I can't say enough about how great our experience with Sound Originals and our photographers, Taylor and Doug, was. They felt like long-time friends who were taking photos for us! We absolutely love how our photos turned out and would consider them if we ever needed professional photos again. I am happy with the number of photos they took of us and how comfortable they made us both feel. 10/10

I've had a camera in my hand since I was a kid. My mom was a wedding photographer also. I spend my days taking photos because it inspires me and fills me with joy. To me, there is nothing better than capturing a beautiful moment. I have photographed weddings all over the US TX, NY and the Hudson Valley, the East Coast, as well as in Europe, the Caribbean, & Hawaii. A few more things about me… I love the ocean, traveling, exploring, hiking, dancing, the change of seasons, the outdoors, sunrises, sunsets, walking without a destination, that few minutes of magical golden light before the sun sets, life… and telling stories with photographs.

Kim truly is a gem! Not only is she incredibly talented, she has perfect energy, making everyone feel comfortable and confident. My whole family loved her! We have used Kim for both our engagement shoot and wedding day. She is very attentive, reliable, professional, and you can tell she really is passionate about her work. She goes above and beyond. Our love was so beautifully captured and I am so grateful for her gifts. 100% recommend!

Morgan Elise Photography 

5.0

Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

My name is Morgan Elise, and I have had a camera in my hand since I was around nine years old. I specialize as a storyteller & documentarian photographer. Nothing brings me more joy than capturing moments you don’t necessarily see… but I do. I am constantly looking for those quiet moments, genuine smiles, laughs, hugs, kisses, etc. I want to tell YOUR story as authentically as I can. My work has heavily been influenced by my intuition and empathic gifts, history, vogue, literature- mostly Jane Austen, and poetry. Before every session, I create a story of poses for each client, carefully curated for each person’s personal story.

Awarded Best of Zola
I saw Morgan’s work online and loved it, so she flew to Seattle to shoot our wedding. Without a doubt, one of our best wedding decisions! She was so communicative, organized, and a fun/comforting presence when we were so stressed. Neither of us are good in front of a camera, and her directions helped us out so much! We love our photos so much, and she got them back to us sooo fast! Talking a huge preview within a day and a huge gallery within a week. She is the best!

My name is Diana and I'm a photographer based out of Austin, Texas. I'm originally from Atlanta but I live in Austin, Texas with my favorite human Mark, my little sweet baby Tom, and my dog Moonpie. If you're looking for an open, easy, and stress-free experience, get in touch.

Awarded Best of Zola
Diana is the BEST! Neither my fiance nor I had great photos from our first wedding. So, after we got engaged and hired our wedding planner, I could not stress enough how important it was for us to hire the right photographer for our big day. Diana Ascarrunz was on the short list recommended to us by our wedding planner. After looking through at her website, I *knew* she was the perfect photographer for us and our wedding. I loved that her portfolio wasn’t filled with cis het couples that look like they all just stepped out of Vogue. These were real, beautiful, everyday couples from all walks of life. That was very important to me. When we got our ‘sneak peek’ photos back a few days after our wedding, I cried looking at them. She captured us and our love so beautifully. She was so easy to work with, crazy talented, professional, has an eye for detail and made me feel calm on our big day. She also did our engagement photos, which turned out equally as amazing, and we will absolutely use her again in the future for our family photos!

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.

Amazing, outstanding, and very professional. Allie was very good at providing affordable options and the quality of the photos was great! Please utilize Allie/HGP for your photography needs. She is sweet, punctual, personable, and her work is absolutely amazing!

We found Heather on The Knot but knew immediately that she had worked on 2 prior weddings we attended. She did our engagement photos as well and even though the weather wasn’t the best, she captured some really beautiful shots of us. We had a big multi lingual family she had to direct at our wedding and she did such a great job!! Heathers team knows how to work to get stuff done and she was an important collaborator in creating our run of show. When random issues occurred like a staff cutting themselves before cake cutting pics, Heather jumped into action to help us r-stage the shot. We had a lot of fun & loved working with her! Our photos are absolutely stunning!

