We are Austin natives, but no longer live there and had to do a majority of the planning long-distance. None of this was a problem for Brett, and he definitely went out of his way to accommodate us whenever we were in town for a weekend of wedding planning. I really could not recommend him more, mainly because he's incredibly talented, down-to-earth (which is a key characteristic in a wedding photographer) and a genuinely kind, giving person. With him as our photographer, we felt as though we just had another friend around capturing the festivities. During the wedding and reception, he had such a great eye for noticing and capturing beautiful, organic moments. His assistant was also wonderful, funny and incredibly professional. Overall, we just felt so honored and overwhelmed by how Brett went out of his way to provide us with great memories and a great experience.

Brett was absolutely perfect as a wedding photographer. He was professional, timely, and went out…read moreof his way to capture every detail and help us facilitate our non-traditional wedding (elopement) in Austin. He had never done an elopement, but was incredibly flexible with our easy going planning style. He promptly responded to my inquiries, met us for drinks to discuss our event, and showed up on time, prepared, and (of course) eager to shoot our event. After our ceremony at hotel St. Cecilia, he even drove us around in his own car to take photos around town and had brought along iced bottled water to help keep us comfortable in the heat. We've both been in a ton of weddings, but Brett was the best photographer we've worked with- he matched our easy-going style, all while making sure he captured the details and moments that made our day "ours" and our event so special. With such a small event (Read: Bride, Groom, Officiant, Brett) we were worried it would be awkward spending a few extra hours taking pictures with just the three of us- but Brett is such a friendly guy it really just felt like we were hanging out with a friend. His demeanor and professionalism are complemented by the excellent images he captures and edits. We cannot recommend Brett enough for anyone needing photography services, and hope to be able to work with him again.

Brandon has the ability to make you feel incredibly comfortable in front of the lens, and the resulting photographs do not at all feel "posed" in a prom photo-like way because you are at ease throughout the process. During our engagement session and on our wedding day it felt more like we were hanging out with a good friend who just so happened to be skillfully snapping photos of us while we were chatting. He has a great eye and is not afraid to gently nudge you outside of your comfort zone to get a great shot, all the while respecting your tolerance levels for how far you're willing to trek through brush and up sandy hills, for example. I know that I will cherish my photos for years to come, and I can't thank Brandon enough for sharing his craft with the world and with my husband and I in particular. I highly recommend Brandon for your photography needs -- you absolutely will not regret it!

He knew how to keep us smiling and laughing which I'm sure made for some much more natural smiling from everyone. Even our guests loved him! He knew all the important posed shots to get, and moved through taking them quickly and painlessly so we could get to the reception and start having fun as soon as possible! Even when we took a little pause from the reception to grab some sunset shots of just the two of us, he was ready with a handful of fun poses to capture what I'm sure will be some amazing shots! Again, he got us through these shots quickly so we could get back in and enjoy our reception. We would highly recommend Austin for any of your photography needs and I hope that we can use him again for something in the future. Thank you, Austin!

Austin was an experienced photographer also, he came well prepared and really knew his stuffs, even my 2-year-old toddler was totally engaged and had fun. The photos came out exactly what we expected and some were even better, and his rates are very reasonable compared to the photographers nearby. I nightly recommend him if you are looking for an excellent photographer in Austin.

She…read moreimmediately understood our vision for a vintage Bollywood-inspired engagement shoot, and her creativity shone through in every shot. She has a knack for capturing our personalities and making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We're still obsessed with those photos! On our wedding week, Jamie was an absolute dream to work with. She showed up for our Mehndi, Haldi, Sangeet, Wedding and Reception back to back with the same energy throughout. She effortlessly blended into the festivities, catching candid moments that truly captured the essence of our cultural celebrations. She has extensive knowledge on the important moments to capture in an Indian wedding. She even offered to help fix little kinks in my hair and outfits, going above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Not even a week later we already had some preview photos from her to gush over with our family and friends. Zach was equally talented. He has a keen eye for detail and would somehow be everywhere the action was happening. We were particularly impressed with his patience and respect for our space, as well as his willingness to accommodate our requests. We are super excited to see the video he has been preparing especially after seeing the incredible photos they provided. Jamie and Zach worked seamlessly together, and their combined talents resulted in stunning visuals. We can't thank Jamie and Zach enough for their incredible work. They truly exceeded our expectations, and we wish they could be there to capture all our favorite moments in life!

