Hi there! My name is Chris Randall. I'm a wedding photographer based in New Haven, Connecticut. I've been photographing weddings for twelve years and have photographed over 100 weddings.

New Haven, CT
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

I’m Rob Skinner, a wedding photographer documenting couples in love throughout Connecticut, New England, and beyond. If you’re looking for a photography experience that is easy and stress-free, then I’m excited to join you on this journey. I’ll record your first day of marriage beautifully with natural prompts and give you timeless wedding photos that will bring you joy for a lifetime. I keep things quick and easy while also catching the essence of you, making your time with me effortless and enjoyable.

Rob Skinner Photography was an ideal choice for our elopement at city hall. From the very beginning, Rob’s communication was prompt, clear, and reassuring, making the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. On the day itself, he arrived early and guided us in capturing natural, genuine moments. He helped us pose and move in ways that felt relaxed and authentic. The final photos are stunning, with a level of detail my husband and I truly value. Beyond the reasonable pricing for a one-hour elopement, what stood out most was how comfortable he made us feel throughout the entire experience. In just one hour, he captured over 1,000 photos, ensuring no special moment was missed. We’re so happy we chose Rob Skinner Photography and would highly recommend him to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

New Haven, CT
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,700

Full-time wedding photographer currently based in Central Connecticut. I love traveling, Thai food, all dogs, almost every type of music, and pretty much anything related to astronomy. My couples become my friends instantly, no really – as soon as we have our first chat together it’s DONE. BFFs for life. Be prepared for creating secret handshakes, inside jokes, and a ton of memories together!

Kelsey was truly the best person to capture our wedding day, not just because of her amazing photography skills but also because of her effervescent and playful energy that truly made our day so fun. We were able to do our engagement shoot with Kelsey at our wedding venue, and she made us feel so comfortable even though neither my husband or I had much experience getting our photos taken. As soon as we saw the gorgeous photos from our engagement shoot, we knew we had made the right choice. When our wedding day finally came, Kelsey and her second shooter, Zach, were so fun to be around and made everyone in our wedding party and families feel happy and included. Every moment felt celebratory and fun, but they also made sure we stuck to our schedule and got all our key photos done! We are so so happy with how the photos came out. Kelsey captured the real emotions and the love that surrounded us on our wedding day, and I can’t thank her enough for the gift of being able to look back on that day through her photographs.

  • Serves New Haven, CT

I am a Connecticut-based wedding and portrait photographer obsessed with candid moments, real emotion, and the connections between human beings. I strive to capture life as we actually live it: full of beauty and roughness, joy and struggle, extravagance and simplicity. When I photograph you, I’m not thinking about getting likes on social media. I’m thinking about what will make your heart grow three times its size. I’m thinking about what will make you ugly-cry, looking back. I’m thinking about you seeing how awesome and truly loved you are.

Ephe was the best photographer ever. I was one of the last people in my friend group to get married and I’ve seen some photography disasters happen the day of. Ephe had none of that and all of my friends loved her and her work ethic. She is very punctual and organized. She understood the vibe that I was going for and she had my sneak peeks and all of my wedding pictures edited super quick! I wish I lived closer to Ephe so I could hire her for all of my photography needs.

RS Moments 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves New Haven, CT

Our style is artistic and documentary, and can be described in three words; Sincere, Scenic, and Inspirational. Sincere, we will never ask you to act unnaturally in front of our camera; we will adjust to your personalities and photograph you as you are. Scenic, because we love beautiful landscapes and love to incorporate everyone in such environments. Inspirational, because there is always a new way or a new idea to capture a photo but in the end it's capturing that special moment.

Sam did an incredible job capturing our wedding photos! Their creativity and attention to detail made every moment feel special. Sam had a fantastic ability to make us feel comfortable and relaxed, resulting in natural, candid shots that truly reflected our love.

  • Serves New Haven, CT

Hi, I'm Stephanie! I specialize in backyard weddings and small celebrations. I connect best with couples who might include their dog in the ceremony, make their day uniquely theirs, and don't sweat the small stuff. A jar of wildflowers is as interesting to me as a perfectly crafted orchid bouquet. I love documenting the small moments and details, and I see beauty everywhere on a wedding day. My face always hurts from smiling so much on my drive home! I know how to take charge for posed portraits (and always do some!) but I prefer to capture moments as they happen. I've been a photographer full-time for over fifteen years.

