We laughed pretty much the whole day through and it literally felt like we were working with a friend. On top of all that, the photos that we’ve received so far are absolutely amazing!

I like to think of myself as a lil bit southern, lil bit punk, and a whole lotta rock-n-roll. I’m a PBR lover, hardcore show corner dweller, disco ball queen. You’re going to hear me say, “hell yeah, brother” more than twice, Dale Earnhardt is an icon, and Dolly Parton is royalty. You'll love me if you're a little trashy, always classy, badass, sometimes chic, forever romantic. Unwedding, editorial, nontraditional, offbeat, colorful, joyful, film-inspired, and disco vibes always. If you like, I'll wear a rainbow suit, I'll definitely dance with your mom, and I will always be a champion for you and your lover.

Kathleen is AMAZING. She did our engagement photos and I cannot speak highly enough. She was so cool to work with, had a great eye for location, and was so fantastic with coordinating our forever-awkward selves to get some incredible shots. We both get very anxious on camera but she made the whole experience so safe and welcoming that we ended up having a so much fun. Her communication throughout has been absolute top tier - we knew exactly what to expect every step of the way - and the end result is beyond our wildest dreams. 10/10, cannot recommend her enough and can’t wait to work with her again in the future!

HI there! My name is Natalie and I own Natalie Kathryn Photo! I love having the privilege to capture you on the best day of your life! I absolutely love weddings and being able to be there for every part of your day!

Wedding photos were such an important part in planning my wedding. I wanted to make sure I was investing in something high quality and would match the editing style my husband and I prefer. Natalie and her teams photos are just that. While she was who did all our final edits, she was not able to be present on my wedding day. Instead two girls who she works closely with did my wedding photos. I was a bit nervous about this at first but after working with Natalie I put full trust that her recommendations would not let me down. We are so thrilled with our sneak peaks and are so glad we trusted this team. Everyone was so great in making sure we got the posed photos we wanted but also capturing moments as they happened. Looking forward to receiving our full gallery. If anyone is looking for bright and romantic photos, look no further.

I’m Sabrina, an Austrian-South African photographer living in New York City. I shoot weddings, elopements and engagements — and as an avid traveler, I absolutely love shooting destinations. Raised between South Africa, Austria and Luxembourg, I spent long periods of my youth traveling the world with my mother. I grew up surrounded by the arts and chose photography as my primary creative outlet. I practice photography professionally , as well as continue to document the many people and places from my travels. I love to capture moments and tell stories in a captivating , creative and organic way.

Finding the right photographer can be so nerve wracking, but from the very first conversation with Sabrina, my nerves were put at ease. She understood my vision completely, and the end result was the most dreamy, romantic photos you could possibly imagine! Working with Sabrina is like working with a dear friend. She just GETS you! You will not regret hiring Sabrina, she is a true professional and the real deal. Her work speaks for itself!

Jay Dee Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,800
  • Serves Darien, CT for additional fees

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

tldr: Jessica is amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with her if this is the style of photos you like I had a lot of difficulty picking a photographer as I’m pretty picky with photos. I knew I wanted something bright and light, with kind of a whimsical or ethereal vibe, but it was really hard finding the style until I came across the “fine art” style. Jessica’s name came up while researching this style and I decided to reach out to her among a few other fine art photographers. I definitely hoped talks would go well with Jessica as the others I contacted ended up either not responding or were wildly out of my budget. Pre-Planning: Jessica was wonderful throughout this process. She promptly responded to my emails and answered questions clearly. I never felt like I was left in the dark for any part of the process. When I sent her the timeline of the ceremony/reception, she quickly came up with a timeline to slot in all the photos to be taken ahead of time at the location (We had access to the venue for a little over an hour prior to the ceremony). She also asked for a list of family photos that we wanted to take. This made it very easy at the wedding as she could call out people’s name to make sure everyone that was supposed to be in the pictures, were in the pictures. Jessica also sent over a list of ideas for detail shots and explained she could do this ahead of time. We didn’t want extra pictures of these and decided against it, however, I still thought it was very thoughtful of her to offer. Wedding Day: I loved her energy at the wedding. She was very calm and felt very competent. She directed my husband and I throughout the pictures, showing us poses etc. During family and wedding party photos, even though we had many bodies to fit in the frame in quite a few pictures, she led us through them with ease and the entire experience was very stress free (or as stress free as can be at a wedding lol). The venue was quite dim at specific locations, but the final results did not reflect that at all. The pictures were bright and did not look like they were taken in the dark at all. (This is a little off topic but I loved the little apron with pockets she wore for her equipment. So cute) I’m not sure when Jessica had the time, but there were pictures around the venue which were so beautiful. I definitely feel like the day was captured through the pictures. Post Wedding: Jessica sent us a sneak peak 2 days after the wedding containing 23 pictures. They turned out great and were beautiful. You can see examples on her website so I won’t elaborate, but they really are that good. The full gallery was sent almost a month after the wedding (minus 2 days) with instructions on purchasing prints or an album attached. The full download contained 650ish files, including the sneak peek pictures. Half of which were black and white, so this matched up pretty perfectly with Jessica’s estimation of the amount of photos when we spoke in the pre-planning stage.

