Meet the Griswolds

Hi! We’re Paulette and Matt- a husband and wife team capturing fun, personality filled images that feel like a genuine reflection of you and your day.

Our approach blends photojournalistic and editorial styles to create photos that don’t just look like your wedding, they feel like it. We capture who you and your guests are, from the quiet in-between moments to everyone raging on the dance floor. We want to document the connections, laughter, and joy that makes your day yours.

Paulette couldn’t have made the process any easier. Communicating with her was a breeze, and she understood exactly the kind of vibe we were going for. And then of course we were blown away when we received our wedding photos. They’re stunning. Paulette captured our energy so well, and we’re so lucky to have such gorgeous photos of our day. She’s amazing!

Oh my God, I am overwhelmed at the sheer beauty of the pictures! Thank you for giving me what I WANTED the day to be like… I am crying tears of joy, right now, thank you for your artistic eye(s) and for the wonderful job you did.
— Maureen, mother-of-the-bride
We worked with Novella Photography and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. I was looking for a photographer that had an artistic style but could capture candid moments. She did both beautifully!! I am so happy with the variety of photos we received. She also make a point to photograph every guest, which is really unique and special. Every single person I have shown our photos to are floored, one of our friends said our wedding photos were the best they’d ever seen. Paulette is awesome, accommodating, friendly, and funny! She did such a great job, I just can’t say enough.

The pictures are AMAZING!!!! You guys did an absolutely unbelievable job. They are perfect and really capture the day… I can’t even find the right words to describe how great they are. I cried, laughed and everything in between. You guys rock.
— Kerri
We have gotten so many compliments and we couldn’t be happier with them and working with you! You made us feel comfortable and did an amazing job capturing the gorgeous scenery! Thanks for sending these, I can’t believe how quickly you work! It is so appreciated!
— Nikki & Matt
Gorgeous, intimate, authentic, romantic—the photos blew us away. The way Paulette works with lighting is incredible. Her professionalism, kindness, and easy-going demeanor made it an absolute pleasure to spend our wedding with her! She helped us pose in ways that felt comfortable, but also captured the unexpectedly beautiful moments. The day after the wedding, we received our “sneak peek” photographs—it was the best “day after” gift. I would book Paulette again in a heartbeat and cannot recommend her highly enough.

These are ah-mazing!! We love them and the both of you!! Thank you so much for rolling with the shenanigans and getting weird with us. We really want to thank you for pulling us out of the reception during that gorgeous golden sunset — it truly was an amazing excuse for James and I to have a special moment to ourselves and bask in the natural beauty of Becket. We feel so blessed to have met you both and have you there with us on our special day.
— Doris & James
You guys were so great last night. Super impressed with how ‘invisible’ yet present you were. There were a few moments where I was like ‘oh, the photographers would want to get this’— and as soon as I started looking for you, I realized you were actually there the entire time. I’ll definitely be reaching out to you in the future. :) 
— Joe, Wedding Planner (Contagious Events)
We just wanted to extend a very sincere and heartfelt thank you. You guys were awesome and so much fun to work with, and quite literally every member of our wedding party and immediate family made unsolicited comments expressing the same sentiment. Having people who are good at what they do is great, but having people who are good AND blend so well into the dynamic of our close loved ones made it that much more special for us. Thank you both so much!
— Meesh & Pepe

Location & Travel

We're based in Western Massachusetts, but we've photographed weddings all over the US and abroad. We love new places, so we'd be thrilled to drive, fly, hike or sail to any destination you need. We're on the road a lot and we're serious about adventure, so no request is too outrageous.
