Danny Captures Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (26 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Southbury, CT

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!!

We hope to work with Danny Captures Photography again in the future as he truly helped make our special day even more perfect.”

Hi, I'm Vinny Alves! I am a husband, father of two and wedding photographer in my free time. I am passionate for what I do. My job? To capture it all in a way that feels natural, cinematic, and timeless. But more than just taking photos, I’m here to guide you through the day, making sure you feel comfortable, confident, and fully present in every moment. My style? Cinematic, with a mix of artistic, classic, and documentary influences. That means your photos will feel like a movie—elegant, emotional, and storytelling-driven—while still being true to who you are.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I had the honor of having Vinny capture one of the most important moments of my life, my proposal to my fiancée. I chose him because I knew he would be the perfect person for such a special occasion, and he exceeded every expectation. On a snowy day, during a storm, Vinny never hesitated for a second. Despite the freezing cold, he dedicated hours with us in the park, making sure every detail was captured beautifully. The photos turned out extraordinary, truly beyond what we could have imagined. What impressed me the most was his care and dedication. My fiancée and I are not used to posing for photos, but Vinny guided us patiently and naturally through every step, making us feel comfortable and confident. His attention to detail, creativity, and professionalism transformed that day into timeless memories. I am deeply grateful for what he did for us and recommend his services without hesitation. Vinny is an outstanding professional who pours his heart into his work, and the results speak for themselves.”

Oh, hey! I’m Dana. I am a free-spirit with a true love for connection and raw emotion. I’ve been known to get caught up in the experience and have a passion for storytelling, so my photography is candid and emotive. I’m also a sucker for a gorgeous, natural backdrop so there’s nothing better than capturing an honest moment with a killer landscape. ​ When I don’t have a camera in my hand or a client on the therapy couch, I’m busy being a Mom to twins and wife to my partner, Brandi. You can also find me decorating our home or researching our next spontaneous adventure.

“We have been using Dana for about 2 years now, and she has photographed myself and family from fall portraits to a surprise vow renewals and continuously leaves us speechless with every ‘unveiling’. Dana is easy to work with. Her sessions are effortless and honestly most times we all can’t stop laughing. Her eye for detail is spot on and her creativity in the moment is so much fun to be apart of. I highly recommend using Dana for your photography use because you will not be disappointed!”

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.”

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!”

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.

“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 !”

Hi, it's Jenni, I am a couples and wedding photographer based in Connecticut. I love hikes and adventures, nature is my natural habitat and my biggest dream is to travel the world.

“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!!”

“Just like the title says, Jonathan and his team were nothing short of amazing! From our first meeting, I could tell that he knew what he was doing and he took it seriously. That took a lot of pressure off my husband and I. He helped us create an inspo board for poses and suggested small changes in our wedding day timeline to make things go smoother. When I tell you, his suggestions worked to a T! - I think it's because he's been around so many weddings and has seen things go well and go wrong. My wedding planner raved about him all day and that says a lot! He and his assistant arrived early, scoped out the venue/grounds and was very polite while doing their due diligence all day. I highly recommend Jonathan and Elegant Production Photography. If you're on the fence about him, let this be your sign: Hire him! You won't be disappointed.”

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.

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.”

We loved how his pictures captured the essence of moments without resorting to excessive editing or effects. What you can't tell from his website is that Chris is great and easy to work with. He was responsive, suggested great locations for a photo shoot, adapted plans to stay on schedule, and was an overall calming presence. We also loved that Chris gave us full rights to our photos, meaning that we don't have to pay to download or print them. Overall very highly recommended!”

“Debi did a great job with communication, and the quality of her work is outstanding. Pricing is very reasonable for couples on a budget, and she is very flexible with scheduling. She honored our requests and got the shots we wanted. Turnaround time is very quick (2 weeks). We couldn’t be happier with the results and plan to use her in the future for other life events!”

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,700
  • Serves Southbury, CT

Full-time wedding photographer currently based in Central Connecticut. I love traveling, Thai food, all dogs, almost every type of music, and pretty much anything related to astronomy. My couples become my friends instantly, no really – as soon as we have our first chat together it’s DONE. BFFs for life. Be prepared for creating secret handshakes, inside jokes, and a ton of memories together!

“Kelsey was truly the best person to capture our wedding day, not just because of her amazing photography skills but also because of her effervescent and playful energy that truly made our day so fun. We were able to do our engagement shoot with Kelsey at our wedding venue, and she made us feel so comfortable even though neither my husband or I had much experience getting our photos taken. As soon as we saw the gorgeous photos from our engagement shoot, we knew we had made the right choice. When our wedding day finally came, Kelsey and her second shooter, Zach, were so fun to be around and made everyone in our wedding party and families feel happy and included. Every moment felt celebratory and fun, but they also made sure we stuck to our schedule and got all our key photos done! We are so so happy with how the photos came out. Kelsey captured the real emotions and the love that surrounded us on our wedding day, and I can’t thank her enough for the gift of being able to look back on that day through her photographs.”

Love, Jackie Wedding Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Southbury, CT

Love, Jackie Weddings blends refined editorial imagery with honest, documentary storytelling. With more than two decades of experience, Jackie brings a calm, steady presence to every celebration, offering thoughtful direction when needed while leaving space for the real moments to unfold. The result is photography that feels elegant, emotional, and unmistakably yours.

“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.”
