Awarded Best of Zola
I had the wonderful opportunity to have found Artesia while researching early on my wedding. I loved the photo examples they take and wanted that style for the photos I get to keep forever. Reaching out to the team was easy through email, had great communication with the team and Pat. I met with Pat via email 6 months out and the week before the Wedding to meet our Photographer, Felicia. So easier to communicate and answer any questions I had and get a better idea of locations, times, and what we wanted to have photos of. She was incredibly kind and was amazing! It was so much smoother since I had been working with my coordinator to create a photo list for the day but she was also very flexible and knowledgeable of photos we could take by our reception area and downtown SA. I cannot wait to get these photos printer and displayed forever! I loved everything she did and the amazing photos she took for the Ceremony and the Reception!

I’m Jessie & my husband is Dylan. We are a husband and wife duo serving Austin Texas and Beyond... We are high school sweethearts and have been together since we were 16 years old. We have three crazy kiddos and two golden doodle pups, named Kevin and Theodore. We are the crazy couple who is always dancing and having way too much fun wherever we go (just ask our friends; or better yet, you will probably become one!) We have to pinch ourselves on a daily basis, reminding us that this is real life and this is our job! We have the pleasure of capturing and telling people’s love story. Your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jessie and Dylan were the best choice we could have ever made! From the beginning they made us feel so comfortable and it really just felt like we were working with our friends. They were quick to communicate, worked with our schedule and made the whole thing so easy! On the day of the wedding they made us feel so at ease and comfortable and were so caring and considerate. Taking photos was so fun and they turned it into a really specific part of the wedding and not at a chore which I think it could have been. And then we got the photos back (so quickly!) and they are breathtaking. They are more than I could have ever hoped for and we are so grateful for them. 12/10 I would recommend this pair! They are the best people and we loved working with them!!

Ray Faye Creative Co. was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. Their communication style via text and email was always prompt, professional, and personable. The quality of their work and value was truly exceptional - there is no comparison. Dani captured every moment before and during our special day, and even stayed an extra hour at the last minute to ensure no detail was missed. She went above and beyond with every detail we wanted captured. Words truly aren't enough to describe our experience. This is the second time we've worked with them, and both times it was fun, comforting, and effortless. We cannot recommend Ray Faye Creative Co. highly enough.

Stephanie Renae Co. Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves Bandera, TX

My approach: Humans first, photographs second. In a very fast-paced, social media driven society, I strive to create art that fosters connection and community. Instead of focusing my photography career on “How can I take a pretty photo?” it became “How can I get to know this person and showcase who they are through this photograph?”. The best way to do that is by digging deep and getting to know the real you. Becoming your friend, confidant, and go-to person throughout this journey. And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Awarded Best of Zola
My fiance and I have never had pictures before, except those awkward family photos most people had growing up. Stephanie and I met virtually after I saw her work and immediately I felt comfortable, seen, validated, and most of all...I trusted her. She seemed confident in taking pictures to capture a date (as she lovingly put it.."act as though it's a normal date but you have paparazzi") and made us feel comfortable-we didn't have to put on a show to get amazing pictures. Upon meeting at Enchanted Rock, she gave us a sweet speech about acting like she wasn't there unless she gave us directives- my fiance loved the directives, he's good at following those- and every single picture made it clear why she is pursuing a career in photography. There were even times when Stephanie would step back after a picture and smile, like she KNEW she had taken a great photograph. We are so excited to have these hanging in our home soon as we start building a "how it started and how it's going wall" in our home. When pictures are wanted in the future, I know who I am going to call-and you should too! Thanks again Stephanie, for the pictures, but also for bringing your laugh, business mindset, friendliness, and compassion to picture day. P.S.: if I could give her more than five stars, I absolutely would.

Royce & Michelle were absolutely great. They made the entire process of finding a photographer super easy and form the fist time talking to them we could tell they were perfect for us. Their candid style was beautiful and the moments they captured were incredible. I knew we would feel apprehensive about being photographed, but their approach had us laughing and completely forgetting about the cameras.

