Brooke Seminick Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Chester, CT

Hi, I'm Brooke (she/they) I'm a Massachusetts based wedding & elopement photographer. A client once told me that I captured things in their wedding photos that until then they had only ever felt. I saw this as the ultimate compliment. My goal in every session is to do just that: Turn an intangible feeling into a tangible image that will make your heart soar every time you see it. But what does love look like?

Awarded Best of Zola
When I say that Brooke went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect, I truly mean it. When my wife and I decided to get married, one of our biggest concerns as a T4T couple was finding a photographer who was someone that could make us both feel comfortable showing up as our authentic selves. I’ve known Brooke for over 10 years and have always known they were an amazing human being inside and out, so when I discovered that she was diving into wedding photography (this was back in 2019) I knew exactly who to go to. When it comes to our trans identities, unlike many wedding vendors who just treat that like some major issue or something they need to be like “stepping on glass” to deal with, Brooke handled our wedding with nothing but the uttermost respect, dignity, ease and kindness. In addition to being queer friendly, she also is just so amazing at making you feel good behind the camera. My wife and I are extremely awkward picture takers and I was so worried that’s what you would get from our photos. But that was NOT even remotely the case. We adored the outcome of our photos because we just look so naturally happy and in love. The photos still, even now, bring so much joy to my heart when I look at them. They will probably be my forever background photos on my phone so I can always see them for that reason. I will forever be grateful for choosing Brooke to work with, and any photo needs that I have in the future will always be in Brooke’s hands, as now I trust no one else to make us look as good. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! If I could give more than 5 stars I absolutely would!!!!

Our style is artistic and documentary, and can be described in three words; Sincere, Scenic, and Inspirational. Sincere, we will never ask you to act unnaturally in front of our camera; we will adjust to your personalities and photograph you as you are. Scenic, because we love beautiful landscapes and love to incorporate everyone in such environments. Inspirational, because there is always a new way or a new idea to capture a photo but in the end it's capturing that special moment.

Your wedding deserves more than background music. It deserves moments—like the perfect song as you walk down the aisle, or that one song that gets your grandma dancing at the reception. I help create those moments. From your first “hello” at the top of the aisle -- to your last dance of the night, I make the music for your day personal, seamless, and stress-free.

Ashley went absolutely above and beyond for my wedding, from learning extra music without being asked, keeping the crowd dancing and moving through the ceremony hall and the reception hall with ease.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Blissfulstills Photography! From the moment we booked them for both photo and video for our wedding, I knew we were in good hands. Noble and Stevenson, our photographers, were absolute pros. My husband and I are terrible at posing, but they made us look like naturals in every single shot! They guided us through the entire process, making it fun and effortless, and the results were beyond stunning. But the real jaw-dropper? Carl, our videographer, crafted a wedding video that looks like an epic movie! Every moment is captured with such cinematic flair—it’s a masterpiece. Even a year later, I’m still in awe every time I watch it. The way they captured our day is something we’ll treasure forever. I recently found out that they don’t only just do weddings! I’m already planning to book them for every special event in our lives. Love you guys!

As a part of your wedding, we will make it a priority to review your timeline ahead of time, and make day of questions much less due to good communication and organization beforehand.

Such down to earth people who are able to catch the little things that mean a lot. I am so glad that we trusted them to photograph our wedding because they made sure that what we got back was more than we could have ever expected. They made all of our family feel comfortable while taking the photos and we weren’t worried that they had missed any. The way they give you your photos organized on the flash drive helped a lot too, by keeping things in categories for us so we were able to make an album without any trouble.

