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
Kim was incredible to work with! She was so helpful in creating the timeline for our wedding day and giving us suggestions on how to make everything flow. She was on time, kept track of all the photos we wanted and made sure that everyone was in the right place at the right time. The photos are stunning too - I can’t wait to get the whole album back. I couldn’t recommend her more.

Rachel photographed our rehearsal dinner and wedding day and I had an amazing experience working with her! Her work is incredible and she captured our memories beautifully. Her timeless, classic style is exactly what I envisioned. She made everyone feel so comfortable, she even learned the names of our immediate family members (my MIL still raves about how much she loves Rachel)! We enjoyed spending most of our wedding day with her, she is lovely and made taking lots of photos so fun. She was also very experienced in creating a photography timeline and helped prioritize what was important to us on our wedding day. I highly recommend Rachel for all your photography needs!

Aren Paradis Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Bristol, 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.

Aren was an absolutely wonderful to work with for our wedding. From the first call, to engagement session, to our wedding day we felt so comfortable with putting the trust of capturing our day in her hands. She made sure to complete almost all of our shot list before the ceremony, leaving ample time to capture the reception and candid moments that were so important to us. Her style is exactly what we were looking for, and her photos speak for themselves. She truly captured the energy and spirit of our celebration in such a beautiful way. As someone who feels extremely awkward in front of the camera, I highly recommend doing an engagement session with her, as it gave us all a chance to get to know each other and for me to get a little more comfortable in front of the camera. We are beyond grateful to her for her thoroughness and creative eye for capturing so many memories from a year's worth of planning and such a few short hours of celebrating!

Imagine this: it's your wedding day. You're somehow feeling both insanely excited and at peace. You made your day into a little universe that represents you and your partner. The details are super personal, the atmosphere feels like home, and you can't wait to see it full of your favorite people. You’re thinking about being a total goofball with your love, the enthusiastic conversations, your friends losing their minds during the first kiss. You know that song that you and your partner sing in the car? When it comes on, you'll grab their hand and run to the dance floor. And in 50 years, you'll see those exactly moments as they were

I could not have asked for a better person to capture my wedding! On our wedding day, it poured rain and I was absolutely devastated that the outdoor wedding I had been dreaming of was not happening. As I was sitting there faced with that reality, about to ruin my makeup with tears, Andrea swooped in like a superhero and genuinely made me feel like the rain was a good thing. She was the only voice of reason that made me feel like everything was still perfect. She ran around in the rain with us all day capturing the most gorgeous photos and I didn’t feel like I missed out at all. She was prepared with clear umbrellas and we actually had fun! She is also just so talented, the pictures and the saturation are just absolutely gorgeous, and not only that but she also has an absolute talent for capturing joy and movement. All my vendors have chosen to use her photos from my wedding on their websites, seriously just hire her!!!

She kept us feeling comfortable, ready, and excited for our big day. On the day of the wedding they were absolutely incredible. They lead our group and kept the photos quick, organized, and lead us to the most beautiful back drops. They made us feel like stars and continued to check in with us to make sure our needs were being met. Our photos came back so quick and they blew us away. They are absolutely gorgeous. They completely captured the vision and understood what we were looking for. We highly recommend Katie!

Anytime I needed something she took over and handled it to make sure we had nothing to worry about. I would recommend Emma to anybody as she truly cares about you, your wedding party, and making sure you have the best day ever.

Catherine Johanna Photography beautifully preserves timeless moments with a documentary approach. Specializing in weddings and portrait photography, Catherine, blends artistry and professionalism seamlessly. She specializes in making her couples feel comfortable in front of her camera. From unexpected laughter, and emotional moments to stunning portraits with character, joy, and authentic emotion, Catherine focuses on the uniqueness of every couple to transform their special moments into enduring memories. Serving Connecticut, the greater New England area & beyond. Recent international weddings include Vienna Austria and St Andrews Scotland.

Hiring Catherine was by far our best decision for our wedding day. We clicked from the start! After seeing her website, I knew we had to work with her. At first my husband was unsure because we hadn't settled on a budget yet, but once we had our consult he was in! Once we had our engagement session, he was also a raving fan. He's not crazy about photos and he actually enjoyed the experience! Catherine made it feel so natural and so easy. He had imagined photography to be really slow and heavily posed and boring, but Catherine had prompts to keep us moving, laughing and focused on each other. For our wedding day, she did the ABSOLUTE most amazing job with her second photographer. They captured literally everything that was important to us and better than we ever could have imagined. Then, don't get us started on the album - she encouraged us to have an album reveal party with our wedding parties and parents and no one could believe the quality weight and luxury of the leather album. I know we'll be showing our children and grandchildren this album when the time comes. Catherine, thank you from the bottom of our hearts and if you're wondering, YES go hire her now!

Wedding and event photographer and djs in CT. Lyrical Lens Events performs weddings, mitzvahs, quinceañeras, and more. We connect with clients to create personalized, unforgettable moments through photography, dj, lighting and photobooth services.

We hired Lyrical Lens for our wedding in Sept 2020. We found it very easy because they offered DJ and photography, and also a Photo Booth. The process of booking was super easy, and prior to the wedding they gave me access to a site to input the songs I wanted for each part of the ceremony and reception. Super easy. I also loved that we got two photographers. At the wedding itself, the music was on point, keeping the dance floor full all night long. Connie and the other photographer really snapped all of the action throughout the night. We got so many comments from our friends about how great our photographers were and that they were “everywhere,” and even a comment about how Connie had stood on chairs to try to get the perfect shot. We have great shots of everyone dancing having a great time, group shots, family shots, etc. I highly recommend Lyrical Lens for all of your wedding needs.

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!!!!!!!

Photographing love fuels my soul. Documenting the beautiful, gratitude-filled, raw, happy, intimate moments.

Haley second shot a wedding for me this month and she was an absolute dream come true: communicative, upbeat, and excited to be there. She stayed on top of the schedule, kept in detailed touch with me leading up to the day, and was very good at checking in with me consistently while we were shooting together. Her kind and upbeat energy was exactly what I was looking for in a collaborator, and her work is beyond gorgeous to boot. I am so grateful to have her on my team, and can't wait for so many more adventures together!
