I want to create more than just pretty pictures, I want to capture the emotion, the nervous excitement, the joy, of your special day. This is the launch of your new life together. God has created you to be united as one. I want to create heirlooms that strengthen those bonds.

I had the best experience ever with perfektion films. Trevauhn is easy to work with, talk to, and he makes it easy to feel comfortable. My husband and I are awkward and hate taking pictures but it was a breeze and the pictures are gorgeous. People are always saying how great his personality is and how kind he is, never mind the rave reviews i get about my pictures. Couldn’t recommend perfektion films more highly.

We met Rayleen years ago during a family photo shoot. We knew from that day that she was who we wanted for our wedding. She was so laid back, kind, easy-going, and we never felt that awkwardness of having our photo taken. Our wedding photos came out beautifully, I still admire them 3 years later. Rayleen and Tim are creative and do amazing work. We have used Rayleen ever since for different occasions! She’s our absolute go-to for life’s greatest moments, not to mention and overall wonderful person.

This little hobby of mine that started back in 2015 has become an absolute dream come true!! Photographing weddings is my second favorite part of this job, with meeting the most amazing couples being the first! I knew from the start that I wanted my business to be focused on creating an amazing wedding experience that caters to each couple in a unique and memorable way! I pour myself into each couple because that's what a wedding day should be about! I also love Ninja Warrior, Starbucks, and my sweet kitty Feather!!

Chelsea and Ryan were amazing! Very flexible when I decided to add more coverage time like a month before. And the quality of the photos is just amazing! And the speed with which we got our photos back was also great! We didn’t have to wait long at all to be able to relive the best day of our lives through the photos! It’s so difficult to choose my favorites! They are honestly just the nicest humans and it was amazing to work with both of them. I have nothing negative to say! You can’t go wrong if you choose to work with them! I promise you will be so pleased with the outcome!

Mark B. Carrier Photography

Smithfield, RI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Derby, CT

Hey friends! What is the value of a photograph? Well, if it’s art, then its value is determined by the status and popularity of the artist, in most cases anyway. If it’s that one moment at your wedding when your fiancé reads your love note for the first time, sheds that one tear they swore wouldn't happen, then it’s a moment you need captured and archived, because its value is incomprehensible. I’m going to capture that moment and preserve it forever you! Hi! My name is Mark! I'm a wedding photographer in Rhode Island and I'm really excited you're here. Send me a message, I'd love to chat with you about your wedding vision.

I’ve worked with Mark for several weddings and I recommend him highly. As a makeup artist I remember those fellow vendors that made my job easier, but most importantly, the day smoother and more fun for those getting married! He is friendly, calm, professional, unobtrusive and makes everyone feel at ease. I have heard from those that hired him how wonderful he was. He is confident in his craft and with people. It feels like he genuinely likes people and what he does. When I see his work, the colors are as vibrant as they were in real life and my makeup on clients is not “washed out”. In addition to his positive demeanor that makes him a pleasure to have around, and the makeup looking beautiful in his photos, I believe his photography style captures the spirit of the day and brings people closer to reliving the excitement and happiness of such a beautiful life event.

Cate Barry Photography

5.0

Hamden, CT
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,900

I am a Connecticut-based wedding and portrait photographer obsessed with candid moments, real emotion, and the connections between human beings. I strive to capture life as we actually live it: full of beauty and roughness, joy and struggle, extravagance and simplicity. When I photograph you, I’m not thinking about getting likes on social media. I’m thinking about what will make your heart grow three times its size. I’m thinking about what will make you ugly-cry, looking back. I’m thinking about you seeing how awesome and truly loved you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly can't recommend Cate highly enough. When my wife and I were looking for wedding photographers I kept thinking that so many of the pictures looked either like stock photos or the Goodfellas poster, and Cate perfectly matched the exact opposite of that energy. We literally rescheduled our wedding around her availability and would do it again in a heartbeat. She was a delight to work with; if she weren't photographing the wedding, we probably would have invited her as a guest after the first few times we chatted over Zoom. And the pictures, of course, were incredible--both in quality and in sheer numbers.

