Par La Mer Photography

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,800
  • Serves Speculator, NY

Hello, I'm Tonya. I am a documentary wedding, boudoir & lifestyle photographer with an editorial approach based in Fairfield County, Connecticut. At the heart of my work, you will find authentic connection & composition, some of the most important things to me as an artist. I build on that with honest storytelling with a more editorial approach. My inspiration lies in authentic human connection & emotions, pockets of light, vintage film, movement, honest interactions, vibrant colors found in nature, fog after a rainfall. Finding beauty in the most ordinary things.

Awarded Best of Zola
Tonya's work is unbelievable. The fog that rolled in for our ceremony made it hard to see just a few feet in front of us, but her pictures came out stunning. She's a great communicator, detail-oriented and really made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She sent us a day-of timeline and helped plan out what photos we would like in advance. We got back a preview album sent to us like 2 days after our wedding! We also did an engagement shoot with her before our wedding, which really made us excited for our big day.

Hi. I’m Angelica and I’m a Brooklyn native, a momma, and gamer who has been into art since a child. I focus on capturing candid, wholehearted moments portraying your true personalities while always keeping the vibe relaxed and intimate. Your wedding is a unique and precious celebration of love. It should be fun for you and your guests. Just be yourself as I capture all the happy, emotional, romantic and quirky moments that make you and your partner who you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
Angelica captured our special day absolutely perfectly. We had hired her for our wedding that was supposed to happen in 2020 but had to be rescheduled for 3 years later due to the pandemic and through that entire time she stuck with us! She was communicative and responsive, and her shots were absolutely gorgeous. She managed to capture every single important moment of our celebration and the way she guides and corrals everyone into taking pictures that look good is nothing short of a miracle (trust me, I feel so awkward in front of the camera and I look incredible in all of my wedding shots.) If you need a photographer for your wedding, Angelica is 100% your girl.

  • Serves Speculator, NY

Weddings are celebrations that are full of emotion and romance all in a highly dynamic environment. Wedding photographs are timeless and irreplaceable so as a photographer, I feel I have a great responsibility at hand. I try my best to work with clients on their needs, provide flexible coverage hours and I work within their budgets. I am drawn to those unguarded candid moments. I attempt to portray an artistic feel that reveals feelings of emotion onto the viewer. Be it a gaze, a beaming smile, tears of joy or a blurred image to depict movement my goal is communication. It is these moments along with many others I feel should be captured.

Jose is fantastic! He has so much experience and very professional. Before our wedding day, he always had quick and clear communication. We loved his artistic eye and dramatic style of photography. He knows how to give good direction for those that aren’t used to posing or being photographed, and was always looking for the next shot. He definitely lets you be you and can still get amazing shots. We were surprised at how quickly we got to preview our gallery. After the wedding day, I realized that there was so much I didn’t get to document personally to remember the details from that day. But after seeing some of the shots, Jose had made me so happy to see how much he documented from the day! I highly recommend Jose :)

Kansla Photography (Natalie) was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the start, her communication was fast, flexible, and highly effective, making the planning process a breeze. The quality of her work was exceptional - they captured the day with a confident, special touch that left us feeling so grateful. Natalie went above and beyond to help coordinate our small wedding party right before the ceremony, and she was incredibly patient and kind with both sides of our somewhat chaotic family members and groups! Throughout the entire planning process, Natalie was a true partner, listening to our needs and making sure my fiance and I were the top priority. We couldn't recommend her more highly for any couple looking for a talented, personable photography team to bring their wedding vision to life. Lastly, Natalie has extremely competitive prices for the wedding industry. Not only did she travel across the entire country for our big day, her travel pricing was more competitive than anyone I could find locally in Seattle and the quality of her work was even higher than the local options I found.

Her photos are amazing compositionally, and she was great at directing us to get the best shots. We chose her because her photos have a natural vibe and warm tone. We knew we could rely on her to capture the day perfectly. So happy we chose her, highly recommend!

WOW! I can not say enough on how appreciative I am of Bari and Antonia. A month before my wedding I realized I desperately needed Day of Coordinators. Bari and Antonia were so responsive and assuring. They took on my wedding with such grace. No request of mine was too much. They travelled all the way to Jersey City from Philly and were so accomodating. They spent time with all our vendors on the day of the wedding, helping set up with the florist and some of my DIY decor. They made sure my ceremony procession ran smoothly. They made sure all the little details were taken care of. The night of my wedding, the only thought I had was to have a good time, and thats because Bari and Antonia did the rest. I couldn't recommend them more if you need help on your wedding day.

