Enchanted Celebrations was truly an amazing company to work for. We got the package with photographer, videographer, DJ, and photo booth and it was the BEST thing we did for our wedding.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Ben and Kim from Kindred Photography for our wedding, and I can't recommend them enough! Ben was not only professional and talented, but he also brought an artist's eye to every shot. Even though we had a plan for where to take pictures at our venue, Ben would stop us and say, "Hey, what do you think about this?" His picture choices ended up being our favorites – they truly captured the essence of our day. Kim was so sweet and thoughtful, even getting me some of my pictures early so I could use them for Christmas gifts. Working with Kindred Photography was such a joy, and I am so grateful for the beautiful memories they helped us preserve!

Hi! I'm Kristen. I'm a wedding, boudoir, and portrait photographer who loves to make people laugh, connect with each other, and feel beautiful in their own skin. Based in New Milford, CT and serving Connecticut and beyond. Questions? Visit my website!

Kristen was just the loveliest person on earth to work with. Not only is she fanTASTIC at what she does (for reference: the lighting in the venue was kind of sterile and too bright for most of the night because we couldn't figure out how to dim the lights and then it was pitch black once we turned them off, but you would never know in the photos!), but she was also so so sweet and made us feel confident and beautiful. From posed to candid, you can trust her to capture you in the best way. As 2 fat brides we thought a lot about photography because we knew the common poses/ photography styles might not translate for us, but we couldn't be more happy with how everything turned out. I would book Kristen 1000x over, so don't hesitate!

Hello! We are Rob + Kelly Villetto and we are so happy that you clicked through to check out more. Who are we and what are we about?

Claudia Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $8,500
  • Serves Pleasant Valley, CT

My work blends an editorial sensibility with a documentary approach. The imagery is composed, detail driven, and lived in, with a strong sense of being inside the moment. I photograph with attention and care so you can feel like your truest self, preserving not only how your day looked but how it actually felt. I am drawn to celebrations where the experience matters just as much as the aesthetics, and where nothing ever feels forced or performed.

Claudia is one of the best photographers I've ever worked with. With an incredible eye for detail, she is amazing at freezing moments in time in the most masterful, artistic way. Her style is gorgeous and truly her own. I've seen firsthand how hard she works for her clients, getting to know them well and giving them a lot of attention and warmth. Claudia is so supportive of other vendors and a great team player and above all, just the most fun, energetic and kind person you'll ever meet. I highly recommend her!

We had such a great experience with Original Weddings! They handled both our wedding photos and video, and I was honestly so impressed with how everything turned out. They offer three different editing styles plus black and white, which I loved! I ended up choosing all four and it gave us such a great variety of looks and really captured all the different moments and vibes from our day. I’ll add a few photos in the three different styles so you can see the differences! They were easy to work with, professional, and made us feel comfortable the whole time. We also got our photos and video back super quickly, faster than their average turnaround, which was such a nice surprise. Everything exceeded my expectations, and I’ll cherish it forever. Highly recommend!

In the 20 years that I've been photographing professionally, I’ve honed my skill of knowing when to step in and make things happen, and when to step back and simply *allow* things to happen. Documenting the REAL emotion of the day is how we capture those picture-perfect moments. They happen organically, not by force, and I promise you: we're not going to miss ANY of them. = )

Working with Christopher and his team was the absolute best! From the beginning they were so thoughtful and informative every step of the way. Christopher eased our jitters by recommending a fun pre-wedding photoshoot before our rehearsal dinner which we would've never thought to do but absolutely loved. His calming presence throughout the wedding day made it so easy for us to relax in the moment, this sense of calm and joy was perfectly captured in our photos. Following our wedding, we worked with his design team on our wedding album. They too made this part of the process seamless, we were able to make decisions swiftly and with ease because of their expertise and support. We couldn't be happier with the overall experience or results!