Wes is hands down the best! We had him cover our wedding 10 years ago and recently on an…read moreanniversary shoot. He was easy to coordinate with and very responsive. The wedding photos turned out amazing, especially the action shots, but the icing on the cake for me was his overall friendly demeanor. I still remember how polite he was with the guests. On our recent anniversary shoot, he was still an awesome person to work with, but this time around I got to pay attention more to how skilled he is at his craft- directing us, spotting the light, interesting backdrops, everything. I can't recommend him enough for your wedding or engagement!

He had us pose in locations where we might not initially see that it's a cool photo, but when we see the end product, it's amazing! He did both our engagement photos and wedding. His black and white photos seriously make me want to cry (i.e. a happy cry). They remind me of Ansel Adams! I did a lot of research and met a few photographers before I found Wes. The other photographers seem very arrogant and shady. Wes is super humble and really down to earth and fun to work with. The best part is, he laughs at my stupid jokes. :) I would definitely ask Wes to do our future photography needs - perhaps an anniversary photo session.

Steve was the main photographer for a large social event-doing the main, prepaid portraits of…read moreapproximately 20 college students, and close to 100 young students aged 4-14. Also he was responsible for shots of each and every event leading up to the main "social". Almost 99% of the families involved had members photographed in past years so we knew what to expect. For myself, this was our 4th trip to the rodeo, in addition my third involvement with the older group. Pro:Steve is very nice, interested in pleasing everyone and knows his craft. Cons: kept saying he "always photographed X" and therefore he automatically knew what we expected. Results: for my individual shot, Steve took over 20 shots of my son (age 12) but only after 10 did *I* realize his shirt and bow tie were crooked, had to fix, and those were included in my choices. Previous photographers had made sure my daughter/son were perfect and those weren't counted as options. We were required to choose a particular pose for the program, and that limited things further. Upon finding an acceptable one, but requesting it be cropped so my son's head would be centered in the shot (both vertically and horizontally), that was done. However, my handsome son was now photoshopped to have perfect skin with a model finish and bright blue eyes (they are lt blue grey), rosy cheeks and kissable lips. ???? Remember I said I also assisted with the college students photographs. These are of young ladies in white gowns, and the best backgrounds are classic. Photography inside a classic hotel, house, or the Capitol is very possible (and has been done for decades) but requires someone who looks at everything. Mothers complained about chandeliers growing out of heads and plants growing out of sides. Now, once Steve was faced with those who openly pointed out each of these issues he worked hard to accommodate many changes--he just didn't see the overall picture from the beginning, and seemed to have some challenges setting up classical settings as choices. Sometimes the background limits your options, but I was at this same house for two sessions and after the second mother pointed out issues the three of us (Steve, mother and I) found much better options. Setup shots and group shots of at least one special group event included shots where people had to finally tell him to go away. He didn't seem to realize what shots weren't needed at all (someone not yet in makeup and in rollers!!) For a wedding that might be fine because only family sees those shots but for us everyone in the very large group sees everything :) The worst was: when presented with an issue: "I'll just send it overseas to photoshop it out". The price paid for a premium photographer for an entire event is to get the know-how to prevent things like this. Or the skill set to Photoshop it *yourself* and tweak things very carefully. Yes the industry trend (and trend for everything ) is to send it overseas. However, we "bought and paid for" the skill set to do it yourself, or at least tweak the really important things so that *must*be kept in mind. If that had been done, maybe my son wouldn't look like he was ready for pre-teen magazine. Overall:maybe a good photographer for cookie cutter shots, or when one family works with him like a wedding, but definitely not recommended for "mixed groups".
