Rayleen and Tim are the best photographers in New England. When my partner’s family hired them to capture family portraits for his grandmother’s 85th birthday, he secretly arranged to use them for a surprise proposal the very next day. Rayleen ...was completely into the whole idea and came incognito so she wouldn’t be recognized the next day. She even brought her partner Tim and their son to disguise themselves as a family taking pictures at the beach. While my now husband was proposing to me, she sprung into action and captured everything. She even brought in cute touches like covertly taking a picture of my hand at the birthday party without the ring, and then putting it next to a picture with the ring to capture my transformation over that weekend. The pictures were epic, beautifully framed, well lit and colored, and captured so much of the feeling of that day.
Once we started planning our wedding we immediately booked them for our photographers and because of a postponement due to COVID, we ended up working with them for three years. Rayleen took our engagement pictures and was really helpful in narrowing down a good location. During this photoshoot, Rayleen climbed up a tree so she could get the perfect angle, while pregnant! She spent the entire afternoon taking pictures of us and making us look our best.
When our wedding day finally came, Rayleen and Tim delivered. Our wedding was outside, in July, during like a 90-degree day. They were total troopers making sure we got all the pictures we wanted of the ‘first look’, ourselves, the bridal party, and families before the ceremony even started. They were super creative with their photo ideas and also made sure they captured all the pictures both my husband and I wanted. Rayleen and my husband even conspired to surprise me again for a huge group photo at the end of the night, which involved them bringing their own bubble machine to complete the shot. I would easily recommend Meraki Photo, Inc for your wedding photographers, and I know we will be using them again for our future photography needs.
