Reese Dunne Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Derby, CT

I am passionate about love, all types, all stories. It is my purpose to capture intimate moments of human existence through the lens of my camera. I am honored to get to live these special moments with all of my clients. Since starting wedding photography full-time 5 years ago, I’ve worked with countless couples to capture their proposals, engagements, weddings and elopements. My goal with every session or event is to leave with casually constructed as well as charming candid photos of my clients and to form a lifelong friendship along the way. Let’s talk!

Awarded Best of Zola
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Reese for 3 different photo shoots! First, Reese was hired as our surprise photographer when my (then boyfriend) proposed to me on Shelter Island. Reese did an absolutely amazing job hiding out until the moment struck, and I didn’t realize she was even there capturing each precious moment until she finally popped out with the most genuine excitement! She made that day even more special, and having her take our photos for the next hour after saying “yes” was the perfect way to celebrate. We immediately hired her to shoot our engagement session to compile photos for our save the dates, invitations, and wedding website. She traveled into Manhattan for us and created the most fairytale and dreamlike photo shoot all around the most picturesque places in Central Park! Of course, Reese was also our wedding photographer and we can’t imagine that day without her. She is so creative, full of fun energy, thoughtful, organized, timely, and above all talented! Each and every photo she’s taken is instantly our favorite and we have already locked her down for another photo shoot for our anniversary. Shooting with Reese is like shooting with your best friend, and as soon as you meet her she becomes just that :).

  • Serves Derby, CT

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!

  • Serves Derby, CT

I am a photographer and storyteller. For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by stories and traditions. I am passionate about documenting real human connections and I love learning all the meanings behind details at weddings and celebrations. When I’m not photographing, I can be found spending time with family and friends, exploring new places, and craving tacos. I love meeting new people, making new friends, and connecting with my clients. I can’t wait to get to know you, so let’s talk!

I fell in love with Beth's portfolio immediately after browsing through 30+ photographer's websites. Her style is very natural, romantic, and full of attention to details. She's always communicative throughout the process. On our wedding day she really made us feel at ease and our photos are so genuine and fun! We planned a fun entrance that didn't completely go according to plan, but Beth stayed calm and helped make it happen. Her quick turn-around also way exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much Beth!

We cannot say enough great things about Angelica and her team! We are one of those awkward people that don't take many photos, but thanks to our engagement session and our wedding photos, along with Angelica's coaching, we looked great in our photos and always had a blast in our photo shoots! Our wedding and engagement photos are amazing. When we think we were feeling awkward, our photos just show us in-love and having fun. There are many romantic photos that cater to my personality, and my husband loves the editorial look of many shots. Angelica is worth saving up and booking. We are glad our friend recommended her. Thank you Angelica! Everyone, just book her! You will not regret it!

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!

Brooke Seminick Photography

  • Starts at $2,000

Photos of the intangible: from moments of stillness to bursts of joy. What does love look like? A client once told me that I captured things in their wedding photos that until then they had only ever felt. I saw this as the ultimate compliment. My goal in every session is to do just that: Turn an intangible feeling into a tangible image that will make your heart soar every time you see it. But what does love look like?

From the moment we connected with Brooke, we knew she would be the perfect photographer to capture our special day. Her communication style is fast, effective, and clear, putting us at ease every step of the way. The quality of Brooke's work is truly incredible - her natural, breathtaking photos effortlessly capture the emotions and beauty of our love. Brooke made us feel incredibly comfortable, especially as an LGBTQIA couple, and she was always prepared with creative pose ideas, constantly trying new things to get the perfect shot. Looking at our photos brings us right back to that moment in time and the wave of emotions we felt - Brooke's talent for naturally showcasing the beauty of our love is unparalleled. We are beyond thrilled with the photos from our wedding day and could not recommend Brooke Seminick Photography more highly.

I look forward to capturing your moments and celebrating your stories through my lens.

Lauren was an amazing wedding photographer! When I told her I wanted to take pictures at a second location she went on her own time to scope out the scenery and lighting. Her calm demeanor really put us at ease in front of the camera. She got us our photos back so fast and she even photoshopped out my bra strap. I would highly recommend Lauren and will definitely use her again for our next special event.

There are not enough words to describe the role Meg played in our day. My FIANCÉE hired Meg to secretly follow us around Fenway Park to capture our engagement. She came fully dressed in her tourist wear with her sister, and kept just enough distance to take the best secret pictures, while being completely incognito. We have the best memories of our best day. 85 of the greatest pictures we’ll ever have. We’re so grateful for your talent, Meg. 10/10 recommend!

