WOW. I would give 10 stars if I could!! Karen and SKBT were absolutely AMAZING!!! They created an entirely gluten and nut free menu for our wedding day! Not only was the food absolutely amazing (that's not just our opinion - all of our guests raved about the food), the entire team was amazing. They made sure my husband and I had enough to eat and brought us water and drinks throughout the night. They were so lovely to work with and Karen was especially kind, flexible, and understanding with every curveball our venue threw at us. Our experience was absolutely amazing and I would recommend SKBT to anyone!! We love you guys so much!!

Shukhrat Kamalov Photography 

5.0

Southington, CT
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Serves Darien, CT

Hey there, I’m Shukhrat, a proud husband, a father and an artist. My love for photography started about fifteen years ago with photojournalism. Today, I continue to utilize my skills in capturing beautiful wedding and portrait moments that evoke the same emotions as the real moment. My photography style is diverse and has been refined over the years to showcase my creative vision. I am all about creating stunning, timeless artwork that truly captures the essence of a moment in true to life colors.

Shukhrat and his wife Rachel just shot our June 8th wedding and we couldn't be happier. They were amazing to work with and the photos are phenomenal! About the pictures: Shukhrat is versatile and very skilled. When we took our engagement photos he provided us with various styles of photos and editing, and then used our feedback to guide the photos he took at our wedding. He is also flexible. We got married in a city park and there were wayyyy more people in the park than we were expecting at 6:00pm at night. Without missing any of the candid details or true-to-life colors that we wanted, Shukhrat was able to frame the photos and/or alter the lighting so that the park goers were barely visible in the background. Both Shukhrat and Rachel are also very skilled at giving direction when needed, but letting you do your own thing the rest of the time. Neither my husband nor I have a lot of experience in front of a camera—they gave us enough direction to feel confident, without making us feel stifled or overly posed. We wanted photos that felt organic and genuine, and they were really able to capture that. Working with Shukhrat and Rachel: The two of them were a dream to work with. Incredibly professional--very communicative, punctual, quick turnaround time on photos. And they are also just lovely people. You spend so much time on your wedding day with your photographers, it's really important to feel comfortable with them, and we certainly did. They brought both a fun, but calming energy, easing our pre-wedding jitters before the ceremony, and leaning into the excitement as the night went on. Although we hardly know them, they felt like friends. We are so glad we booked Shukhrat for our wedding!

After that, our team took creative control and when I tell you my guests did not sit down for even a second!! Dinner was being served and they had to make an announcement for everyone to sit. So glad we went with them and they truly made our wedding the BEST NIGHT EVER!

Milford, CT
  • Photographer

  • Serves Darien, CT

Hi I'm Jackie, and I literally love my job! I’m a New England-based photographer for the last 18 years. I have to admit though, I love taking this one woman show on the road and travel makes me the happiest. I have been lucky enough to shoot destination weddings in England, Iceland, and Alaska. I would describe my photography style as very laid back and natural. The little in between moments make for the best photos, and I’m not about capturing awkward prom poses and forced smiles. I want the real stuff - the stuff that’ll make you laugh till your cheeks hurt and will make your heart beat faster.

What else can I say? Awesome awesome photographer. Kept everyone at ease, took wonderful photos, everyone loved her, she kept my wife calm (big plus!), and you can tell she absolutely loves what she does which is refreshing. Would really recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer and piece of mind for your wedding day.

Whether it is at city hall, on a mountain, at a park, on a beach or a wedding venue – your celebration will be captured true to how it felt. Your day, your way.

Awarded Best of Zola
BOOK BRITT! She is a phenomenal photographer and an equally amazing human. I must have reached out to 30 photographers during my initial search, and she stuck out to me right away. Britt is so easy to talk to, provides honest advice on all aspects of the wedding planning process, and was so professional the day of our wedding. She took charge to make sure everyone was where we needed to be, but she also kept such a calm demeanor the entire time. And her photos? Incredible. I told her initially that I wanted photos that made me remember what I was feeling when the picture was taken, and she 100% delivered. I can’t believe how lucky we are that these photos get to stay with us for the rest of our lives. You absolutely should book Britt Hill Photo; you won’t be disappointed.

