Kimberly Nguyen Photography, LLC

Hartford, CT
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,398
  • Serves Essex, CT

I’m blessed to be turning what started as a small hobby into an incredible journey where I get to capture such intimate moments in couple's lives. I graduated from UConn with a degree in psychology and journalism; both those tracks have only helped me in capturing human emotion through a photojournalist lens. An ambivert, my camera allows me to work where I know I work best, behind-the-scenes, front row at some of the most profound moments in people's lives. In a pinch though, I'll be there carrying the train, making sure you don't get your shoes dirty and helping to support you where I can throughout your wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
Kimberly worked on our wedding as the second photographer and was excellent. She worked closely with my husband and the groomsmen and worked seamlessly with our photographer, Emily. They worked so well together that they made us feel relaxed and at ease on a day that can feel a little stressful. I'm very thankful for the beautiful pictures I have already gotten back and both of their ease to work with. I would highly recommend Kimberly.

I listen to the couples wants and needs to help make their wedding a success. I make sure to give them an experience they will not forget. Ceremony and Cocktail music/ equipment included.

Awarded Best of Zola
Joey G is like my cool uncle except he’s got sick DJ skills. He did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Not only was he professional and organized, but he also brought an incredible energy to our wedding. For the ceremony and cocktail hour, we provided him with a specific music selection, and even though we never rehearsed together, he nailed it perfectly. During the reception, we gave him a playlist, and he struck the perfect balance between sticking to our choices and reading the crowd to keep everyone dancing. One highlight was when Joey G handed the microphone to people in the crowd, turning our reception into an impromptu karaoke party. It was a blast! He was not only fun and engaging but also very attentive to our needs. He asked how to pronounce each name correctly for the toasts, ensuring everything went smoothly. We requested that he not take song requests, and he respected our wishes completely. The sound quality was stellar, and his equipment setup was flawless. Joey G understood our need for clean music as we had many families with young children attending, yet he still kept the atmosphere lively and fun. The dance floor was packed with all 150 guests! Joey G was also a great help with announcements, coordinating toasts, and working with friends and family to announce the newlyweds and photo groups. His flexibility and attention to detail were impressive. Overall, I highly recommend Joey G to any couple looking for an awesome wedding DJ. He provided a questionnaire that made the whole planning process so easy, and his execution was simply fantastic. Joey G truly made our wedding day unforgettable!

Kelsey Haley Media

Belchertown, MA
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,850
  • Serves Essex, CT

I'm a Massachusetts-based wedding photographer. My pronouns are She/Her. I'm just trying to make people feel comfortable in front of a camera. I use a mix of poses and prompts to create natural movement and emotion.

Kelsey did our engagement photos and will do our wedding photos next year. My fiance and I are both self-conscious people and so we were really worried that we would feel uncomfortable in front of the camera and ultimately not like the way we looked in photos. However, Kelsey is such a ray of sunshine and delight to work with that our anxieties quickly melted away. She knew all the spots to take photos and tricks to loosen us up, but more importantly we just felt so comfortable around her! We received our photos quickly and everyone has been in awe of them- they are SO gorgeous. Her online platform is easy to navigate, so downloading photos is easy, and her pricing is extremely reasonable. We are so excited that Kelsey will be photographing our wedding in January, and we would happily work with her over and over again. She is a skilled creative, a savvy business owner, and a very good person.

Sara from Muse Art Co. is a dream for anyone planning any event. Her creative vision is truly incredible, and she did absolutely everything to bring our wedding alive. I was in absolute awe (and tears) when I saw my bouquet on our wedding day, and even more so when I saw our ceremony and reception spaces. I loved that she also repurposed our gorgeous ceremony flowers so they could be enjoyed throughout the night! Sara communicated with me throughout the entire planning process and made sure that we were on the same page. She created a gorgeous mood board to begin the design process with only a few key words. Little did I know, she was going to blow everything that I could have expected out of the water! Sara is a true artist, and has a creative vision unlike anyone I have ever known. Her design has life, movement, love, and she can truly transform a space. Sara is the hardest worker that I have ever met, and she puts her blood, sweat and tears into her work. I could not recommend Sara and Muse Art Co. more. Thank you so much!

I’m absolutely in love with Justina’s work!

