Hi there, My name is Winnie and I truly love being a wedding photographer. I love all things wine, two-stepping, sleeping and annoying my sweet husband. If I am not editing I am cuddling my cats and watching the latest Netflix show. I'm goofy, with a side of wild and calm. We will laugh a lot, dancing at your wedding and hype you up because it’s your day and you deserve the best experience EVER.

“When it came to my wedding it was imperative that I connected with my photographer who was going to capture the happiest day of my life. I had talked to about 7 photographers in my planning process and yeah their work was great but none gave me the confidence to hire and commit. Well then I met Winnie, and she was the only person who took the time to want to meet me and get to know us. She immediately scheduled a call and just wanted to listen. She gave me the butterflies I needed and I knew she was the one I needed with me on my special day. On top of that, her work was impeccable and the exact style I wanted. I can’t say enough great things about Winnie and how she came to deliver. I’m obsessed with my photos and she was also my emotional support on my wedding day. My entire family loves her and her energy. It’s something about her authenticity and kindness that makes you feel confident confident about her executing the goal. I highly recommend her and suggest you check out her phenomenal work. Love you Winnie!!!!

Hi there! My name is Nathan and I've been doing wedding and portrait photography for 17 years. Throughout that time I've had the honor of capturing moments that has brought both tears and laughter. It has been, and continues to be, one of my greatest pleasures to witness the love between couples.

  • Serves Athens, TX

Your wedding isn’t just an event—it’s a story, a feeling, a collection of fleeting moments that deserve to be preserved with artistry and intention. I specialize in capturing weddings with a refined documentary-meets-editorial approach, blending quiet, unscripted moments with timeless, emotive storytelling. I take on a limited number of weddings per year, ensuring every couple receives an immersive, personalized experience. My work is for those who value photography not just as documentation but as an heirloom—something that will outlive the day itself.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

Hi there!! I'm Morgan, and I'm SO glad you're here! I'm a destination digital and film wedding photographer based out of Texas. I would describe my photography style as elegant and documentary. My goal through my business is to capture your unique story through a brand that celebrates true love.​ I am here to capture your big milestones and all the happy little moments in-between. I travel worldwide, and even offer BIG discounts for certain "bucket list" destinations! I would love to chat more with you to see if your wedding would qualify for my discounted pricing!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first spoke with Morgan and her team at Morgan Made Photos, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication style was easily understandable and patient, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work and the value they provided was much more than we expected - the photos they captured of our special day are truly beautiful. Both photographers were so sweet and stayed past their scheduled hours to capture our speeches, going above and beyond to make sure they documented all the love and joy of our wedding. I was initially on the fence about hiring a professional photographer due to the cost, but Morgan and her team made it worth every penny. I don't regret a single thing about working with them, and I would recommend Morgan Made Photos to anyone looking for an elegant and professional photography experience for their wedding. Hiring them was hands down the best decision I made for our big day.

We bring a fun, fresh and modern storytelling vibe to your wedding images and film and we are so stoked you found us!

