Emma Cleary Photo and Video 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves West Haven, CT

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

I was referred to Emma Cleary via a gf who had just had her wedding shot and said she did great work so I was happy to get a glowing referral while trying to source vendors. Emma was a godsend for me, because my wedding had so much that I wanted to cover, with so many moving pieces (7 musical acts, 20 performers, etc.) at so many different locations (a memorial area for first look, then over to a Park for ceremony, then a boat to an Island for the reception) via different modes of transportation (car, ferry, boat, 2nd line parade) over multiple nights (we shot both Friday -Sunday am) but her and her team came along for the entire ride and nailed it and I got AMAZING photos for every part. The lead photographer was so on it (which we needed bc we were on such a tight schedule) and the other photographers were also great and told us jokes which helped me actually get genuine smiles and helped so much during the stressful first look. My veil blew away during my photos (before the ceremony, sigh) and they were there trying to climb the tree to get it (but it was way too high up!) but A+ for effort. And the best part was that she actually SAVED my wedding... we had planned on getting married next to a carousel inside a public park, and the carousel party coordinator didn't file the required permit we needed so a hour before I walked down the aisle the park rangers came in and forced the setup/guests out. Emma knew the owner of a nearby restaurant where she had shot wedding photos before and asked the owner if we could use in front of his restaurant (facing the water) as a ceremony site. If that had not happened then who knows where I would have gotten married. She worked with my wedding planner and my guests (and us too!) had a place to have our ceremony last second... she was a total life saver during such a stressful and important moment. And then at the end once we received the photos, my favorite part was the light editing which was just the right amount, not too fake, so was perfect. Some of the photos dont even look like we are in a city which I just loved loved loved and had said I wanted, and then when we wanted city or actions shots she got those too so we had options of everything we did in every way. There is one shot where she got the end of our first dance and it looks like we are in a Broadway play! Anyways, as you could tell I couldnt have recommended any more bc she has so many years of experience it helped us with not only capturing the moments perfectly, and in a perfect way, it also helped us bc she knows all the wedding venues and wedding industry people and I never realized how much that plays a part in booking vendors.

I contacted Katie 5 years ago to order a custom bouquet and boutonniere for my literary themed wedding that took place in the KC Public Library. From the first conversation I knew I had made the right choice. Katie was communicative, enthusiastic, and lovely during the entire exchange.

Hi! I'm Aren, when trusted to tell your story through my lens, I take a photojournalistic approach. I value capturing the moments as they are happening on your big day, rather than making your wedding day into a "photoshoot". Real, raw, + authentic love is what I am here to capture. Minimalistic photography really draws my eye, never over complicating what's really happening in front of us, and finding the beauty in the simple, in-between, moments.

Working with Aren was amazing. She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera immediately, and captured us perfectly. We were so impressed with the quality of her shots and her prompt delivery of our gallery!

Avec Lamour! I cannot say enough about the services that are executed. Avec Lamour captured our wedding day recently this past October, 2023. The videos were so beautiful it was all my wife and I could ever hope for. We had the pleasure of working closely with John Hill (owner of Avec Lamour) a talented cinematographer. When searching for a videographer I personally knew that I did want my wedding day to be captured and documented much differently than the usual wedding videos seen today. Although beautiful, my wife and I agreed to have more of a cinematic approach. We shortly came across John Hill, a wonderful cinematographer with the skills to capture the happiest day of our lives and turn it into cinematic art. A love story that captures all viewers attention and one my wife and I will cherish forever. Our overall experience working with John was exceptional! Heidi is a very cool down to earth guy that really gets your vision. John is timely in responses and the delivery of the finalized product took only just a short few weeks we were so thrilled! We highly recommend Avec Lamour to capture your special day especially if you are wanting a cinematic experience!!

Born and raised in Maine, I dream of one day retiring there by the sea, like a real life Miss Rumphius. But until then, I live just outside of Boston with my husband and our three cats. I'm married to my high school sweetheart, but we waited more than a decade before saying our own vows. Sometimes (okay, often) I eat cake for breakfast, so you can always count on me to help taste test yours. If I'm not photographing people in love, I'm probably enjoying a glass (bottle) of champagne on the couch or planning my next adventure. I believe everything is better by the ocean and you should never wait to explore the world.

