The Talented Photographer was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Alec's communication style was fun, professional, and incredibly personable. He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction. The quality of Alec's work was absolutely stunning - we got a wonderful variety of candids, formal shots, and editorial-style pictures that captured all the special moments of our day. Alec has an incredible eye for the right shots, and the final photos are absolutely gorgeous. Despite a complicated location schedule that I was worried about, Alec made the whole day seamless, traveling to over 4 different spots to ensure we got all the groupings and special shots we wanted.

Awarded Best of Zola
Watching my sister get married was one of the proudest moments of my life. I was afraid that photos wouldn’t really show how happy she was, but they did, and then some. She looks radiant in every shot, and I can see the pure joy on her face. The video made me cry all over again, like I was right there in the moment. They also captured the family moments, like when my dad held her hand, and those are memories we’ll never lose. I love that they didn’t just focus on the couple but also on the family and friends. They caught so much love in the air, and that makes these pictures priceless. My sister has something she can hold onto forever, and I do too.

I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in New York and Connecticut. I capture moments that feel alive—honest, emotional, and deeply meaningful. While I love beautifully decorated weddings, I’m equally passionate about photographing celebrations that are simple, imperfect, and real. Your florals don’t need to be full, and your venue doesn’t need to be luxurious. What matters most is your connection. I’m especially drawn to noticing the most touching moments in any setting—your emotions, your interactions, and the quiet love you share.

Awarded Best of Zola

I'm Meghan Ann Imagery! I'm an artist, storyteller, and lover of love. It's fitting I ended up as a wedding photographer, right? I'm based in Connecticut but wishing for the dream inquiries that will send me to Alaska, Colorado, or some place new.

Meghan Ann Imagery LLC was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, her communication was very clear, and on a personal level she is incredibly kind and sweet to deal with. We weren't initially planning to have a photographer since this was our very small "legal" wedding and we were planning a larger destination wedding, but we're so glad we decided to book Meghan last minute. On Mother's Day, she gladly accepted the job and captured every special moment beautifully. The quality of her work was tremendous, exceeding our expectations with how fast she turned around our photos, and we now have precious memories to cherish forever. We are absolutely thrilled with the photos and cannot recommend Meghan Ann Imagery LLC highly enough.

Hi! I'm Nina! I'm an ex-Brooklynite residing in the beautiful hills of New England. I'm an analog (meaning film) and digital photographer specializing in documentary, editorial, and photojournalistic-style wedding photography. That means more images that are true to you and the moments you live, and fewer posed ones -- though we'll make sure to capture some of those too! With a background in commercial photography I am well versed in creating magical photo sets that capture the grandest and the most subtle moments of your day, and everything in-between. Your pictures are going to be the talk of the town!

As a wedding photographer with many years of experience, I have come to appreciate the beauty of genuine moments and the power of the little details. They provide a timeless and elegant look that truly captures the essence of a wedding day. I am based in New England, but I travel often for weddings! Some of my favorite places to shoot are the beaches and the city of Newport, RI. There is nothing like the White Mountains in New Hampshire. The old cobblestone roads of Boston and the skyline of NYC. Charleston, SC is somewhere I would like to call home one day but for now traveling there for weddings and engagements might be my favorite.

Andrea she made my day run so smoothly! She made everyone in my wedding party so comfortable. I was able to take golden hour photos and actually enjoy my cocktail hour. Andrea also sends you a sneak peak within a couple of days so you get some bomb photos quickly while you wait on your gallery. Her assistant Justine was so fun too and kept all the groomsman in line. She really payed attention to mine and my husbands personalities and was able to really capture us through the lens. I didn’t get a videographer for my wedding and I don’t regret it one bit. I feel like she captured our day through photos.

What obsesses me with photography the most is that I get to capture a moment in time that we all can recall back to. This can be a simple photo with a friend or an intimate moment with a loved one. All these moments hold a special place in all of us. This is what your wedding day is supposed to be about. A day filled with the memories of all your loved ones as you celebrate the start of a new journey together. A day filled with laughter, cheers, and tears and I want to be there to capture it all! If are planning a wedding, elopement, or engagement, please feel free to browse my work and if it resonates with you don't hesitate to reach out!