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!

Moment capturing in all its beauty.

Hi, I’m Nicole (she/her) - a Rhode Island-based wedding photographer.

I reside in Jersey City, New Jersey, serving New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and beyond. I grew up surrounded by family photos. My parents had a professional photography business, Infinity Photography, back in the days of film. My friend asked me to do her senior portraits, so I started my photography business after my parent's business was closed for nearly 20 years. Fun fact, I chose "Grey" because I'm a nerd, and I love Jean Grey - she's my fave X-men. Also, my name is hard to spell, especially when you hear it. It's like "Leah" with a "Tuh."

TALIYA WAS INCREDIBLE! WE COULDN’T HAVE HAD A BETTER PHOTOGRAPHER. SHE DID BOTH OUR ENGAGEMENT AND WEDDING. WE GOT OUR WEDDING PHOTOS BACK RECENTLY AND WERE ABSOLUTELY THRILLED! SHE MET WITH US BEFORE THE ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS LAST YEAR SO THAT SHE COULD GET TO KNOW US AND LEARN MORE ABOUT WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR IN OUR PHOTOS. SHE WAS SO NICE AND FUN TO TALK TO AND VERY HELPFUL WHEN WE MADE LAST MINUTE CHANGES TO OUR WEDDING. I LOVE HER PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE AND LOOK FORWARD TO RECOMMENDING HER TO FRIENDS WHEN THEY GET ENGAGED!

As a child all, I can remember was carrying around one of those Fujifilm cameras and taking photos of family and friends. I always really liked taking photos and having those memories to look back on. Fast forward to 2017, I decided to take my hobby of photography seriously. I learned the ins and outs of photography, learned how to run a successful business, and learned the proper camera settings all on my own. Here I am years later running my business full time and I love what I do. I live and breathe photography. I know this is what I am meant to be doing.

We loved Sheila! She was so much fun and our pictures came out perfect!!

I met Jamie while he was DJing at a venue in Manhattan many moons ago. I was immediately pleased with the music he chose and went up to the booth and we got to talking about music and art. He was so easy going and truly in tune with the beat of the venue. We kept in touch and I then went to several more of his venues where he was DJing with friends and also with my (now) husband. When we decided to get married and keep it really small our one must-have was excellent music because we love dancing but are not fans of standard wedding DJ music. I immediately contacted Jamie and on short notice he was able to schedule a meeting with us to discuss our needs. Jamie came prepared with a list of questions and helped us work through the different moods we wanted to set and organized the music choices. We gave him some ideas and he did the legwork of deciding what specific songs would lead into each of the unique parts of a wedding and reception (dancing, eating, more dancing, only the young people dancing, etc.). To this day my husband and I talk about how much fun we had at our wedding and how we were really able to make every piece of it ours - right down to the music that was not pulled off some Billboard chart but that truly reflected us and the people in our lives. In fact Jamie was so great the venue asked if he would be willing to come back and DJ some of their future events :)

We could not recommend Emily's Catering Group more! Our wedding was August 25, 2018 at South Farms in Morris, CT. People say the food at your wedding is one of the most important and memorial parts of your day and it's true! People are still raving about the food they had at our wedding till this day and the fantastic service by the ECG's team! From the very first point of contact Rick and his team were extremely attentive. Cheryl would answer our emails within 24 hours (which for a bride planning a wedding is SO impressive!) The tasting we had was intimate and Rick walked us through the process of what our guests experience would be like the day of our wedding. The passed hors d'oeuvres were never ending during cocktail hour-- our guests we're SO impressed and FULL of delicious tasting food they were wondering how they would be able to eat during dinner. Rick and his team brought my charcuterie table dreams come to life! There was specific staff members from the ECG's team that were in charge of basically following us around during our event to make sure we had all the food we ever wanted and a drink was always full in our hands. It was so refreshing to feel so well taken care of on our special day. We are so happy we chose Emily's Catering Group for our wedding day and we continue to use them to cater all of our events.

