Reviews of Nicole Gesmondi Photographer, LLC (Photo Studio)

Deborah Belaus

Nicole is so easy to work with. She is highly trained in her craft, extremely creative and pays attention to detail. I needed a profile picture and a few other pictures to add to my website. Every business is very different and requires a certain look that compliments the website. Nicole knew what I needed to convey my message. This is highly important for promoting a business. It makes a huge difference having a professional photographer capture your needs. I highly recommend Nicole for all your needs.

I had my headshots done by Nicole. She did a great job and made me feel comfortable. I would go to her for any of my photography needs.

Rick Harris

I was very nervous about having necessary pictures taken and Nicole instantly put me at ease.

Nicole Gesmondi Photographer, LLC was by far our favorite vendor for our May 7th wedding! It was well worth every penny of the budget we specifically set aside for photography because it was most important to us. The moment that I met Nicole at a bridal event, I knew I was going to click with her instantly, and I loved that Nicole and Paul were a married couple themselves. Nicole and Paul were absolutely amazing throughout the almost two years we worked with them (we had a long engagement). Nicole would check in with me regularly about not only photography but also recommended other vendors and always asked how the rest of wedding planning was going, and sometimes I felt like she was more on top of my wedding planning than I was! She was so professional and extremely easy to work with. Nicole and Paul even went above and beyond for our engagement session which took an entire day and spanned across two states. Of course it goes without saying that we absolutely LOVED our wedding photos and cannot recommend them highly enough!!! Book them early because they book up fast…you will not be disappointed!

My family has known Nicole's family for a long time and when I got engaged the first thing my dad said to me was "you have to have Nicole as your photographer" and I'm so happy we did! It meant a lot to me that our families have a shared history and Nicole is an amazing photographer who is well known for her talent across New England. We had signed a contract with Nicole before we had even finalized our venue because having good photos from our wedding day was so important to us! Nicole was so much more than a photographer- she was incredibly helpful and supportive during the planning process and constantly offered recommendations and advice. I really appreciated the extra time she spent helping me figure out the timeline of the day of the wedding and how she frequently checked in with me during the weeks leading up to the wedding to make sure we had every detail worked out. She even held my dress up while my cousin steamed it the morning of the wedding! It was supposed to rain the day of our wedding and while I was initially nervous about it, after talking to Nicole I felt better because I was confident that no matter what the weather, she knew what to do to still get good photos. It didn't end up raining but it was nice to know that we were prepared either way. On the day of the wedding Nicole was so organized and on top of things- which was so helpful given our large bridal party! My husband really enjoyed working with Paul that morning as he and his groomsmen were getting ready and I think Nicole and Paul make such a great team. We were so happy with our photos when we received them a few weeks later and my friends were all surprised by how quickly we got them! Now that our wedding is over we are so lucky to have such amazing photos that perfectly capture every moment of our day so we can enjoy them and the memories they represent for years to come. We can't recommend Nicole enough!

Nothing but the best! Hire Nicole and Paul to capture your big day!!!

Ryan Bates

An excellent wedding photographer, and super easy to work with. Nicole and Paul take the time to get to know their subjects, so they can compose and capture meaningful shots. Every person I've shown our wedding photos to has commented on how great they came out, and the people in our wedding party all said that she was very efficient with time and placement. We couldn't be happier with how our wedding photos turned out, and definitely made the right choice in going with Nicole as our photographer.

Alexa Gold

My husband and I are so happy having worked with Nicole and her husband Paul. We met with Nicole about 9 months before our wedding to discuss her style and what we were looking for. From the beginning, she made us feel confident in how our photos come out. We worked with her for our Engagement photo session and loved the photos so much that we ordered save the date cards and a guest book for our wedding. The quality is absolutely the best! Nicole was in constant communication with me leading up to our wedding, and felt like another one of our friends taking photos of us throughout our wedding day. She also turned around all 600 of our wedding photos in less than a month! Overall, I can't say enough how much I appreciated the ease of working with Nicole and the quality of her work and products. Thank you!

I love my pup, Bessie, more than anything, so it was important for me to capture her loving spirit on film. Thanks to Nicole I now have beautiful photos and memories from our session. Bessie says "woof woof thanks!"

