Hiring Eivan’s for our wedding was a great decision! Our photographer Gregory I was professional and FUN! He kept us smiling throughout the day with his quirky personality! My fiancé does not care for photos so I’m happy we had someone working with us who could make him comfortable. He made sure to get multiple images even if it was just “one more”, it was never one more! We had actually hired a different photographer and we replaced him with this company. Worth the stress and money! If I had any tips for the company, it would be to have your photographers give a 30 minute warning before their contracted time is up. Weddings are so busy for the bride and groom, it is very easy to lose track of time. I think clients would appreciate a little heads up just so they can try and capture any photos they may have missed. Other than that, I have ZERO complaints. Such an amazing experience! 10/10 highly recommend :)

Hey, thanks SO much for being here! I am honored you are checking out my page. I became a full time wedding photographer after realizing my connection to capturing love stories. I value connection, transparency, and having a fun time with my couples!

My experience with Tia was absolutely phenomenal and I will be hiring her again for all of my photography needs! She is extremely personable which truly helped with my nerves as we carried out the session. My session was only supposed to be an hour long, but she said the sunset was “too perfect” to end the session so soon. So, she stayed 20 minutes past our agreed time to take golden hour photos. She didn’t have to, but she chose to. Tia is both very kind and generous!

  • Starts at $1,970

Our small team of award-winning photographers and videographers celebrate the candid, authentic beauty of your day. Because when you look back on your album you should remember the fun, easy, imperfect, personal moments that make you, you -- not how long you had to pose.

Choosing Double Knot for our wedding photography and videography was one of the best decisions we made for our special day. Their team of photographers and videographers were not just professionals; they were artists who turned an unexpected rainy day into a canvas for unforgettable memories. The team from Double Knot was incredibly nice and patient, navigating through the challenges of the weather with ease and confidence. Their ability to adapt to the changing conditions without missing a beat was remarkable. Despite the rain, they managed to capture every precious moment with a blend of creativity and precision. What really impressed us was their cool demeanor in the face of bad weather. Instead of seeing the rain as a setback, the Double Knot team used it to their advantage, creating some of the most stunning and unique shots we've ever seen. The rain added a romantic and whimsical element to our photos and videos, something we hadn't even imagined. The final results were nothing short of breathtaking. Each photo and video frame was a testament to their skill and dedication to their craft. The quality, the attention to detail, and the way they captured the emotions and essence of our day were beyond our expectations. We are immensely grateful to Double Knot for their outstanding work. We highly recommend them to anyone in search of a photography and videography team that can deliver exceptional results, no matter what surprises your special day might bring. Thank you, Double Knot, for making our wedding memories so vividly beautiful and everlasting!

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.

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
Where to even begin! We hired Diana for our engagement & wedding photos after many trusted friends recommended her to us as a queer-friendly photographer. And we are so glad we did! We were blown away at how the photos turned out and absolutely loved working with her. Diana is professional, fun to be around, and she is extremely talented at what she does. She made our shoots feel calm and enjoyable, and she always captured the best moments. Her editing is absolutely beautiful, too! She has a way of highlighting our best qualities while also maintaining the integrity of what makes us all unique as people. She pays special attention to details and really listens to what her clients want. As a queer couple, it can feel extra vulnerable to open up and be so visible with a camera in front of you, especially if you didn't know the photographer beforehand—it meant everything to us that Diana was always so warm, accepting, and kind. We really felt like we could be ourselves and that really shows in our photos. Hiring Diana was one of the best decisions we've ever made as a couple. When we had to reschedule and adjust our wedding multiple times because of the pandemic, she was flexible and worked with us every step of the way. She was actually the one who first recommended the venue we ended up going with! We cannot ever thank her enough. You will not be disappointed!

I've been in the business for over 18 years so I've seen a lot change and evolve though the years. I bring expertise to the table as well as a background in special education. Having two children of my own and having taught for over a decade, I also bring patience and grace to every person I meet. I believe love is love and I accept and welcome anyone and everyone who allows me to tell their love story.

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!

Howdy, 🤠👋 we're Samuel & Karly, your adventure elopement wedding photographer videographer and planner team! We travel around the country (and world) in our DIY camper van documenting love stories in epic places like National Parks and other wonders of the world.

The plan started out as a trip to a US national park, but as we kept changing plans and evolving what we wanted, Sam and Karly were always so there for it and incredibly supportive. We eventually landed on a three day excursion around Switzerland. Having only had short planning conversations over the course of a year, I was a little nervous to see how we all vibed in person, but there was no need. Quickly, it felt like traveling around with friends. From seeing great spots for spontaneous photos to pizza and bouncing on a trampoline in a wedding dress and road tripping across the country, Sam and Karly really made this the experience of a lifetime. I couldn't imagine this elopement with anyone but them!

  • Photojournalistic style

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

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 :)

She’s professional, punctual and really makes you feel at ease when in front of the camera. She is so amazing at capturing candid moments (which I love). She also gets pictures to you so quickly. Everyone at our wedding raved about how great she was and I love how organized the pictures were when we received them, it made it that much easier to look through and find specific pictures.

