AMAZING Photography!!

I honestly don't think I can fit all of the good things I have to say about Linda into this review! She was AMAZING from day one. Linda is so passionate about what she does and is so good at making every couple feel comfortable and special throughout the entire planning process. She goes above and beyond to ensure you get the best possible experience.
We had to postpone our big celebration due to COVID, meaning we were lucky enough to work with Linda for our engagement photos, our intimate ceremony, and the big wedding/reception we had planned. Every single photo is beautiful and Linda captured 3 different moments in our lives that we will cherish forever.
When you book with Linda, you are not just booking a photographer. You are booking someone who will give you advice (like what to wear for engagement photos or making a day of schedule) as well as someone who will make you comfortable in front of a camera. My husband and I had so much fun taking photos- something we never would have said before! Our photos are not stiff formals with no emotion. Every photo captured our emotions at the time, from happy tears during the first look & ceremony to pure joy on the dance floor.
Linda will be one of the most professional vendors you work with and you will not be disappointed with your experience. We highly recommend Linda and can't wait to work with her again in the future!!

I could not imagine working with another photographer for our big day! I cherish all of the memories she captured, and she captured them all so beautifully! Linda is an absolute sweetheart and makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. I love all of the unique shots she takes, especially the candid moments. I look forward to working with her in the future for maternity sessions, family photos, etc.

Linda was absolutely amazing throughout the whole wedding planning process and especially on the big day! She is organized, calm and detail-oriented! She has many package options that should fit any couples needs for their wedding day. She also offers an engagement session as part of the packages, which is a great time for you to meet her and become comfortable in front of the camera! She will tell you exactly where and how to stand, when to kiss, etc. to make the photos look natural! Her packages also offer a second shooter, which is a great addition and something I found other photographers do not always offer. Unfortunately, the second shooter was put on bed rest a few days prior to our wedding. Linda kept us informed and took every step to try to find another shooter. Although she ultimately did the wedding alone - I was never worried because she was so confident in her work and abilities! We are so pleased with the way our wedding photos came out and with the album that she designed! She always adds a personalized touch along that way that makes you feel extra special!

If I had to do it all over again, I would choose Linda every single time! She was amazing! For our engagement shoot, she was so flexible, coming down to MA a few months after having her daughter, to spend an hour getting to know us and photographing our love. Linda was great at responding to our emails and keeping in contact with us periodically for the entire year plus before our wedding. She was always so organized with everything that I was never stressed out with anything photography related. The day of our wedding, Linda was on time and made sure everything important was documented (even when I totally forgot we had to cut the cake and my favorite song was on) and she stayed on point with the timeline we created. We never rushed through any pictures - first look, wedding party, family formals, just married, etc. The day of our wedding wasn’t the warmest, but Linda never complained about being outside on the water, as it was my vision to have the best of both worlds - beach and foliage. Linda was so wonderful all throughout our wedding day but what was even better is that we received all of our pictures within a week. Linda promised them within 2 weeks, so receiving them in a week, was a very pleasant surprise! So many of my friends were waiting for their pictures for at least 4 weeks going with other photographers but I am so happy we have been able to relive our wedding so soon afterwards! The pictures came out beautiful! I couldn’t have asked for anything more. My husband and I are so happy to have all digital copies of the photos so we can pick and choose which ones to print, all while enjoying the others forever. I highly recommend Linda. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! She is a wonderful person and an amazing photographer! You will not be disappointed!

