Ceelo Creative 
Rating: 5.0 (22 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Austin, TX

I started my photography journey taking photos of my wife. Watching her come to life with confidence was the greatest feeling in the world. And when she used that confidence to overcome her negative self-image, I knew I was onto something. I initially set out to ensure everyone I worked with knew what this felt like. After shooting with models and brands for a few years, I was asked to photograph my first wedding and the experience was unreal. Watching the sheer joy and happiness of the couple on their big day was so heartwarming and pure. I fell in love with capturing couples and haven't looked back since!

On the day of our wedding, Chris did a great job of giving us lots of options for couple photos and was happy to get lots of shots of us with our family members. The lighting in our photos is simply stunning, and really captures all the special moments of our day. We are thrilled with the quality of Ceelo Creative's work and the value they provided. Highly recommend them to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photographer!

Tyler Gets Weird 
Rating: 5.0 (17 reviews)
Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500

After getting out of the Marine Corps and photographing weddings for a larger "big box" company, I decided I wanted my own brand that really connects and cares about the couples I work with. And here we are 4 years later. I am a very "unprofessional professional". I love to have a good time and I embrace weirdness (will do your wedding for free if you're wearing all denim) but at the same time I also am very Type A; I love a good spreadsheet, I'm punctual, logistically minded, extremely detail oriented, and I will always advocate and/or problem solve for my couples on wedding day.

Tyler photographed our engagement photos in St. Augustine, and we are absolutely in love with them! I want to thank Tyler for being so patient and supportive. St. Augustine can be busy in the summertime and I was nervous about feeling calm enough to get the perfect shots. Tyler did an amazing job of explaining how he would achieve our vision and went above and beyond. We would recommend him to anyone looking to capture their happiest moments. His communication was kind, prompt, and full of great humor. Some of our favorites are attached!

We LOVED working with Diana. She took the time to get to know us beforehand and I think that made the wedding pictures even more special. We had a small intimate wedding and Diana seemed to fit right in. Her calm energy was contagious and the whole day was so smooth. And her pictures!! We LOVE them. They turned out beautifully and I’m so grateful we found such a wonderful, accepting, talented photographer.

Hi I'm Allie! I am a photographer and videographer based in Austin, TX. I have 17+ years experience in the wedding industry. Growing up, my Dad did wedding photography (on film!) and did that all throughout my childhood. Eventually, I got to tag along with him and he realized I had a natural eye for a good shot. Whenever I do weddings now, it always makes me nostalgic for the days I got to spend learning from him. Years later, he gifted me my first camera. Now, I have experience with weddings, short films, portraits, and more. If my work makes a connection with you, then I know I did my job.

Awarded Best of Zola
Allie was amazing all day at our wedding! She had great energy and smiles and moved all around the venue to capture some fantastic shots without interfering in any of the action. She even went above and beyond to provide us with some beautifully edited extra family photos which we are so grateful to have. Thanks again, Allie!!

Hey, thanks SO much for being here! I am honored you are checking out my page. I became a full time wedding photographer after realizing my connection to capturing love stories. I value connection, transparency, and having a fun time with my couples!

Tia is the best! We had so much fun with her on our wedding day! She understood that we wanted to get as many of the formal photos done pre ceremony so we could get to the actual party after. She captured some amazing images that I will treasure forever, and it’s only been a week so I’ve only seen the sneak peeks, there are still more to come! She was professional and thorough, we had a few calls prior to the big day to go over details and make sure we were all on the same page. Your photographer is the person you will send the most time with on your wedding day, so pick someone fun to be around! Tia is that person!

You want a photographer who knows what she’s doing, someone who can handle anything, read the room, and make you feel at ease from the first hello. I don’t show up to take photos, I show up to protect how your day feels. I guide you through the chaos, read the room, and make sure you never have to wonder what’s next. My couples choose me because they want art that feels alive and someone who actually gives a damn about their story.

Two Pair Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,800

We are the eyes behind TWO PAIR PHOTOGRAPHY. We are high school sweethearts. We don’t take ourselves too seriously. We’ve shot hundreds of weddings and it never gets old. We operate on a glass half full mentality for life. Sometimes sans rules. We shoot people for a living. Weddings, Engagements, Families, Brides, Seniors… We are Chad + Tressie and we love LOVE!

We booked Two Pair Photography less than a month out from our big day after switching from another photographer for other reasons. The fact that they responded quickly (the week of Thanksgiving), kindly, and compassionately meant the world! Fast forward to the day of, and they are there with two shooters, on-time. The main photographer (and one of the business owners), Chad, worked two locations that morning as the groom got ready at the hotel and the bride got ready at the venue. We had him for the full ten hours. The directed portraits portion of our wedding with our family and wedding party was also a blast! In less than three weeks after the wedding (with the holidays in the middle), we received 1000s of stunning photos! Talk about a great turnaround! Two Pair gave us a shareable link for our friends, family, and other vendors. Going through the photos has been such a delight. We've had so many friends tell us, "There will be 5-10 photos you love, and the rest will be okay." That is hardly the case for us - as we have fallen in love with 100s of them from the shoot! Absolutely worth the price and then some!

