Michael Orzell Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,900
  • Serves Kensington, 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!

After nearly a decade of freelancing as a wedding cinematographer and photographer, I’m excited to have opened my own studio, dedicated to capturing love stories. While I originally came to the U.S. in 2015 for a Master’s in International Business, I discovered my true passion for documenting life’s most special moments. Weddings are about more than just beautiful shots—they’re about preserving raw, candid emotions. My goal is to capture moments you’ll cherish forever, so you can relive your wedding day for years to come.

We were so impressed with Saajan's professionalism and expertise from start to finish! He's not only a talented photographer but also an incredible person to work with. Saajan was organized, punctual, and made sure every shot was perfect. He gave us just the right amount of direction while still allowing us to be ourselves in front of the camera. The final photos blew us away, and we've received so many compliments from family and friends. If you want a photographer who is both skilled and a joy to work with, Veil and Film is the best choice!

BridgetQ Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,200
  • Serves Kensington, CT

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!

Acromatico Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,650
  • Serves Kensington, CT

Our passion for visual storytelling and photography began over 20 years ago when we started capturing incredible stories, weddings and life’s most important events behind our lens in a little town in Abruzzo Italy, and later on we expanded onto South Florida’s warm beaches and New York's charm. As a worldwide family owned brand that started as a husband and wife team, our DNA is down to earth, creative and artsy. We are outgoing and full of creativity. No two weddings (like no two paintings) will ever be the same. Our approach: candid, photojournalistic, natural. We are here to capture the creatives in love. The real, the authentic you.

Awarded Best of Zola
Run, don’t walk! Do yourself a favor and book a session with Acromatico - you won’t regret it! During our Covid wedding we felt safe working with them as they were professional, flexible and understanding. Acromatico brought our vision to life. Marietta ( Tica ) was a dream to work with, energetic, engaging, and a lot of fun! There just aren’t enough words to possibly describe how amazing each and every photo turned out to be. She has a magical way of finding the perfect angle, lighting and of course expressions. Would definitely recommend and use for future events!

When we are not working we are outdoors or sitting by the fire. We love traveling to places where the earth is at its greatest. Our superpower is that we know what you are thinking. lol. Our style is Honest, Emotional, Intuitive, and Real. We love traveling anywhere in the world, as long as we're together!

I have worked with Jacklyn & Chris for 2 years now and their professionalism and communication is the best I have ever encountered and don't get me started on their photography. I am blown away on their work every time I see a photo of theirs. Jacklyn has become a friend over the years but that doesn't take away from her level of professionalism and level of service she offers to our clients. I cannot recommend a better photographer for anyone I know. JAG Studios is amazing!!!

Hi! I'm Kristen. I'm a wedding, boudoir, and portrait photographer who loves to make people laugh, connect with each other, and feel beautiful in their own skin. Based in New Milford, CT and serving Connecticut and beyond. Questions? DM me on Instagram!

Kristen did my engagement photos and will also be doing my wedding! She has been so flexible, patient, responsive, and understanding this entire process. My fiancé and I were both nervous the day of the shoot but Kristen was such a ray of sunshine she had us so comfortable and laughing the entire time! We were worried that we were going to stand there awkwardly but she walked us through the entire shoot. She really took her time with us and then was so excited to upload and edit our photos that she had them done within the next few days. I couldn’t recommend her more! Thank you Kristen!!

Warren Lane Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Kensington, CT

I became a wedding photographer to give you a sense relief that comes when you know you have a photographer that will be your ultimate hype person, be that person where you can always just be yourself in front of, and a person that will always look out for you on your big day. I want you to feel as if I am an extended friend throughout this process and trust me to capture who you truly are.

I can not say enough good things about Warren! Planning a wedding is so stressful and doing it during covid made it outright not a good time. Luckily we found Warren early in our planning process and he made us feel so secure about our photography decision. He was an excellent hype man throughout the whole planning process and especially on the big day. My bridal party loved working with him and had a blast taking photos. He truly makes you feel like family and takes great care to make you feel at ease through all of the awkward wedding poses. He captured our relationship in the most beautiful, romantic way. I have received endless compliments on my photos and I can’t wait to relive my day for so many years to come.

“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.

We had the most wonderful experience with Hechler photographers. The team on the day of our wedding captured every detail. Honestly we had a hard time picking/narrowing down our photos for our album,frames & Instagram because all of them were so good!! If you want quality/beautiful classic photos or candid photos this is the photographer! Hands down one of the best vendor choices and experiences of our wedding selections.

