Hi friends! I'm a New England wedding and destination photographer based out of Connecticut. My faith is the foundation of everything apart of me. My family, friends, and my business. I wouldn’t be where I am today without God, and I pray that my clients can see the goodness of the Lord through every stage of working with me. I love hiking and finding a brewery afterward to grab a cider, strolling through a garden shop or bookstore, or catching a sunset down at the beach and having a picnic. I'm a Jesus- follower, wife to my best friend Justin, a mom to my son Jaxson, and dog mama to my girl Minnie.

Love Knot Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Essex, CT

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

When I first saw the final wedding video, my jaw literally dropped. It felt like a professional movie but about our lives. Every single angle was thought out so beautifully, but nothing felt fake. The photos show us laughing, hugging, and even some moments I totally forgot had happened. I didn’t even notice them half the time, they worked so smoothly in the background. My mom said it was the first time she actually enjoyed being in wedding photos because it felt so easy. That means a lot because she usually hates the camera. The lighting is so soft and romantic, and the colors are gorgeous. My bridesmaids keep saying the photos look like Pinterest but even better because it’s real life. I’ll treasure every bit of it forever.

Sarah made such an impact on me from the very first phone call. She was incredibly personable, helpful, and immediately grasped the vision I had for our wedding. We worked together seamlessly from our engagement shoot, to our rehearsal, and then of course, the wedding itself. Every single photo turned out better than I ever imagined. Their photography style is absolutely stunning—elegant, timeless, and perfectly tailored to capture exactly what you want. They’re not only skilled but also intuitive, knowing just how to bring your vision to life. As a Type A bride with tons of questions, detailed vision boards, and a lot of ideas, I was a little anxious about making sure everything went smoothly. But Sarah was with me every step of the way, always available to make sure we were aligned and on the same page. Choosing to work with CityLux Studios was one of the best decisions I made for our wedding. They truly made the entire weekend feel special, and the photos are nothing short of breathtaking.

Hi, I'm Danny! My passion is to capture couples & their love story in a timeless way. I like to describe my style as a fusion between story-telling & editorial. I lean into true-to-life colors with a warm ambience and posing that's timeless but also interwoven with an editorial flare that's unique, artistic, and stylish. I also love incorporating story-telling stills that involve movement rather than a bunch of photos that feel "stiff" or overly posed. Story-telling moments bring wedding galleries life! I’d love the opportunity to connect with you, and hear more about your wedding vision!!

We had such a wonderful experience working with Danny for our wedding! He was timely, professional, responsive and overall a pleasant person to work with. On our big day he was punctual and prepared, he gave great guidance on posing and lighting. We’re not the most camera-savvy couple, but he helped us look and feel our best. He found the perfect spots to shoot, resulting in some truly magical moments. We just received our sneak peak photos and they are stunning, couldn’t be happier! They capture the emotion and beauty of the day perfectly. Our guests had nothing but nice things to say and frequently commented about how great he was! Highly recommend.

King is seriously a dream to work with! From the first time we talked, we just knew they were the right choice. He’s so down-to-earth and made us feel totally at ease, which was huge because neither of us are super comfortable in front of a camera. He helped us with posing when we needed it (thank you for making us look like we knew what we were doing!), but also just let us be ourselves, which resulted in the most natural, beautiful photos. He totally captured the vibe of our day, especially the reception. The energy, the laughter, the dancing—everything was perfectly documented. We couldn’t have asked for better photos that really tell the story of our celebration. We’re beyond happy with how everything turned out!

  • Starts at $5,200
  • Serves Essex, CT

A photographer with 10 years of experience specializing in love stories, portraiture, and immortalizing a moment filled to the brim with feeling. I’m French, which means I have aways been attracted to beauty, art, and romance & love to have a good time; my photography embodies this. When I am not behind the camera I enjoy eating good food and drinking wine (again, I’m French), going on roadtrips with my wonderful boyfriend, Max, and cuddling up with a good book - my favorite is The Pillars of the Earth - and my cutie pie cat, Jack.

Coco posed as a photographer who was taking photos in the gallery my art is in. When I showed up to the gallery she was taking photos of the gallery owner. In another life she must be an actor because I had no idea she was there for my engagement which made the surprise even better. Once the secret was out we walked from the gallery to the hotel and got photos on the street. She was open to any and all suggestions and easily let us pivot from outdoor photos to inside because of how cold we were. Also, the photos were amazing. She took photos during our surprise brunch as well and did a great job at capturing the candid moments and staying hidden so that we didn’t feel like our brunch was a photoshoot. She’s also just incredibly kind and was a great addition to the day. Plus, our photo turn around time was extremely fast. 10/10. Thank you Coco!

I’m Julia, the photographer behind J. Graham Photo! What started as a creative outlet quickly became the career I can’t imagine living without. I specialize in capturing weddings, couples, and all the big + small moments that make your story yours. My approach is relaxed, fun, and real — no stiff poses, just natural direction to help you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Based in Connecticut but always down to travel!

Julia is one of the best photographers. She puts hard work into every shoot making sure you’re comfortable and makes you laugh. The photos come out flawless every single time, never disappoints! Booking with her is super easy and she communicates really well.

Our standard bearer of all wedding themed films, is the 1991 remake of Father of the Bride, starring Steve Martin and Martin Short. It’s an homage to George’s meltdown in the grocery store over the hot dog to bun ratio in packaging. It’s a classic, watch it. We could give you some song and dance about how it’s also symbolic in a belief that quality imagery is an important part of your wedding, but really and truly, the movie’s just that good.

Communication with the Big Shot Bun Company was excellent! They were fast to respond and very detailed in their correspondence. The quality of their work and value was exceptional - they were creative, professional, and on time. The photographer was very punctual, prepared, efficient and friendly. We were so pleased with all the photos, her caring demeanor, and how personable she was. She did an excellent job getting many great shots both inside the venue and outside. Absolutely highly recommend this company, we are so impressed!
