  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Serves Hamden, CT

My name is Taylor — I’m a husband, father, teacher, ocean lover, and videographer / editor based out of CT and Cape Cod. I’ve been passionate about photography for as long as I can remember, and deep down I’ve always felt that capturing moments was in some way my calling. A few years ago I began to realize that photographs — even the most compelling ones — are not able to tell an entire story. They provide a powerful glimpse, frozen in time, but even the best photographs are unable to preserve memories and emotions the way that films can.

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't say enough great things about Taylor! I knew from our initial call that I wanted him on our vendor team and I couldn't be happier with my decision! His films capture the elegant and timeless vibes I was hoping for and he was an absolute joy to plan and work with. Taylor and my photographer blended seamlessly and teamed up on the big day to work their magic. Our social media reel is my favorite thing to watch now and we're so excited to see the final product! Taylor is truly gifted and I would highly recommend him to any bride!

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. She has a passion for sustainability and zero waste which was important to me when picking a florist. I highly recommend Boom & Bloom!!

We highly recommend Artsinfotos Photography for wedding photography. We got married in Bar Harbor Maine and also took photos in Acadia NP.

Christophe was able to beautifully photograph all the joy, laughter, tears, and love without us even needing a videographer.

With his experience and talent behind the lens, we will treasure these images forever. We can't say enough good things about Christophe!

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Keleigh Michelle Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our 4/27/24 wedding. I remember feeling so overwhelmed with all of the options for photographers. I had no idea what our style was, or what we should look for or prioritize in a photographer. After filling out a million inquiries, Keleigh’s responsiveness and thorough replies was what initially made her stand out to me. She asked the right questions and helped me land on a package that made the most sense for our wedding without pressuring me or upselling me on anything. We were also drawn to her gorgeous gallery- her pictures exude beauty, sophistication, and pure emotion. Keleigh’s professionalism and talent are what sold us on booking with her. From booking to wedding day, working with Keleigh felt like working with a friend. I could text/email her with the silliest questions and know that she would respond, give me the info I needed, and hype me up! We had a beautiful engagement session on the beach, where Keleigh drove almost 2 hours to meet us at a location that had significance for us. She helped us feel comfortable in front of a camera, and delivered the most gorgeous engagement gallery. In preparing for our wedding day, Keleigh sent us a lengthy guide that answered common questions and helped us feel prepared for our big day. We had a call to go over logistics for the day, put together a list of people we wanted to have in portraits, and make a timeline for getting ready photos. Even up until the day before the wedding, Keleigh was able to accommodate details shifting without question. She brought Lindsey Morrissey as a second photographer who was also phenomenal. Leticia, Keleigh’s assistant, took some awesome BTS shots that are such a cool touch to have to look back at memories. On our wedding day, Keleigh commanded the room and got all of our portraits of us with wedding party/family done seemingly effortlessly right after our first look. I was anxious about getting all of these photos done and still having time to reset prior to walking down the aisle. Keleigh made the process so efficient that we finished with more than enough time to return to the bridal suite and hang out with our wedding party before lining up for the ceremony. We were able to sneak away for some more portraits after the ceremony, and had no doubt that we’d gotten all of the formal pictures we wanted in a timely manner while still being able to enjoy our day. Not even 24 hours after our wedding, we got over 50 sneak peeks from our gallery. We CANNOT get over how beautiful they are. We’ve had so many friends and family say that they are some of the best wedding photos they’ve ever seen. We are so thrilled to get our full gallery back and hang our photos in our house, build photo albums for family members, and look back fondly on our wedding day for years to come. Thank you, thank you, thank you Keleigh for capturing our wedding so perfectly and being a friend throughout the entire process. We recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding/event photographer, and hope to work with her again!

Your wedding is a day that is filled with a wide range of emotions. A new beginning comes with more than just happiness. There is fear of the new, letting go of the past, the feeling of accomplishment from parents and loved ones and of course the excitement and joy in deciding to take a life long adventure with someone you love. My goal is to capture all of these emotions for you, so you can cherish and relive them for many years to come.

