First off, I have to say Mike and Gabby were both extremely professional while also having so much fun with us and all of our guests! They were so helpful the entire day with making sure we were able to still have fun with our guests but also get the photos we wanted !!! Not only did our pictures come out absolutely incredible but all of our guests were nonstop complementing how incredible they were! We just got our photos back a couple days ago and every single one of them was flawless! Going through the entire album brought me back and made me truly relive the entire day! I am so grateful for them capturing every important, special, and funny moment so that we both can remember them forever. Thank you so much Mike and Gabby !!!!!
We are so happy we went with Mike and the team at CT Photo Group for our wedding. Mike and his second shooter Evan were the perfect mix of professionalism and personality. We genuinely had a great time working and laughing with them throughout our day. There is SUCH a range of pricing for photography in Connecticut and Mike’s pricing was super competitive without compromising quality one bit. Our engagement and wedding photos are stunning and timeless without being over edited or trendy. I know we will love and cherish them forever.
We absolutely loved working with Mike and Evan. Not only were they totally dialed in and very professional orchestrating all the key shots, but they were so personable that our entire wedding party has been talking about how great the photographers were months after the wedding. You spend a good amount of time with the photographers on your wedding day, so it makes a huge difference to have people who put you at ease and can make you laugh. Photos turned out great - we can’t recommend these guys enough.
Any questions?
I loved working with CT Photo Group! My husband and I met with Mike in person 10 months before our wedding and he walked us through their photography and videography packages. Their prices were very reasonable and we liked that a beautiful photo book was included in the package. We hired them for both photography and videography. Our photographer Gabby was awesome! I spoke with her on the phone a month before our wedding and we discussed timeline and the photos I wanted. On the day of, Gabby showed up and got straight to work. I loved how efficient she was and her photography is absolutely stunning! She captured everything and had amazing ideas for creative photos. Carlos, our videographer, was amazing too. He helped Gabby with everything and captured our wedding. I would absolutely hire CT Photo Group again!
Gabby was easy to work with and took great pictures! I was worried about our tight schedule, but she ensured everything went smoothly, kept everyone in check, and the schedule of the day went without any problems!
I can't say enough good things about CT Photo Group! Mike shot my wedding photos in May 2024. From the start, he was friendly, organized, and communicative. On the day of the wedding, he showed up 10 minutes early (on an already early morning) and got right to work. He was calm and cheerful even in stressful situations. He turned around the photos extremely quickly, even sharing a few previews within 24 hours when my mom asked for them. It was a great experience to work with him.
Mike and his team were absolutely wonderful! From engagement photos to wedding day it was smooth,fun, and organized. My husband and I when looking for a photographer specifically asked for a lot of guidance as we don’t take many pictures - Mike was perfect and told us exactly what to do. The die hard shot is also amazing!
We could have not been happier with everything that CT Photo Group did for us! They were so helpful on our big day and helped make it so special and captured the magic! The return time was amazing! Watching the video back, I felt transported and wanted to cry of happiness again (this is the groom talking)! I would vouch for everyone to use them.
From the initial phone call, to the end of the wedding reception, they were amazing. I can’t say enough good things about Mike! He was so professional, knew his stuff, and everyone, from family to guests, couldn’t say enough good things about him. My husband and I felt extremely confident in his handling of everything, he was so personable, and helped us with everything. I would hire him in the future for any photographer needs I have! 100/10 stars!!
Gabby and Mike did an excellent job with the photography on our wedding day! They were attentive, professional, knowledgeable, and ensured that everything went smoothly. From our engagement shoot to our wedding day the quality of the photography was amazing! We absolutely loved how all the pictures came out and they truly helped us create memories that we will cherish forever! I highly recommend working with CT photo group for your wedding!
Absolutely fantastic! Mike was so efficient and spectacular, he knew exactly what to do and we got all the photos we wanted (and much more!) on a tight timeline. He was great with names, corralling all the guests, and working with the kids in our party. Most importantly, the photos came out beautiful.
Mike was our wedding photographer for my October 2023 wedding, and I cannot express the gratitude I have for him and his team! The pictures are absolutely out of this world Mike and his team were a blast to work with, very organized and professional. Not to mention, FUN!!! I highly recommend CT PHOTO GROUP!! They are the BEST!!!
