Waco, TX
  • Photojournalistic style

My name is Taylor & I am a photographer based out of Waco, Texas - but traveling all over! My favorite thing about couples and wedding photography is getting to capture people in their element, saving those small moments forever. My approach to photographing couples is to capture genuine interactions and connection.

I have had the honor of working with Taylor several times and each time she was been so easy to communicate with, fun to work with, and has sent amazing galleries! Leading up to the day, I was able to easily communicate my ideas and would always receive positive feedback in return! On the actual day, she is a ball of positivity, and so fun to work with. She keeps the energy levels high, and keeps a positive attitude! Her shooting and editing style is so unique to her and the results are always stunning!! She loves to think outside of the box when shooting! I definitely recommend choosing Taylor for your wedding day! Her energy and positive attitude will be a great boost to your day and to your shoot, and the beautiful photos you receive will never disappoint!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Portraits By Sean was an exceptional choice for our wedding photography. They had great communication from start to finish, which made the planning process smooth and stress-free. They were extremely helpful in getting all the photos we wanted and more - Sean was very thorough, very prompt and very patient in capturing every moment. He arrived early and was extremely patient in making sure we got everything done that we wanted. We couldn't be happier with the quality of their work and the value they provided on our special day.

The photographer, Jonathan, and his assistant, were absolutely amazing. They arrived early, were flexible and really accommodating to our vision. They also really hustled! They took advantage of every spare moment they had to get additional photos, and kept us on schedule super tightly. They even carried around things like bottles of water for me (the bride) as we took lots of photos in the hot upper floor of the venue. Many guests also mentioned how beautifully the photos turned out. However, we did have an issue in which, due to an injury to the editor's hand, we did not receive our photos in the agreed-upon timeframe. Had we been informed of this delay ahead of time, we would not have had any issue just waiting a bit longer. The main concern was that we weren't alerted of this delay until after the initial deadline had passed. We did request a discount due to this, which they accommodated. And the photos did still turn out amazing!

Awarded Best of Zola
I feel so lucky to have found these amazing people! Heather and her incredible team feel like family to us, even though we only met a few months ago. They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day. I will never be able to forget what it felt like, thanks to these incredible people with unreal talent. I also cannot believe how easy it was to book her and for such a reasonable price! Booking Heather and her team was truly the best decision we could have made. I recommend them to anyone from all walks of life. You will be welcomed and taken care of like a friend or even family!

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
There's nothing I could say that could convey enough how much I love and appreciate everything Morgan has done for us. I seriously cannot recommend her enough!!! Morgan manages to capture the energy of a moment in a way that every time I look at my pictures, I'm right back in that moment - which is everything I asked for and more!! From the engagement pictures and bridals to our wedding pictures, I'm so in love with everything she's delivered. Neither my (new) husband nor I are super in to photo sessions, but Morgan manages to make you so comfortable it seriously just ends up coming naturally. So many of my wedding guests and family commented on how great she was at the wedding, and how nice and funny she was as well!!! Something that cannot go unsaid is that for every shoot, I got sneak peeks almost immediately after the shoot, and the full album like the next day!!! Even our wedding was delivered just a little over a week later, and as someone who has read one too many internet horror stories of lost wedding albums, this was a god send. And at the end of the wedding night she gave me the absolute cutest little album full of all of our film pictures!!! Which, like everything else that day, made me cry!!! I can definitely say that any opportunity we get for pictures in the future - we'll be using Morgan!! The kindest soul, and so amazing at what she does!! I think I've told her directly about 3000 times, but I have to say it again - she is the absolute best!!!

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
I can’t say enough amazing things about Jessie! She was our photographer for our engagement photos, and I feel like I struck gold finding her on Instagram. After looking through A LOT of photographers, I knew I was being super picky—I have a love for photography and had a very specific vision in mind. Jessie absolutely brought that vision to life! The gallery she delivered looked like my Pinterest board… but even better! Her editing style, eye for detail, and ability to capture genuine moments blew us away. She made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire shoot as well. She is down to earth, fun, and gave the perfect amount of guidance while still keeping everything natural and relaxed - we needed the guidance ;) She also let us bring our dogs, which meant so much to us, and she captured the most adorable photos of them that I am so thankful for! Jessie took so many beautiful photos and she really captured us. We’re so grateful for her talent and energy, and we loved working with her so much that we’ve asked her (and her husband!) to shoot our wedding in Italy. Jessie, thank you for everything—we can’t wait for round two, but this time in ITALY!