My father was a professional photographer for many years so when planning our wedding, my husband and I knew that finding a talented photographer was at the top of our priority list. We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have discovered Kevin because he exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we met Kevin, he had a way of making us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. He not only captured stunning posed photos but also effortlessly seized beautiful candid moments. Kevin's talent was apparent when he was able to work with our overcast weather and managed to frame and capture each shot like a true work of art. Every single photo we received perfectly conveyed the emotions and energy of our special day. What truly amazed us was the speed at which he delivered about 47 sneak-peek photos just one day after the wedding, and each of them was breathtakingly beautiful. My father would have undoubtedly been proud and delighted with the work Kevin accomplished on our wedding day. Kevin's talent has left us with cherished memories in the form of these stunning photographs.

Hey! My name is Bill. I’ve been practicing photography since 2016, where I started in automotive (if you can guess what I named my business after, bonus points). My whole process is structured mainly to eliminate the stress of worrying about your timeline on your special day. It starts with a consultation, and ends with a call a month before to solidify your schedule. My style is a blend of documentary and artistic, meaning the candid photos are what really matter, but the posed photos are what might print and frame. Regardless, your day is my focus (pun intended). If you think we’d vibe, let’s chat and make your special day great!

I am so happy you are here! You are either engaged, pregnant, you just became parents, or you simply love pretty, romantic, dreamy pictures like I do. I'm Jessie, originally from The Netherlands. Friends and family describe me as the most romantic dreamer they know. I love the sparkling joy of engaged couples, the romantic vibe during a wedding, the glow of expectant mothers, and the pure love between new parents and their children.

From the moment I first saw Jessie's work, I knew I wanted her to be our wedding photographer. And I every second of my experience with Jessie since then was just amazing! Jessie was among the very first vendors I booked, so I had a lot of questions and a lot of items to still plan/work through. Jessie was so unbelievably patient and helpful in talking everything through with me, and I felt so confident that she prioritized our best interest with everything she recommended! Jessie is unbelievably knowledgeable about her art and does a beautiful, beautiful job capturing elegance and romance in all of her photos. I particularly love how Jessie just "sees" when/where to get perfect lighting, and her talent is obvious in any photo you see of her's. We did our engagement shoot with Jessie in NYC on the water at sunrise (which Jessie drove down early for!) and it was my husband's and my first time in front of the camera for a professional shoot like that. Both my husband and I are very uncomfortable in front of the camera and were worried about whether we would need to learn/practice how to pose for photos before the engagement shoot and wedding. We felt so comfortable with Jessie from the very start, and on top of that, Jessie was very detailed-oriented in walking us through every movement and pose during the shoot itself. We were amazed at how natural we looked in every photo! Jessie is also super well-organized and intentional about everything, which is a must-have on your wedding day! I had put so much though into all of the photos I was going to want from my wedding, and on the day of, it was an absolute out-of-body experience. Jessie struck the perfect balance of helping direct us/everyone and making sure we got everything we needed, but was also very patient and accommodating with us and all of our people throughout the entire day. I am struggling to find the words to articulate just how much I LOVED having Jessie as our wedding photographer, and am clearly making up for that with a lengthy review, but the last thing I'll say is this: Jessie was so incredible to have on our vendor team from the very first day to the last, but at the end of the day, what matters most is how you like your photos. Jessie sent us a sneak peek of our wedding photos 2 days after our wedding while my husband and I were on our honeymoon, and not only did I burst into tears at how beautiful they all were, but I also could not stop looking at them. We ultimately decided that I was going to leave my phone in the hotel room when we went out because I couldn't stop myself from looking at the photos over and over and over again. I am only able to upload 10 photos with my review, and I had a difficult time picking just 10 to showcase just how amazed we were/are with them! We picked a handful of the photos we particularly love because Jessie did such an incredible job of capturing the authenticity of our emotions and energy that you can feel it through the photo. I cannot wait until the day we can use Jessie again when we are ready for a newborn photoshoot! Thank you, Jessie and team, SOOO much for everything!