My name is Mary, a documentary wedding photographer based in Austin and Los Angeles. Wrenn is a family name: we are a line of artists, makers, and crafters. We are also a bunch of weirdo, crazy goofballs who love to be silly and have fun! I'm passionate for capturing the glorious beauty of your love story on film and digital mediums.

I'm Nicole, an intimate wedding, destination, and elopement photographer passionate about capturing your story, personality, and vision. I hate productions and going through the motions. I invest in you and capture your day true to you!

You spend your entire wedding day with your photographer, and Nicole is who you want on your team on your big day. I had seen Nicole in action at a friend’s wedding, so when it came time to hire for my own, Nicole was my first and only call. She was communicative, organized, and an overall joy to work with. She stayed in close contact with my planner when we changed venues 3 weeks before the wedding, visited the site beforehand, and came with lots of ideas. She nailed my vision from start to finish. Her assistant was also a pleasure to work with & kept our rowdy group wrangled & on time. 10/10 would recommend!

We'll be fast friends before you know it. Your wedding season can be so busy - we take the time to capture the moments you'll want to look back on. Trust we will honor your vision and make you feel like YOU on your big day.

McKenzie captured the vibe of our wedding absolutely perfectly. She photographed both our welcome event and our wedding day, and it felt natural to have her as a part of our group. We had an intimate backyard wedding, and McKenzie corralled folks into the perfect photo groupings without it feeling pushy. The photos all have a romantic feel about them, and looking back at them I get all the same energy that I felt the moment they were taken. I'm so happy she was there to capture our special day, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone to capture their special moments.

Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $950

With over 30+ years in the industry, photography is not only my passion but a lifestyle, is all I ever wanted to be. I love Jesus! I love RV traveling, hiking, the beach and dancing! Wedding and portrait photography are my thing, capturing the brides with beautiful natural light coming through a window, a door, wherever the sun leaks is what I truly love. My photojournalistic and fine art photography styles result in stunning true to life moments, and portraits that are not "posed", but rather "directed", in a natural way that is true to who you are.

I can not say enough good things about Taylor!! She goes above and beyond to make sure your photos are outstanding for your big day! She is extremely kind, professional and accommodating. The services she provides are second to none. The quality is high, the price is affordable. My husband and I felt so comfortable with her and she captured our moments perfectly! Taylor is the absolute best, her personality is amazing, she makes you laugh, she makes you feel good about yourself! She knows how to find the lighting and how to have you pose so it’s natural. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a photographer! She is by far the best! I would book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you again Taylor for all of your amazing work!! XOXO

Sam Hugh Photography

Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500

I’m a hopeless romantic that's in an international long-distance marriage for almost ten years. I really enjoy documenting weddings. It’s one giant Rubik's Cube of composing interesting images, telling family history, figuring out the optimal light, and just getting to know people. My passion is to keep pushing my art and create a timeless product you will still cherish 50 years from now. I want to create honest photos that capture the realness of your relationships. I want to do more than tell a story, I want to capture the feelings and emotions of the day. I want to capture your quirkiness, your happiness, and the quiet moments in between.

Sam was the perfect choice to capture the moments of our special day!!! Seriously!!! Sam went the extra mile to get to know us personally and really was cognizant of our personality and how to match it up with a photography style. Sam was extremely professional. Our wedding was very small and low key but did wonderfully capturing all the moments you look back on and feel that rush of happiness. I would strongly urge anyone looking for a photographer for a wedding or any event to use Sam!

For those playfully and deeply in love! Color and Beam provides artful film and digital hybrid wedding and elopement photography based in Southern California and Texas, available for travel. I’m a storyteller, but the picture book kind. I usually skip the words and pore over the pictures. I geek out over colors, light, and movement, so it makes a lot of sense that photography is where I’ve landed.

Haley shot our engagement photos and wedding ceremony/reception and I can say without question that she transformed already special days into priceless memories. She is a calm, cool, collected presence to work with and put us both at ease while shooting. She captured our wedding expertly and her photos are some of my all-time favorites. By shooting on film and using those colors as a basis, I know that our wedding album will have that timeless quality for the next ten, twenty, and 50 years. She does not chase trends that will end up dating your photos in a few years. You can expect quality and stunning results. Book Haley!