Stop here, Linda is THE BEST. So you're getting married, congrats! Scrolling through, hoping to find a photographer, the one person that will be responsible for documenting your big day, the pictures you will share with your children and grandchildren. Scary thing. I did the same. It was important to me that every moment of my big day was captured, especially that moment when my Dad and I stepped out of his 69 Mustang and my almost husband saw me for the first time. So, second shooter was super important to me. Linda was one of the few that listed a second shooter as standard, she seemed to have pretty good looking photos, was a reasonable price, and was available, so we booked her knowing very little with no recommendation. Guys, LINDA IS AMAZING. She pays such attention to all of the details and takes shots I didn't even know I wanted. And she does it all in such a way that I had guests comment they didn't even notice the photographer, let alone realize there was two. The included engagement session is so great because you get used to being in front of her camera and become comfortable with her posing you. Then she takes those and edits them and lets you pick the style of photo you like best, be it black and white, vivid color, soft color, etc. That way, she can make sure the pictures from your biggest day are your style and what you like. My two older brothers both had well-known and expensive photographers for their weddings; Linda blew them out of the water. She's the easiest to work with, super professional, and her work is UNBELIEVABLE. I will forever be so thankful to her for our wonderful photos to look back on. STOP looking for anyone else and book her. And did I mention she was eight months pregnant in 85 degree heat and was still the best?? I'm completely convinced there is no one better!!!

Linda was the most professional vendor, by far, that we worked with during our wedding process! She always responded to emails swiftly and she was so accommodating with our requests. Linda's organization skills are top-notch-- throughout the process I hardly needed to do any work with details, as she was always on top of things. I especially enjoyed the sweet and thoughtful presents that she sent us, aimed to help de-stress and enjoy each other during all the wedding planning. Linda made us feel so comfortable in front of a camera! Her work is phenomenal--- you will not be disappointed!!

We cannot recommend Linda enough as a wedding photographer! She was wonderful to work with and so helpful! We were pretty sure we didn’t want engagement photos even though they came with our package. Linda urged us to do it as an opportunity to get to know each other and to get a feel for what we wanted from our wedding photos. We were so happy that we got them done! We had a great time working with and getting to know Linda (even though it was pretty cold) and the pictures we got back were amazing and assured us we had chosen the right photographer!

Linda was very professional and passionate throughout the whole day. She and her second shooter went out of the their way to make sure everyone was comfortable and made an extra effort to find unique places to take pictures of the two of us. During our reception Linda came and grabbed us and asked if we wouldn’t mind stepping outside and taking a few pictures out in the Gazebo. We LOVE those pictures and really loved the opportunity for the two of us to sneak away and have some time together!

The turn around time to get our photos back was super fast! The week following our wedding we already had some sneak peeks and a few weeks later we had the whole album. We are having a blast going through them and are having a really hard time picking out our favorites because they are all fantastic!

Linda was thoughtful, responsive and enthusiastic throughout the entire planning process and especially on our wedding day. We loved Linda, our photos and the whole experience and we know you will too! Thanks Linda!

My husband and I can not say enough positive things about working with Linda! We reached out to her based on a recommendation from another photographer and are so happy Linda was available to work with us. We were located in Boston, the wedding in western Massachusetts, and Linda was located in Maine. We were able to Skype with her to get to know each other and talk out all the logistics. We chose her package which included engagement photos, a full day coverage on our wedding day, with a second shooter, all of the digital files and a photo album of our photos. Linda was so professional, quick to respond, and answered all of the questions I had that popped up randomly. She drove down to MA to shoot our engagement photos and was so much fun to work with! On our wedding day she and her second shooter drove down from Maine and were with us the whole day. Even though Linda was very pregnant and it was HOT that day she was in such great spirits and helped to keep the whole day moving. I am so grateful for all of the amazing photos Linda captured that day, and her turnaround time for the final photos was so quick. We received all of the digital files before we even got back from our honeymoon. I can't recommend Linda enough. She is so passionate about her photography and making sure to capture all of the perfect moments, and you can tell she actually cares about the couples she works with. You'd be a fool not to work with her for your big day ;)

Linda is the definition of a professional! She is accommodating to your needs on your big day, all while getting the best shots that you may not have even thought you wanted! Little details will not go unnoticed and the turnaround for your photos will be unmatched. I highly recommend reaching out to her for your photography needs.

Linda was nothing short of amazing! We were married a little over a week ago and we already have our photos! I have so many favorites and I'm not sure how we will ever decide what to get copies of. Linda is very professional, friendly, and she's a Harry Potter nerd, so of course she is FABULOUS! Thank you, Linda, for making Ray and I feel comfortable and beautiful.

I really can not rave enough about Linda. My now husband and I were having a really challenging time finding someone who fit our needs. Linda is kind, professional, engaging, and takes amazing pictures. Linda helped make our day special and gave us the photos that will help us remember it for decades to come!

