WildRoot Moments 

5.0

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,999
  • Serves Hamden, CT

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. Please contact me on Instagram or fill out my submission form on my website as I'm not on ZOLA often.

From the moment we first spoke with Destiny from WildRoot Moments, we were impressed by her thorough, and professional communication style. The quality of their work is phenomenal. Destiny and her team went above and beyond on our wedding day. Pushing the timeline (even stretching it in certain ways lol!) while also quickly directing all those involved to ensure the photos were done smoothly. Even after an unexpected 1.5 hour delay that caused our ceremony and entire timeline for the day to be ruined, the team quickly adjusted, made a new timeline/game plan and created pure MAGIC. As if the delay wasn’t enough trouble, we were then met with a surprise tornado for our OUTDOOR, BACKYARD wedding so again, all plans that we had made for specific moments to be captured had to be changed, (& quickly because that delay lol!). I truly believe any other team at that point would have thrown in the towel & said “well we did our best.” But luckily for us, we had been blessed with a true angel that day. Destiny's professionalism ensured our day was not ruined and was going to be every bit as perfect as we imagined despite the outside circumstances. The photos she captured, beautifully reflect the love between my husband and I, and one would never know the true chaos happening behind the scenes all because of her skillful work. We are eternally grateful to Destiny and the WildRoot Moments team for capturing our special day, one that we had waited 9 years for, in such a heartwarming way.. so if you’ve found yourself reading this, look no further. Destiny & the rest of the WildRoot Moments team are your people!

Max was an absolute trooper and was great to work with. We were running behind from the start but he was great about giving directions, making suggestions, and getting what we could within such a tight schedule. Max was flexible and easy to work with. He was able to get some amazing shots even though we had to change the location of our first look (twice!). If we asked "Can we....?" The answer was always Yes. He made it happen. He was fully committed to giving us his best from the time he got to the venue.

Dreamscape Studio Photography 
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Hamden, CT

Shari (a west coast girl) and Jason (an east coast guy) began their photography careers in 2001 after meeting at a small art school in Western Massachusetts. From there, they went on to assist various commercial photographers in New York City where they eventually explored the world of wedding and portrait photography. At that time, wedding photography was especially traditional. Many wedding days were all about staged moments or re-enactments. However, a few studios in Manhattan were beginning to experiment with a more editorial and photo-journalistic approach, which immediately appealed to the young photographers.

Symula Media Group was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. Communication was extremely fluid - Jenn called us immediately to chat and ensure we were on the same page. Any vision we had, she met with amazing results.

Rayleen is perfection! If you are looking for a photographer that will not only give you the best photos ever, but also become your friend then Rayleen is your girl! I was very specific about the photographer I was looking for as our venue is very dark and moody so I wanted a photographer that does that same thing. From the moment we met Rayleen we knew she was the one. We loved that we were vibing with her right away and she got that we did not want a lot of posed portraits. We were looking for a lot more candid photos. We did out engagement shoot at the brewery I work at and the photos came out amazing. We knew then that we had picked the right photographer. We had the best day taking photos, we never felt rushed or over photographed. We got our photos back in about 15 weeks which I thought was great even though she kept apologizing it was taking so long! Thank you Rayleen for not only being an amazing photographer, but also for becoming a friend!

Love Knot Photography

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

Ultimately that's what it's all about, serving my clients and creating an amazing experience.

Randall was AMAZING to work with! I'm sure as a wedding photographer you need to deal with a lot of unique personalities and unexpected situations. Well I can tell you that Randall is an expert in both of these skills! Like every family, we had our share of characters at the wedding. Unlike most, we had to reschedule (twice), move venues, AND had an additional small ceremony (outside in unseasonable snow) in the height of COVID (Oct 2020). Randall was accommodating, kind, and creative. I'd give him more stars if I could!!

MSMP Media was the perfect choice for our wedding. Beyond the fact that their editing style was what we were looking for with bright photos, their team was incredible. We had the pleasure of working with their West Michigan Team. Jordan was fantastic and even got me a small birthday gift because my wedding was on my birthday! It was small details like this that really made our experience so great. She was great at getting us ready for photos with great directions. None of the wedding party were huge "photo" people, but she made us feel comfortable to allow for such great photos. Her eye for shots was fantastic. We have gotten so many compliments on our photos from everyone that we have shared them with! Beyond the photos themselves and the actual wedding day, Marisa had great communication. We received sneak peak photos within a day of the wedding and had the entire album less than a month out of the wedding. From what we have been told, this is a great timeline. We are so happy to have booked MSMP!

