He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction.

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. Alec truly went above and beyond, and we had such a great time working with him. I'm obsessed with the pictures and would give him an 11/10 rating!

Terrence Irving Photography

  • Fine art style

  • Serves Salem, CT

Black Connecticut wedding photographer, purveyor of the artistically-engineered photography experience. That's a crafty way of saying, I'm a computer nerd who's pretty good at photography and believes in great service! Digital image gallery, print rights, and beautiful, physical prints included with every package. My work focuses on telling my couples’ wedding day love stories through the pictures I capture. Artwork is the goal, whether it’s a highly-stylized posed photo or a moment where a loved one is emoting.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Terrence very early on in our wedding process. His gallery had some of the most beautiful photos we had ever seen; some were dramatic, which is what my husband loves, others were soft, warm, and candid, which were my favorites. To find a photographer that could fit both of our styles was so exciting. Terrence’s package was over our budget, in part because we were marrying in NY, so would have to pay a travel fee. I was convinced I could find someone within budget. I searched and agonized for an additional two months. Finally, my now-husband convinced me that the photos would be the one thing from the day we would get to keep forever and we sprang for Terrence and let me tell you, both of us have agreed the extra cost was more then justified. In high heat and humidity and looming storms, Terrence did everything he could to keep us on-schedule and to get incredible photos at a venue he had never even been to. We just received our sneak peak gallery and all of us are in awe of the photos he captured. We look forward to working with Terrence in the future for other big life moments, and you should absolutely book him too - engagement shoot or wedding, Terrence will capture your moment perfectly!

Tianna is the best photographer and I am so happy she was available to shoot both our engagement session and wedding. She is so welcoming and knows how to help pose you so you don't ever feel uncomfortable. We had received so many compliments on our engagement pictures and when we got our sneak peaks from the wedding they look like they came straight out of a magazine. She took the sweetest family picture for us incorporating our dog on our special day and we couldn't thank her enough!

Hii! I'm Nicole and I work full-time as a nurse and pursued my passion for photography in 2017 when I would attend my boyfriend (now husband's) motocross races all over New England.

She is truly a hard worker who goes out of her way to make you feel special on your big day. Nicole is a complete sweetheart, and I would recommend her photography services to anyone planning a wedding.

Her attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile made her great value for the fair pricing. We would highly recommend Sarah B Photography to any couple looking for a talented, personable photographer to document their big day.

I'm a 28-year-old photographer based out of South Eastern, Connecticut! I got into photography in 2019 and have been loving every second of it! When I'm not capturing memories, you can find me on some adventure with my boyfriend, or at home with our 2 Kittybrats (Loki & Cruise.. Tom Cruise)!

Hayley is not only the most talented photographer but the kindest and brightest light. I have known Hayley for about 15 years and the honor to have her shoot our wedding was truly ours. From our engagement shoot, to photo timelines, and all of our questions, she was literally there for me with anything that came up throughout our day. I absolutely panicked when my bustle broke on my dress during my reception. She literally took time to sew my bustle to my dress like it was the simplest task of her day. I truly cannot express our gratitude and appreciate to have her and her second shooter, Rachel (Wild Arrow), capture our day.

She captured so many beautiful shots and many of them with my fiancé smiling (which is hard to do!). And was open to any location and time we wanted.

Hi, I’m Allison, and I’ve had the privilege of photographing weddings for over 10 years. My background with USA Gymnastics in sports photography (including the 2020, and 2024 Olympic Trials) has taught me to capture every moment with precision and artistry, making sure no detail goes unnoticed. Because of my commitment to the gymnastics season, I limit the number of weddings I take on each year. This means I can give each couple the time and attention they truly deserve, creating a personalized gallery that tells the beautiful story of their day. I’d love to work with you to capture your unforgettable moments!

Awarded Best of Zola
Allison is a professional yet loving person and is the perfect photographer for weddings and family portraits! My husband and I knew the minute we got engaged that we wanted to work with her. We did our engagement shoot at Harkness Park and immediately felt at ease working with Allison and overall we all had a lot of fun! The day of our wedding Allison and her dad John were incredible. We gave them the difficult task of getting 90% of our pictures done before the ceremony so we could spend some of our cocktail hour with our guests. Not only did they make that task look easy, but we all had a great time with our shots! Allison also strongly suggested taking 20 minutes during sunset to take some couple shots, and those became my favorite pictures of the day. The turnaround for the full album was quick and the pictures were beautiful, but most importantly the personality that both Allison and John have made the experience magical for everyone involved. I can't recommend working with them enough!

My husband and I enjoy living in the quiet woods of Eastern CT with our fur babies Kenai and Topaz. We have been together since 2015 and got married in 2022 at a brewery. I've had the incredible experience of living around the country including AK, OR and CO (yes I love the snow!). My perfect day is sitting outside in the autumn foliage drinking espresso while listening to a podcast or reading on my kindle. The shows Outlander and Stranger Things are my vibe though I'm always quoting New Girl and Bob’s Burgers. I live for cozy coffee yaps, farmers markets, and serendipitous moments.

