Hi I'm Julia (my middle name is Jane) and I am so glad that you are here! I'm a visual storyteller who preserves love stories for a living. How great is that? My job, in addition to preserving your memories, is to make your wedding day experience easy and fun.

Extremely professional and responsive, Julia helped me plan my timeline taking into account things I didn’t even think of. Her engagement session gave us the practice we needed for the big day. She and Sarah made sure I got the pictures taken with friends and family that I had asked for. I can’t wait to see the final pictures! Thank you for making our day so special!

With over a decade of experience, Amanda specializes in timeless, radiant beauty that enhances your natural features and complements your personal style. Known for her calming presence and attention to detail, she ensures every bride and bridal party feels confident, beautiful, and photo-ready. Serving the tri-state area and beyond — let’s bring your vision to life!

Amanda was an absolute dream to work with! She did both my bridal hair and makeup as well as spray tans for me and my husband—and truly went above and beyond. I felt so beautiful and completely myself, and my hair and makeup held up perfectly the entire day (even through happy tears and lots of dancing!). But the real magic? She managed to convince my very fair, very skeptical husband to get a spray tan—and he ended up loving it. Amanda made him feel totally comfortable, and he looked healthy, confident, and glowing (instead of his usual “see-through” self). We were so lucky she was available. She’s not only incredibly talented, but also warm, calming, and a joy to be around on such an emotional day. I can’t recommend her enough!

Hey! My name is Bill. I’ve been practicing photography since 2016, where I started in automotive (if you can guess what I named my business after, bonus points). My whole process is structured mainly to eliminate the stress of worrying about your timeline on your special day. It starts with a consultation, and ends with a call a month before to solidify your schedule. My style is a blend of documentary and artistic, meaning the candid photos are what really matter, but the posed photos are what might print and frame. Regardless, your day is my focus (pun intended). If you think we’d vibe, let’s chat and make your special day great!

I haven’t even gotten married yet (wedding to come) and he’s been nothing short of amazing! Can’t wait to see my wedding photos! Highly recommend him!

I've always been the creative, organized type—planning corporate events, alumni reunions, or special gatherings for loved ones. Years ago, I planned my own backyard wedding in under three months. The day before, disaster struck—a storm took down my tents, my fiancé broke his foot, and my dad had a concussion. After a long day in the ER, I was back arranging flowers and setting up decor. Despite the chaos, the wedding was beautiful. That day taught me this: every couple deserves to enjoy their moment without stress. That’s why I’m here—to bring your vision to life, beautifully and effortlessly.

Sage & Sonder is one of the best in the business! The owner is very caring and very thorough with her work. She makes sure you get what you want and is done to it's best potential. If you have any events, whether its birthday parties, weddings, seminars, ANYTHING that could require a decorated scene, Sage & Sonder is the business to call! They made the most beautiful center pieces, balloon arches/gardens, you could ever ask for! :D

Jessie Barentsen Photography

  • Photographer
  • Starts at $5,200
  • Serves Shelton, CT

I am so happy you are here! You are either engaged, pregnant, you just became parents, or you simply love pretty, romantic, dreamy pictures like I do. I'm Jessie, originally from The Netherlands. Friends and family describe me as the most romantic dreamer they know. I love the sparkling joy of engaged couples, the romantic vibe during a wedding, the glow of expectant mothers, and the pure love between new parents and their children.

From the moment I first saw Jessie's work, I knew I wanted her to be our wedding photographer. And I every second of my experience with Jessie since then was just amazing! Jessie was among the very first vendors I booked, so I had a lot of questions and a lot of items to still plan/work through. Jessie was so unbelievably patient and helpful in talking everything through with me, and I felt so confident that she prioritized our best interest with everything she recommended! Jessie is unbelievably knowledgeable about her art and does a beautiful, beautiful job capturing elegance and romance in all of her photos. I particularly love how Jessie just "sees" when/where to get perfect lighting, and her talent is obvious in any photo you see of her's. We did our engagement shoot with Jessie in NYC on the water at sunrise (which Jessie drove down early for!) and it was my husband's and my first time in front of the camera for a professional shoot like that. Both my husband and I are very uncomfortable in front of the camera and were worried about whether we would need to learn/practice how to pose for photos before the engagement shoot and wedding. We felt so comfortable with Jessie from the very start, and on top of that, Jessie was very detailed-oriented in walking us through every movement and pose during the shoot itself. We were amazed at how natural we looked in every photo! Jessie is also super well-organized and intentional about everything, which is a must-have on your wedding day! I had put so much though into all of the photos I was going to want from my wedding, and on the day of, it was an absolute out-of-body experience. Jessie struck the perfect balance of helping direct us/everyone and making sure we got everything we needed, but was also very patient and accommodating with us and all of our people throughout the entire day. I am struggling to find the words to articulate just how much I LOVED having Jessie as our wedding photographer, and am clearly making up for that with a lengthy review, but the last thing I'll say is this: Jessie was so incredible to have on our vendor team from the very first day to the last, but at the end of the day, what matters most is how you like your photos. Jessie sent us a sneak peek of our wedding photos 2 days after our wedding while my husband and I were on our honeymoon, and not only did I burst into tears at how beautiful they all were, but I also could not stop looking at them. We ultimately decided that I was going to leave my phone in the hotel room when we went out because I couldn't stop myself from looking at the photos over and over and over again. I am only able to upload 10 photos with my review, and I had a difficult time picking just 10 to showcase just how amazed we were/are with them! We picked a handful of the photos we particularly love because Jessie did such an incredible job of capturing the authenticity of our emotions and energy that you can feel it through the photo. I cannot wait until the day we can use Jessie again when we are ready for a newborn photoshoot! Thank you, Jessie and team, SOOO much for everything!

