Christopher Ginn Studios 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
Townsend, DE
  • Photographer
  • Starts at $3,500

I bought my first DSLR camera in 2004 when my now wife, Tracey, and I were taking a cruise to Alaska. For a monumental trip like this, I HAD to get an amazing camera. Those 8.2 megapixels with nine four points had me in LOVE. Ever since then, the ability of a photograph to be able to freeze time; freeze an emotion; freeze a memory has kept me addicted. Whether it’s getting a great angle, finding light that tells the story, or capturing the true personality of someone; it all brings a smile to my face and hopefully yours!

“Christopher Ginn Studios was a pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. From our initial inquiry, their communication was quick, simple, and eager to help us plan the perfect photography coverage for our special day. On the wedding day, their detailed schedule and professional approach ensured everything ran smoothly, allowing us to fully enjoy the moment. The photos they captured beautifully showcase the personalities of my husband, our friends, and our family - we are thrilled with the results. I would highly recommend Christopher Ginn Studios to any couple looking for an experienced, responsive, and talented wedding photography team.”

Premium cannoli, hand-piped by The Don himself! We make cannoli you can't refuse, featuring handmade shells imported from Sicily and fresh cannoli cream prepared for the day of your event. Our lavish cannoli concierge service is perfect for weddings, backyard birthdays, holiday parties, corporate events, and more!

“Such a Fun Addition to Our Wedding!! My mom surprise booked Don Cannoli for our wedding and I am SO happy she did because WOW, our guests absolutely loved him!! He walked around the reception dancing, handing out cannolis, and just making everyone happy. It was so fun watching people react to him, and he brought such a great energy to the night. It wasn’t just dessert, it was genuinely part of the entertainment! And most importantly... the cannolis were SOOOOO GOOD. We didn’t have a traditional wedding cake, so having Don Cannoli was such a perfect and unique way to add another dessert option while also giving our guests a fun experience. I would 100% recommend him, especially if you’re like us and want something a little different from the typical wedding dessert or even a a fun addition to your wedding! Delicious cannolis AND an entertaining guy walking around your reception handing them out?? What more could you want!!! So AWESOME”

Hi, I am Ta'Tra. Most call me Tay, I perform all my own stunts, I believe in the magic of creation and I absolutely love my job! I'm a quiet force on your biggest days capturing and enhancing moments as they unfold. I specialize in portraits, lifestyle photography, and weddings!

Awarded Best of Zola
“Tay is an absolutely phenomenal photographer, and I feel so blessed and honored that we chose her to capture our wedding. From our very first Zoom call, Tay radiated warmth and approachability. She not only listened but genuinely understood my vision and experience—often more than I did, which made me feel so at ease. She became a safe space in the whirlwind of wedding planning, and that sense of trust and comfort was invaluable as we prepared to capture the most important moments of our lives. I was very particular about the photographic style I wanted for our wedding. It was important to me that the images felt natural—like anyone looking at them could feel as though they were right there with us. I also wanted crisp, high-quality photos, and Tay delivered all of that and more. Our wedding photos are absolutely stunning. On the wedding day, Tay and her team were incredible. Tay was like a shadow in the best way possible—always present but never intrusive. There were times I’d think, “Where is she?” only to realize later that she was exactly where she needed to be, capturing every moment flawlessly. At other times, it felt like she and her team were right in the mix, blending in so seamlessly with our family and friends. They made it so easy for Jeff and me to stay in the moment and be fully present throughout the day. The experience and expertise Tay brought to the table were worth every penny. I’m so grateful my sister recommended her to us, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any bride who wants to look back on her wedding day and feel nothing but magic. One thing I do wish we had done—and something I highly recommend to any future bride and groom—is taking the engagement photo shoot. We booked Tay about five or six months before our wedding but had already done an engagement shoot with a friend, so we kept putting it off until it never happened. Looking back, I realize how valuable that experience would’ve been. It would’ve helped us prepare better for the family photo sessions and be more conscious of certain poses, like during our first kiss. While our photos are still breathtaking, I believe the engagement shoot would’ve given us that extra edge of confidence and familiarity, which is one of its biggest benefits.”

She paid attention to our family dynamics, and everyone felt comfortable with her. I have so many photos to choose from, and now our house is filled with beautiful portraits that look just as crisp enlarged as they do on the computer screen.

“Choosing to have our wedding at the Hilton was the best decision we could have made. With their all-inclusive packages, it takes the stress out of planning a big event. Katie the wedding coordinator, was so professional throughout the entire process. She always responded in a timely manner and answered all of my questions leading up to the event which made me feel at ease. What else can I say other than we had the best night of our lives! Decor was put together beautifully, food was great, and service was wonderful. Guests had many positive things to say and I will be recommending this location to others in the future. Thank you again to Katie and the staff at the Hilton/Christiana!”