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!

I can't say enough about John. He was amazing to work with for my July 2020 wedding. Even during covid he made it happen! He was very professional and personable. I absolutely love our pictures! The lighting and the candid shots were just what we were looking for. He worked well with our dogs too! Thank you so much for being a part of our special day and capturing those wonderful moments for us! Highly recommend!

My interest in photography sparked when I was young as I watched my dad photograph everything around him. I asked for my first camera when I was 8 years old, and from the first moment it was in my hands, I couldn't put it down. I photographed EVERYTHING from bugs to people to Beanie Babies, filling shoeboxes with negatives and little 3x5 prints. After coloring "backdrops" on notebook paper for each beanie babie and having a full-on photo shoot, I knew photography would be a part of my life forever. :P I photographed my first wedding in November, 2008: over 200 weddings, 7 countries, and 20 states later, and I am still loving every second.

Betsy is the most genuine human I know. She will share in your journey, not just show up for your wedding photos. She communicates clearly and often, especially if you’re out of state from her. She went above and beyond for our engagement photos and wedding weekend. The images and moments she captures don’t compare to other photographers and her style is so rich and emotional. We will use her for the rest of our lives and would travel to see her just to work together again!

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 took the time to get to know me and my fiancé and totally got our vibe. It was clear that he had studied my wedding photography Pinterest board, had seen and understood my vision for wedding photos that were more elevated and editorial than some of the more typical wedding photographs. We have gotten non-stop compliments on our wedding photos but more importantly, my fiancé and I LOVE them. They are the perfect representation of us. And now for businessy things: Sam was punctual, always on time (usually early!) for everything from initial calls to the actual day of. He was SO polite and patient when our relatives were being annoying and asking him to take a photo on their iPhones. (eye roll, sorry Sam!!!) He was great a corralling the crowd for group portraits and he was not intrusive at all during the ceremony. Honestly, I kind of forget he was even there. It's clear that he takes pride in his work and we felt really lucky to get to have him on our wedding. TLDR: Sam slayed this and I would recommend him to everyone

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.

Allie was our Wedding photographer and we can say that she was by far our best vendor. Allie is very professional and talented. My now husband and I are not photogenic and Allie was able to get us A LOT of beautiful photos. She listens to what you want and pays attention to every detail. She is very quick at delivering the final product and the quality is amazing. We highly recommend HicksGirlsProductions!

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!

Hey there, I'm Bethany – a passionate photographer with a heart for all things wild and adventurous. I love capturing the genuine, unscripted moments that make wedding days beautifully unique. With over 300 weddings under my belt, I can truthfully say that not a single one has been the same and each one requires it’s own attention to detail. Every love story is its own masterpiece, and I'm here to bring yours to life through photographs that speak to the heart. I love encapsulating the raw emotions, the bursts of laughter, the stolen glances, and the unbreakable bonds between!

We love Bethany so much! My now husband and I rarely take photos so we didn’t have a clue how to pose or anything before we met Bethany! She made our engagement shoot so much fun by posing us, coaching us through the whole shoot and we shared a lot of laughs. We ended up with amazing shots we cherish now and forever. THEN come our wedding day, she was so EFFICIENT. We didn’t want to spend several hours on posed photos, just wanted to capture a few frame worthy shots with the family, and the rest was candid throughout the night which we REALLY appreciated. We got to enjoy our night with family and friends and we can’t wait so see the amazing shots she captured with her assistant. I would recommend her as a photographer time and time again!

Hi, I’m Kayla! I moved to Austin in 2013 to pursue my career as a graphic designer (and eat all the tacos/pet all the dogs). While working as a designer at an Austin start-up, I directed and photographed marketing campaigns for the brand’s clothing line. During this time, I realized I was happiest when I was connecting and shooting with people. I transitioned to wedding photography after a childhood friend asked me to document her wedding in 2014. I was immediately drawn to the energy, emotions, and connection that I witnessed at the wedding. After that, I decided to dive headfirst into becoming a wedding photographer and never looked back!

Kayla was the absolute perfect match for us. We had our engagement and wedding photos completed with her, and we were looking at many different photographers. However, I fell in love with her effortless mixture of posed and candid shots. The entire way through the process, Kayla reaches out and communicates with you and helps you choose your engagement outfits/where to get them done. She also helps you with your wedding timeline and asks for a must have photo list. She has great informative material she sends you to help you with all your choices. I thought our engagement photos went well, but whenever she sent them back to us, I WAS STUNNED. I absolutely love them. They are such great quality and I have them printed out all over our house. Kayla is SO easy to work with and so full of joy and encouragement. She tells you exactly how to pose. She makes the entire process so fun and exciting. I cannot recommend Kayla enough! For our wedding, we had so many setbacks through our entire weekend – that we were pushed to have a backyard wedding and it looks like nothing even went wrong. I LOVE her work and I LOVE our wedding pictures. I will treasure them forever, and I will be recommending her to everyone I can tell about her work. HIRE HER FOR ANY PICTURES – she will not disappoint! Thank you so much, Kayla!!