  • Solo performer
  • Serves Darien, CT for additional fees

"I am an eclectic wedding violinist based in the Worcester-Boston area of Massachusetts. I perform for wedding ceremonies, cocktail hours, dinner receptions, first dances, and dance receptions. I enjoy learning my clients' favorite songs so that their wedding day feels extra special. I am able to play a variety of different music genres (top 100 hits, music from Bridgerton, hip hop, R&B, EDM, rock, big band, & classical) and can perform on my electric violin with your DJ for your reception. I am able to provide my own Bose sound system which can be battery-operated for outdoor areas."

The Violin Kat was amazing to work with for our wedding. Kat's communication style was efficient, responsive, understanding, and easygoing - she answered all of my questions and updated the song list whenever I changed my mind. The quality of her work was beautiful, graceful, and perfect. Kat sent demos and joined meetings to fully understand our expectations, and she executed the music flawlessly on the day. We would 100% book her again for any future events. I highly recommend The Violin Kat to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable musician to make their special day even more magical.

Rebecca was our wedding photographer at Winbrooke last month and I don’t have the words to say how much I loved working with her! From our first Zoom call to wedding day she stayed in touch just to check in and was happy to give recommendations for other vendors I needed. I knew she was special from our first chat but meeting her in person and spending our special day with her exceeded my expectations. She has such a kind heart and is so passionate about her work and it truly shows. Our sneak peek photos blew me away and I can’t wait to see the rest!

Hi I'm Andrew! I first started filming weddings when my sister got married in 2017. I quickly fell in love with the entire process and getting to know all the couples and their guests. Maybe I'm just a hopeless romantic haha (My guilty pleasure is Hallmark movies, once I walk in the room with it on I have to see how it ends!).

Awarded Best of Zola
We had Magical Multimedia be our videographer for our wedding and my husband and I could not be more impressed! Andrew and his second shooter were very nice and helped make suggestions to create great clips for the film. They captured the key parts of our special day and seamlessly wove it together to create a video that showed the highlights as well as the entirety of our ceremony, first dance, and toasts. Andrew went above and beyond by surprising us with a tablet that was placed in a cover that had our wedding photo on it. Now we can reminisce on our special day any time we want. If you're looking for a videographer, then look no further because this guy is the best!

I'm a bridal makeup artist based in NYC/ Long Island. Makeup Artistry has been my passion for many years and nothing gives me more joy than bringing to life the vision someone has for their special day.

Caitlin did an amazing job. To begin with, she was very sweet, communicative, and helpful in the early part of the process. I do not wear a lot of makeup and don't know much about it, but she guided me through every step, even outlining the sorts of searches I could on Pinterest to find examples I liked. She made me feel confident that she understood what I was comfortable with even though we could not have a pre-bridal appointment due to distance. Then, on day of, Caitlin went above and beyond. She arrived ahead of schedule, brought everything she needed, provided lots of goodies, attention and skincare, and delivered a stellar makeup. To note, it was an insanely hot and humid summer day in New York (91 degrees and 85% humidity). I don't know what magic Caitlin worked on my face, but the makeup stayed on ALL DAY AND NIGHT. It was so astounding that almost every single guest commented on it (everyone else was sweating their faces off—sorry!). I looked like an elevated version of myself and was so so happy with it. Thank you for being such a key part of a great day, Caitlin!

Our promise is that your guests of all generations will remember your wedding not only for the love that filled the room, but also for the music that elevated their experience into something that they will appreciate forever.