Avec Lamour! I cannot say enough about the services that are executed. Avec Lamour captured our wedding day recently this past October, 2023. The videos were so beautiful it was all my wife and I could ever hope for. We had the pleasure of working closely with John Hill (owner of Avec Lamour) a talented cinematographer. When searching for a videographer I personally knew that I did want my wedding day to be captured and documented much differently than the usual wedding videos seen today. Although beautiful, my wife and I agreed to have more of a cinematic approach. We shortly came across John Hill, a wonderful cinematographer with the skills to capture the happiest day of our lives and turn it into cinematic art. A love story that captures all viewers attention and one my wife and I will cherish forever. Our overall experience working with John was exceptional! Heidi is a very cool down to earth guy that really gets your vision. John is timely in responses and the delivery of the finalized product took only just a short few weeks we were so thrilled! We highly recommend Avec Lamour to capture your special day especially if you are wanting a cinematic experience!!

Why, hello there. I'm the creative behind the lens. I am a Canadian who pursued his true love, got married and found himself in the United States. It turns out, it can take some time to receive permanent residency, which led me to pick up a camera and fall in love with the art.

I don't even know where to start regarding Zhaun!! From our engagement photos all the way to our wedding day, he was so remarkably supportive, reassuring, & honestly invaluable the entire process. My husband & I always joke that we're remarkably unphotogenic & can be awkward in front of the camera-- but all of that really washed away with Zhaun. I know you've all seen the more cheesy or uber serious photographers, & Zhaun truly met us where we were & was able to create such a wonderfully laid back vibe. His photos obviously speak for themselves & it goes without saying, but holy MOLY is he talented!!! I made a pinterest page with different 'inspo,' wanting our photos of the big day to capture a lot of the joy in the little interactions with not only us, but all of our guests & boy did Zhaun deliver & then some!! We cannot thank him enough for all he's done for us!! You're the best!!! xx K&J

Hi there! I’m Daniel Martinez, and I’m thrilled to connect with you! My passion for photography ignited at just 14 years old, and I’ve been dedicated to this creative journey ever since. With a decade of experience in wedding photography, I’ve had the joy of working with fantastic publications like ESPN, PDN, and The New York Times. I focus on a documentary style, capturing genuine, candid moments that tell your unique story. My goal is to create a relaxed atmosphere, allowing you to fully enjoy your special day while I document the heartfelt connections between you and your loved ones. I’d love to chat!

From the very first conversation, we knew he was our guy—and we immediately forgot about everyone else. I’m usually not one for being in front of a camera, but Daniel made it all feel so easy, so relaxed, and honestly… SO MUCH FUN. He has this magic about him that makes you feel comfortable and hyped all at once. Our guests have not stopped raving about him—literally everyone was obsessed! And somehow, the very next morning, he had already sent us nearly 300 photos that blew us away. Each one better than the last. I LOVE THEM ALL. Daniel and his team were not only incredibly professional, but also genuinely kind and such a joy to be around. I honestly don’t think we’ll ever look better in photos again! He knew exactly where to shoot—from hidden corners of our venue to the most epic street shots. I’m still in awe. We cannot wait to see the final edits, and I really really really hope we get to shoot with him again someday. If you’re even thinking about booking Daniel—do it. You will not regret it. He’s a once-in-a-lifetime kind of photographer!!!

Everyone raved at how beautiful it all turned out and how well it all fit the setting. Even up against cherry blossoms in peak bloom at our venue, Marigolds’ flowered were still standouts. Anika also was able to source locally and worked with an eye toward sustainability, which meant a lot to us. She was a pleasure to work with and I would strongly recommend!

When we first looked into hiring a DJ, we thought it was as simple as picking someone to play music and get the dance floor going. But we were impressed with how much more there was to it, and Collins Entertainment had it all covered from start to finish! There were so many details that we had not considered, like doing a "farewell dance" towards the end of the night. They also offered perspectives that we had not considered, like the benefits of doing wedding party introductions since we had not done programs. Because there is a team of DJs and they take incredible notes, it also means that there is a seamless transition in case of any emergencies. Our original DJ had a family medical emergency, but his colleague was able to step in without missing a beat (pun intended). We highly recommend!

Bill was wonderful for my June 2022 wedding. My hair was just perfect and even survived the unexpected rain. I wanted to feel like myself and Bill helped to create the perfect relaxed, but special half up style I was hoping to achieve. He is kind, funny and professional. You'll be in great hands!