I’m so incredibly grateful we had the opportunity to work with her as her photos are stunning! In addition to being incredibly talented, she is also an absolute sweetheart to work with. My husband and I felt like we were just hanging out with a friend during our shoot which ultimately allowed for such natural photos.

Nectar & Vessel

Epping, NH
  • Florist
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Essex, CT

At Nectar & Vessel our ethos is sustainability + bliss-forward designs. We specialize in arrangements that are full of texture, unique and lush. We crave the weirdo flowers, the heirloom varieties and mixing in contrasting natural elements. We don't try to be on-trend, rather we are intuitive with the flower and our clients and let the flower speak to us.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Naomi for our wedding florals was a DREAM and an exceptional experience from start to finish. We cannot recommend her and her team at Nectar and Vessel highly enough to other couples getting married. One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Naomi and her team and giving her complete creative freedom. She took that freedom, and spun floral magic into the most beautifully designed space we have ever seen. Her love for florals, and for creating beautiful moments for others shines in her work - and isn’t that what you want on your wedding day? To be surrounded by love through flowers that all your guests can feel? That’s the magic Naomi brings to weddings that is impossible to replicate. The floral designs and artistry that Naomi and her team created for our day were simply stunning. Beyond being beautiful, they were unique and felt personal to us. It was the talk of the wedding that none of the guests had ever seen a display like the florals at our wedding, and that each tablescape and design felt like a work of art. A few things additional things about working with N&V we’d like to highlight: Design and vision: Naomi not only executed a vision for our wedding florals and design, she shaped it from the very beginning. The proposal powerpoint was a detailed mood board of not only the florals, but the overall vibe and design for the wedding. For the bride or groom, like me, who was overwhelmed with how to make a wedding feel cohesive, personal, and intentionally designed, trust in Naomi to help jump start that process and hire her as one of your early vendors. Flawless logistics and professionalism: Working with N&V was completely stress free because Naomi and her team are true professionals. She was respectful of our budget, had a clear, well-structured contract, and payment through her professional portal was incredibly easy. Everything was delivered, set-up, and cleaned up flawlessly and on-time. Importantly, if there were any issues day-of, we didn’t hear about it or take on any of that stress (though with her careful planning, I bet there weren’t any fires to put out!) While these sound like boring logistics, all of this professional preparation on N&V’s part saved us a ton of time and stress wedding planning. Positivity and good energy: Naomi herself is the warmest and most effusively positive person - that was clear from our very first consultation call with her and was even more true on the day of our wedding. We felt showered in positivity throughout our experience working with her, which is exactly what you want on your big day! We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Nectar and Vessel, and specifically, Naomi and her wonderful team. Hire her early, trust her to work her magic and give her all the creative control, and then watch your wedding venue transform.

We had such an amazing day in Newport, RI getting ready in the Belle Mer bridal suite with Kaydee and Liz. Both ladies were AMAZING and made my bridesmaids and I all look our best for the wedding. For my wedding look I wanted a half-up, halfdown look with natural make-up (but not too natural, if you know what I mean) - and Kaydee absoluetly nailed it. I couldn't have been happier with how everything went.

Omg where do I even begin??! Nicole is a master of her craft. I reached out in December 2022 for my May 5, 2024 wedding and I knew after our first phone call that she was the one I wanted designing my flowers and centerpieces. We instantly clicked and she knew exactly what I was envisioning and how to get us there. All throughout the process she kept me involved and was constantly making sure it’s what I wanted. Even though I knew what colors she was going with I was still left absolutely speechless when my bouquets were delivered to my hotel room the morning of. And when I walked into the venue and saw the centerpieces I was in awe. Like she blew it out of the water. Nicole is one of the most kind hearted, beautiful people I’ve met throughout my whole wedding planning process and even in my life and I’m beyond grateful for her. Thank you Nicole for making our wedding so special and memorable!!

Working with J. Roman was a dream! We won an engagement shoot with J and quickly knew we wanted him as our wedding photographer after an engagement shoot that was so fun! He delivered hundreds of photos that we loved. His range is amazing; from moody and dark, to vintage and chic, to glam and bright, all the versions of photography you crave for your big day, J covers! We were open to J's eye when it came to moments and he worked seamlessly on our big day--him or his team never felt intrusive to a special moment. The raw emotion of the wedding day was captured so beautifully-we get to relive such a momentous day over and over through his art. He was incredibly professional, was very easy to work with and was so helpful in planning. J has delivered amazing results: 2500 photos for our wedding, which we received in exactly 3 weeks. We received the first short video within 4 weeks of the wedding as well for his photography and videography package. So grateful that we booked with J Roman and would recommend his over and over again!

