I would absolutely recommend Brian to anyone looking for a wedding photographer, you will not be disappointed!

When I first started wedding photography, I didn’t realize how quickly I would fall in love! Through my clients I have had the pleasure of watching many love stories come to fruition, capturing their most special day. Wedding photography is not just a job, it’s a true passion that I do because I love it. The long wedding days, the planning - I cherish every moment of it!

Ephe was the best photographer ever. I was one of the last people in my friend group to get married and I’ve seen some photography disasters happen the day of. Ephe had none of that and all of my friends loved her and her work ethic. She is very punctual and organized. She understood the vibe that I was going for and she had my sneak peeks and all of my wedding pictures edited super quick! I wish I lived closer to Ephe so I could hire her for all of my photography needs.

Hey hey 👋, I’m LaDonna. Wedding photographer & videographer with a passion for celebrating the love stories of couples from all walks of life. Growing up in the suburbs of Boston and attending undergrad in Connecticut, I’m a true New England gal. Winter holds a special place in my heart, as I embrace the beauty and charm of every location I photograph.

That would honestly make my heart smile! 😊 My mission: create timeless, heirloom-quality artwork that reflects the unique connection & individuality of each couple I have the honor to serve.

Awarded Best of Zola
I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Ben and Kim from Kindred Photography for our wedding, and I can't recommend them enough! Ben was not only professional and talented, but he also brought an artist's eye to every shot. Even though we had a plan for where to take pictures at our venue, Ben would stop us and say, "Hey, what do you think about this?" His picture choices ended up being our favorites – they truly captured the essence of our day. Kim was so sweet and thoughtful, even getting me some of my pictures early so I could use them for Christmas gifts.

We're thrilled with our photos and experience We cannot say enough about how beautiful our photos are! We are beyond thrilled with how they turned out and how they feel like we felt on our wedding day. I will say, though, that we and our families all agreed that even if the photos didn’t turn out as we hoped, we would still be happy because of how great they were to work with. They made even the more camera-shy among us feel comfortable, never distracted from the important parts of our day, and were flexible and lovely to be around. We couldn't be happier with the final results and wholeheartedly recommend them for anyone getting married in the area.

Hi! I'm Chrissy. I've been lucky enough to photograph weddings and meet tons of awesome couples since 2014. I'm based in Boston, MA but I'm always more than happy to travel anywhere your adventure takes you. My work has brought me as far as Tokyo and I'm so ready to explore more new places! In my down time I love to surf, paint, go to concerts, and watch horror movies. I'm full of useless astrology facts and I always have extra snacks with me.

Chrissy is an absolutely amazing photographer. I’ve followed her work for years and knew as soon as we got engaged that Chrissy would be our photographer. During the process I stressed to Chrissy I just didn’t want the same traditional boring poses/portraits for either our engagement photos or wedding photos and she delivered! Granted, there were some exceptions for family photos of course, but overall exactly what we wanted. Chrissy made us feel extremely comfortable and I trusted her judgement on everything. She is easy to work with and really goes above and beyond to make sure that your day goes smoothly. Thank you so much for everything! You really helped capture the love and happiness on our wedding day!

We enjoyed spending most of our wedding day with her, she is lovely and made taking lots of photos so fun. She was also very experienced in creating a photography timeline and helped prioritize what was important to us on our wedding day. I highly recommend Rachel for all your photography needs!

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,750
  • Serves Essex, CT

I shot my first wedding in 2004, and from that moment on, I was hooked! It's an honor to witness and capture such an important moment in the lives of my couples. Before specializing in weddings, I focused on fine art and night photography. I earned a BFA degree in studio art from the University of Notre Dame (Go Irish!), and a MFA degree in imaging arts/photography from Rochester Institute of Technology. I taught black and white, digital, alternative process and studio photography at the high school, university and adult education levels. I love both the planned events and the unintentional, quiet moments that make a wedding unique!

Kristin is a great photographer but it's her personal touches that stand out the most with me. She brings little kits for sewing to make sure that any mishaps will never ruin anyones day. Her professionalism is unwaivering and she is always smiling and willing to help; even if it doesn't have to do with photography! You will never be disappointed in choosing Kristin for any of your events!

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’m a photographer for people who don’t resonate with traditional wedding photography. For those who want their weddings to be told like a story that features every bear hug, belly laugh, stolen glance, spilled drink, booty shake, and happy tear. For those who prioritize genuine and unscripted moments over trends and shot lists. For those who don’t want to feel like they’re wasting their day posing for the camera. For those who are inspired by the past and hopeful for the future. For those looking to create a little bit of future nostalgia.

Caroline is such a talented photographer and I have been so fortunate to get to know her over last few years. Her work gives such an intimate glimpse into couples and families that she photographs and her edits feel nostalgic, warm and natural! On top of that she has a heart of gold, so honestly, you cannot go wrong. Book her!