Hi, it's Jenni, I am a couples and wedding photographer based in Connecticut. I love hikes and adventures, nature is my natural habitat and my biggest dream is to travel the world. I am hopeless romantic and I will probably shed a tear at every wedding I attend or photograph, so if you see me wipe a tear at your wedding no you didn't lol. I am also a dog mom and I love animals in general, my puppy means the world to me! I am a dedicated, passionate, fun and caring person and I put love in everything I do. I can't wait to work with you!

Awarded Best of Zola
Jenni and her husband did our engagement photoshoot last fall and were our wedding photographers this August. From our first phone conversation, Jenni was sweet and helpful. She’s someone you talk to and feel like you already know her. Her attention to detail and client connection instantly convinced me that she had to be the photographer to capture our special day! On our wedding day, Jenni was calm, creative and collaborative with our videography team. Jenni above and beyond! When our wedding party limo bailed, she was quick to problem solve and get me to my wedding. When our timeline got pushed back a little, she made she that I got to eat and drink during cocktail hour. My husband and I are in awe of our sneak peak wedding photos and can’t wait to see the full album! We will definitely recommend Jenni to our friends and plan to work with Jenni in the future.

I am animated, honest and fun! I am a mom, wife, teacher, avid runner and overall a very passionate person. I love my family, anything nautical and really enjoy a great glass of bubbly at the end of a long day! I'd love to meet you!

Erica and her team were incredible. Starting from our engagement photos (which we loved!) Erica worked to get us more comfortable in front of the camera and ready for our wedding day. In between then and the event, she was communicative, supportive, and available. On the day itself she brought her usual AMAZING energy that made us feel at ease, and impressed our whole family with her ability to organize, get the shots, and let us get back to the party! I would also be remiss if I didn't mention the incredible team she brought with her. Not only did they match her positive and upbeat energy, but they helped capture some amazing moments for us and our family. I find myself returning to our online albums every few weeks and liking a few more pictures each time that "I can't believe I missed". I am so grateful we had Erica as our photographer and look forward to years of looking back at these pictures and reliving the joy she captured.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800

At every wedding, I'm constantly alert to the small moments that make a day unique: a father's kiss, an heirloom kerchief, a ring bearer getting licked by the groom's dog. I see beauty everywhere on a wedding day. I spend the entire day smiling. My face usually hurts on my drive home ;)! Although I'm primarily photojournalistic in style, I know how to take charge for posed portraits. I've been a photographer full-time for over ten years, and I can be quick and efficient for group shots, so you can get back to your party! I also love sneaking you two away for some lovely portraits when the light is perfect.

Awarded Best of Zola
Stephanie was absolutely AMAZING! If we could give 10 stars we would. During our consultation she was so reassuring and did not mind my many questions (and trust me there were a lot). Our day was so full of love it was overwhelming after the wedding to remember everything. With her artistic eye and ninja like movement she caught it ALL. From the natural blending moments of our families to the personality of both my husband and I together. Five years later we look at pictures or scroll through our wedding book and every happy moment comes flowing back. Thank you Stephanee, you are truly talented.

There were a few changes in our schedule that we made, based off of the flow of the day, and Max was completely adaptable and happy to work with us and give us what we wanted. We also got hundreds of pictures to choose from, which we were pleasantly surprised by, based off of how quick he works. We also appreciated that he put together a payment plan with us, instead of asking for all the money at one time. We would gladly work with him again any time.

Hi I'm Jackie, and I literally love my job! I’m a New England-based photographer for the last 18 years. I have to admit though, I love taking this one woman show on the road and travel makes me the happiest. I have been lucky enough to shoot destination weddings in England, Iceland, and Alaska. I would describe my photography style as very laid back and natural. The little in between moments make for the best photos, and I’m not about capturing awkward prom poses and forced smiles. I want the real stuff - the stuff that’ll make you laugh till your cheeks hurt and will make your heart beat faster.