Awarded Best of Zola
Stephanie was absolutely AMAZING! If we could give 10 stars we would. During our consultation she was so reassuring and did not mind my many questions (and trust me there were a lot). Our day was so full of love it was overwhelming after the wedding to remember everything. With her artistic eye and ninja like movement she caught it ALL. From the natural blending moments of our families to the personality of both my husband and I together. Five years later we look at pictures or scroll through our wedding book and every happy moment comes flowing back. Thank you Stephanee, you are truly talented.

David Apuzzo, Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves New Haven, CT

David's career began when he switched majors from graphic design to photography in college. His style of photography is unique, taking advantage of natural light, insisting on quality, and bringing out the best in his subjects. Many years of experience have given him the ability to make the best of his surroundings and create a comfortable environment while managing a shoot.

We recently had the incredible opportunity to work with David as our wedding photographer, and our experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From our initial meeting, David demonstrated a deep understanding of our vision and was genuinely enthusiastic about capturing our special day. His helpfulness and guidance throughout the entire process were invaluable. David also did our engagement shoot, and the photos turned out stunning. He has a remarkable ability to capture the essence of the moment, and those initial photos only heightened our excitement for the wedding day. On the day of our wedding, David’s presence was a true blessing. He kept everyone calm and composed, which is no small feat on such an emotional day. His approach was patient and unhurried, allowing us to fully enjoy each moment without feeling rushed. David’s skill in directing group shots was impressive, ensuring everyone knew where to be and what to do, which made for smooth and efficient photo sessions. One of the things we appreciated most was David’s consideration for our comfort. He allowed us to take breaks when needed, maintaining a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere throughout the day. This thoughtful approach helped us stay refreshed and present, making the entire experience more memorable. The pictures David took were nothing short of breathtaking. Each photo beautifully captured the joy, love, and magic of our wedding day. Rachel, who assisted David, was equally fantastic. Her attention to detail and support throughout the day enhanced the overall experience and ensured everything went smoothly. In conclusion, we cannot recommend David highly enough. His and Rachel’s professionalism, talent, and warm personalities made our wedding day truly unforgettable. We are forever grateful for the incredible photos and the wonderful memories they captured for us. Thank you, David and Rachel, for your exceptional work and dedication.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves New Haven, CT

Oh, hey! I’m Dana. I am a free-spirit with a true love for connection and raw emotion. I’ve been known to get caught up in the experience and have a passion for storytelling, so my photography is candid and emotive. I’m also a sucker for a gorgeous, natural backdrop so there’s nothing better than capturing an honest moment with a killer landscape. ​ When I don’t have a camera in my hand or a client on the therapy couch, I’m busy being a Mom to twins and wife to my partner, Brandi. You can also find me decorating our home or researching our next spontaneous adventure.

We have been using Dana for about 2 years now, and she has photographed myself and family from fall portraits to a surprise vow renewals and continuously leaves us speechless with every ‘unveiling’. Dana is easy to work with. Her sessions are effortless and honestly most times we all can’t stop laughing. Her eye for detail is spot on and her creativity in the moment is so much fun to be apart of. I highly recommend using Dana for your photography use because you will not be disappointed!

Hey, I’m Alex – a Connecticut-based wedding photographer passionate about capturing the authentic moments you’ll cherish forever. As a husband and father, I know how precious every memory is, and I bring that care to each wedding I photograph. Your big day is more than just an event; it’s a story of love and laughter. So, my goal is to capture it naturally, creating a fun, comfortable atmosphere that lets your true selves shine. And I’m here to make the process enjoyable and deliver photos that exceed your expectations. Now, let’s make magic, together.

Where to even start!! Vaughn was such an amazing photographer and enhanced our wedding day more than we could have imagined. He took the time to get to know us and find out what we were looking for, and then took those ideas and helped create the magical memories we will have forever. Photos were such a stress free part of the day, and this was all because of the relationship Vaughn built with us prior to our wedding day. I could go on and on, but if you are looking for someone to help your vision come true, look no further!

