    Best Wedding Photographer EVER

    We are a couple that doesn’t feel they are very photogenic and we were worried about the photos, OMG, I don’t know how she was able to capture such beautiful and poignant photos of us! Erica is amazing, as a photographer and as a person. She made us feel so comfortable and most of the time, we were unaware that photos were even being taken. In addition to being an incredible photographer (an artist, really), Erica brings her contagious enthusiasm and joy that made our evening bubble with excitement and served to remind us to be present and enjoy! We could not be happier with our decision to hire Stella Blue and highly recommend Erica and her team!

    Thank you erica!

    SO MANY AMAZING THINGS TO SAY ABOUT ERICA!! First off, her personality is contagious. She is so personable, friendly, kind, caring, I can go on and on. We had Erica shoot our engagement photos and wedding photos and she was so flexible with the timing of our working schedules and since I was traveling between NY and CT weekly. She went above and beyond to get all the perfect shots that we wanted as well as giving us suggestions on where and how to get the best light and angles. Her artistic and photography skills are indescribable. Definitely take a look at her Instagram handle and blogs and that is already enough evidence to showcase her skills. She took the time to go over the scheduling for our photos ahead of time for the day of the wedding and made sure all of our family members and friends were accounted for. Erica really helped relieve the anxiety and stress we had during the day of the wedding and made sure things went smoothly. She also made sure my makeup stayed on point with the humidity and that Andrew was feeling fine and comfortable with the hot weather. Overall, Erica was wonderful and we definitely want to keep her forever as our photographer for any of our future events!!! Highly recommend Erica for any upcoming events for everyone!!!!

    Stop looking for a photographer and pick Erica!

    Erica is absolutely AMAZING! She photographed our engagement session and will also be photographing our wedding. Erica is an extremely professional, fun, and enthusiastic person. She made having pictures done feel as though we were just walking threw life with her. She never makes anything feel awkward and has been 100% open to any and all ideas we have had as far as pictures we want taken. The day she met our family it didn’t feel like “oh the photographer is here.” It felt like “yay Erica is here!” It’s hugs and smiles all around. She’s fantastic with children and always gets them to laugh and look at the camera! My biggest pet peeve with choosing a photographer was the quality of their pictures, and how they print. I’ve seen several pictures that unfortunately look pixelated which isn’t flattering. This has not happened with Erica’s pictures. Every single picture is shot with care in mind and edited to perfection without making the people in them look fake. The day we went on our engagement shoot with Erica was an all afternoon event. We spent the better half of the afternoon with Erica which felt as if we were spending it with family. I HIGHLY recommend Erica for any and ALL events that you need or want photographed. You definitely won’t be left disappointed. She’s amazing. And I’m so incredibly thankful and lucky to have found her!

    We also had Erica photograph our wedding and we still can't stop looking at the pictures! Erica made everyone in our entire bridal party feel comfortable and everyone loved having her there! The blog post she does as a sneak peek is also amazing. Erica definitely knows how to help us relive the most amazing day of our lives.

    Wonderful photographer, wonderful person!

    Erica is such a warm and wonderful person and a real artist with a really admirable commitment to her craft, from photo to physical print. We suspected we’d want to work with her as soon as we read through her blog and once we spoke to her on the phone, we KNEW! She’s really invested in finding the small, special, unscripted moments in weddings and in capturing the depth of feeling not only between bride and groom but among their family and friends. From the beginning it felt like she took a personal interest in us and our story – and she made us feel so welcome and so well taken care of as we visited her studio to prepare for the wedding. It was easy to get bogged down in the stress of wedding planning, but she was always reminding us of the bigger picture and getting us super excited for our day again. And the photos are absolutely wonderful! They are such a perfect encapsulation of how joyful and magical that day felt, from the quiet moments the two of us shared together to the wild abandon of our guests on the dance floor. It has brought us so much joy to look at these photos together and to share them with our guests. And getting to go back to her studio for the big reveal of all the photos was such a wonderful celebration in itself, from the slide show of highlights she created to the prints we got that day. She was such a star and we cannot recommend her enough!

    Erica and her team are the definition of professional photographers! She makes you feel so special and calm and really gets to know who she is photographing so she can make it the most personalized experience. The quality of pictures are amazing and I would highly recommend her for anything needing a photographer!

    We had interviewed a few photographers but knew we wanted to go with Erica immediately after meeting her for the first time. Erica is a true artist with a camera with her ability to capture every emotion behind the photos. She was willing to trek through the woods with us in December for our engagement shoot, then run around downtown Hartford for our first look, capturing every bit of joy and excitement my husband, family, friends and I had for the day. There were several moments where I would toss out an idea for a photo, and Erica ran with it creating art beyond what I had imagined. She also posted a sneak peak of 11 photos the very next day for us to enjoy. Though we were married last Saturday, we have been looking at these photos the last two days and beaming. I'm so happy we went with Erica to document our treasured memories of this amazing day.

