We specialize in Fine Art Photography & Cinematic Story Telling for Western, Indian, South Asian & Fusion Weddings. We are fun, easy going and deeply intentional about the way we work.

“Working with Tharun and his entire photography team was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding reception. From the very beginning, they were incredibly professional, creative, and genuinely invested in making every moment unforgettable. They went above and beyond our expectations in every possible way. The quality of the photos and videos was simply phenomenal. Every shot captured the emotions, joy, and beauty of our celebration so perfectly that we get to relive those memories every time we look at them. But what truly blew us away were the edits they were absolutely fire! The cinematic quality, attention to detail, colors, transitions, and storytelling were on another level. The biggest testament to their talent was the response we received online. Every Instagram post created performed incredibly well, with friends, family, and even people we didn’t know commenting on how stunning the content looked. The visuals were so captivating that our posts went viral, and we continue to receive compliments weeks later. Beyond their exceptional talent, Tharun and his team were warm, patient, organized, and an absolute pleasure to work with. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured natural, candid moments that we’ll treasure for a lifetime. If you’re looking for a photography and videography team that combines creativity, professionalism, and world-class editing, look no further than Tharun and his team. They don’t just capture memories they create timeless works of art. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for the very best.”

Rachel Kimberly Photography LLC

  • Fine art style

  • Serves Hartford, CT

Hey there! I'm Rachel! I'm a Connecticut-based wedding photographer, but I absolutely adore traveling all over the globe for photography. My creative approach to weddings includes visual artistry, passionate skill, and a heck of a good time! After all, this is the most amazing day of your life. So let's make it freakin' amazing! My love for people is the fire behind my love for photography and portraits, whether it's a wedding day, maternity photos, or family portraits. Because I come from a family with seven children, I bring the "everyone is family" vibe to each of my sessions, which allows all of my clients to be relaxed.

“I cannot recommend Rachel enough. After spending a significant amount of time identifying what style of photography we preferred, Rachel’s photography came out well ahead of everyone else’s. Working with her was just as exceptional. Throughout the process, Rachel provided guidance and was a valuable resource given her knowledge as someone who has participated in many weddings. Our engagement shoot was the first proof that we had definitely chosen right. While we got lucky on the timing of the shoot (we nailed peak cherry blossom bloom), she truly transformed an average city park into an amazing setting. She was easy to get along with and took the stress out of the photoshoot process. She guided us through the park and through different poses seamlessly. When we got the photos back, far quicker than expected, we, and our families, were blown away by them. There was fantastic range too, from romantic to moody to playful. On the wedding day, she kept us on task while blending into the background. She made sure we kept moving through our shot list and captured everything, but during the formalities I forgot she was even there. We worked with a videographer she was not familiar with, but they collaborated effectively sharing shot ideas with each other without stepping on the other’s toes. Rachel and her second photographer did an excellent job of catching the little moments that we wanted to see but weren’t always present for. As with the engagement shoot, the final results were amazing. We can’t stop looking at all of them, from the funny candids to formal shots that make us feel like we could be on the cover of a magazine!”

Whether you're enjoying wedding planning and excited to choose a photographer, or ready for the entire shindig to be over, I want to help and support you from right now until the dance floor, while creating dramatic images that tell a story of you two, your day, and your unique brand of love. Take a look at my full body of work on my website, and if you like what you see and read, let's have our first conversation!

Awarded Best of Zola
“Listen… I did not just get a photographer for my wedding. I accidentally hired a full-time therapist, hype man, crisis manager, and unofficial member of the bridal party. This man showed up ready to WORK. He matched my vibe instantly—like we’d been besties since middle school. Every time I started spiraling, he’d magically appear like, “Hey, breathe. Also turn slightly to the left, the light is perfect.” Iconic behavior. He kept me laughing, kept me calm, and somehow managed to capture every moment I didn’t even realize was happening. The candid shots? Chef’s kiss. The posed shots? Gorgeous. The emotional support? Honestly priceless. If you want a photographer who will take stunning photos while also making sure you don’t mentally combust on your wedding day, THIS IS YOUR GUY. He understood the assignment, delivered the assignment, and sprinkled extra sparkle on top. 10/10 would get married again just to have him photograph it. (Kidding. Mostly.)”