I can't express enough how incredible Sarah and Peter at CityLux Studios are. Finding the right photographer was honestly one of the most overwhelming tasks during my wedding planning process. I wanted every moment of our day captured perfectly, and I can genuinely say CityLux Studios exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I started my search, they were the very first photographers I reached out to, and I knew from that first conversation they were the right choice. Sarah made such an impact on me from the very first phone call. She was incredibly personable, helpful, and immediately grasped the vision I had for our wedding. We worked together seamlessly from our engagement shoot, to our rehearsal, and then of course, the wedding itself. Every single photo turned out better than I ever imagined. Their photography style is absolutely stunning—elegant, timeless, and perfectly tailored to capture exactly what you want. They’re not only skilled but also intuitive, knowing just how to bring your vision to life. As a Type A bride with tons of questions, detailed vision boards, and a lot of ideas, I was a little anxious about making sure everything went smoothly. But Sarah was with me every step of the way, always available to make sure we were aligned and on the same page. Choosing to work with CityLux Studios was one of the best decisions I made for our wedding. They truly made the entire weekend feel special, and the photos are nothing short of breathtaking. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also genuinely invested in making your day perfect, look no further—CityLux Studios is everything you could ask for and more.

We were stoked. He was amazing to work with on the wedding day - punctual, friendly, got all the requested shots, and the whole bridal party loved him. We got our pictures back today - and they’re so much better than we could have dreamed of. It’s no wonder he was featured in Vogue - his work is artistic, candid, and beautiful.

A photographer with 10 years of experience specializing in love stories, portraiture, and immortalizing a moment filled to the brim with feeling. I’m French, which means I have aways been attracted to beauty, art, and romance & love to have a good time; my photography embodies this. When I am not behind the camera I enjoy eating good food and drinking wine (again, I’m French), going on roadtrips with my wonderful boyfriend, Max, and cuddling up with a good book - my favorite is The Pillars of the Earth - and my cutie pie cat, Jack.

Coco posed as a photographer who was taking photos in the gallery my art is in. When I showed up to the gallery she was taking photos of the gallery owner. In another life she must be an actor because I had no idea she was there for my engagement which made the surprise even better. Once the secret was out we walked from the gallery to the hotel and got photos on the street. She was open to any and all suggestions and easily let us pivot from outdoor photos to inside because of how cold we were. Also, the photos were amazing. She took photos during our surprise brunch as well and did a great job at capturing the candid moments and staying hidden so that we didn’t feel like our brunch was a photoshoot. She’s also just incredibly kind and was a great addition to the day. Plus, our photo turn around time was extremely fast. 10/10. Thank you Coco!

Hey there, I’m Shukhrat, a proud husband, a father and an artist. My love for photography started about fifteen years ago with photojournalism. Today, I continue to utilize my skills in capturing beautiful wedding and portrait moments that evoke the same emotions as the real moment. My photography style is diverse and has been refined over the years to showcase my creative vision. I am all about creating stunning, timeless artwork that truly captures the essence of a moment in true to life colors.

Awarded Best of Zola
Shukhrat and his wife Rachel just shot our June 8th wedding and we couldn't be happier. They were amazing to work with and the photos are phenomenal! About the pictures: Shukhrat is versatile and very skilled. When we took our engagement photos he provided us with various styles of photos and editing, and then used our feedback to guide the photos he took at our wedding. He is also flexible. We got married in a city park and there were wayyyy more people in the park than we were expecting at 6:00pm at night. Without missing any of the candid details or true-to-life colors that we wanted, Shukhrat was able to frame the photos and/or alter the lighting so that the park goers were barely visible in the background. Both Shukhrat and Rachel are also very skilled at giving direction when needed, but letting you do your own thing the rest of the time. Neither my husband nor I have a lot of experience in front of a camera—they gave us enough direction to feel confident, without making us feel stifled or overly posed. We wanted photos that felt organic and genuine, and they were really able to capture that. Working with Shukhrat and Rachel: The two of them were a dream to work with. Incredibly professional--very communicative, punctual, quick turnaround time on photos. And they are also just lovely people. You spend so much time on your wedding day with your photographers, it's really important to feel comfortable with them, and we certainly did. They brought both a fun, but calming energy, easing our pre-wedding jitters before the ceremony, and leaning into the excitement as the night went on. Although we hardly know them, they felt like friends. We are so glad we booked Shukhrat for our wedding!

