This little hobby that started back in 2015 has become an absolute dream come true!! Photographing weddings is my second favorite part of this job, with working alongside my husband to serve the most incredible couples being the first! I knew from the start that I wanted my business to be focused on creating an amazing wedding experience that caters to each couple in a unique and memorable way! Our focus throughout the entire process is to make things easy, stress-free, and most of all FUN! Outside of this business, we also train Ninja Warrior and love exploring throughout New England & the Northeast!

We booked Chelsea to do our engagement and wedding photos, and she did not disappoint! She gives clear instructions and has several poses prepared to make us feel comfortable and look our best. Our wedding did not go as planned, but she jumped into action and took control to make sure things went as smoothly as possible. We had so much fun, and can't wait to work with her again!

Our dream is to bring the people part of our family on a European tour one day!

Awarded Best of Zola
Moments by Melanie is absolutely amazing! Melanie and Brian both had such a calming presence as we were getting ready and helped us plan out our day to best capture all of the shots we wanted. Not only are all of our wedding portraits stunning, but Melanie and Brian caught so many candids, details, and laughs we would have otherwise missed without their photos. They were also so flexible with our timeline and allowed us multiple venues for capturing memories. They work very well as a team to capture every moment and even our guests had glowing comments for them after the wedding - they will certainly exceed your expectations! Melanie's blog posts of photos and her memories of the day are an added bonus and are keepsakes of their own. Professional, attentive, easy to work with, unobtrusive, creative, and personable all describe Melanie and Brian. We love looking back at all of our images and reliving all of the highlights of the day. We highly recommend them!

Nick is an absolutely incredible photographer! He has a great eye, he’s super professional & timely and his photos are beautiful!

He helped us choose the perfect spot for our engagement photos and he was always right there for a candid shot during our reception. Not only is Nick a phenomenal photographer, but he’s such a genuine person too. Our wedding date was changed 3 times due to Covid and we had to change the venue once as well. He was happy to change the date/location with us each time and always made sure to check in and see how we were holding up during the planning. I promise you won’t be disappointed by hiring Nick! We are so thankful for all the amazing photos he took for us!

Hi there! I'm Ashley! I'm a go with the flow, free-spirited human so I find connecting with my clients rather easily. I'm not your average photographer ..... I do things a little differently, but that's what makes the photoshoots with me so unique and special. I like to capture the in-between moments, the heart-pounding, can't live without your love moments. I am here to be your biggest hype woman and professional third wheel! I focus on preserving the raw emotion and intimate moments rather than creating extremely posed and formal shots.

We are Maegan and Joe DeCrescenzo, and the little peanut in the picture above is our daughter Juniper. We photograph couples and families during some of their lives most exciting moments. After almost 11 years of photographing weddings together we still get misty eyed at almost every wedding. We know first hand how awkward it can feel to be in front of the camera (umm...what do I do with my hands?), and thankfully know just what to do to make you feel at ease. With a mix of candid and gentle guiding and prompts we make sure you don't just get great photos, you also have a lot of fun.

Maegan and Joe were the photography team that you dream of when planning your wedding. They made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera, and they captured the most beautiful photographs of our day! Maegan also shot our engagement pictures, which involved going to two separate locations, and the entire day ran smoothly. Both times, we had sneak peak photos within the span of a few days, and our full wedding album was complete in under two months! There was not a single picture that we didn't cry over, and our day would not have run half as smoothly without Maegan and Joe by our sides. They were the best duo we could have ever hoped for, and I would not hesitate to work with them again for any future photoshoots!

I am a Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer based in Hartford, Connecticut. I take you on a journey of Storytelling through Capturing Memories. In my journey with photography, you will be able to immerse yourself in that feeling of exploring a new place for the very first time, to freeze and re-live the moment forever. My journey started in Australia. Love of photography and always searching for a new adventure let me do weddings, engagement, and many other aspects of photography. My passion is photography every time I shoot an event.

Kani was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. Their communication style is easygoing, responsive, and accommodating. Kani was flexible in tailoring the photography timeline to our preferences. The quality of their work is outstanding - the photos beautifully capture genuine emotions and special moments with artistic composition. We wanted to do something unique for our engagement shoot that required significant travel. Despite flight delays that made for an extra long day, Kani maintained a positive attitude and took time to get fantastic photos in multiple locations that we'll treasure. Overall, Kani is a talented, dedicated photographer who cares about clients and produces fantastic work and memories.

