Wedding Photography Pricing

Collections for the Full Experience

Most wedding photography documents what happened. This is engineered to show how it felt.

Pricing from $4500

Most couples typically invest around $6500–$7500.

“We found Terrence very early on in our wedding process. [He] had some of the most beautiful photos we had ever seen—dramatic, soft, warm, and candid. To find a photographer that fit both of our styles was so exciting.

He was over our 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.

Let me tell you, both of us have agreed the extra cost was more then justified. We are in awe of the photos he captured.”

Finding the Right Fit Matters

Not every couple wants the same thing from their wedding photography. And that’s a good thing.

This experience is designed for couples who care about how their story is told, but also want it to be art.

Couples who:

  • Want direction, but never stiffness
  • Appreciate preparation as much as creativity
  • Care about light, composition, and feeling
  • Believe inclusivity isn’t optional
  • Value printed artwork that lives beyond a screen

You don’t need to perform or be overly expressive. You just need to be yourselves.

I’ll take care of the structure. Because the worst outcome here isn’t a bad photo, it’s a beautiful gallery that could have belonged to anyone.

“Terrence was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. He’s incredibly talented—our photos are stunning—and he was so much more than just a photographer. From helping us plan our timeline to advising on lighting and logistics, he was a calming, thoughtful presence throughout the entire process.

He made us feel instantly at ease. That comfort carried right into the wedding day. He was communicative and made our entire group look amazing, even in a tricky, low-light venue.

He truly felt like someone in our corner who cared just as much as we did about the experience and the memories.”

Getting Started

“If we could give 100 stars we would, no question. First, Terrence is an exceptional photographer. His style is unparalleled.

Terrence handled the nuance of our atypical day with grace and ease, which is no small feat when getting married on a sailboat on a particularly windy day. Working with Terrence was effortless. From our first meeting, he put us at ease, which continued through every interaction, including on our wedding day itself.

We’ve already had so many friends and colleagues talk about how gorgeous and unique our pictures are. We’re floored by our experience with Terrence as well as the photos he took of us. If he’s available for your date, book him without hesitation.”

Details Worth Knowing

You should feel comfortable before booking your wedding photographer. Here are some of the more common questions my wedding photography pricing, business values, etc.:

Yes. While I’m based in Connecticut, I regularly photograph weddings throughout the Northeast and am available for travel. For events outside my local area, travel is quoted thoughtfully based on location and logistics.

Full wedding galleries are delivered within 10 weeks. Engagement sessions are delivered within three weeks.

Galleries are carefully edited and refined, with an average of approximately 40 images per hour of coverage. Every celebration is unique, so final image counts vary based on the flow of each day.

As a full-service wedding photographer, every image I deliver in your gallery is carefully selected and professionally edited. I do not deliver unedited or raw files. Your final gallery is a curated collection refined to tell your story purposefully.

My wedding collections are carefully structured and include an engagement session, digital images, and printed artwork as part of the experience. While certain aspects can be modified, this foundation remains consistent for all clients.

To reserve your date, a signed contract and 50% nonrefundable retainer are required. The remaining balance is due two weeks before the wedding day.
