You can expect photos that look like you. As an expert with over 10 years of wedding experience, we can anticipate interactions to capture natural emotions. During portraits, we’re prompt and direct in posing so you feel comfortable and look like the best version of yourself. We know when to step in and direct for incredible photos and when to step back and capture the true emotion.

A custom wedding day timeline to ensure your day runs smoothly. We offer a hands on approach to creating your perfect wedding day timeline.

We want you to be fully present with your loved ones on your wedding day knowing that you have your own subtle paparazzi (The Poirier’s) that will blend in with your guest to capture the real emotion of your day so you can relive those timeless memories for years to come.

Our style is a fusion of photojournalistic along with a modern casually posed flair. We approach each wedding as a love story waiting to be captured. We believe in preserving all the beautiful details of your wedding to complete your story. We love to photograph everyone having the time of their lives celebrating your love as a married couple. Real reaction and real emotions are what we strive to capture. We also understand there is a time during the day to direct and lightly pose you both, along with the family for those must have family formals. We would not want any upset parents and we stay true to the immediate family portraits; that we all have come to love over the years. Our images are fun, authentic and timeless. 

Yes, we are skilled photographers and can work in all types of lighting situations. Whether rain or shine, day or night a wedding must go on and we pride ourselves in the ability to capture amazing images regardless of the elements presented to us. We love natural light photography but what do you do when there is no light. As wedding photographers, we need to be fully prepared to work in any type of lighting condition because you never know what you may encounter on the wedding day. Therefore we are considered full-gear wedding photographers meaning we will bring all the proper equipment to each event we photograph. Do not make the mistake and just trust any photographer for your wedding day. Choose an experienced and equipped photographer because you only get one shot to capture your wedding day. Make sure to visit our blog to view our most recent work: http://blog.poirierweddingphotography.com

We began our wedding adventure in 2010 and over the last 9 years we have had the honor of photographing over 450 weddings. Our wedding experience is priceless. We approach each wedding with advanced technical know-how and we are able to individualize our approach to ensure we capture your wedding story that is unique to you. 

The photographers are always either Stacey or Brandon Poirier. 

 We are pleased to announce that we offer video. Over the years during our wedding adventures, we have discovered that weddings are fast paced with lots of emotions at every turn. You plan your wedding many months and sometimes years in advance and before you know it, the day is over in a blink of an eye. Our goal at Poirier Wedding Photography + Films, is to make sure you enjoy every moment while in the moment. We believe your wedding is an intimate celebration with your family and friends, and should not be a production with a large team pulling you in all different directions to capture the moment or make you repeat the moment for the camera. Our team works flawlessly together to beautifully capture your day without being obtrusive or competing for the shot.

We have photographed at many venues over the past 9 years so there is a good chance we have. However, if not, we always arrive extra early on your wedding day to do a walk through to find the best locations based on backdrop and lighting. We also research your venue online prior to your wedding day. 

We do! We are based in Nashville Tennessee, The Smoky Mountains, and Palm Beach, FL. Although many of our weddings are in Florida and Tennessee, we love to travel wherever you would like to take us. We have photographed weddings in Maine, Cape Cod, The Bahamas, The Keys, and our most favorite magical location Disney World Wedding Pavilion. Please contact Stacey for more details.

We carry over $20,000 in professional Sony digital camera equipment to every event we photograph. We use all Sony camera bodies and carry a full line of Sony professional lenses. Too many to list! We are full-gear wedding photographers and bring all the proper lighting to skillfully document your wedding. We have multiple lenses and camera bodies as back ups in case of a malfunction.

I am sorry but we can not hold the date or pencil you in without a non-refundable retainer and a signed contract. This is to ensure we are fair to everyone. We accept bookings on a first come-first served basis.

Once you have decided on the right collection for your wedding day. I will send you the contract. The total contract amount is broken into three payments. The first is due with the contract, the second is due 60 days before your wedding day, and the final payment is due about a week before your wedding. This fully secures your wedding date with Poirier Wedding Photography. In the event the wedding is canceled, the retainer and all monies paid are non-refundable because once we have a signed contract we do not accept any other commissions for your wedding date.

First, we grab the umbrella to capture some really cool images of you both. Then we search for a location inside your venue that will make for a beautiful backdrop for your wedding images. 

As self proclaimed National Park Nerds! We are proud to announce that we are authorized wedding and engagement photographers for the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Stay tuned for the great outdoors adventures to begin!

The best time to book a photographer is right after you book your venue. You want to get comfortable with your photographer and allow time to have a conversation about your vision and specific needs for your photography. When you hire a professional photographer for your wedding you are not only hiring someone to take pretty pictures but also a person who is a storyteller. A professional photographer takes the time to really listen to you and your love story.

Most people aren’t used to being photographed professionally so this is a wonderful opportunity for the bride and groom to get comfortable in front of a camera. Think of this as a trial run with the end result being gorgeous photographs of the two of you leading up to your big day. This is also a fantastic time to do a test run for hair and makeup. Your engagement session can be scheduled anytime before your wedding day. I normally suggest booking at least 3- 6 months in advance to avoid stress. Because our weekends are filled with weddings, I shoot engagements on weekday evenings normally 5-7pm depending on the light and time of year. In the winter months, 3-5pm is a normal time frame.

The high-resolution files (the digital equivalent of negatives) are included with all wedding coverage. The files are delivered via a private online gallery that is viewable worldwide and compatible with PC's, MAC and smartphones. From the gallery you are able to download directly to your computer.

Yes, we do and we will be happy to provide your venue with a proof of coverage if needed. 

There is something about holding a photograph in your hands. It connects you physically to the feelings of a time and place that an image on a screen cannot. Your wedding album is important because it is a tangible link to your wedding day. Yes, digital files are a must have but a beautifully hand crafted album is a permanent heirloom you will enjoy and pass down. You will cherish it more and more with each passing year. We carry top of the line handcrafted Italian wedding albums with options of covers, paper, and coordinating accessories for you to choose from.