Marybeth MacPhee

Nicole is an excellent option for busy professionals. The studio is convenient from 95 and 195, and the sessions was efficient. She was able to produce great headshots in less than 30 min - and I even changed outfits during that time. She also was gracious in working with me on retouch edits until the photo had the look I wanted. I would recommend her highly.

Revival Vintage

I had the pleasure of working with Nicole on an amazing styled shoot in Newport, RI. Nicole was extremely pleasant and easy to work with throughout the entire process. She is super detail oriented, creative and the photos are just awesome! We traveled to various locations in the Newport area and Nicole was quick to suggest interesting shots, poses and really helped the models feel comfortable. Nicole's work was just beautiful and some of the photos were published in a Newport Magazine! I am really looking forward to working with her again in the future. If you are looking for a great wedding or family photographer, look no further! Thanks Nicole

I had a boudoir shoot with Nicole and she is beyond helpful! I didn’t expect her to be so welcoming but once She began snapping photos you can tell she went in the zone. She helped me feel more comfortable and even provided positive feedback so that the picture would come out even better. She even let me put my own music on which really got the ball rolling! When anyone asks me about it I can’t help but brag because when I did receive my photos they looked like they should’ve been in a magazine! I have never looked or felt so good she was far from what I expected!

Anyone can take a picture. Anyone can buy an expensive camera, hack their way through editing software, and turn out a picture. What Nicole Gesmondi accomplishes is far from just a picture. Nicole is our go-to for all our major life events - engagement, marriage, and now our children's photographer. Her professionalism, warm hospitality, creativity, and an attention to detail have captured many of our happiest moments permanently. We've experienced a number of challenging situations yet she has an uncanny ability to take it all in stride and produce an exceptional product. She captures moments as they happen, not forcing or staging. She understands the styles and desires of her clients and works diligently to achieve their goals. The beauty of her craft is that words are unable, and unnecessary, to describe it. The photographs she takes - and memories she preserves - speak for themselves.

Erin Colligan

Nicole is the only photographer I recomend!! She's professional and has an amazing eye for detail. I've sent many brides her way and continue to use her for all of our family events.

Eugene Clark

We used Nicole Gesmondi as our wedding photographer and we are thrilled we chose her! Nicole was a pleasure to work with. She is very reliable, responded quickly to our questions, and makes the effort to understand what we wanted. The quality of Nicole’s work is outstanding. She is very knowledgable about photography and is also very creative. Our special day will be remembered forever with Nicole's amazing photos. We highly recommend Nicole Gesmondi.

Michele Potter

As Mother of the Bride, a premium photographer was high on my list of my priorities for my daughter's wedding. Starting with their engagement photo shoot which included the couple's Westie, I knew my daughter had chosen wisely. Nicole and Paul devoted an entire day to capturing photos across two states! They captured all the photos my daughter had hoped for on their wedding day and then some! They were professional, yet personal and creative. Their work is outstanding and their personalities were refreshing. I would highly recommend Nicole Gesmondi Photographer, LLC without reservation, to all my family and friends. Nicole and Paul work well together as a team, and accommodate every request. The quality of their photography is impressive and is certain to please every bride and groom and their families.

Dan&Bridget Wilkinson

We were incredibly lucky to work with Nicole and Paul for both our engagement shoot and our wedding! They were wonderfully efficient, professional, fun, and we could not be happier with our beautiful pictures! They guided us through the process with ease and always made us feel comfortable. We never had to follow up with them about anything because Nicole was always quick to reach out to us and/or remind us of next steps - not only that but we were shocked at how quickly our photos were done!! After our engagement shoot, we felt relaxed and open with them, which made our stress levels so much better on the wedding day - not only did we know the product would be beautiful, we knew they were awesome to work with! I had multiple guests (including family members and bridal party members) tell me that they could barely tell our photographers were present because they easily blended in with the crowd while getting amazing photos of the entire event! We also had a huge list of photo requests and Nicole and Paul accommodated all of them without breaking a sweat! I have already recommended them to every engaged couple I know in the area! We LOVED working with Nicole and Paul, and could not have made a better choice for our photographers!!