Nithya Sharma Photography

I've been in love with the art of photography for as long as I can remember, and I'm truly blessed to be able to pursue my passion every day. Growing up all over the world (Sweden, India, and Denmark to name a few!), my love of photography grew from my desire to capture the places and people I wanted to remember the most. What I love most is the incredible honor of being part of your special day and capturing the deep emotions behind the photograph.

We were so fortunate to come in touch with Nithya through Zola! When I found out in early September that things fell through with a local photographer for my October wedding, I emailed 10 photographers on Zola, desperate to find out about their availability. I had a reply from Nithya the next morning, and after a wonderful chat, she became my new photographer! I loved her enthusiasm and how she talked about her work and the types of photos she wanted to capture that day. Many guests have mentioned how she was always in the background the entire evening, totally focused on her work. We found a gem in Nithya and we can't wait to look at her photos!

Yaritza Colon Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Kensington, CT

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.

I had the pleasure of working with Yaritza for my engagement photos & wedding and can't recommend her highly enough. Her communication style is fun, easy-going, while still professional, making the entire process a breeze. Yaritza has a keen eye for detail and captures authentic, candid moments that truly tell the story of our special day. She even had her husband come meet us with a pedicab for some late-night city photos, which was such a thoughtful and above-and-beyond gesture. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who won't miss a single special moment, Yaritza Colon Photography is the perfect choice.

The ordinary can easily become the extraordinary, simply by willing it so. At the end of the day, your wedding photos should be no different. Because you are beautiful in your own special way. And who makes the rules? You do. And should you invite me to be a part of your most amazing day ever, I promise to show you only the most fun, amazing photos that’ll showcase the fun-loving and free spirits of two crazy-in-love individuals (and knock everyone’s socks off too). So be yourself. You can laugh, cry, or shout silly things if you want to. It’ll feel awesome, promise. The only rule is that there are no rules. Now let’s go have some fun :).

Karis Lau is an amazing photographer and I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for high quality photographs for their wedding. She is one of the most artistic photographers we have ever worked with!

We are Jasmine Tianna Photography, a wedding photography business located in Connecticut. We believe a couple's love story deserves to be captured in the most beautiful way possible. Recognizing that a wedding is a singular moment in time, we'll capture it in away that envelopes intimacy and romance. Trying to capture every detail with a stylish, journalistic approach so the pictures can be enjoyed for many years to come.

The pictures came out amazing and it’s now hard to choose which ones we want to use for various things because we love them all. She was so great to work with and made us feel super comfortable. She really understood who we were as a couple and made sure that it was captured in the pictures she took. I would recommend her 10x over to any couple needing engagement photos

I've been shooting unique, non-traditional, very-traditional, queer, straight, weird, normal, sexy, just-plain-fun weddings for over a decade now. Don't think your wedding falls into that category? Don't be so sure. Your unique love deserves to be documented whoever that may look. If you want bad-ass photography that stands out, all while having fun doing it, we're what you've been looking for. Let's connect. We'd love to hear your love story.

I haaaate having my photo taken. I was super anxious about the whole process going into it. It takes a certain amount of trust to let someone photograph you... Jay and his Bellocq team were A from start to finish. We were blown away by A) the sheer amount of photos given back (they don't cap their packages at certain photo counts) and B) how seamlessly the entire collection flowed together from start to finish. We couldn't have asked for more. We will definitely be re-booking them for our family photos (first baby on the way!!!) in the future. Jay is incredibly kind and fun to be around, and just puts you at ease. That is the first thing you'll notice when you meet. Can't recommend Bellocq enough!!!

Layne Ann Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Kensington, CT

My name is Layne, I am a 25 year old photographer based out of Connecticut, but always down to get out of here and travel! I have a passion for capturing some of life's most beautiful moments and turning them into a memory you can truly cherish forever. My love for photography has gotten me through some of the worst times and is my saving grace. Because of that, I don't plan on ever putting my camera down. I am not here to put you in the perfect pose; I am here to capture real, authentic emotion! When you open your album I want you to feel something, and I strongly believe those raw emotions come from candid moments that can’t be posed.

Layne Ann Photography was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Layne communicated quickly and reliably throughout the planning process, making it easy to coordinate schedules and locations. On our rainy wedding day, Layne brought an upbeat, easygoing energy that kept the photo shoot fun, even when we had to adjust plans last-minute. The photos turned out beautifully - Layne has a real talent for capturing creative shots, and the images vividly showcase the joy and love from our special day. Between the quality of the photographs and Layne's friendly professionalism, we felt we received fantastic value. I wholeheartedly recommend Layne Ann Photography to any couple looking for a talented, communicative photographer to capture the magic of their wedding celebrations.

