Couldn't be happier with this vendor. They did our engagement shoot as well and all of our photos have been stunning. Not only are they responsive and friendly, our photography & videography team went above and beyond for us. My husband and I can get a little shy and awkward in front of the camera having to pose so it was nice to have someone give us great direction and posing tips.

Erica Bonorden Photography

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Wharton, TX

I am Erica and photography is my passion. It makes me happy that you are here reading this! My photography journey started not too long ago when I was dabbling in product photography for some local jewelers. I had taken some photos of engagement rings by themselves but it didn’t really hit me until I started working with models! From then on I realized I really enjoyed photographing people and connecting with them. Shortly after this revelation, my good friend asked me to take her engagement photos and the rest is history! Ever since I have been photographing every moment I can for my clients!

Awarded Best of Zola
Erica was so wonderful to work with. She took the most beautiful photos of our engagement and wedding. I absolutely treasure the shots I have. I'm really camera shy and wedding planning was incredibly stressful, so I really appreciate how flexible and patient Erica was. We also got to meet Tom, her second shooter, who was so kind and helpful. They are so great to work with!

I'm JoAnn, but you can call me your new best friend I'm a couples photographer, a wife, and a mama, from Houston, Tx. I started photography during the pandemic, I had recently had my son and I wasn't able to have any photos taken of him due to quarantine lockdown so I figured I'd make them myself. Little did I know I'd make a business out of it. So now here I am doing this thing I'm so passionate about all the while being able to capture these milestones for my family. What I absolutely love is going on adventures with awesome couples and sharing their incredible journey all while being able to seize the moment for them to treasure forever.

JoAnn Marie Photography was a delight to work with for our wedding day and beyond. Their communication style is professional, fast, and easy, which made the entire process a breeze. The quality of their work is truly beautiful, with an exceptional attention to detail that captured stunning photos we can look back on forever. JoAnn was there to guide us through poses and help us feel comfortable, ensuring we have memories from our special day that make us feel as if we are right back in that moment. We have used JoAnn Marie Photography for our wedding, a recent boudoir session, and will continue to use them for all our family photos - her energy and talent are unmatched!

Kelly Urban Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Wharton, TX

Hey! I'm Kelly and I would love to sing, dance and goof around with you at your wedding. I've been a wedding photographer for over 10 years and absolutely LOVE what I do. Getting couples to laugh and genuinely smile in photos is my specialty!

We absolutely loved working with Kelly Urban Photography! From the moment we connected, Kelly was incredibly organized, responsive, and easy to talk to an absolute professional with a creative soul. We instantly bonded over our shared love of World of Warcraft, especially since many of our guildies were at the wedding and we were meeting several of them in person for the first time! It made the entire experience even more fun and meaningful. Kelly went above and beyond during our engagement shoot—trekking out to my truck yard, embracing the rain, and capturing some of the most unique and beautiful photos we've ever seen. Her creativity and ability to find beauty in unexpected places is unmatched. On the wedding day, she was perfectly on time, super efficient, and worked effortlessly with all our different friend and family groups. She made even the shyest guests feel at ease with her natural, friendly conversation turning what could have been awkward moments into genuine smiles and laughter. We’re so grateful to have had Kelly be a part of our day and already can’t wait to work with her again for future family shoots. She’s not just an incredible photographer, but a wonderful person to have by your side on such a special day. Highly, highly recommend!

Batchelor Bliss Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Wharton, TX

I'm a family photographer based in the Gulf Coast region of Texas. I specialize in all things family photography and beyond, from engagements all the way to newborns I'm your gal. In addition to being a photographer I am also titled as Christian, Wife, Mother, and Friend. I'm an open book, I love to keep it real. I am every bit of a "go with the flow" type of person, yet I still know how to take charge in certain settings like a wedding. If any of that sounded good to you, I just might be the photographer for you.

