Matthew Chambers Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (51 reviews)
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves McDade, TX

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.

I AM MAGIC. AND SO ARE YOU. I am a storyteller — a romantic at heart, a seeker of beauty, and a quiet observer of the in-between. My name is Morgan Elise, and I am a documentary-rooted, editorial-inspired wedding photographer based in Austin, Texas — though I’ll follow love wherever it takes me.

Awarded Best of Zola
When I was looking for a wedding photographer, my main goal was to find a photographer that could capture the raw emotions of the day. I looked through HUNDREDS of photographers and Morgan stood out for the way she balanced artistry, emotion, and detail. Morgan captured the most stunning images of my wedding. I am so impressed by the way she was able to capture our personalities in the photos. Not only did we receive beautiful still portraits, but we received pictures that made us feel like we were reliving the moments. That’s exactly what you want from a wedding photographer. On top of the beautiful images, Morgan is a joy to work with. She is kind and uplifting, extremely professional, and turns the photos around extremely fast. Morgan was one of the best choices I made for our wedding and you should absolutely choose her too.

Awarded Best of Zola
For my wedding, our venue required a day-of coordinator, which was the best thing that happened, because it allowed me to meet Mary Anna! When I met her on Zoom, I knew she was the right fit for us. Her kindness, her responsiveness, and her ability to answer any question you have (and there are so many!) make the overwhelming process of planning a wedding so much easier. I cannot recommend her enough, and would highly suggest hiring her for month-of coordination, as that last 30 days was such a whirlwind, and Mary Anna's constant communication - with me and with all our vendors - was priceless. She was an invaluable resource for all the questions I had throughout the planning process, she has experience with so many different vendors and venues, and she was a great support when things get stressful, as they inevitably do! On our wedding day, she was on top of everything; I literally could just get ready and be excited to get married, knowing everything was in her hands and taken care of. She is super smart, capable, organized, and the kindest person you'll meet. I don't know what I would have done without her; I know she probably had other weddings she was working on, but you would never know it - she will make you feel like you and your wedding is her top priority, because that's how she approaches her work. Our day went off without a hitch, and that is all due to Mary Anna's planning and organization. I can't thank her enough for all her hard work - she is amazing!

Two Shakes and a Twist completely exceeded our expectations! From the very beginning, they were easy to contact, responsive, and genuinely excited to help make our big day perfect.

The bartenders were incredibly time-efficient (our guests never had to wait long for a drink!) and they went out of their way to make sure my husband and I were taken care of all night. One of the standout touches was the adorable custom bar sign they helped create—it added the perfect personal detail to our setup! As for the drinks—perfection. Our signature cocktails were an Old Fashioned, a Ranch Water, and a Pomegranate Lemon Martini (which they recommended and it turned out to be absolutely delicious and so refreshing—especially for our Texas June wedding).

We have nothing but positive things to say about our time at Lucky Arrow. It’s been a little over a year since our wedding, and looking back as we write this review makes us wish we could do it all over again. To help give a sense of just how great this venue is, we’ll break down our review into a few categories. Location & Facilities: We were looking for something close to Austin, yet still felt like an escape from the city. From the quaint charm of Dripping Springs’ downtown to the stunning hill country views, to the modern cabins and accessible walking paths, it truly felt like we had traveled to our own private oasis. The main highlights of the venue—besides the cabins themselves—were the Overlook, Event Center, Beer Garden, trails, and the nearby Brewery & Winery (all within walking distance). The restaurant wasn’t open at the time of our wedding, but we’re sure it’s fantastic. We really took full advantage of the Beer Garden during our time at Lucky Arrow. We hosted a Halloween party there, and the staff was incredibly accommodating, allowing us to decorate the space to fit the theme. It was a blast! We also hosted our wedding breakfasts there for all our guests, which made for such a relaxed and enjoyable morning. The only rule was to leave it as we found it—and we made sure to do just that. It’s such a versatile space, and we loved how it added to the overall experience. We could have stayed for so much longer and still wouldn’t have had enough time to fully enjoy everything the site has to offer. Our guests stayed two days on-site with us, but if you can swing it, we’d highly recommend three full days: arrival day, wedding day, and a fun after-wedding day. You’ll want to keep the celebration going—trust us! Accommodations: The cabins were exactly what we were looking for, and the photos online are an accurate representation. We wanted a modern and comfortable stay while still feeling immersed in nature, and the cabins delivered on that perfectly. Everything was clean, and surprisingly, we didn’t have any uninvited bug guests inside! Customer Service: One of the areas where Lucky Arrow truly shines is customer service. Every staff member we worked with was so kind and helpful. As you might expect, planning a wedding can be stressful, and it makes such a difference to work with people who genuinely care and take the time to listen to your needs. The biggest advocate for us at Lucky Arrow was Rachel Crocker, the Events Manager. She joined the team closer to our wedding date, and we’re so glad she did! This is the time when communication ramps up, and you’re bombarded with questions to finalize all the details. Rachel was incredibly prompt and thoughtful in her responses, which gave us confidence that everything would go smoothly on our big day. She really shined when working with our Wedding Coordinators to implement Plan B for rain, which involved coordinating the setup of a tent and adjusting the location of both our ceremony and reception.