Sam Hugh Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500

I’m a hopeless romantic that's in an international long-distance marriage for almost ten years. I really enjoy documenting weddings. It’s one giant Rubik's Cube of composing interesting images, telling family history, figuring out the optimal light, and just getting to know people. My passion is to keep pushing my art and create a timeless product you will still cherish 50 years from now. I want to create honest photos that capture the realness of your relationships. I want to do more than tell a story, I want to capture the feelings and emotions of the day. I want to capture your quirkiness, your happiness, and the quiet moments in between.

There's so much that goes into having an exceptional vendor, and luckily, Sam is not only that but becomes a true friend and advocate for his clients on some of their sweetest days. I've had the honor of working alongside Sam as a fellow industry professional for a few years now as a venue manager and wedding planner. His communication before a wedding day is always thorough, friendly and kind. On wedding days, he's always very thoughtful on how he approaches each moment of the day, specifically with each couple in mind. He helps couples feel their most comfortable in front of a camera by simply documenting the natural feelings at bay and is able to coach clients through the day's events if they are feeling overwhelmed or unsure. He's big into being in the moment, letting the day happen organically and capturing those memories in time. However, he can also take charge wrangle up even the rowdiest of families during portrait time. We've worked together at a specific venue countless times and yet each gallery feels fresh and original. Although it's in the same venue, he always finds new ways to capture couples in that space that reflects the day as is instead of having a one size fits all gallery recipe. All of his galleries are unique and timeless. When it came time for me to be on the client end, my husband and I loved having Sam capture an anniversary session for us. We were blown away by his talent and ability to capture our personalities as they are instead of only having posed portraits. His work is clear and concise but also has a hint of artistic flair. He's down to try new things and experiment in the moment to see where it goes which has always led to fun during our shoots. We are so excited for him to capture more moments of our lives! We already have a full gallery wall dedicated to his work :)

Howdy, 🤠👋 we're Samuel & Karly, your adventure elopement wedding photographer videographer and planner team! We travel around the country (and world) in our DIY camper van documenting love stories in epic places like National Parks and other wonders of the world.

The plan started out as a trip to a US national park, but as we kept changing plans and evolving what we wanted, Sam and Karly were always so there for it and incredibly supportive. We eventually landed on a three day excursion around Switzerland. Having only had short planning conversations over the course of a year, I was a little nervous to see how we all vibed in person, but there was no need. Quickly, it felt like traveling around with friends. From seeing great spots for spontaneous photos to pizza and bouncing on a trampoline in a wedding dress and road tripping across the country, Sam and Karly really made this the experience of a lifetime. I couldn't imagine this elopement with anyone but them!

Wedding photography is so much more than snapping a few frames. It's about being a part of the experience, making connections, and meeting new people. Whether it's laughter, joy, or romance, there is nothing better than being able to show what a couple's love is all about through images. I care about the moments first and foremost. Let's create some magic, make memories, and have an experience that you won't soon forget!

John is such a pleasure on a wedding day. Very clear, direct and creative instruction to the couple along with an easy going attitude toward other vendors. I love his vibrant colors and rich tones. John is a master of not only natural light but off camera flashes which is a rare skill these days. Notice how great his reception photos look! Some photographers prefer to not even post their reception photos because they pale in comparison to the images they are able to get in daylight. John on the other hand is able to capture stunning, creative and well lit shots from beginning to end.

For those playfully and deeply in love! Color and Beam provides artful film and digital hybrid wedding and elopement photography based in Southern California and Texas, available for travel.

You spend your entire wedding day with your photographer, and Nicole is who you want on your team on your big day.

She stayed in close contact with my planner when we changed venues 3 weeks before the wedding, visited the site beforehand, and came with lots of ideas. She nailed my vision from start to finish. Her assistant was also a pleasure to work with & kept our rowdy group wrangled & on time. 10/10 would recommend!

Robyn made our engagement session one of the most memorable date nights my fiancée and I have had. We were nervous about being in front of a camera and wondered if our nervousness would show in the pictures. Robyn made us feel like models 5 minutes into our session and there were no more nerves. We were happily shocked at how much fun we had and how Robyn so easily coached us to feel natural/genuine in front of the camera. 10/10 experience and 10/10 pictures. Thanks Robyn!

We had a few different locations for our engagement shoot and in each location, he was able to find something unique, experimented with different framing, but was always able to keep us at ease in front of a camera. Overall he made the day really special and we left with a memorable set of images that we see every day on our walls! It was great working with him and I'll jump at any chance to do it again.

Austin, TX

My interest in photography sparked when I was young as I watched my dad photograph everything around him. I asked for my first camera when I was 8 years old, and from the first moment it was in my hands, I couldn't put it down. I photographed EVERYTHING from bugs to people to Beanie Babies, filling shoeboxes with negatives and little 3x5 prints. After coloring "backdrops" on notebook paper for each beanie babie and having a full-on photo shoot, I knew photography would be a part of my life forever. :P I photographed my first wedding in November, 2008: over 200 weddings, 7 countries, and 20 states later, and I am still loving every second.

Betsy shot our wedding as well as multiple family sessions for us and we can’t sing her praises any higher! I hate having my photo taken but she makes me (and everyone else) feel incredibly comfortable. She keeps things light and fun while still being a total professional! Our walls are covered with her photos and they bring us such joy.
