We are so happy that we chose Cregg to be the photographer for our wedding! Cregg was easy to work with, and so patient with us. Throughout the day, people kept telling me how impressed they were with Cregg and how hard he worked to get the perfect shot. We knew we had picked the right person! Even after all of this, I was still in complete awe when Cregg sent us the pictures. They were more beautiful that I could have ever imagined. Cregg is one talented artist with an amazing eye. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You Cregg!!
Cregg and Scott both did amazing job taking our photos for our wedding day. Craig was very patient with a very large wedding party we had and made the day so so fun. Space he allowed us to take whatever kind of pictures we wanted along with having a vision of his own for the day that turned out amazing. Cregg we can’t thank you enough for making our special day better then we could have ever imagined.
Cregg!
Oh.my.god!
This album is phenomenal! Holy wowzers, we weren’t expecting anything like this. Even though we saw the album layout for approval, seeing the finished product blew us away. Beyond awesome, thank you so much!!
Totally appreciate how great of a job you guys did at the wedding, and continued that fabulous work on the album. It was truly the happiest day of my life and I’ll be forever grateful that you were able to capture all those moments for us.
Wishing you all a very happy and safe holiday!!
Thanks again for everything!!
Chrissy and Aaron Murphy
Cregg went above and beyond to take as many pictures as humanly possible. He made us feel like movie stars! He worked very hard to try to capture every moment and accomplished that! Thank you Cregg!
Absolutely phenomenal job, captured every moment for our ceremony & reception. Went above and beyond, had an initial meeting, then call to ensure he knew what we wanted. I couldn’t be happier with the photos and everyone I have shared them with has confirmed they are the best wedding photos they have ever seen!!!
Honestly, you should stop looking any further for a photographer! Our wedding photos look like they’re out of a magazine. Cregg positioned us so nicely and embraced the environment so well that the background looks like a canvas or screen. My husband and I are not photogenic people but cregg was able to engage us and guide us through the posing process. From our engagement photos to wedding day of prep/ family and wedding party photos/ceremony/reception... it’s all captured and it’s all so beautiful and it’s all because of how amazing cregg is and the eye he has for photography. In my eyes... The photos are so important they are around forever, not the flowers or decor, cregg is the guy you want to capture your wedding day!
Absolutely phenomenal !
Cregg was referred to us by our DJ, and from the moment we saw some of his incredible work on his website, we knew we needed him to work his magic at our wedding.
And he did just that.
The photos he took of me and my husband were stunning! From his location choices at our venue for the photos, his light work and his creativity, the photos are something that could have come out of a magazine.
Throughout the whole process, he was very kind and professional, and was always quick to respond to any question or concern we had.
Our wedding day went by so fast, but with his ability to be everywhere all at once, he was able to capture so many beautiful moments of all our closest friends and family that we will be able to cherish forever.
Thanks Cregg and Scott!
Cregg was absolutely amazing at our wedding in October 2017. He was very professional and attentive. After meeting him for the first time, we could tell he was so passionate about his work. His excitement made us even more exciting for our wedding day. Anytime I reached out with questions, he was impressively quick to respond. He worked with us to make sure the day was exactly what we wanted, and was so helpful throughout the entire day. We felt like he really wanted to be happy, and his pictures came out amazing. Some were the standard shots, still beautiful, and some were so artistic and gorgeous. We were more than pleased with the results, they were better than we could have imagined. Would recommended 100%. You will not be disappointed!
We were extremely lucky to have Cregg join us on our special day. He was extremely professional and went above and beyond for my husband and I! We are absolutely over the moon with the results and I even cried when I saw how beautiful the photos came out.
Thank you, Cregg, for capturing the most magical moments in our lives!
Cregg was fantastic for our engagement photos! They came out amazing and we can't stop looking at them. The sunset photos were something out of a magazine. We can't wait for the wedding and are lucky to have such a talented photographer capture our day!
