Cody James Barry Photography

Cody was the best thing we did for ourselves! He is incredibly kind, easy to work with, punctual, charming - all the things. The photos of our wedding capture the spirit of the day and we couldn't be happier. He also saved the day by changing another vendors sign which incorrectly spelled my husbands name. He is a gem!

Cody was amazing! We hired him to do our wedding & an engagement shoot. Throughout the whole process he was always quick with responses, easy to communicate with, detailed & organized. On the wedding day he was the perfect combination of laid back, but assertive when needed with organizing our families, and helping us be where we needed to be! The two of us wanted to take photos around our neighborhood in Portland; we were able to spend time taking photos at a ton of different places that were meaningful to us, and he suggested places he thought would work well for photos. The result was perfect... The guests had nothing but great things to say about him and the photos. I've had multiple people ask for his contact info after meeting him at our wedding and seeing our photos. Would highly recommend!

It was such a pleasure having Cody photograph our wedding. Cody’s photography talent and skill were what originally led us to him and through our wedding planning and wedding day we found that he was also a pleasure to work with. Leading up to the wedding day we were unsure of the exact timeline and Cody gave us great advice and helped to straighten it all out, and while doing a site walkthrough he gave us a few suggestions for the layout of the ceremony that resulted in gorgeous photos. He was great at wrangling the whole wedding party to create some incredibly glamorous photo ops as well as capturing so many lovely candid moments during the day and night. Throughout the whole process Cody had a calming presence (that was much needed on the wedding day) while also bringing a lot of experienced and confident energy. While I knew he must have been super busy all season, he never once made us feel like we weren’t the number one priority and I really appreciate that! Thank you so much Cody for the wonderful wedding photos!

When we started researching vendors for our wedding, all other photographers began to blend together but Cody’s photos stood out. We reached out and Cody was always responsive and professional. Leading up to the wedding, he came to our house to see the venue and gave us advice. Our wedding day was the hottest day in Maine since 1991. We had no air conditioning and everyone was sweating profusely so the entire bridal party ended up in our cellar. I was absolutely mortified, but Cody was so calming and positive. During our family photos, he helped organize unruly groomsmen and late family members. Throughout the entire day and night, he was helpful creating group shots and finding candids. After the wedding, he promptly emailed out a preview. I cannot express how well these photos came out. His eye for finding beauty in the moment and talent for telling stories is truly incredible. Thank you for everything!