I am a self-proclaimed nerd and total goofball who is always up for an adventure, especially if it means going to the beach. I love to travel. I have been blessed to find “home” on three different continents, and I speak fluent English, Spanish and Portuguese. My husband Mike, sons Javi & Ro, baby Soleil and pup Tag are my greatest motivation. They simultaneously drive me crazy and keep me grounded. The love, strength and energy I get from them shapes my perspective on the world, and is something that I want to share with you. In addition to all that, I happen to be one of the luckiest people in the world – I love my job!

The moment we got engaged , we were already thinking of pictures because we love Fall and wanted all the foliage! We had seen Bridget’s work and knew without a doubt we wanted her to be the one to capture our special moment! We told Bridget what we were looking for in our pictures and a little about us and the places she recommended could not have been more perfect. We knew we would have forever memories and beautiful pictures as a product from our wonderful photography session. Bridget brings humor, light, and positivity to her work which makes having hundreds of pictures taken of you a little less awkward! We knew we would be happy with our pictures, but what we received was 100X more amazing than we could have imagined. Bridget is truly a talented photographer, capturing the most beautiful angles and colors and we can’t wait to have her with us on our wedding day and any future picture sessions!

I’m Lizzie, a wedding & engagement photographer in New York and New Jersey. For more than a decade, I’ve been capturing life's great moments. On wedding days, I am known for my happy and relaxed presence, making sure you’re on time and smiling throughout your whole day.

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.

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.

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. Send me a message, I'd love to chat with you about your wedding vision.

I’ve worked with Mark for several weddings and I recommend him highly. As a makeup artist I remember those fellow vendors that made my job easier, but most importantly, the day smoother and more fun for those getting married! He is friendly, calm, professional, unobtrusive and makes everyone feel at ease. I have heard from those that hired him how wonderful he was. He is confident in his craft and with people. It feels like he genuinely likes people and what he does. When I see his work, the colors are as vibrant as they were in real life and my makeup on clients is not “washed out”. In addition to his positive demeanor that makes him a pleasure to have around, and the makeup looking beautiful in his photos, I believe his photography style captures the spirit of the day and brings people closer to reliving the excitement and happiness of such a beautiful life event.

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

I am the one behind the camera. The one guiding you every step of the way, and giving you direction, but mostly I’m there to capture your love and to tell your story. Essentially it’s all about you… your style, your vision. It’s the in-betweens, the messy, the real, the bursts of laughter, the tears… that’s the stuff that I have a true love for. Photography is genuinely my passion. My goal is to tell your love story and get to know you and document your special day.

Mary is amazing!! She captured our wedding day so perfectly. We had never had professional photos taken before and were a little nervous about being in front of the camera. Mary eased our worries and even offered an engagement shoot to get us comfortable with the process. Her ideas are amazing and every photo captures us so well. We will have her beautiful work hanging up in our home for many years to come. Choosing West and Spring Photography to be a part of our special day was one the best wedding decision we made! We hope to use Mary for all of our future milestones as well!

Debbie-Jean was an absolute pleasure to work with. We had never worked with a professional photographer before and Debbie-Jean immediately made us feel at ease during our wedding and after the ceremony. 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.

We’re Erin and Peter and we started this company in 2012. Since then we’ve quit our jobs and photographed 275+ weddings all over the east coast (but we’re willing to travel anywhere!) and we couldn’t love it more! Our photography style is cozy, natural and organic, and we love to focus on the in-between moments and the genuine emotions. We don’t pose people but instead direct them to do things that will bring out their real personalities and reactions which help us to get the most authentic photos.

TLDR: Book them now!! We knew Erin & Peter from my sister's wedding, and we were in love with how natural their photos looked and how easy they were to work with. For our own wedding, we were so lucky to book them! They were the most intuitive people we worked with all day, picking up on all of the day's emotions and logistics flawlessly while helping us arrange ourselves for the photos we knew we would cherish for a lifetime. They even helped arrange my dress and veil, and never flinched in our muggy, buggy atmosphere. They were fun, funny, helpful, and in short, a dream to work with. Their talent is superb - we can't recommend them highly enough!

I did not not grow up with a camera in my hand knowing I wanted to be a photographer. I started with photography by photographing Punk/Hardcore bands but eventually stopped photographing those shows because I didn't want my camera gear to get broken by someone stagediving. Being apart of that music scene help me cultivate friendships with people all over the world, and gave me lots of travel opportunities. Those experiences carried over into weddings helping me understand real documentary style moments and being comfortable surrounded by new people.

Yaritza was amazing to work with! She was the best we could have asked for. So nice and considerate and just perfect for our wedding!

Lee was probably the best hire for my wedding day, and he had some awesome competition! He was receptive to ideas and made all of the photos I wanted happen while also knowing what shots to get that we didn’t think of. I was also incredibly pleasantly surprised when he gave me well over the promised 20-30 sneak peeks way before the one week that was promised in his contract. There were so many amazing shots included in the sneak peeks, we can’t pick a favorite and cannot wait to see the rest!
