Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
We are proud to offer an amazing Photography & Videography experience which is very popular to our couples!
Hello, my name is Mark. I’m a highly experienced wedding photographer based in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, and I’ve been photographing weddings coming on 20 years. That’s a lot of amazing couples, great families, and beautiful New England venues and I’m grateful for every one of them. As a New England wedding photographer, I blend documentary storytelling, contemporary portraiture, and elegant wedding photography to create images that are both emotional and enduring.
Being engaged is an exciting time, and I know how much planning goes into a wedding. My goal is to make the photography part easy, fun, and not stressful. I bring years of experience to help guide you through the day, step in when you need direction, and keep things light without ever being in the way. I want you to enjoy your day and love your photos.
Every wedding package includes a complimentary engagement session because getting to know each other ahead of time makes everything smoother. By the time your wedding arrives, you’re comfortable with me and the camera, and the photos feel natural and true to who you are. My editing style is crisp, clear, and true‑to‑color and no heavy filters. After the wedding, I send a preview quickly, followed by your full gallery of high‑resolution, professionally edited images with no watermarks.
Thanks for stopping by! I’d be happy to capture your story. Please get in touch, I’d love to chat.

- Mark R. DucharmeOwner/PhotographerHi, I’m Mark. I believe every wedding deserves to be remembered for how it felt and looked. The results are moments captured naturally and I am proud to say I do not over process your final images as so many other photographers tend to do. They are natural in color and crispness and will not ever go out of style. Over the past 18+ years, I’ve photographed hundreds of weddings across New England—from the coast of Maine to the rustic barns in New Hampshire. But no matter the setting, what drives me is the emotion behind the images: the teary hug from a parent as the watch their daughter come down the isle, the laugh between friends, the look two people share when they realize... this is it. Photography, for me, is personal and fun. As a newly married husband myself, I know firsthand how fast the day goes by—and how much the right photos matter. The real ones. The fun, imperfect, emotional, can’t-stop-looking-at-it kind of memories. I bring calm energy, creative instincts, and a photojournalistic style that blends into your day without ever making it feel like a photoshoot. It’s your wedding—I’m just there to capture the story honestly, artistically, and with heart. Whether you’re planning a big ballroom celebration or an intimate mountaintop elopement, I’d love to be part of it.
- Melissa DucharmeAdminBefore you meet Mark behind the lens, you may meet Melissa first. As Mark’s wife and partner in crime, Melissa helps make the process of finding and booking your wedding photographer easy, personal, and stress-free. She may be the first point of contact, happy to answer questions about availability, packages, and share how having Mark be a part of your wedding day experience is like no other. Having planned their own wedding in 2023, Melissa and Mark understand how important every detail and moment can be. That perspective helps guide every conversation with couples who reach out. From time to time, Melissa joins Mark on engagement sessions and sees firsthand the care, patience, and passion he brings to every couple he photographs. If you're looking for a photographer who will invest his whole heart into your wedding day, Melissa is here to help you take that first step. We can't wait to hear from you!
- Peterson FerreiraVideographerPeterson is an exceptional professional with remarkable skills and expertise in capturing every important moment of your wedding day. I’m excited to have partnered with him, bringing him on board as an associate to enhance the value we provide and create a comprehensive wedding day experience.
- Charles SternaimoloPhotographerCharles will help capture the love shared on your wedding day in a way that feels natural, thoughtful, and full of passion. He will help photograph the images that reflect the true authenticity of your love for each other. He has several years in the industry and is a great asset to the team.
- Matthew AndersonPhotographerMatt brings creative ideas and a fresh perspective to every wedding. With his warm personality and easygoing nature, he blends seamlessly into your day helping to capture genuine, unforgettable moments without you even realizing he’s there. When you look back at your photos, you’ll wonder how he managed to capture it all so perfectly.

From the engagement shoot, up to the wedding day, and all the planning/follow-ups in between - he's with you every step of the way, and makes the whole experience comfortable and enjoyable.
He got every single shot I could've imagined, and captured each one so beautifully. I was blown away with how our photos turned out, and feel so happy knowing that we'll be able to have such amazing pictures to look back to over the years to come.
Mark is someone who you always know you're in great hands with - he takes the time to care, and was a big part of making our wedding day truly special. I'm so glad we had the opportunity to work with him, and any other couple would be lucky to as well!

He provided us with a quick turnaround of a photo preview in under 24 hours of our wedding and we got to enjoy them on our way to our honeymoon! We cannot recommend Mark enough.

