From the moment we booked MC Visuals for our wedding, Kalena's communication was easy, fast, and friendly. Kalena and her second shooter were amazing the entire day, capturing every detail perfectly. Their professionalism and attention to detail were incredible - they thought of unique group poses that we wouldn't have come up with on our own and perfectly captured the beautiful scenery of our venue, exactly the way I wanted!

Melanie Ruth Photography 

5.0

West Hartford, CT
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,200

Photography has always been a passion of mine even after I started my career as a science teacher. I wake up everyday and teach 100+ kids in 9th and 10th grade about the wonder and beauty of the sciences. I also get to wake up everyday with a camera in hand, and connect to loved ones starting out on new paths. I have this strong desire to create art and speak the truth of other’s lives. Everyday I have an excitement for what's to come, and who I will be blessed with to capture. What never meant to become a business, slowly turned into this beautiful opportunity to be connected to so many amazing humans and invest in their lives.

Melanie was the best photographer for our wedding in May 2024 in Boston!!!! She was the perfect combination of professional, fun, on-top of her game, but also super chill and go with the flow. Which is exactly what we were looking for in all of our vendors. She made everyone feel so comfortable and would ask us funny or heart felt questions when we were taking group couple pictures to ensure she captured raw emotion and to keep things interesting. There was never a dull moment. Everyone from our bridal party family came up to me after and said how much they loved Melanie and her team. Couldn't recommend her enough!!!!!!!

  • Serves West Hartford, CT

Welcome! I am a daughter of Vietnamese immigrants who chose to move to Connecticut, where I have lived for most of my life. I love the change of seasons in this part of the country and all the rich backdrops it brings for imagery (and mental health walks and runs). My cultural heritage is the foundation for my photographic passion. My camera allows me to work where I know I work best, behind-the-scenes, front row at some of the most profound moments in people's lives. In a pinch though, I'll be there carrying the train, making sure you don't get your shoes dirty and helping to support you where I can throughout your wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
After meeting her for our engagement session, we immediately clicked with her and appreciated her attention to detail, which comes across so perfectly in her shots. She made us as fairly camera shy people comfortable with her (and her camera!). On wedding day, she was organized and executed our plans for multiple family/friend pictures seamlessly. We are so grateful that she captured our special day and can cherish her photos for the rest of our lives!

Aren Paradis Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves West Hartford, CT

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!

Hi! My name is Colleen Humel and I started Colleen Humel Photography when I was gifted my first camera at 16 years old. My love for photography began long before then with my uncle always carrying around his camera taking pictures of everything. I am so thankful for him because now I have countless memories I can look back to. One of the reasons I chose to become a photographer is because I love being able to capture those special memories for others. I was also a collegiate swimmer in my past time which was another reason stopping moments in time became so important to me.

I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.
