“Eivan's made our wedding day wonderful! Alexander Schmidt was our photographer, and our videographer was Noah. We got our pictures back sooner than expected, and they suited the exact style we had hoped for. Communication was great, photos were easy to access, and we were allowed free download for so many pictures! One family portrait had one person not looking, otherwise people were smiling and looking in everything. Many people commented on their professionalism as well as their kindness at the wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
“We initially went with Sound Originals out of cost consideration and ease of booking because their combined photo/video package seemed so much more cost effective than many of the quotes we were getting from individual photographers and videographers. We assumed therefore that the quality might be a bit diminished by comparison, but were quite pleasantly surprised to discover that this was not the case! We are beyond pleased with the coverage they provided of our wedding and reception, and would certainly recommend Sound Originals to anyone seeking photo/video of their big day. Our team on the day of the wedding were absolute rock stars. Kate, Trung, and Travis all were incredibly friendly and helpful, and went above and beyond in ensuring we had excellent photos and video--both candids and plandids. We're so grateful to each of them for their excellent work! If you're considering booking Sound Originals, there is one practical consideration we might offer, however: Their business model seems streamlined to provide a standardized product and level of quality to many clients at once by contracting with local photographers and videographers--this is great for ensuring that clients know what to expect visually and that the company has backup photographers ready in case any members of the assigned team can't make it, but this also seems to come at the cost of personal touch when communicating with the company and the photo/video team. Our communications with them were always through a portal on their website and often felt rather impersonal. This was a trade off we were perfectly fine with, given the very affordable price we paid for our package and the piece of mind in knowing that even if our lead photographer got sick or something, someone else would be there to fill in. If you, however, require a high level of customization or personal touch and want to cultivate a close relationship with your photographer, then you may want to hire a photographer/team directly.”

Hey there! I'm Matthew, an experienced photographer with nearly 30 years of experience behind the lens specializing in budget-friendly, high-quality photography based out of Leander, Texas. I have been shooting since I was about ten years old on 110 cameras, in high school I learned to shoot on a 35 MM camera. Professionally I accepted my first paid shoot in 1996, a boudoir session for the girlfriend turned wife of a friend deploying overseas with the Army. I earned $50 and a six-pack of beer for a one-hour session on a Canon AE1 35 MM film camera I bought at a yard sale.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Matthew is absolutely fantastic! I found him on Zola and from the beginning he was quick to respond and very friendly. I had given him an idea of what I was looking for in our allotted time, and he just amazed all of us with the images he captured! My husband and I get very nervous taking photos, but Matthew made us feel so comfortable and guided us with patience and humor to capture some gorgeous images along with photos he took of moments during the ceremony and reception. I immediately added the family pics to my social media pages and the final edited photos are breathtaking. I have pictures of all of our bridal party and very sweet moments of us as newlyweds. I almost didn't hire a photographer, but I am so glad we did. Matthew does fantastic work, is super friendly and professional. I would hire him again for any photos and recommend him 100%!!!”

My name is Branson and I am the Best Of State Winner in Utah. I have traveled to over 80 countries photographing and filming weddings in all corners of the globe. I also teach photography and videography to other creatives and am known for my timeless, romantic, and candid style.

“TLDR The value you get when choosing Branson Way more than offsets the cost. He is a world class photographer and equally excellent in post. Pick him and he will not let you down. Pick someone else and you're rolling the dice. Branson's Photography speaks for itself, but it can't leave a review so I will! Any photographer can take a picture, few can capture moments. What was important to my Fiance and I when selecting a photographer was someone that would do the basics, quick responses, a modicum of flexibility, shows up on time, that kind of thing. We also wanted someone who would be fun to work with, listen to our requests, and when needed share, based on his extensive experience, what we should be doing differently. We wanted a photographer that could direct people in group shots, and direct us! we're not models (even if my wife looks like one) but Branson was fantastic at getting the best and most natural poses out of us. Branson is the Unicorn of a photographer that manages all of this with poise and grace. When asked for he had perspective and advice on many aspects of prep for the wedding. Branson isn't just a photographer, by the time we were done with engagements, first look, flat lays, the wedding day itself Branson was family.”

“Amazing! Stunning! Beautiful! Organic! Breathtaking! These are truly just a few of the words we would use to describe Te Dua Weddings. We cannot recommend them enough to capture your special day with both photography and videography. The duo of Enea and Hayley was beyond anything we could have imagined, from the early phone calls to the day of our wedding, we were so at ease and knew they could handle capturing the most important day of our lives. They took the time to get to know us and were able to capture our love story and who we are as a couple. One of the biggest compliments we can give them is how comfortable they made us, with every shot, pose or set up we trusted them and the outcome was truly spectacular. From the family portraits, to our first look, to the ceremony, sunset vineyard shots and of course the reception they captured every moment. The passion they have comes through in their photos and is a true art form. To say we’re obsessed with the wedding photos and video is a complete understatement. We could not be happier with the outcome and loved our relationship with them through the whole process. While wedding planning is one of the most stressful times for a couple, picking Te Dua Weddings was the easiest, stress free decision we could have made. If you want gorgeous, exquisite, story telling memories from your wedding day, choose Te Dua Weddings. Marisa & Tanner Schultheis”

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.

Hi, I'm Misha. There is so much to know about my team, but the most important thing is that we love storytelling. You might not realize it, but you have an amazing story to tell and we are here to help you with that. My team and I have traveled from Key West in South Florida all the way to Port Saint Lucie capturing our clients’ special days. There is no wedding/elopement too big or too small for us to serve. We love working with couples and have helped hundreds preserve their timeless memories. Photography and videography are our passion and we are ready to show you how we will make your special day the one to remember!

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 Anthony Photography was one of the best decisions we made for our Dallas wedding. From the first conversation, the team was organized, responsive, and genuinely interested in understanding what mattered most to us. Neither of us felt especially comfortable in front of a camera, but their direction made everything feel natural. They helped us with posing when we needed it, kept our family photographs organized, and captured the candid moments without interrupting the day. Even when our timeline changed, the team stayed calm and made sure we never felt rushed. When we received our gallery, we were blown away. The photographs feel cinematic, emotional, and timeless. They captured the excitement of the celebration, the quiet moments between us, and so many reactions from our family and friends that we had completely missed. We highly recommend Michael Anthony Photography to anyone looking for a Dallas wedding photographer. Their experience, creativity, and professionalism gave us photographs that truly bring us back to our wedding day.”

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.
