Every course was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully executed. The ingredients tasted fresh, the flavors were balanced and elevated, and everything was served at the perfect temperature — something that’s incredibly hard to achieve at scale. From the cocktail hour through dinner, there wasn’t a single dish that didn’t impress. What stood out most was the consistency. Whether you were one of the first tables served or the last, the quality never dipped. That level of precision and care is rare in catering, and it did not go unnoticed by our guests — many of whom are serious food lovers and couldn’t stop talking about the meal.

I specialize in capturing your story with an attentive eye and artistic precision. From weddings and engagements to intimate family moments, I transform fleeting experiences into timeless images that reflect emotion and narrative. Each photo is crafted to showcase your personality, connections, and the essence of the occasion, with a commitment to delivering results that match your vision.

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked George to capture our wedding day at an outdoor venue in northern MA. As a photographer myself I have high standards when it comes to photos, so I was very selective when making my choice. But I'm happy to report that we made a great choice with George as his work is top notch. Before the wedding we had 2 phone calls to plan out the many scenes we'd want him to capture. We also shared some light guidance on editing style, which he happily incorporated. On the day of the wedding George arrived promptly (early even, which was good) despite the fact he was driving many hours from CT. George did a great job making people feel comfortable in front of the camera. He seemed very experienced as throughout the day he seamlessly transitioned from the foreground to the background as needed. He was never in the way, but always nearby and ready to jump in and capture whatever was happening. He also captured a variety of types of shots, from the wide, establishing shots to the perfectly composed closeups of intimate moments - with lots of extra detail shots and plenty of candids too. For the ceremony in particular, he displayed his great eye and quick reaction time to document every moment and every angle, including crowd reactions. He came well prepared too with 2 Sony mirrorless cameras and a large off-camera flash to ensure even lighting. From our 8-hour shoot he provided over 1,400 fully edited photos (each 61MP) via a Google Drive download link. We were extremely please with the quality and speed of our portfolio (fully delivered within 2 weeks). On top of that, George happily provided me with the full edited portfolio in TIFF file format, per my request. The file sizes are much larger so I gave him a 512GB USB drive which he loaded and shipped back to me. I really can't say enough good things about George. So just book him now and I know you'll be pleased with the results!

I don’t think I could say enough wonderful things about Candlewood Inn and their team. Simply put our day was perfection. Krista and her team made sure everything was as we wanted it and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Our bridal attendants Mary and Leslie were the true fairy godmothers of the day making sure myself (the bride) and the rest of our bridal party had everything they needed at all time. The communication throughout the process coming up to the wedding and on the day was absolutely flawless. We felt truly cared for which can be hard to find with the amount of weddings that are done. The venue itself was beautiful, you cant quite beat the views on that lake, and so that alone makes it so special. The food was spectacular, us and our guests could not get over how delicious everything was. The staff throughout the night was so professional and kind, and made sure our guests were cared for as well. We loved having the time alone right after the ceremony with all of the appetizers we had picked just to have a bite to eat and take a moment to reflect on being married! It was so special and I attribute that to the work the Candlewood team put in. I would recommend this venue to everyone and anyone that just wants a beautifully run day. I  already cant wait for one of our friends to get married here too!

He expertly controlled the crowd with some of the best mixes I've ever heard at a wedding! My husband and I did not want to leave the dance floor!

After booking our wedding at Audrey's Farmhouse, finding a wedding planner was the next decision to make. As an event planner myself, I knew how important it was to find someone I could trust with our wedding. After our first call with Mia, we knew she was the one. She was extremely kind and someone who genuinely understood the venue and the details that mattered most to us. The planning process and tools that she provided were exceptional - clear, organized, and thoughtfully designed to keep everything on track. It was clear she had worked with Audrey's many times and knew exactly what needed to happen in order to have the perfect wedding day. We especially appreciated all of the tips that Mia provided on the Merry by Mia Instagram account. She truly provided the information we needed, when we needed it. Once we were paired with Lindsey the planning felt effortless. She was calm, cool and collected every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, Lindsey truly stepped up. She managed every little hiccup while staying professional and taking care of things so we didn't have to stress about them. Her ability to adapt quickly and find solutions without sacrificing quality or style was a game changer. She gave us total peace of mind which is exactly what we needed. We can confidently say having a wedding planner is an absolute must (even if you do it for a living!) and the Merry by Mia team is truly the best.