Awarded Best of Zola
Business Time didn’t ask us to write a review, but we’re so excited to write one and want everyone considering booking them to know how amazing they are (understatement). They’re not a typical wedding band, and we knew their style and songs were the vibe we wanted. Easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We had planned a 200 person wedding but had to pivot to 25 because of COVID. Mark and the guys were the kindest humans alive, accommodating us and being flexible with every phone call and change in plans. They never badgered us about making decisions, were super responsive, and went with the flow. We looked forward to every call with Mark. They made it so easy and it was one less thing for us to stress over during an already emotional year of planning. From the cocktail music to dinner music to the main performance, they were a huge reason the wedding was so fun and memorable. In fact, my husband and I (and our guests!) begged them to stay an hour past their scheduled stopping time - we were willing to pay whatever they wanted they were so good!! We just didn’t want the night to end. (For those wondering, they so kindly did and it was the best money we ever spent!) I literally lost half my voice that night and left the dance floor *maybe* once. Even days later all our guests are still raving about how amazing Business Time was. We legit would get married again just to have them perform again. SO FUN!!! Honestly more fun than a lot of concerts we’ve been to, and not just saying that because it was our wedding. Book them now before they get famous and on the cover of Rolling Stone! Thank you Business Time - your kindness and willingness to go the extra mile could make me cry (and actually has). You’ve now got the biggest fans from Chicago!! Anne & Johnny

Working with Lizzie through the entire process, from shopping for a photographer, booking, engagement shoot, planning, day of and photo delivery was the smoothest process imaginable. My husband and I felt as if we were chatting with a friend every conversation, meeting and event we spent with Lizzie. To put it plainly, she is built for this business, in and out. Our engagement photos and wedding photos were all beyond stunning. We received sneak peak photos within days of both of our engagement shoot and wedding. The sneak peak wedding photos were received NEXT DAY! Our full wedding album came one month and one day later. Lizzie had the pleasure of photographing us when it was 20 degrees or less during our engagement shoot and torrential downpours our wedding day. The photos capture only our love and the best moments of our life, you would never even know the elements were less than cooperative. As mentioned previously, due to the weather on our wedding day 99% of our photos had to be fully indoors. Every single photos was even better than we could imagine. We were spoiled with being able to get a few awesome stunning outdoor shots when the rain broke for a little bit during our reception. Lizzie came with two additional photographers day off, Jacky and Hannah, that worked seamlessly with her to help towards our stunning lifelong memories. If you want to add a vendor to your wedding team that will ensure you have the day of your dreams to look back on forever, run don’t walk to book Lizzie.

I believe every couple has a unique story to tell, and I'm dedicated to creating stunning and timeless images that reflect your personalities and love for each other. Let's work together to make your wedding photography dreams a reality!"

Sean is an exceptional wedding photographer! My husband and I hired him for our June 2023 wedding and were absolutely blown away by his talent and professionalism. We used him for our engagement photos and for our wedding day, and could not have been happier with the outcomes. He captured all of the emotions of the day and I know we will cherish his photos for a lifetime. Two things that set Sean apart from other photographers, in my opinion: 1.) he is literally the kindest guy. My husband and I felt so at ease around him, something that I think is critical for your wedding. And, 2.) he is the master of photojournalism. The last thing I wanted on my wedding was to have to spend it all cheesing and posing in front of a camera. Of course, we did the family photos before the ceremony, but from then on out, Sean blended in with the whole event and captured all of the big and little moments flawlessly. It was so much fun going through all the candid moments Sean captured and reliving the night again once we got our photos back (he also got all of our photos back to us SO quickly). We wholeheartedly would recommend Sean to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. He truly is the best!

