Idena and her husband Mike were absolutely amazing!! They helped make our wedding so special. They were so sweet and fun, we felt so comfortable around them and they did such beautiful work. Everyone at our wedding came up to us complimenting how Idena and Mike didn't miss a thing! And the pictures we received for our sneak peek showed that. We are SO happy with the pictures we received so far. Book Idena for your wedding!! -

Wow- where do I begin? Idena Beach is not only an incredibly talented photographer but more importantly, an incredibly kind, generous and supportive person. I booked Idena for my July 16th wedding because I loved her photography. It's in the moment, vibrant and you can truly feel the emotion behind her work. What I didn't know when I booked Idena was that she'd stick out as the most incredible vendor I'd work with throughout my wedding planning process. I explained to Idena "my vibe" in a very round about, half making sense way and yet she just got it. After a couple of Instagram interactions and emails I felt like she really took the time to figure out what I couldn't articulate about what I wanted for my photos and how to accomplish them. When I needed a new florist 7 months out from the wedding- Idena sent me options and ultimately, one of those options turned into the florist of my dreams! Idena goes ABOVE AND BEYOND for her clients. Despite not meeting until the Friday of our wedding weekend, I felt like she was a friend. She fully met us exactly where we were at and embraced our slight chaotic, at times a bit inappropriate and wild group and just got right in there to capture the magic of the weekend. Oh, did I mention her incredible partner, husband and videographer Mike was as fun, down for anything and professional as she was? They truly are a dynamic duo. My husband and I's friends were a WILD bunch and these two really kept up. From the first look pictures on the wedding day throughout the dance party- Idena and Mike were right there, in the action, not missing a MOMENT. And when it came time to select a song for our wedding video- of course, Idena hit the nail on the head the first try with her song idea. She truly takes the time to get to know the couples she works with and that is priceless. Oh also- we ran almost an hour a head of schedule the entire wedding day because Idena and Mike were so on it, making sure we got the shots but not taking more time than needed. No one felt exhausted or frustrated by the pictures- everyone was just enjoying themselves! Do not hesitate- HIRE THEM! She is worth every (very fairly priced) penny and I am forever grateful to have had her capture our special day. Thank you endlessly Idena and Mike. -

Absolutely incredible couple to work with! Idena and her husband, Mike, we’re extremely professional and I received SO many compliments from friends stating it was the best photography they’ve seen. They felt like family. I will forever be a fan of their work. Anyone in the VT area NEEDS TO HIRE THEM! You won’t be disappointed. She captured all the special moments with the best lighting and the wedding video was sensational. Would recommend her 10000%!! -

I knew Idena was my dream wedding photographer before we even got engaged! When it came time to pick a photographer it was a no-brainer. We like to describe her photography style as "real life but better", and that's what she and Mike captured for us on our wedding day. I'm a high stress person typically, but I knew that photos weren't something I had to think twice about because they had it handled completely and helped our day run smoothly even when things much outside of their control (or job description) needed some help. We had an unfortunate situation with our DJ and when Idena saw I was upset she took the time to sit with us and calm our stress and then whisk us away while things were taken care of. Mike jumped into action to make sure speeches were happening on time and get cords set up for us to keep the music going. They went above and beyond what we could have ever expected, and even more they were so kind and supportive in the days following our wedding. Our wedding day ended up being even better than we could have imagined because we had amazing vendors like Idena and Mike and they captured the beautiful moments following with our friends and family that we will never forget. We are absolutely obsessed with our photos and couldn't have asked for a better team to be apart of our day! -

Brittany Sent on 07/20/2022Stop shopping around and hire Idena now!
Hiring Idena is the single best decision you can make for your wedding other than marrying your fiance. There I said it. My husband and I started looking for a photographer knowing that we would be hard to please. We wanted to find someone who would capture the small moments throughout the day and would display the personality of our family and friends. Not just pose and snap. The second we saw Idena’s work and met her in person we knew our photo prayers were answered. She is one of the most genuine people you will ever meet which is so important to have in a photographer who will be with you all day. We had an amazing experience with her for our engagement photo session in Stowe, VT that we knew our wedding day photos would go off without a hitch. The day of our wedding Idena and Mike showed up early and immediately clicked with our entire wedding party and other vendors. Our bridal party is still talking about how fun they were to be with. Not to mention the photos came out AMAZING. We even had someone ask us if they were going in a magazine because they were so stunning. Idena and Mike captured every moment and small detail. Nothing felt too staged. Hire Idena immediately. Your search is over! -

The most beautiful photography
Working with Idena was an absolute joy. We had the pleasure to work with Idena from our engagement photos through two wedding events. Her style is gorgeous and warm and exactly what we were looking for. Idena always knew how to make us laugh and feel comfortable. She was professional and communicative. We feel so lucky to have worked with Idena and can’t wait to hang these beautiful photos in our home. Thank you so much! -