Gabby and Mike were our wedding photographers in September 2023, and we are so thankful! They absolutely nailed it on every level. Both were cool calm and collected the whole night, and everyone enjoyed their company. Not to mention they did not miss a shot! The final photos are better than we could have imagined. We could not be happier with our choice with CT Photo group. Highly recommend!
Gabby was amazing to work with. She did our fun pumpkin head engagement shoot and our wedding. She’s straight to the point. Takes amazing pictures. My husband hates pictures and she made sure she wasn’t burning him out at any point.
Mike is awesome, passionate & so caring. Going with CT Photo is one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. I was super excited when they showed up to the venue for the day of my wedding. Mike helped my husband & his groomsmen tie their ties and get them ready for the day. I can’t thank CT Photo Group enough!! Also, turn around time for photos are super quick. I’ve seen people wait close to a month.CT Photo is a few days to a few weeks. Thank you guys!!!!
Mike and his team were the best choice for a photographer and videographer! Mike was willing to do anything we asked of him and the photos and video are something that I will cherish forever!
We cannot thank Gabby and Jess enough for the incredible work they did! The photos were even better than we ever imagined! Both so professional and wonderful to work with! Gabby, you made the day so special! We let you know ahead of time that we really love detail photos and you guys were able to incorporate them perfectly. We will forever cherish these photos! Thank you!!!
We first learned of CT Photo Group while looking for a wedding venue where there were some albums on display. While that venue didn't work out, I'm grateful that we were able to find CT Photo Group there. We set up a meeting to meet Mike to discuss packages, pricing, etc. Upon leaving that meeting, we both knew that we wanted to work with Mike and team. Included in our package was an engagement session - this was great to work with Mike so we could all get to know each other before the big day. Mike really has an eye for capturing photos - including if it means he needs to lay on the ground to get the photo! Prior to our wedding, Mike and I chatted to discuss some of our must have photos. It was great the day of not needing to worry as I trusted that Mike (and his second photographer Nicole) would get the job done. He made us laugh throughout the day and was very attentive to make sure we were able to get all the photos we wanted. Not only did he capture great photos of us, but made sure that we had some great photos of our guests to remember the day by.
We had a phenomenal experience working with CT Photo Group. We met with many photographers before Mike, but each photographer was lacking in one area or another. Mike and his team checked all of the boxes for us. We really liked the style of his phots and found him to be very personable. We wanted to be sure we would be comfortable with our photographer, and Mike and his team were pleasant to work with.
Our experience with CT Photo Group went beyond our expectations. Mike was great during our initial engagement shoot. We instantly felt comfortable with him and enjoyed the photo shoot at Silver Sands and the Duck Pond. The pictures were beautiful – and it was a great way to get to know Mike!
We were fortunate to work with Mike and Gabby for our wedding day. They went above and beyond throughout the day. Their attention to detail was evident in the photos they took. Over 1,200 of them that utilized the grounds of our venue (The Waterview) perfectly! Narrowing down our favorite photos has been a challenge because we like so many of them. We cannot recommend CT Photo Group more highly! Thank you for an excellent experience, and we look forward to working with you in the future!
If you are looking for someone that can read your mind, take charge of the party and keep everything flowing seamlessly -- Gabby is your girl! She came in to my wedding day knowing my concerns and handled them like a champ. She took the most stunning pictures in the most time efficient manner, especially since we were all freezing outside! She had the best ideas for night photos, venue photos and group photos! I will be using her for every holiday and event that needs pictures. I could not have asked for a better photographer - you really captured all the special moments and we cannot say thank you enough!!!!
Where to even start! Mike and Gabby are fantastic! From setting up an initial meeting to the day of, they were great. Mike was accommodating with helping us find a good spot for our engagement photos and he did not steer us wrong! He kept in touch throughout the planning process and made sure we got all the shots that we were looking for day of. We didn't meet Gabby until day of, but everything was so seamless that it felt like we had known them both from the beginning. They were both great at remembering everyone's names and making everyone feel relaxed and comfortable (especially me and my husband since we never get our photos taken!). We got our teaser photos in about a week and to say I am obsessed with them is an understatement! They are phenomenal and I can't wait to see the rest of them! Thanks for capturing our day so beautifully Mike and Gabby!!!