Eivan's photo and video services were very affordable and were a major reason why we went with them. I think the photos we received turned out very well and captured many of the amazing moments that we had at the wedding. The service we paid for only included one photographer and one videographer but they were both very attentive and made sure to be where the action was the entire day. Overall, the experience was positive and for a bride who was more focused on living through the experience of her wedding, Eivan's did a good job of handling the stuff you don't really want to think about.

My wife and I cannot rave enough about George Street Photo & Video! From the beginning until the end (and even after the wedding!), they've gone above and beyond for us! We ended up getting our Portrait Session & Wedding Day Photo and Video through them! The Wedding Coordinators did a great job sending us emails to give us reminders on our timeline (day-of schedule, getting in the books for portrait session, etc.) and getting back to us quickly if we had any questions. We are from Austin, TX but we got married up in Valley View (DFW area, almost near the TX/OK border) and George Street was super willing to make it work! We were able to get our portraits in Austin and get scheduled with a different group in the Dallas area (instead of being limited to only one city)! The photos themselves? Absolutely gorgeous! We loved each of the photographers we worked with! We even got some compliments from our guests and our wedding party about "how nice/fun the photographers are." They were super bubbly, friendly, kind, professional, and SO creative! And we loved each of their editing styles, it was exactly what we wanted! We have so many beautiful pictures that we were excited to show off & commemorate our special day :) We had friends ask us who we got our photos with, because we've received multiple compliments on how good they are! Same with our videographer! Super easy to work with -- and we know that we can't do any re-dos when it comes to wedding videos -- so we consider ourselves blessed that Chris had all of his bases covered to make sure we had all the video and audio :) And the wedding video edit was beautiful, it brought tears to our eyes :') One unique touch: my side of the family had a lot of Deaf friends and family members, and Chris and Sarath (and the other Chris!) did a great job being friendly and accommodating them. They weren't afraid to gesture and use 1-2-3 with their hands - that really meant a lot! If you want great photos and video, great service, great support, all at a great price -- GET GEORGE STREET PHOTO & VIDEO! Thank you Amy, Chris, Sarath, and Chris for making our wedding day the most magical day ever!

From the first phone call with Pavel, I knew we were going to have an amazing team. Pavel was so incredibly thorough and reassuring and helped create a perfect timeline for the day. The team, Eddy, Rob & Dave, were so charismatic and knowledgeable. They knew exactly what to do and what instructions to give my husband and I to create the most beautiful and intimate photos. We’re a little camera shy, so the fact they were able to direct us and make us feel comfortable shows their expertise. We are so beyond happy with our photos, full length video and highlight reels. Also - I have to say, the team is so great at capturing AMAZING candids during the party! There were times I didn’t even know they were behind me, and I am so happy to have all these moments captured. I did not feel like I had a camera in my face during the party at all! We had 3K AMAZING photos to look through, and EVERY photo is fantastic. I have also watched my highlight reel so many times, and I’ve already watched my full length film and plan on watching it again with my parents.

I was overwhelmed when navigating how to choose a wedding photographer. I knew I wanted someone whose work accurately reflected the day and the people photographed, what better way than choose someone who had photographed me beautifully at a wedding! Emily was the photographer at my now SIL & BIL’s wedding. I loved her editing style and her speed of getting the right picture. I have never really loved how I look in photos, and I am hardly in front of the camera. At our engagement photoshoot at home, Emily made me feel completely at ease, and really captured great angles and unique ideas! Not only did I love how she photographed me, but I loved that it was honest. Emily shot our welcome party and our wedding. It was like see an old friend! Our guests were in awe of the photos and loved Emily’s personality. It was an absolutely gorgeous day, and possibly the most gorgeous I have ever attended, I am so glad I trusted Emily to capture the memories! What will not be shared on her public gallery are all the photos of our nieces and nephews! Emily photographed my SIL & BIL at our wedding and it was so heart warming and deeply meaningful! She was able to capture all the squirming kids in a fun way! She is truly talented and I am so grateful to have these memories for life!

The engagement shoot and wedding day photos were exactly what we were looking for - their professional, energetic approach captured all the special moments beautifully. They blended in seamlessly during our wedding day, allowing us to just enjoy the experience while they got the shots we'll treasure forever. We couldn't be happier with the stunning photos and how they contributed to making our day so special.