What else can I say? Awesome awesome photographer. Kept everyone at ease, took wonderful photos, everyone loved her, she kept my wife calm (big plus!), and you can tell she absolutely loves what she does which is refreshing. Would really recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer and piece of mind for your wedding day.

Hey! I'm Amanda. I’m a mama to Loretta Grace & Amelia Faye, wife to John & friend to YOU!! I love natural posing and I am a true candid photographer. Prompting you to do the silliest things, knowing you think I’m crazy, and then showing the end result is one of my favorite things ever. I take a lot of pride in my work, my business, and the overall customer service I provide my clients. It’s important to me that you feel heard, seen, and respected. I spend my free time Diamond painting, listening to true crime, and eating way too much sushi.

I highly recommend Loretta Grace Photography, LLC. Our original photographer was under the weather but she was able to coordinate with Loretta Grace Photography. You know someone is talented at their trade when a colleague recommends them! Additionally, the owner of Loretta Grace is very professional and made things run smoothly. Our photos came out great and she truly captured all the pinnacle moments of the ceremony and reception.

I’m a husband, a dad, and a photographer. I love spending time with my family and cannot get enough of my kids. If I could dance and be silly with them all day long, that’s what I’d do. It could be the Frozen soundtrack or 90’s hip-hop, either will work. I’m easily lost listening to music (I use to be a battle DJ). Exploring and be adventurous are good things. I’m always thinking of the next destination and where we can go. It doesn’t have to be a big trip. It could be down a country road, driving by the horse farm, around the corner from my house. I’m a dreamer.

Awarded Best of Zola
I'll start by saying I am SO thankful my sister in law found and hired Tim as the photographer for her wedding a few years back because since then, he's become our 'family photographer'. The second my now husband and I met Tim at their wedding, we knew without a doubt we wanted him as our photographer when we got married.. and we are so incredibly happy we did! Tim' is not only an amazing photographer who can camera-awkward couples (us) look like their shooting for a magazine, but he is all around such a genuine, awesome person who makes you feel like you're hanging out with a friend. From our engagement photos to our wedding day, Tim captured so many beautiful moments that we will cherish forever. And we can't wait till the next person in our family gets married so we can see him again :)

Growing up near cameras, flashes and lenses, my father was a photographer for a newspaper, and I loved developing photos with him in his darkroom. For the last few years, I have launched CC Garvie Photography and could not be happier--I love it ! Every new project is another exciting adventure, as I continue to develop my vision. I love capturing those precious moments, so we can look back one day and say, "wow look at that, remember when we took that photo?" That is photography to me, "preservation". And once you look back at those memories--the warm and fuzzy feelings we get in our hearts--it is priceless. Let me do that for you.

My husband and I hired Cece for our September wedding and we could not have been happier with her services and her talent! Our photos came out beautiful! She was very communicative with us, professional, and so easy to work with. Honestly, if we ever need professional pictures down the road it will be with Cece.

Our favorite photos are the ones that show your true selves, the ones where you are caught off guard, where you aren't paying attention to us running around, hiding behind bushes to get the frame, laying on the ground to change the angle. When we aren't taking photos we are dreaming of taking photos. We're married! We have a few kids too! We're creative, quirky, lovers of inspiration.

I don’t even know where to begin. To put it simply, Julianna and Noah are the BEST! They literally do it all - from wedding pep talks, jokes to keep you laughing through the stress of the day, managing our rather large family for photos, keeping everything fun and enjoyable, to creating insanely beautiful and unique photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to work with or for more incredible photos to remember our special day. We hope to get the chance to work with them again in the future!