Our small team of award-winning photographers and videographers celebrate the candid, authentic beauty of your day. Because when you look back on your album you should remember the fun, easy, imperfect, personal moments that make you, you -- not how long you had to pose.

If I could give 10 stars I would! Adam and his team were incredibly professional, and captured our wedding beautifully. Every single shot we received was edited and GORGEOUS. The videos we received? Made us laugh, made us cry. It was the exact documentary we were looking to have - we wanted a very specific style and that’s what he delivered. We went with Adam & his team because his photos had the look we were going for, a very vibrant and fun vibe. I hopped on a call with him before booking to ask questions and discuss, right away I knew we wanted to go with him. Day of the wedding, his team was earlier than expected, and took it upon themselves to ensure they had everything they needed, and I wanted. I didn’t have a wedding planner, and I’m so happy we had a photo/video vendor that was able to be confident, independent, and ensure we were happy with what we were getting - without overstepping on our special day. As for the delivery of the photos and video, earlier than expected! Adam and his team have the best eye for detail, I’m extremely satisfied and would recommend him and his team to anyone!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Well I think I’ve watched my wedding video about 50 times the day I received it. Tyler is blessed with a natural ability to capture the most beautiful and authentic version of you on your special day. If we had to share one thing about Tyler, it's that he goes above and beyond. His attitude was amazing all day, and he was so incredibly attentive to our needs. I’m an awkward person, but Tyler makes you feel like you’re just another one of his friends, which helped me to relax and for him to capture amazing portraits. Before the wedding day, I also felt like he was one of our only vendors that truly took the time to assess our vision. He spent plenty of time making sure I was confident we would have THE pictures ;). 2 words: HIRE HIM!

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time! I consider my style to be way more candid, as I truly adore capturing an authentic experience that is almost tangible to the person viewing the photo. I want the viewer to feel the emotion and as if they were there with us right back in that moment. I love realness of a perfect candid shot…my goal—especially with couples—is to get to the heart of their connection and connect with my couples, as well, to truly make them feel comfortable in front of the lens so that we can get to those authentic magic shots!

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!!

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

Shooting with them literally feels like hanging with your best friends. They were an absolute joy from start to finish, but it was Sharayah’s attention to detail and artistic eye that impressed me above all else. It was inspiring to feel like we were all creating art together, and the photos don’t lie! Our engagement shoot went viral on Instagram, and we got hundreds of comments saying, “these are literally the best engagement photos I’ve ever seen.” I too, agree with that sentiment, but I have to give credit to Hereafter’s vision and execution because they NAILED it. As a team, they’re both extremely communicative and organized, professional yet relaxed in the way they interacted with us and our guests. No one has ever made me feel so comfortable in front of a camera. Additionally, their digital color grading is meticulously adjusted to match 35mm film with incredibly accuracy. They perfectly captured the magic of our special day. We booked them for the whole package - engagement shoot, wedding photos, and wedding video with super 8 film. Their understanding of my vision was remarkable…Hereafter managed to romanticize every single detail in a profound way. The photos are so special to us because each one feels like a standalone piece of art. They went above and beyond for us in every capacity, even going so far as to drive me to the venue on my wedding day when things ran late! We cannot recommend Hereafter Films highly enough. Book them immediately! I promise you, they are worth every single penny and more.

I'm a reportage-style wedding photographer, documenting all the in-between moments that make up the authentic story of your wedding day.

My couples crave a natural, photojournalistic take that tell the real story of their day, not just pretty, perfect photos. Because your wedding day is not a photo shoot.

From the moment we first spoke with Rae, we knew we had found our perfect wedding photographer. Rae's personable, kind, and knowledgeable communication style immediately put us at ease, even though I was feeling indecisive and terrified throughout the whole planning process. Rae took the time to truly understand what my husband and I wanted, and helped us create a timeline that was as relaxed as we had hoped. On our wedding day, Rae's compassionate and fun presence made it easy for us to forget the camera was even there, allowing her to capture the most beautiful, richly colored, and candid moments. The final photos were amazingly edited, showcasing the inclusive way Rae documented our special day. We are thrilled with the results and are so grateful to have had Rae as part of our wedding journey.