I’m a full-time wedding photographer currently based in Central Connecticut. I love traveling, Thai food, all dogs, almost every type of music, and pretty much anything related to astronomy. Talking about myself has always been a little weird for me because I love hearing about you. My couples become my friends instantly, no really – as soon as we have our first chat together it’s DONE. BFFs for life. Be prepared for creating secret handshakes, inside jokes, and a ton of memories together!

Kelsey was truly the best person to capture our wedding day, not just because of her amazing photography skills but also because of her effervescent and playful energy that truly made our day so fun. We were able to do our engagement shoot with Kelsey at our wedding venue, and she made us feel so comfortable even though neither my husband or I had much experience getting our photos taken. As soon as we saw the gorgeous photos from our engagement shoot, we knew we had made the right choice. When our wedding day finally came, Kelsey and her second shooter, Zach, were so fun to be around and made everyone in our wedding party and families feel happy and included. Every moment felt celebratory and fun, but they also made sure we stuck to our schedule and got all our key photos done! We are so so happy with how the photos came out. Kelsey captured the real emotions and the love that surrounded us on our wedding day, and I can’t thank her enough for the gift of being able to look back on that day through her photographs.

After years of designing and coordinating events for friends and family, Abby decided it was time to turn this passion into a business.

It was such a pleasure to work with Abby and Pretty Posh Events! Abby was our month of coordinator/ florist for my backyard wedding ceremony in July 2023. As an out of state bride, Abby worked with me over the phone and email throughout the planning process to design the event, and worked around my schedule to visit the sight. Abby had such a great vision for my grandma's backyard (the venue) and assured us throughout the process that it would come out beautifully...and it sure did! Every detail was well-thought out and unique to us. She recommended other vendors (B&B party rentals), as well as had connections through friends. Specifically, she worked with a graphic designer to create stunning metallic menu cards, and wrapped the bar in our wedding stationary. I look forward to working with Abby again for future events!!!

My partner and I began our journey with Syrie as our wedding planner back in the fall of 2020, and we can honestly say it was one of the best decisions we've ever made. We started with a selected venue but little else. Syrie, with her organized approach and expertise, transformed our vague ideas into a stunning wedding reality. She took our abstract descriptions and envisioned a day that was far beyond what we thought we wanted – it was what we dreamed of. Despite our extended planning cycle, Syrie was a constant presence, always checking in to ensure that our preparations were on track. As a couple living in New York City, we appreciated having local "boots on the ground" throughout the planning process. Her deep connections within the Buffalo wedding industry became priceless when our original our venue, Hotel Henry, unexpectedly shut down. Syrie saw the writing on the wall weeks before their fall and organized tours of alternative venues – a task outside our agreed-upon package. We ended up choosing The Admiral Room, a venue we hadn't initially considered, but it turned out to be a gem. Its grandeur resonated with us perfectly – yet another testament to Syrie's understanding of our tastes and preferences. Syrie's expertise also shone when it came to vendor selection. She provided a plethora of options for each service, letting us evaluate different styles and approaches. Each vendor we chose delivered impeccable service, with a special shout-out to Tori Vee who created an extraordinary musical ambiance. Syrie is an impressive organizational powerhouse. Having her as our planner allowed us to focus on savoring every moment of our special day. Her efficient staff resolved a minor hiccup with a vendor within half an hour – we barely noticed it had happened. Our experience with Syrie was nothing short of magnificent. She guided us through a daunting process with grace, expertise, and foresight. Syrie not only saved us from potential disaster but helped create a day that was even more beautiful than we could have imagined. We enthusiastically recommend Syrie.

Creativity has played a role in my life ever since I was a little girl. I grew up in upstate NY loving the outdoors and being close to the mountains! Although I loved where I grew up, when I graduated high school I decided to move South to Georgia to pursue a degree. While studying Fine Arts at the Savannah College of Art and Design, I fell in love with photography. I received my B.F.A in photography and then moved back home to NY where I became busy photographing weddings.

Meghan shot our engagement and wedding photos in 2015 and did such an amazing job. She was very personable, open to suggestions and had a great vision in working with us. She also had a very large and rowdy wedding party to contend with and did so beautifully. We were so over the moon with her and her work that she has become our family photographer. She has shot our maternity pictures and every year since. She is very affordable and does amazing work. She is the kindest person and it really feels like she's become apart of our family.

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.

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.

