Vinny Alves Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (18 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Serves Darien, CT

Hi, I'm Vinny Alves! I am a husband, father of two and wedding photographer in my free time. I am passionate for what I do. My job? To capture it all in a way that feels natural, cinematic, and timeless. But more than just taking photos, I’m here to guide you through the day, making sure you feel comfortable, confident, and fully present in every moment. My style? Cinematic, with a mix of artistic, classic, and documentary influences. That means your photos will feel like a movie—elegant, emotional, and storytelling-driven—while still being true to who you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the honor of having Vinny capture one of the most important moments of my life, my proposal to my fiancée. I chose him because I knew he would be the perfect person for such a special occasion, and he exceeded every expectation. On a snowy day, during a storm, Vinny never hesitated for a second. Despite the freezing cold, he dedicated hours with us in the park, making sure every detail was captured beautifully. The photos turned out extraordinary, truly beyond what we could have imagined. What impressed me the most was his care and dedication. My fiancée and I are not used to posing for photos, but Vinny guided us patiently and naturally through every step, making us feel comfortable and confident. His attention to detail, creativity, and professionalism transformed that day into timeless memories. I am deeply grateful for what he did for us and recommend his services without hesitation. Vinny is an outstanding professional who pours his heart into his work, and the results speak for themselves.

Callie Ying Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (13 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,880
  • Serves Darien, CT

I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in New York and Connecticut. I capture moments that feel alive—honest, emotional, and deeply meaningful. While I love beautifully decorated weddings, I’m equally passionate about photographing celebrations that are simple, imperfect, and real. Your florals don’t need to be full, and your venue doesn’t need to be luxurious. What matters most is your connection. I’m especially drawn to noticing the most touching moments in any setting—your emotions, your interactions, and the quiet love you share.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the absolute pleasure of having Callie as our photographer for both our civil ceremony and our wedding in Hawaii, and we couldn’t be happier. For the civil ceremony, we thought the photos were already stunning—she captured everything beautifully, even though it was just a more low-key setting at our hotel and City Hall. But it was really at our Hawaii wedding that Callie’s talent shone through. She was there from the morning prep to the evening party, and she turned every moment into something that felt like a piece of a movie. The atmosphere, the storytelling, and the almost cinematic feel of her photos were just on another level. Honestly, we got so many compliments from friends who saw the photos and asked us who our photographer was. In short, we can’t recommend Callie highly enough. She made our special days look and feel magical, and we’re incredibly grateful.

Melanie Fan Photo

  • Classic style
  • Serves Darien, CT

Hi, I’m Melanie! I’ve loved photography for as long as I can remember. I have a background in photojournalism with years working in news and creative outlets. That background is at the heart of how I photograph weddings. I’m drawn to real moments, honest emotion, and the story that naturally unfolds when you’re fully present with the people you love. Nothing energizes me more than capturing your wedding day as it truly feels. On your wedding day, I’m not just there to take photos—I’m there to bring your vision to life, hype you up, and tell your story in a way that feels authentic, meaningful, and so you!

From our first conversation, Melanie made us feel heard, eased our nerves, and understood what we wanted for our wedding day. She was responsive to every question and detail we brought to her, which gave us so much confidence in our choice. More than that, she was incredibly warm and friendly and continued to bring that light throughout the whole process. On the day itself, Melanie went above and beyond—she helped me into my dress, cheered us on throughout the celebration, and her whole team moved through the day like a well-oiled machine. The photos she captured are pure art, filled with magic and meaning that we'll truly treasure forever. We would recommend her over and over again without hesitation!

Hi there! Thank you so much for considering Emily Engels Photography for your wedding day. I absolutely love capturing love stories and documenting all the genuine, emotional moments that make your day uniquely yours. From the big celebrations to the quiet in-between moments, my goal is to create timeless photos that bring you right back to how everything felt. I’d love to hear more about your vision, your story, and everything you’re dreaming up for your special day. Whether we chat over coffee or hop on a quick call, I’m excited to connect and see if we’re the perfect fit for each other.

