“We had such an easy time working with Enchanted Celebrations staff that I would jump at choosing them again! Blair and Summer were professional, thorough, empathetic and communicated very clearly all the different features of the videography plans so that we felt like we chose the right plan for our wedding day. As time came closer, Summer was diligent at working with us on the details for the day-of, and then a few days before the wedding we confirmed everything with Edwin, our assigned videographer. Edwin’s style was spot-on with what we imagined and the videos came out beautiful and so much quicker than we expected them. We’re delighted with our experience!”

Danny Captures Photography

Hi, I'm Danny! My passion is to capture couples & their love story in a timeless way. I like to describe my style as a fusion between story-telling & editorial. I lean into true-to-life colors with a warm ambience and posing that's timeless but also interwoven with an editorial flare that's unique, artistic, and stylish. I also love incorporating story-telling stills that involve movement rather than a bunch of photos that feel "stiff" or overly posed. Story-telling moments bring wedding galleries life! I’d love the opportunity to connect with you, and hear more about your wedding vision!!

I am a Connecticut-based wedding and portrait photographer obsessed with candid moments, real emotion, and the connections between human beings. I strive to capture life as we actually live it: full of beauty and roughness, joy and struggle, extravagance and simplicity. When I photograph you, I’m not thinking about getting likes on social media. I’m thinking about what will make your heart grow three times its size. I’m thinking about what will make you ugly-cry, looking back. I’m thinking about you seeing how awesome and truly loved you are.

“This summer I had the pleasure of having Cate photograph my backyard micro wedding. She was great to work with and made sure to do meetings with us prior to the wedding to plan the photos we wanted and map out the timing of the day. This way it was an extremely smooth process for family photos prior and after the ceremony. Cate made the wedding photo experience so fun and the results were incredible! I couldn’t have asked for better photos. She got me a sneak peek within 24hrs and by 2-3 months our edited gallery was ready. Overall, our wedding moments wouldn’t be what they are without Cate’s amazing photos. I highly recommend her for your wedding.”

I’m a husband, a dad, and a photographer. I love spending time with my family and cannot get enough of my kids. If I could dance and be silly with them all day long, that’s what I’d do. It could be the Frozen soundtrack or 90’s hip-hop, either will work. I’m easily lost listening to music (I use to be a battle DJ). Exploring and be adventurous are good things. I’m always thinking of the next destination and where we can go. It doesn’t have to be a big trip. It could be down a country road, driving by the horse farm, around the corner from my house. I’m a dreamer.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I'll start by saying I am SO thankful my sister in law found and hired Tim as the photographer for her wedding a few years back because since then, he's become our 'family photographer'. The second my now husband and I met Tim at their wedding, we knew without a doubt we wanted him as our photographer when we got married.. and we are so incredibly happy we did! Tim' is not only an amazing photographer who can camera-awkward couples (us) look like their shooting for a magazine, but he is all around such a genuine, awesome person who makes you feel like you're hanging out with a friend. From our engagement photos to our wedding day, Tim captured so many beautiful moments that we will cherish forever. And we can't wait till the next person in our family gets married so we can see him again :)”

David's career began when he switched majors from graphic design to photography in college. His style of photography is unique, taking advantage of natural light, insisting on quality, and bringing out the best in his subjects. Many years of experience have given him the ability to make the best of his surroundings and create a comfortable environment while managing a shoot.

“We recently had the incredible opportunity to work with David as our wedding photographer, and our experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From our initial meeting, David demonstrated a deep understanding of our vision and was genuinely enthusiastic about capturing our special day. His helpfulness and guidance throughout the entire process were invaluable. David also did our engagement shoot, and the photos turned out stunning. He has a remarkable ability to capture the essence of the moment, and those initial photos only heightened our excitement for the wedding day. On the day of our wedding, David’s presence was a true blessing. He kept everyone calm and composed, which is no small feat on such an emotional day. His approach was patient and unhurried, allowing us to fully enjoy each moment without feeling rushed. David’s skill in directing group shots was impressive, ensuring everyone knew where to be and what to do, which made for smooth and efficient photo sessions. One of the things we appreciated most was David’s consideration for our comfort. He allowed us to take breaks when needed, maintaining a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere throughout the day. This thoughtful approach helped us stay refreshed and present, making the entire experience more memorable. The pictures David took were nothing short of breathtaking. Each photo beautifully captured the joy, love, and magic of our wedding day. Rachel, who assisted David, was equally fantastic. Her attention to detail and support throughout the day enhanced the overall experience and ensured everything went smoothly. In conclusion, we cannot recommend David highly enough. His and Rachel’s professionalism, talent, and warm personalities made our wedding day truly unforgettable. We are forever grateful for the incredible photos and the wonderful memories they captured for us. Thank you, David and Rachel, for your exceptional work and dedication.”