Hey, we are Sofiya & Tim! We use our creative heart and eye for the small details to capture those beautiful, simple moments of your day. Our goal is to let your love tell the story, and to document it like an epic movie. We will laugh with you, cry with you, bust a move on the dance floor with you, and most importantly, cheer you on through the entire day! If you're ready to create beautiful images and memories, let chat!

Sophie was a light during all of our interactions with one another! From the beginning with negotiations, to the final products, she was always attentive and so so easy to work with! When we first reached out, I had a million and one questions (frazzled bride haha) and she was so patient with me! On top of that, she was so accommodating! There were things that I would ask for that she may not have had access to immediately (i.e. a drone, 2nd shooter, etc.) And she would admit to not having these things, but no less than an hour after our correspondence, she would come to me beaming saying "We have a drone now!! We have a second shooter!!" She was always willing to do whatever it took to get the job done, and I absolutely loved that! Her attention to detail during the wedding meant the world to me and my now-husband - he can be a bit shy, but Sophie and her co-shooter Tim were so patient and kind! They got all the shots that we wanted and then some! Our final products were amazing - my favorite part was how receptive Sophie was to feedback! In the end, everything she produced was breathtaking, and boy did we shed a ton of tears while watching! Open and honest throughout the process especially if delays were to be had, we got all of our products in a beyond reasonable time, and now we have a keepsake to remember our wedding for days to come. I cannot recommend Sophie (and Tim!) enough. How lucky we were to have them be a part of our day 3

With over many years of experience for special occasion makeup application, I decided to take it to the next step and specialize in my favorite makeup, bridal glam! My priority is to help people feel confident and beautiful through the power of makeup. When I am not creating looks, I’m either playing with new techniques, exploring the latest trends or spending time with my loved ones.

Being able to have Antonia do my make up was easy and so comfortable. I wasn't prepared with any of my own make up and being a Black Woman I was worried there wouldn't be the right colors. Antonia blended up some foundation and got an exact color match! I also HATE false lashes, BUT she put them on with such ease I couldn't even tell I was wearing them! Professionalism was glamorous just like my make up! Highly recommend and would book again! 100/10

I was so glad to find Teyanna and she has been my saving grace since then. She was on top of everything, super thorough, and always in communication incase I needed anything or had questions. When I did speak directly with vendors each and everyone said she was an absolute doll and a pleasure to work with. She helped me make informed and wise decisions for my wedding and definitely made me feel at ease throughout my wedding planning process. She is so helpful and knowledgeable and I definitely recommend her work to any bride who needs a planner, coordinator, or decor for their wedding. She is a very honest, kind, and patient person and working with her has been such a delight. I've learned so much about the wedding planning process and it's been so fun. Planning a wedding in 6 months seems stressful but, honestly it's been a breeze. Teyanna had taken so much weight off my shoulders and made me feel comfortable entrusting my big day in her hands.

I seriously can’t put into words how amazing she was and cannot recommend her enough. She was great to have around on our wedding day and I am so happy with our photos. The groomsmen didn't have their act together, even though she provides a detailed schedule, and she was totally chill about it and was like no biggie I'll be back in 30. My fiancé commented on how awesome she was (didn't comment on any other vendors) and one of his groomsmen did too (see first pic). This was before we even saw the pics and they turned out better than I could have imagined. At one point I told her I was done taking pics I wanted to go talked to people and dance, so was a little worried if we got enough shots, but was blown away with the results. I also told her I didn't care that much about getting ready pics but wanted a lot of guest candids and she delivered. She also got way more getting ready pics than I even expected. We didn't want to spend money on a second photographer and she was fine with that and got all the pics we wanted on her own. She truly listened to what we wanted and was incredible at communication and organization. On top of that, she is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, and truly a calming presence during all of the chaos on wedding day. I feel sooo lucky we found her.

Becoming a mom has changed me in so many ways, and it's given me a new perspective, especially when it comes to taking photographs. We live in such a fast-paced society focused on Instagram "likes" and trends, that I feel as though we often miss the point of this thing called life. I love capturing the "in-between" moments, and making sure you don't feel rushed on your wedding day. I want to bring back the coffee table photo albums and sharing photos and stories, not scrolling through your socials.