Believe it our not music was the MOST important thing to me as a bride. Ive had the privilege of working with Atmosphere Productions for many years now as I am a wedding photographer myself. One thing I always knew was, when I’d be working with Sam as a vendor, it would be a stress-free, well coordinated and energetic wedding. His pure love for music is infectious and even on the days when I was exhausted from working for 12 hours, you’d always catch me out on the dance floor if he was the dj. So when I choose him for my own wedding, it felt like a no-brainer. One thing I made clear up front is that a lot of our music might not be typical and that we wanted the music to literally be the soundtrack to the day through our eyes. Music has been a BIG part of our relationship and we wanted that to be part of our wedding just as much. When I worried that my choices in music might be too obscure or not even available- Sam assured me he had everything we choose and more. He understood the “feeling,” we wanted and simply took our suggestions and filled the rest with his picks which we loved since he is the expert! The preparation prior to the wedding was what surprised me the most. Being a wedding photographer I had NO idea what was involved for the DJ. This was very eye opening and Sam took the time to sporadically check in, throughly go through each step of the day and easily accommodated our not-so-traditional families. He asked questions and mapped things out so that by the time the day came I KNEW Sam had everything he needed and even when a couple things changed that day he took care of it like a rockstar. All the care, time and energy Sam provided for our day made him the best choice and his rates match his quality ten times over. Thank you so much Sam for sharing your talent with us and being part of the best day of our lives!

Hello hello! My name is Marie and I am the owner and photographer for Wild Elegance. We are a brand for adventurers, for lovers of life, and genuine people who love those little moments between the moments in life and seek out truth over perfection. Your marriage is unique because of the relationships you have with the people you choose to celebrate with. Spending my day with you and your closest family and friends brings me such joy, and creating art out of some of the best moments of your life is something I am truly honored to be a part of for so many.

Knowing how much of a financial investment a wedding photographer was going to be, I did not take my decision lightly. I reached out to several companies and had several questions when determining who would be the right fit. And I have to say, Marie was by far the most understanding and compassionate during that process. While many photographers seemed annoyed by the (many) questions I would ask before booking, Marie was patient and very thoughtful with her responses -- she even took time to arrange a phone call with me while traveling! And during that phone call, she made sure I didn't feel rushed and that she answered all questions I had fully, it truly felt like I was talking to a friend. That was when I made the decision to book with Marie. Beyond that, when booking the session for our Engagement photos, she brought several creative and adventurous ideas to the table and had the PERFECT locations to take us to. We had a blast together. I would recommend Marie to anyone looking for a photographer who is friendly, compassionate, accommodating and just a joy to be around.

Art and storytelling is my passion when it comes to photography, but I'm also all about capturing raw real emotions, candid moments, and photojournalism. Aside from photographing your day, I also help with finding wedding vendors & venues, or location scouting and lodging if you're eloping. I want your wedding/elopement process to be as stress free as possible! Whether it's your wedding day, elopement, or another special occasion, I'll work closely with you to bring your vision to life.

I have worked with Krystalle many times over the last few years and I cannot say enough good things about her. She is truly skilled in what she does. She captures images in a way most photographers don't know how; finding the raw beauty and creating art in everyday moments. She is always a pleasure to work with, fun, down to earth, and very easy to connect with!

The word that pops into my head when thinking about Cassandra's work is WOW. She was so professional and easy to work with in the lead-up to the wedding and we were entirely blown away by the final decorations and arrangements the day of. I was having trouble fully describing the general feel that I wanted and she was so helpful in bringing my ideas and images to life. All I did was show her a few photos on Pinterest and describe to her what I was thinking and she fully understood. She described it as a "moody woodland nymph" vibe which was spot on and I referred to it that way afterwards! Her work is of the highest caliber - the centerpieces and accompanying décor, my flower crown and bouquet, the boutonnieres and corsages were all GORGEOUS and made our day so special.