Oh, hey! I’m Dana. I am a free-spirit with a true love for connection and raw emotion. I’ve been known to get caught up in the experience and have a passion for storytelling, so my photography is candid and emotive. I’m also a sucker for a gorgeous, natural backdrop so there’s nothing better than capturing an honest moment with a killer landscape. ​ When I don’t have a camera in my hand or a client on the therapy couch, I’m busy being a Mom to twins and wife to my partner, Brandi. You can also find me decorating our home or researching our next spontaneous adventure.

We have been using Dana for about 2 years now, and she has photographed myself and family from fall portraits to a surprise vow renewals and continuously leaves us speechless with every ‘unveiling’. Dana is easy to work with. Her sessions are effortless and honestly most times we all can’t stop laughing. Her eye for detail is spot on and her creativity in the moment is so much fun to be apart of. I highly recommend using Dana for your photography use because you will not be disappointed!

Hello and thanks for stopping by! My professional career as a Connecticut wedding photographer started nearly 20 years ago after attending photography school in Vancouver. I returned home to Milford, CT in 2000, started the business, and have been capturing wedding stories ever since!

My husband and I were so lucky to have Kevin at our wedding. He is a delight to work with, came up with ideas for our portraits and was a pleasure to have around. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. We have only gotten a few photos back because we were only married 2 weeks ago, but I have no heistation in recomending him highly and without delay! He has a fresh, relaxed style. We were more interested in the "Money Shots" and candids than anything formal. Kevin did do some formal portait shots, so don't think that he won't if you want that, but we are really looking forward to our photos. He was wonderful to communicate with and could ot have been easier to work with. His prices are reasonable. You will be a lucky couple indeed if you can secure his services! Do not hesitate.

Shari (a west coast girl) and Jason (an east coast guy) began their photography careers in 2001 after meeting at a small art school in Western Massachusetts. From there, they went on to assist various commercial photographers in New York City where they eventually explored the world of wedding and portrait photography. At that time, wedding photography was especially traditional. Many wedding days were all about staged moments or re-enactments. However, a few studios in Manhattan were beginning to experiment with a more editorial and photo-journalistic approach, which immediately appealed to the young photographers.

It sounds cheesy but I love capturing authentic and candid moments and giving you photos that you can look back on and love; I've been photographing for over 20+ years. I never realized (until going full-time with photography) that photography has always been such a present part of my life; I love documenting these moments and having them to look at later. I notice all of the small details, the exchange of smiles during a ceremony, or the look in your partner's eye when they see you for the very first time walking down an aisle. I'll capture it!

I reached out to Jenn to shoot my proposal at Jay Peak Resort in Vermont. She drove to the resort the night before so she could scope out good spots before my fiancé and I arrived. When it came time for the proposal, I texted her saying that we were going to be at the top of the lift in about 15 minutes. When we got off the lift, I asked if she could take a picture with us. Jenn played it off and mentioned she’s actually a photographer with her own camera. My fiancé was taken by surprise and we had an entire shoot after. The photos came out beautiful. We couldn’t be happier with the whole experience and will hire her for our engagement shoot as well.

I fell in love with wedding photography and the emotion it brought out for everyone involved. Family, love, laughter and memories are four things that I think about on a daily basis, I’m practically addicted. When I’m not obsessing over wedding photography I am spending time with my wife Brittany, two sons and our two huskies. We look forward to capturing your day!

Mark, Brittany, and their team are truly the absolute best of the best. They made every moment, from the first call to the engagement shoot to the wedding day itself, a breeze. Brittany is a master at keeping everything calm and protecting every wish the bride has--which is something I will never forget or be able to thank her enough for! I cannot wait to work with them again for all of our future photograph-worthy moments. I can't write enough good things about them; they made the day the dream that it was.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

When we started planning our wedding I knew that I wanted to work with Isaac. I had been following his work on Instagram for a few years after my friend got married and I always love the energy and emotion he can capture in his photography. The photos are bright and colorful and feel very natural. After meeting Isaac, he is one of the nicest people and it was a real pleasure to have him at our wedding. And the photos turned out just as I had hoped. There are lots of great family shots, the details of the bridal party getting ready, setup and all of our guests enjoying the reception are really fun. And the sunset photos have a magic quality to them. I definitely got so many photos its difficult to decide which ones to print and frame for the wall.

