Laura Kilgus
PHOTOGRAPHER
Hi, I’m Laura! If you are looking for a photographer who will cherish your wedding day as much as you do, you’ve found her. Based in Rhode Island, 9ten Photography captures weddings and celebrations across New England.
Planning a wedding is a beautiful adventure. I want to make your photography experience the easiest, most joyful part of it—delivering a gallery filled with grand, tear-jerking moments, quiet glances, and unscripted laughs.
PROUDLY LGBTQ+ FRIENDLY
Whoever you are and whomever you love, you are warmly welcomed here. I am committed to making sure you feel safe, seen, and celebrated.
THE 9TEN EXPERIENCE
From our first email to the final gallery delivery, you can expect a personalized experience that is professional, reliable, and, above all, fun. By anticipating candid moments, I provide a genuine showcase of your unique bond at a price within reach.
To ensure you receive the deeply dedicated experience you deserve, I only accept a limited number of weddings each year to give each couple my utmost care.
MEET LAURA
Beyond 9ten Photography, I’m an award-winning journalist and photographer. My career has taken me from photographing high-profile musical artists on major concert stages to having my work featured on The Today Show and Good Morning America.
Because I’m used to shooting live concerts and fast-moving news, I bring a unique superpower to your wedding: I know exactly how to anticipate the unexpected, read a room, and capture epic, split-second moments effortlessly. You get the technical expertise of a seasoned pro, delivered with a calm, fun energy that keeps you completely at ease. I also proudly serve as a volunteer photographer for the Down Syndrome Society of Rhode Island.

Where do I begin? Laura and Chris are phenomenal. If there was an option for a rating of 10 they would get it. They were sweet, respectful, unobtrusive, professional and creativ...
e. They listened to and respected the wishes of my daughter and her husband and their work speaks for itself. It felt like we had family photographing the wedding! There is nothing pretentious about them....no fake posing or over the top directives. They capture moments, which is really what a wedding is all about. They were so easy to work with and we all will recommend them without hesitation. If you want real and raw choose them. They are the real deal. Love them!!!!