Hey friends! What is the value of a photograph? Well, if it’s art, then its value is determined by the status and popularity of the artist, in most cases anyway. If it’s that one moment at your wedding when your fiancé reads your love note for the first time, sheds that one tear they swore wouldn't happen, then it’s a moment you need captured and archived, because its value is incomprehensible. I’m going to capture that moment and preserve it forever you! Hi! My name is Mark! I'm a wedding photographer in Rhode Island and I'm really excited you're here.

Photographs are forever. A visual reminder of your love, the celebration of the day, and the people surrounding and supporting you in this beautiful union. These are the photos you will be showing your grandchildren, hanging on your wall, and showing off on social media for many anniversaries to come. Photos are timeless.

I have come to realize that the photos of your wedding is a huge part that you really want to invest in, and my husband and I wanted all the right moments captured not only for ourselves to look back on, but for our loved ones to appreciate as well. Those moments that you will have in your wedding (no matter how big or small, possibly due to covid) is something that you don’t want to miss because you might never get that opportunity again. Our photographer Nina was honestly a God sent. She went out of her way to capture the moments that mattered and was very personable and attentive to our needs during this whole experience. That shot that you want, you WILL get if you choose her. Nina helped us tell our wedding story almost poetically. The turn around time was quicker than I expected and I was able to share my beautiful pictures with my loved ones. Ninas professionalism was top tier and the service you get was exceptional, period.

I worked with Virginia for my October 2023 wedding and we also did a hair and makeup trial a few months prior. Virginia was so warm, friendly, and professional and delivered exactly what I asked for! I never wear makeup so I was nervous about wearing wedding makeup and asked her to help me look/feel like myself and she did just that. She took feedback extremely well and incorporated that feedback on the wedding day to help me feel my best! She made me feel so comfortable. My hair was amazing and she ensured my headpiece stayed secure - and it lasted and looked great all night! She did an amazing job with my mom and MOH as well - they both absolutely loved their looks, especially my mom who also doesn’t wear makeup regularly. I didn’t really consider that this is the vendor you spend your whole wedding morning with, which can really affect the energy as you prepare to get married.

She captured to most incredible images of my husband and I that we cherish ad have shared with all of our family who was not with us on that special day. I would highly recommend Debbie-Jean and would absolutely work with her again.

From my first moment as a wedding photographer, I knew I wanted to kick tradition to the curb. I was tried of seeing wedding photography that excluded the communities that I hold closest. I work hard to form a real connection with each of my clients to craft an experience that captures their unique spirit.

There truly aren’t enough good things to say about Ashley!!! From the second we reached out to her about photographing our elopement, her professionalism, communication, and creativity were 10/10. She offered so many great ideas for photo locations (including locations for an included mini engagement photoshoot) and came up with contingency plans for our wedding day that alleviated a lot of stress. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and we loved spending the day (all 12 hours!) with her. The photos turned out better than we could have ever imagined - we really cannot recommend her enough!

My love for photography began over a decade ago when a good friend lent me his camera. I quickly discovered my passion for capturing the beauty of candid moments and the world around me. Outside of photographing couples, I enjoy downhill mountain biking, traveling, nature & landscape photography, hiking, and playing guitar. I live in East Hampton, Connecticut with my beautiful wife (Meg), our two dogs (Tucker & Diamond), and cat (Grace).

Michael was so great to work with from our first contact until the end! Our wedding was 9/1/23 at Harkness Park-Eiola Mansion, Waterford CT. He was so good with our 3 year old son and also corralling our giant family for wedding day photos! He captured clean and beautiful photos for both our engagement session and our wedding day. He was even able to get my husband to smile and loosen up, which is not an easy task! He got our album back to us quickly! I would recommend him to anyone and will be keeping him in mind for future family sessions!

“Photography takes a moment out of life…and holds it still” A small collection of photographers who strive to capture the emotion and energy of life’s significant moments in a sophisticated yet understated light hearted way.