For the little girls, just as I once was, sitting on the carpet flipping through their grandma's and mothers wedding photos and dreaming of a love story such as theirs. I take a documentary meet's editorial approach. Leaving space for emotions to evolve when the moment calls and stepping in to gently guide when needed. No two weddings should ever look like they could belong to anyone but the couple themselves and I stand by that. This truly is my creative passion.

TLDR: I could not have picked a better photographer and I truly believe that Annie would be perfect for absolutely anyone. Her energy is infectious in a way that really brings up your excitement levels but also keeps your anxiety down. My husband is very introverted and was really worried about photos, but she kept him comfortable and in his element in a way I truly don’t believe anyone else would have. As for myself, I felt beautiful and gorgeous the entire time because of her and her partner. For the work she did and the amount of effort she puts into our photos, I believe her prices are incredibly fair. If anything, she’s undercutting herself. I will absolutely be recommending Annie to anyone and everyone. Now for the longer part of the review! We got married on May 30th, 2024 and we were doing our wedding a little differently. Instead of doing private vows or doing our vows at the ceremony, we did our vows at our rehearsal dinner. That is also when we allowed friends and family to come up and say something. The reason we did this route is because my husband is introverted and not a public speaker while I am the complete opposite. He also really wanted to see my walk down the aisle as our first look instead of a private look. Me, on the other hand, wanted at least our family and close friends to witness our vows. So we compromised! On top of it being two separate days, I was very adamant that I wanted two photographers along with wanting to capture the little things, such as my grandparents holding hands or our friends doing silly things at a table. I don’t mind staged photos, but I really wanted more natural focused shots. It was surprisingly difficult to find someone who was able to both days and within our price range. When we stumbled upon Annie, it felt like fate. She was so easy to figure things out with. Instead of an engagement photo session, she was happy to do our rehearsal dinner instead. She was there for any questions I had and the forms she had us fill out were super detailed! It really helped getting our thoughts together and deciding what was most important for our wedding. The day before the wedding, she vibed so well with everyone at the rehearsal dinner. She even got perfect photos of our dogs, who are honestly like our children. The day of the wedding, Annie and her second photographer (who I’ve completely blanked on the name, my fault for taking so long to write a review!) were amazing. Every single one of our friends had compliments for them and just LOVED their energy. Annie kept me calm and collected while the second was fully invested in my husband. I don’t think the wedding would have gone as smoothly without those two. The photos I received back? Better than I could ever dream of. Truly. They got beautiful shots of my grandparents dancing, my dad talking to one of his nephews, his mom talking with his brother. Just candid shots that looked real and natural. I am unbelievably so happy with Annie and the work she put in for us. Photographs are one of the most important things for me at our wedding and she truly blew it out of the park.We thank her for all her work from the bottom of our hearts and will always cherish the memories she gave us.

Indigo Media was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From our very first interaction, their communication style was easy, fun, professional and incredibly helpful. They had a great eye for beautiful, breathtaking shots and their work was truly professional quality - yet still affordable. On the day of our wedding, they helped direct us and our wedding party as needed, with poses ready to go. Overall, Indigo Media was a joy to work with, and we couldn't be happier with the gorgeous photos that now capture our special day.

I’m Monica Cassell, and I’m on a mission to ensure your photos are really damn good. When you choose me as your photographer, you’re not just choosing another vendor who’ll punch in and punch out. Hell no. You’re choosing a comprehensive client experience. I prioritize spending time with you, getting to know you individually and as a couple, and serving you in this season through engagement photos, recommendations, and anything else you might need. By the time you run through the sparkler tunnel to your getaway car, we’ll be so close you might just ask me to come with you (JK, unless it’s Disneyworld).

What can I say? Monica is a breathe or fresh air in the photography industry. She will absolutely nail your ideas and photos and take them to the.next level. She is fun and passionate and kind, I can’t recommend her enough. We will love our Disney photos forever.

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!
