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!!!!

There are no words. Allison and the SBC team are beyond talented. We booked them, as our venue (House of Blues) was going to be a photography challenge, and they were highly recommended. We found out why! We used SBC for our engagements, my bridals, and our wedding. As soon as spots are available, we’re signing up for the spring minis, too! Allison has a true gift. My husband and I are awkward and goofy, and we’d never had professional photos taken. We were made to feel comfortable and HAVE FUN, and we have the most beautiful photos back as a result of the insane talent SBC has. Photography was my main concern with our wedding, as years down the line, photos will be how we can truly remember the details of the day. And wow, I am floored at the ART we got back.

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!

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!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

Mandi took the time to really get to know our son and his bride. She was able to capture some of the sweetest moments before, during, and after the ceremony. Mandi also caught so many candid moments with the families and friends that came to share in the love of the weekend. He is so easy to work with. Very professional and so easy to convey what you want in your photos. Mandi has a special insight and creativity that makes the most beautiful memories.

Canyon & Pine: Wedding Photography + Films

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $700
  • Serves Athens, 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.

LONG REVIEW but PLEASE read it all! Canyon and Pine are worth the booking!!! TLDR: Book Canyon and Pine if you want someone reliable, capable, and CRAZY talented (especially if you are an introvert!!). Emma SAVED our wedding from being ruined by a coordinator. For context, I have been photographing portraits for 10 years and have photographed two weddings. There's a LOT that goes into both weddings and good photos so we (I, haha!) were really picky when choosing a wedding photographer. From the moment we first connected with the team at Canyon & Pine, we knew we were in good hands. We were nervous about having photos taken but their friendly, cooperative, and personalized approach put us at ease throughout the entire wedding planning process. From day one, we felt incredibly comfortable coming to Emma with any and all concerns, questions, and ideas. When you book with Canyon & Pine, you really are booking quality artistic storytelling. The personable, humorous, and down to Earth team shown on their website is exactly what you get in person. We chose to book a package which included an engagement session in which Emma went above and beyond providing outfit suggestions, reminders, and other helpful guides to make our engagement session memorable and beautiful. She then drove out FIVE HOURS to meet us at sunset in Oklahoma and capture the most beautiful photos on top of a whole mountain! My husband and I are NOT camera people, I cannot stress how comfortable Emma made these two introverts. I also did bridals with Emma. Trust me when I tell you NOBODY will make you feel more comfortable than she does. I was going through some major health issues at the time of my bridal portraits and just didn't feel or fully look like myself. Emma found a way to make me look stunning. -- I'm really proud of these photos and will show them to every and anyone who asks (or not, haha!). She truly helped me feel beautiful in front of the camera. On the day of our wedding, Canyon & Pine's thoughtful and personable demeanor helped us stay calm and focused on enjoying the moment. The quality of their work was absolute perfection - they captured every detail with incredible precision. Nothing was overlooked and they took great care to make sure every single feeling was highlighted throughout the day (and there were a lot!). Special and priceless moments were constantly caught on camera despite the craziness of the day. On our day, there was a significant issue with the coordinator that threatened to derail the whole wedding. Emma stepped in and saved the day, ensuring our wedding ran smoothly and playing the part of coordinator and photographer. She went above and beyond, considering every last detail and helping us have fun during incredibly stressful moments. Because of Canyon and Pine, we can now look back on our wedding day and see it as beautiful, touching, memorable, and unforgettable instead of the disaster it surely would have been without Emma's help and knowledge. We will be booking Canyon & Pine for all of our future photography needs, from family photos to pregnancy announcements. At the end of the day, when booking a wedding photographer, you're booking someone you feel you can trust to be there every step of the way, leave no photographic stone unturned, and help you look your best. Emma is your girl and Canyon and Pine is your place.

Barry is a rare Gem. Photography is a huge deal for our family as my husband and I are very passionate about it. I lack the profound words to describe Barry’s work. He is reasonable, experienced and his end results do all the talking for him. His images captured everything that many use editing gadgets to portray. A simple black and white portrait makes you feel what a thousand colors may struggle to. Barry thank you so much for the amazing work you do.

When I tell y'all that Manny is your wedding bestie, there is no other way to describe it!! I had the incredible opportunity to shadow Manny during a recent wedding, and I can't express enough how inspiring the experience was! From the moment we arrived, their passion for photography and attention to detail were evident. He was able to be quick on his feet and to think immediately what need to be done to get multiple shots and poses within a structured timeline, he is definitely gifted with a quickness to think, not many can do that! Manny has an amazing ability to capture genuine emotions and candid moments, making each shot feel alive and personal. Manny truly has an eye for unique angles and beautiful lighting that truly sets their work apart. I was in awe of how he seamlessly blended into the festivities, making everyone feel at ease while still capturing those breathtaking moments. Not only is Manny a true artist, but his professionalism and creativity shines through in every aspect of his work. He communicated brilliantly with the couple, groomsmen, guests, and so on for ensuring that everything flowed smoothly. The final images are nothing short of magical, encapsulating the love and joy of the day. I learned so much from watching him in action, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. If you’re looking for a photographer who can turn your special moments into timeless memories, look no further!
