Mark B. Carrier Photography

Smithfield, RI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,900

Hey friends! What is the value of a photograph? Well, if it’s art, then its value is determined by the status and popularity of the artist, in most cases anyway. If it’s that one moment at your wedding when your fiancé reads your love note for the first time, sheds that one tear they swore wouldn't happen, then it’s a moment you need captured and archived, because its value is incomprehensible. I’m going to capture that moment and preserve it forever you! Hi! My name is Mark! I'm a wedding photographer in Rhode Island and I'm really excited you're here. Send me a message, I'd love to chat with you about your wedding vision.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’ve worked with Mark for several weddings and I recommend him highly. As a makeup artist I remember those fellow vendors that made my job easier, but most importantly, the day smoother and more fun for those getting married! He is friendly, calm, professional, unobtrusive and makes everyone feel at ease. I have heard from those that hired him how wonderful he was. He is confident in his craft and with people. It feels like he genuinely likes people and what he does. When I see his work, the colors are as vibrant as they were in real life and my makeup on clients is not “washed out”. In addition to his positive demeanor that makes him a pleasure to have around, and the makeup looking beautiful in his photos, I believe his photography style captures the spirit of the day and brings people closer to reliving the excitement and happiness of such a beautiful life event.

When searching for a photographer, I was overwhelmed by the number of options available. Dominique didn’t make me feel pressured. She provided us with her wedding guide, which gave us insight into who she is. When we met remotely, I instantly knew she was the one. She was enthusiastic, listened attentively, and asked us questions about what is important to us leading up to the wedding and beyond. She was great to work with, and I knew what to expect. She drafted our timeline, offered recommendations, and helped us design it based on what was important to my husband and me. She curated a family shot list, and let me tell you, she did not disappoint. Her and her team were amazing.

Madison was an incredible photographer for our wedding day at Nicollet Island Pavilion! She was efficient, fun, laid-back, and helped us feel comfortable super quickly which made us feel at ease throughout the entire process. Her work is truly top-tier - she has an incredible vision and unique style that captured all the special moments of our wedding. She was so energetic and encouraging, which helped us feel less stiff and more natural in front of the camera (which does not come easily to us!). Madison also came prepared with our Pinterest board and shot list, ensuring she got all the specific pictures we wanted while adding her own spin on them. Her editing of the wedding shots were better than I could have imagined - I specifically loved the blurry shots that were mixed in. We cannot recommend Madison enough - she was an integral part of making our wedding day so special and memorable.

Hi, I’m Nicole (she/her) - a Rhode Island-based wedding photographer. I have more than a decade of experience shooting weddings of all kinds - and today, I work collaboratively with my couples to create photos that evoke how their day felt. Photos of honest and emotional interactions; small details that hold weight and meaning; effortless portraits that capture the feel of the surrounding space or landscape. The result is a narrative visual story of enduring human connections, and a chronicle of emotional moments that they can revisit time and time again.

Nicole is the total package. Of course she is incredibly TALENTED, but she also handled our entire day with professionalism and empathy. She has the ability to make quick, smart decisions whenever things do not go perfectly as planned and always offers a helping hand. While preparing for our wedding, Nicole was extremely accessible and was an incredible communicator. She eased all of my anxieties and treated us like family. Out of all our vendors, Nicole received the most compliments from our guests. I loved that after the wedding, she gave us a sneak peak of some photos while we waited for the full album to be completed! I can’t wait for her to photograph our next life milestone. Nicole, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

I found myself photographing weddings 5 years ago. Before that I was into documentary and travel photography. I traveled the world doing it. My passion for love stories began after a friend asked me to photograph their wedding. It was the most intimate experience for me, the deep connection and the responsibility I was granted by my friend felt nothing but honorable. After that I decided to give it a go. Fast forward, today my style is candid and non-obtrusive and of course I work with posing and I’m really good at giving people directions. My passion is to observe my subjects and capture them in a very natural, honest and uncontrived way.

Awarded Best of Zola
Marilia Lima Photography was a wonderful choice for our wedding photographer. Marilia was clear, organized, and professional in their communication with us throughout the entire process. Their work is meaningful, intentional and one of a kind. We selected them for their style which is natural, candid, and dreamy. Marilia was present and patient with Patrick, me and our families throughout the whole day, helping to capture the day with ease and grace. It was end of June and a little drizzly and Marilia embraced this and was able to capture some truly stunning detail shots in the rain. We did not do a first look so we did all our pictures after the ceremony and it never felt rushed; we were very at peace and were even able to make it to the cocktail hour. We were grateful for this. Marilia offers film as part of their standard packages, and I would highly recommend including this - one of my favorite shots so far is one they got of us under my veil on film. I highly recommend Marilia Lima Photography for your wedding day. Adding a few of the shots we got back on film below.

