  • Photographer
  • Classic style

Hey! I offer a photo-journalistic style with a dynamic twist to provide high-quality images that couples will treasure long after they’ve said “I do.” Couples working with me can receive their final high-resolution images in the form of digital files, prints, and Albums. After photographing many weddings over the years, I know the importance of capturing your most important moments in an authentic and creative way. You deserve photos that are full of life, personality, and creativity.

Chris is the first vendor we booked and we are SO glad that we did! Chris treated us as a friend, not just a customer. We greatly appreciated his patience and openness both at our engagement shoot and our big day! We had periodic rain on our wedding day and he was able to adapt and get so many amazing shots and some phenomenal night time photos also! We are so glad we had Chris as our wedding photographer and highly recommend him!

I own a team of DJs that vary in style format and price. I sit down with every couple ( if possible) and customize a program that focus on you and your fiance's style. We show you many different styles so you can hand pick the PERFECT DJ for your special day.

I've had the pleasure of working with D & J DJ Service on several weddings, and I can confidently say they are a fantastic choice for any couple. (Don Timlin DJ'd my own wedding in 2021!) Their communication style is both funny and quick-witted, making them a delight to collaborate with. What really sets them apart is their genuine generosity - they go above and beyond to ensure the couple's vision is brought to life. The quality of their work is unparalleled; they are truly knowledgeable about music and sound, and they always listen and understand the couple's preferences. I highly recommend them to any couple looking for a fun, professional, and reliable DJ.

Ne'Kea and the Art of Beauty team were impeccable. I needed someone who could do both makeup and hair, and my wedding party had a spectrum of races, skin tones and hair types. This was not a problem at all for Ne'Kea and her team. Contacting her was easy and her responsiveness was prompt and professional. She worked with me to schedule my trial, which could have been a challenge because I live in New York and the wedding was in Baltimore. We ended up doing the trial near me in New Jersey and it couldn't have been more convenient. We had some last minute schedule changes with my bridal party on the day of the wedding and the team handled it easily. And my makeup and hair were exactly what I had envisioned. Everything was perfection!

Sarah was an invaluable resource to us both during our wedding weekend and throughout our planning process. She helped develop our aesthetic and style choices as well as speed up our planning process by recommending vendors within our price range (she helped us find our DJ, who was awesome). She was easy to communicate with if we had any questions and her calm, cool demeanor gave us confidence that we were in a good spot with our planning. Then on the wedding day, she executed everything on the money. We were consistently ahead of schedule throughout the day, and we both felt we could lean on her if we needed something.

Hi, I am Ta'Tra. Most call me Tay, I perform all my own stunts, I believe in the magic of creation and I absolutely love my job! I'm a quiet force on your biggest days capturing and enhancing moments as they unfold. I specialize in portraits, lifestyle photography, and weddings!

Awarded Best of Zola
Tay is an absolutely phenomenal photographer, and I feel so blessed and honored that we chose her to capture our wedding. From our very first Zoom call, Tay radiated warmth and approachability. She not only listened but genuinely understood my vision and experience—often more than I did, which made me feel so at ease. She became a safe space in the whirlwind of wedding planning, and that sense of trust and comfort was invaluable as we prepared to capture the most important moments of our lives. I was very particular about the photographic style I wanted for our wedding. It was important to me that the images felt natural—like anyone looking at them could feel as though they were right there with us. I also wanted crisp, high-quality photos, and Tay delivered all of that and more. Our wedding photos are absolutely stunning. On the wedding day, Tay and her team were incredible. Tay was like a shadow in the best way possible—always present but never intrusive. There were times I’d think, “Where is she?” only to realize later that she was exactly where she needed to be, capturing every moment flawlessly. At other times, it felt like she and her team were right in the mix, blending in so seamlessly with our family and friends. They made it so easy for Jeff and me to stay in the moment and be fully present throughout the day. The experience and expertise Tay brought to the table were worth every penny. I’m so grateful my sister recommended her to us, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any bride who wants to look back on her wedding day and feel nothing but magic. One thing I do wish we had done—and something I highly recommend to any future bride and groom—is taking the engagement photo shoot. We booked Tay about five or six months before our wedding but had already done an engagement shoot with a friend, so we kept putting it off until it never happened. Looking back, I realize how valuable that experience would’ve been. It would’ve helped us prepare better for the family photo sessions and be more conscious of certain poses, like during our first kiss. While our photos are still breathtaking, I believe the engagement shoot would’ve given us that extra edge of confidence and familiarity, which is one of its biggest benefits.

