About this vendor
Based in Burlington, VT, Oliver Parini Photography offers bespoke wedding photography services for couples seeking romantic imagery.
As a wedding photojournalist, my goal is to document the real, candid moments of your special day as they happen. I believe that the most beautiful and meaningful photographs are those that capture the emotions, connections, and candid moments that truly tell the unique story of each couple's love.
I have always been drawn to photography, and after working for the school newspaper and making prints in the darkroom at Colorado College, I decided to start my own business in 2010. Since then, I have had the privilege of photographing nearly 100 weddings and working with some of the top publications in the World, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The Boston Globe, Der Spiegel, Yankee Magazine, Seven Days, and many more.
I specialize in capturing candid, spontaneous moments that often go unnoticed. From the teary-eyed glances during the ceremony to the joyous laughter during the reception, I strive to document the full experience of your wedding day in a natural, unobtrusive manner.
Outside of my work as a wedding photojournalist, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my wife, our two little kids, and our Siberian Husky. We love to hike, fly fish, ski, and explore the beautiful state of Vermont!
I am grateful for the opportunity to do what I love every day and to be a part of such a meaningful moment in my clients' lives. Thank you for considering me as your wedding photographer. I can't wait to hear more about your plans. Please feel free to reach out, and we’ll set up a time to connect!

The photos themselves are stunning - his photojournalist style telling a story that lets you relive the entire experience.

t we first connected with Oliver, he demonstrated a level of professionalism and warmth that immediately put us at ease. His documentary style approach is nothing short of magical. Throughout the entire day, he skillfully blended into the background, capturing the most genuine and intimate moments without us even realizing he was there.
The photos Oliver captured are beyond stunning – each frame capturing the emotions and love of our special day. We find ourselves reliving those cherished moments every time we glance through the album he created for us. We can not recommend him and his work enough.

Our photos came back much faster than I was expecting, and through the entire process he has always been available for questions and any concerns.

Thank you so much Oliver for capturing our day so beautifully!

red Oliver for our wedding. His images are more than just technically proficient, they are skillfully composed and masterfully artistic. They are everything that I hoped for. I get to relive every beautiful moment when I look at his photographs. On top of that, you barely knew he was hard at work throughout the entire event and when we interacted directly, he was incredibly professional and personable. He was even kind and patient with my timid dog (I appreciate that so much!). I highly recommend him and I hope to work with him again for future family portraits. Thank you, Oliver!
Oliver was everything we could have asked for in a wedding photographer. He was organized, on time, friendly, positive, patient, and also knew so many great spots around our venue ...

o finish, he captured more than we could ask for on a day we won’t forget. His professionalism and skill became apparent immediately, and the pictures we have from it are more than we ever expected. If you get married in Vermont there isn’t a better choice for a photographer.

h candid photos of our wedding day. Oliver is friendly and easy to work with and was willing to meet with my husband and I through Zoom, since we live out of state, to discuss the timeline of the day and to ensure that he knew exactly what we wanted. Oliver sent us a sneak peek of our photos the following day and day even unedited they were stunning! He had all of our photos sent to us within his six week timeline and communicated with us every step of the way. I highly recommend hiring Oliver!
