    Boston City hall - Isha & Shawn

    Zhaun has an eye for details and moreover he made an effort to understand our vision.
    He can literally make a ‘so called ugly building, look beautiful for you’.
    He loves to experiment so if you are someone who wants unconventional pictures, this is your guy.

    Wedding photographer

    Zhaun was absolutely amazing to work with! My husband and I found him on Instagram and were so impressed with his work. We knew right away that his creativity & style were exactly what we wanted for both our engagement shoot & wedding day. Once booked, Zhaun was truly with us through every step of the way. He relieved so much of our stress as he helped to create our wedding day timeline. His support and guidance made us feel so secure. He also made connections with our other vendors, ensuring everyone was on the same page.

    My husband and I could not be happier with our photo gallery! Zhaun sent us a ‘sneak peak’ only a few days after the wedding while we were on our honeymoon! We were pleasantly surprised with how quick the entire photo gallery was finished. We are so grateful to have a gallery of beautiful, classy & elegant photos from the best night of our life with our favorite people!

    10/10 Photographer

    Not only is Zhaun an incredibly talented photographer, but he immediately made us feel at ease in front of the camera. We fell in love with Zhaun’s documentary style of shooting. We didn’t want our photographs to feel super staged or posed and Zhuan effortlessly captured our intimate moments together.

    We hired Zhaun to shoot both our engagement photos (highly recommend doing this) and on our wedding day. Zhaun was patient with us and offered constructive advice (in funny ways) to get us to relax in front of the camera. He was all on board when we asked him to wake up early on one of the longest days of the year for a sunrise session (100% worth it).

    As we approached our wedding day. He was in communication with us to help us stay organized. On the wedding day he was a calming presence and we loved having him around. He kept us on track (timing-wise) and didn’t falter when our seemingly sunny day started raining during our first look. I now look back on these photos as some of my favorites from the day. I love how his photographs told a story of the day from a backseat approach. He was adaptable, and fluid with the little changes that happened throughout the day (because surprise! Nothing ever goes as planned). Our wedding day was the best day ever and I wish we could go back and relive the moment all over again! I would recommend Zhaun to all of my friends and family and I hope one day we get the chance to work together again.

    Much love,
    Dominique & Keven

    May 2023 Wedding Photography

    Zhaun was an absolutely incredible wedding photographer! On the day-of, he had such a calm and efficient manner that put everyone at ease. He was able to get all the shots we wanted while not spending too much time exclusively on photos, so we could spend time with our guests. We got comments from other vendors and from guests about how great he was and how hard he was working to get the perfect shots. He gave the perfect amount of direction and instructions, and helped everyone to look their best! We’re not big photo people, so were quite nervous to be in front of the camera. But he made it feel super natural and fun, and it ended up being a surprisingly amazing part of the day! When we got the final photos back, we were totally blown away by how they turned out. They are absolutely gorgeous, and Zhaun was able to pick up the beauty of the space and light perfectly, as well as capture lots of candid moments. Zhaun was wonderful, and we would absolutely recommend him to anyone having a New England wedding!!

    Absolutely fantastic photographer!

    To say that my wedding was a literal dream come true is an understatement. I have had the opportunity to see Zhaun's work from afar being a wedding planner and at other's weddings and I have known for a long time that I would like him to be my photographer. It was an absolute joy to work with Zhaun! He did both our engagement and wedding photos and throughout everything he helped me to feel rooted, secure, joyful, and flat out THRILLED by the pictures he captured. Zhaun is very relaxed, confidence boosting, knowledgeable, reassuring, and fun. If I could do my wedding all over again, I would hire Zhaun (and all the people that made my wedding a reality) IN AN INSTANT! I hope that I can hire Zhaun in the future for other lifetime events!

    Stop your search, book Zhaun now!

    Zhaun’s work speaks for itself - it’s his professionalism and knowledge that sets him apart even more! From the first video call, my husband and I knew he would be the photographer we chose. We started with engagement photos and Zhaun immediately knew how to keep a photo shy couple smiling and at ease. As a stressed bride, Zhaun was a comfortable and calm presence, cracking jokes to ease tension, reminding me to eat, and take time to enjoy the special moments. He was never in the way but somehow captured everything! We cannot thank Zhaun enough for capturing our special day flawlessly, and to anyone still searching, stop now! Book Zhaun!

    Excellent photographer!

    Zhaun was incredible to work with! He took time to get to know me and my husband - to understand our preferences and our personalities. He really helped create the experience that we were looking for. As the photographer for our engagement and wedding photos, he helped us ease into the process, feel comfortable, and have so much fun! He scoped out the areas we were interested in so that we could capitalize on the spaces that we loved, and he added great creative perspective. 10/10 recommend. He was super communicative and responsive which really help put me at ease. He helped us create a timeline for the day of, was mindful of family dynamics, and helped us have so much fun!

    Could not recommend enough!!

