K. Engel Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $8,450
  • Serves South Lyme, CT

Born and raised in Maine, I dream of one day retiring there by the sea, like a real life Miss Rumphius. But until then, I live just outside of Boston with my husband and our three cats. I'm married to my high school sweetheart, but we waited more than a decade before saying our own vows. Sometimes (okay, often) I eat cake for breakfast, so you can always count on me to help taste test yours. If I'm not photographing people in love, I'm probably enjoying a glass (bottle) of champagne on the couch or planning my next adventure. I believe everything is better by the ocean and you should never wait to explore the world.

We found Kendra on Instagram (yes, Instagram!) and instantly fell in love with her style. She is so personable and made us feel like ourselves in front of the camera, which included lots of giggles and following us around while we adventured for our engagement shoot. We picked Kendra as our wedding photographer for a lot of reasons, but initially because we loved her natural, bright and romantic aesthetic. As soon as we started working with Kendra, it was like we had been friends for a long time. She made us feel special and knew exactly what to say to capture our emotions and love for one another in the way that we expressed it, which sounds like a no brainer, but it can be challenging to feel "normal" when a new person is in front of you and taking your picture! In addition to being an incredible photographer, we turned to Kendra for her opinion and advice in some of our wedding decisions that we were having trouble making. Kendra gladly and professionally provided us with her input and even sent us some photos of examples of things we were considering that she had previously photographed so we had a visual. On the day of our wedding, from the moment Kendra arrived, she ran the show. I was so excited to see her and felt like she was a wedding guest that had arrived, but even though we developed an excellent rapport, Kendra meant business and was ready to do her job, so she got the ball really rolling. Shortly after her arrival, tension started to grow as we became closer and closer to the time of the ceremony and things didn't go exactly as we had planned them. Kendra had our backs and helped us to solve as many problems as we could, and make the best of the others that we had to move on from. This would be described under going "above and beyond the call of duty"! Kendra was there for us as our incredible photographer, but she wore many hats that contributed to the success of our wedding day. You should select Kendra as your wedding photographer if you want someone who is calm and personable, while delivering natural, bright and romantic photos. We are so grateful to Kendra for our beautiful photos and all of her help in making our day be a success!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I want to start off by saying to those who are unsure about spending the money on a videographer: you’ll never regret having those videos, but you will forever regret NOT having them. Wow — where do I even begin? Working with Armando, Amanda, and The Fourth Film Team has been absolutely phenomenal! They are so kind, patient, and above all, incredibly talented! I spoke with several videographers before hiring The Fourth Film. I was so impressed with the care and time Armando spent speaking with me during our consultation call. I love how he had creative ideas for setting the scene for the video that reflected my own unique relationship with my partner. It felt like a creative collaboration. On the day of the wedding the team was helpful, positive, unobtrusive, and diligent. My partner and I wanted more of a candid Film style. The Fourth Film team absolutely has delivered and totally understood our vision. They fully respected that we did not want to be taken away from the celebration for staged moments. Above all, I’m absolutely amazed at everything I’ve seen so far, and the turnaround time has been so impressive! The Fourth Film’s video editing quality and story telling ability is above and beyond what I hoped for, and their price point is far below what the quality of their work deserves!

Hey friends! What is the value of a photograph? Well, if it’s art, then its value is determined by the status and popularity of the artist, in most cases anyway. If it’s that one moment at your wedding when your fiancé reads your love note for the first time, sheds that one tear they swore wouldn't happen, then it’s a moment you need captured and archived, because its value is incomprehensible. I’m going to capture that moment and preserve it forever you! Hi! My name is Mark! I'm a wedding photographer in Rhode Island and I'm really excited you're here. Send me a message, I'd love to chat with you about your wedding vision.

Relive the moments as you experienced them. When it comes to your wedding, what are you most excited about? The ceremony? Dancing the night away with family and friends? Indulging in the emotion of the day? The photos are important so you can relive each memorable moment. But the moments are only memorable if you take the time to experience them in the first place. This way, you'll not only experience the moments of your wedding day - you'll remember them well. Who better to photograph your experiences than a husband and wife team who understands the importance of this day. And the moments that shape it.

