Krutick Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Thomaston, CT

Hi, I’m Richard, a wedding photographer based in the Hudson Valley. My passion is finding the beauty in the simplest moments and capturing them in a way that feels raw, real, and full of life. As a candid, photojournalist photographer, I’m all about ditching stiff poses to focus on the relationships, the laughs, and the genuine emotions that tell your distinct story. I aim to capture the little details and authentic moments that make your day uniquely yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
Richard Krutick is special. A special talent as well as a special man. He captured it! The day after our wedding he sent me a teaser gallery of what was to come. I was blown away. When planning my wedding the photographer was the most critical to me -I was picky. When I saw his work he turned my entire way of looking at my wedding around. Richard and I had over an hour-long conversation and we clicked. I, having a creative director background and working with photographers all my career, was thrilled because we spoke the same language. I wanted honest, documentary-style moments captured without noticing the presence of the photographer. He was there when you needed him and you liked him. My guests were saying what a warm and great guy he is. He got their personalities, each and every one of them. He looks at everything with a special eye. Right at the time of my outdoor wedding with the most beautiful view and lush floral arbor, it poured and didn't stop. Gravel walkways turning into mud, no bride or groom wants to see. He just grabbed the moments and ran with them. Pivoting, he captured the most creative and editorial images I could ever dream of. He took the storm and made it beautiful. I hope I will have another event, moment, fun-filled party, or cherished time that he can again capture so we can work with him again.

We believe photography provides us the ability to reflect on & relive the emotions & milestones in our lives. We see the hand of God in these cherished moments. We look forward to capturing those beautiful memories in your life. We feel very fortunate to love what we do, be able to do it together and spend so much time with our son. It is because of our amazing clients that we are able to do so and we will never take that for granted.

Awarded Best of Zola
We chose Kindred because they were close to our venue, they were budget friendly for us, and their portfolio was lovely with shots and lighting we really liked. We got lucky that they were available for our wedding even though we were planning a bit more last minute than most (4 months)! We had Ben for our wedding. He was kind and relaxed, lovely to chat and work with on the day and he took some beautiful shots for us. He has a good eye for finding spots with nice lighting especially with sun coming through the trees outside. They over delivered on the quantity of professional edits and captured some really lovely moments. We love so many of the photos he shot and had a hard time deciding which to print as there was a lot to choose from. Overall, definitely recommend Kindred for your wedding! One thing we wish was better was responsiveness and communication. We had a difficult time getting ahold of and making plans ahead of the wedding to talk through the day of details which led to a bit of anxiety and we wish there was more of an opportunity to get specific about the group shots and who was captured in candids since we had such a short window of time with them.

Claudia Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $8,500
  • Serves Thomaston, CT

My work blends an editorial sensibility with a documentary approach. The imagery is composed, detail driven, and lived in, with a strong sense of being inside the moment. I photograph with attention and care so you can feel like your truest self, preserving not only how your day looked but how it actually felt. I am drawn to celebrations where the experience matters just as much as the aesthetics, and where nothing ever feels forced or performed.

Claudia is one of the best photographers I've ever worked with. With an incredible eye for detail, she is amazing at freezing moments in time in the most masterful, artistic way. Her style is gorgeous and truly her own. I've seen firsthand how hard she works for her clients, getting to know them well and giving them a lot of attention and warmth. Claudia is so supportive of other vendors and a great team player and above all, just the most fun, energetic and kind person you'll ever meet. I highly recommend her!

Our experience with Taylor and Yan from Sounds Originals was phenomenal. They went above and beyond to ensure every significant moment was captured with creativity and precision. The end results were nothing short of spectacular. The photos were high-quality, with stunning clarity and perfect lighting. Each shot was framed beautifully and told a story of its own. They were punctual, well-prepared, and adaptable to the changing dynamics of the event. For example, when we were behind our schedule for our couple's picture, Taylor suggested a great idea of finishing our sections during the cocktail time. Taylor's approachable and engaging manner made the photo sessions enjoyable and stress-free for us. She was really helpful with guiding us with posing when we didn't know what to do. The video footage was crystal clear, with smooth transitions and impeccable editing. Overall, I would highly recommend Taylor and Yan from Sounds Originals to anyone in need of an exceptional photographer/videographer. Their passion for their craft is evident in every shot and frame, making them a joy to work with.

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. = )

Christopher was SO much fun to work with throughout the entire process. From the engagement photos, the rehearsal dinner to the wedding itself, Christopher was there finding the best shots.

We already received our preview photos and are truly blown away by how she captured our love & our special day.

I was overwhelmed when navigating how to choose a wedding photographer. I knew I wanted someone whose work accurately reflected the day and the people photographed, what better way than choose someone who had photographed me beautifully at a wedding! Emily was the photographer at my now SIL & BIL’s wedding. I loved her editing style and her speed of getting the right picture. I have never really loved how I look in photos, and I am hardly in front of the camera. At our engagement photoshoot at home, Emily made me feel completely at ease, and really captured great angles and unique ideas! Not only did I love how she photographed me, but I loved that it was honest. Emily shot our welcome party and our wedding. It was like see an old friend! Our guests were in awe of the photos and loved Emily’s personality. It was an absolutely gorgeous day, and possibly the most gorgeous I have ever attended, I am so glad I trusted Emily to capture the memories! What will not be shared on her public gallery are all the photos of our nieces and nephews! Emily photographed my SIL & BIL at our wedding and it was so heart warming and deeply meaningful!