My name is Ali Cushing; a NY-based photographer working in a blended documentary and editorial approach, emphasized with a cinematic method, and a personalized, true to life editing style. I am honored to be entrusted with depicting genuine love, authentic characters, and immortalizing precious memories. I see beauty in the subtle details as much as the wide, epic scene, while I see glory in the mundane in-between moments as much as the heart thudding highs. I am adamant that everyone, of all genders and orientations, any ethnicity, culture, or faith, all shapes, ages, and abilities, are welcome and I’d be delighted to work with you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the most amazing time working with Ali! We had kind of a long engagement and we initially started working with Ali over a year and a half before our wedding to get our engagement photos done. Not only were the photos beautiful, but Ali made us feel super comfortable and at ease throughout our session. Leading up to our wedding day, Ali was amazing at coordinating the day of timeline with our coordinator and making sure that all the elements that were important to us were included so that we had enough time to capture the moments. One of my favorite things about working with Ali is her calm presence. Every time I was stressed about something in the planning process about the timeline I would talk to Ali and she would immediately make me feel at ease. She was constantly reminding me that the most important thing on my wedding day was to be present with our friends and family (and as a type A bride this was a much-needed reminder!) Ali also came to take photos at our rehearsal dinner and welcome party which was great because she got to know our families and our family dynamics before our big day which was a huge help! On the wedding day Ali and the second shooter Scottie were rockstars! They went above and beyond at every opportunity from helping the boys tie a bow tie, climbing out on my fire escape to get a crazy photo that I had in mind, moving locations at last minute, dealing with rain, helping bustle my dress, and of course capturing all the beauty of our perfect day. I will not hesitate to work with Ali and her team again! She’s amazing, a true professional, and I hope we have the chance to have her capture our big milestones in the years to come.

Emily shot our wedding reception in August for 2025. She was seriously a dream to work it. So efficient and easy. We had two phone calls before our day to set the timeline up and figure out what our priorities for that day were. On the day she scoped out where to shoot the photos and then executed everything seamlessly. Even our bridal party spoke about how good she was. We had changed a few things last minute and Emily was so great with accommodating us. We cannot thank her enough for helping to make our day so special and documenting all the sweet moments we didn’t want to forget. Thanks Emily!!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Cate was an absolute dream to work with! She captured both our elopement wedding (10 guests at a beachside Airbnb in East Haven in early September) and a 1-hour couples’ photoshoot (early morning at the Yale campus in mid-October 2024). We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Her incredible skill, warm demeanor, and attention to detail truly set her apart. We spoke with many prospective photographers before deciding, but we just couldn’t look away from working with Cate after going through her brilliant portfolio and speaking with her on Zoom. Cate made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She has an amazing ability to put you at ease, making the entire process natural and fun. The photos she took are some of our absolute favorites. We love how she captured our families, wedding ceremony, and couple photos with so much emotion and authenticity! One of the standout things about Cate is how prolific she is. She took and shared a delightfully ridiculous number of photos with us—over 2–3 photos per minute! Every single shot was excellently curated and edited, showcasing her skills as both a photographer and storyteller. Cate went above and beyond, even while balancing personal challenges during her busiest season, to deliver a stunning gallery that exceeded all our expectations. She was also kind and thoughtful in all her communications with us and incredibly generous while photographing us for several minutes after our scheduled time had ended. We wholeheartedly recommend Cate to anyone looking for a wedding or portrait photographer! She is immensely talented, professional, and a joy to work with. We not only found our go-to photographer for all our future needs, but also a kind friend through this process. Thank you, Cate, for capturing the most precious moments of our lives so beautifully—we are so grateful for your skill and compassion!

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

It was such a pleasure working with Emma Cleary photography and videography. From the start, Emma was great to communicate with and always responded very promptly. She was organized from the start and made planning easy. The crew really captured the day so beautifully and professionally and looking back on the photos and videos makes us so happy. We keep watching the videos over and over! The editing and attention to detail on all of their work is all at such an incredibly high level. The photographers (David, Dilmurad) and the videographer (Kamil) were so fun and easy on the day of the wedding, they knew exactly how to get the perfect shots in a way that didn’t interrupt the flow of the day while still capturing everything so well. When the Groomsmen didn’t know how to properly attach their boutonnieres, the cameraman stepped up to help out and show them how to do it! We were running a bit behind schedule on the Bride’s side during the day of the wedding, but the crew was patient with us and found plenty to take pictures of while we finished getting ready. Emma Cleary’s team were all such fun to work with and we are so thankful for the memories that they captured.

I'm Matthew, a wedding photographer based in Garrison, NY. With a decade as a wedding photographer and 15 years as an educator, I bring two things to every wedding: the ability to document moments as they happen, and the calm to handle whatever the day brings. I prepare carefully, communicate beforehand, and stay present when it's busy. My style is mostly documentary. I blend into the wedding, observing and documenting moments as they happen rather than staging them. Feedback I hear most often is that couples weren't aware of me, but that I got everything. I work with all couples and celebrate every kind of love, and every kind of marriage.