I started photographing weddings in 2017. I originally got my first camera to photograph landscapes- National Parks specifically. But the second the camera was in my hands, I was immediately drawn to photographing connections between people. Since that moment I haven't hesitated while my heart led me in the direction of wedding and elopement photography! I love documenting the in-between, unprompted moments; the subtle way your partner glances over at you with a side smile when you're not paying attention, the groom fiddling with his new ring, and the uncontrollable laughter when you're melting into each other during your couple's photos.

Tammy, there is not enough praise in this world for what you deserve for truly creating the most magical elopement day. From the moment we started talking, Tammy filled our imagination with ideas, plans and picture locations to help make our wedding special. She did not hesitate when we decided to elope in Acadia National Park and sent over research and location ideas of where to hold our ceremony. She was attentive to the details that were most important to us and really allowed us to create our perfect day. Not only did she help plan our elopement day but day of she arrived early and was able to help create the excitement and long lasting memories. With her creative eye, she found the most perfect spot for us to have our first look. With great skill, she professionally moved the wedding party along to be to stay true to the ceremony timeline and the National Park entrance time (which is a feat to coordinate 7 guests, a dog and a bus driver). With not having a wedding planner (or any guest focused on timeline) it was so helpful to have Tammy to take charge and gather the group. Lastly, but certainly not least, she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We dont normally enjoy being the center of attention, she had us move naturally and cued us to be confident in front of the camera. With her upbeat personality and lots of laughs, the pictures captured our excitement and love while we eloped. She didn’t hesitate for a second when we asked for our dog to be in almost every picture us and was able to capture. She read my mind as taking pictures from different angles and of the landscape around us. Thank you Tammy for making our dream surprise elopement a reality! Not only was it the most perfect day, but now we have pictures that capture the emotions and celebration of our wedding!

Working with someone who lives here and knows this areawas very important. Seeing Kris spring into action day of the wedding was wonderful.

Hey! I'm Nina. I'm a pretty energetic and charismatic person that loves love and enjoys life. Documenting through photo is my favorite thing on this planet. I've been a professional photographer since 2016 but really I've been invested in photography since I was 15 years old. My love for documenting moments came from a desire to capture my own life and that of my friends using disposable cameras, flip phone cameras and point and shoot digital cameras on beach trips with friends. I have used writing, art, and photo to document my life and it is an incredibly special thing to be able to share that with my clients.

Nina was a pleasure to work with. We hired her to photograph our wedding in upstate NY and the whole experience was such a pleasure. We are both pretty shy and uncomfortable in front of a camera, and our wedding was as casual as they come, and Nina fit right into that. I feel like I found a best kept photographer secret and am so grateful we chose her!

Hi! My name is Nick. I fell in love with photography as a child through my love for music; I was obsessed with album covers and photos that would draw my eye and immediately tell me a story. I have a passion for art and my way of expressing it has always been through music and photography. I love hanging out with my friends and being social. Going out to dinner, having drinks, and spending time with my family are a few of my favorite things.

We never even looked for another photographer when planning our wedding. We new from the start that we would use Nick Finochio Photography. We had seen his work for many years prior to our wedding and we were in awe at his attention to detail and overall style of photography. When it came time for our wedding, Nick delivered beyond our expectations. His calm manner was exactly what we needed on our big day and he made us and our bridal party feel so at ease in front of the camera.

Couldn’t have been better. We had a destination wedding and Ashley and team agreed to fly down to Aruba to be sure that our pictures would be perfect. They spent 3 days with us and captured every moment. The team came prepared with a drone to capture footage from above while on the beach and went as far as getting into the pool at the end of the night to capture the entire wedding party jumping in. Couldn’t have asked for more. Picture perfect, pun intended.

AMAZING!! Where to even begin- My fiance and I got married this August (2024) and since day one La Mila has been nothing but Professionally Perfect. The food was exquisite, the staff was phenomenal and every moment leading up to the wedding while working with La Mila was smooth and effortless. Though everyone was on par, we do have to give a special shout out to their OG, Sandy - Sandy was the most compassionate, patient, informative saving grace we have ever worked with in our lives. She is such a gift from God- I don't know how we would have done this wedding journey without her. She truly made this experience enjoyable and exciting!! Sandy felt like the sister I never had- guiding and comforting me through every step of the way. If you are looking for a stress-free, flawless wedding you must use La Mila !! We promise you, you will not regret it! -Abby & Amy
