With in 5 mins of meeting Wendy and Traci, my husband and I knew we wanted to work with them. They are very caring and professional. They answered all of my questions prior to the wedding. They took our engagment photos, which i love. On the day of our wedding, they were very helpful, and great with our guests. I really cant say enough about them.

So Amazing!!!

We went with this photography group based off of our venues preferred vendors list and believe me I am so beyond impressed and happy we went with them! I met with Wendy and Traci to book their services for my September 2020 wedding and they were great! They were so easy to talk to and made tou feel so comfortable. They kept in touch and helped me find hair and makeup artist for my big day. On my wedding day I was running late and as soon as i hoped out of the car at the venue Wendy was right there to help. She helped me bring my things up to the bridal suite and still managed to get all the pre ceremony pictures i wanted so bad and she was so sweet the whole time, she even helped my bridesmaids with buttoning up my dress because they were scared they were going to rip off a button. After the ceremony she was great and was able to get all the family and bridal party pictures fast and easy so my groom and I could go off and get pictures of just us. I have never done professional photos for anything before and she made us so comfortable and made it alot of fun. During the receptions she gave us a sneak peek of the amazing photographs she had taken up to that point and i couldnt believe how amazing the photos were!! My guest were raving about how great they had came out and how nice it is that she did that for us and everyone to see! My wedding was just a few days ago but I cannot wait till we get all the photos from our very special day. I cant believe how beautiful these pictures are!

You will not be disappointed with Shades Shutters Photography!

I would recommend Shades Shutters Photography a million times over! Since meeting with Wendy and Traci from the beginning, I knew they would be professional and great to work with. Not only did we have them there on the wedding day, Wendy designed our Save the Dates, Invitations/RSVP cards, and thank you cards (with a photo of us). They were cohesive and matched the New England/Mystic vibe that we wanted. On the day of the wedding they were prompt, helpful, and you could tell that they loved what they did! They made taking photos fun and comfortable. One of my favorite things that they offer that I have not seen anywhere else is that during the dinner, they print out photos that they took that day and display them for your guests to see. We got to take those home at the end of the night and it was so great to already have photos from our special day in our hands. You will not be disappointed with hiring them for your special day!