Absolutely perfect !! Can’t say enough good things about Mike and his team. Mike was recommended by our venue and was so great to work with. Very professional, made sure we had fun, and really got all the shots we were looking for and more! Sneak peeks came back quickly and looking forward to seeing all of shots and reliving the day. We highly recommend him and his team for your special day. Really went above and beyond for us!
CTPhotoGroup is amazing!!! I reached out and was able to have a meeting, and my engagement shoot set up within a few days! Gabby is the BEST!!! She was super friendly and easy-going. She is fun and so great to work with. The communication from CTphotogroup has been great and I would highly recommend them! :)We are so grateful to have had Gabby shoot our wedding and will definitely be reaching out for future photography needs!
Where do I even begin?! Mike and Gabby are INCREDIBLE!! They make such an amazing team, and we absolutely adored working with them! From our 'get ready shots' to the end of our reception at The Candlewood Inn, Mike and Gabby were extremely professional, accommodating, and SO MUCH FUN to work with!! They don't make you feel awkward at all during photos.
When we first met with Mike, we knew we wanted to book with him right away. He is genuine, reasonably priced, and understood our needs for the day of the wedding. He was very responsive the entire journey.
When the big day finally arrived, Mike went with the Groom and Groomsmen, and Gabby came with me and my bridesmaids. We immediately clicked, which made the experience that much better.
At the end of the night, Gabby told me to expect some 'wedding teasers' within 1 week... and 5 days later, we received an email with the teasers while on our honeymoon! We were absolutely blown away with the quality and quantity of photos we actually got! *Shout out to Gabby for all the veil shots*
100% RECOMMEND!!!
I wish I could make this a 20/5 star review, that is how happy we were! We first met Gabby and Marcia during our engagement photo session. Gabby's energy is palpable! She will do anything to get shot and we got some incredible ones! We were so excited to have them both back on the wedding day and they were incredible. Our families and bridal party also could not stop talking about how amazing they both were! Gabby even helped me steam my skirt before we walked out. The photos they both got were absolutely perfect, their excitement will keep you smiling all night. They are so hard working and creative, I promise all the photos will be amazing! I wish I could put more eloquently in to words how absolutely amazing they were but the absolute best!
CT Photo Group was fantastic to work with for the entire process! Both Mike and Gabby were very responsive and flexible. Gabby was our on-site photographer and she was incredible! Everything we wanted in a wedding photographer. She was fun to work with and also quick with photos while capturing everything we wanted - which left more time for fun with our guests! Highly recommend this studio to anyone.
One consecutive compliment my wife and I keep getting about our wedding was our photographer! Mike and his team went above and beyond for us. All of our guests and other vendors loved him. They made things light and easy and fun. Everyone loved how prepared they were and knew everyone's names asking for everyone by name and even learning and remembering family members names. It was a very personal touch we highly recommend CT photo group!
Mike and Gabby were amazing to work with. They're incredibly talented, fun to be around and help strike a perfect balance between taking control and moving everything along if you want them to or just letting you set the pace and dictate everything on your special day. You're going to spend a LOT of time with your photographers, especially if you do a first look so you really want them to be easy-going, fun people and they absolutely are.
Most importantly though, the photos are fantastic. They're really great at what they do and we ended up with about 900 incredible photos. They also delivered a small handful of some of the best photos within a day or two of the wedding which was great. Don't even hesitate to book these guys. There's a reason that every review on here is great. Hire them right now and give yourself one less thing to worry about. They're the best.
I've only got incredible things to say about Mike and Gabby!! my husband and i had an engagement shoot with Mike so we could get comfortable having our photos taken & oh my gosh, the photos turned out fantastic (and suped quick. I think I had them within a few weeks). we both felt incredibly comfortable with him and his co worker Gabby too. they were super professional, very funny & had some of the best ideas for pictures I never would have thought of (like adorable shoe pics & a great shot of my parents having a first look). I can't recommend either enough. our teaser photos came in (again, super quickly) and I teared up because of how beautiful they were. the way they both captured our big day is more than I could have wished for:)
Mike and Gabby were so fun and professional to work with! Even with a snow storm, they made the best of our day and got us some amazing shots. They made sure we kept to our schedule, and we’re well organized and on top of it. I would definitely hire them again down the road for other photography!!