Hi! I am Lauren and I am the face behind the camera here at Lauren Crumpler Photography. I am a taco lovin' Texas native that grew up exploring the outdoors. I have lived all over but now find myself nestled out in the Hill Country with my husband and two English Bulldogs, Lou and Arnold. I was raised in a large family and they mean the world to me - that is why it is such a huge honor to photograph you and yours. My passion is capturing couples in head over heels, can't eat, can't sleep, reach for the stars, over the fence, world series kind of love. Weddings and elopements are my jam but I love all photo shoots that incorporate family.

Lauren Crumpler was the absolute BEST person to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process and wedding day. She's the comedic relief when you need it, she's the one that makes you smile when you're exhausted, she's the one who will fix you bustle when you husband steps on it 3 times throughout the night, she's the one that makes sure you get all the picture you want and more. If I could do it all again, I would pick a couple other vendors differently. But I would always choose Lauren and so should you!

John was amazing from start to finish! We met John at some open houses we went to in our planning process and ended up at Hofmann Ranch and we decided to use John as our photographer to capture our special day and our engagement shoot. Our engagement photos were taken at the Historic Market Square in San Antonio on the almost hottest, sunniest day, and they turned out incredible - we used our engagement photos for our save-the-dates, wedding website, and table décor. He was super responsive, answering all our questions, met with us via Zoom before the shoot and wedding day, and helped us create a timeline early in the planning process. On the wedding day, John was a joy to have around -  he’s fun, personable, and able to seamlessly fit in with our big wedding parties and families. Despite all the chaos, he wrangled everyone and captured every shot we wanted. He was creative, quick on his feet, and even took extra photos and videos with his phone, which we loved. The sneak peeks we’ve seen so far are fantastic, and we can’t wait for the full portfolio. John was absolutely the best investment we made for our wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
We weren’t planning a traditional wedding, so we knew we needed a photographer who went against the grain, someone fun, energetic, go-with-the-flow, and who would make us feel comfortable while also giving direction for the best shots. As a same-sex couple, we also wanted someone who fully supported us and made us feel seen. Jackie with Eyeronic Love Photography was all of that and so much more. From the moment we met her, Jackie made us feel completely at ease. Despite planning the entire wedding ourselves and feeling overwhelmed by so many details, we never once stressed about photography. We knew it was taken care of. She even made the long drive out to Marfa, TX from San Antonio without hesitation. On the wedding day, Jackie fit in so seamlessly that besides the cameras hanging off her body, you honestly wouldn’t have known she was a vendor. She was right there with us on the dance floor and in the middle of the festivities, capturing everything without ever feeling intrusive. She gave us great direction when we needed it, and hyped us up the whole time. We originally found her because we were searching for someone with LGBTQ representation in their portfolio and someone who had experience shooting in Marfa. There are tons of photographers out there, but Jackie is truly top-tier. Her personal touches, thoughtful branding, and genuine care for her couples shine through in everything she does. We will recommend her to anyone and everyone. Jackie is simply the best!

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time!

Shannon was absolutely perfect! She made our wedding day truly special. She was attentive, professional, clear and concise, and so well prepared for the day. She eased my stress and took a load off my shoulders when I was worrying about all of the small details. Not to mention she saved me with eye drops when I got an eyelash in my eye and looked like I had pink eye 30 minutes before having to walk down the aisle. Not to mention, she had a gallery of nearly 100 photos for us as sneak peeks sent in two weeks, when she had two other weddings on her books within a week of mine. It was truly a wonderful experience to work with her!!

I've been a photographer for over a decade and that journey has made me come to realize that nothing makes me happier than making those behind my lens feel amazing about themselves. My goal is to be so much more than your photographer. I'd love for you to consider me your friend especially because we'll be spending a lot of time together on your wedding day. Trust me to help fix any strands of hair that get in your face, straighten out your outfits, help you pose, and encourage you to enjoy this momentous day.

Tooney was such a gem to work with! We were so lucky to have her shoot our journey, all the way from our proposal, to the engagement photos and last with our wedding day. She made us feel extremely comfortable and confident behind the camera. Tooney was also so great at communication and organization. On our wedding day, our ceremony officiant went over schedule, and Tooney was ready to get us going and staying on schedule. She captured our big day so beautifully. I truly felt like we were able to relive the day through every shot. She captured some moments I didn’t even remember so it was magical to see! I highly recommend Tooney to every couple out their planning their big day!!!! Thank you so much Tooney!!!
