Terrence Irving Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (26 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Portland, CT

Black Connecticut wedding photographer, purveyor of the artistically-engineered photography experience. That's a crafty way of saying, I'm a computer nerd who's pretty good at photography and believes in great service! Digital image gallery, print rights, and beautiful, physical prints included with every package. My work focuses on telling my couples’ wedding day love stories through the pictures I capture. Artwork is the goal, whether it’s a highly-stylized posed photo or a moment where a loved one is emoting.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We found Terrence very early on in our wedding process. His gallery had some of the most beautiful photos we had ever seen; some were dramatic, which is what my husband loves, others were soft, warm, and candid, which were my favorites. To find a photographer that could fit both of our styles was so exciting. Terrence’s package was over our budget, in part because we were marrying in NY, so would have to pay a travel fee. I was convinced I could find someone within budget. I searched and agonized for an additional two months. Finally, my now-husband convinced me that the photos would be the one thing from the day we would get to keep forever and we sprang for Terrence and let me tell you, both of us have agreed the extra cost was more then justified. In high heat and humidity and looming storms, Terrence did everything he could to keep us on-schedule and to get incredible photos at a venue he had never even been to. We just received our sneak peak gallery and all of us are in awe of the photos he captured. We look forward to working with Terrence in the future for other big life moments, and you should absolutely book him too - engagement shoot or wedding, Terrence will capture your moment perfectly!”

Cozy, natural, and fun storytelling for those who value being in the moment. We’re Erin & Peter — Connecticut wedding photographers who blend classic portraits and candid, joyful moments; documenting weddings across Connecticut, Hudson Valley, and New England.

“Daphne and Deane (Peter and Erin) are the best photographers we could’ve ever asked for! They’re warm, easy to talk to and incredibly skilled at what they do. We haven’t received all our photos back yet as our wedding was just a couple weeks ago, but they delivered many preview photos to us within just a couple days and what we’ve seen so far is absolutely stunning! They do such a good job of getting the shots in quickly and somehow being everywhere at once without being in the way at all. I’m already thinking of other shoot ideas so that we can work with them again because they’re just all around lovely, talented and professional. We cannot wait to see all our photos, we already know they’re going to be perfection.”

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

“Grace is an amazing photographer! If I could give her 10 stars I absolutely would. She was amazing working with both of our crazy families and from the very beginning I knew that she’d do a great job capturing the special moments of our special day. She worked with everyone and did a great job explaining what everyone needed to do to get a perfect shot. She also was absolutely wonderful with our 2 year old son who would’ve climbed in the car and went home with her if he could. If I could do it all over again I would definitely always pick Grace to shoot our wedding! She was an amazing addition to the day and we are so thankful that we found her.”

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.

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.

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!”

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.”

I'm Meadow, the photographer behind Meadow's Studio. I’ve been drawn to photography for as long as I can remember, and after graduating high school I chose to pursue it seriously, earning a BFA in Photography. Since then, I’ve been building my business around the same idea that first inspired me, preserving memories in a way that feels real. What I want for is for you to open your album years from now and remember not just how everything looked, but how it felt. These photographs are more than images, they’re an investment in how your memories are preserved and remembered.

“From our first conversation with Meadow's Studio, we knew we were in good hands. She guided us through every step and showed us plenty of examples beforehand, so we felt confident about what to expect. On our wedding day, Meadow captured something truly special—especially during the after-party when Noah's father surprised us with an impromptu Jewish celebration and we were lifted into the air on chairs. The photos from that moment are chaotic, joyful, and bring us right back to the experience. What impressed us most was how organized everything felt, and the final gallery proved it. Meadow arranged the photos by timeline with different sizes and themes, capturing not just us but our guests and all the details we'd planned. We couldn't be happier with the results.”

“Pamela and Junior of J&P Visuals Photography were an absolute joy to work with throughout our wedding experience. From our very first interaction, they were incredibly attentive to every detail and made us feel comfortable and at ease. Their communication style was warm and personable, and they were always responsive to our questions and requests. The quality of their work is truly exceptional - they captured every important moment of our special day with such skill and artistry. We had three photoshoots with them in total, and they were able to beautifully document all the unique and meaningful moments, creating incredible memories that we will cherish forever. Pamela and Junior are so talented and have such wonderful personalities; we felt like we were working with friends rather than just vendors. We cannot recommend J&P Visuals Photography highly enough!”