I grew up with family members that DJ'd most of my family's weddings CA. But since I got married in PA they weren't really an option and to be honest I am glad they weren't. Stefan was incredibly professional, detailed, and fun to work with. He was so flexible with all the things we had going on. He helped me immensely to ensure that everything was timed well throughout the day. He was a perfect MC, had amazing sound equipment. And more importantly played DOPE A** music. My husband is a skater at heart and so he loves the classic early 2000 music like Mr. Brightside. So much so that he had a whole list of songs he wanted Stefan to play in a series. And Stefan DELIVERED. the entire crowd was pumped up by the songs and it made the whole night that much more amazing. When I say that DJ Stefan is worth every penny I mean it. EVERY PENNY. You will not be disappointed and neither would your guests. Worry free, awesome music, that's where it is at. Thank you Stefan!!!!!!

Vibrant puts your day first and foremost. Our premier performances and dedication to personalized service has led to our recent induction into The_Knot Hall of Fame 2020.

I will be working with you directly every step of the way from consultation and planning, to the day of the wedding.

Vibrant was fantastic for our March wedding. They brought amazing energy and class to our event, and guests are still raving about them a month later. The dance floor was packed for the entire evening. Lauren and Miguel are a dynamite lead-singing duo, and the instrumentalists are each incredibly talented. Justin was very responsive and easy to connect with leading up to the day, and accommodated all of our requests and needs with ease. They were also very helpful with recommendations based on extensive experience, and even allowed the bride's sister to play their keyboard for the ceremony, which was an over-and-above request they did not have to agree to. Overall can't recommend this group enough!

I started photographing weddings in 2017. I originally got my first camera to photograph landscapes- National Parks specifically. But the second the camera was in my hands, I was immediately drawn to photographing connections between people. Since that moment I haven't hesitated while my heart led me in the direction of wedding and elopement photography! I love documenting the in-between, unprompted moments; the subtle way your partner glances over at you with a side smile when you're not paying attention, the groom fiddling with his new ring, and the uncontrollable laughter when you're melting into each other during your couple's photos.

Tammy, there is not enough praise in this world for what you deserve for truly creating the most magical elopement day. From the moment we started talking, Tammy filled our imagination with ideas, plans and picture locations to help make our wedding special. She did not hesitate when we decided to elope in Acadia National Park and sent over research and location ideas of where to hold our ceremony. She was attentive to the details that were most important to us and really allowed us to create our perfect day. Not only did she help plan our elopement day but day of she arrived early and was able to help create the excitement and long lasting memories. With her creative eye, she found the most perfect spot for us to have our first look. With great skill, she professionally moved the wedding party along to be to stay true to the ceremony timeline and the National Park entrance time (which is a feat to coordinate 7 guests, a dog and a bus driver). With not having a wedding planner (or any guest focused on timeline) it was so helpful to have Tammy to take charge and gather the group. Lastly, but certainly not least, she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We dont normally enjoy being the center of attention, she had us move naturally and cued us to be confident in front of the camera. With her upbeat personality and lots of laughs, the pictures captured our excitement and love while we eloped. She didn’t hesitate for a second when we asked for our dog to be in almost every picture us and was able to capture. She read my mind as taking pictures from different angles and of the landscape around us. Thank you Tammy for making our dream surprise elopement a reality! Not only was it the most perfect day, but now we have pictures that capture the emotions and celebration of our wedding!

You’ve seen wedding bands before. But you’ve never seen one like us. Our wedding nights are, in a word, unforgettable.

We travel all over New England and beyond, so when you’re ready for our industry-leading talent and a game-changing event package all at one affordable wedding band price, we’re ready to celebrate with you.