Matthew was phenomenal. From our first meeting through the end of our wedding, Matthew was calm, friendly, organized, and professional, and he worked well with everyone from our grandparents to our 3-year-old ringbearer . We felt at ease with him in control of our wedding photos and could not be happier with the results--absolutely beautiful photos that tell the complete story of our wedding. Highly recommend!

Visit my Instagram for contact info and more photography! — ErinWholleyPhotography • Weddings are a culmination of love, life, happiness, family history, commitment, art, and so much more. My love for photography and the importance it plays in remembering cherished moments spans decades. Photographs are one of the only tangible items you receive after your wedding day (aside from the memories) to help you relive this time for the rest of your days. I will hype you up all day long to make sure you are enjoying every aspect of your day with your partner— that’s truly what it’s all about!

My Husband and I honestly can’t say enough amazing things about Erin. She's based in Massachusetts, where we're from, and we brought her all the way to Cabo with us for our destination wedding — and it was truly one of the best decisions we made. Not only did she capture our engagement photos beautifully, but she also went above and beyond for our entire wedding week in Cabo. Erin was so much more than just our photographer — she became part of our wedding party. She hung out with us for multiple days, captured everything from our welcome party to our wedding day, and even took extra photos afterward that we hadn’t even asked for. She has this incredibly warm, down-to-earth energy that made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. So many of our friends and family couldn’t stop raving about her — they all said she truly enhanced the experience and felt like family by the end of the trip. All of our photos are absolutely fantastic. Just a couple of days after the wedding, while we were still on our honeymoon, Erin sent us 300 sneak peeks! She curated them in a way that told the story of the entire day from start to finish — it felt like we were reliving it all over again, and we loved reminiscing together while still soaking in the newly wed bliss. And when we received our full wedding gallery? Nearly 3,000 photos — every single one captured with care, emotion, and such an eye for detail. It’s insane in the best way possible, and we truly cannot wait to make our album. If you’re considering working with Erin — do it. She’s not only ridiculously talented, but also someone who will bring so much heart and joy to your wedding experience. We’re so grateful we found her!

I have always been passionate about capturing life's most special moments through my camera lens, and there's nothing quite like the magic of a wedding day. I consider it an honor and privilege to document the love story of each unique couple I work with.

We were so thrilled to have Madison as our wedding photographer. From our engagement shoot to the wedding at Fort Adams, she was a total pleasure to work with. We had a little rust being in front of the camera, but one of Madison’s great skills is making you feel comfortable, natural, and helping to pose you. On top of being a pro at what she does, Madison is super down to earth and easy to be around. She also has a great sense of humor and kept us laughing throughout our shoots. Madison nailed the timing of everything on our wedding day — we got the photos we wanted without feeling rushed or missing out on time with each other or our families. She made the whole process so smooth and enjoyable. We couldn’t recommend her enough! If you want someone who’s talented, chill, and cares about making your day memorable, Madison is the one!

We have hired Ihor for both our engagement and wedding photos, and they turned out beautifully every time! The photos are truly breathtaking; he managed to capture the day in such a touching and personal way. He really knows how to direct people to make the pictures look beautiful. He is a true expert! We couldn’t be luckier to have had him capture multiple special moments in our lives, and if we ever need a photographer in the future we will be back! THANK YOU IHOR!

For over a decade, I’ve photographed weddings with a focus on timeless imagery, genuine emotion, and refined storytelling. I’m drawn to couples who value authentic moments alongside beautifully crafted portraits. From getting ready details through to your final send off, I work intuitively and unobtrusively so you can stay present while I preserve the joy, elegance, and energy of your day.

Working with Bryan for our special day was an absolute breeze. He made us feel so comfortable and honored any request we had. Bryan arrived to the getting ready suites on our wedding day with a framed photo of Dan and I from our engagement shoot, which we now have on our nightstand. Bryan is thoughtful, attentive, and truly cares about each couple. Bryan and Blaze were both supportive and efficient throughout the entire day. He even sent our sneak peek photos less than one week after our wedding on 2/1/25! Bryan and his team kept timing on track and helped keep the calm atmosphere throughout the day and night. The photos are absolutely stunning and everything we could have imagined- candid, clear, crisp and fun photos to really capture the energy of the night. We cannot wait for our full album and HIGHLY recommend Bryan and his team for any and all photography needs!