Erika of Fine Flowers of Austin went above and beyond for my wedding. From the first time we chatted over the phone to the day after the wedding, Erika was attentive to detail, made sure that everything was to our liking, and made us feel like a priority. She was prompt over email and always answered her phone. When I didn’t know what the arrangement would look like she invited me to her studio to look at vases, stands, dry products, greenery, and flowers to make sure that I was an informed consumer. Erika was also flexible and accommodating in regards to transportation - we had two venues: a venue for the ceremony and a venue for the reception. For example, when the two tallest arrangements we had needed to be secured physically to the stands we used, Erika went above and beyond to come up with a plan to transport the arrangements from the ceremony venue to the reception venue. She made sure that our wedding was stress-free, beautifully decorated, and personalized. You won’t go wrong hiring Erika to make your special occasion the best it can be.

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.

The Pub Pony– is a mini pony beverage service designed to entertain guests during cocktail hour and beyond. We're a family owned and operated company, hoping to add a unique touch to an already special event with our paint pony, Rolo. He has a sweet disposition and a heart of gold that everyone falls in love with instantly! His baskets can serve guests their beverages, party favors, or anything else a client can imagine!

Awarded Best of Zola
The Pub Pony was an exceptional addition to our daughter’s graduation party! Nicole was prompt, descriptive, and encouraging throughout the entire planning process. Her professionalism and organization was unmatched - Rolo came equipped with ice bags to keep drinks cold on our warm summer afternoon, and Nicole even purchased him a graduation cap to wear, making our photos even more adorable. Nicole and Rolo truly made our daughter's graduation party exciting for all of our guests, not just for us as the hosts. Rolo was so sweet and open to receiving love and attention from everyone in attendance. We would absolutely book The Pub Pony again for another event - they were a highlight of the day.

We're a family boutique concentrating on the music & lighting. We appreciate how many details go into planning an event & to make booking your music team easy we’ve made it simple by assembling our most requested services with everything you need for the entire day with one price point!

Our overall experience was great! DJ Pitch Black kept the party jumping! There were some very minor mistakes made with the wedding party music starting earlier than expected, and our wedding party names when being introduced, but overall that's nothing compared to the wonderful time everyone had dancing! Our guests and I had a wonderful time!

I’m Nae, the heart and hands behind The Brown Sugar Experience. I plan weddings with soul, intention, and deep care, creating moments where love can breathe and be fully seen. My work is rooted in culture, connection, and crafting a day that feels like home from the first look to the final goodbye. I’m based in Austin and happily travel wherever love calls me. Weddings within sixty miles follow standard rates; outside that range, travel fees apply. Out of state weddings may require flights, but the heart I bring travels well.

Nae and the BSE team brought our vision for our big day to reality! We hired the Brown Sugar Experience for day-of coordination with a custom plan to help navigate us through our self-doubt and inexperience with hosting a huge gathering. Meeting Nae for the first time was like seeing an old friend that you can always count on to fall right back into step with you no matter how much time has passed. Nae is such a calming and easy-going presence and she never once broke a sweat coordinating our day. She listened and understood everything I wanted. As hard as it was for me to not hang around all day and set up for my own wedding, I knew we were in good hands with Nae and she absolutely exceeded expectations. By the time we arrived at our reception, everything was done for us and beautiful. It's not even a question if I would book the Brown Sugar Experience again, I 100% would!

Svetlik Farm was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! From the very beginning, they were incredibly responsive and quick to answer any questions we had. The venue itself is simply stunning - the moment we walked into the main hall, it tugged at our heartstrings. The gorgeous farmhouse and silo were an added bonus that allowed our bridal party and families to stay on site. The quality and value of this venue is unmatched, and we feel so grateful to have celebrated our special day in such a beautiful setting. We couldn't recommend Svetlik Farm highly enough!
