  • Serves Durham, CT

I'm a Massachusetts-based wedding photographer. My pronouns are She/Her. I'm just trying to make people feel comfortable in front of a camera. I use a mix of poses and prompts to create natural movement and emotion.

Kelsey was an amazing photographer. She went above and beyond on our wedding day. She was the most organized photographer I’ve ever seen, not missing a single shot that we wanted. She was so prepared and made it so I didn’t have to worry at all about the photos. She also got us our first look within days and our entire album within a month. we were so happy with how the photos came out, everyone compliments them and they are just so stunning. Such a wonderful job that my sister used her for her wedding two years later.

Randall Garnick Photography

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Durham, CT

It's been 12 years running this small business as a Boston wedding photographer, a New England wedding photographer, working all around the greater Boston area and traveling to destination weddings as well. It's been a crazy ride so far and I can honestly say I still love what I do! I am so grateful that 250+ wedding couples have trusted me to be a part of their weddings, to document one of the milestone days in their lives and to create beautiful heirloom albums and artwork they can enjoy for a lifetime. Ultimately that's what it's all about, serving my clients and creating an amazing experience.

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!

Omg where do I even begin??! Nicole is a master of her craft. I reached out in December 2022 for my May 5, 2024 wedding and I knew after our first phone call that she was the one I wanted designing my flowers and centerpieces. We instantly clicked and she knew exactly what I was envisioning and how to get us there. All throughout the process she kept me involved and was constantly making sure it’s what I wanted. Even though I knew what colors she was going with I was still left absolutely speechless when my bouquets were delivered to my hotel room the morning of. And when I walked into the venue and saw the centerpieces I was in awe. Like she blew it out of the water. Nicole is one of the most kind hearted, beautiful people I’ve met throughout my whole wedding planning process and even in my life and I’m beyond grateful for her. Thank you Nicole for making our wedding so special and memorable!!

We worked with Kim for both our engagement party and wedding ceremony in 2023. She was very responsive and flexible, and really listened to what we wanted (which was more about what we DIDN'T want).

He did a great job of running around to get B roll and captured all of our special moments. He did a great job acting as a fly on the wall when needed and kept us relaxed and in the moment. The final videos (short and documentary) were stunning. They were edited beautifully and easily accessed and shareable. We had a few edits we wanted to make which was absolutely no problem. We even got our videos back before our photos! I also loved that we have access to all of our raw files so we can look back on every moment and hear the true audio. We would definitely work with Flower Oak again in the future!

We don't try to be on-trend, rather we are intuitive with the flower and our clients and let the flower speak to us.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Naomi and her team at Nectar & Vessel was truly an incredible experience. Aside from the marriage itself and celebrating with our loved ones, the floral design was the part of wedding-planning I was most excited about, so finding the right team to make it all happen was really important to me. From our first meeting, it was obvious how warm, talented, creative, professional, and enthusiastic Naomi is - she is so passionate and knowledgeable about what she does, and it really shows in her work. Naomi and her team went above and beyond to distill all of my ideas and wishes into a final cohesive vision that was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! Everything Naomi and her team created was stunningly executed - from the bouquets, boutonnieres, and the gorgeous chuppah at our ceremony, to the lush arrangements, centerpieces, and hanging greenery at the cocktail hour and reception, to the magical floral clouds that hung over our dance floor. Many guests told me that these were the most beautiful floral designs that they had seen at any wedding they’ve ever been to - I’m still receiving compliments about them months later. We especially appreciated Naomi’s attention to detail (she and her team made little bouquets for guests to take home at the end of the evening that everyone loved), and how conscientious she is about sustainability (she uses reusable vessels for everything and doesn’t use disposable foam products - something that can be hard to come by in the floral industry). Writing this review was challenging because it’s so difficult to find the words to properly convey how beautiful everything was and how grateful we are for Naomi and her team’s work! We wholeheartedly recommend Naomi and her team at Nectar & Vessel to anyone looking for floral design for their wedding or event, and we are so thankful to have had them by our sides on our special day.

I'm in love with human emotions, either it's laughing till it hurts or tears of happiness. When your man hugs you so strong, that you can't breathe or when your dad is crying (for the first time in his life!) listening to your vows at the altar. I do believe, that these un-staged moments are more meaningful than classy portraits on a sunset (but no worries, you'll plenty of both!) If you feel like we are on the same page - let's talk! Write me a few words about who you are, tell me your story and let's create something beautiful together!

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Dasha! From our very first email exchange, we could feel her amazing energy—she was so friendly, easy to talk to, and incredibly professional. When we learned that she had recently shot a wedding at our venue and hotel, we knew we were in great hands. Neither of us take a lot of pictures (and usually don’t take them well!), so we were nervous about the process. But Dasha immediately put us at ease. She met with us in our neighborhood a couple of months before the wedding, and her warmth, confidence, and expertise reassured us every step of the way. On the big day, she was incredibly kind, patient, and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. She brought out the best in us, and the results speak for themselves—the photos are absolutely unreal! We couldn’t be happier and couldn’t recommend Dasha more highly.

Doorbell Barbers did an incredible job on haircuts for both my husband and me, as well as our groomsmen. Our hair has never looked better! Christian was not only an amazing barber but also truly kind and understanding of our time constraints, even accommodating some last-minute changes without any hassle. His pricing was more than fair for the quality of work and level of professionalism. The whiskey and cigar treatment made our groomsmen happier then ever, and the mini-facials were something that truly helped calm the nerves on the big day! What really stood out was how compassionate and flexible Christian was when unexpected, and incredibly tragic, circumstances forced us to postpone our wedding for a year. He handled everything with such grace and made the rescheduling process stress-free during a very challenging time. We couldn’t have asked for better service or a more thoughtful experience. Thank you, Doorbell Barbers and Christian, for making our big day look and feel amazing. Highly recommend!

My name is George. I’m a wedding, event, and portrait photographer based in Connecticut. I began my photography journey at the age of 17. In 2009, I attended the Fashion Institute of Technology in Manhattan, NY, where I completed the Fashion Photography program. As an artist, my goal is to create natural images that are full of life and express beauty. I approach each client’s needs with care and creativity—capturing emotions, unique details, and the essence of your story. Professional photographer since 2009 and have photographed over 200 weddings.

George was very kind and communicative from the start. He was very flexible in our desire to move to a second location during cocktail hour and made the most of our short time there. He focused on capturing all of the photos we asked for along with really amazing candid shots of guests. He delivered a large amount of photos in short time frame. We can't recommend him enough.

Bryan Sargent is an award-winning wedding and engagement photographer from New York City. To Bryan, nothing compares to the privilege and fun of capturing the cherished memories of a couple on their wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
Bryan was amazing from start to finish. It was great to 'warm up' and get to know each other during the engagement photos which made us all the more comfortable on our wedding day. To say we are obsessed with the photos is an understatement. Our guests are also in awe as we continue to share them. Bryan's style captured our vision perfectly. From the NYC streets outside our apartment to Central Park and through the subway to our venue. We couldn't be more pleased and highly recommend Bryan!