We found our forever photographer. Ashley and I were lucky enough to find Steph when looking for a wedding photographer. Little did we know we would be finding a friend and someone we will ask to take all future photos. Steph instantly won us over with not only her insane photography skills, but her personality. As people that don’t love to be in front of the camera, she made us feel comfortable and able to act like ourselves. We interviewed a handful of photographers, but after one call we knew she was our girl. She showed genuine interest in us as individuals as well as the success of our upcoming wedding. She took time to get to know us and that came out in the photographs. I could probably write at least 6 more paragraphs singing her praise, but to cut it short if you’re looking for a photographer, she’s the one and the only one to consider.

It’s been two days since our wedding, and we have only heard gushing reviews from our guests about Dennis and Rus! The crowd work and interaction, along with their attentiveness to our vision with the evening and their fun personalities truly make for an amazing combination!! We cannot recommend them enough! One thing they did that truly set them above all other DJ’s I’ve experienced is their interaction with all our guests during cocktail hour - it was noted and commented on by almost every guest I spoke to, who found it to be such a great way to get the feel for the evening.

Awarded Best of Zola
Booking Keleigh Michelle Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our 4/27/24 wedding. I remember feeling so overwhelmed with all of the options for photographers. I had no idea what our style was, or what we should look for or prioritize in a photographer. After filling out a million inquiries, Keleigh’s responsiveness and thorough replies was what initially made her stand out to me. She asked the right questions and helped me land on a package that made the most sense for our wedding without pressuring me or upselling me on anything. We were also drawn to her gorgeous gallery- her pictures exude beauty, sophistication, and pure emotion. Keleigh’s professionalism and talent are what sold us on booking with her. From booking to wedding day, working with Keleigh felt like working with a friend. I could text/email her with the silliest questions and know that she would respond, give me the info I needed, and hype me up! We had a beautiful engagement session on the beach, where Keleigh drove almost 2 hours to meet us at a location that had significance for us. She helped us feel comfortable in front of a camera, and delivered the most gorgeous engagement gallery. In preparing for our wedding day, Keleigh sent us a lengthy guide that answered common questions and helped us feel prepared for our big day. We had a call to go over logistics for the day, put together a list of people we wanted to have in portraits, and make a timeline for getting ready photos. Even up until the day before the wedding, Keleigh was able to accommodate details shifting without question. She brought Lindsey Morrissey as a second photographer who was also phenomenal. Leticia, Keleigh’s assistant, took some awesome BTS shots that are such a cool touch to have to look back at memories. On our wedding day, Keleigh commanded the room and got all of our portraits of us with wedding party/family done seemingly effortlessly right after our first look. I was anxious about getting all of these photos done and still having time to reset prior to walking down the aisle. Keleigh made the process so efficient that we finished with more than enough time to return to the bridal suite and hang out with our wedding party before lining up for the ceremony. We were able to sneak away for some more portraits after the ceremony, and had no doubt that we’d gotten all of the formal pictures we wanted in a timely manner while still being able to enjoy our day. Not even 24 hours after our wedding, we got over 50 sneak peeks from our gallery. We CANNOT get over how beautiful they are. We’ve had so many friends and family say that they are some of the best wedding photos they’ve ever seen. We are so thrilled to get our full gallery back and hang our photos in our house, build photo albums for family members, and look back fondly on our wedding day for years to come. Thank you, thank you, thank you Keleigh for capturing our wedding so perfectly and being a friend throughout the entire process. We recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding/event photographer, and hope to work with her again!

A Boutique Creative Agency focused on Flawless Execution, Coordination, and Content Creation for the Modern+Stylish Multicultural Couple. We would love to be a part of your day and ensure you have the wedding of your dreams! Please take a moment to fill out the form so we can learn more about you and your partner for life!!! ​