I always overthink before taking photos, I feel like I won’t relax enough and look to stiff or ‘fake’ but Whittnie immediately created a warm welcoming environment. She gave us fun tips and advice all while maintaining a professional demeanor. There were no awkward moments and my nerves were instantly gone. Our photos turned out better than I ever could have expected. She has an amazing ability to catch the perfect lighting and edit the photos just enough to ensure we still look like us. I honestly can’t wait to have her photograph future moments for us.

Boettcher Films 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Wharton, TX

Boettcher Films was made in an attempt to slow down and simplify. Using only film formats, my husband and I have been documenting weddings on Super8 and 35mm since 2020. We recently have created photo + video packages for those who crave untraditional film coverage of their wedding day. My family and I are nestled in a small farming community west of Houston, Texas. Our desire for slow intentional living has fostered not only our wedding inspiration, but also how we do life. You will find these themes woven throughout our work.

When searching for a photo/videographer we wanted someone who shoots film, has a laid back documentary style, and could make us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Boettcher films checked all of these boxes and then exceeded expectations! From our first communication I sensed Gracie’s warmth and passion for what she does. We had an engagement shoot before our big day, my husband and I were super nervous about being photographed, but Gracie and Jonathan made it feel like we were just hanging out and getting to know each other. The results speak for themselves, it really captured our love in a way I didn’t know was possible. I will cherish those photos forever! Wedding day was just the same, my friends and family all raved about how awesome they are. We haven’t seen wedding photos yet but we just know they’ll be beautiful!

Jessie Schultz Photography

  • Serves Wharton, TX

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
WHEW okay first, I just need to say, Jessie and Dylan are wonderful. They are incredible photographers and just overall wonderful people. My husband (Dj) and I eloped in Colorado in October 2024, just the two of us. Our families wanted to celebrate, so we decided to go ahead and host a reception, and we landed on April 2025. My husband and I live in New Braunfels, so we decided to host the reception in NB. A quick google search brought me to Jessie's page, and I immediately fell in love. I loved her work, and I loved the overall vibe she brought through her website. I contacted her and got a super quick response - quick communication is everything! I was slightly worried before booking because our situation was different than the "traditional" weddings, and I wasn't sure how it would be received. However, our first call went so smoothly. She made me feel so at ease with our non-traditional event, and she was on board immediately. We booked right away! Communication was 10/10 throughout the entire process. We knew exactly what she and Dylan needed from us, and we could easily communicate what we were looking for from them. The day of our reception was absolutely seamless. Jessie and Dylan are like the two friends you'd invite to your wedding as guest anyway! They are so down to earth and go with the flow. They made both Dj and I feel like we were the stars of the show but also neverrrrr made us feel uncomfortable. By the end of the night, they both felt like old friends we had known forever. They kept the entire shoot so playful, and we were laughing and cracking jokes all night. They are so creative, and their photography is truly art. They are not your traditional boring pose kind of photography. They capture the true fun, candid moments, which is exactly what we were looking for. We have been obsessing over our gallery since they completed it (which I haven't even mentioned yet was delivered SO quickly). I have visions of creating a gallery wall for our living room but haven't pulled the trigger yet because I legit cannot pick which ones I want because they are all THAT GOOD! Hopefully this review, and all of the other 5 star reviews, speak for themselves. If you are looking for photographers that listen to you, captures the candid, raw, fun moments of your day, and ones that will become your friend (it's true - we still chat, even months after our reception!!) - book with Jessie and Dylan! You absolutely won't regret it :)

Hi, I'm Emily - a journalism major drop-out turned wedding photographer that loves all things editorial and story telling.

Canyon & Pine: Wedding Photography + Films 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,100
  • Serves Wharton, TX

Canyon & Pine is a wedding photography and videography service founded by married couple James and Emma. With a background in capturing weddings since 2013, they have developed a seamless synergy that allows them to deliver exceptional results. Their approach is characterized by getting to know the couples they work with, understanding their stories, and translating those narratives into authentic and timeless images and videos. They prioritize creating a comfortable and safe space for all couples, supporting love in all its forms, and ensuring that every wedding day feels uniquely personal and true to the couple's identity.