I chose him because I knew he would be the perfect person for such a special occasion, and he exceeded every expectation. On a snowy day, during a storm, Vinny never hesitated for a second. Despite the freezing cold, he dedicated hours with us in the park, making sure every detail was captured beautifully. The photos turned out extraordinary, truly beyond what we could have imagined. What impressed me the most was his care and dedication. My fiancée and I are not used to posing for photos, but Vinny guided us patiently and naturally through every step, making us feel comfortable and confident. His attention to detail, creativity, and professionalism transformed that day into timeless memories. I am deeply grateful for what he did for us and recommend his services without hesitation.

First of all - the end product was just beautiful. Everything from the bridal bouquet to the ceremony flowers to the table styling was exquisite and super unique. Shannon did a great job incorporating my favorite color (yellow) and a whimsical, organic wildness into the design exactly as I had hoped. From our first meeting to the written proposal, Shannon interpreted my thoughts and ideas exactly. I was so impressed that she took my ramblings and half ideas and pulled them together into what I was seeing in my head. Shannon’s GORGEOUS color palette informed the entire wedding design and gave me a jumping off point for invitations, bridesmaid dresses, other decor, etc. Unfortunately, the process of working with Shannon was a bit challenging. She struggled with nailing down details: incorrect number of tables, inconsistent accounting of candles/bud vases, etc. It took a number of incorrect proposal drafts until we got it right - just weeks before the wedding. We were honestly quite disappointed by Shannon’s flexibility and communication. She self-describes as being highly collaborative, but that was not our experience. First, as beer nerds, having hops in the design was super important to us, and while she flagged early on it could be an issue to source real ones, we discussed using fake. While we all agreed that she shouldn’t use fake hops if they looked bad, we were sad to see on the day of that they didn’t make it into the design. It would have been nice to have heard a heads up from her that she didn’t plan to use them - even if it was just a brief mention on the day-of. Second, when our cake plans fell through at the last minute, we asked Shannon if she could possibly supply a few flowers for our small 6” cutting cake. She told us she would try, but later we heard from the bakery that she had given them a flat no. She never communicated her decision to us. Thankfully, the bakery pulled something together for us (shout out to Zest Pastry!). Third, the Monday before the wedding, Shannon sent an alarming email with the subject line “Head Advisory, Oh No!”, asking us what our plan was. Getting any email titled “Oh No” isn’t fun to receive less than a week before your wedding. Further, as a trusted wedding vendor, we would hope that she would have plans for weather or unexpected events rather than looking to us during a very stressful period. Lastly, (and most disappointingly) despite having a run of day schedule, Shannon was nowhere to be found when it was time to put on boutonnieres and corsages. Our photographers and party thankfully jumped in to help to avoid major delays to portraits (shout out to Katie Slater!). Fundamentally, the product Shannon provided was beyond compare - everything was beautiful. That said, the communication, coordination, and organization were lacking from our experience.

While I love beautifully decorated weddings, I’m equally passionate about photographing celebrations that are simple, imperfect, and real.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Callie as our photographer for both our civil ceremony and our wedding in Hawaii, and we couldn’t be happier. For the civil ceremony, we thought the photos were already stunning—she captured everything beautifully, even though it was just a more low-key setting at our hotel and City Hall. But it was really at our Hawaii wedding that Callie’s talent shone through. She was there from the morning prep to the evening party, and she turned every moment into something that felt like a piece of a movie. The atmosphere, the storytelling, and the almost cinematic feel of her photos were just on another level. Honestly, we got so many compliments from friends who saw the photos and asked us who our photographer was. In short, we can’t recommend Callie highly enough. She made our special days look and feel magical, and we’re incredibly grateful.

Bridal Beauty Bliss was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day! They were great at communicating throughout the process, and equally accommodating when I decided to change my hair to a different style after my trial. Ela and Katya did fantastic hair and makeup for my bridesmaids, MIL, and mom. My mom, who doesn't always love how her hair looks when she gets it done, was blown away by the updo Ela did, which made me so happy. Their services are very well-priced, and you can be sure you'll be in good hands if you book them! On the day of the wedding, their calm personalities and caring approach kept us feeling stress-free and looking our absolute best. We couldn't have asked for a better beauty team to be a part of our special day!

My name is Lindsay Fondo and I am a floral designer and photographer based in CT, by way of NY. Serving both + NJ. I have a strong appreciation for flowers and photo’s, for their ability to say how we really feel, and how when you look at them you get all of the feel good vibes. I absolutely love working with my clients to bring their vision to life/ help flesh out a vision they didn’t even know was there.

Working with Lindsay was the best. She perfectly captured the vision we had for our wedding, bringing it to life with stunning arrangements that felt both whimsical and timeless. The colors were vibrant and beautifully coordinated, and every detail was thoughtfully crafted to reflect the spirit of our day. From the bouquets to the centerpieces, her work was nothing short of breathtaking. She truly has a gift for making floral dreams a reality, and we couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out!
