The Wedding Photography Experience
"Extremely friendly and personable, so easy-going, and happy to partner with you on your vision for the day..."
"Can't say enough about how happy I was to work with Randall for my wedding! The photos came out beautiful and we were thrilled with the moments he captured. I had originally worked with him years before as a bridesmaid at a friend's wedding. That experience was so nice that I recommended him to other friends over the years. When it was finally my turn for the big day there was no way I wasn't going to use him for myself!" - Caitlyn and Kevin
Overcoming all obstacles to get the right photograph at the right time. Chasing the light. Finding the decisive moment. Putting my couples' priorities first. Honoring the unique, personal stories that make each wedding one of a kind.
Not hesitating to lay on the ground in a new suit to get the shot. More smiles and laughter… less drama. It’s about capturing a huge milestone in the lives of two people with respect, authenticity, and heart.
It’s about celebrating life’s joyous moments and YOUR family legacy.

A Wedding Photography Experience That Feels Effortless,
So You Can Be Fully Present
You want stunning wedding photos—of course. But just as important? You want to feel comfortable, have fun, and soak in every moment without stress. That’s where I come in.
With a calm, easygoing approach and a keen eye for authentic emotion, I make sure your photos feel as real as your love—joyful, vibrant, and full of life. No stiff poses. No forced moments. Just you, enjoying your best day, while I capture it all.
Photography That’s True to Life & Full of Emotion
 |
I take a documentary-meets-timeless approach, which means your photos will be:
Authentic – True-to-life moments that capture real emotion.
Effortless – Natural interactions, not awkward poses.
Vibrant & Timeless – No over-stylized edits, just warm, rich, and lasting imagery.
I’ll guide you when needed—so you’re never wondering what to do—but mostly, I’ll let you be fully present, soaking in your day with the people you love.
What It’s Like to Work With Me
Every couple deserves an experience that feels smooth, stress-free, and fun. Here’s what you can expect:
A Laid-Back Approach That Puts You at Ease
You don’t need to be a pro in front of the camera—just be yourself. I’ll create an atmosphere where you can relax, be present, and enjoy every moment.
Guidance When You Need It, Space When You Don’t
I’ll step in when it helps—whether it’s adjusting your dress, fixing a boutonnière, or giving you a little direction for the best light. But when the moment is unfolding naturally? I’ll hang back and capture it as it happens.
A Smooth, Stress-Free Experience
From timelines to lighting to keeping things flowing seamlessly, I make sure photography is the one thing you never have to worry about. Just enjoy your day—I’ve got the rest covered.
Photos That Take You Right Back to the Moment
Years from now, I want you to feel your wedding day all over again—the laughter, the happy tears, the love surrounding you. That’s the power of wedding photography done right.
How This Works
Thank you for making it this far. Wedding planning can be stressful and overwhelming, so let's walk through how easy I make this process and what you can expect from Randall Garnick Photography. | ||
 | 1. Let's Connect After you've taken a few minutes to look at my portfolio and learn about my style and my personality please reach out to set up a no-obligation initial consultation. This process is all about YOU, and I look forward to hearing about your day and what's most important to you. | |
2. Let's Do This After learning more about what's most important to you, I'll put all the details into a contract for you to review. Everything is spelled out simply and transparently. No surprises here. Sign the contract digitally and pay the retainer with your credit card. It's all super easy, and you're officially booked! |  | |
 | 3. Engagement Photos This is one of my favorite parts of the whole process. We'll brainstorm different location options, find the best available date, and have fun with it! This allows you to get comfortable in front of the camera, and of course, we'll create a lot of beautiful photos. | |
4. The Timeline Everyone loves to have a great plan in place because that means less stress! I'll work with you to craft the best timeline for your day, and then we'll fine-tune everything so you're happy with how everything looks. Additionally, we'll talk through all your family dynamics, and I'll put together a family list of photos as well. |  | |
 | 5. Final Check-In A week before your wedding day, we'll have a quick call to go over the schedule and make sure we're still on the same page with everything. | |
6. The Big Day This is what we've been planning for! You get to relax, be in the moment, and let your professional team do what they do best for you to capture the laughter, the joy, the crazy dance floor moves - all the memories. Enjoy it! |  | |
 | 7. Previews Hopefully, you'll still be adventuring on a mountaintop or basking on a beach somewhere in honeymoon bliss. About a week after the wedding, I'll start sharing some previews. | |
8. The Gallery Reveal Four to five weeks after the wedding is when I'll have your complete collection of images ready to view. I'll share your personal gallery link and password, and you can enjoy and relive all the amazing moments from your day. |  | |
 | 9. Custom Heirloom Album This is truly the culmination of all our hard work together, your months and months of planning, and my photography will live in a beautiful custom handmade album crafted specifically for you. | |

Wedding Photography Equipment
I have become a huge proponent of the saying 'hope for the best but prepare for the worst'. Wedding photography doesn't have do-overs, and living and working in New England, we all know the weather, lighting conditions, and many other factors can change at any moment.
Photographing weddings for the last fourteen years has provided a lot of insider knowledge and tips and tricks to make sure I can do my job at the highest level every weekend. Weddings are a huge investment of time, money, and energy. I believe it's my job as a professional wedding photographer to show up and be 100% for every client. Does having the latest and greatest camera ensure I am going to get the best photos? Absolutely not. It's so much more than gear. Certainly, part of it has to do with the 13 years I've been in the wedding industry, learning and educating myself each year. Taking workshops. Traveling to trade shows. Trying new things. Being creative. Making mistakes. Trying again. Not to mention the 8 years prior to that at Boston College and then at the New England School of Photography and at MassArt learning the foundations of photography and the history of photography.
I've always said it's a balance of technical and creative that makes photography great. That's a long-winded way of saying I'm not staying up late at night reading photography tech blogs, but please don't doubt for a second that I don't know my gear inside and out. Each year, I say I'm going to try and lighten the load this season, and then I learn something new and want to try and buy something to add to my 'bag'. It's grown to a few bags. This gear bag image below is my idea of traveling 'light' but I actually couldn't fit everything, such as light stands, the tripod I was using to take the photo, the lens I was using to take the photo, and probably a few other things I consider essential to make every wedding a success. But if you still have any equipment or technical questions, don't hesitate to ask when we chat.