“We were so blessed with fantastic vendors on our day, but Mary truly helped us bring the whole thing together. From the moment we chatted on the phone, we knew we were in great hands!! With her quote, she sent over a proposed timeline for the day and recommendations of timing / number of photographers-- we used this to quite literally plan our whole day timeline around, and we were never running low on time; everything felt according to plan and never rushed. (Family photos were SO smooth!) Her level of detail is so special, and we loved the photos captured of all the hard work we put in on the decorations, venue, etc. as well as the organic human moments filled with emotion, silliness and beyond! She makes you feel so comfortable and ease immediately, which helped bring out the sweetness and silliness in our couples photos. We also got the BEST reception photos and loved how much happened on the dance floor or at cocktail hour that we didn't even see happen (because, you know, you're a bit busy seeing everyone)! Could not have asked for a better photographer, and we're so happy we had her for our day.”

“Lindsay and Nathan were absolutely fantastic! We are not naturally photogenic people, but they made us feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera. From start to finish, they were a dream to work with — super easy to get in touch with and always responded right away. We got 100 sneak peeks the very next day, which completely blew us away — and every single photo was stunning. Our friends and family can’t believe the incredible shots they captured and how organized and calm they were throughout the day. They truly handled everything on the wedding day and took so much stress off of us. We didn’t have to worry about a thing — they kept everything running smoothly and made the whole experience enjoyable. It was also such a huge plus that they handle both photography and videography! Our engagement session with Lindsay was also such a great experience and made us feel even more comfortable leading up to the wedding.

Savage Wedding Co. is for couples who want their wedding to feel like themselves — not a performance, not a production, and not something they have to manage all day. I work with a balance of structure and flexibility: enough direction to keep things moving, and enough space for moments to unfold without forcing them. I don’t chase perfection or try to smooth out every edge. Some moments are quiet. Some are awkward. Some don’t fit neatly into a highlight reel — and that’s usually where the honest stuff lives. I don’t rush past those moments or reshape them to look like something else. I let things be.

He incorporated our vision for our day and captured both the large and small moments. We can't recommend him enough! Thanks Magnus!”

“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 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!

“We booked Kristin Griffin Photography for our recent September wedding. Our photographers for day of, Jess and Caroline were fabulous! They were both incredibly professional, organized, and warm. They made sure we not only got our full shot list, but also photos we hadn't thought to ask for. Their easy demeanor was felt across the bridal party and several of our guests and family commented on how great they were. Easy planning process, and felt listened to and reassured through each step of the process. Would absolutely recommend!”

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

“L & L Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Lexi, one of the photographers, was incredibly effective and charismatic in her communication style, making the experience fun and easy. She was patient in answering all our questions and ensuring every moment was captured beautifully. The quality of their work is truly top tier, and their services are very affordable, making them a tremendous value. Lexi rocked every single moment, seamlessly blending into the celebration and creating absolute magic with her moody, romantic photography style. I've worked with many photographers, and Lexi is now my go-to - I cannot recommend L & L Photography highly enough.”

HELLO! My name is Sarah Barbagallo. I am a 27-year-old wife and mama to 2 sons. I have been behind the lens for as long as I can remember. Photography started out as a hobby for me, but the last 5 years has become my full-time business and I haven't looked back since!​

“Sarah B Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day! From our very first interaction, Sarah was friendly, professional, and prompt in all her communications. On the day of our wedding, she seamlessly captured all the special moments we wanted - from the moody, fall-inspired portraits to the candid shots of our guests having a blast. The sneak peek exceeded our expectations, perfectly reflecting the vibe we were going for. We especially appreciated that Sarah took the initiative to photograph our wedding decor, even though we had forgotten to ask her to do so. She also had the BEST photo ideas, like the one of us kissing beneath my veil which ended up being my favorite photo! Her attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile made her great value for the fair pricing. We would highly recommend Sarah B Photography to any couple looking for a talented, personable photographer to document their big day.”

“Junior and Pamela are amazing. You will not regret booking them. We have booked them from numerous photo shoots: our engagement session, 2 mini Christmas tree shoots, my family, my husband's family, and of course our wedding. As we are expecting our first child, we are planning on booking a few more shoots this year. My walls are decorated with all the memories they have captured for us over these last 2 years. We are so grateful for the magic they have created for us.”

Passionate about storytelling and as a wedding photographer with a deep love for capturing love stories in their most authentic and beautiful moments. For me, weddings aren’t just about posed smiles—they’re about the raw emotions, the stolen glances, and the little details that make each couple’s day uniquely theirs.

“Will Castellanos Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we first spoke with Will, his prompt, high energy and helpful communication style put us at ease. The quality of his work is truly worth every penny - his artistic, high quality photos beautifully captured all the special moments of our day. Will went above and beyond, helping to course correct when my makeup artist ran late, turning up the energy during our photo session, and thoughtfully straightening crooked ties on my bridal party. Will provided a genuine, guiding experience throughout our hectic wedding day, ensuring we have stunning photos to cherish forever.”