Amazing, amazing, amazing! Cannot say enough wonderful things about Cregg! He is an absolute professional and an absolute pleasure to work with! Throughout the planning process leading up to our wedding, he was very much on top of things, and made sure that I was always comfortable and excited. On the day of our wedding, he was everywhere he needed to be, and more! He was so easy going, and he and his team made me, my husband, our wedding party, and our families feel more than at ease. His work is BEAUTIFUL and he very much knows what he’s doing. Please please PLEASE book Cregg for your wedding and/or event!
Having Cregg photograph our wedding was pretty much already decided once I saw my husband's friend's engagement and wedding photos. When we finally met him, he showed up just as any true artist would and was already brainstorming so many exciting ideas, showing us multiple examples of his previous work.
Cregg is extremely creative and is a true artist. He doesn't just take the shot, he creates art. He also gets those candid shots of family members and friends that you wouldn't be able to capture with just any photographer. He sees the potential of every shot in his mind through the small details, lighting, the camera angle, and exposures. He work is truly fine art. Every single photo taken was amazing! Thank you Cregg and assistant Scott for capturing our engagement and wedding!
Frankly I'm upset I forgot to write a review considering my wedding was almost 2 years ago and how pleased I was with Cregg. As an amateur photographer myself, I interviewed close to 40 photographers before finding Cregg. Unfortunately this business has become saturated with amateurs and hacks that say they are professionals with absolutely no formal training or talent at all. The photographs he produced exceeded my expectations and he didn't miss a single shot. Cregg is a true professional with real talent and an asset to the industry. Please remember, you can never redo you wedding day so if you want to cut corners on your photographer because they offer a better package I can almost promise you won't be happy. I'm 35 and have been an avid photographer since I was in middle school developing film in a dark room but I don't dare call myself a professional. Cregg is the definition of a pro, don't sell yourself short with anyone else.
We booked Kristen Conte as our photographer along with a second photographer. On the morning of our wedding, the second shooter was sick and was not able to make it. Kristen called Cregg and he came to the rescue!! My videographer had seen him at the grooms house before coming to the house where I was getting ready. When he came in the door he was excited to be working with Cregg, saying that he was one of the top photographers in the State of RI! When I saw the final pictures from Kristen and Cregg I was in absolute awe! Their pictures captured every single aspect of our wedding day!! Cregg did a few creative shots of us on the beach and they are absolutely stunning! Evan (the groom) had mentioned that he really likes candid shots over posed shots and Cregg really delivered. The candid and different angled shots he was able to capture of our first look and throughout the day are absolutely amazing! You can tell he really has a creative eye! Kristen and Cregg went above and beyond what we could have dreamed for for our wedding pictures!! They are something that we will love and cherish for a lifetime!
Cregg was the photographer for our wedding this past October and we couldn't be happier with our pictures. The location of our ceremony was originally in Jamestown, because of inclement weather it was not possible and it turned out to be indoors. Cregg did a wonderful job being creative and our photos came out great. He got everyone together during group pictures, showed up on time and had a great attitude the whole time. After the wedding he provided all the photos within a very reasonable timeframe. Highly recommend! Thank you Cregg !!
I didn't want a photographer, I wanted an artist and Cregg does not disappoint. He showed concern over meeting my demands and guests commented on how hard he was working. There were plenty of pictures which did not disappoint and I can't wait to see my album.
Because he is more than just a photographer, be patient. If you want fast turnaround, he is likely not the photographer for you. For me, he was exactly what I was looking for.
Cregg is truly the most amazing photographer ever!! I am so happy that I chose him for our special day!! I recently received my edited wedding photos and I cannot stop looking at them!! Cregg is a true artist, incredibly creative and an overall genuine and kind man. I cannot thank him enough for capturing every single special moment with my husband, family and friends. He took well over 2,000 pictures and I am having such a difficult time narrowing down my favorites for the beautiful album he's going to create. I would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend him to anyone!! I am looking forward to using him again for future endeavors!!
