Paige McWhorter Photography

Paige McWhorter is a Boston-based photographer who specializes in architectural photography and portraits and also photographs events, working in the Boston area and beyond. She describes herself as a good listener who likes to learn the story of a place or a person and then capture that story visually. Clients praise the energy and joy in her images, and one recalled how she quietly worked around the chaos of an important day to get beautiful shots.

Photography has been a lifelong interest for McWhorter, who started with a point-and-shoot camera and her brother’s hand-me-down photography books. In architecture school she considered becoming an architectural historian, drawn more to the history and imagery than to the physics, without realizing she could help create those images. Years later, after having children and living through the pandemic, she decided to bet on herself and launched the business she had never dared to dream of.