ASHLEY IS THE BEST!! 100% my new bff. She is so funny, kind, and easy to work with. We got to know her while doing our engagement photos and it made her feel like family the day of. I’m so glad we used her, the photo sneaks we got back were dreamy, romantic, and so moody. Her editing style is flawless and her ability to capture the candid moments is exactly what we wanted. We cannot recommend her enough, definitely the best in her field!!!!

I am a self-proclaimed nerd and total goofball who is always up for an adventure, especially if it means going to the beach. I love to travel. I have been blessed to find “home” on three different continents, and I speak fluent English, Spanish and Portuguese. My husband Mike, sons Javi & Ro, baby Soleil and pup Tag are my greatest motivation. They simultaneously drive me crazy and keep me grounded. The love, strength and energy I get from them shapes my perspective on the world, and is something that I want to share with you. In addition to all that, I happen to be one of the luckiest people in the world – I love my job!

Bridget & her assistant did a PHENOMONAL job photographing my daughter and son-in-law’s wedding last weekend. She somehow managed to capture it all – the couple, the relatives, the venue, the season, the rituals – yet each image stands as a work of art on its own. Especially love the black and white photos sprinkled in with the full color. I guess it comes down to Bridget’s mastery of lighting, and her ability to read the energy of the many different people she photographs. One of her candids has the gorgeous lighting of a Vermeer painting (“Girl with a Pearl Earring”). It you’re looking for the best, look no further.

Hi, I'm Theresa, a wedding photographer inspired by nature's beauty and the stories we all hope to pass down. Along with my amazing team of photographers (plus a videographer!), our work emphasizes natural prompts and real emotions to create incredible imagery that captures the vibrant energy of wedding celebrations. We’re set apart by the fact that we know how to maximize shotlists so our couples can skip the photo marathons and enjoy their own cocktail hour (which is rare, I might add).

Awarded Best of Zola
Teresa is awesome! She provides amazing customer service from the time you meet her through the time she delivers your digital album (3-4 weeks after your wedding day) and then beyond that was you order prints and create albums. I “clicked” with Teresa instantly the day we met and she held my husband and my hands through the entire planning process leading up to the wedding. She even shot a mini-engagement shoot in the week before the wedding so that my husband could meet her and she could see us interact together. We were completely confident that our day would go smoothly photography-wise and boy, did it ever! Once in full "game day" mode on our wedding day, Teresa balanced being friendly and accommodating to our wedding party and guests with doing the necessary crowd control to get the shots we asked her to, plus so many others! Her full day coverage allowed us to have pictures from both of our getting ready locations, our first look and then the ceremony and reception at our venue: four locations on a tight timeline which meant over 10 hours of shooting. After our big day, we were psyched to see our sneak preview pop up in our inbox less than 24 hours after the wedding with 100+ photos! Even better, our full album came through at around 3 weeks post-wedding. From what I've heard from other wedding couples, this is exceptional turnaround time compared to the majority of the industry. The photos themselves are nothing short of amazing! Teresa was able to capture the happiness and love we felt on our day and looking through the photos transported us right back to each of the special moments of our day. From our intimate first look to the formal portraits, to photos of our DIY wedding details, to the dance floor candids and our sparkler send off, and everything in between.... WOW! We recommend Teresa to anyone and everyone we can!

They were the most intuitive people we worked with all day, picking up on all of the day's emotions and logistics flawlessly while helping us arrange ourselves for the photos we knew we would cherish for a lifetime. They even helped arrange my dress and veil, and never flinched in our muggy, buggy atmosphere. They were fun, funny, helpful, and in short, a dream to work with. Their talent is superb - we can't recommend them highly enough!

It's so nice to meet you! I was born and raised in New Jersey (a.k.a. I didn't pump my own gas until I moved to Connecticut 8 years ago)! Fueled by caffeine, I love discovering adorable coffee shops, supporting farm-to-table restaurants, and traveling anywhere and everywhere. Although I love exploring quaint towns across New England, I spend most days with my husband, 7-year-old daughter, our two Labradoodles, and cat! They take up most of my camera roll because they are just so darn cute.

Forever blessed to have had Sarah as our wedding photographer. (Not to mention an amazing engagement shoot too!) She is fantastic and thinks of everything so you do not have to. Her photography skills are awesome, she has such a way with lighting and positioning. She will also ensure you and your partner are comfortable during photo shoots. Sarah drove through a snow/ice storm several states away the night before my wedding to make sure she wasn’t late the morning of - did I mention she is literally the best? Thank you Sarah, we love you and your work!

Hello, My Name is Jurgen van der Pluijm WEDDING, FASHION, LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER and Artist I grew up in a multicultural family and have been exposed to two things since a young age - European Culture and African Culture As a seasoned photographer and artist, my work reflects a thoughtful exploration of the world around me. Armed with a strong foundation in art and a keen eye for detail, I approach my craft with a sense of curiosity and dedication. Through the lens of a camera, I strive to capture the essence of emotions, the beauty of nature, and the stories that lie within the ordinary.

Jayxel PhotogrArtphy was a pleasure to work with on our wedding day. Their communication style was very clear and simple, which helped put us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly professional, and they approached the day with a humble and patient demeanor. Jayxel PhotogrArtphy captured all the laughter, tears, and joyful moments between my wife and I, as well as our guests. We are looking forward to having them shoot all our future occasions as well.