When I first became engaged, I remember scrolling through Facebook and seeing a wedding photo of a friend that literally took my breath away it was so beautiful. I contacted her immediately to find out who was the photographer and it was Cregg. I quickly met with him and booked his services because I didn't want to miss out. In our package an engagement session was included. Cregg traveled up to Boston and went to numerous locations around the city with us. We gave him the extra challenge of photographing us with a horse, and he pulled it off! He made us feel comfortable and relaxed and our engagement photos are beautiful. At our wedding, he was equally amazing. He has skills that other photographers don't possess. He is so knowledgeable about lighting, angles and every detail that comes together to create the perfect shot. Our wedding was 2 days ago, so we don't have the photos yet, but he showed me some images from the camera as he took them. They were amazing!! The name says it all- Cregg's work is not just photography, it is fine art. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Cregg
Cregg is a true artist! We are still in complete awe over our engagement pictures and cannot wait for him to shoot our wedding. He is a true professional and a blast to work with!
I found Cregg on The Knot and was thrilled with his portfolio and website. We met face to face and I loved his personable nature and genuine passion for photography. He has been super accessible by e-mail throughout my planning process, and flexible with timing and scheduling. Originally, we hadn't planned on engagement photos, but after talking to a few friends, we decided that my camera-shy fiancee' might benefit from the experience. Cregg never pressured us to add anything to our original package, which really helped our indecision.
We just had our engagement photos done. They are absolutely stunning. My fiancee' felt much more comfortable about taking photos and posing after the experience. As an added bonus, the photos were ready for us very quickly! We took the photos on Saturday (3 days ago), and he ALREADY sent me my shots (today is Tuesday). My fiancee' and I are obsessed with our photos. We can't wait to see what's in store for our Wedding Photos, but we already know they're going to be gorgeous. Cregg is a true artist, and a pleasure to work with. Do yourself a favor and book him.
We met with a few photographers during our wedding planing process. Meeting with Cregg made the decision easy - he was so easy to talk to, brought beautiful examples of past work and really understood the look/style we were going for.
Hiring him was one of the best wedding decisions we made. On the day of his wedding, he and his assistant were incredible. In.cred.i.ble. They were efficient, found the best places for pictures and were patient as we organized group pictures (herding cats, in most cases).
We got our wedding photos last night and I cannot stop looking at them. They have FAR surpassed my expectations - which were high after seeing samples of his work. Absolutely beautiful.
I absolutely recommend Cregg to any bride still searching for a photographer. You won't be disappointed!
Cregg Annarino was honestly one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding. We booked him almost two years out because we knew we had to have him. The first time we sat down with Cregg, we left knowing he was the perfect fit for our wedding. His pictures and album were like nothing we had ever seen.
The week prior to the wedding, rain was in the forecast for our big day. One phone call to Cregg, and I immediately knew I had no worries in the world and that we were in good hands. Weight lifted!
The day of, Cregg and his assistant Scott were extremely patient and professional. With no rain in sight, we couldn't wait for them to show up! I was extremely nervous for everything to go as planned and they took the time to calm me down and tell me that it was all going to go away as soon as I walked down the aisle. There were a few shots we wanted Cregg to capture and he had no problem doing so, especially our not-so first look. He put it together and those pictures are amazing! It was awesome to see how he used the sunset, State House, etc... and turned them into a piece of art. Cregg showed my husband and I sneak peeks throughout the day and we were floored. And those were only the sneak peeks! We had a great time taking pictures, with never a moment of "Let's get this over with"! Cregg and Scott made it fun for both my husband and I, and the bridal party as well. They even mingled during our wedding and fit right in! It was awesome that they even had a great time!
As far as the pictures themselves, when we received them a few weeks ago, I couldn't help but cry. I relived the entire day over again thanks to Cregg. He never missed a beat throughout the day. I continue to go through them all and find new favorites that I didn't discover the first time. They are absolutely stunning. The way Cregg captured our wedding leaves me speechless. I have family members going through the album saying they've never seen pictures like his before. Nothing but compliment after compliment. I have no idea how my husband and I are going to decide which pictures to choose for our album. We have too many favorites.