Oh my word, I can't say enough good things about Linda! I had a destination wedding, so my only way of finding photographers was through Wedding Wire and Linda was the first to respond and her first words were not "Thanks for the consideration, here's my details." Her first words were "Oh I'm so excited for you! Congratulations, tell me all the details." From that moment, she made me feel like a princess (which I do not expect by any stretch of the imagination) by consistently showing me that she was thinking and cared about me. When we got there, she made us feel comfortable and asked what she could do to help us get ready for the wedding. The day of, she made it effortless to get pictures and she was quick as well. After the wedding, she had some of (if not all of) the photos done within a week and they were stunning. I would go back to Maine just to have her take my photos!

If you are looking for someone who is kind, generous, professional and exceeds expectations, then do not look further than Linda. She not only is the best photographer I have ever had the pleasure of encountering, she also delivered the best customer experience I have ever encountered in any professional setting. Thank you SO MUCH!!

Linda did a wonderful job making us feel comfortable. Not a fan of having photos done, but she did amazing work and put my wife and I at ease. She listened to what we wanted and took great care in making sure every all our photo requests were met. I would highly recommend her!

Linda was incredible! The quality of her work is excellent, and she is such a pleasure to work with. She does a great job of taking the stress out of the photography process, and stayed in touch with us as we were going through the wedding planning process to offer support!

My fiancé and I couldn't be any happier with Linda. She is the most down to earth person and she makes you instantly feel comfortable with a camera. Linda, has already gone above and beyond and we've only shot our engagement photos with her. Her quality of work and responsiveness are top notch, you can see her passion in everything she does for her clients. We can't wait for her to shoot our wedding in the fall!

Linda has a great eye for capturing beautiful moments with her camera. My fiancé and I had our engagement photos done this fall and are so pleased with the results! We can't wait for Linda to photograph our wedding this fall! She got all the photos to us in less than 2 weeks after the shoot, made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera (coming from 2 people who normally hate having their picture taken), and was super professional. She also sent a cute photo album from the shoot along with a little gift for the two of us. Would recommend to anyone looking for a personable, down-to-earth photographer who truly cares about her clients.

Linda was amazing! The photos she took were simply stunning! She worked to find a packaged that worked for us since we were not having a traditional wedding. I would highly highly recommend Linda. I plan to use her as my family evolves and grows!

Linda is top notch! The photos she took, which we received back within the week, were absolutely amazing. She went above and beyond - we had an issue with the weather and getting married outside (we eloped!) -- Linda stepped into action and found us the most magical barn ever to get married in. We will be using her again in the future for family photos!!

Linda Barry Photography is terrific! The owner, Linda, went above and beyond for us on not only on our wedding day but even before the actual event! From traveling a distance for the engagement session to sending us special gifts after booking her service. We LOVE the photos and will definitely book her again!!

Linda photographed an anniversary session for my husband and I. We came to town last minute, but she was able to squeeze us in! She was great communicating and getting us exactly what we wanted! We had a great time and are very happy with the results! She also made it incredibly easy for us to get our pictures. Since we don't live in the area this is a big deal. Very happy we went with Linda!

Linda was incredible! She went above and beyond (literally) at our wedding. She got shots a girl could only dream of! She came so well prepared, my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing. I would absolutely recommend Linda Barry Photography, being a photographer myself, I had very high expectations and she exceeded them!

Linda photographed my wedding in June 2013. I loved every part of her work!! She captured moments that we will cherish for a lifetime! The pictures are absolutely stunning, and we had our C.D. with hundreds of photos back in a very short time. Linda also did our engagement photos on the coast in Maine in the very early spring, you would never know it was windy and freezing, they came out amazing!!

Linda did both our engagement as well as wedding. We could have not had better results. She made us feel so relaxed, we laughed through most of our engagement pictures. She had some many creative ideas. For our wedding she was able to capture so many moments, many of which we couldn't see ourselves throughout the day. We had a great mix of funny candid and formal shots. We couldn't speak more highly off her and her talent.
