Brooke Seminick Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Oakdale, CT

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?

Brooke Seminick Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the moment we first spoke with Brooke, we were impressed by her creative, attentive, and authentic communication style. She demonstrated a deep dedication, enthusiasm, and passion for her work, as well as a wealth of knowledge that shone through in the quality of the photos she captured. Brooke was meticulous in documenting all the big moments of our special day, but it's the tiny, detailed pictures that really make me smile. She seemed to anticipate and capture moments I hadn't even thought to request, and I'm forever grateful. Tragically, my grandmother passed away shortly after our wedding, but I'll always have the amazing photos Brooke took to cherish and share with my children someday. I couldn't recommend Brooke Seminick Photography highly enough.

Emily's Catering was an extraordinary part of our wedding day at South Farms in Morris, CT. Rick and his team handled everything wonderfully; They were organized, prompt, responsive, enthusiastic, creative, and VERY well-priced. Because we decided not to hire a planner, it was crucial that we retain vendors who could operate self-sufficiently, and Emily's truly went above and beyond in every respect. They even accommodated serving my husband's home-brew, including making wood signs for us as a surprise. My husband and I still talk about how much we loved and appreciated them, and we enthusiastically recommend them to anyone seeking the perfect caterer for their wedding.

I’m a lively wedding photographer who creates vibrant and bold pictures. I'm based in Rhode Island, but travel all around New England photographing the weddings of fun-loving and creative couples. When I'm not hunched down behind a camera, I'm a wife, mom, voracious reader, and a well-known Wonder Woman fanatic. My family takes up most of my non-photography time. I'm a soccer-chauffer, a teenager piggy-bank, and a local foodie with my husband.

We first met Morayo when we used her as our engagement photographer, she worked with us to adapt and find a new site (twice) when the weather kept ruining our plans. Morayo met us close to our home and did a beautiful rose garden shoot with us. Then when the pandemic hit she was reassuring and flexible throughout our ever changing planning process. While we had to cancel our reception and had a smaller ceremony instead, Morayo was still able to capture our getting ready photos, ceremony and formal photos perfectly. Morayo was so fun to work with and really helped us relax in front of the camera. We loved working with Morayo and would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding, especially in these crazy times!

We could not be happier with our choice to use DJ Jason Mello for our wedding! Jay kept the dance floor full the entire wedding. It's like he was reading our minds. So many of our guests have said that it was the most fun they have had at a wedding. The ceremony was flawless and Jay played the perfect music throughout cocktail hour, dinner, and through dancing. I was so impressed with his timing and music transitions during our grand entrances to the reception as well. His Vibo app made it so easy to choose which songs we'd like to hear when, and Jay filled in the gaps so smoothly where we didn't have any specifics. He was so professional, responsive, and I felt reassured throughout the planning process that we had made the right choice. Jay, thank you so much for giving us the best party we could have asked for. I couldn't recommend Jason Mello more!!!

I’m Lauren, and i’m a wedding, couples, and family photographer based in Connecticut. My style blends natural candor, a touch of fine art, and posing when needed. I focus on capturing genuine expressions and interactions. My work balances color and black-and-white images, enveloped in a soft, warm aesthetic that highlights intimacy and real connection. I look forward to capturing your moments and celebrating your stories through my lens.

I am the mother of the groom and am proud of the exceptional photography and exquisite pictures that Lauren Helsing captured of Greg and Melissa's wedding in the gorgeous setting in the Colorado Rockies! Lauren was professional, creative and managed to get wonderful smiles from my son, who throughout his life did not like to smile for the camera! She walked through prairie grass to get to the cliff where the ceremony took place, perched at precarious angles to capture a special vantage and delivered the most gorgeous photos I have ever seen of a wedding ...and in record time! She did have not only the surrounding snow-capped mountains but a stunning bride and handsome groom as subject matter. She caught them standing and sitting on their jeep, decked in white for her and black for him cowboy boots and hats, doing a dip to the crowds delight before a waterfall and so many treasured moments preserved in our memories and photos. Most important, she captured the love and joy that shone on their faces for each other. Lauren worked tirelessly, enthusiastically throughout the ceremony and the party that followed. A standing ovation for the work she gave us of their special wedding.

Hi, Thanks for reading! Here's my photography short story: 2017, after 13 years of teaching, I said goodbye to the classroom and pursued Olympic weightlifting photography- my company was Everyday Lifters. Shortly after, I launched my wedding business. The Long Version: Weightlifting has taken me to places like Turkmenistan, Germany, & across the country! The weightlifters started getting married, and along the way, I received training to advocate for diverse bodies as a photographer. During this time of transition, I started taking documenting courses through the International Center of Photography and work on documenting local stories.