I discovered Randall Garnick Photography back in Fall 2019 when my husband and I were newly engaged and checking out Elm Bank in Wellesley. While discussing services the venue offered, we happened upon a wedding album on a table in the meeting room. As we were flipping through the photos, I was drawn to how beautifully Randy was able to capture this couple in their element. There’s something truly magical about being able to capture candid moments. With what I previewed, I didn’t need to go online to read reviews for Randy to know that I wanted to book him for our wedding. With his warm and inviting personality, working with Randy was truly a delightful experience. We had our engagement photoshoot at deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, literally a week before the world shut down during the 2020 pandemic. The museum was already shut down to the public, but the sculpture park remained open. Randy really took his time in finding spots in the park to take our shots. But what I loved most about his style and technique was that he didn’t tell us how to pose, as to not create heavily curated photos. Instead, he simply gave us suggestions or a general direction on what we could do, so we had the freedom to act as we pleased and knew Randy would find that perfect candid moment to capture. Our original wedding date was supposed to be in October 2020 but got postponed to October 2021, and Randy was responsive and accommodating to those changes. When our wedding day finally arrived, Randy and his assistant, Wayne, were on their A-game the entire day. They even catered to our silly request in taking photos of us eating our appetizers. Thanks to Randy and Wayne, our wedding day at Elm Bank lives forever through all the beautiful photos that were captured. I can not recommend him enough. Thank you again, Randy and Wayne!

There’s truly not enough words for me to express how much we LOVE Lindsay and everything she does! She is one of the sweetest, most personable people we’ve ever met. She makes you feel so comfortable and truly knows her stuff! All the way from our engagement shoot, she was so accommodating in helping to pick a location, and then helping to reschedule and pick a second location when we got rained out!! She turned around out photos SO FAST and they were all breathtaking. For our wedding, we had Lindsay and Nathan for photo and video, and again they did NOT disappoint. I had initially wondered if I should have Lindsay bring a second shooter, but decided to opt against it, and truly Lindsay’s photos turned out as if there were MORE than two shooters. She sets up still cameras, and between her and Nathan moving around like ninjas we have more angles and more photos than we could have ever thought possible. Our photos and our video all turned out better than we could have DREAMED. Her style is light and bright and beautiful but she has an amazing ability to also capture moody-type photos. Lindsay made sure we got to take photos in all of the locations around our venue that were important to us, but also did her research and came prepared with some location suggestions within our venue as well. Once again, Lindsay turned everything around in way less than the timeframe she quoted us, which is amazing since we got married amidst the height of busy wedding season. Lindsay communicates quickly and efficiently, and kept in touch with us through every step of the way.

Where do I begin, Heather is an incredible talented photographer to work with! Goes above and beyond to do a great job! Through a recommendation of a professional wedding hair stylist, we were introduced to "Heather Olker Photography". From the start, Heather's approach and her overall personality was one that aligned completely with us. You will come across several vendors during the wedding planning process that have overpowering personalities.. Heather and her team are very well organized, responsive, sweet, helpful and communicated very well with us and with our coordinator at the venue. She helped us in creating the perfect timeline for our wedding day, made us feel completely comfortable through the process. Responded promptly to all our questions and concerns. She traveled from NY to Boston to photograph our engagement photo session, and wedding photos. Which we absolutely love!!! All things being equal, my husband and I are not the most photogenic people ;) The engagement photo session (which I encourage everyone to get one, if only as an opportunity to get to know your photographer before the big day) it allowed us an opportunity to see Heather as someone who completely goes with the flow with our collective vision. There is so much attention to detail you put into your wedding day and those memories are all now fleeting. But investing in someone like Heather and her professional team for your wedding day, capturing the pictures of not just you, but more importantly to us - our family and close friends - was the wisest investment that we could have made last summer.