Giselle Gauthier

I would highly recommend Nicole Gesmondi Photographer, LLC to all my family, friends and to anyone who is looking to have some amazing moments captured by pictures. Nicole and her husband Paul make a super team. They are extremely professional, hard working and capture the most incredible photo shots. Don’t hesitate call now!! Giselle Gauthier (mother of the bride)

Britney Teper

Nicole and Paul were a wonderful to work with! My husband and I couldn't be happier with our decision to go with them over the many awesome options in Rhode Island. We had so much fun doing our engagement session out in the snow and our wedding shots are gorgeous! Our family and guests asked me who they were because they were so impressed with how they just blended in on the day of the event. Overall totally satisfied and would recommend Nicole to anyone!

Alanna Botts

We loved working with Nicole and Paul from the very beginning. After being frustrated with other photographers and their slowness in responding to emails and calls, I gave Nicole a quick email to which she responded within 10 minutes. She was so open, flexible and personable even through just email! We had a meet and greet in Nicole’s studio then on to the engagement session! We went all over East Greenwich and had our 100 lb puppy in tow. They were both so accommodating and made us feel comfortable. Throughout the year, we were in contact with Nicole via email. She would check in just to see how we were doing, which was very sweet. A few weeks before, we had legitimized all of the details via email and phone calls. We had felt that everything would be perfect the day of- zero stress. Nicole was able to get every shot I was hoping for and reminded me mid-way through the wedding my list of “must-haves” and which shots I still needed to take. They were not “in your face” photographers and really did blend in with the rest of the wedding. I did not feel they were ever in the way, which meant that they captured some great candids on the dance floor when my guests thought no one was watching ;) Loved the previews on Facebook and the arrangement Nicole had made for the presentation at her office about 6 weeks after the wedding. She was great to work with, always on top of her email and any details, and just a pleasure to be around. We absolutely love our wedding photos and would recommend Nicole Gesmondi Photographer, LLC to anyone who asks 

My wife and I were recently married this summer (July 9th, Portsmouth RI at the Glen Manor House), and we had the pleasure of working with Nicole Gesmondi and her husband Paul for our engagement photos as well as our wedding day photos. As out-of-towners, we started from scratch on our photographer search, and spent a lot of time researching to find a quality photographer in our desired price range. We couldn't be happier with the full body of work that Nicole and Paul brought to our wedding. We first got to meet Nicole & Paul at our engagement photo shoot, which was a really fun afternoon getting to know them. We thought they brought the right mix of professionalism as well as friendliness that made us feel comfortable in the setting. As for the wedding day, we think they nailed it as well. They were prompt, engaging, respectful, and very receptive to everyone's ideas (because everyone will inevitably want a different type of photo taken). There was plenty to worry about on our wedding day, but we learned quickly the photos would not be one of them, as Nicole demonstrated the right level of involvement from the get-go. Outside of the actually photo-taking, Nicole is very responsive in communication, and we loved the pictures that captured our special day! If you are looking for an affordable, quality photographer in the Rhode Island area, we highly recommend reaching out to Nicole.

Ross Pringle

I have to thank Nicole profusely for the fantastic LinkedIn headshot service she recently provided for my team and I. The shoot was quick and efficient in her fabulous Baker St studio (very conveniently located for Providence), and the retouching first rate - resulting in a set of great images and a very happy team. The service delivered from start to finish was always responsive, and it was reasonably priced. I’d definitely use Nicole again and would highly recommend her to anyone requiring a photographer in Providence.

Kelly Ryan

Nicole & Paul were absolutely amazing!!! We just viewed our wedding photos last night and they truly captured every moment that was important to us!!! Having two photographers allowed them to capture moments from different angles and the action shots that they got of the crowd were amazing!! You will not be disappointed, they are the best!!