I have reached out to Viviana in 2019 for our wedding in May 2020. She was accommodating and gave us a lot of information and We just clicked right off the bat. Our wedding was postponed due to Covid and she was so helpful along the way and making the rescheduling as easy as possible from her end. We got married July 2021 Viviana was amazing. My fiancé and I are not big in to pictures but Viviana made it easy and the pictures were absolutely amazing. Throughout the entire day guests would comment on hell she was all over the place getting such great pictures. She even got pictures that I had no clue she even took and when I received all of our pictures was amazed at what an amazing job she did. I would recommend her to anyone.

Hi, I'm Kate! I am a full time photographer based in RI. I photograph hybrid 35mm film and digital portraits. I travel throughout New England and love working with fun, adventurous couples. Most of my work has a very natural feel to it. I capture moments, making for a very lighthearted, low stress day. I am a roll-with-the-punches sort of person, which comes in handy since no wedding day ever goes totally to plan! I focus on the joy, laughter, gratitude and everything in between! We’ll probably go adventuring a bit to get some really cool shots. We will definitely laugh a lot. Sound good? Check out my portfolio or get in touch to chat more!

If you’re considering booking Polar Square Designs, just do it! Kate was so responsive, professional, helpful and flexible. Neither my husband nor I love having our photos taken (especially in public) but Kate made us feel totally comfortable on our engagement shoot at the beach and we ended up with some incredible shots. The turnaround time to get our whole gallery back was so quick. Leading up to our wedding, Kate’s questionnaire helped us nail down what shots we really wanted and the timeline she came up with was very helpful! On our wedding day, Kate and the second shooter Allison worked together so well and made sure we got all the shots we wanted! Everything flowed perfect and they did an amazing job capturing our best day ever! We received a bunch of “sneak peek” images less than 24 hours after our wedding and they’re all so good! Kate’s creativity and skill are evident in the results. I highly recommend Polar Square Designs!

Worked with Fania and Priscilla for my wedding hair and makeup. They also did the hair and makeup for three bridesmaids and hair for my mom. They were a dream to work with. So friendly and warm. I could not get enough of my hair and makeup. I wish they could do my hair and makeup all the time!

Hi there! My name is Chris Randall. I'm a wedding photographer based in New Haven, Connecticut. I've been photographing weddings for twelve years and have photographed over 100 weddings. I absolutely love capturing the magic that exists between two people on the biggest day of their lives! It’s a responsibility that I don’t take lightly and I see it as an honor.

Chris took photos of our wedding and we can't say enough great things about him. As you can tell from his website, the quality of the pictures he takes is outstanding. We loved how his pictures captured the essence of moments without resorting to excessive editing or effects. What you can't tell from his website is that Chris is great and easy to work with. He was responsive, suggested great locations for a photo shoot, adapted plans to stay on schedule, and was an overall calming presence. We also loved that Chris gave us full rights to our photos, meaning that we don't have to pay to download or print them. Overall very highly recommended!

Beckerman House of Planning

  • Planner
  • Offers 4 services
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Oakdale, CT

As the owner and lead planner, I am driven by a deep sense of energy and focus that I bring to work every day. My clients become a part of the Beckerman family whom I wholeheartedly care for. My journey in event planning began 9 years ago after completing my undergraduate degree in event planning and hospitality management, along with a minor in business and law. Later, I earned a master's degree in business and project management, which has helped me to gain a comprehensive understanding of planning.

From the moment we enlisted Beckerman House of Planning back in the fall of 2021, Garbriella’s detailed management and meticulous planning truly set her apart. In addition to her event planning background she holds a Master of Business and Project Management which shows through in everything she touches. I instantly connected with Garbriella’s level-headed and calm approach. In the months and weeks leading up to the wedding, she flawlessly orchestrated every aspect, from finalizing vendor contracts to creating a comprehensive timeline. Gabriella was very organized and proactive to ensure every element aligned with our vision. I was very much a DIY bride in all aspects of design, vendor sourcing, stationary, tablescapes, and details. Leading up to the wedding, she was a fantastic sounding board and stragetic partner. She reviewed contracts to ensure the scope was covered and also reviewed and provided feedback on our overall budget allocations. During the event, she made the process smooth and enjoyable from working with my sister to bustle my dress, to relighting candles that had blown out, coordinating with the venue and vendors, to boxing and hand delivering our cake to the hotel…no detail was too small for Garbriella to think about. Garbriella was integral in making all of my DIY ideas and designs come to life. She meticulously set up all of our centerpieces and accents. After the wedding, Garbriella carefully packed up all of our items for us to bring home. Beckerman House of Planning not only executed the logistics seamlessly but also went above and beyond, offering thoughtful suggestions along the way that enhanced the overall experience and demonstrating a commitment that truly exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend Beckerman House of Planning for coordination and/or planning needs for future couples!