We are so happy that we chose Mark to capture our wedding day. He is very professional yet personable while also being fun to work with during photo time. Mark also has the wedding...
day timeline down to a T, and his efficiency really helped us make the most our time we had with him. We were able to enjoy a lot of time with our guests because he came in with an agenda. He was also very flexible with what we needed and any changes that came about.
We decided we wanted to have two photographers, so we worked with both Mark and his coworker, Peterson. We really loved that Mark and Peterson are both very creative and they had some amazing ideas on how to create such beautiful pictures. My husband and I knew we could trust the two of them to capture us in natural and warm way. Our photos are gorgeous, and I love that they really capture who we are as a couple. All of our friends and family are amazed with Mark and Peterson's work. It is very obvious that Mark and his team work hard for their clients!

On top of that, he took some wonderfully creative shots that we never would have thought to ask for, and we’re so glad he did, they’re some of our favorites! He was flexible, understanding, and truly made us feel at ease throughout the entire day.
We were thrilled to receive previews just a few days after the wedding, and all of our edited photos were delivered in just a few weeks. All of my friends and family were in shock at how lovely they all came out. If you’re looking for a talented, reliable, and creative wedding photographer, Mark R. Ducharme is the one!

and his attention to detail resulted in beautiful photographs that captured all the special moments of our wedding day, he even took some shots with a book we brought as a prop because our wedding was book themed, and he got some really gorgeous photos of our rings within the pages. One photo captured my husbands engraving on his ring and the shadow formed a heart on the book pages, it's one of my favorites from the whole day. The preview photos were nothing short of incredible, and he provided them to us within hours of leaving our wedding! Neither one of us really enjoys having our photo taken, but Mark made the entire experience really fun and got some beautiful candid shots for us as well. We highly recommend Mark R. Ducharme Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience with a really fun photographer!

Our venue was a new location for Mark to shoot at, yet you wouldn’t believe it with how amazing our pictures came out. His direction and staging on the fly was fantastic! He had the entire wedding party laughing, which helped relax everyone in front of the camera. We received our sneak peeks literally the day after our wedding, which is crazy! Not even 2 weeks later our entire wedding album was available online for us to view. Since sharing our pictures with family and friends we’ve been complimented on how beautiful our pictures came out countless times. Thank you Mark for capturing such wonderful pictures from a very special day!! If you’re looking for a photographer who knows his stuff, will capture your day exactly how it looked (no weird filters, but true to life colors!), and will have you at ease throughout the entire process then Mark is your guy!

We loved that he offered both a photo and video package making things very convenient. What a wonderful experience we had with Mark! Meeting him in person for our engagement photoshoot prior to the wedding really helped to get to know him, his personality and style. This being included in the package was also a plus ! And we got so many great photos from it that we used one for our welcome sign on our wedding day. I am so pleased with working alongside Mark and Peterson for videography. They are both so professional and know exactly how to quickly capture the moments; the day goes by sooo so fast!! We can not recommend this team enough. We walked away with so many memories to show with photos and video to last a lifetime. This is your sign to book now!!

Mark was a an excellent communicator, a resource for us throughout planning our wedding day, and most importantly, an unbelievable photographer.
For our engagement photos he braved...
40 mph winds and bitter cold, all while keeping us at ease as he took unbelievable photos one after another. We thought that we’d have to wait for weeks to see our results but Mark had them back to us in the matter of a few days.
We knew then we had picked the right photographer and that was confirmed on our wedding day when again, faced with difficult weather conditions pulled a rabbit out of a hat and captured the most beautiful photos inside and out of my husband and I, our wedding party, and even helped us corral dozens of family members that had dispersed throughout the venue.
We are so grateful that we found Mark and that he was able to so beautifully capture our special day.

He approached the entire process with professionalism, patience, and a warm demeanor, making us feel comfortable and at ease throughout the entire day. His ability to connect with us and our guests ensured that the photographs radiated genuine joy and happiness.
The turnaround time for the final photos was impressive, and the quality surpassed our expectations. The images were beautifully edited, enhancing the natural beauty of the moments captured without sacrificing authenticity.

amazing photos and executed the coordination of all the chaos of two sets of family and friends perfectly. He was so so fun to work with and I'm so happy to have such beautiful memories to look back on for the rest of our lives. Thank you so much, Mark!

Mark was a lot of fun to work with. We are delighted we did our engagement shoot with him and had an opportunity to meet and work with him before our wedding. It made our wedding...
day feel much more personal. Mark reached out exactly when he said he would for all the touch-points leading up to our wedding. He was on time, prepared, energetic, funny, and most importantly, he is a great photographer!! Mark has a process for capturing all of the formal photos after the ceremony that works without having to create a "shot list" to send to him before. He managed to photograph the various groupings of the important people in our lives and did it quickly so we could start celebrating with our guests.

n front of the camera before the big day. Mark is very personable, has a great sense of humor and is skilled at making people feel at ease. He is also great at "hearding cats" and giving direction which was very needed for some of the bigger group photos. The whole process working with him was a breeze. Highly recommend!

