Hi Friends I’m Kaley! I have been lead/owner of KTP for the past 7 years & continue to grow. With my strong love for capturing love stories I started dipping my toes into the wedding industry 4 years ago. Over the years I have found that I love destination & elopement weddings. There’s just something that gets me in my feels seeing couples that love each other, stand amongst family and vow their love.

I 100% recommend having Kaley at your wedding or next event! She did content creation for my wedding and was one of the easiest parts of the whole day! She really captured every moment perfectly and shared over so much content with me the same evening of my wedding! I am so glad I had her there with me for my day and if you’re even thinking of hiring her book now before she gets completely booked up!

Hi, I'm Theresa, a wedding photographer inspired by nature's beauty and the stories we all hope to pass down. Along with my amazing team of photographers (plus a videographer!), our work emphasizes natural prompts and real emotions to create incredible imagery that captures the vibrant energy of wedding celebrations. We’re set apart by the fact that we know how to maximize shotlists so our couples can skip the photo marathons and enjoy their own cocktail hour (which is rare, I might add).

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Teresa and her team was the easiest and best decision we made when wedding planning. She was wonderful to work with and from our first Zoom call together I just knew she understood our vision. I am just blown away with how she, Katherine, and Olivia were able to capture so many special moments with our people. She and her team pivoted amazingly well through changing plans due to weather and other minor challenges through out the day. Even with a rainy, windy day we had the best wedding pictures I’ve ever seen! Each photo shows all of the love that was in the room during our wedding and I am so grateful to be able to relive our day forever thanks to Teresa and her team.

  • Serves West Simsbury, CT

I am the one behind the camera. The one guiding you every step of the way, and giving you direction, but mostly I’m there to capture your love and to tell your story. Essentially it’s all about you… your style, your vision. It’s the in-betweens, the messy, the real, the bursts of laughter, the tears… that’s the stuff that I have a true love for. Photography is genuinely my passion. My goal is to tell your love story and get to know you and document your special day.

West and Spring Photography were the perfect choice for our wedding photography. They were very responsive and flexible throughout the planning process, and their communication was excellent. The quality of their work is simply beautiful - their photographs captured the natural, candid moments of our special day in such a lovely way. Mary, our lead photographer, was amazing to work with. Despite us having to reschedule our wedding multiple times, she made every date work seamlessly. We received a few sneak peek photos the day after our wedding, and the full gallery came just a few short weeks later. We are thrilled with the results and would highly recommend West and Spring Photography to any couple in need of a talented wedding photographer.

  • Serves West Simsbury, CT

We’re Erin and Peter and we started this company in 2012. Since then we’ve quit our jobs and photographed 275+ weddings all over the east coast (but we’re willing to travel anywhere!) and we couldn’t love it more! Our photography style is cozy, natural and organic, and we love to focus on the in-between moments and the genuine emotions. We don’t pose people but instead direct them to do things that will bring out their real personalities and reactions which help us to get the most authentic photos.

Erin and Peter are absolutely amazing to work with! They are such a sweet & fun couple who you just enjoy being around. They are so easy to get along with and know exactly what they’re doing- we trusted them with our day and they exceeded expectations! They make you feel comfortable and at ease on a potentially stressful day and work with you to make sure you get everything out of the day that you’re looking for. Everyone in our bridal party complimented how efficient and smooth our pictures were at the wedding. Not to mention the pictures are GORGEOUS- they are so talented at capturing natural moments, never forcing stiff or awkward posing. Would recommend them to anyone getting married!!!

Beth Zink Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,800
  • Serves West Simsbury, CT

I am a photographer and storyteller. For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by stories and traditions. I am passionate about documenting real human connections and I love learning all the meanings behind details at weddings and celebrations. When I’m not photographing, I can be found spending time with family and friends, exploring new places, and craving tacos. I love meeting new people, making new friends, and connecting with my clients. I can’t wait to get to know you, so let’s talk!

We worked with Beth as our wedding photographer and I 100% would recommend her services! Since we had a very small wedding, we opted to do a post-wedding shoot rather than engagement shoot. This meant that we met Beth for the first time during our actual wedding day-- some would probably be nervous about this, but we got to know each other right away and were so comfortable working with her. She was so professional and really scoped out the sights all over our beautiful venue so that we were able to take so many different pictures in a variety of settings. For our post-wedding shoot, we did pictures at Chick Fila & the beach, and even though I was nervous about going inside the Chick Fila to take pictures, Beth was super professional and all business and had no qualms about taking pictures in busy places. We also got all of our pictures in only a few weeks and the quality is superb! Overall, we got a fantastic value for a very reasonable price and I am so glad we booked Beth as our wedding photographer!