...then you better book Emily! I found Emily on Facebook when she was offering a free engagement shoot after moving back to the east coast. After seeing how amazing those pictures came out, finding out she also photographed weddings was a complete no-brainer. Emily traveled all the way down to the Jersey Shore for our wedding day and was absolutely incredible from start to finish. She was prompt, professional, beyond sweet, and truly felt like my number one fan the entire day. She traveled back and forth between me and my husband to make sure every moment was captured, adjusted her schedule when I was running behind with makeup, and got every important shot I asked for — plus so many more I didn’t even think of. One of the most meaningful things she did was include a photo of a very important family member who couldn’t attend our wedding last minute, but was on FaceTime. When I saw they were thoughtfully included in our wedding album, I was honestly blown away. If that doesn’t show genuine care and love for her clients, I don’t know what does. I cannot recommend Emily enough and will absolutely be using her for every future event we have. I chat with her often on social media and she's the kinda girl that starts as your photographer but forever feels like a friend 3

Hi! I'm Nina! I'm an ex-Brooklynite residing in the beautiful hills of New England. I'm an analog (meaning film) and digital photographer specializing in documentary, editorial, and photojournalistic-style wedding photography. That means more images that are true to you and the moments you live, and fewer posed ones -- though we'll make sure to capture some of those too! With a background in commercial photography I am well versed in creating magical photo sets that capture the grandest and the most subtle moments of your day, and everything in-between. Your pictures are going to be the talk of the town!

As a wedding photographer with many years of experience, I have come to appreciate the beauty of genuine moments and the power of the little details. They provide a timeless and elegant look that truly captures the essence of a wedding day. I am based in New England, but I travel often for weddings! Some of my favorite places to shoot are the beaches and the city of Newport, RI. There is nothing like the White Mountains in New Hampshire. The old cobblestone roads of Boston and the skyline of NYC. Charleston, SC is somewhere I would like to call home one day but for now traveling there for weddings and engagements might be my favorite.

Andy is the BEST in her craft. Her devotion to her couples, their satisfaction and her work is unmatched. She truly cares about capturing the types of memories that couples will treasure for a lifetime. 20/10 recommend!

She was quick to respond and more than willing to help make this unplanned day very special. She was flexible about time and place, whatever worked for us! She was upfront about costs and what we could expect in return. She was extremely professional and focused—she made the most of every minute of our time together with no unnecessary small talk (which we appreciated). She scoped out the setting and quickly noticed all of the opportunities for great shots. we saw her visions come true and her photos were absolutely stunning, creative, and top notch quality. I love her pictures more than I love the pictures from my re-planned wedding a year later. You will not regret working with Veronica!

When we are not working we are outdoors or sitting by the fire. We love traveling to places where the earth is at its greatest. Our superpower is that we know what you are thinking. lol. Our style is Honest, Emotional, Intuitive, and Real. We love traveling anywhere in the world, as long as we're together!

I have the unique experience of being a wedding planner that works with JAG Studios and this past year as a client renewing her vows! I can tell you that they are truly gifted artists and are able to read their clients exceptionally well. They create and forge lasting bonds and capture not just the wedding but every single special moment and detail flawlessly. Every client is blown away by their work, and if your looking to have an amazing photo experience, then JAG is who you should go with. As a client, renewing my ten-year anniversary vows, I wanted a photographer that could capture the years and moments that it took myself and my husband to get to this point. To be very honest, I was pretty freaked about having my photos taken; I am a behind the scenes gal! However, both Jacklyn and Chris not only made us 100% relax, but I barely knew they were taking photos, and when all was said and done and the showed us the end product both my husband and I cried for days because it was more beautiful then we could have ever imagined. They captured who we were as a couple, and as individuals and every moment, moments I did not even think about will forever be in an amazing photograph. Jaclyn Watson Events

Hey! My name is Bill. I’ve been practicing photography since 2016, where I started in automotive (if you can guess what I named my business after, bonus points). My whole process is structured mainly to eliminate the stress of worrying about your timeline on your special day. It starts with a consultation, and ends with a call a month before to solidify your schedule. My style is a blend of documentary and artistic, meaning the candid photos are what really matter, but the posed photos are what might print and frame. Regardless, your day is my focus (pun intended). If you think we’d vibe, let’s chat and make your special day great!