We are still on a high from the most fun night of our lives all thanks to BeachNights band, Chris and DJ Connor!!! If you want to have music at your wedding that everyone will be talking about for years to come, book BeachNights for your reception and the DJ combo for your other music needs (ceremony, cocktail hour, afterparty). Booking BeachNights for all our music needs was the best decision we made for our wedding day. BeachNights far exceeded our expectations. Chris is so professional, organized, and easy to work with. They have so much experience in all types of venues; you will be glad you have a band who knows exactly what they need to do to put on a seamless performance. They keep the music process worry-free so you can focus on other aspects of wedding planning. A piece of unsolicited advice if I may, book BeachNights for everything: ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty. It was so much easier being able to talk to ONE person and coordinate all music through ONE group rather than having 4 music vendors involved in the planning process. They take time to learn about you as a couple, your music wants and needs, likes and dislikes so that every single song is exactly what you want and how you pictured your music on your wedding day. THANK YOU Chris and team for making our wedding dreams come true!

Hi! My name is Nick. I fell in love with photography as a child through my love for music; I was obsessed with album covers and photos that would draw my eye and immediately tell me a story. I have a passion for art and my way of expressing it has always been through music and photography. I love hanging out with my friends and being social. Going out to dinner, having drinks, and spending time with my family are a few of my favorite things.

I’ve worked with Nick on multiple occasions and he is one of the most gifted photographers I know. There are very few photographers that I will recommend on a regular basis and Nick is at the top of the list. He has an incredible vision for capturing amazing photos and his editing style is in elite company. I’m always impressed and inspired when I see his finished work. On top everything else, he is very easy to get along with and always a complete professional. Nick is everything you could ask for in a photographer and more.

The Toasted Brew

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,850
  • Serves West Haven, CT

With 15 years and over 200 weddings of experience, I have made it a mission to make it more than just showing up and playing music. It’s about making sure the night flows without awkward pauses and confusion, crowd interaction and not hiding “behind the DJ booth” all night. From pre wedding meetings deciding what were going to do and when, guiding you on the best lay out to fit your crowd size and venue their isn’t much I cant help with.

Robert was one of the BEST choices we made for our 2024 wedding! From our first phone call, we knew he was special and would help make our day amazing. His attention to detail, his go with the flow attitude, and comedic timing as an MC made our guests feel comfortable and kept them on the dance floor. We made several changes in the moment and Robert was able to execute perfectly. I can’t recommend the Toasted brew enough, I can say confidently that if I were to plan our wedding again, Robert would be my first call.

I am jumping into my 8th bridal season and am more passionate about it than ever before! Self-proclaimed selfie queen, instagram addict, social media connoisseur, skincare obsessor, pro chit chatter, youtube veteran, og beauty lover, and bridal magician.

I know it sounds crazy, but I may or may not have picked my wedding date based on Nikki and Rachel's schedule. Nikki did my makeup for a friend's wedding 2 years ago, and after feeling the most beautiful I'd ever felt in my life I knew I was going to book her when my time came around. The entire process with Nikki was easy, from my trial to the logistics and all in between. Her work speaks for itself. I can't even count the number of people who came up to me and told me my makeup was insanely gorgeous on my wedding day, and I felt that way too. The one aspect that I feel shouldn't be overlooked is the experience Nikki and my beauty time provided for me on that day. When I say down in the chair, it was the first time I started to get nervous and thought, "Oh my god, this is really happening," but sitting there with Nikki and chitchatting and giggling made my nerves go away. I was so sad when the getting ready part was over because I had so much fun hanging out with them LOL. Thank you, thank you, thank you Nikki for making me feel so insanely beautiful, and for being such a big part of my wedding day. My blast of a morning set the tone for the rest of the day!

i consider myself too much of a hopeless romantic and a laid-back photographer to bring the best in you! i’ve been told that nurture is my superpower, and documenting love stories is my outlet. over the years i’ve learned that when it comes to being creative, art it’s what makes me feel alive, that's why my approach to photography is to have an "as-personal-as-possible" experience with my couples by valuing authenticity and connection. to make the whole process feel light and easy! your life’s best moments and stages deserve to be documented in a way that tells YOUR story.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Juan. His kindness, professionalism, and creativity truly set him apart in the world of wedding photography. The way he captures photos and memories is refreshingly unique, offering a perspective that’s both intimate and artistically stunning. His work doesn’t just document the day; it tells a story in the most beautiful way possible. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a photographer who goes above and beyond.