We worked with Mike and Gabby for our 1/29 wedding and are amazed by the quality of their work. The CT Photo team captured our special day perfectly and we will treasure the photos for years to come. Despite a snow storm, venue changes and the ongoing pandemic, Mike and Gabby were flexible and patient with us. They captured moments that my husband and I missed and were very quick to deliver our final photos. Booking CT Photo was the best decision we made during the wedding process and I can't recommend them enough!
We worked with Mike and Gabby for our 11/6/21 wedding day. Gabby spent the first part of the day with the bridal party and Mike spent the first part of the day with the groomsmen. Both were an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the day. Both of them spent the entire day with us and we got so many incredible shots. They helped us capture everything we dreamed of and more. We also did an engagement shoot with Mike before the wedding and the photos were beautiful. We wanted to do photos in the snow and Mike worked with us to keep an eye on the weather to find the perfect day to do the engagement shoot we envisioned with our dog. We highly recommend CT Photo Group for any occasion! We look forward to working with them both again in the future! The photos from our wedding are absolutely stunning!
Highly recommend! Mike and Gabby were amazing. Their creative ideas for photos really brought out our shy personalities. They worked well together and were very professional the whole night. Our guests loved the fun photo experience instead of wondering "How much longer?" We have already gotten a few proofs back (a day after the wedding! So fast!) and they are gorgeous.
We used Gabby from CT Photo Group for both our mini wedding last year and our larger celebration this year. I cannot say enough about her work and energy. She is so passionate about what she does and so excited to be able to capture the day with you. She has done a fantastic job and we had so much fun when she was photographing the wedding. We cannot wait to see how the pictures turn out and to use CT Photo Group again in the future!
We are so happy with our choice of photographer for our wedding day! Mike and Gabby were fantastic! We really could tell how much experience Mike has had in the industry and they both had great energy to keep up with my large bridal party and partying family. Professional, talented, and such nice people! I highly recommend this team for your special event.
We used CT Photo Group for engagement photos in April 2021 and our wedding day on 10/9/2021. You can tell the photographers, especially Mike, are so passionate for capturing special moments. He made us feel so at ease and got really beautiful pictures for us to cherish forever.
The day of our wedding Mike was so willing to take pictures anywhere and with anyone we wanted to get photos with. He was so engaged during the day and we are SO glad we booked them. We hope to use them in the future for other special moments in our lives!
I cannot say enough good things about them. They were professional, flexible, and had great knowledge about weddings and photography. I had issues with my bustle and my husband had issues with his boutonniere which Mike was able to help both. There was some family drama unfortunately, but Mike remained professional and got all our photos done without adding any stress to us. They go above and beyond! I highly recommend them for any event you have.
WOW! Mike and Gabby provided unbelievable service and did an amazing job at taking our wedding photos. From the engagement shoot to the last photo at the wedding, they made everything 100x easier and more enjoyable. Mike and Gabby know what they're doing and will get you through your photos with ease and grace. I have never met more professional people who absolutely love what they're doing. We cannot express how amazing it was to work with CT Photo Group. I can't wait to use them for all of our professional photos here on out. I am so happy we booked with them!! Thank you so much CT Photo Group for making our day that much more special. YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!!
CT Photo group did an AMAZING job at my wedding June 2021. Mike and Gabby were such a pleasure to work with and put up with all of my husband & his groomsmen's craziness. They were genuinely excited about the shots they were taking, and their enthusiasm was contagious. And, I have to say, the results were GORGEOUS. They know exactly how to capture all the moments of your day beautifully. Photos came back quickly -- within 3 weeks -- and we had teasers just a week after the wedding! I loved that the package included a free album for my husband & I, and it was extremely high-quality and professional. Mike was also very helpful in answering all of my questions on what sizes to order for different prints.
We also used a videographer from them and that came out great as well!!
I cannot recommend CT Photo Group enough! You will not be disappointed and will have beautiful photos to remember your special day!
