Hiring a photographer can be a little stressful, I totally get it! You want to be assured you'll receive beautiful images that you can look back on for years to come. Not only that, but you also want to know that the person you hire is someone who gets you! Someone who will cry along with you on your big day! Someone who cares & wants to capture every little detail for you! Well, that's where I come in... :)

questions.
number one
I am a natural light photographer, which means that I utilize the available light to my full advantage. I find that this gives the most flattering results. That's another important aspect of my style; I'm also a people-centered photographer. My ultimate goal is for you to look (& feel) your best! I will absolutely help guide you through the session, but I’m not a fan of overly posed photos, they tend to look staged and can feel uncomfortable for the couple. I want to tell YOUR love story and showcase YOUR personalities! I love photographing couples in places that are meaningful to them, so let’s have an adventure together and get some gorgeous photos of you in the process!
number two
I am based out of Central Massachusetts, but I absolutely love traveling (U.S. & abroad)! If you’re interested in booking with me for a destination wedding, just let me know and I will create a custom quote for you.
number three
It depends! . . . I work engagement sessions, portrait sessions and weddings alone, unless otherwise specified. When I do have a second photographer work alongside me, it is usually my handsome husband, Pete! We're a husband & wife team, and I think that connection that we have helps us in capturing your wedding day perfectly together!
number four
I offer a variety of wedding packages at various price points to suit different needs and budgets. I also have packages for portraits, seniors, lifestyle, and maternity. In case none of my packages suit your needs, I also offer 'a la carte' items. A variety of custom prints and albums are also available. For detailed pricing and information, contact me! :)
number five
Yes! I believe that your photos are just that - YOURS! After each session, I cull and edit the RAW images. All edited images are then delivered to you for download via an online gallery.
number six
Not at all! Although I prefer shooting outdoors, and will choose to whenever possible, I shoot indoors as well. In those cases, I still use as much natural light as possible, as it is the most beautiful and flattering on everyone.
number seven
My delivery time of galleries varies based on the type of session you are booking, as well as the amount of time (as that impacts number of images). Please contact me for more details!
number eight
I'm a Nikon girl, and shoot with a full-frame camera. I have multiple lenses on hand, and rent additional lenses for weddings when necessary. To avoid any nightmare scenarios, I always have a backup camera (and batteries) on hand as well!
number nine
Yay! If you are liking what you see here, you can get in touch with me through the contact form, or email me at laurarussellphotography@gmail.com. Once we connect, we can schedule a time to meet in person (or via Skype/FaceTime) to make sure we are a good fit! From there, a signed contract and a deposit are required to secure your date.
number ten
My bad! Shoot me a message on the "Get In Touch" page, and feel free to ask anything that your sweet little heart desires! Can't wait to hear from you!! :)