With a passion for providing high-quality services and an obsession with Makeup since the age of 3, I’ve been involved in the beauty industry since 2007. My mission is to offer my brides everything they need to look and feel their best.

Wow, if I could have invited Abby & Bailey to actually ATTEND my wedding - I would have because that's how much I loved working with them and having them be a part of my wedding day! From the very first call (9 months before my wedding), Abby was beyond incredible. She immediately made me feel like I could rely on her and I trusted that she would make sure my wedding look was everything I wanted it to be. In the 9 months leading up to the wedding, she answered every single one of my questions within hours of me sending an email. The day of was perfect - Abby and Bailey executed my vision beyond my wildest dreams! They were excellent with my mom, MIL, SIL, and cousins and did a great job keeping us on schedule. Not only are they extremely talented, but they are also FUN and personable! When looking for "the one" for hair and make-up for your wedding it's, of course, important that they are skilled, but to me, it was equally important that they fit the vibe on my wedding day since they are with you all day. Abby excelled in all those areas! Book her ASAP :-)

Despite the POURING RAIN on our wedding day - they didn't miss a beat! They followed us everywhere to make sure they got the perfect footage - yet still giving us our own privacy. The video took only a few short months to get back and we LOVE it so much! The flow, editing, music & timing are just what we could have imagined!

Hey there. When we shoot a wedding, we know what it feels like, firsthand. The only regret of our own wedding was that we didn't invest in a videographer ourselves. To be able to go back and watch the best day of your life unfold is paramount. That's where we come in.   Our signature films are a cinematic look at your day, from getting ready to the 'I do' moment, to partying it up all night long. It's a perfect length to share on social media with loved ones, near and far. We also offer documentary length, ceremony only, and custom packages as well. ​

Since 2016, I have been capturing weddings with a passion for storytelling through photography. Over the years, I’ve had the honor of photographing couples all over the country, from the coastlines of New England to the hills of California. Now based in Meridian, Idaho, I bring my years of experience, a creative eye, and a detail-oriented approach to the Pacific Northwest and beyond. My focus is on capturing authentic moments and creating timeless, emotional imagery to cherish forever. Whether it's an intimate elopement or a grand celebration, I aim to document the beauty of your big day in a way that reflects your love story.

The photos are simply stunning—crystal clear, beautifully composed, and truly capture the essence of our special moments. Not to mention, he’s naturally funny, the guy was an absolute delight to work with, making the whole process effortless and enjoyable. From the initial planning to the final shots, he was professional, patient, and incredibly attentive to detail especially when we kissed haha! We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to help us remember these unforgettable moments! Highly recommend!

We specialize in vibrant and dynamic 3D flower preservation, transforming your wedding flowers into beautiful pieces of art. Maintaining close to original color and shape of your flowers, laid out in our Evergreen signature style and displayed in custom made wood shadow boxes brings a new modern look to flower preservation. Visit our webpage and instagram to learn more about our work. Please reach out directly at our website to inquire that your date is available. We kindly suggest to book as soon as you can as we are a limited capacity studio and can only take in a certain number of customers per month.

I had the most beautiful bouquet for my City Hall civil ceremony, but no firm plans for the bouquet post-wedding. My florist friend shared Jackie's contact information with me and I contacted her to see if she had the capacity for a last-minute bouquet preservation. Luckily, she had availability and a few hours later, I was taking an impromptu day trip to Cold Spring with my husband. Jackie met us at the station and was so incredibly kind. She gave us a few suggestions of eateries to check out while we were in town. We had a symbolic ceremony a week later and I was so pleased with the service received with my first bouquet, that I asked Jackie to preserve that bouquet as well. Throughout both bouquet preservations, Jackie was very responsive and answered any questions I had. She shared a layout of both bouquets prior to framing and packaged up both frames nicely, with bags, (this is a big deal when you're taking the train) when we returned to Cold Spring for pickup. I'd highly recommend her services to preserve a piece of your special day.