I’ve known Mike Evans, owner of CT Photo Group since back to bridal expos of 2014! He was originally hired to work my 2015 wedding that I chose not to go through with. He was very understanding and we kept a business relationship in case I was to get engaged again. When I did, he was over the moon to hear from me. I introduced him to my now husband Allan, and we knew this time we had a winner. When COVID happened, Mike and his company did everything in their power to stick with us while we waited for the world to get better. In the meantime, when my husband and I chose to have an elopement for just us, Mike had suggested Gabriel Marrero to shoot our special day. From the moment we were introduced to her energy, it made the tension of all chaos go away. Gabby was amazing with sunset photos at the state park we chose to elope at. Wonderful ideas and vision of how evenings photos should look! When things got better and we were back on track to have our original reception, Gabby and Mike were still with us the whole way. When we finally had our Happily Ever After party, Gabby even got into the Disney fun by dressing up as Lilo and took some beautiful shots of us in our official wedding attire. CT Photo Group is at a lot of the state’s bridal expos, find them brides to be and book them!
I cannot begin to tell you how pleased we are that we chose Ct Photo Group to do our wedding. Mike is very professional and was always available with any questions or concerns. He captured every detail of our wedding. Our album is more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. I would highly recommend him.
Where do I even start with CT Photo Group? They’re absolutely amazing. When I first got engaged 2 years ago I did an extensive search for the perfect photographer, and I found Mike. Mike went above and beyond for our engagement pictures and wedding day. My husband and I can confidently say, stop researching a photographer and book with Mike. Our wedding day ended up being pretty cold but that didn’t stop Mike from getting down on the frozen ground to capture the best shots. We got to meet Gabby on our wedding day as second photographer and we’re so impressed with how well she and Mike worked together. There wasn’t a sing hiccup on our wedding day all thanks to them. Ontop of that the turn around time for our pictures was impressive. Thank you Mike & Gabby for making our wedding dreams come true, even with COVID barriers.
I can't recommend Mike and CT Photo Group enough. We loved our engagement photos and the shoot was a great time. We had to make a lot of changes to our wedding plan due to Covid and Mike worked with us to make the day equally special. Our wedding photos are breathtaking and we will be sure to use CT Photo Group the next time we need photography as well.
My husband and I had the best time working with Mike from CT photo group. He made us feel so comfortable and at ease during our engagement and wedding photos. We are definitely not naturals in front of the camera, but he made it easy and fun! We were really impressed how the photos came out. He has a great eye for picking the right backdrop and framing the shots. We were very happy with our decision!
One of the best decisions we made! We had originally hired Mike as our photographer for our February 2021 wedding, but with all the uncertainty with the ongoing pandemic we decided to move up our wedding date and host a small intimate family wedding instead. Using CT Photo Group was the one thing we kept from our original plans and we are so happy we did. Mike and Gabby are so warm, friendly, helpful, and most importantly, incredibly talented. The photos they captured truly showed the love and joy we felt throughout our wedding day. We love our photos and highly recommend CT Photo Group. Thank you Mike and Gabby for capturing our day!
Let me first say that my now husband and I are not photo people. At all. We've been together for 4 years and have 4 photos of us together. Not anymore. Mike and Gabby did a fantastic job handling our stiff poses and reluctant smiles. We have loads of presentable (and even beautiful) photos of us now.
It was a pleasure to work with them both- unobtrusive while also grabbing all of the important moments. Mike even got us to laugh.
