I cannot express enough how grateful we are to have found Chris to capture our special day. However, it goes beyond just that singular day. We had first met with Chris in person for a meet and greet, which I would have never thought to play such an integral role in the process. He demonstrated so much passion for the trade and was already so invested in making sure he was exactly the photographer we were looking for so we could truly get the most out of our day. He also took the time to visit the venue after our meeting to get an idea of what he'd be working with. Chris went above and beyond, every step of the way. He even made it a point to come during the rehearsal as well to be even further prepared. Everything flowed organically with his direction which took away so much stress from the day. Professionalism aside, Chris is just a good dude all around. We're so happy to come away from this experience with not only an amazing portfolio of memories, but a passionate and charismatic friend.

We got married at the Publick House in Sturbridge, MA in June 2024, and we had such a great experience! The place is made up of a few buildings- my (now) husband was getting ready in one building and I in another. Tony was great with communication; he kept me posted about when he was on his way, when he got to my husband's room, and when he was coming to my room. He was also quick to send sneak peak pics! We told him we didn't like posed pictures, we only wanted a few with our family and wedding party, and then to take the rest of us just being us. The pictures were great! We got the posed photos we wanted, and he was great about my idea of the wedding party being chased by a blow-up dinosaur (seriously)! The rest of the photos were wonderful, just all of us having a good time; he captured them so well! He was very professional and he made the time doing the posed pictures fun. I would DEFINITELY recommend Tony for your event!

  • Serves Middletown, CT

I was born and raised in the smallest little state, Rhode Island! With that comes a huge appreciation for the coast and a realization that magic can be found in even the smallest of details. Growing up in a small town where time seems to go by slower helped me learn the value of genuine connections which have now become apart of who I am.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are SO glad we worked with Bri! From start to finish she was supportive, communicative, and onboard with our elopement. My husband and I are not comfortable in front of the camera and she made it so easy to get beautiful photos! I let Bri use her artistic vision to get a lot of our photos, and I am so happy I did. Her and Lucas were fabulous - and essential to keeping our elopement as quiet as possible. I will definitely be reaching out to Bri if we ever need any other photos done! Thank you so so much for capturing our day!!

We are an easy going couple duo, who specializes in cinematic films & moody photography. We so hope we get the opportunity to celebrate your special day with you!! (Please contact us through our website to get in touch for your special day)

Where do I even begin? My husband and I got married in August of this year and from the moment we talked with Destiny and Mac, we knew we needed them to be a part of our day. We instantly connected as they are so personable, energetic, and compassionate about their work. We had the chance to not only work with them for our wedding but they also shot our ”save the date” session as well. We had so much fun with them and they made us feel so comfortable. Not only are they incredible at what they do, but they are great people and we kept saying we gained two great friends from this. We couldn’t be happier with our video as it captures everything from our day in a unique style. Their talent is truly unmatched. Thank you Mac and Destiny!!

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
Teresa is INCREDIBLE. She is hands down the best photographer out there. From our engagement session to our wedding, Teresa was extremely communicative, answering any and all questions we had. She has this amazing energy and creativity that really shows through in the photos she takes. At our wedding, she carefully considered the light, the locations of our photos, and I can honestly say I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE every single photo from our day. The genuine happiness, the laughter, the tears- everything is so perfectly captured. Teresa is professional, and she invested her time, not only in making sure our engagement and wedding photos were great, but in Jordan and I as a couple. Her kindness, artistic talent, and ability to capture a moment perfectly solidifies her as the best photographer out there. I could not recommend her enough!

I am a self-proclaimed nerd and total goofball who is always up for an adventure, especially if it means going to the beach. I love to travel. I have been blessed to find “home” on three different continents, and I speak fluent English, Spanish and Portuguese. My husband Mike, sons Javi & Ro, baby Soleil and pup Tag are my greatest motivation. They simultaneously drive me crazy and keep me grounded. The love, strength and energy I get from them shapes my perspective on the world, and is something that I want to share with you. In addition to all that, I happen to be one of the luckiest people in the world – I love my job!

Bridget was amazing! She took our engagement and wedding photos and they came out wonderful! She was able to capture the best moments of the day!

My husband and I are enjoying living in the quiet woods of Haddam, CT with our fur babes Kenai and Topaz. Brian and I have been together since 2015 and got married in 2022 at a brewery. Born in New Haven, we’ve had the incredible experience of living around the country including Alaska, Oregon and Colorado. My perfect day is sitting outside in the autumn air drinking espresso while listening to a podcast or reading The Secret, again. The show Outlander is a guilty pleasure though Brian and I are always quoting New Girl and Bob’s Burgers. I love planning adventures, thrillers, football Sundays, wholesome conversation, cozy vibes and markets.