Wedding 11.10.2024 Where do we even begin?! Phil at All Generations was fantastic to work with leading up to our wedding, and we didn’t think it could get any better—until the big day! Our MC and DJ were absolutely the best we’ve ever seen at a wedding. While we might be a bit biased, our guests confirmed it, saying they’d "never seen such an empty room of tables because everyone was on the dance floor!" Guests couldn’t stop raving about how they couldn’t leave the dance floor and had endless compliments for both the DJ and MC. We had Mike as our MC, and while we don’t recall the DJ's name, he was phenomenal. I know some reviews mentioned DJs not playing requested songs, and while a few of our requests weren’t played, we’re actually so thankful for that. After all, we hired a DJ to read the room, not just follow a playlist—and he nailed it! Every song he played was exactly what the moment called for, keeping the energy high and the floor packed all night long. Every single track was a hit, and there wasn’t one moment where people stopped dancing. Truly, every song was a banger! We couldn’t be happier with the incredible vibe they created. They were all a huge part of what made our special day so memorable.

Not many words can sum up the powerhouse of talent that encompasses MikeMusic: musician, producer, but most importantly a deejay that transcends genres. As a purveyor of eclectic beats and soul tapping sounds, he instinctively knows the perfect soundtrack for any celebration.

Dawn completes our vision by editing photos & making each image sing, then designs a fine art book to encapsulate the each story.

Hands down the most professional and creative photographers ever. I would only refer them as they are masters behind the lens.

I was born off the coast of Portugal, in the Azores Islands and raised in Cartaxo, close to Lisbon. Portugal was my home until the age of 19. I then moved to the US and have resided in Boston ever since. I enjoy the gorgeous seasons that New England offers an explorer like myself. My career started out in Graphic Design but at some point, photography found a place in my heart and soul, and I have been wandering the globe with my camera always in hand. Over the past decade I have been photographing weddings and events all over the country.

We were so lucky to have chosen to work with Pedro and Bindi for our wedding day! He was a true professional from start to finish - in the planning leading up to the wedding, Pedro was organized and prompt with communications. All of our details were loaded in his portal and it was easy to track and made us feel confident and comfortable we would have the experience & photos we wanted to capture the moment! He was a great presence to have with us on our wedding day and we can't imagine having done it with anyone else. Cannot recommend Pedro any more highly!!

Hey hey! I'm Abby: youngest of four sisters, cat mom, self-certified Malbec connoisseur, lucky wife to a goofy Puerto Rican man named Mike, and most recently the newly-minted mom to our chubby cheeked little one, Nico. I love to meet new people, try delicious new restaurants, dance whenever there is music playing, and I've been known to dabble in karaoke. In 2014 I took a giant leap out of the comfort of my 9-5 to start my business, leaving the world of copywriting and fashion behind to pursue my long-time love of photography. It has truly been one of the best decisions I ever made! I absolutely love what I do!

Awarded Best of Zola
Abby is amazing. She’s easy to communicate with, friendly, and professional. Her work is outstanding and always what is expected. I would recommend her to anyone.

Hi friend! Grace here. I’m from a small town in south-central PA, where I was raised on the great outdoors, drive-in movies, & board games. My husband is my best friend & we have an adorable toddler keeping us on our toes! We're all about Jesus, our people, traveling, coffee shops & our two Aussies. I’m a big advocate of seeing new places, deep talks under the stars & being near the mountains any chance I can get. I believe that marriage begins with a promise & a lifetime of memories follow after that. My clients are my friends & I feel privileged to begin this adventure with you!

I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She was sooo easy to work with. Her visions aligned with mine, she was efficient and so sweet. I truly trusted her with everything in me and she did not disappoint! She traveled across the country for us and was a 10/10 human being and professional photographer. You need her!!

If your wedding is out of state I would love to come to you. I have always found joy in taking photos.

Real moments & love stories. Queer/LBGTQ+ always Hi, I'm Sasha (she/her or they/them). I am friendly, easy going, and real happy to join you on your wedding day. It’s your wedding. Be comfortable. Enjoy it. I pay attention, I anticipate, and I work hard to get your real, genuine moments and emotion.