We booked CT Photo Group a year and a half before our actual wedding. We met with Mike to decide if he was the right person to take our engagement and wedding photos. From the minute we met him, we instantly liked him. He made us feel very comfortable and showed us a variety of his work. His portfolio spoke for itself and we felt confident in our decision to go with CT Photo Group. Once we booked him, we waited about 6 months until our engagement photos. He accommodated us by taking us to two separate locations we wanted. The pictures came out beautiful. He is amazing at lighting (and back lighting) his subjects. We were beyond happy with our engagement photos, not to mention the quick turn around in getting them back to us. Fast forward 12 months to our wedding. We had the pleasure of having Mike and Gabby for photography, and Garrett for videography. The three of them fit in so well into the evening. At times we even forgot they were there because they are so talented at blending in and allowing you to experience the day for all it’s worth. Once we got our stunning wedding photos back, we were shocked to see that they got so many candid’s and angles. We felt comfortable while they were posing us for the formal pictures. They are literally the three nicest people and their personalities make you feel like you’ve known them forever. On the same note, they also went beyond and above what you would expect your photographers to do. It was extremely cold and windy on our wedding day. In addition, I was pretty sick. The three of them did their best to keep us warm (wrapping us in blankets between shots) and escorting us inside to get warm before we came back out for more photos. Gabby was especially kind to me, handing me tissues throughout my whole first look, because I was not feeling my best! Despite how lousy I felt, the pictures do not show that at all! They made me look like a superstar, even though I was not feeling it. I could not have asked for a better photography/videography team. They are patient and accommodating. They understand the importance of the day and are 100% reliable. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Thank you Mike, Gabby, and Garrett for everything you guys did for us. We appreciate your work and cannot express our gratitude enough for the amazing way you captured our day. Thanks!
Mike and Garrett were the best photographers we could have asked for. They helped our day run smoothly and made sure things were going as planned. Throughout the planning process, Mike was always available to answer any questions we had. We just got our pictures back and we are absolutely thrilled with how they came out! We will be recommending CT Photo Group to all of our friends and family. Thank you to Mike and Garrett for capturing our day!
Words cannot express how pleased and happy we hired Mike for our wedding photos. Mike did everything to capture the most beautiful moments of our special day! He will forever be a part of our family! Any photo shoot in the future I am going to him! You need to hire him I cannot express enough what an amazing experience we had! What Mike can do with lighting is beyond romantic and incredible. Amazing service and I highly recommend.
Response from the Vendor on 11/28/2019
Thank you Liana, you and Kyle were amazing to work with. Thank you for letting me be part of your amazing day at Le Chateau.
We recently got married in the Danbury area and Mike and his team did a fabulous job. My husband and I are extremely camera shy and we had huge families and bridal parties to account for, as well. Mike and his team made the process enjoyable and organized. We can’t wait to see our photos and couldn’t imagine our day without CT Photo Group!
What can I say about CT Photo Group. They were great! They walked us through everything and seemed to always be there to capture everything! We just got our pictures and they are BEAUTIFUL! I never could have imagined anything as beautiful as we got! We are so happy with the pictures and we don't know how we will be able to narrow it down for the album or choose just one for the thank you card! Mike and Garrett, we can not thank you enough for capturing all the magic of our special day!
We literally just got our wedding photos back from CT Photo Group and I am speechless. They are STUNNING! Mike and Garrett were awesome! On time, professional and not to mention amazing and fun to work with. They captured every perfect moment. All of the formal pictures were done so quickly that we actually had time to sit and eat a little bit. They also wanted to do night shots outside and Mike waited until I was done dancing to tell me it was time for those pictures. I cannot say say enough about CT Photo Group! Do yourself a favor and book them for your wedding, you will NOT be disappointed! Thanks Mike and Garrett!
We had our wedding this past weekend, and I can honestly say I am so thankful for Mike and Garrett for being there! From the minute I sat down with Mike I felt comfortable and I knew he would be an amazing person to work with.
Mike and Garrett were a blast! They know exactly how to get all the best angles, the perfect positioning, and the best colors to work with all pictures. And they seemed to have memorized my list of "must have" pictures with family and friends- which was so impressive to me because I didn't have to know ANYTHING other than where to stand.
Not only this, but they even were willing to stay an extra few minutes over their time so they could grab a few extra important shots. These two were amazing to work with and I cannot recommend them enough!
Mike and Gabby were absolutely amazing! Fast and professional with a great eye (and sense of humor A+). Made my Husband and I feel like we were in safe hands from the Preparation stage to the Day Of. Never felt like photos were an intrusion. Wonderful people who you will love!
Mike is a true professional. He did our engagement photo shoot and the pictures were breathtaking, and the turn around time was so fast. Mike and Gabby also did our wedding day and we could not have asked for a better photography team. They captured absolutely everything I could have dreamed that they captured. Looking back through the photos, it’s as if I can relive ever minute of the evening. The photo quality does not get any better than Mike’s photos. Looking through friends’ albums of their weddings, I kind of feel bad that they didn’t have Mike! The photos are that good. And the best part was that Mike is so easy going and funny, he’s able to get along with everyone in order to put people at ease and get great shots. He was especially impressive with our flower girl, and managed to get her to laugh and pose for pictures, not an easy feat! Thank you so much Mike and Gabby we will cherish our photos for a lifetime!