My husband and I cannot thank Hechler Photographers enough for everything. It was such a joy shooting with Julio for our engagement shoot in downtown Manhattan and our Rehearsal Dinner at the Union League Club in NYC, and we loved shooting with Julio, David, and John (the videographer) on our wedding day that took place on May 18, 2024 at the Metropolitan Club in NYC. From the moment we met David (recommended by our amazing planner, Jeff Stillwell of Stillwell Events), we knew it was a wonderful match. David is extremely professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and an amazing listener. When David referenced notes from our very first conversation a year and a half later (just a little under a month from our wedding), I was beyond impressed and truly touched. We greatly appreciate how David, Julio, and John were all able to quickly respond in the moment and pivot as needed, whether it was to ensure my hair could be touched up to stay perfectly in place or that we could have time to relax before key moments (e.g., the ceremony). As an incredibly detail-oriented bride, I am so grateful for all the attention to detail that was demonstrated from the beginning of our wedding day to the end of the evening. David, Julio, and John managed to strike the perfect balance of making their presence known, while blending in perfectly (one of my friends had commented that most photographers & videographers she had seen at weddings were so loud and even disruptive). Not this team!!!! I will also be forever grateful for all the encouragement and helpful tips and pointers/direction that David and Julio provided throughout Friday and Saturday to make sure that everyone looked and felt their best while remaining confident in being themselves. I still have Julio’s voice in my head saying, “Work it!” I am so grateful that David and Julio were able to capture all the photos and videos on my extensive shot list, and then some!! My husband, our families, and I cannot wait to see these photos and videos - if the engagement shoot photos are any indication of what's to come, these photos and videos are going to be absolutely magnificent. David, Arthur, Julio, and Casey, thank you for everything! It has been such a pleasure working with you all. This past weekend felt like heaven on earth, and I’m so glad we chose you all to capture these memories we will cherish forever and ever. -Nicole & Kyle May 18, 2024

I am a traveling freelance makeup artist. Makeup has been my passion for over 10 years and I have been doing makeup professionally for less than a year. Makeup has always helped me feel beautiful, confident, and radiant and it's such a pleasure to be able to do it for others!

I would easily recommend Macy to anyone! She did the most beautiful makeup for myself, my two sisters, and my mother. It was absolutely stunning and lasted all night long! It also showed up beautifully in photos. In addition to being amazing at her craft, Macy is so lovely to work with. She has such a calm and welcoming presence. She makes you feel comfortable, confident, and relaxed on your special day! I could not be more happy with my decision to have her to do my bridal makeup. Thank you, Macy!!️

Azesha is an asset behind the scenes whether collaborating, assisting or working one on one with clients for events. She's equally comfortable fulfilling a supporting role in the makeup department as she is developing looks as an artistic lead. From getting talent camera ready to interpreting art directors' briefs to helping brides aspiring to be the best version of themselves on their wedding day; she brings industry best practices to the job every time.

I worked with Azesha for my wedding in October 2021. She was great to work with, and she put a lot of effort into making everything work with my 10-person wedding party, including finding an additional make-up artist at the last minute after someone bailed, and making sure everyone followed safe covid protocols. She did a beautiful job on my hair and make-up -- it was exactly what I wanted, and it lasted all night! I really loved the natural style of her work, and everyone in my wedding party looked stunning. Would definitely recommend working with Azesha!

My focus is quality at an affordable price. I combine a balance of documentary and cinematic styles to give you a video YOU will be happy with as opposed the best clips from different weddings. I only get 10% upfront and have insurance. My typical price is $800 for 4-5 hours of coverage including a fully edited highlight video and mostly unedited full length version. ceremony and reception. I can also offer you a package deal with a photographer. I find that a 20 min. highlight video is the sweet spot, but can make it any length you want according to your style. Thanks for viewing!

I know Kevin for such a long time. He ha seen one of my greatest videograohers. Always in time and on point when it comes to video editing and recording. Truly recommend his work.