I cannot recommend Justina enough. I started planning my wedding early, and was originally just looking for a photographer who was in my budget whose pictures I liked. I found Justina and fell in love with her style!! During the planning process, Justina and I had several meetings where we went over our timeline and shots my husband and I wanted. Justina was flexible and communicative the whole time. More importantly, I loved chatting with her and I felt like I was chatting with a friend. I felt like Justina really “got” me and what I was hoping for from our wedding pictures. After the wedding, Justina returned a HEFTY preview gallery with stunning pictures. There were some posed and some candids. I mean when I say I have never felt as beautiful as I do in those pictures. Working with Justina was awesome, she’s awesome, the whole process was awesome, and our pictures our awesome.

From our engagement photos to the day of the wedding, they were super organized with details & communicative each step of the way (which is very appreciated when planning so many wedding logistics, it's easy to forget or miss things). We had a few changes during our day of planning and Cassie was so flexible with the changes and offered solutions. What's even more awesome is that literally within a few hours after our wedding, they sent us sneak peek images of our wedding day! We were able to share with our friends and family while everyone was still in the celebratory mood, and everyone loved them!

He has an eye for things that most people wouldn't have seen. I've had the pleasure of getting to work with him several times now and he's so kind and has such a calming presence which is exactly what you want from your wedding photographer/videographer! I'm currently helping my sister plan her wedding and when she got engaged he was the first vendor I sent to her to look at. She was blown away, as I knew she would be, by his work and loved how his wedding videos felt so natural, candid, and also didn't look like every other wedding video. His ability to tell a story both in photograph and video is remarkable. As a wedding photographer, if I had to redo my wedding day, I would without a doubt have Steve there to capture it.

Jason is incredible. He is a talented photographer and storyteller, and a great business person to boot! He is exactly who you want your friends and family to interact with your wedding day. I would highly recommend him to any person looking to capture the essence of their wedding day and of their beloved family and friends. Regarding the business perspective: my partner and I planned our wedding from afar and from the start Jason was responsive and easy to work with. I admire that he didn’t pressure us on hurrying to book the way other photographers did and he made the time to connect with us. He was also able to process photos quickly and with high quality. Regarding the photos: we purchased his engagement and wedding day package and I could not be happier and think he was priced very competitively. My partner and I had previously had engagement photos done with another vendor and their quality was not even comparable to Jason’s. Because of Jason’s photo journalistic nature and our desire to avoid a lot of staged poses Jason built a beautiful story of us and our engagement and wedding day. His photos are striking, surprising, and beautiful. He captured heartfelt moments that I did not see during our wedding, too. Our friends and family are in love with the photos that we have shared with them and we are so honored to have had Jason capture our wedding day. I cannot wait to look at these photos for years to come and relive our wedding day!

It's been almost 2 years since we were married, and looking back on our wedding album, I am so glad we found Tati. As we suspected, our wedding day was a whirlwind. With so much happening at once, it took some time to ease into the moment, and at times, it was hard to stay in the moment.

Two Upper West Siders. Twenty blocks apart. How had we not crossed paths before? Or did we? Well, after finally matching on Hinge we made that happen and the rest is history! We have combined families and now as a family of 7 (three dogs, two cats) we have become an unstoppable force. We both share the same passion for photography, capturing the beauty all around us and making magic happen. Our dog Lucy, embodies love, kindness and poise. We couldn’t imagine naming our business after anyone but her. That’s how Love, Lucy Photography came to be.