Love, Jackie Wedding Photography

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,850
  • Serves West Simsbury, CT

Hi I'm Jackie, and I literally love my job! I’m a New England-based photographer for the last 18 years. I have to admit though, I love taking this one woman show on the road and travel makes me the happiest. I have been lucky enough to shoot destination weddings in England, Iceland, and Alaska. I would describe my photography style as very laid back and natural. The little in between moments make for the best photos, and I’m not about capturing awkward prom poses and forced smiles. I want the real stuff - the stuff that’ll make you laugh till your cheeks hurt and will make your heart beat faster.

Jackie was the best to work with. I'm not huge on being photographed, but she was great at making us feel comfortable. She was also easy to get in touch with, responding to emails within a few days. I'm glad we did an engagement shoot to get to know her a little before the wedding day and help ease the photography anxiety. We got a handful of sneak peek shots a few weeks after the wedding, which was exciting, followed by the full set of photos a few weeks after that. The photos are beautiful and capture our day perfectly. I don't even remember seeing her at the ceremony I was so focused on everything else, but she captured it and all our emotions beautifully. She also was very good at getting through the portrait photos quickly, as I had a lot of family members to move around. Very happy to have worked with her.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so happy to have hired Angelica and her team. From the start she listened to what we needed, catered to our vision for our wedding photos, and delivered breathtaking images. Any questions we had she answered, so it was great to have quick communication with her, as most of our vendors took almost a week to get back to us! We go through our photos all the time, and I can honestly say our wedding photos are so much better than my friend's photos! We also had a full album and parent albums in our collection. Our main album came in a gorgeous wooden box. Our parent's album were custom created for them, instead of a replica. We even got a few large photos to decorate our home. They are absolutely gorgeous! We were very happy we did purchase them and Angelica delivered them within two to three months from our wedding! Thanks to her always following up with us, we were able to get our albums designed, our wall art photos chosen, and helped us guide our parents as to what photos to choose for their albums. I have friends still waiting for their albums and photos and it's been almost a year. You can't go wrong with Angelica Criscuolo Photography. She's sweet, a professional, and when it came time to family photos, she was the boss and took charged! We loved it as we have a very boisterous family. Thank you Angelica!

I knew she was special from our first chat but meeting her in person and spending our special day with her exceeded my expectations.

She approaches each wedding with a fresh perspective, always striving to capture the emotions, connections, and details that make each couple's day truly unique.

I had the pleasure of working with Cate on one of my recent weddings, and she is a joy to work with! Not only is Cate an incredibly talented photographer, but she also made the entire process of capturing the wedding day memories a breeze. She made my job as a wedding planner much easier by keeping everything on schedule and collaborating closely with the rest of the wedding team. Most importantly, Cate made the couple feel comfortable and at ease, adding humor into the day, allowing them to relax and enjoy the day, while getting incredibly authentic photos. The resulting photos were absolutely stunning and captured the essence of the couple's special day. It is so much fun to work with an artistic photographer, rather than a standard wedding photographer, because they see the day as an art piece, capturing little moments that others would let pass by. I would highly recommend Caterina to anyone in need of a talented and fun wedding photographer!

This might surprise you...Prior to photography, I was a professional concert dancer. So I understand what it's like to be in the spotlight. And I understand how to use my training as a dancer to make you look stunning in front of the camera. I know the mechanics of the body and how to pose you to look your best. And on your wedding day, that is exactly how you should feel.

We are wedding videographers (Savstrom Studios) who recently had the privilege of working alongside Lauren at a styled photo shoot in St. Paul. We have known Lauren for awhile and love her work so it was a lot fun getting to work together and seeing her creative process. Lauren has incredible talent for styling, directing, and posing couples, as well as capturing wedding details. She does an amazing job capturing everything she needs, collaborating with other vendors, and keeping the atmosphere fun for everyone. Highly recommend Lauren for couples looking for beautiful, timeless photos and an amazing client experience!

When you elope in the middle of a pandemic, it matters all the more that you love your photographer--since they'll be the only other person at your wedding. :) And in short, we couldn't be happier that ours was Shawnee. She has such a gift and a love for the work she does—and it shows. We knew she was the right person from the moment we met on Zoom--she is warm and kind, asked all the right questions, and instantly put us at ease. My partner and I eloped at the end of October 2020 in DC, just before the election. It was a whirlwind moment for so many reasons, especially as a queer couple. And it mattered to us that the person who captured those treasured memories, really understood what that moment meant to us. Everyone who sees our photos marvels at how wonderful they are—and no doubt we look great, but Shawnee’s warmth and direction and stellar eye really made all the difference. Vibing with your photographer matters—we’re so grateful to have found one with such grace and as much love for her art as Shawnee. <3

