“I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.”

“Our photographer name was Hunter, and he was absolutely amazing. I booked through original weddings because my photographer I originally had had never gotten back to me, and was three weeks to spare. This company made me feel like everything was going to be perfect, and that my wedding was going to be captured in the most incredible way! Hunter had made us feel so comfortable and he made our photos turn out to be more than I could ever dream of! I would recommend them 1 million times over again if I could, and if I could have booked them originally in the first place I would have! Our photo turnaround time was about two weeks and the pictures were more than I could ever imagine!!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“TWA Photographic Artists were straightforward and direct in their communication, and kept us on schedule throughout our wedding day. Their work was great, capturing many timeless and detailed shots. However, at times they seemed a bit hurried when working with our wedding party and guests, though they remained attentive and eager to get the right shots. For example, the photographer remembered the little details that made our photos special, but we felt a bit rushed after the ceremony and didn't fully capture the joy of those moments. Overall, TWA provided solid photography services, but could have been a bit more patient and attuned to our desired pace for the day.”

I’ve been in weddings where posed photos take hours, but Allison was so efficient and got every shot we wanted in a short amount of time without feeling rushed. The candid photos from the reception are amazing; seeing all the interactions of our guests was such a gift since the day itself was a whirlwind for us. She even accommodated a last-minute request just a week before the wedding to add her photo booth option, which was a huge hit with everyone!

“We initially chose Ivory Grove because we loved their editing style and the affordable price for both a photographer and videographer. We were nervous because we did not get to select our photographer or videographer; instead, they were assigned to us by Ivory Grove. However, those nerves quickly subsided when we had our engagement photoshoot with Christie! My husband and I can be a bit awkward, but Christie made us feel so comfortable and was able to capture our personalities in such a magical way. She even helped me create my wedding day timeline to ensure the day went smoothly and that she could capture all of the special moments. We met Brock, our videographer, on the day of the wedding, and he fit right in while capturing all of the important moments. After the wedding, we were told our media would be ready within 30 to 60 days. Our photos were delivered just 10 days after the wedding, and our videos were delivered 17 days after the wedding!

I've been told I have a soft smile and can be somewhat self conscious when posing for photos, but Daniel erased every bit of that feeling. The entire day was magical, and I can't imagine anyone else being able to capture what he did.

“Words cannot express how amazing it was to work with Misha & his Quality Media team. Misha went above & beyond to make us feel comfortable & direct us while taking every shot. The team made us incredibly comfortable & prioritized all of our wants & needs above all. We planned our wedding in less than 90 days & Misha was there to guide us every step of the way...giving us the best recommendations! The entire Wedding flowed seamlessly thanks to the amazing team work between all of our vendors & the venue! Overall great experience! We received amazing quality work, with great communication & flexibility. We were incredible fortunate to have found and booked Misha and the Quality Media photography & videography team! Bonus: Don't be fooled, Misha knows how to break it down on the dancefloor too.”

“We had the best experience shooting our engagement pictures with Mohammed! Before the day, he was quick to communicate, but not pushy, he was flexible when we adjusted the time a few days before shooting, and he was very straightforward with pricing, payment, and all technical details like that. He arrived early to set up so we could start right on time, and he guided us through posing during our session while still capturing our spontaneous moments as well. His vibe was warm and calm, which is exactly what I needed to feel comfortable in front of the camera. The photos are BEYOND gorgeous and he got the edits back to us in an extremely quick turnaround. I would recommend him to anyone doing lifestyle photos or couples photography of any kind. He made our day feel easy and super special!”

McKinney, TX
  • Fine art style

I'm Michael Anthony, a wedding photographer based in Dallas–Fort Worth, with a second studio in Los Angeles. I shoot across DFW — Dallas, Fort Worth, McKinney, Frisco, Prosper, Plano — and travel for couples marrying farther afield. Nine countries and 1,000+ weddings so far. My approach is editorial and unobtrusive. I document the day rather than direct it, because I want your images to make you feel the moment again, not simply see it. I take a limited number of weddings each year so each one gets real attention. Tell me your date and venue and I'll confirm availability right away.

“Michael, Jen, Courtney and the whole team was an absolute joy to work with from the start! I’ve had the pleasure to have our engagement shoot by Michael and Jen, my wife had her boudoir shoot by Jen, and our incredible wedding shoot by Michael and Brian; each experience was smooth, simple to follow and so much fun! Courtney was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process emails, texts and walking us through our picture reveals! My wife and I have never had our pictures professionally taken and didn’t know what to expect, to say we were blown away is an understatement! We felt so comfortable throughout the whole process, looked beautiful in each shot, but what I loved the most was how perfectly Michael captured our playfulness in the most beautiful way. Everyone seeing our pictures could experience our love story just jump off the page. Truly magical”

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