Cregg Annarino Photography is tried and true for sure. I continue to recommend him for years to come. If you want an extremely talented, funny, down to earth guy to capture your wedding day, you have to choose Cregg. You think his pictures look beautiful on his website, wait until you see them in person. I have nothing but great things to say about him!
We love Cregg!!
Cregg, Chris and I are so happy that we met you while you were photographing my brother's wedding. We knew by the of their wedding day that we had to have you photograph ours! You were so easy to work with. You were super laid back but always professional. Chris and I can't wait to see the finished product and that sneak peak you gave us is Drop Dead Gorgeous! You took so many amazing shots…you made me feel beautiful. We can't thank you enough.
Shannon & Chris
Cregg is very easy to work with, returns calls promptly, very professional and his quality of work is impeccable. I received my pictures and they are just UNBELIEVABLE he captured every single aspect of the wedding. His eye for uniqueness, and capturing "the moment" is on point. You will not be disappointed with his work.
I am completely blown away by Cregg's work and would recommend him to anyone looking for stunning wedding pictures! Check out his website or facebook page...his work speaks for itself. In addition to being a talented artist, Cregg also has a really laid back personality and gets along with everyone, which made shooting for the day really easy. My husband was not thrilled about having to have his picture taken a million times on our wedding day, but Cregg made it painless. Professional, personable, and talented. I would highly recommend Cregg for your wedding!
We hired Cregg to take both our engagement and wedding photos. We absolutely LOVED them all!! Cregg made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and the quality of his photos is impeccable. We are so happy to have so many wonderful photos to remember our special day!
Cregg does amazing work. The photos and the album are gorgeous! Cregg is a sincere, genuine and laid back guy. after 5 minutes you feel like you have known him forever! His work is amazing and he has such a passion for it. Had so much fun having Cregg has our photographer!

I work with photographers for a living, and when I saw Cregg's portfoloio, we knew he was "the one". His pictures were beyond beautiful. Cregg is an absolute master at using scenery and light to make the most basic photo look like an artistic masterwork. He also has a journalistic eye and captures the most nuanced and beautiful moments. Everyone who has seen our photos say they're the best wedding pictures they've ever seen, and we wholeheartedly agree.
Not only is Cregg a rare talent, he's also a great guy. We loved having him at our wedding, and could not be happier to have invited him. We don't own the words to express how highly we recommend Cregg Annarino. He is the best of the best. And we have the wedding photographs to prove it.
Cregg is professional, and above all an artist. His enthusiasm while taking photos is evident during the event and is demonstrated in the final product. Our pictures are breathtaking. He has a talent for using natural light and producing images that appear unreal. We chose sunset for our session and we couldn't be happier. We would recommend him 200%.
I worked with Cregg for my engagement shoot and for my beautiful wedding day. Cregg Annarino isn't just another "wedding" photographer. He is an artist with an incredible talent. I actually have people message me asking who did my photos. After interviewing several photographers and seeing all their work, we went with Cregg because we knew he would give us our wow shot! Not only did he capture my whole day with many many pictures. I have so many gorgeous "wow" shots! I realize weddings are expensive,but your photographs are the most important part of your wedding day. I am a very picky person and never like my photographs. After our engagement shoot I was completely speechless. Cregg Annarino is a true artist and is incredible at what he does. He is a great guy too! My husband and I felt so comfortable with Cregg and our pictures weren't at all fake looking and posed! This is sooo important as well. All my friends got married in the same year and we all had different photographers, I can honestly say my pictures are the best! Two friends always tell me they wish they knew about my photographer! If you are looking for someone who knows what he is doing, is personable, and will give you absolutely GORGEOUS PHOTOS that you will love forever call Cregg! He's just fabulous!