Deirdre Photography

  • Serves Bristol, CT

I began capturing images in high school at a young age and fell in love with the process of capturing raw moments on camera. I decided to pursue my dream and go to school in Boston for photography. Alongside this, I have my sociology degree and really understand and connect with so many people. To me, building strong connections with my clients is so important and I find myself being able to easily talk to people of all walks of life. My knowledge of people and passion for photography sparked my pathway into wedding photography; capturing love filled couples and all the emotions that come with getting married.

Working with Deirdre was one of the best parts of our wedding! We were glad to meet her beforehand at the engagement shoot - she really helped us feel comfortable and went above and beyond to get shots in some different locations that held special meaning for us. At the wedding, it is SO good to have a familiar face. She again made not just my husband and I but the whole wedding party feel comfortable. She dealt with family chaos like it was no problem at all (when people tell you that family photos are the most stressful part of the day - BELIEVE THEM). She has an excellent eye for detail and captured some truly beautiful shots. Our sneak peeks are great - I know the full album is going to be special!!

Almost 20 years of experience and I still get as excited as I did when I first started photographing events! I got my BFA in photojournalism at Rochester Institute of Technology and my common sense from a well-lived, full life. From intimate weekday elopements to full scale destination events that require a team of photographers, I have done it all. I focus on telling the most full and vibrant story of your event, so you can look back and feel like you didn't missed a thing.

I've known Carla and have worked with her for over a decade! Being on the professional side of this industry, I am able to see not just how a vendor works with their couples but also the heart, soul, and absolute dedication they pour into every element behind the scenes that make such an impact in the service they provide. Something I've always witnessed with Carla is how personal she makes her process with her clients, which is so necessary, especially from a photography perspective! Your photographer is the person who captures every moment of your day you can think, and all the ones you can't. Having someone give you a forever memory of the real emotion, reactions, and who you are is so essential to the success and enjoyment of not just the day but the time leading up to it. That someone being able to connect with you is what allows that to happen, and Carla takes pride in how personal and truly special she makes going about this relationship. Her work is stunning, she is honest and forthcoming, and she has such a passion for what she does that it truly sets her apart from many!! Some of the best moments from events that I didn't know anyone other than the couple still hold such a special place in my heart because of the photos she's captured. I can only assume that the impact it has on the actual couple and family is insurmountably greater than what I feel to this day!

Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving and laughing. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I got you!

HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts!

My mom is originally from Switzerland and my dad from Jamaica, so you know I am always hungry for adventures (and new places to binge eat at).

From the moment we met Ashley Cynthia Photography, we knew we had found our perfect wedding photographer. Their communication style was fun and enjoyable, with constant banter that put us at ease. Ashley and her crew were fantastic, always making sure we were on top of the timeline and getting the exact photos we wanted. They brought out the best in us in every single shot, capturing all the special moments of our day. From Day 1, Ashley passed our vibe check instantly and was always just a text, email or call away, giddy about our nifty and crazy ideas. Her team was incredibly flexible, and we had an absolute blast working with them. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and videographer to document our wedding - they truly made the experience unforgettable.

We’re creators, travelers, and artists, but foremost: storytellers. Every wedding is a personal project for us, with unique couples, love stories, families and locations. We strive to tell that story through our lens, and create a one-of-a-kind piece of artwork you can enjoy for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
We just received our photos back from our wedding about a month ago, and we were blown away. We had a feeling the photos would be wonderful because of how professional and attentive our photographer (Athel) was, but of course there is always still that suspense. The team at Indigo and Ivory was wonderful throughout the entire process, always communicative, and it felt like they really cared. Athel even drove a good distance to attend an open house with us at our venue, to get some ideas ahead of time around what settings would be best. He was lovely throughout the whole event, super accommodating of our special requests, and captured all the most important moments. We cannot recommend them enough, the images came out amazing and we are getting tons of compliments! If there is anything I would do differently (and this is not any knock on Indigo and Ivory, this is just general advice for anyone looking to hire any photographer), I probably would have went ahead and added a second photographer for the day (which is something they offer). I wanted to cut costs a bit so we didn't go for it - but of course if you have two you will make sure to get all the different angles you are hoping for and then each person can spend a bit more time with both wedding parties to capture more of those candid moments. I also wish I had made sure to put together a better list of shots that I wanted - once again, these are items that I recommend in general and has nothing to do with Indigo and Ivory. If there are certain things you want your photographer to capture, make sure to write them down and communicate! With all that being said, even if you go with just one photographer and you happen to forget to write down all the specific moments or you just want things to be more free-flow - I 100% recommend Indigo and Ivory for you! They are wonderful and I'm so happy we have these gorgeous images to treasure for years to come.
