional and communicative – we have a great kick-off call so she could learn more about us as a couple, she asked us exactly what we wanted/expected for our big day, and she clearly communicated so I trusted that everything was taken care of and didn't have to worry.

    The day of, she was even better. She was friendly and relaxed (even when dealing with wrangling family) and was willing to do whatever it took to get the photos we wanted (we got married in Boston and dragged her all over the city taking pictures). During the wedding I barely even noticed when she was around taking photos.

    And our photos are awesome – we love, love, love them. She perfectly captured us as a couple and the vibe of our wedding day. The gallery she delivered was extensive with so many great shots to choose from: beautiful portraits, fun candids, and all the important moments from our wedding.

    We loved working with Jemima and I would highly, highly recommend. I really can't say enough good things.

    amazing photographer

    I add Jem photograph my wedding. She was fun, energetic and creative with photos. She also listened to what we wanted and was always willing to take any photo we asked for. So far we got a sneak peak of our photos and love them! We cant wait to see them all.

    The Best Photographer

    I have no idea where to begin my praise for Jemima Richards. She was referred to us by our friend (who also worked with her for his wedding and raves about her) and I can easily say she was the best wedding vendor decision my husband and I made. Jemima kept cool under pressure, dealt with the many personalities of our families, and was prepared and punctual. Also, her photos are STUNNING! We loved that our photos don't look stuffy or staged. Jemima was able to capture beautiful moments throughout the wedding and that made all the difference for us. We got our "sneak peak" photos within 24 hours (in fact, maybe even less than that) and the rest of our album was ready just a few short weeks later. Seriously, I can't recommend her highly enough. She's just the best. It's a fact.

    Made our best day better!

    Jemima and her husband Dylan were more than wedding photographers, it truly felt like we were working with old friends. They managed to fit into our wedding party perfectly while simultaneously capturing incredible photos of our day. The number of compliments we received on how they worked the wedding was overwhelming. And that doesn't even speak to the quality of their work! Every picture was frame worthy. There are way too many stressful parts to planning a wedding. Just hire Jemima now and move on to the next part of your to-do list!

    We would work with Jem again in a heartbeat!

    We hired Jemima based almost entirely off of the vibe we got from her website - she seemed relaxed and fun, while also knowledgeable of her craft. Luckily, she's right on brand! She far exceeded our expectations from start to finish. Our initial meeting in a coffee shop felt less like a sales pitch and more like meeting a new friend, she put us at ease in our engagement session, and all of our friends and family raved about her at the wedding. She is a calming force and a joy to be around. We will definitely look to her again for future shoots!

    Wonderful Wedding Photographer

    We hired Jemima for our January 2019 wedding and had the best experience. She put me completely at ease through the whole hiring process, her site was very easy to use for hiring and viewing pictures, and she captured the pictures and moments that were important to us. The pictures are beautiful, and we're so happy with the results. The package we used included a second photographer, her husband Dylan, and he was incredibly helpful. They were so nice, we would have had them both as guests if we'd met them a few months before.

    Only hire her if you want to absolutely love your photos

    We eloped in NYC at the marriage bureau/city hall and she helped us navigate the process as she had experience with other city hall weddings. I hardly noticed her snapping away and it resulted in amazing candid shots that captured the nervous/excited/happy energy of the day. All communication was effortless leading up to the actual day. She made sure we touched as many of the locations and shots I desired based off of some inspiration photos I sent to her prior. She also was a real trooper to do it all while it was 10 degrees out! She sent a few sneak peek images very promptly after and I was obsessed, to the point of forgetting that I would soon be receiving hundreds more. I was content with those 9 photos because they were *that* good. The full link to all the photos came almost exactly a week later and I am so in love. My only wish is that I had more needs for a photographer like Jemima to follow me around in my everyday life.

    Jemima did both the engagement session and the photography for our wedding. The photos from each event are spectacular! She has an eye for creativity and lighting that result in images that look natural and gorgeous. Throughout the entire process, she was professional, flexible, fun, and all around amazing! I’m still getting compliments from our guests who are blown away by how great Jemima is and how beautiful the photos came out.

    She even had our “sneak peek” ready on the night of our wedding and we received the final edited photos back so quickly!

    We enthusiastically recommend Jemima for any of your wedding or photography needs!

    It was our first time getting photos taken so I was a bit nervous. But Jem made me feel instantly comfortable and made the whole experience fun! My photos are so beautiful and I will cherish them forever.