“Ephe was the best photographer ever. I was one of the last people in my friend group to get married and I’ve seen some photography disasters happen the day of. Ephe had none of that and all of my friends loved her and her work ethic. She is very punctual and organized. She understood the vibe that I was going for and she had my sneak peeks and all of my wedding pictures edited super quick! I wish I lived closer to Ephe so I could hire her for all of my photography needs.”

Timeless, editorial imagery with a warm, documentary approach. From the grand, luxurious details to the quiet, candid glances you share when no one’s watching, I’m there to preserve it all with intention. If you’re dreaming of wedding photos that feel both refined and deeply personal, I’d love to bring your vision to life.

“I can’t begin express how memorable it was to work with Destiny on our engagement shoot. I often get nervous and very unsure of myself when I know my photo will be taken, but Destiny made the entire experience easy, fun, and reassuring. She had an exciting vision for our downtown New Haven shoot (the location in which my Fiancé and I had our first several dates), which turned into beautiful pieces of artwork that surpassed anything I imagined. Despite the drizzle that evening, she was able to take what Mother Nature gave us and shoot stunning images that will be admired for the rest of our life. From the first phone call, to the moment we met for the shoot, I knew I could trust her. I can’t wait to work with her for the big day!”

“Rob Skinner Photography was an ideal choice for our elopement at city hall. From the very beginning, Rob’s communication was prompt, clear, and reassuring, making the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. On the day itself, he arrived early and guided us in capturing natural, genuine moments. He helped us pose and move in ways that felt relaxed and authentic. The final photos are stunning, with a level of detail my husband and I truly value. Beyond the reasonable pricing for a one-hour elopement, what stood out most was how comfortable he made us feel throughout the entire experience. In just one hour, he captured over 1,000 photos, ensuring no special moment was missed. We’re so happy we chose Rob Skinner Photography and would highly recommend him to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.”

“We hired Jenna for our wedding and it was a great experience. She was able to make the day filled with more laughs than awkward moments. For someone like myself who hates their picture taken she was able to get me and my wife to laugh and enjoy the photo session. Jenna was also able to make the experience personal and easy to ask her any questions. The pictures came out amazing and the turn around time was quick. Jenna made some of the most creative photos I’ve ever seen, the poses were definitely awkward at first but truly were a master piece. If you want someone who is going to enhance your day and get amazing photos/memories that will last a life time go with Jenna !”

“Jenni is an absolute gem of a human and a phenomenal photographer. She is so sweet and such a lovely personality. We first worked with Jenni to take our engagement photos, and my husband and I immediately felt comfortable and familiar with her. We are not comfortable in front of the camera at all, but Jenni somehow made us feel like we'd been taking photos together with her for years. After our engagement shoot, I knew Jenni needed to be our wedding photographer. We more or less picked our wedding date based on her availability! A few weeks after booking our wedding with Jenni, she sent us the loveliest care package with a typewriter-written note and a few goodies. She puts so much thought and care into everything she does! On the day of the wedding, Jenni immediately hopped into action. She was patient, kind, and had such confidence in what she was doing (which was so needed, considering you're dealing with not just us as the couple, but our families as well). We were barely past the weekend after our wedding, and we already have sneak peeks! Jenni is a master! Looking at what she was able to capture is truly amazing. I usually do not like looking at photos of myself, but I can't stop looking at these pictures!! I can't believe the gallery she sent is just the sneak peeks - I can't wait to see what else she captured when we receive the full gallery in a few weeks! Jenni is truly the best at what she does. I can't recommend her enough!!”