Hello couples! Ive spent a lot of my career working in TV and Professional Sports all over the world but Ive always had a connection with the wedding photography world and decided to go full time with that a few years ago! Id be honored to shoot your special day and seek out every moment I can for you, your family and your friends!

I can’t say enough about how incredible our experience was with Eric as our wedding photographer. Located at the Jersey Shore, where most photographers focus on sunny beach weddings, I was looking for something different. Our wedding took place in the fall, full of rich earth tones and a fun, edgy vibe that centered not just on romance, but on the presence of our children. It was important to us that the day felt authentic, emotional, and full of movement. And, just to make it more fun, ours was a Halloween wedding. We had a formal ceremony followed by a costume reception, and Eric embraced every bit of it. He didn’t just roll with our unique requests—he elevated them. He found the perfect location: a hidden gem that was edgy, raw, and exactly what I didn’t even know I was hoping for. The backdrop had this cinematic, timeless feel that makes you wonder “where in the world could they be,” which paired beautifully with our nontraditional theme. Photographing four young kids is no easy task, especially on such a big day. But Eric’s speed, patience, and instincts were unbelievable. He captured fleeting moments—tiny glances, quick smiles, the chaos and joy of our family—without ever losing sight of the romance and connection between me and my husband. Every image tells a story. Every photo feels felt. If you’re looking for a photographer who goes beyond the typical and brings a true artistic eye to your day—especially one that includes children, unconventional details, or an untraditional setting—Eric is your guy. We will treasure these photos forever.

Hi friends! I'm a New England wedding and destination photographer based out of Connecticut. My faith is the foundation of everything apart of me. My family, friends, and my business. I wouldn’t be where I am today without God, and I pray that my clients can see the goodness of the Lord through every stage of working with me. I love hiking and finding a brewery afterward to grab a cider, strolling through a garden shop or bookstore, or catching a sunset down at the beach and having a picnic. I'm a Jesus- follower, wife to my best friend Justin, a mom to my son Jaxson, and dog mama to my girl Minnie.

We worked with Tianna for a branding shoot and she executed perfectly! She is kind, timely and a pleasure to work with. She nailed the photos and we were entirely happy with the whole experience. Would recommend her to any of our family, friends or clients!

After inheriting his father’s gift of photography since he was 4, it was only right that Stephan picked up the lens and carry on his legacy. For over 6 professional years, he has stood behind his medium and captured some of life’s most intimate moments.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Blissfulstills Photography! From the moment we booked them for both photo and video for our wedding, I knew we were in good hands. Noble and Stevenson, our photographers, were absolute pros. My husband and I are terrible at posing, but they made us look like naturals in every single shot! They guided us through the entire process, making it fun and effortless, and the results were beyond stunning. But the real jaw-dropper? Carl, our videographer, crafted a wedding video that looks like an epic movie! Every moment is captured with such cinematic flair—it’s a masterpiece. Even a year later, I’m still in awe every time I watch it. The way they captured our day is something we’ll treasure forever. I recently found out that they don’t only just do weddings! I’m already planning to book them for every special event in our lives. Love you guys!

Congratulations future newly weds! Christa here! I cannot wait to capture one of the best day of your life. Through photography, I am able to share my attention to detail with others so that they can reminisce on the moments that seem to pass far too quickly.

My husband and I far from regret booking Christa Gray for our wedding. Her precise attention to detail, professionalism, and expertise made a normally hectic day more enjoyable. She also made sure to incorporate my ideas into some of the photos showing she truly wishes to make her services a memorable experience for not only the day, but for a lifetime. I would highly recommend booking Christa Gray as now my husband and I have fantastic images to remember this day and we cannot thank her enough!

When I first started wedding photography, I made a goal of being more than just the photographer on your big day. I made it my goal to be your friend, someone you can crack inside jokes with, and someone who isn't afraid to get down + have fun at the reception (while still doing her job). I made it my goal to capture more than just photos, but an experience. Whether it’s high in the mountains, on a beach near the ocean, in a forest meadow - you deserve to get married however you want to & I want to capture it for you.

L & L Photography was the perfect choice for our wedding day. Lexi, one of the photographers, was incredibly effective and charismatic in her communication style, making the experience fun and easy. She was patient in answering all our questions and ensuring every moment was captured beautifully. The quality of their work is truly top tier, and their services are very affordable, making them a tremendous value. Lexi rocked every single moment, seamlessly blending into the celebration and creating absolute magic with her moody, romantic photography style. I've worked with many photographers, and Lexi is now my go-to - I cannot recommend L & L Photography highly enough.