My husband and I got married this past weekend, and we are so happy we booked Matt from CT Photo Group as our photographer! He did an awesome job and we can't wait to see all our pictures! Thank you, Matt!
From the moment we hired Garrett as our photographer, we knew we made the right decision. He was always on point, always reachable, and treated us as if we were his favorite couple. Garrett noticed my nerves and calmed me down (as much as I possibly could calm down) before I walked down the aisle.
A wedding is a big day - our biggest so far. We only wanted the best, and that's what we got. Garrett had my husband and I go outside during the sunset, and again when it was dark to take photos. Those were some of our favorites!
We got our photos back quickly and they are absolutely incredible! Thank you Garrett and Gabby for sharing in our day!
Mike is an absolute gem! I LOVE photos! I treasure my photo albums and love to create memories with my family. To start Mike did an incredibly amazing engagement photo shoot for my husband and I. He took us to a park in Connecticut and immediately got a feel for us a couple. We had SOOO much fun! He was making my husband laugh and the pictures came out beautiful. I was afraid that the pictures would look to staged, but they came out natural and breath taking. I framed them for the wedding and placed them around the venue!
Moving on to the wedding day, I cannot express my LOVE for the way that he captured every angle and every expression. It was a very emotional ceremony, and of course being the first to get married, the father and bride pictures were very emotional as well. Mike and his team caught every moment! The serious, emotional, funny, and sometimes crazy moments.
Mike is so easy to work with, he even recommended our videographer who was equally as special to us. I was super impressed by both of their turn around times! I had the pictures faster than I could believe. I had friends who waited months and months for their pictures and I felt like I had mine instantly!
My husband and I will continue to use Mike for every occasion! His work is incredible, his team is incredible and he is a wonderful person! Thank you Mike and CT Photo for making every part of my wedding experience phenomenal.
My husband and I recently got married at the Waterview in Monroe, CT. We had the pleasure of working with Mike and Garrett. We can not say enough about them both. From our engagement shoot, to the wedding- they did not disappoint! They are extremely talented and helped capture our beautiful day! Not to mention, their awesome personalities made them so fun and easy to work with! I would recommend CT photo group and Artisan Videographer to anyone- you won’t regret it!
My Husband and I got married on June 22, 2019, and it was the best day of our lives. We are so happy that we chose CT Photo Group to capture our special day. Matt & Mike spent the whole day with us, they were awesome to work with, they kept us on our timeline, and came up with some really awesome photo ideas. We are very lucky to have such amazing photos to remind us of our special day and we would absolutely recommend CT Photo Group to our friends! #OnePrueLove
Mike and Garrett were absolutely outstanding! Both were professional in every way and very personable. They captured every single moment of my daughter's wedding day. I have never seen such beautiful photographs! I highly recommend this photo group and staff!
Mike and his team were nothing short of delightful to work with! From our engagement shoot to our wedding day, Mike bought right into our Star Wars theme and helped us think up creative and different photos we could get to incorporate our theme, without being tacky. They made all our guests feel welcomed on the wedding day and more importantly, were our companions when we wanted to take photos with people but continue to circulate throughout the room.
SO happy we chose CT Photo Group and Mike Evans to photograph our wedding! From the first meeting we had, we knew Mike would be perfect for the style of wedding we wanted... relaxed, flexible, fun, and willing to work with our ideas. The morning of the wedding, Mike was at the venue before us, getting organized and ready so that when we arrived, he was ready to go! Pre-ceremony, ceremony, and reception shots were amazing and Mike and his assistant were on point the whole time. Our families were amazing at how Mike remembered everyone's names right away, and how inconspicuous he was throughout the whole event. Never did we feel that the photos interrupted moments, yet looking back at the pictures, all of the moments we were hoping to see were captured perfectly! Highly, highly recommend CT Photo Group!
