About Us

Welcome to Snap Shots Unlimited, the creative force behind SSUPhoto, SSUPhoto Designs, and Totally Hitched — three unique brands built on passion, family, and the love of creating something memorable for every customer we meet.

Our Story

It all started back in 2002, when owners Dwayne and Sarah Thomas combined their creative talents to start a small photography and graphic design business. What began as a home-based venture quickly grew into a full-service creative company focused on capturing moments, designing brands, and helping others express themselves through custom-made products.

From 2004 to 2006, we ran our first portrait studio in East Windsor, CT. When we bought our first home in Enfield, we decided to bring the business closer to family — converting the lower level of our home into a working studio so Dwayne could stay home with the kids while continuing to build our brand.

In 2015, we expanded our services to include photo booths, giving customers another fun way to capture memories. By 2019, we launched Totally Hitched, our one-of-a-kind camper photo booth brand, which quickly became a favorite at weddings, festivals, and special events across New England.

Adapting and Growing

When COVID-19 hit, like so many small businesses, we faced major challenges. But instead of slowing down, we got creative. Dwayne began designing for other crafters and even produced thousands of custom masks from our basement workshop. Out of that creative hustle came a new direction — and in 2020, SSUPhoto Designs was officially born.

Our design brand focuses on custom apparel, personalized gifts, logo design, marketing materials, and branded swag for both individuals and businesses. Whether it’s a single gift for someone special or full branding for a growing company, our mission is to bring your ideas to life with quality and creativity.

By 2021, we opened our first retail store in the Enfield Square Mall, specializing in custom tumblers and sublimation products. The business grew so quickly that, just a year later, we expanded into a larger 3,500 sq. ft. space, sharing it with our friend’s business, Galaxy Pops and Beyond. Despite the success, mall traffic continued to decline — and when news broke that the mall was being sold and torn down, we knew it was time for a new chapter.

A New Home

In 2024, we found the perfect location for our SSUPhoto Designs store in Colony Plaza at 978 Sullivan Ave, South Windsor, CT. What was once a dance studio is now our beautiful new storefront — remodeled, reimagined, and thriving more than ever before. This move allowed us to refocus on what matters most: serving local customers, supporting other small businesses, and continuing to create unique, personalized products that make people smile.