I first heard about Abibi Bridal when I was assisting my best friend CakedbyMel assemble a wedding cake in New Hampshire in September 2023. Mind you, I was visiting my best friend in Boston for the weekend because it was her birthday. I live in New York, so I took a flight to Boston to spend time with her. My friend was hired to construct the wedding cake by Abibi Bridal because Abibi Bridal was booked as the wedding planner for the wedding. I was observing how Abbe was working with the vendors and the wedding party, and I was instantly impressed. I walked up to Abbe and told her; I am getting married next year, and I am going to book you to plan my wedding. Abbe said of course! I set up my consultation with Abbe and I booked her for her wedding coordination services immediately. I just knew Abbe and her team would execute. From when I booked Abibi Bridal at the beginning of October 2023, up until the day of the wedding, April 25, 2024, Abbe has been a blessing when it came to planning my wedding. Even though she was booked for wedding coordination, Abbe was so helpful, knowledgeable, patient, kind, and just overall amazing throughout the entire process. She knew exactly what vendors would work great with the vision I had. Abbe knows all the best vendors and has great relationships with so many amazing vendors, that you know the vendors will execute not only because they are dedicated to their craft, because of their relationship with Abbe and Abibi Bridal. Now let’s fast forward to the day before the wedding, Abbe and her team came down from Boston, and from the moment Abbe and her team arrived until the end of the wedding the following day, Abbe and her team were all hands on deck! When I say the level of professionalism Abbe and her team had is unmatched compared to other wedding planning teams I heard about. She was a shield from all the stress, questions, unsolicited advice, and energy that was heading my way. Words honestly cannot describe what Abbe and her team did for my wedding. She made everything so seamless and special. My advice to every upcoming bride is to book a wedding planner or wedding coordination because it will make the wedding planning process go so smoothly. I strongly recommend booking Abibi Bridal because everyone deserves a piece of mind when it comes to wedding planning, and that is what you will get when you book with them. I do not only consider Abbe as my wedding planner, I consider her my friend and family because what she did for me and my wedding, I will never forget. Those memories will forever be cherished.

Chrissy and her assistant Lisa were PHENOMENAL. There was tons of communication leading up to our wedding, so Chrissy couldn't have been more organized with who/what/when/where we wanted photos. Chrissy made us feel so comfortable and relaxed on our wedding day because she's so friendly and funny, and she didn't pressure us to do "pose-y" things. The sneak-peek photos came SO quickly, and the rest came shortly after, which we were soooo surprised by. I can't recommend Chrissy Bayless enough.

My husband had ONE request for our wedding day, and it was to have professional barbers come shave him and his friends. Doorbell Barbers was so much more than just a barber – they created an amazing, fun, exciting, atmosphere.

(One clarified that his wedding wouldn’t have “barbers before or anything” because we set a new standard!!!) Oh, they also cleaned up my officiant’s hair before the wedding.

We were so impressed by how quick the photos were delivered! We received a text while on our honeymoon the week after our wedding that our edited photos were done and one week later we received all our pictures!

I did not have a DJ or a Photographer and honestly was considering just something small scale, until I talked to Ed from DJ Double E. I would give them 10 stars out 5. From the minute I talked to Ed it was a breath of fresh air from the million other outrageously priced DJ's. The price is unbeatable but that's not why I would recommend them. They are absolutely phenomenal and made my entire wedding. The music was perfect from ceremony to the last dance. They were so professional, so involved and so fun. We had a daytime (early) wedding. It is so challenging to get people up and have a good time at 12:30 in the afternoon, I was having meltdowns about it, they reassured me but had the entire place up and having fun. You didn't know if it was day or night. They helped us more than the attendants at the venue. Over 100 guests said how amazing they were. The pictures they took could not be any better. Any other DJ who had packages like this (photo booth etc...) were THOUSANDS, yes THOUSANDS, more!!! I really hate to admit but I'm not easily pleased however I would put my name on the line for DJ Double E after how they made my wedding. DJ Double E exceeded all my and my husband's expectations and -consider yourself lucky if you hire them for any event. I'll be calling them again!!!

SGJ Photography

  • Photographer

Growing up in Egypt, near the great Pyramids, has inspired my eyes to capture great moments that last for life time. I am surrounded both by natural beauty and interesting people. I use my camera to document the world and then print images with a focus on the magic I find in daily life. My pictures tell my stories

It was an amazing experience, SGJ photography was super helpful in picking out the perfect place and perfect poses! I loved how all my pictures came out, the edits made all the pictures look so pretty and captured every right moment! I am so glad I was able to have my special moment captured with SGJ. They were professional, punctual, and attentive to our needs and preferences. They took the time to understand our vision for the day and went above and beyond to ensure that it was realized in every photograph.