We cannot say enough good things about Mark. He made us all feel comfortable in front of the camera from the time we met for our engagement photos all the way through the wedding....
He organized and directed our group so we got all the very best photos and worked with us through all the rain on our wedding day. We love every single photo we got back. I was so excited to see our night of sneak peaks and cannot believe the quick turn around time for our full gallery, not even two weeks! Throughout the year after booking him in July of 2022 for our June 2023 wedding he checked in with us and answered any questions we had quickly. We would recommend Mark every time!

From the very beginning Mark was incredible. Every request and or idea, Mark was not only executing but was also encouraging us. We were a little crazy and wanted our engagement sh...
oot to be in the snow, and Mark was there taking the best pictures. The free engagement pictures was a HUGE plus and allowed us to get familiar with Mark for our wedding day. Our families are a little hectic and Mark was fast and efficient, he knew what pictures to take, where to be and what to avoid. Mark also gave us a sneak peak less than 24 hrs later! I hear stories from other brides on how their pictures took over 8 weeks, Mark gave us full access to our pictures in 2 weeks, and they absolutely amazing. Do not think twice about booking Mark, he is worth it!

Mark was such a FANTASTIC photographer for our wedding on June 10th, 2023 in Madbury, New Hampshire. We met him in September 2022 for our engagement photos (which are included in y...
our wedding package, huge plus!) and had a blast with him. He has such a perfect eye for capturing the most beautiful photos. I am so overwhelmed with how stunning our wedding photos are. HIGHLY recommend Mark to capture your perfect day! Outstanding professionalism, attention to detail, punctuality, and communication.
He was very responsive to our initial inquiry and was flexible with our changes in schedule for engagement photos. My husband is 1 of 10 so coordinating those family photos was no easy task but he did it with such grace and fun! Our guests and families loved chatting with him and being a part of those moments with us!

nality made it easy for us to get comfortable posing for pictures and have fun. We got our engagement photos back the next day and loved them. Mark was very communicative throughout the time leading up to the wedding. He reached out when he said he would and took the most amazing photos of our big day. He helped us keep to our wedding timeline and was dedicated to capturing beautiful shots. The best part is that he sent us a handful of preview photos the night our wedding ended and all the photos within 2 weeks! We love reliving our wedding day through these photographs. Would highly recommend Mark as your photographer!

make jokes and make us laugh -- getting us both comfortable in front of the camera. On our weding day he was punctual and organized. He was great at directing us where to be, where to look and what to do. Mark captured every type of photograph and had everyone feeling very relaxed and natural. Not even 12 hours after our wedding, Mark sent us preview pictures, which were amazing! Needless to say, we would recommend Mark time and time again. It is clear he has a passion for photography and captures life's big moments in fantastic ways.

By now we’ve already seen some preview shots from Mark’s work at our wedding yesterday and we are incredibly impressed! He does exceptional work and this is coming from two people ...
who are both photographers as well! Wedding photographer, in particular, goes above and beyond the technical skills: it requires a lot of “people skill” when capturing those special moments, especially on such an emotional day…compounded even more by the stress of looming bad weather. He went above and beyond to make sure we got the outdoor photos we so desperately wanted before the storms rolled in and did a fantastic job indoors capturing the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. He’s a great team player and worked with us, my hair and makeup team, the wedding party, our friends and relatives, the venue, and our DJ to set the stage for some magical shots, We would both highly recommend!

y moment, every angle and memory the day of our wedding. He always knew how to make us laugh to capture the best moments with our closest friends & family.
If you’re shy or awkward in front of the camera, Mark is your guy because he will capture the best photos of you. We couldn’t have been happier with choosing Mark as our wedding photographer. My husband and I would highly recommend Mark R. Ducharme Photography to anyone in need of capturing the most precious moments. Thanks again Mark!

hat he needs to for the perfect shot. Not only did he capture amazing photos of us, but took great couples shots of our guests. All our guests remarked how efficient he was, which is a huge plus if you have a tight schedule or a large wedding - he gets all the shots needed and plans well beforehand!
If anyone is awkward or nervous around a camera, Mark is your guy. He will direct you through any and every pose and get you laughing for natural smiles. You spend a majority of your wedding day with the photographer, and we were so glad ours was Mark!
Definitely book this guy, I cannot recommend him highly enough!
