We’re Memory Lane Studios - Luxury Wedding Photographers & Filmmakers based in CT, serving couples across the New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts & New England. We specialize in Fine Art Photography & Cinematic Story Telling for Western, Indian, South Asian & Fusion Weddings. We are fun, easy going and deeply intentional about the way we work.

“Working with Tharun and his entire photography team was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding reception. From the very beginning, they were incredibly professional, creative, and genuinely invested in making every moment unforgettable. They went above and beyond our expectations in every possible way. The quality of the photos and videos was simply phenomenal. Every shot captured the emotions, joy, and beauty of our celebration so perfectly that we get to relive those memories every time we look at them. But what truly blew us away were the edits they were absolutely fire! The cinematic quality, attention to detail, colors, transitions, and storytelling were on another level. The biggest testament to their talent was the response we received online. Every Instagram post created performed incredibly well, with friends, family, and even people we didn’t know commenting on how stunning the content looked. The visuals were so captivating that our posts went viral, and we continue to receive compliments weeks later. Beyond their exceptional talent, Tharun and his team were warm, patient, organized, and an absolute pleasure to work with. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured natural, candid moments that we’ll treasure for a lifetime. If you’re looking for a photography and videography team that combines creativity, professionalism, and world-class editing, look no further than Tharun and his team. They don’t just capture memories they create timeless works of art. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for the very best.”

Rachel Kimberly Photography LLC

  • Serves West Hartford, CT

Hey there! I'm Rachel! I'm a Connecticut-based wedding photographer, but I absolutely adore traveling all over the globe for photography. My creative approach to weddings includes visual artistry, passionate skill, and a heck of a good time! After all, this is the most amazing day of your life. So let's make it freakin' amazing! My love for people is the fire behind my love for photography and portraits, whether it's a wedding day, maternity photos, or family portraits. Because I come from a family with seven children, I bring the "everyone is family" vibe to each of my sessions, which allows all of my clients to be relaxed.

“I cannot recommend Rachel enough. After spending a significant amount of time identifying what style of photography we preferred, Rachel’s photography came out well ahead of everyone else’s. Working with her was just as exceptional. Throughout the process, Rachel provided guidance and was a valuable resource given her knowledge as someone who has participated in many weddings. Our engagement shoot was the first proof that we had definitely chosen right. While we got lucky on the timing of the shoot (we nailed peak cherry blossom bloom), she truly transformed an average city park into an amazing setting. She was easy to get along with and took the stress out of the photoshoot process. She guided us through the park and through different poses seamlessly. When we got the photos back, far quicker than expected, we, and our families, were blown away by them. There was fantastic range too, from romantic to moody to playful. On the wedding day, she kept us on task while blending into the background. She made sure we kept moving through our shot list and captured everything, but during the formalities I forgot she was even there. We worked with a videographer she was not familiar with, but they collaborated effectively sharing shot ideas with each other without stepping on the other’s toes. Rachel and her second photographer did an excellent job of catching the little moments that we wanted to see but weren’t always present for. As with the engagement shoot, the final results were amazing. We can’t stop looking at all of them, from the funny candids to formal shots that make us feel like we could be on the cover of a magazine!”

Since we started working with him for our engagement pictures up to the wedding and after, he has been great at communication and very professional. He went above and beyond by helping us create a timeline for our wedding because didn’t know how weddings usually go. He worked so hard on the day of our wedding to get the best shots, and was very kind and helped us a lot with organizing order of events. He had great ideas for poses and was very mindful to get all the pictures we wanted with family members and bridal party. And even better than all of this, when we got the pictures, they came out amazing!! It’s very clear that he put a lot of hard work into making them look incredible.

From the start, Johnny was incredibly flexible and made us feel completely at ease on the day of our wedding. Despite us giving him no direction, he managed to capture beautiful, candid shots that we absolutely adore. If you have a specific vision for your wedding photos, I highly recommend sharing it with him—he’s so talented and I’m confident he’ll bring your ideas to life.

“We were so blessed with fantastic vendors on our day, but Mary truly helped us bring the whole thing together. From the moment we chatted on the phone, we knew we were in great hands!! With her quote, she sent over a proposed timeline for the day and recommendations of timing / number of photographers-- we used this to quite literally plan our whole day timeline around, and we were never running low on time; everything felt according to plan and never rushed. (Family photos were SO smooth!) Her level of detail is so special, and we loved the photos captured of all the hard work we put in on the decorations, venue, etc. as well as the organic human moments filled with emotion, silliness and beyond! She makes you feel so comfortable and ease immediately, which helped bring out the sweetness and silliness in our couples photos. We also got the BEST reception photos and loved how much happened on the dance floor or at cocktail hour that we didn't even see happen (because, you know, you're a bit busy seeing everyone)! Could not have asked for a better photographer, and we're so happy we had her for our day.”

