Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

We had a wonderful experience working with Sound Originals for our wedding photographer vendor. Our photographer did such an amazing job, he took so many beautiful photos, it's difficult to pick our favorite, lol. Which, is definitely the kind of problem you want to have. The entire process was so easy, it really removed a huge stressor from planning/the wedding day. We had so much fun working with Steve.

We booked Hey Love Studio for our wedding videography. When planning our queer wedding, it was really important to us to have queer vendors that really understood us! Valerie and Adeline took the time to get to know us over video calls and made sure we felt completely comfortable. They helped guide our wedding day while not making anything feel stiff or posed.

I’ve always been drawn to art and creativity, which is what led me to photography in 2018 after picking up my first camera. What started as curiosity quickly turned into a passion for capturing real moments and genuine connection. I’m easygoing, detail-oriented, and I truly care about the people I photograph. I love creating an experience that feels relaxed and natural—so you can be yourselves and enjoy the moment while I take care of the rest. Whether it’s an intimate celebration or a full wedding day, I’m fully present and invested in telling your story in a timeless, elevated way.

We’re so grateful to Alex he made everything go so smoothly for us and captured our wedding day so beautifully! The photos are absolutely stunning and truly reflect all the love and joy we felt that day. He captured so many amazing moments of our loved ones we’ll cherish forever. Highly recommend!

Jeremy Welborne

  • Serves Mertens, TX

As I’m writing this, my wife and I are about to celebrate 14 years of marriage together, and we’re raising three amazing kids along the way. The older I get, the more I believe weddings were never meant to be about perfection. They’re about promises, people, and the beginning of a real life together. That belief is at the heart of my approach and the reason behind my slogan: No Rules, Only Vows. Because somewhere along the way, the wedding industry started chasing perfection so hard that it forgot about honesty. If your wedding film could preserve one thing forever, what would it be?

Jeremy is such a joy to work with! His personality is truly one of a kind—he’s warm, upbeat, and makes you feel completely at ease in front of the camera. What really stands out about Jeremy is his creativity. He brings such unique ideas to the table, and you can tell he genuinely enjoys thinking outside the box to create something special. If you’re looking for someone who brings positive energy and a fresh perspective to your session, Jeremy is definitely someone you’ll enjoy having around!

Hi I’m Kari! I am an elopement and wedding photographer based in Texas but I am available to travel!!! Love has so much beauty and comes in so many forms which is why I love capturing it so much. Its never the same and everyone has their own love story. Telling that story is what I was meant for. Capturing the details, the raw moments, the beautiful imperfect moments, the moments that are filled with so much emotion and the moments you don’t get to see is what I was made for.

Kari was a dream to work with! We were scrambling to make new plans after rescheduling our original plans due to COVID and she took a huge weight off of our shoulders. She helped us put together an idyllic elopement in about 2 months. The day before the wedding, she scoped out the location and sent me pictures so I could be involved in the process, which I really appreciated! I wouldn’t change a single thing about our wedding day - it was absolutely perfect! And Kari captured the moments so wonderfully, you can really feel all the emotions when you look at the pictures! Thank you, Kari! We appreciate you!!!!

You’ll never want to forget your wedding day: the smell of your fresh bouquet, the moment when you grab your love’s hand at the altar, that romantic first kiss… And with exceptional wedding photography — images that balance light and composition to capture big smiles, happy tears, belly laughs and every emotion in between — you’ll never have to. Welcome to Photography of Sarah Mae.

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn't have picked a better photographer for our proposal, engagement and wedding photos. My husband made my dreams come true by A.) asking me to marry him and B.) securing a secret photographer to capture it! Meeting Sarah literally moments after being proposed to was a little startling but all that faded quickly. She was conscious to get great photos while not interrupting the moment and she seemed to be just as excited as I was. It was a no-brainer to continue to work with her for our engagement and wedding photos too. She put so much time into getting to know us, what we like, researching our wedding venue (Perot Museum) and setting a schedule of where to take photos and at what time in the evening would be best. She was easy to get in touch with pre and post-wedding and took the time to answer any questions we had, even late at night. We received sneak peeks of each session (proposal, engagement and wedding) very quickly and the quality was great. We're looking forward to working with her in the years to come. I would highly recommend her for your wedding, family photos or anything you want professionally captured.