We were thrilled with our experience working with CT Photogroup for our wedding, from prep through the final album. Matt and Garrett were our photographers, and they were fantastic. Matt guided us smoothly through photo planning, and he and Garrett were wonderful the day of. They took fabulous formal and candid photos, really capturing our friends and family. They were also a joy to work with on the day of-- fun, easy, and seemingly everywhere at once without ever being in the way. They also solved all sorts of odd problems, from Garrett smoothing out our rolled ketubah to Matt finding just the right spot to get an overhead view requested by the mother of the groom. Highly recommended.
The moment we met Garrett, we knew he was the perfect lead photographer for our special day. He was a combination of laid-back and professional that made it easy to work with. Garrett helped us tailor our team to our needs - which ended up including 2nd photographer (Catherine) and videographer (Dave).
Despite the long day, Garrett arrived bright and early in a good mood and kept it up taking nearly 2000 photos between candid and posed! Besides being complete professionals and keeping on track of the day's schedule, everyone was extremely friendly and nice throughout the process from the initial planning meetings all the way through coordinating receipt of images and video after the wedding. The best part is we received everything back from the video to the photos in less than a month! We couldn't have asked for a better team to have captured our day and I would highly recommend CT Photo Group to every couple getting married in the area.
CT Photo Group was flexible in working with us. Our pictures were beautiful and no moment of the day was missed.
CT photo group is beyond amazing, they really care for you and your wedding and all have such good personalities. They treat you so well and make you feel amazing on your special day, they will take care of any personal preferences for photos and really do their best to get your photos exactly how you want them. Price is extremely reasonable and if you are looking for the best of the best they truly are the best. Would recommend them time and time again.
My husband and I really enjoyed working with Mike and would recommend him to anyone in the area getting married! He was very professional and just a great guy. The turnaround on our photos was amazing as well - we were still on our honeymoon when our gallery was available to view! Mike was able to capture many beautiful and creative shots while also taking all of the group shots that were super important to me. It will be hard to narrow down which photos to choose for our wedding album, as there are so many great ones! Thank you Mike!
My husband and I got married at the Candlewood Inn 10/6/2018.
Mike and Matt were the ultimate tag team of photographers. They were able to divide and conquer and get the pre-ceremony shots of the ladies and the guys. They were able to get our First Look photos without a hitch! They just made us feel comfortable during some of the most nerve-wrecking hours leading up to the ceremony. Mike and Matt were such professionals - we would never regret the decision in booking them!
And when your guests mention during the reception how great they think are your photographers, you know you made the right decision!
My now husband and I had a destination wedding and we booked CT Photo Group for a more unconventional wedding "send-off reception" with family in friends in CT before we left. We are so happy we had Garrett Uhde to capture our party! He went ABOVE & BEYOND to capture the essence of what our send-off reception was about. Not only was it a really hot day, but we also had thunderstorms. When the rain let down to just a light sprinkle in the evening, Garrett had the best idea to grab an umbrella and captured the most beautiful photo of my husband and I outside under the rain drops. He didn't miss a beat. He really got to know us, and my family and friends to put everyone in the right poses and make everyone just have fun and be comfortable. We also received our pictures very quickly! I highly recommend CT Photo Group and Garrett!
What a wonderful experience! Mike Evans was patient, kind, professional, creative, and dedicated to capturing all of the special moments from our wedding; we couldn't be more pleased with how our photos turned out! We were supposed to take outdoor photos and have an outdoor ceremony, but needed to rearrange at the last minute due to rain. Mike talked with us through some indoor options and was very flexible and helpful in organizing new plans to take our photos. Everything turned out perfectly! Would highly recommend!
My wedding day was the best day of my life for many reasons and I have Mike and his team to thank for being such a big part. Mike and his team made my day amazing by making sure my veil was placed properly, my dress was falling just right, making sure they got every “money shot” I requested, and making my husband feel more than comfortable with his groomsmen in front of the camera. I am more than happy and pleased with my wedding photos. I have received many comments saying that they should be in a bridal magazine. I look at my pictures and remember every detail of that day because it was captured so perfectly. I would get married again and again for these pictures to be done over and over again. Thank you Mike and the team for making me feel like the most beautiful bride that day and making sure we were all taken care of! We love you guys- Taylor and Tyler Mingo