Where do I even begin? Hiring Emma (and the Canyon & Pine team) was, without question, one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the first message, Emma made us feel seen, understood, and genuinely cared for—not just as clients, but as people. Her warmth, clarity, and professionalism stood out right away. She was never pushy or salesy—just honest, open, and full of heart. You can feel how much she loves what she does, and that passion shines through every step of the way. Planning with her was such a gift. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, asked thoughtful questions, and helped build a timeline that felt intentional and realistic. We had no idea how much a great photographer could shape the rhythm of the day, but Emma guided us with total ease. She helped us make decisions we didn’t even know we needed to make—like the best time for a first look or how to slip away for sunset portraits without missing the dance floor. Every call and email left us feeling more prepared and genuinely excited. She was organized without being rigid, confident without being controlling, and always a joy to talk to. Her communication was flawless—fast responses, clear expectations, and tons of insight from someone who truly knows weddings inside and out. On the day itself, she was pure magic. She showed up calm, ready, and creative. She struck this beautiful balance between leading and stepping back—giving just enough direction to help us feel confident in front of the camera (and we are not camera people), while still letting real, candid moments unfold. Nothing felt forced. Just natural and authentic and beautifully captured. There’s a steadiness to her presence that put everyone at ease—not just us, but our families, wedding party, and even the more chaotic guests. She got beautiful portraits of our parents, caught blink-and-you-miss-it moments with our friends, and wrangled our huge, goofy bridal party without breaking a sweat. Her team was just as wonderful—kind, professional, totally in sync. You can tell they’re not just skilled, but genuinely care. And then the gallery arrived. I’m not exaggerating—we screamed. Every photo was stunning—true to color, thoughtfully composed, and full of emotion. We saw ourselves in these photos in a way we never have before. They weren’t overly trendy or filtered. They were timeless, honest, vibrant, and full of life. You could feel the intention behind each frame—the lighting, the angles, the storytelling. She delivered everything with care and artistry, and the gallery was so easy to navigate and share. People haven’t stopped talking about our photos. We’ve had so many guests tell us they’re some of the best they’ve ever seen—and we agree. More than anything, Emma is just an incredible human. Kind, thoughtful, funny—she pours her heart into every wedding she takes on. We never felt like “just another client.” She treated our day with the same care and intention we did, and that made all the difference. If you’re on the fence—don’t be. Book her. Book her yesterday. You’re not just hiring someone to take pretty pictures. You’re bringing in someone who will support you, advocate for you, and create heirlooms you’ll treasure for the rest of your life. We’re forever grateful. Thank you, Emma.

I had the pleasure of working with Brownie Photography and Production as the photographers and videographers for my wedding this Summer. From the engagement session to the day of our wedding, Ashley made us feel very comfortable around cameras and posing, which me and my now husband are normally not very good at lol. She is a tremendous delight to work with so creative, so organized and so patient. We absolutely loved our wedding portraits and the way Ashley and her team were able to capture every special detail in our very special day. She made sure we were always on track with our timeline for the day and to accommodate our wants and needs. Our wedding video was also something that we were really impressed with and so obsessed with the golden hour drone shots courtesy of Logan!

We chose John to photograph our wedding this year but we decided to have a courthouse ceremony a year earlier. As soon as we scheduled our court date I emailed John ASAP and asked if he could capture our special day. As our day approached, John was professional, on time, and very communicative. He dealt with our large group like it was no problem at all and directed us into the right poses for the camera. We love the photos he took and will cherish them for years to come! If you are considering hiring John for your wedding or engagement photos…DO IT!! His photos are incredible, he’s an excellent communicator, incredibly organized, and pays incredible attention to every detail of your special day.