Alison C. Sent on 10/31/2021Absolutely incredible!
Wow-- where do we even begin? Idena (and Mike!) were absolutely incredible. We started planning pre-COVID and when I saw Idena's photos, I knew right away that I wanted to work with her...what I didn't realize was how incredible she would be to work with throughout the entire planning process. She answered all of my questions (and there were many!) and helped reassure us during the craziness of COVID wedding planning. Then-- the day of, she was seamless. I felt so at ease with her (even though we are so awkward in front of the camera!), and we just had a great time. It started raining exactly when we were supposed to take family portraits, about 45 min before the ceremony, and she kept me calm -- and made me laugh when she yelled, "Can someone get the bride a drink?!" She and Mike were lifesavers. Beyond all this-- the photos are absolutely stunning and more than we could have ever dreamed of. She captured everything perfectly, and I can't stop looking at them! I've had multiple people tell me her photos are the BEST they have ever seen, and I agree. We are so thankful we went with Idena and would recommend her and Mike to anyone--we are so lucky and I would consider her a friend!! -

From the first time we connected with Idena we knew we wanted to work with her. Planning through Covid was a challenge and she was extremely kind and accommodating. Idena and Mike were wonderful to spend the day with. They were very easy going and fun to be around. So far I’ve only seen the sneak peak and the pictures are stunning. Thank you both for the wonderful work you do and helping make the day run smoothly. -

Blown away by this wedding photography team!
I almost didn't leave a review for Idena and Mike bc they are TOO good that I truly didn't know where to start! I'm not sure how, but Idena and Mike captured every pure emotional moment at our wedding in addition to giving us the most beautiful portraits as well. I've never been more impressed. They were able to capture and portray moments of pre-wedding excitement/nerves, the seriousness and intensity of the ceremony, and the constant laughter and joy in our faces during the reception. Idena and Mike are the sole reason that we will get to look back and remember every moment, every feeling, and see all the important people in our lives celebrating with us. We could not be more grateful and happy for these photos. Side note - it was practically blizzarding on our wedding, and they managed to make us look perfect in heavy snow downfall, never complained or seemed uncomfortable in the cold/snow, and we have the most monumental photos to show for it. We love them -

The most amazing!
Idena was an absolute delight to work with - from the moment we first reached out to inquire about her services to the day of our wedding. For a couple who is not the most comfortable in front of the camera, she put us at ease and made the experience fun for both of us. We loved having the engagement shoot to get to know her and her style, and the pictures turned out amazing. While we planned to have Idena and her husband shoot photos and video at our wedding of 125 guests, due to COVID, we ended up moving forward with a small ceremony with our immediate families. She captured the intimacy, love, and happiness perfectly. Idena's talent, professionalism, and demeanor is unmatched. We cannot recommend her enough! -

Easygoing Idena made me feel comfortable instantly. I'm usually the one behind the camera, and felt very nervous about being captured while getting ready, walking down the aisle, dancing, etc. We chatted, we laughed, she captured tender moments planned and unplanned. A thunderstorm arrived just 5 minutes after the outdoor ceremony, so we all had to rush inside for most of the family photos. Idena was flexible and good-natured through it all, quick to come up with solutions. She even thought to capture the two of us later, after the rain had stopped and the sun had fallen—what became our favorite photo of the day! Simply a joy to work with. -

Ken W. Sent on 10/05/2020a miracle wedding during covid
When Janet and I first met Idena we knew she was a true professional, however, as we worked with her, we found out very quickly she was also an incredible artist. She photographed our Engagement pics outside by Kent Pond and Killington Mountain and despite the cold blustery breezes, they came out gorgeous.
> We had to reschedule our Wedding plans of over 100 people and reduce to 19 guests plus the priest due to Covid restrictions. During this extremely difficult time, Idena was very supportive of whatever we both needed to do. We ended up having a very intimate beautiful wedding at Our Lady of the Snows, followed by a great intimate reception at Simon Pearce. I have to mention, Idena was easygoing and very supportive of our “Plan B” wedding. Idena was phenomenal and so calm to work with us every step of our wedding day July 5, 2020, she made us feel like we were the only people in the world. Our family also commented on her professionalism and patience with everyone. Idena gets 5 stars in our book.
> Weddings are stressful to plan, however during Covid it brought stress to another level. We feel truly blessed as it was a true miracle to have had a beautiful wedding during this time in history. We were all so fortunate and happy to work with Idena as her work is impeccable. The covered bridge; the mass, the waterfalls and Woodstock Inn photos were so beautiful. Not to mention the proofs and our final wedding album were sent in a very timely and extremely professional manner. We would highly Recomended Idena if you are looking for a true artist and photographer who will enhance your wedding Day. Idena’s wonderful, calm attitude along with her true professionalism is who you want to hire for your “special day”. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Idena. Xo

> Sincerely always, Janet and Kenny.