Joe Werner is an amazing videographer! He was so wonderful to work with through the whole wedding planning process and on the wedding day. He helped us with photographer questions and while we picked a photographer he wasn't familiar with, he worked alongside them so well (even received compliments on well they got along from bridal party friends). Joe made sure we didn't miss a single moment captured from the wedding day. He took drone footage of the venue in the morning, joined the bridal party by 1, met up with the groomsmen, then captured the first look, ceremony, reception, and stayed for the grand exit at 11pm. Truly above and beyond our expectations! Joe created a wedding trailer and full video with complete first look, ceremony, speeches, and dancing. We chose songs that are special to us for the videos and put everything together just the way we remembered it. Highly recommend Joe Werner for your own wedding day videos, we were so happy with him from the beginning to the end!

I had the ABSOLUTE PLEASURE of working with Fania and her team (Christie and Sydney) this past September for my wedding. They were essential in bringing my vision to life and creating beautiful memories that will last a lifetime! Fania was extremely responsive and pleasant to work with throughout the entire process from booking, to the trial, to the big day. On the day of, they were timely (even running early - which with 15 girls to glam is not only impressive to say the least, but also allowed for a stress free environment all morning), and as a bride I couldn't have been more grateful. From the second they arrived until after my second look for my reception (a full 12 hour day for them), the attention to detail, the talent and the energy they brought is absolutely unmatched. My day would not have been the same without them! I speak for myself and all of my girls when I say that we have never felt more beautiful. I have been singing their praises from the rooftop to anyone who will listen and will continue to do so! If you're a soon-to-be bride I would HIGHLY recommend booking with Fania and her team!

We’ve stood in your shoes, and we know how important it is to capture a story full of meaning and heart. Our goal is to narrate the day as we see it, embracing every emotion and sentiment that unfolds. With over a decade of experience, we’ve told countless stories—sometimes we can predict the moments, and other times they surprise us. But we’re always excited to discover and capture the next amazing story.

Awarded Best of Zola
Olya and Tony are on a completely different level. It’s truly art when you watch someone love what they do. They are professionals and skilled craftsmen. For example, we originally planned to have our first look at a nearby park, but they suggested that we book a private area instead. Both my fiancé and I were skeptical and unsure if we should, since it required us to spend a little more. All I can say is that I’m glad we did. You can’t control the weather, and on the day of our wedding, it rained. Thanks to their advice, we have some of the best photos I’ve ever seen. During our first look, Tony directed me on where to stand, while Olya guided the bride. She fixed her dress when needed and noticed minor details most people would overlook. And don’t get me started on the actual wedding—Tony, like a magician, was able to capture key moments and genuine reactions. During out wedding both Tony and Olya directed us on how to stand, where we should place our hands and which way we should look. They communicated with us and coached us through each photo. Before the wedding they helped us plan a timeline and were quick to respond if we needed to make changes. The two of them are a blast to have around and the results are something else. I couldn’t be happier with how things turned out.

For as long as I can remember I have always loved to create. My passion for photography started when I was a teen. As I honed in on my craft I began to photograph on a more professional level right out of high school, but stepped away for academic pursuits. After completing both a bachelors and master's degree in Anthropology, I came full circle, determining that a career in doing something creative was where my heart lies. Whether it is your wedding, or any other special moment in your life, I cherish the opportunity to document it in a way that highlights the artistic elements, while still capturing an authenticness that is uniquely you.

We had a meeting with Mark a few weeks before the wedding and he was very organized. During the day of our wedding I missed a few things and Mark worked with us on being flexible and adding a few things in. We really appreciated how easy going Mark was on those little last minute details. During our wedding Mark even had a special detail for my husband and I on his DJ screen and he made our wedding extra special with the New Years Count down! My husband and I and our guests are still talking about the music and how the dance floor was packed the whole night!! Mark was a great DJ and I would recommend him to anyone getting married! Thank you for making our Wedding so Special and Fun!! L