    BOOK THIS VENDOR! Working with Erica was a dream- from the moment we met her in her studio, to our photo reveal- we are so thrilled with our experience. We were able to modify our photo package to fit our needs, and Erica was amazing with helping us think and plan through the logistics of our day. When it came to our wedding day, we felt like we were spending the day getting photographed by an old friend. She took our ideas and ran with it, and was able to really capture the emotion and feeling of our day. You will not regret working with Erica and her team!

    After our initial photographer fell through we came across Erica's profile and knew that she was the perfect photographer for us. Her photos / style are so beautiful and she is extremely professional, quick to respond and always flexible to accommodate any needs we had.
    Most importantly, Erica's bright and caring personality helped make the whole experience fun and comfortable, which certainly helped to create beautifully natural photos.

    We cannot recommend Stella Blue enough!!!

    Erica, I have never met a photographer as dedicated to her job as you. You capture not only faces with smiles, but emotions, gestures, and expressions that can take us back in time and remember exactly how happy we felt. I just want to say thank you for all of your hard work. Every single photoshoot we've done has been beyond perfection. All of those pictures are part of my life, my story. Every single person that sees my pictures wants to know exactly who you are and how I met you and describe your work as unique. I remember your dedication in taking my 10 month old pictures, with so much patience you asked me to wait until she was ready, that we still had half an hour until the sun went down. My daughter wouldn't stop picking on grass. And even though it was a rainy day, the pictures were amazing. My daughter loves you, and was so happy to spend time with Stella who is such a sweet girl. I can't wait to get my wedding photo album, which was made out of 400 hundred pictures. It was impossible for me to decide which were my favorite 30. Every single picture was my favorite. Thank you so much, I wish you the best always. I'm sure your career as a photographer will be what you always dreamed of.

    Weddings to Family Photos.. Stella Blue is the one!

    We used Stella Blue Photo recently for branding photos for our website! We put Erica to the challenge when we brought our 2 year old with us! As you may know, photographing a 2 year old is not an easy task! Erica was so professional and made my daughter laugh so much that she was able to get some amazing family photos! Erica makes you feel so comfortable and we never felt rushed! We received our beautiful photos just a week later! We can't thank her enough! On the flip side, as wedding vendors ourself, we worked alongside Stella Blue Photography in May of 2019, we watched her photograph and navigate through the couples' portrait photos with ease! She even went as far as helping the bride walk along rocks near the water to obtain an amazing shot! If you need a wedding photographer, stop right here! Erica with Stella Blue is amazing!

    Thank you! xo - Danleigh Videography

    Erica captured every moment of my wedding beautifully! She went down and checked out the venue beforehand to make sure she knew the area and could find the best spots for our photos, I very much appreciated that. Erica is very warm and friendly, she really made everyone feel at ease (especially all of our little ones!). We couldn't have asked for a better photographer, our photos are amazing! I would highly recommend Erica, Stella Blue Photography, to anyone!

    Stella Blue Photography did an amazing job. My husband and I , we are so happy. We had a civil wedding at Hawks Landing Club in Southington and a baptism of my son at Saint Joseph Church. We love every picture, and we were very please with their work. If I will get marry again at church with my husband, I will totally pick Stella Blue Photography to be part on my special day one more time. Great work, amazing pictures.

    Stella Blue Photography was a dream to work with. She took a family photo session for me, my husband and my two year old son. We met up at an apple farm in Litchfield County on a beautiful but brisk fall day. She was relaxed, saw the orchard as a backdrop picking spot after spot for us to be, how to pose to make us all look our best when the situation called for it, and otherwise, followed us and photographed the morning. She provided us with beautiful photos and we were thrilled to use them for our Christmas card this year as well as share them with family. Can't wait to frame some to display in our home.

    Erica at Stella Blue Photo was simply outstanding. She not only captured all of the key moments of our wedding, she also captured all of the emotion - the joy, the love, the laughter - in each of those moments. Erica took beautiful, intimate photos of our reception and our guests enjoying the celebration. And she did so in a way that was unobtrusive - in fact we rarely remember her taking any of the pictures we later saw. We have received compliments from our friends and family across the globe on our wedding photos, and we recommend Stella Blue Photo to everyone we know who is getting married. We honestly couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer.

    Stella Blue Photo's reply:

    It was such an honor to capture your day Allison. Not only were you a beautiful bride, but you were so down to earth. When you asked me in the middle of your getting ready, "can I get you some juice or a snack?" I immediately could see why all the friends around shared such closeness. You are always thinking and doing for others. I was struck by your amazing friendships and it was an honor to capture this day with such amazing people. Congratulations again, I know for a fact that your marriage is every bit as beautiful as your day:)

    We loved having Erica as our wedding photographer. She made us feel very comfortable posing for photos, despite the fact that we are both shy people. The photos came out amazing. We were so pleased with the quality. My only comment is that the photos took longer than we hoped to get back, but they were definitely worth the wait!
