About Olivia.

cont...

New momma. Ice cream addict. Maybe a bit of a dreamer. Jesus lover. Major Swiftie.

I'm originally from charming New England–specifically, Attleboro, MA–but I’ve been a Georgia Peach since I was 16 when my parents decided to uproot everything I ever knew. Ah, yes, the drama–teenage angst and all that. MANY tears were shed. While I often find myself reminiscing and journaling about my childhood home and the stunning New England Coast, my life wouldn’t be the beautiful assemblage of marriage, motherhood, and wedding photography that it is now had we stayed put! 


People often ask me how this
whole thing got started, and the answer isn’t anything groundbreaking. Do you remember when you were younger, just old enough to realize that you had a sort of say in how you lived your life? Well, I chose to live mine through the viewfinder of a small digital camera. I took that thing everywhere! Later, I would spend the days browsing through old scrapbooks, all the while adding my own photos to them. It wasn’t until I turned 14 when I invested in my first “big girl” camera (where my younger brother quickly became the victim of my muses as I practiced).

Hey Friend! I'm Olivia.

You are all part of this art that I get to make. Cheers to savoring those moments that really matter!!

There was something far greater at stake. Documenting our memories, documenting joy, love, and all that is the beauty of our lives. 

Now, as I step into motherhood with my baby girl Alaina Rose, my days may look a bit more haphazard- split between preserving your memories and creating memories of my own.

But I still come back from every engagement session beaming. I still feel like a kid on Christmas morning when I get my film developed. And I still carry the gravity of what it means to be your photographer on a day as sacred as your wedding.

The life experiences I carry with me shape the way that I approach working with you, always with a focus on togetherness, nostalgia, intentionality, and JOY!


 And I want you to know I’m always rooting for you in every stage, not just as the one hired to tag along during these milestones, but as a lifelong friend. 




Suddenly, I found myself in my senior year of college (go dawgs!), and I was constantly taking photos of my friends. For fun, for grad photos, for college projects, even family photos. But I’d avoided starting a photography page…why? I was so afraid to fail. I loved photography and it mattered to me. It felt like a part of who I was, and giving people the power to say I was good or bad by liking or not liking my posts felt horrifying. 


Also during my senior year of college, I lost a close friend, Amy Lee. She loved pictures almost as much as I did, so she was the subject of many of my photography projects + film classes. I have never been more thankful to be “the friend with the camera,” because the magnitude of photos I took of her that showcase her joy and excitement for life are absolutely priceless to me and all of her friends and family. 

Through my grief and anxiety and a lot of prayer, I realized my photography is a gift that matters and needs to be shared. It mattered more than my own ego and whether people told me I was good at something or not.

                                     relish sitting                                            in the sun.                                             And I still

                                         Ultimately,
                                        people may
                                   not. remember
                                    what you said
                                 or did, but they
  WILL remember how you made
  them feel. The  life experiences
 I carry with me shape the way that I approach  working with my clients with a focus on togetherness, nostalgia, intentionality, and JOY!

I try to live my life in a way that looks failure or anxiety in the face and says, “So what? Watch me.”

And I want my clients to know that I’m always rooting for them in every stage not just as the one hired to tag along during these milestones, but as a lifelong friend.

Absolutely loved my entire experience with Olivia!! She did an engagement shoot and photographed our wedding! She is so fun to work with, professional, kind, and truly passionate about her work. She captured our wedding beautifully and I am in love with all of our photos and memories from the day. I would rate 100 starts if I could!! Exceeded all the expectations I had and would definitely recommend her to everyone!" -- Aura & Edward

"AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!!!

"I hired Olivia for my wedding and just recently took my engagement photos with her and WOW that experience couldn’t have gone any better! I’d been so nervous to be in front of the camera, especially with my partner, and was nervous I’d be awkward and it would be uncomfortable, but she knew exactly what she was doing and made our time together seamless! She was simultaneously like a fly on the wall just capturing our love, but also had the balance of knowing how and when to step in to pose us and give us ideas of what will look so cute! I love how she talks about her clients on social media and overall love her philosophy of capturing a couple love story and not just taking cookie cuter pictures. Everyone who saw my photos said they could feel the happiness and joy coming from us, which is exactly what we wanted. She has such a caring and calming presence that made our nerves go away." -- Zafyre & Josh

I take pride in sharing your love story with the world, but my relationship with you is what matters the most to me. 

This is your freaking wedding day. 

When most people think of a job, it’s synonymous with a “chore.” That’s not what this is.     At all.

Because I don't treat your wedding day like a job. 

Why Olivia Rose Photography?

The Dreamboats.

I just love people. And I want them to love themselves too. 

Tell Me About You

The couples I love to work with care more about getting married over having a wedding. They’re steadfast and loyal, and they don’t follow trends that aren’t completely aligned with who they are. 
When you lean into the process with me, I promise your photos will be a mirror of your feelings for each other.

These are photos of you, made FOR YOU. 

That you walk away knowing that you had one of the best days of your life, and that it was captured in the most creative, intentional, and confident way possible!

What I Wish for You.

I hope you feel....