I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I'm also a musician and I help craft most of the music in the wedding films I create. I love working with couples that have unique personalities and styles. My work resonates the most with who it's made for, and I always keep that audience in mind.

Steve Berkenkemper is not simply a photographer/videographer; he is an artist. When you work with Birchfields you will receive an absolutely stunning, unique, bespoke result that is beyond what you imagined. Steve pours his soul into his work and the work speaks for itself. Each video even has original music! I have known Steve for many years, worked with him professionally, and have hired himself multiple times. Steve is a national leader in the industry, working internationally as well, yet he also dedicates himself to elevating the culture of his local community through his work with historical institutions, the city government, public schools, and helping with The Family Portrait Project. If you are looking for a photographer and/or videographer, stop. Book Birchfields while you can. His artful capturing of your wedding will be a family heirloom.

Brett Alison Photography 

5.0

Newton, NH
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Essex, CT

I’m a New Hampshire wedding photographer, who specializes in candid, natural wedding photography, serving all of New England for over fifteen years. Almost all of my couples come to me saying that they feel weird in front of the camera and worried about how their photos will turn out. But of course they want those gorgeous, Pinterest-worthy shots! My laid-back attitude will help put you at ease, helping your true personalities shine through (with simple and fun guidance for the posed photos). And my quiet and calm nature makes it easy for me to blend into the background, to get tons of candid photos that you will make you laugh and cry.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Brett was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We were looking for casual candids and photos that looked effortless, something we thought we would be difficult to achieve because we are “unphotogenic”. Not only did Brett go above and beyond, we were absolutely astounded by how incredible our photos came out. Previews came the next day and throughout the week after our wedding and we were speechless! Everyone loved our photos, but multiple family members mentioned that the collection perfectly reflected the vibe of the day and setting. We will cherish our wedding photos forever - thank you Brett!!

I'm Charissa owner & lead planner. My doormat says it best, 'running on coffee, wine, and the dog's time', but seriously I start every intro call with the disclaimer that you may hear the barking, snoring, or a squeaky toy in the background. I'm the twenty-something-year-old that's gone from throwing "Weddings" in her neighbor's driveway, to throwing them in some pretty amazing spaces. With over a decade of experience in weddings and corporate events, this isn't my first rodeo. Weddings are sort of my thing!

Awarded Best of Zola
I highly recommend Charissa and her team if you're looking for a wedding coordinator/planner! She is so professional, organized, and just the nicest person ever. We had so many questions and worries but Charissa helped us feel at ease throughout it all. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND on the day of the wedding... literally hauling extra chairs with her throughout the botanic gardens so we could get our photographs!! LOL! You can just tell how much she cares about her clients and we so appreciated the effort. We also had Kevin on her team set-up the decor at the venue and they did an amazing job -- we were blown away when we arrived! We got tons of compliments from our guests at how lovely the entire wedding was and I know we could not have pulled it off without Charissa / Simply Loved Weddings!!

Ever since I met Rachel and saw her talents firsthand, I thought “If I ever get married, she has to be the one to do the flowers!” All these years later, Rachel made our vision happen! From our consultation to the wedding day and during the planning in between, she was accessible, knowledgable, and fun to work with! Her talent and attention to detail is unmatched - guests, vendors and venue staff were constantly complimenting the various arrangements. Our decor and centerpieces focused on books and the florals and color scheme she designed was the perfect complement - down to flowers made from book pages. Rachel is the creative genius your wedding needs and deserves!

Hola, My name is Geri! I always joke that my passion for all things beauty started in 4th grade after a tragic haircut from my father. I have been in the industry for about 12 years and every day I fall more in love with it. I started off as an assistant and now specializing in bridal hair and makeup. My ongoing education has allowed to learn so many new techniques and has given me the confidence in helping others feel their absolute best for any occasion. I love being able to connect with new people and i’m very fortunate to have been able to be a part of so many special memories.  I look forward to adding more!

I have known Geri for many years now and I get more impressed with her work each time I work aside her. She is my go to gal when it comes to needing an extra hand for large weddings. Not only does she do the most fabulous hair, her makeup skills are just as amazing. I have also had Geri do my hair and makeup and she does not disappoint. She is respectful, kind, punctual, precise, sweet and overall a fabulous stylist. I look forward to continuing working with her.
