“Original Weddings was hands down the greatest thing that could have happened to us when it came to documenting our wedding. These professional photos are INCREDIBLE. I'm not easily pleased with photos of myself so you can trust that I'm not out here giving praise to just anyone! I don't know how they pulled it off, but I seriously love every shot. We ended up getting over 1,100 photos that captured the entire evening and it's undeniable that Diallo and Michael are masters of their craft. Diallo also did our engagement photos and managed to get every shot to look amazing despite the fact that the weather was actively working against us. He made that wind work, let me tell you!!! On top of the talent of the photographers and the editors, the entire team has unbeatable professionalism. From the very start we had no trouble at all receiving guidance, answers to questions, and support. I could not send higher praises. Book them for everything!!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Picking Duet Photo & Video for our wedding this past October was one of THE best decisions we made when planning our wedding!! From the initial meeting with Hanel, my husband and I immediately felt comfortable and excited to share our vision for our wedding. Throughout the entire year of planning, Hanel and his team were so receptive and helpful in accommodating anything we needed to make sure our vision came to life! After our engagement session with Mike, we knew we were in the best of hands for our wedding. On our wedding day, there was a bad storm but Mike, Michael and Michelle did not let that get in the way of capturing our celebration. They were on their A game and present at every single moment and found creative ways to get beautiful shots. Throughout the wedding, they came up to us to make sure that we were getting the photos that we discussed were must haves. They know how caught up in the excitement a bride and groom can get, so it was nice to know they were on top of the pictures we wanted. After getting our full gallery back, we were reminded again how happy we are that we chose Duet. They managed to stay invisible while still capturing every single magical moment. These photos are vibrant and full of life and love. We gave them liberty to be creative with our wedding video and it came out even more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! My husband and I were over the moon to be able to relive the most incredible day of our lives through our photos and videos. If you want a wedding photographer who treats you like family and has an incredible eye for capturing every magical moment, you have to choose Duet!!”

Hey there! I'm Matthew, an experienced photographer with nearly 30 years of experience behind the lens specializing in budget-friendly, high-quality photography based out of Leander, Texas. I have been shooting since I was about ten years old on 110 cameras, in high school I learned to shoot on a 35 MM camera. Professionally I accepted my first paid shoot in 1996, a boudoir session for the girlfriend turned wife of a friend deploying overseas with the Army. I earned $50 and a six-pack of beer for a one-hour session on a Canon AE1 35 MM film camera I bought at a yard sale.

Awarded Best of Zola
“A little advice for anyone planning a wedding: Your photographer is incredibly important. You can’t recreate the feelings, the expressions, or the pure joy of those once-in-a-lifetime moments. Matthew Chambers had the hard task of recreating our wedding photos when our original photographer failed. Matthew not only took the challenge but he crushed it. He turned around our photos very quickly. When we got our photos, what Matthew Chambers was absolutely priceless. I completely understand not wanting to go into debt for one day, but please remember: photos last forever. They are the one thing that keeps those moments alive. If you’re looking for someone dependable, reliable, and budget-friendly, I highly recommend Matthew Chambers Photography”

“Words cannot express how amazing it was to work with Misha & his Quality Media team. Misha went above & beyond to make us feel comfortable & direct us while taking every shot. The team made us incredibly comfortable & prioritized all of our wants & needs above all. We planned our wedding in less than 90 days & Misha was there to guide us every step of the way...giving us the best recommendations! The entire Wedding flowed seamlessly thanks to the amazing team work between all of our vendors & the venue! Overall great experience! We received amazing quality work, with great communication & flexibility. We were incredible fortunate to have found and booked Misha and the Quality Media photography & videography team! Bonus: Don't be fooled, Misha knows how to break it down on the dancefloor too.”

“We had the best experience shooting our engagement pictures with Mohammed! Before the day, he was quick to communicate, but not pushy, he was flexible when we adjusted the time a few days before shooting, and he was very straightforward with pricing, payment, and all technical details like that. He arrived early to set up so we could start right on time, and he guided us through posing during our session while still capturing our spontaneous moments as well. His vibe was warm and calm, which is exactly what I needed to feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos are BEYOND gorgeous and he got the edits back to us in an extremely quick turnaround. I would recommend him to anyone doing lifestyle photos or couples photography of any kind. He made our day feel easy and super special!”

McKinney, TX
  • Fine art style

I'm Michael Anthony, a wedding photographer based in Dallas–Fort Worth, with a second studio in Los Angeles. I shoot across DFW — Dallas, Fort Worth, McKinney, Frisco, Prosper, Plano — and travel for couples marrying farther afield. Nine countries and 1,000+ weddings so far. My approach is editorial and unobtrusive. I document the day rather than direct it, because I want your images to make you feel the moment again, not simply see it. I take a limited number of weddings each year so each one gets real attention. Tell me your date and venue and I'll confirm availability right away.

“What a great experience!!! They were so professional and the photos came out great. I hired Michael Anthony Photography for my engagement pictures and my wedding. They showed up early and were so amazing. They went above and beyond to make our day very special and memorable. I couldn’t be happier with how the day went. My picture came back very fast and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend them! Thanks again Michael Anthony Photography!!”

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