I feel so passionately about recommending Sasha I don't even know where to begin! My fiancee and I, as well as several members of our wedding party, have not stopped talking about how great she was since our wedding a couple weeks ago. Sasha did our photos for both our engagement shoot and our wedding. When we started wedding planning, it was important to us to hire vendors who not only aligned with a product we wanted and our price range, but also who were kind, good people we'd want to spend our wedding day with. Some vendors fell short, but Sasha made up for it and then some. First of all, Sasha is EXTREMELY talented. She really captures your essence in her work and several people commented to me that they could "feel" our wedding and emotions through our photos. Her photos are not cheesy or contrived, which was something we knew we wanted when hiring a photographer, and her values aligned with what we were looking for. She is very talented at working with lighting in special and artistic ways. She will "yes and" every single one of your ideas and suggestions for your photos, and really listens to your requests and preferences. Beyond all of this, even if I hated the photos (which is far from the case, I love them so much), I would hire her again and again. Your photographer is someone you spend a LOT of time with on your wedding day. Having someone with good, calm, kind energy who you vibe with is really important. I had a somewhat rough start to my day, getting a bit overwhelmed and behind schedule. Sasha was exactly the person I needed to be with to help ground and calm the energy of everything when it otherwise felt chaotic. She is cool as a cucumber under pressure, kind to every single person she meets, carries such a positive energy, and is a true professional at pivoting/troubleshooting when something goes wrong. She's also a quiet leader who will help keep your wedding running smoothly, pay attention to your timeline, etc. We had a giant wedding party and she somehow corralled people very quickly to get all the group shots we requested, so that I never had to think about it. On the wedding day, as others have said, she was somehow everywhere, but in the least obstructive way possible. I didn't even notice her during the reception or ceremony yet somehow she captured amazing pictures from lots of amazing angles. Leading up to the wedding, Sasha was a delight to work with. She was VERY responsive and willing to meet with us both over the phone and in person. She took the time to do a walk-through of our venue with us, which put me at ease to scope out where we'd take pictures. She even hopped on a Zoom call with us while on her vacation the week before our wedding. Last but not least, Sasha got us our engagement pictures AND our wedding gallery preview much faster than anticipated! If I sound slightly crazed in my obsession for Sasha, it's because I am lol. Sasha's beautiful spirit matches her the high level of talent and artistry in her work. This is your sign to hire her!

TDR photography (Traci) was nothing short of a perfect photographer. Not only was her work absolutely beautiful, but her heart and passion for photography and her clients made our wedding experience even more special having her as our photographer. Not only was she our photographer, but I can also say she is a friend. She cares deeply for her clients and their wants/needs, and goes above and beyond to assure the wedding day is nothing short of perfect. She does far more than take pictures, but provides emotional support and is your personal cheerleader throughout the wedding planning process. I can't recommend Traci enough and will use her as our lifetime photographer, as well as a friend. Her work was beautiful and she had my photos back to me within three weeks. She also provided sneak peeks within 24 hours. She captured every picture on my shot list and more. I recommend Traci to any bride who wants a passionate photographer who does everything she can to make a bride's day seamless. She even brings her clients their favorite drinks and snacks, she is simply the best!

Hey Friend! Photography is my absolute passion and it shines through my images!!! I live for the RAW moments... the true emotion of the day. Tears that fall during a first look, the last hug with your loved ones before you walk down the aisle, and the ear to ear smiles once you've said "I Do!" I blend candid and guided shots, giving you the freedom to move about the day to enjoy it, while never having the thought of “what should I be doing” running through your mind! You'll be able to look back on your wedding photos 40 years from now and FEEL the emotions you felt that day. That's my promise to you!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Lauren for our wedding, and I truly can’t recommend her enough! From the moment we first met her, it was clear that she wasn’t just passionate about photography—she genuinely cared about capturing the essence of our day in the most beautiful, authentic way possible. Lauren has an extraordinary eye for detail. She doesn’t just take pictures; she captures moments—the spontaneous smiles, the glances exchanged, the raw emotions. From the very beginning, she made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera—something neither of us was used to. She took the time to understand our style and personalities, and tailored her approach to fit that perfectly. On the day of the wedding, her calm and positive energy was a grounding presence amid all the excitement. Lauren made the entire process feel seamless and enjoyable, from our engagement shoot to the wedding day and beyond. She’s a true artist, and her work will be cherished by us for years to come. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who is not only professional but will go above and beyond to capture your most important moments, look no further than Lauren. She exceeded every expectation we had, and we are forever grateful! Thank you, Lauren, for giving us memories that will last a lifetime!