I deeply consider each space—its colors, textures, metals, and light—so the final designs feel cohesive, intentional, and full of life.

The Wilmington Florist was absolutely spectacular. After meeting initially with Elizabeth, my fiance and I knew that she was the florist for us. She immediately got the vibes of our vision and the entire process was clear and smooth. The florals for our wedding were more than I could have ever dreamed of. I last-minute asked to change the bridesmaid bouquets to monoblooms and they came out gorgeously. My bridal bouquet and our ceremony & reception florals were also spectacular. So many of our guests gushed over how ethereal, unique, and beautiful the blooms were. We can't thank Elizabeth enough for making our day so special and beautiful!

Awarded Best of Zola
CT Artistry was by far one of the best choices I made for my wedding day! Christine was able to help answer any questions and made suggestions for me and my skincare routine during my trial run for the makeup. Because of her suggestions, I ended up with a healthy glow on my skin and less wrinkles so I didn't have to wear concealer at all for my wedding! I was thrilled about that since I wanted to have my freckles still show through and have a more natural look for the pictures. Even my husband, who prefers when I don't wear makeup, said I looked like me while highlighting my best features. Not only that but her skincare recommendations are something I've continued since then. She also did the make-up for my sisters and friends in my bridal party (even including my older sister who had reservations since she has sensitive skin). She was able to provide make-up for her without bothering her skin at all. Thank you Christine for everything on our special day!

"Every time I look through a camera I'm surprised. It's like finding yourself in the middle of a story." - the 1995 film Sabrina. Your wedding day photography should tell a story! What made you laugh? What made you cry? What do you want to remember most (besides all of it!?) We love capturing the details and emotions of your day with bright and bold images that you will love looking over in the years to come!

Katie was helpful, professional, and everything was clear about the process from when we first spoke through receiving our pictures. We got our pictures a little earlier than I expected, and everyone in our family raved about how well Katie captured our special day. She had asked in advance about our expectations, and made sure to feature the types of pictures we wanted and to capture all the DIY details from our wedding which was extra important to me. She paid attention to our family dynamics, and everyone felt comfortable with her. I have so many photos to choose from, and now our house is filled with beautiful portraits that look just as crisp enlarged as they do on the computer screen. Katie even followed up with a few nice touches like a custom thumb drive for the photos and an ornament at the holidays. We would absolutely choose Creative Image again!

We enjoyed a picture-perfect wedding in June 2025 at Deerfield! The staff, particularly Lizette and our day-of coordinator Ryan, were instrumental in making sure our day was a success. We were sent a list of vendors that had experience working at Deerfield, which we felt was a huge aid in narrowing down our choices. You aren’t required to use these vendors (photographer, videographer, DJ, florist, bakery, etc) but we felt it was definitely helpful. We used recommendations from this list for all vendors and were very happy with the outcome! We note that you do have to use the in-house catering service but you are given a lot of freedom in the plates you serve with some customization from the ‘default’ plates, and we had a lot of fun attending the menu tasting a few months before the big day. We chose the champagne chicken and filet mignon as our two main entrees; you are also given a third entree option to offer your guests with dietary restrictions. The venue is gorgeous - we toured it on a gross spring morning in the pouring rain and even then there was ample natural light in all of the spaces. The views of the golf course at sunset are incredible and the space really lights up after dark, with the fountain and patio also open for guests. We are so happy to have had our wedding at Deerfield and can’t recommend it enough!
