George was very kind and communicative from the start. He was very flexible in our desire to move to a second location during cocktail hour and made the most of our short time there. He focused on capturing all of the photos we asked for along with really amazing candid shots of guests. He delivered a large amount of photos in short time frame. We can't recommend him enough.

Callie Ying Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (13 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,880
  • Serves Sherman, CT

I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in New York and Connecticut. I capture moments that feel alive—honest, emotional, and deeply meaningful. While I love beautifully decorated weddings, I’m equally passionate about photographing celebrations that are simple, imperfect, and real. Your florals don’t need to be full, and your venue doesn’t need to be luxurious. What matters most is your connection. I’m especially drawn to noticing the most touching moments in any setting—your emotions, your interactions, and the quiet love you share.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am so grateful she was there for my big day—her presence made everything feel effortless and truly special. From the very beginning, she was incredibly thoughtful and professional. Before the shoot, we met to discuss our ideas, and she took the time to truly understand our vision. Not only did she listen attentively, but she also shared her own creative suggestions based on her research, making everything even better than we had imagined. On the day of the shoot, having her there felt like having a trusted guide and a dear friend by my side, capturing beautiful moments in the most natural way. She created such a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere that I never once worried about how the photos would turn out—I simply enjoyed the moment. Her presence on my ceremony day wasn’t just about taking pictures; she played a key role in making sure everything went smoothly. When we received the final photos, my husband and I were beyond thrilled. Each image felt like a window back to that magical day, filled with love and joy. We couldn’t stop looking at them! Her talent, patience, and warmth made this experience truly unforgettable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who can capture not just pictures, but emotions and memories that last a lifetime.

Veronica was a pleasure to work with—especially in the midst of our cancelled wedding due to covid and planning a private elopement. She was quick to respond and more than willing to help make this unplanned day very special. She was flexible about time and place, whatever worked for us! She was upfront about costs and what we could expect in return. She was extremely professional and focused—she made the most of every minute of our time together with no unnecessary small talk (which we appreciated). She scoped out the setting and quickly noticed all of the opportunities for great shots. we saw her visions come true and her photos were absolutely stunning, creative, and top notch quality.

When we are not working we are outdoors or sitting by the fire. We love traveling to places where the earth is at its greatest. Our superpower is that we know what you are thinking. lol. Our style is Honest, Emotional, Intuitive, and Real. We love traveling anywhere in the world, as long as we're together!

I have the unique experience of being a wedding planner that works with JAG Studios and this past year as a client renewing her vows! I can tell you that they are truly gifted artists and are able to read their clients exceptionally well. They create and forge lasting bonds and capture not just the wedding but every single special moment and detail flawlessly. Every client is blown away by their work, and if your looking to have an amazing photo experience, then JAG is who you should go with. As a client, renewing my ten-year anniversary vows, I wanted a photographer that could capture the years and moments that it took myself and my husband to get to this point. To be very honest, I was pretty freaked about having my photos taken; I am a behind the scenes gal! However, both Jacklyn and Chris not only made us 100% relax, but I barely knew they were taking photos, and when all was said and done and the showed us the end product both my husband and I cried for days because it was more beautiful then we could have ever imagined. They captured who we were as a couple, and as individuals and every moment, moments I did not even think about will forever be in an amazing photograph. Jaclyn Watson Events

  • Serves Sherman, CT

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 am your dedicated keeper of memories, specializing in capturing the raw, emotion-filled moments that define your wedding day.