Awarded Best of Zola
I did SO much research trying to find the right photo + video team to capture our elopement ceremony and separate reception event... I scoured wedding websites and social medias galore until we found them and fell in love with their work. We booked with Kris and Allison as one of our first vendors, (right at the beginning of all the COVID craziness) making sure that no matter what happened, we had the best team to capture everything. We wanted photos that felt “real”- natural editing, no awkwardly staged posing, and a timeless style that felt personal and unique, which could best showcase our love and who we are as a couple... We put complete trust in them, and WOW did they deliver!! After we did an engagement session with Allison and got our photos back, we were blown away! We knew our wedding gallery was going to be nothing short of epic. (Seriously, EPIC is even an understatement!) We’re definitely not “naturals,” and generally very uncomfortable in front of a camera, but she makes you feel so at ease, is patient, funny, and helpful with giving instructions to make you look and feel your best! Kris is so stealthy... so kind, super chill and easy to talk to, while sneakily capturing ALL the best shots without you ever even noticing! Our video ended up all pieced together in such a thoughtful and creative way that made us cry- watching it brings back all of the emotions so vividly! And even with our events happening on two different days, it all flowed together so flawlessly! Our photos and video felt so unique to us, and their detail and creative eye is excellent. On top of that, their personalities are just as great (I mean, I feel like having a cute married photo/video couple is just all around good wedding day vibes...), and after the reception so many guests commented on how cool and personable they were, while still being professional and never “in the way.” They fit right in at our intimate setting, and you can tell they just love “love” and their craft. To put it plainly, they really are just THAT good. Our wedding experience was enhanced x10000 because of them, and knowing that we’ll have the most beautiful photos to share for years and years is absolutely priceless. You only get one magical day, and when it’s over all you’ll have are the great memories and (hopefully, if you hire these guys) phenomenal photos + video! There are no words to describe how eternally grateful we are to have had them be a part of our “best day ever.” Or how well they were able to document all the details and moments of joy, love, and pure happiness between us and all our friends/family! I’d go on, but check out their work because it speaks for itself (seriously, I’m still obsessed with their Instagram feed after the fact!) I always knew the power of a great photo + video team, but the Silverbears are next level, 5 star, top shelf, A-Team, above and beyond, and truly remarkable. The best in the game.

Breana Marie Photography

  • Serves Athens, TX

The greatest gift we have ever received is time. I photograph as much of life as I can in order to preserve each of those moments as they once were. Time goes by so fast and sometimes we forget the small things, I started taking pictures because I want to be able to relive those wonderful moments as much as I could. I am learning new tricks of trade every day and experimenting with all the wonderful opportunities I am given. I travel all over the country to capture these cherished moments and love every second of it. Photography for me is a love and joy that if given the chance I can give those same moments back to you.

Bre is hands down the best wedding photographer! She is extremely professional in her work, but also makes the entire process so fun! I have had participated in many weddings (as well as my own) with Breana as the photographer and each one has been such an amazing experience! I look back on my wedding photos, bridals and engagement pictures every day and I am still in awe at how beautifully she captured each memory for us!

I have been a professional photographer for just over nine years. I am also the mother of a handful of 9-year-old boys and an adorable little girl! I am extremely lucky that my husband Kody shares my enthusiasm for photography and he joins me as needed for a second shooter or videographer! Photography has been my passion since I was young, and I am humbled every day to be able to pursue this as my career. I love to shoot weddings, and that is my main focus. There is nothing more special than being a part of so many special events over the years for couples and families!

Hey new friends! We’re Sam + Kyle elopement photographers splitting our time between the PNW and the SW in our RV. It takes a whole lot of badassery to make the decision to elope and we are very into that kind of energy. We believe in making memories and images that capture all of the big feelings, and the in-between moments that you want to relive over and over again. You know, the kind of photos that hang on your wall and make ya smile real big because you remember exactly how you felt in that moment. We are so glad that you’re here and can’t wait to run wild with you.

I can't say enough good things about Kyle and Sam. My wife, who is trans, and I really wanted to find someone who would be sensitive and respectful of our unique relationship and our non unique wedding(I'm Native American and Irish and so we had those elements in our wedding). Hit the jackpot! While they let us know up front that they hadn't worked with a trans couple before they also let us know that they firmly believe that love is love and they just want to capture our happiness and our day for us. They made my wife feel comfortable which is saying a lot since she had just come out as trans a couple months ago and she absolutely hated photos. They make a great team with Sam doing most of the communication and Kyle taking the lead on the photos(they both shot photos). Sam is a bundle of energy that has one focus-making things go smoothly and making sure you're happy. Kyle has an artistic point of view that clearly comes across in their finished products of being superb. They were great at dealing with last minute snafu's and helping me navigate everything. Their photos are absolutely brilliant and we could not be more happy with them. In fact, we are planning on hiring them again for our one year anniversary when we invite our family and friends since we didn't have a big wedding due to covid. While some people will be a bit concerned about their price, they absolutely are worth every single penny. Their professionalism, their personalities, and their work simply can't be matched. Thank you Sam and Kyle!
