We are Jasmine Tianna Photography, a wedding photography business located in Connecticut. We believe a couple's love story deserves to be captured in the most beautiful way possible. Recognizing that a wedding is a singular moment in time, we'll capture it in away that envelopes intimacy and romance. Trying to capture every detail with a stylish, journalistic approach so the pictures can be enjoyed for many years to come.

Jasmine was an easy choice to pick. From first reaching out until the end of wedding night, she was always kind, prompt and professional. She did our engagement photos and spent 8 hours with us on our wedding day. Photos from both days turned out ethereal, beautiful and stunning. We are obsessed with them. Me and my now husband are very camera shy and she made us feel and look great. Her photographic eye is really out of this world, she sees the beauty in any setting or back drop and captures it on camera. Her portfolio speaks for itself, I would hire her again without hesitation. Thank you Jasmine!

Hey Karis

  • Photographer

  • Serves Milldale, CT

The ordinary can easily become the extraordinary, simply by willing it so. At the end of the day, your wedding photos should be no different. Because you are beautiful in your own special way. And who makes the rules? You do. And should you invite me to be a part of your most amazing day ever, I promise to show you only the most fun, amazing photos that’ll showcase the fun-loving and free spirits of two crazy-in-love individuals (and knock everyone’s socks off too). So be yourself. You can laugh, cry, or shout silly things if you want to. It’ll feel awesome, promise. The only rule is that there are no rules. Now let’s go have some fun :).

My husband and I were so lucky to have found Karis as our photographer for our wedding. She is incredibly talented. After our engagement shoot with her, we felt so comfortable with her style and direction. She made us feel at ease right away. On our wedding day, Karis and her assistant (MJ!) seamlessly guided us and our family/wedding party through all of the pre-ceremony photos. Karis was so creative with directing us. My day-of coordinator even said she's never seen a photographer take such unique and creative shots before. We received all our photos exactly one month after the wedding and words cannot describe how amazing they came out. It was so difficult to pick out just 90 photos for our formal album. We are so happy we now have a photographer-friend for life! We cannot recommend Karis enough. If you choose her as your photographer, you won't regret it.

Christina Rosario Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,800
  • Serves Milldale, CT

Hello there! Thank you for stopping by! My name is Christina and I am a natural light, lifestyle photographer. I am so excited for this journey called photography. I take my inspiration from music, light, art and my two beautiful girls, Chloe and Mabel. Photos are so important. They are what we have after a wedding or when our children are all grown up. I like to take photos of how people interact and try to capture their personality in a photo. I would love to take part in recording memories for you and your family.

Hiring Christina as our photographer was easily the best decision we made in the wedding planning process. From the beginning, friends advised us to be picky with our choice of photographer because aside from each other, this was the person we’d spend the most time with on our wedding day. We knew right away Christina would be the right choice. She has such a calm energy while being totally on top of everything, she’s funny, and she’s really resourceful. We also felt super safe and comfortable as a queer couple working with Christina. Of course, she also takes the most stunning photos! We chose to hire her because of her ability to really capture people’s essence in photos, and she completely knocked it out of the park. None of our photos came out looking generic or stiff - looking back on them now, we can feel the energy of the day in each of the pictures. She has a genuine magic for bringing people’s personality through in photos, especially the candid ones. She also has a particular talent for getting amazing pictures of young kids - she took a few stunning portraits of our two year old niece, who probably was not standing still for a single second that day! She also took the time to chat with us about our own relationship with ourselves in photos, and that really helped me feel more comfortable with the whole process. We’re totally blown away by the gallery we received, and if we ever needed a professional photographer again, we would absolutely make the same choice to hire Christina. We highly recommend everyone else to do the same!

This might surprise you...Prior to photography, I was a professional concert dancer. So I understand what it's like to be in the spotlight. And I understand how to use my training as a dancer to make you look stunning in front of the camera. I know the mechanics of the body and how to pose you to look your best. And on your wedding day, that is exactly how you should feel.

Lauren is so incredibly talented at what she does! I'm a wedding planner and florist, so I have the opportunity to work with many photographers in the area.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

Meaghan and Evan photographed our Halloween wedding and we couldn't imagine having anyone else! We met Meaghan and Evan last October when they shot our engagement photos. They were more than willing to trudge through our favorite park and stop at all our favorite spots to get some beautiful photos we used for our save the date. We got to get to know them a little more over at our favorite little ramen restaurant after the session and of course we were instantly sold! Meaghan was super communicative and responded to every email I sent her pretty much right away every single time. As we got closer to the wedding day, she sent an incredibly detailed questionnaire. It covered everything from our most important shots to what weird family dynamics she should be conscious of; we sincerely appreciated this level of care, especially as a queer couple with some iffy family things. When I was hiring vendors, it was extremely important to me to find vendors who were queer/queer friendly and body positive, and Meaghan checked off both boxes in spades. My wife and I both have huge body insecurities and are deeply self-conscious of photos-but Meaghan made us both feel so beautiful. I was never even aware of the parts of myself I am usually hyper aware of because Meaghan and Evan both made us feel so comfortable. We were able to laugh and feel every emotion without once worrying about how we would look in the photos. On the day of, Meaghan kept us right on track without rushing us or making us feel stressed. We were definitely running behind at points but Meaghan handled it all with grace and helped me keep my head above water the whole time. They captured every moment in such a storybook way that we are able to talk about and remember every detail of the day based on the photos. This gallery is such a keepsake and such a special reminder of the best day of our lives. Its so heartwarming to look back and see how happy we and our guests look. And my wife and I both couldn’t have asked for more stunning photos of ourselves. We both look and feel so feminine, so whimsical, so magical. She captured our authentic selves, which is what makes her photos so unique and beautiful. I can't wait to order our prints and have these photos in our home forever! Thank you, Meaghan and Evan. There's so much more I could say but I'll leave off with, we are so grateful to have had you on our day. We love our photos so much. And we can't wait to have you do another shoot for us sometime in the near future! We cannot recommend you highly enough!