Not only were they extremely kind and patient, but they had great upbeat energy that made the whole process of hundreds of photos seem like a breeze. They captured every moment perfectly and made sure to accommodate all of our needs. Now the quality? Trevauhn knocked it out of the park. The photos speak for themselves. He caught several angles of each moment and found the best opportunities to fit our pictures seamlessly into the venue and really use it to our advantage. Not only that but everything looked clean and crisp with the ideal vision that we were trying to maintain. He didn't have to do a million crazy edits with lighting either because he and his team were adjusting in the moment for lighting. This team knows what they're doing and they're incredible at it.

When looking back at photographs from my life, it’s the candid images—captured by and with close friends and family—that bring memories and emotions flooding back. The ones that truly stick. That’s how I want your wedding photos to feel for the rest of your life—like a warm, familiar hug. I’ve always believed the most significant moments a wedding photographer can capture are those untouched by their own influence. My intent is to observe and document your day as it unfolds—creating authentic images that stand alone as works of art and, together, tell a story that truly reflects your relationship, your family, and your closest friends.

“From the first meeting with Tyler, we knew that we were beginning not only a working relationship, but also a friendship with one of the kindest and coolest. When my husband and I spoke about booking a wedding photographer, our priorities were someone who made us feel comfortable, someone who shot with film, someone who didn’t force us into specific poses, and someone who captured the day’s moments naturally. We didn’t want to spend our wedding day posing for pictures. Tyler did all of that for us and more. He was there to capture everything from the first bite of breakfast to the final dance. So many of our family and friends have spoken to his kindness towards them throughout our wedding day. There’s so much good we could say about Tyler. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. At the end of it, the magnificent album we received seemed like a small perk to the friend we made.”

She responded promptly to any text we sent and made sure she captured everything we wanted. For our wedding day, we hired a second shooter (Sam) who was just as great. Both girls arrived early to help take pictures getting ready. They were fun and easygoing, and never made us feel awkward with posed pictures. They made sure to get every shot we requested. And get this - Marissa pulled me aside DURING the reception and already had incredible sneak peeks for me to see! Her turn-around time was faster than we could have ever imagined and everyone can't stop talking about how breathtaking our light and airy photos came out!

“If I could give Mariah more than 5 stars I would. She was absolutely amazing at my wedding and it could not have been a better day because of her. She caught so many details that I would have never seen nor caught with the craziness of being the bride on the big day. She made me feel comfortable and excited to take more pictures. She was open to any of the crazy ideas I had and handled everything with ease! I absolutely could not recommend more!”

Hi, I'm Stephanie! I specialize in backyard weddings and small celebrations. I connect best with couples who might include their dog in the ceremony, make their day uniquely theirs, and don't sweat the small stuff. A jar of wildflowers is as interesting to me as a perfectly crafted orchid bouquet. I love documenting the small moments and details, and I see beauty everywhere on a wedding day. My face always hurts from smiling so much on my drive home! I know how to take charge for posed portraits (and always do some!) but I prefer to capture moments as they happen. I've been a photographer full-time for over fifteen years.

“Stephanie is a wonderful photographer. From the first moment I contacted her to receiving my pictures and Wedding book, I had a such a wonderful experience. Stephanie has an ability like no other. Her presence is one that brings you a calmness, which on your wedding day you will appreciate! When I look at my wedding pictures, I can still smell the fragrance of the food we ate, the emotions I was feeling, and the way the sun and air felt on my face. Stephanie did that. She captured all those little things that are so important and magical. If my house had more walls they would be filled with her photographs.”

Hi there! My name is Chris Randall. I'm a wedding photographer based in New Haven, Connecticut. I've been photographing weddings for twelve years and have photographed over 100 weddings. I absolutely love capturing the magic that exists between two people on the biggest day of their lives! It’s a responsibility that I don’t take lightly and I see it as an honor.

“Chris photographed my wedding and did an amazing job. He was somehow everywhere and out of sight at the same time! His energy really helped create genuine reactions and smiles for all our photos. We received our pictures in record time! I would use Chris again in a heartbeat.”