I am so happy you are here! You are either engaged, pregnant, you just became parents, or you simply love pretty, romantic, dreamy pictures like I do. I'm Jessie, originally from The Netherlands. Friends and family describe me as the most romantic dreamer they know. I love the sparkling joy of engaged couples, the romantic vibe during a wedding, the glow of expectant mothers, and the pure love between new parents and their children.

From the moment I first saw Jessie's work, I knew I wanted her to be our wedding photographer. And I every second of my experience with Jessie since then was just amazing! Jessie was among the very first vendors I booked, so I had a lot of questions and a lot of items to still plan/work through. Jessie was so unbelievably patient and helpful in talking everything through with me, and I felt so confident that she prioritized our best interest with everything she recommended! Jessie is unbelievably knowledgeable about her art and does a beautiful, beautiful job capturing elegance and romance in all of her photos. I particularly love how Jessie just "sees" when/where to get perfect lighting, and her talent is obvious in any photo you see of her's. We did our engagement shoot with Jessie in NYC on the water at sunrise (which Jessie drove down early for!) and it was my husband's and my first time in front of the camera for a professional shoot like that. Both my husband and I are very uncomfortable in front of the camera and were worried about whether we would need to learn/practice how to pose for photos before the engagement shoot and wedding. We felt so comfortable with Jessie from the very start, and on top of that, Jessie was very detailed-oriented in walking us through every movement and pose during the shoot itself. We were amazed at how natural we looked in every photo! Jessie is also super well-organized and intentional about everything, which is a must-have on your wedding day! I had put so much though into all of the photos I was going to want from my wedding, and on the day of, it was an absolute out-of-body experience. Jessie struck the perfect balance of helping direct us/everyone and making sure we got everything we needed, but was also very patient and accommodating with us and all of our people throughout the entire day. I am struggling to find the words to articulate just how much I LOVED having Jessie as our wedding photographer, and am clearly making up for that with a lengthy review, but the last thing I'll say is this: Jessie was so incredible to have on our vendor team from the very first day to the last, but at the end of the day, what matters most is how you like your photos. Jessie sent us a sneak peek of our wedding photos 2 days after our wedding while my husband and I were on our honeymoon, and not only did I burst into tears at how beautiful they all were, but I also could not stop looking at them. We ultimately decided that I was going to leave my phone in the hotel room when we went out because I couldn't stop myself from looking at the photos over and over and over again. I am only able to upload 10 photos with my review, and I had a difficult time picking just 10 to showcase just how amazed we were/are with them! We picked a handful of the photos we particularly love because Jessie did such an incredible job of capturing the authenticity of our emotions and energy that you can feel it through the photo. I cannot wait until the day we can use Jessie again when we are ready for a newborn photoshoot! Thank you, Jessie and team, SOOO much for everything!

My ultimate goal is to capture your memories as timelessly, artistically, and organically as possible. Both intentional and creative, I shoot a combination of digital and film. I will document your wedding as it naturally unfolds, seamlessly incorporating tailored portraiture, candid storytelling, and elevated editorial detail. The result is a collection of timeless images; candid yet composed moments, artfully blended classic photographs with joyful spontaneity. I serve my clients with not only stunning images, but with impeccable service. I work with couples in NYC, New England and worldwide.

Josephine's amazing photography skills, artistic vision, responsiveness, thoughtfulness, and warmth made her the ideal and perfect person to capture our engagement photos and wedding day! We are so fortunate and will forever look fondly back on our decision to have her alongside us on the most important day of our lives and we know our wedding was even more special because Josephine was with us. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, La Luna Photography!
