Ellysia is unbelievably talented and kind, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. The photos are absolutely beautiful. Every time we look through them, we're am...
azed at how well she captured the day. The day went by so quickly, yet the way she captured our day allows us to revisit all the memories of the day and really enjoy our entire wedding.
What stood out most was how well Ellysia listened to us. We told her we wanted to see our guests having fun, not just posed portraits, and she really delivered on that. The candid shots of our friends and family laughing, dancing, and celebrating are some of our favorite images from the whole wedding.
If you're looking for a photographer who combines real skill with genuine care for what matters to you, we can't recommend her highly enough. Ellysia made us feel comfortable throughout the day and gave us photos we'll treasure forever.
Ellysia was such an amazing photographer for our wedding day and engagement photos! She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She made sure we got all the photos we w...
anted from the day and we love them all! She was very responsive and helpful in the wedding planning process. She was very communicative throughout, even through a maternity leave, and ensured our photos would be available quickly! She was a great pick for a photographer!
We couldn't have asked for a more incredible photographer to capture our wedding day! From our engagement session to our wedding day, Ellysia exceeded all of our expectations. Not ...
only is she exceptionally talented and organized, she made the entire experience feel so effortless and enjoyable. If you're looking for a photographer who not only captures your most special moments but does so with passion and precision, look no further. Ellysia is someone who truly loves what she does, and it shows in every photo. We can't recommend her enough!!
Ellysia is top of the line when it comes to photographers in the Boston area. I was referred to her by our venue as a recommended vendor, and I am so thrilled we worked with her. ...
Ellysia runs her business with the utmost professionalism and makes sure you have all of the details for your big day covered. She was such a calming presence on the wedding day and captured every photo that I requested, and more! She was able to send us some sneak peaks of our photos two days after the wedding, and true to her word we had our full gallery within a month. Truly cannot recommend her enough!
Ellysia is talented, her work speaks for itself and her social media presence is engaging. Moreover Ellysia is wonderful to work with, she instantly feels like and friend. She is d...
own to earth and relaxed while also being extremely professional and detail oriented. I am so thrilled with the wedding pics I received so far. We got married on a rainy then snowy day in March (Bedford Village Inn) Ellysia and her assistant were outside with us in the snow and wind capturing the most gorgeous pictures. Who wants the sun when you have flurries? She is a vendor you want on your big day, trust me!
Ellysia was referred to us from a friend and we could not be happier with our choice! She was so easy to work with throughout the planning process. Her meeting times were flexible...
, which was really helpful since we mostly planned our wedding remotely, and made sure we thought of all of the details. She made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera and beautifully captured our whole day. As a bonus, her turn around time in sending us our gallery was pretty quick so we could relive the day! We cannot recommend Ellysia enough!
There are not enough good things we can say about Ellysia. From her calm demeanor (even under pressure to wrangle our big wedding party) to her incredible ability to capture the sp...
ecial, intimate moments, she is the perfect wedding photographer. She was communicative, prompt, helpful and always positive - she was an crucial part of our special day and you should absolutely use her!
We cannot recommend Ellysia enough! She is incredibly easy to work with, and was very flexible as we considered different options throughout the planning process due to Covid. Ell...
ysia helped us, as well as our wedding party and family, feel relaxed and comfortable during photo sessions. Our engagement photos, as well as the wedding photos we have seen so far look fantastic!
Ellysia was our first meeting with a photographer for our wedding, we knew immediately after speaking with her our search was over. She is so personable and genuine, you can’t help...
but bond with her! Thanks to covid our wedding day plans were altered, my husband and I still got married on our original date, but couldn’t have Ellysia there. She was absolutely amazing through the entire rescheduling process and when we did have our small reception for photos she captured everything and more. Everyone there loved here and continue to rave about how amazing the photos turned out. We cannot wait to hire her again for other life events!