Black Connecticut wedding photographer, purveyor of the artistically-engineered photography experience. That's a crafty way of saying, I'm a computer nerd who's pretty good at photography and believes in great service! Digital image gallery, print rights, and beautiful, physical prints included with every package. My work focuses on telling my couples’ wedding day love stories through the pictures I capture. Artwork is the goal, whether it’s a highly-stylized posed photo or a moment where a loved one is emoting.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We found Terrence very early on in our wedding process. His gallery had some of the most beautiful photos we had ever seen; some were dramatic, which is what my husband loves, others were soft, warm, and candid, which were my favorites. To find a photographer that could fit both of our styles was so exciting. Terrence’s package was over our budget, in part because we were marrying in NY, so would have to pay a travel fee. I was convinced I could find someone within budget. I searched and agonized for an additional two months. Finally, my now-husband convinced me that the photos would be the one thing from the day we would get to keep forever and we sprang for Terrence and let me tell you, both of us have agreed the extra cost was more then justified. In high heat and humidity and looming storms, Terrence did everything he could to keep us on-schedule and to get incredible photos at a venue he had never even been to. We just received our sneak peak gallery and all of us are in awe of the photos he captured. We look forward to working with Terrence in the future for other big life moments, and you should absolutely book him too - engagement shoot or wedding, Terrence will capture your moment perfectly!”

Savage Wedding Co. is for couples who want their wedding to feel like themselves — not a performance, not a production, and not something they have to manage all day. I work with a balance of structure and flexibility: enough direction to keep things moving, and enough space for moments to unfold without forcing them. I don’t chase perfection or try to smooth out every edge. Some moments are quiet. Some are awkward. Some don’t fit neatly into a highlight reel — and that’s usually where the honest stuff lives. I don’t rush past those moments or reshape them to look like something else. I let things be.

I shot my first wedding in 2004, and from that moment on, I was hooked! It's an honor to witness and capture such an important moment in the lives of my couples. Before specializing in weddings, I focused on fine art and night photography. I earned a BFA degree in studio art from the University of Notre Dame (Go Irish!), and a MFA degree in imaging arts/photography from Rochester Institute of Technology. I taught black and white, digital, alternative process and studio photography at the high school, university and adult education levels. I love both the planned events and the unintentional, quiet moments that make a wedding unique!

“Kristin was absolutely fabulous to work with! We were a little nervous at first about having just one photographer at our wedding (trying to save some money) but Kristin put all our fears at ease. She was organized, prompt, professional, and above all, very kind. She took great care of myself and my husband. For two awkward people who typically don't photograph well, she made us feel relaxed and like rock stars who had been posing for years. Because of that, her resulting pictures are stunning!!! My guests remarked frequently on just how impressed how Kristin so unobtrusively managed to capture everything. I could not recommend her enough and we were so grateful to have her for our special day. The photographs she took will be treasured for a long time.”

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

“Lexi did a wonderful job capturing my husband and I’s wedding day! We couldn’t be more grateful for all the amazing photos she took for us. We will cherish them forever! Lexi is a very skilled photographer who pays close attention to detail. Her calm & caring personality was also very comforting for the both of us. Highly recommend L& L photography!”

We had three photoshoots with them in total, and they were able to beautifully document all the unique and meaningful moments, creating incredible memories that we will cherish forever. Pamela and Junior are so talented and have such wonderful personalities; we felt like we were working with friends rather than just vendors. We cannot recommend J&P Visuals Photography highly enough!”

“Melissa and her team are fabulous! She was probably one of the best vendors for my wedding in terms of communication and reliability. She made me feel so comfortable during the first meeting for the engagement photo shoot and then the wedding day was just perfect. She completely listened to me throughout the entire process and followed through with everything. I feel like this was the best decision. Worth every penny! It's just a bonus that her personality is so fun and awesome as well. Thank You Melissa!!!”

HELLO! My name is Sarah Barbagallo. I am a 27-year-old wife and mama to 2 sons. I have been behind the lens for as long as I can remember. Photography started out as a hobby for me, but the last 5 years has become my full-time business and I haven't looked back since!​

“Sarah B Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day! From our very first interaction, Sarah was friendly, professional, and prompt in all her communications. On the day of our wedding, she seamlessly captured all the special moments we wanted - from the moody, fall-inspired portraits to the candid shots of our guests having a blast. The sneak peek exceeded our expectations, perfectly reflecting the vibe we were going for. We especially appreciated that Sarah took the initiative to photograph our wedding decor, even though we had forgotten to ask her to do so. She also had the BEST photo ideas, like the one of us kissing beneath my veil which ended up being my favorite photo! Her attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile made her great value for the fair pricing. We would highly recommend Sarah B Photography to any couple looking for a talented, personable photographer to document their big day.”

Passionate about storytelling and as a wedding photographer with a deep love for capturing love stories in their most authentic and beautiful moments. For me, weddings aren’t just about posed smiles—they’re about the raw emotions, the stolen glances, and the little details that make each couple’s day uniquely theirs.

“Will Castellanos Photography was a pleasure to work with for our engagement shoot . From the very beginning, their communication was clear, professional and motivating. They had a positive attitude throughout the entire process and delivered high quality work that exceeded our expectations. The engagement photo shoot went very smoothly, and the final photos came out amazing - the lighting and poses were perfect. We couldn't be happier with the quality of their work and would highly recommend Will Castellanos Photography to any couple planning their wedding.”