Jeremy and Jennifer are a husband and wife team! With 3:17 Photography you get two photographers to capture your day!! What is better than two people in love capturing your once in a lifetime moments? Your wedding means so much to us and we want to make your day perfect from beginning to end!!! When we started our company we promised that we would always charge what we could of afforded when we got married. We feel as though so many couples are being taken advantage of by other companies.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jennifer and Jeremy are truly the most incredible people you could have by your side on your wedding day. From the very first moment, they made us feel completely at ease, and it quickly became clear that they were so much more than photographers — they were our guides, our support system, and our calm in the chaos. Honestly, without them, so much could have gone differently; they were absolutely priceless and worth every single penny. Their professionalism, kindness, and preparedness are unmatched. From planning to execution, they thought of everything — big and small — and made sure we never had to worry about a thing. On the day itself, I watched them quietly put out fires, organize people, and ensure we had everything we needed — all while capturing the most breathtaking, emotional, and timeless photographs. Every single picture tells a story, and every story is more beautiful than we could have imagined. What really sets Jennifer and Jeremy apart is how deeply they care. We trusted them completely, and that trust was met with nothing but care, attention, and joy. Our family relied on them throughout the day more than anyone else, and they were always there with a steady hand, a kind smile, and an eye for the moments we didn’t even notice. Even with a huge team of vendors around us, they were the ones who made everything feel effortless and truly magical. Hiring Jennifer and Jeremy wasn’t just about photography — it was about having people we could trust completely to capture and protect our memories, to make the day feel seamless, and to give us photos that we will treasure forever. They are extraordinary, both as artists and as human beings, and I cannot recommend them enough. If you’re considering them, do it — they will make your wedding day everything you dreamed of and more.

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. = )

Right from the start Christopher's communication and professionalism was amazing. He was so thoughtful and informative every step of the way. He sent us a questionnaire that really helped lay out what photos we wanted to make things easier leading up to our wedding. 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. From beginning to end, they made every moment of our day special. Christopher and his team are exceptional and will make your wedding day seamless. They were a joy to have as part of our wedding day. We are over the moon with the results and highly recommend Christopher Duggan Photography to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photography experience!

You know that all encompassing feeling when you’re revisiting a vivid memory? You can smell the fresh air, feel the way the sun hits your face just so, hear the voice of the loved one next to you, remember the joke that they delivered and instantly you’re laughing all over again. That magic is what I hope to capture as your photographer. It’s my job to hold those moments in time so that they don’t have to fade. You’ll forever be able to revisit the moment, see the exact way they smiled, revisit that incredible sunset, relive the memory and turn back time.

We honestly feel like we didn’t just find a photographer, but a friend in Jessica! From the very first meeting, she made my fiancée and I feel so comfortable and at ease. Throughout the entire wedding day, she was not only professional, but her warmth and sense of humor really brought everything to life. What really stood out to us was how game she was for every idea we threw her way. We had a blast doing wedding portraits in an arcade, and when we decided to climb into a giant claw machine for a shot, Jessica was all in — no hesitation, just excitement. She was genuinely invested in making our day unforgettable, and it felt like we were having fun with a friend rather than just a photographer. The photos turned out absolutely stunning — capturing both the big emotional moments and all the quirky, fun ones we’ll cherish forever. Our friends and family couldn’t stop raving about how amazing she was! If you're looking for someone who will not only take gorgeous photos but also feel like a part of your celebration, Jessica is the one! We couldn’t be more thankful for everything she did to make our wedding day even more special.

We had changed a few things last minute and Emily was so great with accommodating us.

Cate Barry Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (26 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves Sherman, 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband I decided to elope, planning the whole event in a week. It was important to me to get great photos to share with the friends and family who wouldn't be with us on the day. As soon as I saw Cate Barry's portfolio, especially with the candid photos, I knew that she was the right person to capture the true spirit of the day. Luckily, she was able to squeeze us into her calendar, and our preliminary meetings with Cate were fantastic: she made sure she understood our priorities—super open to who we are and what we care about—and she acted as friend, therapist, and wedding expert in a very frantic time. She even recommended a fantastic officiant who was exactly our speed. On the day, the three of us met up for some outdoor photos before the ceremony, and while I was afraid my husband and I might be awkward or stiff, Cate put us at ease immediately, and we were smiling with natural poses in no time. Then at the venue, Cate both contributed to and captured the joyful, relaxed atmosphere of the day.  We got our photos in record time, and even when we first flicked through the images on my phone over pizza, we could immediately tell Cate had memorialized the magic of the day, from happy tears to spontaneous jumping up and down with our witnesses. It means a lot to have wonderful pictures to share with our loved ones, and we would work with Cate again in a heartbeat.