Creatrix Photography is an LGBT wedding photography company that focuses on creating intimate, vibrant, and authentic imagery. Humans that hire us are looking to avoid the cookie-cutter style that is so popular. It's about developing friendships, having a blast and, of course, creating amazing custom art.

The path in which we discovered Jen was so extraordinary - We live in San Diego, CA but we were getting married in Texas. Since my in-laws live in Texas I told my mother n law "Find me a photographer who captures moments." She went on to do a LOCAL search for a wedding photographer on google - My in laws live in San Antonio but somehow Jen (whose business stated Austin) popped up. When I saw her photos, I said THATS WHAT I WANT! Now almost a year later, Jen's photos are all over our house - in large CANVAS prints. Jen has the most amazing talent and ability to create stories in her pictures - her photos truly do capture the moments. One of my absolute favorite photos of our wedding was how Jen was able to capture a tear falling down my husbands cheek. The attention to detail is outstanding. On the day of our wedding she worked SO hard - she was in GAME mode - She knew exactly what she was doing and because I had so much confidence in her talent, I just let her do her thing. The photos she captured will forever hold memories for us. I can honestly say that since we are approaching our first year wedding anniversary, I have looked back on her photos probably over a thousand times to remember the moments. Trust me - these photos are not just valuable for the day or months to come or sharing on social media or with family - they are extremely valuable in your own home. You will need her photos to look back on and remember what it was like. I can't wait until another opportunity arises (hopefully a prego/baby photo session in the future) where my husband and I can fly out to Jen to do another shoot - Yep - that's how much she's worth. I would fly out to do a session with her in a heartbeat <3

Do you want total confidence that you can TRUST your photographer to not only document your wedding (duh), but to also be a helpful and friendly person to hang out with for 8+ hours on your wedding day? Are you looking for someone who truly “gets” you and brings out the most special, quirky, and fun parts of your relationship? And are you excited to work alongside someone who can help you make the BEST informed decisions while planning your wedding? I like to remind my couples to look around and enjoy every bit of their engagement and wedding day. And while you’re taking in the moment, I’ll be right beside you photographing it ALL!

Lauren was absolutely one of my favorite vendors to work with for my wedding. I've always loved taking photos and I knew I had to hire someone I could trust to capture all the special moments on my wedding day. Not only did Lauren knock this out of the park - my entire family and friends cannot get over how beautiful and candid our previews turned out!! I am absolutely over the moon with these photos and cannot stop looking at them. (I'm pretty sure I'll lose my mind when my entire gallery is delivered.) Lauren was so fun and easy to work with during our engagement pictures and on our wedding day. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. (My husband is already trying to plan any excuse to get our pictures taken again, that's how you know she's a keeper.) We loved having you be a part of our wedding Lauren!!

I specialize in lifestyle and wedding photography for those that value bold and charming imagery. I take a documentary, candid approach and my editing style showcases timeless, vibrant colors with a hint of mood. I have two dogs, I love to travel and spend time outdoors. I enjoy drinking kombucha and listening to 70s music. I'm an enneagram 3 and a sagittarius if that's more your thing.

If you want to be able to relive your wedding day, and feel the love and excitement all over again, Lauren Parr is a must as she truly captures the energy of the day! She encapsulates the pure emotions of every person. My husband and I have never felt photogenic, and are very critical when it comes to ourselves in photos. Lauren put us at ease immediately from our engagement photos, and was so fun to have around on the wedding day. Our photos showcase the beauty of our venue, and the beauty in me and my husband's genuine smiles enjoying each other and this special day. It's amazing at how Lauren and her assistant can be both all over the place capturing all the magic, and non existent at the same time. Some quick background on me - I spent almost 2 decades in the film industry, so I was very particular when choosing a photographer. I had FULL respect and trust for Lauren's craft and her eye. We have photos in our wedding album where people comment how they belong on the cover of a magazine. She simply is extraordinary. Please know that when you hire Lauren, you are not going to receive photos, you're going to receive ART commemorating your special day! If you can't tell, I can't recommend her enough!

Honest storytelling meets editorial portraiture is the core of what I do. I love a powerful portrait as much as I love real, honest exchanges between loved ones. The big moments get all the attention but what really fills my cup is the small, fleeting moments in between. Your wedding day is just 24 short hours & I want you to relax, be present, & soak it all up. Trust that I will be your eyes & ears, observing it all & documenting your day as it unfolds organically. Because in the end, your photographs will be the memory you are left with & the best ones will not only remind you of what the day looked like, but what it FELT like to be there.

Briana did an amazing job capturing special moments from our wedding. We couldn't be happier with our photos! Nothing felt posed or overproduced, and it resulted in natural, artful photos that beautifully captured all of the emotions of the day. Briana and her team also had such a calming presence on the day of the wedding, and it made me feel at ease, as I don't always love being in the spotlight or being photographed. Briana is incredibly talented, and we're so grateful that she was part of capturing our wedding day!