We hired Ellysia for our engagement photos and our three multicultural wedding ceremonies and reception. I remembering spending weeks trying to find a photographer who could attend...
the three different days and was also within our budget. I was so happy when I came across Ellysia. She is so down to earth and made us feel less awkward/gangly when we first took our engagement photos. When it came to planning our wedding day/reception timeline, Ellysia had so many resources that really helped us plan our special day. She was punctual on all three days and everything came out so beautiful. I loved all of our photos so much I actually recommended Ellysia to my newly engaged friend. Her engagement photos turned out sincere and beautiful as well! Thank you for everything Ellysia!
My fiancé and I loved working with Ellysia on our engagement shoot last year and are looking forward to her capturing our wedding day. She’s organized, thoughtful, energetic, and ...
so kind. We had so much fun with her in our session — she helped us to be ourselves and captured so many natural and beautiful shots!
My fiancé and I hired Ellysia for our 2021 wedding and had our engagement photos taken a few months ago. From our first virtual meeting to our first in-person interaction, Ellysia ...
was communicative, professional, and so down to earth. She sent us a booklet with everything we could ever need to know about engagement/wedding photography before our engagement shoot which was incredibly helpful for those of us unfamiliar with being in front of the camera. Our engagement photos are beautiful! I can't wait for our wedding day where I know Ellysia will capture memories that last a lifetime!
My fiancé and I won a session with her for our engagement pictures! She made her feel so comfortable and was just so sweet. The photos she took was wonderful and it so natural noth...
ing looks staged. We was at City Park and she took her time and even helped with picking my dresses to look the best in the photos. We 100% recommend booking with her!
My fiancée and I had our engagement photo shoot in Boston during the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic, a time of a lot of stress and change. Working with Ellysia was one of the most pleasant...
, stress-free, and amazing experiences of the whole year. Communicative, flexible, energetic;
- any superlative you can think of, Ellysia will bring that positive energy to your engagement shoot. I know our wedding day will be made all the more special by having her there.
Some people believe in fate when I comes to love, friendships, or careers. I happen to be one of these people. The chance and odds that I would meet my now wife not just once but t...
wice in a crowd of 10,000+ is extremely low. The chance that my now wife would run the Boston marathon on the same fundraising team as Ellysia is also extremely low. But both were undoubtedly a couple of the best things that could have happened to me.
Ellysia was an extreme pleasure to work with and we are very fortunate that she was a part of our special day. We first met up with her to shoot our engagement photos. I have to admit I was a little anxious that day. Within the first 10 minutes I felt so comfortable and just enjoyed every minute of spending this time with my fiancée. Ellysia was decisive, gave great direction, and just fed off our fun-loving energy. Everything she told us to do, positions to be in, and locations she chose came out amazing. After this I was so confident that she would capture our wedding day perfectly, which I can say now she exceeded this expectation.
She was fantastic to work and I’d highly recommend her to anyone that would listen. She’s incredibly talented with a camera but even more so she is an amazing person. Wedding planning is stressful, make your life a little easier and hire Ellysia. It’s one decision you will look back and undoubtably not regret!
Hi Brides! I cannot say enough good things about Ellysia Francovitch Photography!! Between the beautiful pictures, great vibes and extremely reasonable price, we are so happy Ellys...
ia was able to do our wedding photos. Ellysia and her wonderful assistant were even HUSBAND approved!! They were able to keep up with our (at times) rowdy wedding parties and truly let us enjoy our day while getting great shots. After the wedding, Ellysia wrote a beautiful blog about the day and she truly captured the essence of what we wanted our wedding to be. It literally brought me to tears being able to read a 3rd party's perception of our wedding day. We're so grateful for Ellysia and the memories she captured!!
Ellysia was wonderful for both our engagement photos and our wedding day. Our engagement photos were so special and unique I loved that she really let us just be us!
Plus---- she ...
captured all of the natural light so well and it makes everything feel more magical