Tired of not seeing yourselves represented in the wedding industry? Welcome to the RTP fam - we're a husband and wife duo shooting a combination of digital, film and Polaroid photos so that your gallery will deliver all the vibes and capture your sick, nontraditional love. And because of all the time we'll spend together getting to know you and crafting the perfect photo timeline for your day, you'll feel like we're just your two best friends there to capture the moments. No matter your size, race, gender, sexual orientation or religion, we're here to hype you up as you share all your wildest wedding ideas with us!

How do we even begin to explain how much we love Rhode Tripper Photography? If you’re reading this while considering booking them for your wedding - FULL STOP, JUST DO IT. Meaghan and Evan are two of the most lovely people we have met. Once we had our wedding date, they were the first vendor that we booked for our big day. From the very first meeting, we felt completely at ease talking to them about our vision, our budget, and what we wanted the day to feel like. They are super well connected in the wedding industry, and had lots of recommendations for other vendors when we felt overwhelmed. Initially we opted to skip an engagement shoot, but ended up reaching out to book one so that we’d have a little practice posing. It felt right for us as it gave us a chance to meet Meaghan and Evan and see how we felt behind the camera. They made us feel comfortable right from the start, and while we initially booked it just for practice, we were stunned by how beautiful the photographs came out. We knew immediately we’d made the right choice in booking Rhode Tripper Photography and ended up extending our wedding day coverage. We just couldn’t get enough of their gorgeous style and eye for detail. Leading up to the wedding, Meaghan and Evan were available for all of our questions and planning details. Meaghan ended up assembling a wedding timeline that even our event planners were blown away by. You can tell she knows what she’s doing (spoiler - the timeline was perfect down to the minute). On the day of the wedding, we felt completely relaxed and honestly just giddy to be around Meaghan and Evan. They brought such a fun and light energy to our day and blended in seamlessly with our friends and family. When we needed a leader in the chaos, they were there to make announcements and call people to step up for photos and stay on track. When we were on the dance floor, they blended in like they were lifelong friends dancing with all of us. When pollen from my flowers stained my dress, Meaghan had a Shout wipe ready - and did you know that Shout wipes work way better on a wedding dress than a Tide pen? MEAGHAN KNEW. We could truly go on forever about how much we love Rhode Tripper Photography, but we’ll let their gorgeous photos speak for themselves. We were delighted to get a stack of beautiful Polaroids at the end of the night, a stunning sneak peek the next day, and we can’t wait to see the way they captured the rest of the day. We’ll be gushing about them forever to everyone we know!!

Hi, I'm Kate! I am a full time photographer based in RI. I photograph hybrid 35mm film and digital portraits. I travel throughout New England and love working with fun, adventurous couples. Most of my work has a very natural feel to it. I capture moments, making for a very lighthearted, low stress day. I am a roll-with-the-punches sort of person, which comes in handy since no wedding day ever goes totally to plan! I focus on the joy, laughter, gratitude and everything in between! We’ll probably go adventuring a bit to get some really cool shots. We will definitely laugh a lot. Sound good? Check out my portfolio or get in touch to chat more!

If you’re considering booking Polar Square Designs, just do it! Kate was so responsive, professional, helpful and flexible. Neither my husband nor I love having our photos taken (especially in public) but Kate made us feel totally comfortable on our engagement shoot at the beach and we ended up with some incredible shots. The turnaround time to get our whole gallery back was so quick. Leading up to our wedding, Kate’s questionnaire helped us nail down what shots we really wanted and the timeline she came up with was very helpful! On our wedding day, Kate and the second shooter Allison worked together so well and made sure we got all the shots we wanted! Everything flowed perfect and they did an amazing job capturing our best day ever! We received a bunch of “sneak peek” images less than 24 hours after our wedding and they’re all so good! Kate’s creativity and skill are evident in the results. I highly recommend Polar Square Designs!