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
Cate was an absolute dream to work with! She captured both our elopement wedding (10 guests at a beachside Airbnb in East Haven in early September) and a 1-hour couples’ photoshoot (early morning at the Yale campus in mid-October 2024). We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Her incredible skill, warm demeanor, and attention to detail truly set her apart. We spoke with many prospective photographers before deciding, but we just couldn’t look away from working with Cate after going through her brilliant portfolio and speaking with her on Zoom. Cate made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She has an amazing ability to put you at ease, making the entire process natural and fun. The photos she took are some of our absolute favorites. We love how she captured our families, wedding ceremony, and couple photos with so much emotion and authenticity! One of the standout things about Cate is how prolific she is. She took and shared a delightfully ridiculous number of photos with us—over 2–3 photos per minute! Every single shot was excellently curated and edited, showcasing her skills as both a photographer and storyteller. Cate went above and beyond, even while balancing personal challenges during her busiest season, to deliver a stunning gallery that exceeded all our expectations. She was also kind and thoughtful in all her communications with us and incredibly generous while photographing us for several minutes after our scheduled time had ended. We wholeheartedly recommend Cate to anyone looking for a wedding or portrait photographer! She is immensely talented, professional, and a joy to work with. We not only found our go-to photographer for all our future needs, but also a kind friend through this process. Thank you, Cate, for capturing the most precious moments of our lives so beautifully—we are so grateful for your skill and compassion!

Hi there! My name is Madison and I am a wedding photographer based in the beautiful seaside town of Newport, Rhode Island. Although I call Newport home, I provide my services to couples throughout the greater New England area and am always willing to travel worldwide for my clients' special days. I have always been passionate about capturing life's most special moments through my camera lens, and there's nothing quite like the magic of a wedding day. I consider it an honor and privilege to document the love story of each unique couple I work with.

Awarded Best of Zola
Madison photographed my destination wedding in Antigua in June of 2024 and I could not have asked for a better photographer! We had a unique request for only candid photos throughout our three nights of events (we wanted the only posed photos to be quick group shots with family and friends right after our ceremony). She was so excited by the idea and over-delivered on all our wishes. She captured so many candid moments of my husband and me, of us celebrating with our dearest friends and family, and special moments of our guests that we hadn't gotten to see. The photos came out so beautifully, it's hard to believe they were truly candid and unplanned. It was such a gift to have these memories preserved; going through our wedding albums was like re-living all three days because she captured us in the middle of the memories as we made them. She has such an incredible talent and ability to capture the essence of each person she photographs. The lighting and aesthetic of the photos was also exactly as I had hoped, and each stage of each event was captured beautifully so that it transports us right back. We also wanted Madison to be a part of our celebration, and every single guest who interacted with her had the most gushing, glowing things to say about how lovely she is. I heard from so many of our guests that they completely forgot she was taking photos - she was so non-intrusive when she was shooting, so she was able to capture actual candid moments without people even realizing she was doing it. Madison was an asset and gift in every way during our celebrations, and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a photographer. She delivered on every wish we had, and was just such a pleasure to have at our events, lending a calm, sweet, and always helpful presence. She became a part of our friends and family as much as she was our photographer during our wedding. We are so grateful for her and will treasure the stunning photos she took for us forever.

Having worked with Justina before, we were always impressed by her cool, calm, and thorough communication style. Her unique and creative approach to photography perfectly captured the theme and feel of our wedding. Justina was running around during the reception, elusively getting the best candid and detail shots. Her attention to detail was amazing from making sure we got every family photo we had discussed to capturing every special moment at the reception. We were grateful for the time she took to walk through all the details and timeline with us leading up to the big day - it really helped everything run smoothly. Justina's great spirit and ability to make us feel at ease throughout the process resulted in photos that we'll cherish forever.

For over a decade, I’ve photographed weddings with a focus on timeless imagery, genuine emotion, and refined storytelling.

Working with Bryan for our special day was an absolute breeze. He made us feel so comfortable and honored any request we had. Bryan arrived to the getting ready suites on our wedding day with a framed photo of Dan and I from our engagement shoot, which we now have on our nightstand. Bryan is thoughtful, attentive, and truly cares about each couple. Bryan and Blaze were both supportive and efficient throughout the entire day. He even sent our sneak peek photos less than one week after our wedding on 2/1/25! Bryan and his team kept timing on track and helped keep the calm atmosphere throughout the day and night. The photos are absolutely stunning and everything we could have imagined- candid, clear, crisp and fun photos to really capture the energy of the night. We cannot wait for our full album and HIGHLY recommend Bryan and his team for any and all photography needs!