Dan Puma

My daughter saw Nicole's photos at a wedding show and she thought she wanted to work with Nicole and Paul for her wedding. From my first contact with Nicole, when she wrote a note to say she was looking forward to working with us, I knew my daughter was right about choosing them! They are complete professionals and fabulous photographers! The photos from their engagement session and the wedding day are magnificent! My friends and family are amazed by them, especially when they hardly realized Nicole and Paul were there taking them! They chose an amazing spot on the edge of the water to shoot photos between the ceremony and reception and I thought those would be my favorite, but there are so many that I love! Thanks to Nicole and Paul. Now I have to figure out a larger space to put up photos, because I don't want to miss out on enjoying them! Teresa Puma

Alicia Baldasaro

My company and I found Nicole Gesmondi for our annual corporate head shots and were so pleased with the quality of her work and her excellent service. Not only did she travel onsite to our office, she did two offices in one day so our employees did not have to travel as much. I highly recommend Nicole, she works with your specific needs and schedule!

Dan Kuhn

If you’re looking for a great photographer, stop looking. Nicole is the one. Go with her, and you’ll be glad you did!

Bunny Reynolds

For many years I wanted to have boudoir photos taken but I couldn't find a photographer that put me at ease. I highly recommend Nicole Gesmondi, she is the ultimate professional and produces beautiful work - I enjoyed my session and was thrilled with the final results!

Carolyn Watson

My husband and I selected Nicole Gesmondi Photographer LLC to capture the joy of our 50th Wedding Anniversary Party in October, 2016. We are happy to say that we couldn't have been more pleased with the beautiful and unique photographs that Nicole, with the assistance of her husband Paul, took of us and our guests, in the gorgeous setting at The Glen Manor in Portsmouth on a star-studded Autumn evening with a full moon!. We have shared our photographs with all of our family and friends and everyone is amazed by the quality of Nicole's work. The hardest part for us is choosing our favorite pictures from the hundreds that were taken at our special celebration! In addition to being a fantastic photographer, Nicole is a delight to work with! Thank you Nicole & Paul

sylvia Shangani

I hope you are doing great. I just wanted to thank you so much for the abundant attention to detail and kind professionalism that you demonstrated when we visited your studio for a passport photo. The contrast between what we received at your office and at the few other places we had tried before finding you is vast. Although online reviews and a reference from a fellow photographer had indicated that your work is superb, our actual experience was simply stellar. Finding a keen, yet patient and personable expert is so rare in today's world. We will bring our kids for family pictures at some point, but even before then, we wanted to say that we are more than pleased to make your acquaintance. With sincere appreciation, Sylvia.

Patricia Moore

Nicole brought an extraordinary level of talent and artistry to our wedding photos. We've heard countless compliments on the photos, both from a compositional and a professional competence perspective. Nicole was delightful to work with and the entire experience was pleasurable. We can recommend Nicole with no reservations.

Hannah H

I had my corporate photos done with Nicole. Not only were the photos technically perfect (flattering lighting, great backgrounds, well positioned) but she captured my personality in such a professional way. I didn't expect there to be so many great shots, because I'm unfamiliar with being in front of the camera. The photos are wonderful and I've received many compliments. Not only that, but Nicole delivered my edited photos to me in less than 18 hours. I'm very pleased with Nicole and her professionalism. Highly recommended.

Aubrie Talarico

We couldn't be happier with our experience with Nicole and Paul were super professional and easy to work with - no pressure at all. They were really interested in capturing the moment and our preferences on how we envisioned our pictures to be. We hardly noticed them at all on the big day, even if the pictures prove they were there catching every moment! The photos are lovely and they were done in a really reasonable amount of time too. Really can't say enough how much we recommend them!

Lauren Rosenblatt

Nicole and Paul were absolutley amazing! They managed to capture our day perfectly. Every single one of our pictures is beautiful! Working with them was the best wedding desicion we made. Nicole is professional and an all around pleasure to work with. My husband and I felt so comfortable around them. We used Nicole Gesmondi for our engagement and our wedding. I would not hesitate to use her again.

Allison Sgambato

Nicole photographed my daughters baptism. She was punctual, professional and so kind. She was extremely patient with my daughter (who cried during all the pictures after the ceremony!) Nicole had so many different tricks to try so that the baby wasn't screaming in every picture. I have to add that this was the first family event since the passing away of my mom. Nicole was able to capture several family photos that show family members faces once again filled with joy and love after so much sadness. The photos Nicole took will forever be kept near to my heart as they are a reminder of the love we share as a family.
