Hello and welcome! I’m Alex Gordias, a Cape Cod Wedding Photographer, but my camera and I have journeyed across New England and far beyond – All over the US, Europe, and Indonesia. My mission is to capture moments that become your cherished memories for a lifetime. Timeless style and photojournalism help me to create the best one-of-a-kind memories. I’ve explored Nantucket, a charming island off the Cape’s coast, extensively, and I’m eager to use its picturesque settings to enhance your special day. This post is dedicated to showcasing my work as a Nantucket Wedding Photographer.
With studios located in both Cape Cod and Boston, my journey in photography has been enriching and rewarding. Over the years, I’ve not only honed my skills but also earned international recognition. In 2019, I was honored to be ranked among the Top Wedding Photojournalists in Massachusetts by WPJA, and in 2021, I was named one of the top 50 international wedding photographers worldwide.
My photographic journey isn’t confined to the United States; I’ve had the privilege of working on assignments around the globe. Capturing photos that you’ll treasure forever is what drives me, and I dedicate myself to delivering images that exceed your expectations. But beyond the photos, it’s essential for me that you feel relaxed and enjoy the experience, even if you’re camera-shy. I strive to make the entire process enjoyable and comfortable for you.
I have won over 60 international and national wedding photography awards, which I am so honored to have received. Currently, I am a member of several wedding photography associations, including WPJA (Wedding Photojournalist Association) and FEARLESS photographers.

The Sankaty Head Golf Club is a private golf club located in the east part of the island. It holds a tennis facility and a gorgeous beach view perfect for any pictures. It is one of the most popular and prestigious golf clubs, making it perfect for any venue.
Additionally, on the property stands the infamous Sankaty Lighthouse (Sankaty Head Light). With its iconic look taking photos for a wedding or an engagement is perfect.
The White Elephant is a luxurious resort standing on the island for decades. The hotel looks down on a port filled with sailboats, which adds to a beautiful and unique background. The resort also holds several pools, so if you wish to take poolside photos, you most definitely have that option here.
The Brandpoint Lighthouse is within walking distance of the resort and offers the ability to take beachside photos with a lighthouse background. It is a known landmark on the island and can fit in beautifully with any beach-style picture.
The Whales Watch Estate is a luxury beachfront estate located in the southeast section of Nantucket. Roughly half of the acreage of the estate is the beach, and it holds all necessary beach supplies. From paddleboards to lobster pots, taking photos here will not be your average wedding shoot.
Located right near the bay, the Nantucket Hotel and Resort is known and named the #1 Luxury Hotel in the Country by Trip Advisor. Fully equipped with many pools and ocean views, you can not go wrong with choosing this destination.

An Iconic place on the island. It is located downtown, which is most definitely a great place, especially for romantic or Rehearsal dinners. The restaurant also might be a great place for micro-wedding celebrations.
Some more great local places to visit:
The Club House
The Club House is one of my favorite destinations on the island. However, it is important to note that it is not a venue. It contains cobblestone roads and beautiful iconic houses. It is located in the center of town, so anything you may need is within reach walking distance.
Great Point Lighthouse
The Great Point Lighthouse is a historic lighthouse at the northernmost point of the island at the tip. Lighthouses work beautifully for any wedding or engagement photoshoot. The ocean, rich green grass, and a white lighthouse add a clean summer look.
Cisco Beach
The Cisco Beach is a rustic sand beach with a gorgeous ocean view. Many bike paths are available where trail shoots can be arranged. It is usually low-key and is not overcrowded, so we will have the beachside to create any photos you may desire.
Thank you! Your wedding Nantucket wedding photographer – Alex Gordias.
