Enchanted Celebrations was truly an amazing company to work for. We got the package with photographer, videographer, DJ, and photo booth and it was the BEST thing we did for our wedding.

  • Serves West Simsbury, CT

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.

Aren Paradis Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves West Simsbury, 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!

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.

My name is Emily. I'm 27. Born and raised New Englander. Attended Central Connecticut State University. Got a bachelors, had a kid, blah blah blah. Let’s talk photography. There is something to be said about capturing the raw moments in life. I thrive on candid, unposed, real emotion. Every person I have met on the other side of the camera has changed me for the better in one way or another. I'd love to work with you, so let's get the conversation started.

Emily was the best photographer to have for our wedding. She’s so professional, and very calming/relaxed while making sure she was getting the shots. She was such a pleasure to have and the greatest hype woman. I will cherish these photos forever and I look back on them with only positive memories because of her work. We also had engagement photos and a bridal shower session. She was quick with responses and I would definitely use her again.

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!!!!!!!

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!

I’m SO satisfied with our experience booking with George Street! I was drawn to them because I thought they were more reasonably priced compared to what some individual photographers are charging these days (we’re in the Seattle market), but I didn’t feel like the price advantage came at a sacrifice of quality. I loved the photos our photographer John C. took (who was AMAZING!) for both our engagement/portrait session and of course the photos on the day of the wedding. He did a fantastic job capturing all the beautiful memories we made that day, and we are so grateful. The booking process was really simple, too—I arranged a meeting with one of their sales reps (Amber) who did an excellent job explaining exactly how their company works, the packages available, how to choose your photographer and so on. Once we booked with them, we were given access to an online portal to put in all the necessary info that would be passed along to the photographer. One thing I would say is that because you are contracting with a company and not the individual photographer, you aren’t able to communicate directly with the photographer very often. You really are hiring them for photography only, so collaborating with them on the event timeline and other details is not really an option. Any questions you have generally need to be sent via the wedding coordinators at George Street, as you won’t even receive your photographer’s email or phone number until you actually meet them (it’s possible this is not the case for everyone, but just our experience). To be clear, this was NOT an issue for us at all, but just something to be aware of if a more hands-on photographer that can help with coordination and planning is really what you’re looking for.

Working with Sound Originals was a dream! They were incredibly communicative leading up to the wedding, eager to send reminders and answer questions as needed. They listened to our concerns and made sure to prioritize the things we valued- like taking photos outside, getting LOTS of group pictures, and enjoying candid snapshots. The day was unexpectedly rainy, but our two photographers were ready, enthusiastic, and full of creative ideas. They were so fun to work with and incredibly flexible when things got slightly off schedule. We got our photos within a month, and we loved how they turned out. Both the candid and staged photographs were amazing. Our experience was incredible, and we would highly recommend them!

Johnny and Alegre from So Behold This Inc. were the best choice I made on my wedding day.. second only to choosing my husband. We were initially not going to hire a professional photographer, but I can’t tell you how glad I am that we did. From the moment we first spoke, Johnny’s fun, laid back style put me at ease. They both made the trip to our home to shoot our engagement photos and made it an easy and super enjoyable experience (despite our anxiety about being in front of a camera!). We clicked with them instantly! Johnny kept the lines of communication open in the months leading up to our big day and I loved seeing all the other events he was shooting. On the day of our wedding, Johnny and Alegre were the best hype duo; playing my favorite band to calm my nerves as I was getting ready, assuring me that I was allowed to run a bit late, making sure my husband and I always had what we needed, helping to bustle (and fix!) my dress, and being our calm amongst the chaos. They allowed us to have those quiet moments together which gave us a chance to pause and truly be present with each other. Their attention to detail ensured our wedding day was captured in absolute perfection. Speaking of absolute perfection… let’s get to the photos. For months I stared at Pinterest inspo photos and sent a bunch of my favorites to Johnny. When I opened the sneak peaks that we received the night of the wedding, they were nothing like the Pinterest photos I had sent.. they COMPLETELY blew those photos out of the water. I truly have never seen such incredible photos and still cannot believe that they’re ours. They are the perfect moody, romantic, dreamy photos that I never thought I’d be lucky enough to star in. They are beyond STUNNING. I still scroll through them daily and take every chance I get to immediately shove them in the face of every single unsuspecting person I interact with. We are over the moon with the final photos and could not recommend So Behold This Inc. more highly!