    Working with Zhaun was a dream. From the first interview to the final moments at the wedding we felt as though we were in extremely good hands. Communication was prompt and we never had any questions as to what the photography plan was since Zhaun tended to everything meticulously. We didn’t get to meet Zhaun in person until the day of our wedding but he melded perfectly with our group keeping everyone in good spirits and at ease for the picture taking process. He wrangled a huge wedding party (18 of us) and extended family for gorgeous pictures as storm clouds rolled in. He completed everything before even 1 drop of rain fell. We received our sneak peek gallery in less than a week after the date and wow, we are blown away. Zhaun goes above and beyond for his clients to ensure an amazing experience. His passion for his art is clear and we feel so blessed to have worked with him.

    Zhaun is simply the best!

    My husband and aunt planned our wedding in 6 weeks - yes 6!! Would not recommend but WOULD highly recommend Zhaun as a photographer. He came through for us in a stressful time and made the whole process SO easy, fun and special for us. Day of, he was so professional, calming, instructive and fun. We received our photos and love them all so much. Forever grateful for him and his talents.

    The most wonderful photographer you could work with!

    In all honesty, there is no other photographer who we would have wanted to work with on our wedding day... You should definitely choose Zhaun as your photographer!

    We found Zhaun through our friends who were married in June of 2021. After speaking with them and seeing their photos we reached out to him and after 30 minutes of speaking with him, we booked him! He is so outrageously talented and fun to work with. Neither of us had any experience in front of a camera but he is full of little tips that allowed us to feel at ease, be natural and have fun in front of the camera. In addition, he is a calm presence, works incredibly hard and has such a fantastic eye that he captures wonderful moments that you will cherish forever.

    In hindsight, the photographer is one of the most important people at your wedding and I believe you can put your full trust in Zhaun!

    Book him now

    From Haley:

    When you're planning a wedding, you make LOTS of decisions - on napkin colors, table decor, seating charts. But our very favorite decision was booking Zhaun Frias to do our photos.

    He is a talented photographer with so much creativity and artistic vision - but he's also extremely professional and reliable. Here are just a few of the many things Zhaun did that made him stand out above any other photographer:

    1) From our initial meeting, Zhaun was extremely interested in understanding what our style was and what we wanted our photos to portray. He took the time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple. We had several conversations about what we wanted from both our engagement and wedding photos (classy, simple, elegant, timeless, but also FUN) - and he delivered our exact vision.
    2) He helped COACH us during our engagement session and helped us feel super comfortable posing (we are not professionals, LOL). He did a great job making sure we felt confident.
    3) He was communicative, responsive, and helpful each step of the way. He was always willing to hop on a call or go back & forth over email. Def not one of those "radio silence" vendors you hear about! He even helped us plan our wedding timeline!
    4) He went above and beyond on the wedding day - he helped all the bridesmaids move their suitcases and dresses for photos and just made everyone feel super comfortable during the shoot. He did great with our entire extended family and helped us get the shots we needed!
    5) THE DELIVERY - he delivered a "sneak peak" of photos just a few days after the wedding. All the photos were stunning and super high quality.

    We loved Zhaun, would work with him again, and would recommend him to anyone. There is literally nothing bad to say about him.

    From Stephen:
    I don't typically care about photos, but Zhaun's photography was OUTSTANDING. He did a great job directing our family, keeping us on schedule, and delivering a quality product that will last a lifetime. We were super grateful to have him be our photographer and would definitely recommend him to everyone (we've already referred him to several friends who have booked him already).

    10 out of 10 experience

    We don't even know where to begin with our recommendation of Zhaun Frias Photography. From our first, informal email exchange with Zhaun, we knew he was going to be professional, hard-working and dedicated to our wedding and needs. Zhaun was punctual in his responses to us, and wanted to really know about us, our relationship, our wedding and who we were as a couple. He made the whole wedding planning process easier, and much more enjoyable. He sent us updates, helpful resources, and really took the time to listen to our vision for our wedding photos. In the days leading up to our wedding, Zhaun responded to each email, text, and last minute photo suggestion immediately and with excitement. He made us feel comfortable behind the camera and was beyond creative with his shots. The photos blew us away. Within 5 days we had a sneak peek, and by the 1 month mark, had our full album (which he organized into categories which made my teacher-type a heart beam!) I wish we could get married again so we could have Zhaun capture our day. I said it already, but the best wedding decision we made was having Zhaun behind the camera.

    Just wow! No regrets.

    We decided to get eloped prior to have the big wedding celebration so that we didn't have to worry about the paperwork. We still didn't have a photographer and only had 2 days to figure out who that was going to be. I reached out to Zhaun via Instagram message, and luckily, Zhaun was down to accept last minute! Zhaun made us feel extremely comfortable in front of the camera, has a very hospitable and welcoming personality, and really puts in the effort to ask questions and communicate as much as possible. He is also very professional! Lastly, the edits to our elopement photos were such a quick turnaround -- ONE DAY! The editing was stunning and authentic, and we received a lot of compliments from our friends and families. Overall, we had such a memorable experience with Zhaun (if we could rate him more than 5 stars, we would!). WE HAVE NO REGRETS (and you won't either)! Thank you so much Zhaun!

    Hire Zhaun!!