Especially our group photos. I didn’t want the “everyone stand in a line and smile” type photos that I very often see people share. Emily truly captured everyone’s raw emotions and made sure everything was captured on our day. Before she left she made sure to ask me if there was anything else that I would want her to capture!

Weddings for me are such a perfect setting for a photographer. No two are ever alike regardless of setting or season, the variables are endless. This creates a never-ending challenge with which to grow as a visual storyteller. All while being surrounded by people experiencing the best day of their life, I can't imagine having a better job

From the moment we reached out to Trevor Holden Photography, they were incredibly responsive and helpful. We had our engagement session in NYC and it was so perfect despite the cold weather. Trevor had never shot at the spots we chose but he knew exactly where to get the best lighting and backgrounds. We were obsessed with our engagement photos are are equally as obsessed with our wedding photos! Leading up to the wedding, he listened closely to our preferences and on the wedding day he captured all the special moments in a personalized, artistic way. The photos were absolutely stunning - we're thrilled with the quality and how they perfectly reflect the joy and love of our special day. Trevor pulled us at all of the right times to capture different lightings and we got every single picture we could have dreamed of. We highly recommend him to any couple getting married. We hope to work with him again for more of life's special moments!

The photos were sent to us within a week, and the autumnal colors really popped! We’re grateful for Kathryn’s willingness to travel up to MA to make these gorgeous photos happen :)

My couples mean the world to me. I love hearing their stories, what makes them tick, and the things that are important to them. It’s my goal to capture them exactly the way they are; how they crack jokes, poke fun, dance together, hold one another. I’m there to capture the genuine tears, the laughs, how you just fit so well together. With directive posing, I bring out real chemistry and personalities. With my laid back vibe, I’ll ensure even the photo-heavy parts of the day are a breeze. I believe every single part of a wedding should be a blast and that every couple should be celebrated in their own unique way.

I could not have asked for a better person to capture my wedding! On our wedding day, it poured rain and I was absolutely devastated that the outdoor wedding I had been dreaming of was not happening. As I was sitting there faced with that reality, about to ruin my makeup with tears, Andrea swooped in like a superhero and genuinely made me feel like the rain was a good thing. She was the only voice of reason that made me feel like everything was still perfect. She ran around in the rain with us all day capturing the most gorgeous photos and I didn’t feel like I missed out at all. She was prepared with clear umbrellas and we actually had fun! She is also just so talented, the pictures and the saturation are just absolutely gorgeous, and not only that but she also has an absolute talent for capturing joy and movement. All my vendors have chosen to use her photos from my wedding on their websites, seriously just hire her!!!

I have been shooting weddings, engagement sessions and family sessions all over New England since 2014. Every event I have shot feels like the first day of a new job to me: exciting, eye-opening, and full of potential. I love being exposed to new cultures and rituals, dance moves and family dynamics.

Awarded Best of Zola
Loved having Sara as part of our big day. She did an amazing job capturing our love story. Everyone raves about how professional she was and how great all our photos are. Engagment photos to the day of pictures were a 10! Made us feel comfortable and showed us how to pose. I would recommend her to anyone who ask!

Hi hi, I’m Joy Imani (she/her). I capture real, heartfelt moments through digital and film photography. My work is all about connection, storytelling, and making you feel seen. With a name like mine it's hard not to use a pun in every sentence, but I truly do love to capture joy in all the forms that it comes, and each client that invites me to be a part of one of their most joyous days is an honor.

Joy has been there to photograph a few milestones in my life. She photographed my actual surprise engagement and eventually my engagement photoshoot for save the dates. She has a way of capturing love and life in a powerful way. She makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera and her love of the craft really shines through in her photos. 10/10 would recommend, every time.

I'm a Wedding and Adventure Elopement photographer based out of the beautiful state of Rhode Island serving all of New England and beyond! I have a deep love for the great outdoors, which gives me a passion for documenting love stories from the mountains to the sea, and everywhere in between.

Melody has been one of our absolute favorite vendors for our wedding. We used her 3 times – engagement photos, a sunset photo shoot, and our wedding. I could not say enough good things about her. From the start, she made us comfortable and ensured she was the expert and professional we needed. She captured every vision we had, and made it seem effortless. Every photo shoot she has done for us has been a work of art! My now husband who used to hate taking photos absolutely loved working with Melody. She captured the beauty of our venue, and of our relationship. She made our day run so smooth, to the point where we even had extra time. I never once felt rushed or nervous as long as Melody was there! I could never use another photographer!