We have been performing as a band since 2003, when Jordan Shapiro formed the band with some close musician friends in Brooklyn, NY. Since then, the band has performed at hundreds and hundreds of concerts, weddings, festivals, parties, kids birthday parties, and various other kinds of family oriented events. We have an extensive songlist of over 300 songs, drawing from all styles of music, including traditional folk/bluegrass, as well as classic rock, pop, jazz and country. The band has also released 3 full length albums of original music, ranging from progressive bluegrass/newgrass instrumentals to goofy kids songs.

Awarded Best of Zola
All of our guests commented that the music at our wedding was lovely and really tied the whole event together. Our venue did not allow DJ's or amplified sound and Astrograss had no problem playing everything acoustically. They were really great communicating before our event. They learned 5 songs at our request and let us pick plenty others for them to play from their extensive repertoire. They even coordinated with our friend (who is a singer) who wanted to sing something for us which ended up being one of the highlights of the night.

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.

Mark is an outstanding photographer who effortlessly captures unique settings with incredible attention to detail. We’ve worked together countless times. A true professional who not only excels in his craft but also establishes a fantastic rapport with couples, infusing every moment with genuine joy.

LRO is simply amazing. (They were the first vendor we hired.) They are so easy to work with and really want your wedding to be amazing! They are an insanely talented bunch and not the “typical wedding band.” We’ve been to several weddings where they played (including our own) and each time is fantastic, so they always hit the mark. If you want a wedding where everyone is on the dance floor, the energy is high, and people will talk about your day for literally years to come ... hire LRO. If you don’t, you’re making a mistake.

Meghan was such a pleasure to work with and we kept saying over and over again throughout the wedding process, “We are so how grateful we booked her!” Literally you ask any of our family and friends what was the phrase we said the most throughout our wedding process was, “We absolutely love our photographer!” She made us feel relaxed throughout the entire process and truly helped us get not just the photos that we desired but BEYOND that. She is an absolute artist at finding the perfect shot and her positive attitude helps you feel at peace while you’re planning all the details of your wedding day. I can not recommend Meghan and her team enough. Absolute professionals!

Relive the moments as you experienced them. When it comes to your wedding, what are you most excited about? The ceremony? Dancing the night away with family and friends? Indulging in the emotion of the day? The photos are important so you can relive each memorable moment. But the moments are only memorable if you take the time to experience them in the first place. This way, you'll not only experience the moments of your wedding day - you'll remember them well. Who better to photograph your experiences than a husband and wife team who understands the importance of this day. And the moments that shape it.

Where do we even begin with Ishan and Preeti of Ishan Fotografi?! Our experience with them was nothing short of amazing. My husband and I (and all of our guests!) would highly recommend Ishan Fotografi to any couple looking for talented, thoughtful, creative, adventurous, understanding, professional, responsive and downright fun photographers! I first got introduced to Ishan & Preeti a year before my wedding at another wedding they were shooting. I really liked their vibe/personality while working with the couple - they were really thoughtful in their approach and shots they took, had great ideas/visions and were really great at demonstrating poses for the couple because they're a couple themselves! I immediately reached out to them the next day to get to know them a bit more. Ishan and Preeti were very communicative from the beginning - answering any of our questions via email, text or phone call; inviting us to their place to see their work; asking us how the wedding planning was going; etc. We got along with them instantaneously and knew we didn't want to book anyone else. Not only were Ishan & Preeti great photographers, but also GREAT company! We loved every minute of our engagement shoot with them. It can get a little awkward taking photos in public, but Ishan and Preeti made it super fun and relaxed. That kind of energy and vibe cascaded throughout the wedding weekend. We were so appreciative of this, especially because they knew how to help us navigate stressful situations as they arose throughout the weekend and made sure our photos still came out great! They also took the time to walk around our venue and scope out the best places to take the different types of photos we wanted. We received our photos very quickly after the wedding. There are so many amazing shots we are having a hard time picking our favorites!! Definitely a good problem to have :) If we ever are in need of photographers again, we know exactly know who we'll be calling!
