Eliza was the florist for our Jewish/Hindu wedding in late October in the Berkshires, and we cannot say enough wonderful things. She helped our vision truly come to life, but also gave guidance when needed which I appreciated. She created a custom mandap/chuppah and incorporated some personal family heirlooms which made it so special. Eliza is a true professional and also a lovely person to work with.

  • Photographer

  • Starts at $5,200
  • Serves Hamden, 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 was an absolute dream to shoot our engagement photos with! Before our shoot, she really got to know our story, our style preferences, & then created the perfect shoot that really encapsulates who we are as a couple. She made us feel so comfortable while shooting & came with so many fun ideas that really helped us show up as ourselves. She also made sure to include everything that is most precious to us—our home, our doggo, & the city we fell in love in! We will cherish these photos forever.

Vibrant was fantastic for our March wedding. They brought amazing energy and class to our event, and guests are still raving about them a month later. The dance floor was packed for the entire evening. Lauren and Marlon are a dynamite lead-singing duo, and the instrumentalists are each incredibly talented. Justin was very responsive and easy to connect with leading up to the day, and accommodated all of our requests and needs with ease. They were also very helpful with recommendations based on extensive experience, and even allowed the bride's sister to play their keyboard for the ceremony, which was an over-and-above request they did not have to agree to. Overall can't recommend this group enough!

Hello! I'm Brenden, and my passion for photography began with a film camera from my Aunt in Japan. I spent nearly a decade in fashion photography, capturing style and elegance before transitioning to weddings. This vibrant field allows me to meet amazing people and capture their unique stories. Featured in magazines and awarded in Hong Kong, I continuously strive to enhance my skills. As a father of six, I cherish photography's power to connect us with our past. At Luminist Photography, I'm dedicated to capturing your love story with creativity and care.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing the right wedding photographer is a big decision. You want someone who can not only capture the stunning details and magical moments, but also someone who you feel comfortable with and who understands your vision. We hit the jackpot with Brenden! We first had the pleasure of working with Brenden at our engagement shoot, and we knew right away that he was something special. He's not just a talented photographer with an eye for light and composition; he's also a genuinely warm and kind person who puts you at ease instantly. He took the time to get to know us as a couple, understand what we were hoping for in our wedding photos, and offered suggestions we hadn't even considered. On the wedding day, Brenden was a calming presence amidst the whirlwind of emotions. He expertly navigated the chaos, capturing everything from the moments of beautiful bride getting ready (which I of course didn't get to see) to the raucous dance floor without ever being intrusive. He even managed to wrangle our (sometimes camera-shy) family and friends into some truly heartwarming shots. But the real magic happened when we saw the final photos. Brenden's talent is undeniable. He somehow managed to capture the raw emotion, the unadulterated joy, and the tiny, precious details that made our wedding day so perfect. We laughed, we cried, and we relived every moment all over again through his lens. Brenden isn't just a photographer; he's a storyteller. He tells the story of your love, your commitment, and the sheer joy of celebrating with the people you love most. He's the kind of photographer who becomes part of the celebration, someone you'll remember fondly long after the cake is eaten and the dancing shoes are hung up. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who will not only deliver stunning photos but also create an unforgettable experience, look no further than Brenden. He's more than just a vendor; he's an investment in memories that will last a lifetime.

I cannot express enough how grateful we are to have found Chris to capture our special day. However, it goes beyond just that singular day. We had first met with Chris in person for a meet and greet, which I would have never thought to play such an integral role in the process. He demonstrated so much passion for the trade and was already so invested in making sure he was exactly the photographer we were looking for so we could truly get the most out of our day. He also took the time to visit the venue after our meeting to get an idea of what he'd be working with. Chris went above and beyond, every step of the way. He even made it a point to come during the rehearsal as well to be even further prepared. Everything flowed organically with his direction which took away so much stress from the day. Professionalism aside, Chris is just a good dude all around. We're so happy to come away from this experience with not only an amazing portfolio of memories, but a passionate and charismatic friend.

Mike was a phenomenal DJ! He made our wedding reception even better. We had many zoom calls and emails and he asked us so many different types of questions. Little did we know he was creating our story and he shared it with everyone at our wedding. While he was telling our story, it was as if Tony or I were telling it. It made everyone at the wedding feel like they were a part of it. As we were listening to our story, I could hear myself in what Mike was saying. It just proves that he truly listened to what Tony and I said when we met with him. His music playlist was incredible! Everyone was up and dancing. He even played songs that were important to my nephews and I got to watch them dance with their mom. I can't tell you how many people have reached out to tell me how great our DJ was!

Words cannot adequately describe how amazing, flawless, and special our experience was. From day one, Stephanie's professionalism, eye for detail, true love for photography, and desire to capture the essence of our love story was very clear. Although we are a bit further from Stephanie (eastern MA residents), she committed to coming to southern CT to meet us for our engagement shoot and then to central MA for our wedding. When we were surprised by a pop up thunderstorm right before our ceremony on the big day, Stephanie acted not just as our photographer but as a friend and helped us navigate the nerves and emotions of the change from outdoor to indoor ceremony. Her photos are exactly what we were looking for. When we view them, we are transported right back to that day, and every emotion, every hug, every sentimental moment is there for us to cherish. We HIGHLY recommend Stephanie and her beautiful photography and plan to work with her for many more years to come.

From flexibility in setup with a last minute change in ceremony space to custom requests they went above and beyond to make our event unforgettable! We absolutely loved working with them – professional, fun, and super talented. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ! We’ll definitely be using them again for future events and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch entertainment. Thank you for making our night so special!

Mike and Traci were super responsive and on top of everything! From ceremony music to reception and then the dancing, they made everything so easy! And the music! Omg; everyone was dancing all night! They were great with learning songs we requested and DJing songs we needed and at the same time were just super at getting folks onto the dance floor.

Hey everybody & welcome to Tooovisual Media. My name is Tony Baldelli & I'm a self taught Photographer & Videographer based in New Jersey. Since getting into the wedding industry years ago, my goal has stayed the same. To help couples create lifelong memories, and make their wedding as memorable as can be!

Tony is honestly one of the best in the game! I was definitely picky on who chose for a photographer and the minute I talked to Tony I knew I had found my photographer! He listened to me about what I wanted, was easy going to not stress us out on our big day & very organized. Even now all my guest still talk about how amazing Tony was. Not only did he get amazing photos but blended right in with our group of friends and family. Tony definitely has clients for life in myself and my husband! Could not recommend more!
