Emily's Catering was an extraordinary part of our wedding day at South Farms in Morris, CT. Rick and his team handled everything wonderfully; They were organized, prompt, responsive, enthusiastic, creative, and VERY well-priced. Because we decided not to hire a planner, it was crucial that we retain vendors who could operate self-sufficiently, and Emily's truly went above and beyond in every respect. They even accommodated serving my husband's home-brew, including making wood signs for us as a surprise. My husband and I still talk about how much we loved and appreciated them, and we enthusiastically recommend them to anyone seeking the perfect caterer for their wedding.

Wedding advice: hire Cover Story Entertainment! We worked with CSE for our July wedding. We went with the ceremony package, 6-piece band as well as their uplighting and photo booth services. Our experience with CSE from start to finish was 10/10. Chris and Elena are incredibly organized, communicative, and responsive. They always answered all of our questions (and I asked many!) Alec, Alex, Savannah, and the rest of the band members rocked it all night. One of the first things guests commented on about our wedding was how amazing the band was. One of our guests commented that they wish they could cancel their DJ and fly CSE to their wedding in Portugal because they loved them so much. Extremely talented musicians for an awesome price, which make a huge difference when wedding planning. When we reflect on our wedding day, Cover Story is a huge part of what made it such a memorable night. -MK AJ Dunne

Hello, I'm Tonya. I am a documentary wedding, boudoir & lifestyle photographer with an editorial approach based in Fairfield County, Connecticut. At the heart of my work, you will find authentic connection & composition, some of the most important things to me as an artist. I build on that with honest storytelling with a more editorial approach. My inspiration lies in authentic human connection & emotions, pockets of light, vintage film, movement, honest interactions, vibrant colors found in nature, fog after a rainfall. Finding beauty in the most ordinary things.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tonya's work is unbelievable. The fog that rolled in for our ceremony made it hard to see just a few feet in front of us, but her pictures came out stunning. She's a great communicator, detail-oriented and really made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She sent us a day-of timeline and helped plan out what photos we would like in advance. We got back a preview album sent to us like 2 days after our wedding! We also did an engagement shoot with her before our wedding, which really made us excited for our big day.

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 was amazing!! We had a wonderful experience with our engagement shoot as well as our wedding!! We love love loved our engagement photos as well as our sneak peak for wedding photos! She went out of her way to get us photos we wanted for our engagement shoot! I am absolutely thrilled with our experience!

I HIGHLY recommend our videographer Justin at Villa films. Funny story was, we actually won a photo booth with him. That’s how we came across him and saw he also offered other services. We wanted to use him for one of his other services because we were so thankful for winning the photo booth. He just started in the wedding industry not too long ago, but he is an absolute dream to work with !! Even with eveything changing with COVID he has stayed consistent. Having our zoom meetings with him actually got me excited for our wedding again that we had in January. I was always able to reach him if I had any questions. My favorite thing was he worked with us and our budget. He would listen to everything that was impotent to us and what we wanted in the video. If your looking for videographers I would definitely talk to Justin. He is truly amazing at what he does!

We had a little more trouble with my hair in the back, it fell flat a little earlier than I would have hoped, but could've been accelerated because of the weather (face framing lasted all night and that's what really matters).

Hi, Thanks for reading! Here's my photography short story: 2017, after 13 years of teaching, I said goodbye to the classroom and pursued Olympic weightlifting photography- my company was Everyday Lifters. Shortly after, I launched my wedding business. The Long Version: Weightlifting has taken me to places like Turkmenistan, Germany, & across the country! The weightlifters started getting married, and along the way, I received training to advocate for diverse bodies as a photographer. During this time of transition, I started taking documenting courses through the International Center of Photography and work on documenting local stories.

Choosing a photographer is always hard, it is even more nerve racking when choosing your wedding photographer. That wasn’t the case when we met and connected with Viviana. Viviana from the start was able to put us at ease and was incredibly welcoming. She was very open and helpful as we navigated the planning process. During the day of our wedding we felt like we were in safe and good hands. We didn’t feel like we had to act a certain way or pose in an inauthentic manner. We felt at ease and like our true selves throughout. Viviana’s approach and warmth helped us be our true selves and embrace the day to its fullest. When we received the photos we were thrilled about how they all came out. We loved that each picture captured a special moment on our special day. Whether that was at our first look, ceremony, or when we hit the dance floor. We included pictures to our friends along with our thank you notes. It was an absolute pleasure to partner with Viviana on our wedding day photography. We highly recommend her and her work for your wedding!

I'm glad we did an engagement shoot to get to know her a little before the wedding day and help ease the photography anxiety. We got a handful of sneak peek shots a few weeks after the wedding, which was exciting, followed by the full set of photos a few weeks after that. The photos are beautiful and capture our day perfectly. I don't even remember seeing her at the ceremony I was so focused on everything else, but she captured it and all our emotions beautifully.

They captured our wedding at the Plaza Hotel so beautifully that some of our photos were even featured in publications like Carats & Cake. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and they provided so many stunning photos that choosing the ones for our album was a challenge—in the best way possible! The quality of their work truly exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t be happier with how they preserved such special memories for us. Highly recommend!