Monica has been an officiant since 2018. In 2020, she began incorporating premarital counseling with officiant services.

We were so fortunate to have Monica from Hope Family Counseling officiate our vow renewal ceremony. Her warm, clear, and thoughtful communication style put us at ease from the very beginning. Monica took the time to get to know us as a couple, crafting a heartfelt and intentional ceremony that was truly memorable and meaningful. Her elegant words during the ceremony brought everyone to tears, perfectly capturing our love and 10-year journey together. We are incredibly grateful for Monica's presence and care, and we highly recommend her to any couple looking for a meaningful and unforgettable celebration.

My ultimate goal is to capture your memories as timelessly, artistically, and organically as possible. Both intentional and creative, I shoot a combination of digital and film. I will document your wedding as it naturally unfolds, seamlessly incorporating tailored portraiture, candid storytelling, and elevated editorial detail. The result is a collection of timeless images; candid yet composed moments, artfully blended classic photographs with joyful spontaneity. I serve my clients with not only stunning images, but with impeccable service. I work with couples in NYC, New England and worldwide.

Finding the perfect photographer for our wedding was at the very top of my priority list when our wedding planning began. I had a very specific aesthetic in mind, but more than that, I wanted to find someone who I'd think of as a friend.Josephine was just that. She inherently knew which small details I'd want captured & how. She truly went above and beyond in every way and our photos turned out absolutely stunning. More than just an incredible photographer, I found exactly what I was looking for and more, a confidant, an artist, & a dear and trusted friend.

Years ago, when I first was able to see my Mom and Dad getting married on a Super 8mm film, it was amazing to me... Now, as my daughters watch their grandparents getting married, I watch as well, seeing faces from both my parents as well as my past who are no longer with us. It really brings to my mind how blessed my parents were to have someone there to capture these moments for us to share as a family over 40 years later. I have been a professional videographer for over 25 years and have worked for network and public broadcasting. I shoot weddings because I love a true love story and look to capture yours.

Beauty Alchemy is a space where we nourish beauty from within. I love nourishing natural beauty by making someone feel their absolute best, while maintaining a balance of 'just enough' to make you still feel like yourself.

Kara did my hair and makeup for my wedding this past September and she did such an incredible job. After our first phone call, we did a trial run a few months prior to the wedding. Even though I was already very confident in her work from seeing her work on social media, the trial really just solidified everything. She listened to what my vision on how I wanted to look for the wedding, weighed in professional opinions, and absolutely nailed everything at the trial. She gives great recommendations for skin care prep for the big day and gave great details for whatever is needed. she was so very helpful! We tweeked some minor things on the wedding day that we both mutually agreed on and the finished look was *chefs kiss*. I truly felt the most beautiful on that day and its all thanks to Kara and her amazing skills. I also had 9 bridesmaids (small number - I know). So Daniela, Kelly, and Laura were also part of the day to help out and they also did such an amazingly beautiful job!!!!!

We had a beautiful wedding at the greenhouse of the Beardsley Zoo. The GlowWild light festival in the evening simply added to the magic of the event. The coordinators were wonderful in helping us set up and organize everything. If I had one piece of constructive feedback, it would just be that the head coordinator, Lindsay, was sometimes tricky to get in contact with via telephone for things like making our deposit and final payment for the venue.

Couldn’t have asked for anything more. There is amazing value in Bank Street for a wedding. From the wedding planner (who we loved working with) to all the details she helped to plan. We had some specific ideas and everything came to reality. Our night was perfect & our guests would also say the same. Thank you to everyone at Bank Street who made it so special.

Working with the team at the Ethan Allen hotel was so easy. They made our special day as stress free as possible. Joseph was so responsive and helped with all of my questions throughout the process from start to finish. Minnie also was so great with getting the hotel room block set. The banquet manager Greg made everything run smoothly the day of. The space really transformed for our wedding and was so affordable for amazing quality. Food also was delish! Our photographer was also able to get some really beautiful photos inside and outside of the hotel for some really unique shots that we love! The Ethan Allen is your one place for everything !!