I am so happy that we found Ashley on Instagram!! Not only did I have beautiful photos, but Ashley was so fun, talented, and knew exactly how to execute our "vision" I feel like she was such a great listener and she was so easy to talk to when we first spoke on the phone. Our Engagement shoot was so fun!! It was freezing so we decided to get creative and ended up with better photos than we could have imagined. When Ashley walked in to the Bridal suite on our wedding day I could feel her excitement and she totally brought amazing energy that made me so excited to the day to come. She was by our side the whole day and captured so many beautiful moments. I feel like I hit the jackpot with her! Definitely take a look at her work she does not disappoint.

Layne Ann Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Middletown, CT

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.

Communication throughout the process was clear and timely, the photographer arrived on time and helped us actually stay on schedule during our special day, all with a smile!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

“Our photographer really took the time to connect with us, and we found that we shared a lot of common interests! She made us feel very comfortable, and completely followed our desires for candid and more relaxed photos. She was amazing at posing and directing us, as well as going with the flow and capturing what was happening in the moment. We couldn’t be more happy! We love all of the photos taken outside- our couples, wedding party, and golden hour photos feel so genuine and organic and I think that’s what our photographer really excelled in. Our golden hour photos specifically are very romantic and magical- definitely our favorites! I cannot give enough praise to the level of communication given during the planning process. Wedding planning is hard and it gets tricky to keep track of everything. From Darcy at the start getting us booked to Hannah throughout the planning process, I was so grateful for the texts and emails keeping me updated and on track. I am very grateful to have found OLAS, and have already recommended them to my friends getting married next year.”

In the 20 years that I've been photographing professionally, I’ve honed my skill of knowing when to step in and make things happen, and when to step back and simply *allow* things to happen. Documenting the REAL emotion of the day is how we capture those picture-perfect moments. They happen organically, not by force, and I promise you: we're not going to miss ANY of them. = )

Awarded Best of Zola
Christopher was SO much fun to work with throughout the entire process. From the engagement photos, the rehearsal dinner to the wedding itself, Christopher was there finding the best shots. His demeanor and communication style put us at ease and actually made the process fun! The quality (and quantity!) of the team's work was impressive and they managed to capture the most memorable and funny moments that we still get to relive to this day. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey.

From our first interaction, Sean and his team at Portraits By Sean were prompt, personable, and clear in their communication. Their exceptional, professional, and quick work captured the essence of our special day perfectly. Sean was laid back and brought great energy to our wedding, seamlessly capturing all the important moments without ever being intrusive. We had nothing but a positive and truly exceptional experience working with Sean from start to finish. Not only were our photos top-notch, but he took the time to get to know us as a couple and was able to beautifully document all the candid, unscripted moments that made our wedding day so memorable. I'd give Sean 10 stars if I could!

My name is Ali Cushing, a NY-based photographer, working near and far, capturing life, love, and letting people be themselves. My goal first and foremost is contributing to you having a wonderful experience and getting to live in the moment by being first your friend, and second your photographer; making the photos about the day and not the day about the photos. I approach each opportunity with personalized care and whatever your photographic goals and day's plans, I’d love to be a part of and to document your story. All couples of all genders, ethnicities, ages, faiths, shapes and abilities, are more than welcome.

I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Ali! She reached out to me on Zola and I am so glad she did. I was impressed with her portfolio and I really loved seeing how she would capture little moments in the weddings she had done. We set up a video call before booking and we clicked. She is very calm and helped with my pre-wedding nerves. She worked with us on a payment plan and she was always very quick to respond to any of my questions. She really listened to what we wanted. She got to the venue early to scout out different shots and came to check in with me a couple of times before we even began taking photos, which I did not expect but was very sweet and considerate of her. When we were taking photos, she really helped to guide the more “posed” photos but she also captured a lot of beautiful candid moments. We had so many guests come up to us and compliment her and that was before we even got the photos back. She sent us our sneak peeks the next day and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. She captured so many beautiful moments and her style is exactly what we wanted. Nothing felt “overly edited” just perfectly genuine. I cannot recommend Ali enough. I cannot wait to see the full gallery of photos because I know they will be nothing short of perfect.