    Zhaun was a star at our wedding! He was a tremendous help as we planned our wedding on an unprecedented COVID schedule (less than 3 months). Both during the event and several months later, our family members can't stop raving at how professional, efficient, poised, and skilled Zhaun was. When it comes down to it, we hired Zhaun becuase we loved his photography, and he did not disappoint. He's skilled at both setting shots so that we look way more beautiful than we actually are as well as capturing the candid moments that we keep on going back to. We've gone through the slideshow with different family members multiple times since our wedding and they've been a wonderful way to remember our day. Hire Zhaun!

    A breath of fresh air.

    Let me just start by saying; Zhaun is a breath of fresh air. Planning our wedding was stressful until we hired Zhaun. He was probably the biggest help in planning out our day. It is almost like we got a photographer / coordinator in one. From planning out a time line and coordinating with our day off coordinator it was such a relief. Everyone at our wedding commented on Zhaun and his second shooters friendliness and and the level of fun they brought to all of our guests. I don't think Zhaun missed a single second of shooting with all of the pictures we got, and how was the quality of every single photo from our special day? Breathtaking. Our photos could not have come out any better. We are 3 months out and we can not stop looking at them. I would never, from this point forward, take any of my photography business elsewhere. Zhaun we love you and thank you for being there to document our special day.

    Zhaun saved our wedding from COVID-19!!

    We are so glad that we hired Zhaun as the photographer for our wedding. From the beginning of our conversations he was made it clear that he was willing to do whatever it took to make our day special and he definitely did. Three weeks before our wedding date COVID-19 caused us to change all our plans. We cancelled our original date, moved everything up two weeks and had a small ceremony with only 9 people present, including us! Zhaun understood the stress we were under, losing our "dream wedding" and helped us make our day as special as possible.

    Zhaun captured everything that was wonderful and special about our wedding. Looking back at the photos he took, we don't remember any of the stress, only the beautiful moments and feelings we experienced. We recommend Zhaun not only because he’s a talented photographer but also because a wonderful person to work with!

    Consultation for our September 2021 wedding

    Zhaun was overall professional, understanding, flexible, and responsive. He truly kept me at ease with his answers and professionalism. We loved his personality, work and passion towards photography. Great price and amazing work ethic. I know with this pandemic, things could seem kind of hard to plan for a wedding, but he made it seem very easy lol. We enjoyed talking and laughing with him and can’t wait to take our engagement pictures with him as well as our wedding day.

    The best decision for our big day!

    Zhaun was INCREDIBLE. He was incredibly organized, thorough, punctual, detail-oriented, personable, and a blast to work with. His photos are beautiful and captured our personalities wonderfully. Zhaun was flexible (we literally got married in a hurricane this summer) and took the lead in preparing us for our big day. We highly recommend Zhaun, you will not be disappointed!

    Must-have wedding photographer!!!

    Zhaun was amazing to work with as our photographer. His authentic personality and professionalism makes you feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. The photoshoot didn't feel staged but instead we genuinely had a lot of fun. This truly translates in the images produced and creates meaningful memories that you will cherish forever! We could not recommend him enough. Thank you a million, Zhaun!

    Amazing Photographer! 10/10!

    Zhaun was absolutely amazing to work with. He did both our engagement and wedding photos and we loved them all. He really listened to what we wanted and truly captured the essence of our special day. Zhaun was able to get so many great candid shots and our guests were raving about him after the wedding saying he was the most fun wedding photographer they had ever been around. 10/10 would recommend Zhaun to anyone looking for someone to photograph their special event.

    Simply Perfect

    We took our engagement photos with Zhaun and he absolutely knocked it out of the park! We’re not getting married until June, 2021 but I’ll probably write another review for him then because he’s that good. The consultation? Perfect. His cute little guidebook that tells you everything you need to know about taking engagement photos? Love it. He gave us just enough direction so we knew what to do, but also was able to sincerely capture us. Nothing short of miraculous and a super fair price. I have no hesitations about saying I would 110% recommend him to anyone.

    Zhaun was such a blessing to us. I drove myself crazy talking with countless photographers that an excel sheet couldn’t even keep track of them anymore. I don’t remember how I even found Zhaun in that blur but I’m confident that the Lord had his hand in it because after we talked to him my husband and I immediately agreed that he was going to be our photographer for our wedding day. And he didn’t disappoint. The number 1 compliment we’ve received from our wedding guests has been how amazing our photographer was, from how gorgeous the photos turned out to how fun he was at the wedding, dancing right along with everyone else and getting some great shots of our dancing guests.

    Zhaun is super laid back and fun, but also very knowledgeable about how to organize a wedding day to go smoothly, which it did perfectly. Of all our vendors, he made us feel most confident that our vision would be met because he maintained regular contact with us throughout our planning process and made certain he knew exactly what we wanted for our big day, and gave great suggestions.

    His pictures are absolutely gorgeous, and also very fun. He takes the very classically beautiful shots but then he also does some that are really interesting and unique. We have some beautiful photos that most people don’t because they’re not the same ones you see wedding after wedding.

    Make sure to do the engagement shoot. It was a great opportunity for us to get to know him and learn some great tips on how to pose well. On our wedding day we were already very comfortable with each other and knew just what to expect.