Artistically documenting your genuine moments! I started this business over six years ago with humble intentions. The nostalgia I felt for my own personal documented memories was something I wanted to share with others. Your story and its uniqueness matter, which is why I capture your moments with creativity and intentionality. I value authentic connection which allows those I photograph to truly be themselves in front of the camera. I want to bring your vision to life so you can preserve it for a lifetime.

If you're in the market for a photographer to capture all of your big life moments, look no further. Robyn was a true blessing all around. We booked her for our engagement photos, my bridals, and the best day of our lives, our wedding. I never thought someone could capture our love so effortlessly, but she went above and beyond. Not only did we get pictures we will cherish for years to come, but we also gained a friend throughout the process. She made us laugh, kept things light and had some of the best ideas that made the for the best pictures. I can NOT wait to hire her again for future sessions. Thank you so much Robyn for being an amazing person and an even more amazing photographer :)

From our first meeting, the team at Photography By Estefana was amazing, personable, and incredibly responsive. Their communication throughout the entire process was top-notch, and they made us feel comfortable and at ease every step of the way. The quality of their work is simply gorgeous - the photos and videos are beautifully edited and they captured exactly what we wanted for our special day.

Wedding photography is so much more than snapping a few frames. It's about being a part of the experience, making connections, and meeting new people. Whether it's laughter, joy, or romance, there is nothing better than being able to show what a couple's love is all about through images. I care about the moments first and foremost. Let's create some magic, make memories, and have an experience that you won't soon forget!

John is such a pleasure on a wedding day. Very clear, direct and creative instruction to the couple along with an easy going attitude toward other vendors. I love his vibrant colors and rich tones. John is a master of not only natural light but off camera flashes which is a rare skill these days. Notice how great his reception photos look! Some photographers prefer to not even post their reception photos because they pale in comparison to the images they are able to get in daylight. John on the other hand is able to capture stunning, creative and well lit shots from beginning to end.

Im Chris, a photographer living in Austin Texas. I think connection between people, whether they be strangers, best friends, or loved ones, is what this is all about. I think every moment can be captured in a beautiful way.

Awarded Best of Zola
Chris is easy-going and relaxing to work with right from the jump. His creative eye always found a way to incorporate our surroundings yet he always was able to capture a natural expression. We had a few different locations for our engagement shoot and in each location, he was able to find something unique, experimented with different framing, but was always able to keep us at ease in front of a camera. Overall he made the day really special and we left with a memorable set of images that we see every day on our walls! It was great working with him and I'll jump at any chance to do it again. Highly recommend!

I’m Marisa. A cheeseburger lovin' native Texan. A little lady who will capture wonderful moments for you (on my tip toes 90% of the time) and will smile at you a lot in hopes that it will make you smile too. :)

Marisa was the absolute best person we worked with for our wedding. She is professional, communicative, kind, friendly, organized, and prompt. From our initial message reaching out to her to our final pictures post-wedding and all of the in-between with engagement and bridal photos, she is without a doubt our favorite wedding vendor. She’s fun to work with during and outside of photos. During, she has a very calm demeanor of a true professional who’s seen it all and is unfazed by the chaos that is wrangling family for photos. She also made our engagement and bridal photo shoot super fun. Outside, she communicates quickly and kindly and was well organized. She was so organized that if she had told us she did wedding coordination, we would have paid her on the spot. I cannot say enough good things about her and I’m confident we’ve found our go-to photographer for as long as she’ll have us.

I'm a wedding and elopement photographer that loves to capture all the feelings you least expect - the laughs you don't anticipate and the tears (the good kind) you didn't see coming. I create imagery that doesn't just bring you back to a moment, but to an exact feeling. I'm here to document your story exactly as you live it.

We found Jessica through our venue’s Instagram and never looked back. She’s got an editorial eye and was perfect for our shared vision of our wedding photos. So much so that we ended up broadening our contract to include engagement photos and a separate ceremony from the big day. Jessica not only took beautiful photos on all three occasions, but really worked with us to ensure we were comfortable and getting the shots we really wanted. If you’re looking for a local photog, we couldn’t recommend her enough. And, if you’re able to fly her out for out-of-town projects, she’s just as flexible! Thank you Jessica!
