Small Wedding Photographer in Connecticut: Capturing Intimate Moments

Planning a wedding doesn’t have to mean a huge guest list or a packed ballroom. More and more couples in Connecticut are choosing small weddings and micro-weddingsβ€”celebrations that focus on what truly matters: love, connection, and meaningful moments.

As a Connecticut small wedding photographer, I specialize in documenting these intimate celebrations with a natural, candid style. Whether your day takes place at a historic inn, a vineyard in the Connecticut countryside, or a cozy backyard filled with your closest family and friends, my goal is to create timeless images that reflect your love story.

Why Choose a Small Wedding in Connecticut?

  • Meaningful connections: Fewer guests allow you to spend quality time with each person.
  • Beautiful venues: From coastal parks like Hammonasset Beach to vineyards in Wallingford or Stonington, Connecticut offers countless spots perfect for intimate gatherings.
  • Personalized details: Small weddings give you the flexibility to incorporate thoughtful touches, unique traditions, and a pace that feels stress-free.

My Approach to Small Wedding Photography

Your wedding deserves storytelling that feels authentic, emotional, and stress-free. I focus on:

  • Candid moments β€” laughter, hugs, and the small in-between glances.
  • Details that matter β€” florals, rings, handwritten vows, and table settings.
  • True-to-life editing β€” timeless tones that won’t go out of style.

I don’t just capture portraitsβ€”I tell the story of your day, from getting ready to your first dance under the twinkle lights.
