About

Tory Williams is a Connecticut-based photographer with over two decades of experience capturing people, interiors, and meaningful moments with clarity, color, and care.

Her work blends a documentary approach with a refined, editorial eye—highlighting natural light, vivid tones, and the emotional essence of each subject. Equally at home photographing people and the spaces they love, Tory’s clients range from individual creatives to brands, publications, and design professionals.

Originally from upstate New York, Tory’s creative journey began as the toddler muse in her mother’s photography class. After earning her degree, she chose photography over rafting guiding (a real fork-in-the-road moment) and launched her freelance career in New York City.

Now based in Fairfield County, Tory continues to work across Connecticut and Westchester, collaborating with clients who value creativity, energy, and an artful approach to storytelling.

I like to think that I could live in the woods, but really I just want my interiors to reflect the wild without all the bugs and bears. Designed by @field.house.design 💚

We’ve become dog people. Meet Pickles, our new best friend. He’s a couple months old and already learning how to sail. 🐾 All dog training advice welcome!

I found my new town in CT very randomly, and surprise, so many people from my past already lived here! I like to think following your gut works best, and in this case that’s definitely true. @barzaatar and I worked together in the NYC Wedding I
New work for @boleroadtextiles shot chez moi! We have so much light, almost too much light sometimes. Good problems! My green bedroom is my favorite, it blends with the outside view- big thanks to our friends at @backdrop for the perfect color.
I still dust off my old #rolleiflex film camera every once and a while to remind myself of the magic of film. Growing up in Rochester, the home of Kodak, gave me a head start on becoming obsessed with photography. Times have changed for sure, but the
If you ask me what my favorite thing to photograph is, it really depends on the day, but throughout all the years, portraits will always be the most challenging and rewarding. [In this shot, founders of @landl.us]
Waking up to this is my favorite kind of morning. I did name my daughter Winter after all. #neversummer #wintering
Maple syrup is flowing! This year we’re learning how to make it ourselves at one of our favorite community farms @ambler_farm. We’re leaning into the country life, but the kids still say they miss Brooklyn.
Local Westport chef @hemmakitchen serving farm to table breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Her weekly menus are healthy, creative and delicious, and best of all they save us so much time feeding our families. We captured these in the fall at @zadiesfarm.
🌈Ending the year under a rainbow with my family, not bad! After I took this picture we got stuck in the mud for 2 hours, some locals rescued us because me pushing the back was not doing the trick. Life is full of rainbows and muddy pits, for 2025 I

I just finished a project with @cgreeninteriors and feel so inspired. Each room takes you on a worldly adventure of color and culture. It reminded me why I fell in love with shooting spaces, they tell a personal story of the people’s lives who