Thank you again for the most gorgeous photos!

We hired Cregg for our wedding in June and we are so happy we did! Cregg was professional, energetic and just and overall pleasure to be around. And let me just say, he takes AWESOME photos! Cregg had an eye for capturing unique and candid moments throughout our day. He also worked relentlessly to get us that magical shot, he was on the ground, he was on chairs, he was all over the place trying to capture that moment perfectly! I would hire him again and again, thank you Cregg!
We knew when we saw Cregg's work on his website, he was exactly what we were looking for in our wedding photographer. We met with him and decided on the spot he was indeed for us. Six months later Cregg took our engagement photos and they looked to be out of a magazine. The day of the wedding he showed up with his assistant right on time and was great from the start. Cregg was never demanding or pushy, he let us decide what and how many pictures we should take and didnt force us to take any we didn't want to. We haven't seen our proofs yet but I have no doubt that they'll be just as amazing!
Cregg's work is amazing! He was easy to work with, and got all great kinds of photos! I was lucky to have snagged him cause he books up fast!
Cregg was absolutely amazing! I cannot be more pleased with his talent and personality. The minute my husband and I met him for the first time we knew he was the one...his personality is so great and he is an ease to work with! He makes you feel like a long lost friend from the start. Not to mention he is a visionary as well...I got back my teaser pictures for my wedding on 11/11/11 and they look magazine worthy! He truly has an eye for art...I think every image he captures could be hanging in an art galery somewhere. Although I do not have my final product yet, he showed me pictures as we went along that day and I must say they are perfect! He even stayed later to get some of the images I really wanted even though my time with him ran out. He wanted us happy and that is all he cared about...I really love that about him. Most vendors seem in it for the money and don't really care about making you happy. That is the exact opposite of Cregg. He went above and beyond!!
From the moment we met Cregg, we knew he was the photographer for us. His portfolio was amazing and exactly what we were looking for. Our wedding photos are gorgeous and Cregg and his assistant were amazing to work with. They even stayed out in the rain with us to finish up our photos for the evening. We highly recommend Cregg, you will not be disappointed.
From the moment I met with Cregg, I knew he had that creative touch I was looking for. Of all the vendors I met with we immediatly clicked, and he understood my vision for my wedding photography. The day of the wedding I felt so comfortable as he took pictures, he integrated himself into the festivities with ease, and got the most amazing, personal shots of me, my husband, our families and friends. He made the whole process fun and artistic. Cregg always says he strives for the 'wow factor', and he definitely delivered it!
Any pictures I need in the future, I'm going back to Cregg. And I highly recommend you do to!!
SPECTACULAR and STUNNING would characterize the photos taken by cregg on my daughter's wedding day..... as the mother of the bride, my day was filled with much apprehension, anxiety, and excitement....to be sure!!! at the end of the day, it was all a blur and until i viewed cregg's pictures i had only vague memories... it wasn't until i saw the nearly 1600 photos posted online did the blurred memories of the day surface along with the tears resulting from their beauty. cregg managed to "document" the day and "tell" the story in a most UNIQUE and CREATIVE way! the pictures were GORGEOUS showcasing the details of the day and capturing my daughter's beauty and range of emotions throughout her wedding day from "getting ready" to the "reception". cregg is a TALENTED photographer who is PASSIONATE about his work. he has a style all his own and was a pleasure to do business with. my biggest challenge will be choosing individual pictures as there are so many favorites to choose from!!! i highly recommend his services---he will not disappoint!!!
I got married in September 2010 and have nothing but rave reviews for Cregg. He is incredibly talented and extremely professional. The images that he captured are just unbelievable! The pictures reflect all of the real emotions of my wedding day.
We had over 1000 pictures to choose from for our album. It took us months to narrow them down because all of the pictures were so great! When I look at the pictures from my album, I feel like I am looking at pictures in a magazine.
Obviously, I would highly recommend using Cregg as a photographer. He is the best one out there!!!
