I took an early interest in photography thanks to my father, a passionate amateur photographer who was constantly documenting our family. I can remember spending hours pouring over old photo albums, captivated by the magic of feeling transported into the past. I became fascinated with the way a photo can tell a story, framing our memories and shaping the way we see the world. I pursued my love for image-making at The Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). Since then my wedding photography has been featured in many publications, including Martha Stewart Wedding Magazine, The Knot Magazine, Philadelphia Weddings and Style Me Pretty. I’ve been a professional photographer since 2008, and since 2012 I have focused my efforts on weddings. I've had the pleasure of creating many meaningful relationships with my couples, often continuing to document their families as they grow.

It is impossible for me to sum up how fabulous Emily was as our wedding photographer. Between having our child and having to capture a 1 year old on such a chaos day, she got some photos that captured the beauty of our family perfectly. She was professional and kind, she had amazing ideas and she loved our party energy. She captured every moment of joy and happiness. The beauty of the pictures speak for themselves, we never had to worry about one thing she had everyone ready to go and made sure we got all our family photos and important people. She is beyond talented with her work and her team is AMAZING. Being one of the most important people on our wedding day, she exceeded every expectation. Our wedding photos are the best - they make me so filled with happiness and I can feel the pure celebration in every photo. Thank you Emily and Antony for making our day flawless.
Emily Wren is by far the most talented photographer ever! I am always amazed how beautiful her photos are. She truly is exceptional!! If I could give her a million stars, I would! After all these years, Emily is an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. I first reached out to Emily Wren in 2016. Emily Wren has been there for every milestone in our journey, serving as our engagement, wedding, maternity, newborn, and family session photographer. Each time, she has surpassed our expectations with her incredible talent and dedication.

Emily did our engagement and wedding photos, and I could not be more happy with how they turned out and also the entire process! She was so organized, friendly, easy to work with and talented! She helped lay out the day and had great suggestions. Her work is timeless and beautiful, I could not recommend her more!
Getting the chance to work with Emily and her team was one of the highlights of our wedding planning experience. After checking out her work I knew I had to act quickly and was thrilled to be able to work with her!
From the start Emily makes this special time in your life feel that much more important - she was so kind and sent a sweet gift that included vow books we ended up using on our wedding day. The prep pre-wedding is also very efficient and helped guide other timelines for the big day.
Sarah on her team shot our engagement photos and our wedding day, along with her second shooter Stan. The photos are stunning and Sarah was great about keeping us on schedule and handling a very large bridal party with ease while also making taking tons of photos fun! Stan was a great addition and it was wonderful to have a second shooter - we knew everything was covered.
I will sound like a broken record to repeat after other reviewers but Emily’s style and editing is truly timeless. I can’t stop looking at the pictures and smiling at the moments that were captured. They are light, refreshing, beautiful and most importantly feel like us. Not overly produced like some wedding photos can be. This set of photos is something we will treasure and appreciate always, especially so many beautiful photos of us as a couple but also the people who love and support us! I recommend Emily and team without hesitation!

Working with Emily and Gregg was an absolute dream and one of the best decisions we made in our planning process! Their talent and kindness is immeasurable and hard to put into words. We knew we wanted to use both Emily and Gregg as soon as we saw their work and had preliminary conversations with them. They worked hard to ensure we (two brides) and our families were comfortable throughout our entire wedding planning process and especially on the wedding day. Not only were Emily and Gregg wonderful, but their entire photo and video team that day was also filled with immense talent and professionalism. The photos and videos they've delivered have been incredible and we can't wait to have another reason to use them for photo and video.
Emily Wren and her husband Gregg (Wren Films) are the ultimate power couple that you NEED capturing your wedding. We have been laughing and crying looking over the photos and videos in the very best way. It was an honor to have such a fun loving and energetic team capturing our special day. We had Emily, Gregg, Gabby, Nick, and Stan on photo/video for our wedding weekend, and the entire team are true professionals. The attention to detail is simply unparalleled. From adjusting the train of my dress to the perfect position, to micing my husband up for our private vows so we could record them but then physically giving us more space so the vows could feel private... Emily and her team know the precise moments when it's best that they disappear into the periphery versus when to get up close and personal with us to inject some humor into a moment with us. This sensitivity and awareness is key when photographing a wedding day and the team could not have executed their jobs more flawlessly. Stan did an incredible job with our film shots, Gabby was an absolute joy to work with at our rehearsal dinner, and Nick, clad with a miniature speaker on his belt loop, was on the money all day capturing the groomsmen and assisting as second shooter for the rest of the day. Emily, Gregg, and the team are not only true artists and professionals, but they are genuinely the most high quality humans and the exact type of people you want to surround you on the most important day of your life. We truly feel they are apart of our village now! It is a special privilege to share your wedding day with a couple who obviously loves each other so much because it uplifts the whole vibe of your day- trust me, hire them both!! Our only regret about hiring Emily Wren photography and Wren Films is that we don't have another event coming up in the near future. We're chomping at the bit for our next excuse to hire them again!
Hiring Emily and her husband Gregg as our photographer and videographer was the best decision ever. Emily was the first vendor I hired and set the tone for the rest of my planning process. She was professional and understanding from day 1, she truly is the best of the best. Her expertise helped ease all my stress on the day of my wedding as the weather impacted our day of plan. She managed all of our family and wedding party so seenlessly and was able to grab every shot we asked for. By the end of the night Emily, Nick, and Gregg were part of our family and joined us on the dance floor for a final moment together. We have received nonstop compliments about our photos and video, as they truly emulate our love and the day to perfection. As the months have gone on we have continued to talk to Emily and her team and have enjoyed the relationship we’ve built with them. We will DEFINITELY use Emily and her team for any and all future photography/videographer needs.