She captured the best moments from the ones that had us laughing to the ones that got us choked up. My husband and I had so much fun with her in our engagement and wedding photographs because she put both of us at ease and blended into the background seamlessly. I was so sad when everything was over because it meant I wouldn’t be in touch with her regularly anymore!
Do yourself a favor and book her!
Ellysia is so great! She is shooting our wedding in August 2020 and just shot our engagement photos this summer. From my first phone call with her to through our engagement shoot a...
nd into wedding planning, Ellyisa has been responsive, organized, and extremely professional, while also being kind and funny. She was even down to trek through the woods with us at 7a.m. to capture the best light for our photos. I would highly recommend working with Ellysia for your wedding!
I worked with Ellysia on a style shoot last year in Maine. She was very easy to work with and was very flexible. We had a few minor set backs during the shoot, but Ellysia rolled w...
ith it and we were able to come up with alternative solutions on the fly. It was also freezing and we had lots of snow, but that didn't stop her from getting all the good shots!
We love Ellysia's work and will continue to recommend her to our couples!

the highest level of professionalism and Ellysia is just that. She’s sweet, kind and is incredibly talented. She’s able to make simple shots look magical while also capturing the most candid and authentic moments. She’s low key and calming during the most stressful moments of big events. Also, she absolutely loves what she does and loves her clients and it shows.

ngagement photo session was incredible- Ellysia made us feel so comfortable and we had a fantastic time! Ellysia got the photos back to us quickly and we loved them! We could not be more excited to work with her in January!!
Ellysia was one of the highlights of our wedding day. As a same sex couple we were nervous about how photographs would turn out as we aren’t “traditional” and the moment we got on ...
the phone with her, our nerves went away! She has this great energy about her which put us at ease and by the end of the day it felt like a friend was taking our pictures. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a kind, professional photographer who has a way of tapping into your love and pulls it out in pictures! Thank you again Ellysia!!
Ellysia is truly fantastic to work with. I knew her as a friend of a friend in college, and reached out once my fiance and I got engaged to learn more about her photography busines...
s, style, etc. to see if it would be a fit. She was very professional and easy to work with in our first meeting, and it was a very easy decision to book her for our engagement session and wedding. The wedding is next June (I'm so excited to work with her on that day!), but our engagement session was FANTASTIC. We booked a 1-hour session at Fenway Park, and it was some of the most fun I've ever had. My fiance and I are huge baseball fans (he's born and raised in MA, I'm a MN transplant), so the setting was a great fit. We actually had to reschedule the date because it rained on our original date. But Ellysia was extremely flexible and understanding, and worked with us to find a second time. Ellysia could not stop smiling the whole time on the day of. She made the whole process so natural, and it never felt like we were posing. It also helped that she was clearly enjoying herself at the same time - both in taking the photos and taking in the scenery at the ball park! Our photos are priceless, and we are so so happy with our choice in Ellysia.
Ellysia was amazing to work with! We were impressed with her beautiful photos and also her warm personality. She was so organized leading up to both our engagement shoot and our we...
dding, gathering every possible detail she may need to in order to capture every moment that day. My husband and I both have large families and Ellysia easily gathered everyone to take large group shots after the ceremony. We can't get over how amazing the photos turned out. She loves what she does and it really shows in her work. Look no further and book her before someone else does!
Ellysia has done an excellent job with our engagement pictures and we are glad we chose her as our wedding photographer. My fiancé and I felt comfortable taking pictures with her ...
and she was very professional. She was attentive and was always willing to go above and beyond to ensure she got the best shot. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a good photographer.
You were the photographer at my daughter's wedding and I will treasure the pictures you took of me walking her down the isle forever. We couldn't have asked for a better photograph...

You took the pictures for my daughters wedding and they came out absolutely beautiful!
Would recommend you to anyone!

We just worked with Ellyisa for our engagement shoot and could not be happier. We contacted Ellyisa after she had done a shoot at our wedding venue. My fiancé and I are slightly ca...
mera shy and thought an engagement session was a great way to 'prep' for our big day. Without much of an idea of what we wanted or how to be prepared for the shoot. Ellyisa greeted us with open arms and made us feel so natural. She was extremely helpful finding the perfect location and poses to capture the moment! She was so great to work with and the way she captures the lighting is beautiful. We can't wait to work with her on our wedding this summer.
Ellysia photographed my brothers wedding last August, and I cannot thank her enough for capturing it so beautifully! She did not let a single beautiful moment go unnoticed. I look ...
through the photo gallery frequently because the photos are so lovely and they remind me of that joyous day so perfectly. I want to hire Ellysia personally for my own (future) wedding!!!

I cannot say enough good things about Ellysia, both as a person and as a photographer! From the first time my now husband and I meet with her we were impressed with her positive at...
titude and care for her clients. We booked an engagement shoot with her so we could learn about each other's vibes/style and she recommended a location as well as poses that would look best. She was also very open to suggestions we had and incorporating our dog into the shoot. As far as planning for the day of we collaborated on the shots that were important to me as well as the timing of the day. She was even able to rangle our family and friends (not an ease feat)! The photographs that she took came out so beautifully they have now been used on several wedding websites!!
Amazing experience with Ellysia! So sweet and caring and truly enjoys her work. Amazing rates and amazing photos that we got in the end. Nothing negative to say at all!