We are using Cregg as our photographer for our wedding, July 6, 2012. We had our e-shoot a few months ago, and he was amazing! He came early and was ready to start the moment we got there. He did everything he could to get a perfect shot! He even drove around to get the perfect location for the sunset. The pictures came out great, and he even turned it into a slideshow with some HD video mixed in and some music in the background! I cant wait to see how our photos come out for our wedding, I know he will do an amazing job!
Cregg is by far the best wedding photographer I've ever seen ... which is why we chose him as our photographer on our wedding day! From that morning to that night he was AMAZING! He made a very nervous bride calm and relaxed. One of the things my husband and I loved the most about Cregg is his adventurous, creative style... he took so many unique shots in so many unique spots. He made it fun and exciting and my husband and I are not ones for liking our pictures taken! Cregg's work is outstanding and breath taking... he is professional, personable and laid back.
Toward the end of our weddings day and the end of time with Cregg we had gotten busy talking to our guests... Cregg came to find me to let me know his time was about up and to make sure I didn't have any more pictures I wanted... my heart sank... I had lost track of time and I had so many more pictures I had wanted to take... Cregg being the amazing photographer and person he is looked at me and said "listen I'm not just going to take off on you... I'm not worried about getting out of here on time. If you want more pictures taken we'll take more pictures!" He stayed to took picture upon picture until I was satisfied. He didn't have to do that but he did and that really said something to my husband and i about what kind of photographer he is.
Cregg is a talented, professional, personable and down to earth photographer whose work is out of this world!
My husband who is not easily impressed was completely blown out of the water when he got out pictures... he tells his own review every time he tells any one about our weddings pictures... that's hard to do!
Our wedding pictures hand on out walls and each day I look at them they amaze me... they never get old!
I feel like I can't even begin to properly explain how amazing Cregg's work is... I just can't.find the words. Breath taking, beautiful, outstanding, unique, stunning, timeless and so much more!
We couldn't have asked for a better photographer on our weddings day! We would recommend Cregg over and over again any day of the week!
After having to fire my first photographer because of horrible engagement photos I had to start my search alll over and thank goodness I found Cregg. He has an amazing eye and even to this day people tell us how amazing our wedding photos are...they are not cookie cutter or boring and they captured all our special moments of our day without doing endless boring shots...we got to enjoy our day and didn't even realize all the photos cregg was taking. He is wonderful and makes you feel comfortable. Our wedding album makes everyone jealous because the photos are amazing. He has a special talent in capturing light and angles to make everyone look great. I have recommended and will continue to recommend him in the future.
Cregg was fantastic in helping having a fantastic wedding! As a hurricane Irene couple (meaning our wedding was cancelled due to the hurricane) Cregg was thrilled to be a part of our last minute shotgun style wedding. He literaly found out that the wedding was cancelled for sunday and that we were getting married in 3 hours on the 26th(Friday) instead of the 28th.
Cregg not only was thrilled to be a part and shift all his plans but helped calm me down in obviously quit an intense situation. The one thing I cared about without a doubt was the photo's and having Cregg be there so last minute and make what was salvageable salvaged was truly a huge difference between devastation and true happiness!!!!
Cregg, thank you for everything! It means so much and I am so glad you were our photographer!
Cregg does not settle for mediocre photos. He truly loves what he does and it made him so much fun to work with! We were so grateful that he was able to work within our budget and in both the engagement session and the actual wedding, he went above and beyond. I also give him extra credit for having so much patience and being able to handle a) record-breaking heat days on BOTH days we were with him and b) being able to deal with my crazy Asian family!
Cregg, you rock!
Cregg is amazing! I can' t say enough good things about him - he work is stunning, he has an incredible eye for getting extraordinary shots and he absolutely loves what he does! He made me feel so comfortable and helped guide me through at choreographed shot.he is a natural and made me feel like a super model. Even our guest were blown
Away by him and his assistant and they have not even seen the final pictures yet!