Not only are they both lovers of Taylor Swift (so am I so we had lots to chat about!) Bethany and Raquel are phenomenal photographers/people in general and you shouldn’t hesitate to book them. I’ve recommended them to basically everyone I know getting married or has even the most distant of plans to get married. They go above and beyond the basic responsibilities of photographers and genuinely love documenting love. I hope to book them for literally anything in the future. They were the very first vendor we booked in our entire wedding planning process and set the bar waaaay too high for everyone else. They were one of the few vendors we reached out to that did an initial Zoom consultation. I think based on rom-coms I had this crazy idea in my head that wedding planning was done through in-person appointments, but I quickly learned most is done through emails and phone calls making it all feel a little impersonal. Our first meeting with Bethany and Raquel was amazing and it felt like they were actually invested in learning about us as a couple (they definitely were!) and the type of photography experience/style we were looking for. Their kind and thoughtful personalities led us to book them for our engagement shoot and wedding straight away. They definitely can meet you at whatever level of crazy you’re currently running at. For example, for our engagement shoot I had made a whole powerpoint of the types of shots I wanted as well as potential outfits. I did a complete 180 by the wedding and I told them I trusted their artistic vision completely and had no shot list other than the groupings for formal portraits. The photographs came in while we were on our honeymoon and we were blown away by the gallery. Everything was beautifully photographed, edited, and curated. On the wedding day my husband and I were excited for our first look partially because we got to see each other, but also because it was a hang sesh with both of them (lol!). They are wonderful people who put you at ease whenever you chat with them and become your genuine lifelong friends along the way. Many guests complimented their work style in which they weren't intrusive during the ceremony, but were constantly snapping both candid and posed photos. We didn’t want our wedding to feel merely like a spectacle –we wanted it to be a gathering of all our loved ones, so Bethany and Raquel's candid style was a perfect match for us.

Words truly cannot describe how incredible Kristen is - as a photographer and a person. As soon as we met Kristen for our engagement shoot, we knew she was our photographer… forever! She has such a talent for capturing who you are as a couple in such a natural way. On our wedding day, she went above and beyond from the moment she arrived: making staying on schedule feel effortless, making sure that my complicated dress was entirely zipped and buttoned, pinning boutonnieres, fixing hair pieces, ensuring that the ceremony was set up perfectly- and, most of all, making everyone feel so comfortable and at home. I truly felt as though I had my very good friend with me all day. During our reception, she had a sneak preview of photos rotating on her tablet - everyone was absolutely floored by how amazing her photos were and by how quickly she was able to make that happen. When she could have been taking a break, she took the opportunity to get us outside when it wasn’t raining to take some amazing intimate pictures in front of the venue with lanterns that she had brought herself (and that we absolutely loved!) Then, the next day, we received a sneak preview of 40 photos that had us in happy tears! Kristen’s incredible work ethic is matched by her personal touch. It’s her ability to build a relationship that is absolutely amazing. She has a warmth and a kind spirit that is instantly felt by everyone. Again, going above and beyond, she sent us a gift package when we signed our contract, and a beautiful and very thoughtful year-end gift that we will treasure forever. We love Kristen, and we can’t wait to work with her again! Hiring Kristen will be the best vendor decision you will make :)

A dad, a son, a brother and a jack of all trades musician that loves to rock out any chance I get. I grew up in New York City. My inclination towards photography came from classic street photography and photojournalists from all over the world that told their stories through a lens. It made me pick up a camera and start shooting. Now, living in Maryland I shoot all sorts of stories and moments locally, domestically, and abroad. It's taken me a while to figure out what my "thing" is but I've come to figure out that I'm a milestone photographer. The moments your life that have proven to be meaningful -- I'll be there.

Sam absolutely covered every single little detail of our wedding. It was great to see things we didn't even catch as the day went by. He assured us every step of the way. He caught all the candids we could have ever wanted and posed us like a pro when necessary. Probably the best at communication out of all our vendors and is still the person we come to with our new milestones. A maternity session is definitely going to be in the mix soon

Eugene did an amazing job for us at our wedding shoot. Helping with all aspects of the shoot, getting the most out of the location, and the pics with individual family members. He got fantastic pics with our 1-year-old son, which isn’t easy. He was polite and courteous throughout kindly guiding us to get beautiful pictures that we treasure. The end result was much more than we could have imagined!