We specialize in wedding photography and family portraits. We are extra focused on our clients and building strong relationships with each of them. We ask lots of questions to make sure we are a good fit for each other and because we care to know you as a person and all of the things that make you you!

Marissa was amazing from our first FaceTime consultation before our engagement shoot. After seeing her beautiful work first hand, we knew we would have to have her for our wedding day. She was easy to communicate with through the entire process and seemed genuinely excited to be working with us. She responded promptly to any text we sent and made sure she captured everything we wanted. For our wedding day, we hired a second shooter (Sam) who was just as great. Both girls arrived early to help take pictures getting ready. They were fun and easygoing, and never made us feel awkward with posed pictures. They made sure to get every shot we requested. And get this - Marissa pulled me aside DURING the reception and already had incredible sneak peeks for me to see! Her turn-around time was faster than we could have ever imagined and everyone can't stop talking about how breathtaking our light and airy photos came out! Will definitely be using Marissa/Wonderland for all of our important life events, and recommending her to everyone we know!

I want to do cool things, with good people. Create connections. Become fast friends. Share my love for the outdoors. Find incredible light. Laugh our asses off. Have a conversation about whatever. Not talk about politics. Find out how you met. Swear a little bit. Get lost for a while. Talk about music. Throw some high fives. Arm wrestle. Probably bring up my cats. Ask you why you don't have cats. Make you believe that bigfoot is real. Bring some thunder. Ride the lightning. Take some photos. Looking forward to all of that.

My husband and I had a wonderful time working with Joe, the whole process was very easy from start to finish! It was really important to me that we were able to find a photographer that my partner felt comfortable with, and Joe was a perfect fit. He has a casual approach, which makes you feel very at ease and natural. Seeing the photos afterward was breathtaking, I can't believe he managed to make us look so good and feel so relaxed at the same time! The images are timeless and we will love them for years to come! 10/10 would recommend!

I feel so lucky that my sister found Atlas & Stone as her photographers years ago and that I was able to book them for my big day as well! If you want to remember your wedding day and have the best pictures to look back on then you NEED to book Atlas & Stone! Jess is super responsive in helping book everything and Kevin was so incredible to work with on site! We had to reschedule our engagement shoot 3 times because of rain. Kevin had driven all the way to the location the first time and thankfully knew a rainy day was not what we were looking for and rescheduled, clearly putting our best interests first. Not only did our engagement pictures come out so beautifully, but the wedding photos he took made our jaws drop. Kevin made sure he captured every photo I was looking for from family portraits, to my inspiration couple pictures, and the big family photos. Kevin also surprised me with Polaroids at the end of the night of some of the best moments and a digital version of them the next day that I immediately had to post on Instagram because they were so good. I received a sneak preview of my wedding photos less than a week after the wedding day! I was surprised and thrilled with the quick turnaround of over 50 photos to look at while we were on our honeymoon. They captured the details, the smiles, and all the special moments of our big day. I am absolutely so thrilled with how everything came out. I cannot wait to put together a whole album of these photos and blow up the big moments into canvases for us and our family. They have great packages and are worth every single penny. I promise you will be in AMAZING hands if you book Atlas & Stone.

Hey there!! We're Sarah & Ben a mother-son photography team traveling throughout New England and the U.S., capturing stunning weddings, elopements, & engagements along the way. We’re lucky enough to witness countless beautiful moments that leave us in awe. From the quiet glances to the laughter-filled celebrations, we aim to capture it all with a sense of ease that reflects the genuine connections between you and your loved ones.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to start? During the first phone call with Sarah, even after we told her we were interviewing multiple photographers, she offered us pointers and advice to consider when choosing our photographer, not her as the photographer, but OUR photographer. From the beginning she wanted to ensure that we had the best fit for us. She went above and beyond by coming to our venues prior to the wedding to "get the feel" of what she would need to capture the perfect moments. On the day of the wedding (when it was pure chaos) she adapted quickly, efficiently and went with the flow. Sarah and Ben are incredibly kind, thoughtful, and have a wonderful sense of humor. All of the photos they took are amazing and very unique. The emotion captured by each photo brought us to laughter or tears, but both in a good way! We could not have picked a better photographer, and we cannot thank them enough for all they did!

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!!!!

Hi there! I’m David K, a passionate photographer specializing in couples and wedding photography. Since 2016, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to capture love stories and the unique moments that make each relationship special.

David was the best wedding photographer we could have asked for. His communication style was professional, responsive, and a true pleasure to work with from start to finish. The quality of his work was simply stunning - the photos he captured of our special day were wonderful and left us speechless. He paid attention to every detail, going above and beyond our expectations to ensure we had the most beautiful memories of our wedding. We couldn't have asked for better photographer and would recommend Keptyaphotography to everyone looking to have an incredible wedding experience.

After inheriting his father’s gift of photography since he was 4, it was only right that Stephan picked up the lens and carry on his legacy. For over 6 professional years, he has stood behind his medium and captured some of life’s most intimate moments.

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!