Tired of not seeing yourselves represented in the wedding industry? Welcome to the RTP fam - we're a husband and wife duo shooting a combination of digital, film and Polaroid photos so that your gallery will deliver all the vibes and capture your sick, nontraditional love. And because of all the time we'll spend together getting to know you and crafting the perfect photo timeline for your day, you'll feel like we're just your two best friends there to capture the moments. No matter your size, race, gender, sexual orientation or religion, we're here to hype you up as you share all your wildest wedding ideas with us!

Meaghan and Evan were simply the best! Rhode Tripper Photography was the first photographer we reached out to for our wedding and after meeting with Meaghan we knew there was no need to look further because not only did she offer everything we possibly wanted - film, polaroids, amazingly composed photos - but she immediately felt like a friend we were getting to know. While we were nervous heading into our engagement shoot, Meaghan and Evan made it feel like the most natural thing in the world, and we had so much fun laughing our way through the shoot. That feeling only continued as we got to know them more and worked to plan out the details for our wedding. Meaghan laid everything out so clearly in the weeks and months leading up to our wedding and helped to organize our thinking for what truly mattered on our wedding day. It's hard to put into words how special our photos are - but Meaghan and Evan did such an incredible job capturing the very best moments of our wedding day. We've had trouble narrowing down our favorites because there are so many good ones! If you are looking for a photographer who will feel like a friend capturing your day with beautiful, intimate moments look no further.

I live in Willimantic, CT in a converted firehouse with my boyfriend Tylor & our dog Maple, and I love a lot of things haha. When I'm not behind the camera, I am swing dancing, painting, playing piano, cooking, hiking with Tylor and Maple, or editing your photos & videos! I have decided to just shoot for my dreams and become a full-time photographer & videographer! You only live once, right? So why not re-direct my life towards a more fulfilling path of doing what makes me happiest?! So yeah- that's what I'm doing- and I am LOVING it.

Molly is a dream to work with, and her carefree go-with-the-flow vibe is everything we needed on our wedding day! Our sneak peeks came out perfectly and we can't wait to see the whole gallery and our video! Her team is professional and kind, and she is very communicative! From the start to our engagement photos to our wedding, we never had any doubts in her or her work! Thank you Molly for capturing our day and making it one we can revisit forever!

I have the unique position of being a social butterfly and a fly on the wall at the same time: an artist, a documentarian, and part of a team that supports the enjoyment of everyone gathered to celebrate your love. I love new places and new faces. I love seeing people have the time of their lives, and I love sneaking in to grab those moments you didn't even realize were about to happen. The result: the most natural pictures that reflect how you FELT that day. I value creativity, meaningful relationships, and having fun- so if you do too, we're a good match.

Paulette is amazing to work with! We wanted a candid approach to our wedding photos & she absolutely nailed it! Nothing was forced & it was all seamless. She was flexible with our schedule & went above and beyond. She has an incredible eye and captured our weekend perfectly! She even sent a ‘sneak peek’ the very next morning- which was an added bonus! She loves what she does and it shines through her photos! Plus, she is a total sweetheart and EVERYONE raved (& are still raving) about her! Thank you so much, Paulette!!

The Leighton Co. is a husband and wife photography and filmmaking team documenting stories of love and life through intentional, modern, and genuine imagery. We believe that when the day isn't solely focused around the photos and video, then THAT is when you get the best footage.

I highly recommend Becca and Scott. I sent in an inquiry form, and soon after Becca scheduled a call for us to discuss what we envisioned for our wedding day and to tell us about their different packages. We were not certain that we wanted a videographer, but Becca and Scott helped to guide us to make the best choice for us. Leading up to our wedding day, Becca was great about communicating with us. And best of all she created a day of timeline for us! I was so stressed about the timing of the day, but once I saw her suggested timeline, I knew it would work out great. On the day of our wedding, both Becca and Scott were awesome. They were supportive and kind, making sure that we were comfortable and able to be where we wanted to. We never felt awkward or like we were “forcing it” for the cameras. Post wedding, Becca and Scott were again great about communicating with us about when they would deliver our finalized photos and video. Both our engagement and wedding photos/ videos are beautiful. The Leighton Co has a timeless style that we love, and they do a great job of capturing you and your day as it is. It is very obvious how much hard work they put in, and how dedicated they are to the couples they work with. I know that we will look back at our pictures and videos for many years and instantly remember how loved we felt that day.