You won’t regret hiring Tony and Platinum Entertainment, but you will regret not hiring them. Your DJ/MC is one of the most if not the most important vendor that you will book for your wedding. I didn’t believe it until I saw it, but it’s true. Tony was recommended to us by our wedding photographer, Hannah of Hannah Lux Photography. We set up a video call ASAP and after the first few moments, knew he was the right person for our wedding. It was evident very quickly that Tony is beyond passionate about what he does. Throughout the planning process, Tony guided us through everything we needed, made recommendations, and not only tolerated but encouraged my many Taylor Swift requests (or demands). Our wedding was less than 60 people including my husband and I. With such an intimate wedding, we were nervous for a while leading up to the event that people wouldn’t dance, or might even treat it more like a dinner party than a wedding. We were so wrong! The dance floor went ALL NIGHT because of Tony. Friends and family members that I have never seen dance, on the dance floor for our ENTIRE reception having the time of their lives. Our guests RAVED about our DJ all night and I can’t think of a day that’s passed yet that someone hasn’t mentioned how great he was. Tony is more than a DJ or an MC, Tony is a professional, an expert in his craft, a talented and creative individual, and a genuine, true person and friend. We can’t thank him enough for what he did for us.

Love Revival Orchestra has performed at Hildene, The Lincoln Family Home many, many times over the last 5 years. They are professional, kind, courteous and respectful to our unique property. Their musicianship is spectacular and are very savvy to nuances of performing at weddings. Their ability to read the crowd and play the appropriate music at the appropriate time is unsurpassed. We are particularly enchanted by the "Dixieland Band" style approach to transitioning guests from our cocktail site to our reception space. Love Revival Orchestra is a GREAT wedding band. Music at a wedding is the heart and soul of the event and can make or break it. You and your guests will have an excellent time if you have the opportunity to work with Love Revival Orchestra. I'd suggest booking them right now, before someone else does!

It’s been almost a month since my wedding and all anyone can talk about (still!!!) is this band! They were fantastic, high energy, talented beyond measure and knew how to play to their audience. I’m so happy I found them. They were reasonable price compared to other bands we looked at also. Our manager, Hannah, was fantastic with coordination and hearing me out on all of my song requests. 12/10 would definitely contract with again!

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.

Ishan and Preeti are incredible people and artists. So talented, creative, artistic, fun and affordable. No cheesy typical wedding photos here! Our pictures are one of a kind. For our engagement photos, Ishan and Preeti were willing to drive aroubd local towns and take photos at numerous locations that meant something special to us. They are so creative with light and texture and are daring to go anywhere. And then our wedding day..Oh My Goodness. I have never seen such beautiful photos. We got married in Montauk, NY and after our first look, we went out by the lighthouse and took photos over the bluffs. They are INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!! We got married at a yacht club and we had mentioned to Ishan how we would love a photo on a big yacht. He again rose to the occasion. We found friendly boat owners who let us board their yacht and Ishan got photos of us opening champagne and drone photos of us lying on the bow. He thinks on his feet and comes up with awesome photos in any circumstance. Ishan Fotografi really captured the highlights of the wedding perfectly. The photos were available by the time we were back from our honeymoon. We just received our album, which is not only breathtaking, but really tells the story of the wedding day.

Hey there, I'm Joy! Years from now when you look at your wedding photographs, I want all of the memories and emotions to come flooding back: the joy, the love, and the laughter. It’s so easy to live our lives, missing the sweetest moments because how quickly they fly by. Those sweet in-between moments that can be so easily missed are my favorite to capture. Whether it be your candid smiles, the tears shed on your wedding day, or your beautiful family laughing together, I find joy in capturing you being YOU! I love photography because through it, I’m able to share pieces of your story and create lasting memories.

Joy made us feel special and relaxed in the midst of a hectic day. She captured our love so beautifully and delivered photos that looked effortless and natural, which is exactly what we wanted! So much of that is owed to her encouraging words off-camera that made the environment feel comfortable even while being photographed. She wholeheartedly lives up to her name and brought sunshine to our already bright day!

Raquel was an absolute no-brainer and one of the best decisions we made. She took stunning photos at a friends' wedding and her work is impeccable. She has a strong eye, works hard to capture the day all while making you feel at ease. While the more formal portraits she took were gorgeous, she really shines at capturing the more personal moments between couples, family, and friends. Importantly, she tells you exactly what she needs you to do while accomodating your requests. To top it all off, she is a warm, caring and friendly person. I can't reccomend her work more and best of luck if you can lock her in before someone else does. Thanks Raquel!!!