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 photographed our Halloween wedding and we couldn't imagine having anyone else! We met Meaghan and Evan last October when they shot our engagement photos. They were more than willing to trudge through our favorite park and stop at all our favorite spots to get some beautiful photos we used for our save the date. We got to get to know them a little more over at our favorite little ramen restaurant after the session and of course we were instantly sold! Meaghan was super communicative and responded to every email I sent her pretty much right away every single time. As we got closer to the wedding day, she sent an incredibly detailed questionnaire. It covered everything from our most important shots to what weird family dynamics she should be conscious of; we sincerely appreciated this level of care, especially as a queer couple with some iffy family things. When I was hiring vendors, it was extremely important to me to find vendors who were queer/queer friendly and body positive, and Meaghan checked off both boxes in spades. My wife and I both have huge body insecurities and are deeply self-conscious of photos-but Meaghan made us both feel so beautiful. I was never even aware of the parts of myself I am usually hyper aware of because Meaghan and Evan both made us feel so comfortable. We were able to laugh and feel every emotion without once worrying about how we would look in the photos. On the day of, Meaghan kept us right on track without rushing us or making us feel stressed. We were definitely running behind at points but Meaghan handled it all with grace and helped me keep my head above water the whole time. They captured every moment in such a storybook way that we are able to talk about and remember every detail of the day based on the photos. This gallery is such a keepsake and such a special reminder of the best day of our lives. Its so heartwarming to look back and see how happy we and our guests look. And my wife and I both couldn’t have asked for more stunning photos of ourselves. We both look and feel so feminine, so whimsical, so magical. She captured our authentic selves, which is what makes her photos so unique and beautiful. I can't wait to order our prints and have these photos in our home forever! Thank you, Meaghan and Evan. There's so much more I could say but I'll leave off with, we are so grateful to have had you on our day. We love our photos so much.

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!!!

My couples mean the world to me. I love hearing their stories, what makes them tick, and the things that are important to them. It’s my goal to capture them exactly the way they are; how they crack jokes, poke fun, dance together, hold one another. I’m there to capture the genuine tears, the laughs, how you just fit so well together. With directive posing, I bring out real chemistry and personalities. With my laid back vibe, I’ll ensure even the photo-heavy parts of the day are a breeze. I believe every single part of a wedding should be a blast and that every couple should be celebrated in their own unique way.

I could not have asked for a better person to capture my wedding! On our wedding day, it poured rain and I was absolutely devastated that the outdoor wedding I had been dreaming of was not happening. As I was sitting there faced with that reality, about to ruin my makeup with tears, Andrea swooped in like a superhero and genuinely made me feel like the rain was a good thing. She was the only voice of reason that made me feel like everything was still perfect. She ran around in the rain with us all day capturing the most gorgeous photos and I didn’t feel like I missed out at all. She was prepared with clear umbrellas and we actually had fun! She is also just so talented, the pictures and the saturation are just absolutely gorgeous, and not only that but she also has an absolute talent for capturing joy and movement. All my vendors have chosen to use her photos from my wedding on their websites, seriously just hire her!!!

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.

Warren was our wedding photographer and he was absolutely incredible! He made us feel so comfortable in our engagement and wedding photos. I had felt nervous going into our engagement photos but he made it so fun and made us feel confident! He has a really laid back style that matched perfectly with ours - he is flexible and can roll with changes, even managing to hold our dog while he was taking photos of us after we were done doing photos with her included! Not to mention, the pictures came out absolutely beautiful (we can't stop looking at them!). I cannot recommend him enough.

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.

Nithya is a wonderful photographer- very easy to work with and flexible. We just received our pictures and they’re exactly what I asked for! Nithya was such a calming presence during our wedding and extremely professional and helpful. We’re both people who are a bit camera shy which probably made Nithya’s job so much harder - and yet - she made every effort to make us comfortable.

Yaritza Colon Photography

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.

Amanda is truly one of the sweetest humans I’ve had the pleasure of meeting! From our first call, it felt like we were old friends catching up. Amanda is incredibly professional and personable, and of course her work is absolutely gorgeous. We did an engagement session with Amanda a few months before the wedding which helped us get comfortable with her and allowed us to get to know her better. Aside from that, Amanda frequently checked in to make sure planning was going smoothly and was incredibly responsive when we had questions! On the wedding day, Amanda arrived early and I was so excited to see her and she instantly eased my anxiety. Throughout the day, Amanda calmed my nerves and was so supportive and helpful with anything that we needed! Amanda also made sure that she captured all of the specific shots that we requested and made sure she did not leaving without ensuring that we were happy! We cannot wait to see our photos!

My name is Nicole, I've been doing wedding and portrait photography for 9 years. In 2020, my husband Ben and I got married and now work together doing Wedding Photo/Video. He's been such a blessing, we work together so well. We love to capture not only those big moments but the smaller special things. All those little moments that will last a lifetime.

Nicole and Ben did both our wedding, and anniversary shots. We loved how natural all the photos came out! Highlighting our most authentic selves in the best way! Both have an amazing attention to detail and are always ready to capture the perfect shot… expect to hear the camera clicking in moments you’d least expect! And last but not least both are so kind and fun loving which has a natural way of putting you at ease. 10/10!

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

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.