Wedding photography for fun, loving people. I don’t have “-zillas”. Why? Because the people who hire me are happy people in love who really just want to be married. It’s that simple. No fuss, but some frills. Lots of laughter, lots of hugs, and from me…lots of bad dance moves. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer to capture genuine, raw emotions and real moments shared with your friends and family, look at the packages below and let’s find one that works best for you and yours. I believe that any two people who love and respect each other should be married. (If this isn’t your M.O, we may not be a great team.)

Cortnie is seriously the best photographer. She is so personable and does amazing work. She really knows how to capture the emotions happening throughout the wedding. From crying (good crying of course) to laughing she will get it all. <3 Can't say enough about her!

Let me tell you about my amazing experience with George Street Photo. From start to finish, they were there every step of the wedding planning process. They made it very easy on the wedding day. Not only were the photographers (John and the associate photographer Craig) professional, they went above and beyond on the big day to make us comfortable. Our venue did not have many picturesque spots for photography, but John and Craig killed it! They made it work and caught amazing photos outside and inside the venue as well. They talked to us like we were good friends, and posing for the shots was made simple and easy. They shot over 1,500 photos, all of which captured the moment and were very special to us. They are very high quality, and when I tell you the turnaround time for the photos was fast, well, it was FAST. They had those photos ready for us within 3 weeks. I’ve been told people wait much longer for their photos. I’m glad we picked George Street Photo, and had John and Craig on our special day. Thank you.

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
From our first conversation, we knew Morgan Elise Photography was the right choice for our engagement photos, wedding day and loved her work so much, we asked her to do our maternity shoot as well. She has this playful energy that instantly puts you at ease—even when I was 31 weeks pregnant, she made me feel beautiful and comfortable in my own skin. Morgan's encouragement and humor kept us relaxed throughout the shoot, reminding us to have fun instead of stressing about getting the perfect shot. Her photos capture something truly special: they're natural and ethereal, with a whimsical quality that feels dreamy. The work is elite-level, but what really sets her apart is how she sees your story and brings it to life in a way that feels uniquely yours. We couldn't be happier with Morgan and would recommend her to any couple looking for a photographer who cares about making your day feel effortless and joyful.

You don't want your wedding day to feel like a five-hour photoshoot. You want to actually live it.

If I could give Brayley more than 5 stars, I absolutely would!! From the very beginning, she was amazing. She was so communicative when I was first looking for a wedding photographer, and as the wedding got closer, she was always quick to answer my questions and put my mind at ease. She made the whole process feel so much less stressful. On our wedding day, she was everything we could have hoped for. She was friendly, organized, and so helpful, and she truly helped the day run smoothly. She made my husband, me, and our entire wedding party feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, which made such a difference. She was also just so much fun to be around. She brought the best energy all day and was the sweetest hype woman and cheerleader, which I absolutely loved. She made us feel so confident and made taking pictures feel easy. When she sent us our sneak peeks, we were honestly blown away. My stepmom and I might be a little biased, but we both agreed they’re some of the most beautiful wedding photos we’ve ever seen. We are absolutely obsessed with them!! Brayley is so talented at what she does, and I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer, and we’re so grateful she was part of our wedding day.

Cecilia is a talented photographer, skilled editor, and an absolute joy to be around. During the reception, many people came over to tell me how wonderful and professional she was. She's clear with her communication and expectations, and she ensures that she knows your wants/needs for the day. I felt at ease knowing I could trust one of the most important parts of our wedding to her. And WOW, did she deliver! We just got our full album back and I am blown away by the quality. Cecilia captured our day perfectly and I love being able to relive the day over and over again. She's amazing, I would book her for my wedding 1000 over!
