“Brandy Gray from Firefly Photography captured our wedding day in a way we couldn't have imagined. She has a real gift for making you feel beautiful and special in front of the camera, which shows in every single photo. Beyond just taking pictures, Brandy gave us helpful tips on the run of the show that made our day flow so much smoother. The quality of her work is outstanding—the photos are flattering and show how much she cares about her work and making you happy. We were blown away by how she managed to catch all the little moments that mattered to us. If you're looking for a photographer who cares about your day as much as you do, Brandy is the one. We also utilized her for our engagement/family pictures. She was so sweet and patient with our three demanding preteen/teenage daughters!”

“My husband and I decided to seal the deal at the courthouse with only a few weeks notice. I met Celine after making a FB post inquiring for services. Her work was beautiful and she was very kind and communicative from the start. This is what drew me into using her services. What will have me return for future needs is how kind, bubbly and enthusiastic she is. My husband is not one for pictures, 3 clicks and he's done. But Celine was able to keep him engaged and kept it fun for even him! The photos I received back were more than I could have imagined. She really captured us incredibly well. Incredibly thankful for her!”

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 an excellent photographer. Matthew got recommended to us by our venue Texas old town. We called a few other photographers but his prices were the best and after getting our touches up pictures we are impressed and he delivered amazing results. From the beginning Matthew was so easy and flexible with the booking and payment. We agreed on a contract and met day of the wedding. The day of the wedding he jumped right in, me and my husband were busy and he noticed. he wasted no time getting detail shots and looking back at it I’m glad he did. those small moments mean so much and during getting ready that was never communicated and I’m glad he took initiative to do this. Matthew walked us through poses and easy going, he broke the ice with both of our families and this was a big plus for us as the pictures were fun to do. Matthew was so helpful in more ways than photography, he and our DJ were willing to work together if we didn’t have a wedding coordinator. We had multiple family helping with this but if your getting married you may have seen wedding coordinator prices and you will see why this is soo important. He also kept us on schedule. Throughout the wedding he came up to me and my husband asking if we were okay. HE HELPED CUT OUR CAKE. He walked us through the pose and how to do our first bite and HELPED SERVE CAKE TO OUR GUEST. My wedding was perfect and waking up the next day to have the raw photos available, it’s very clear Matthew cares deeply about his profession and it’s so understandable why he gets so many good reviews. I will recommend him every chance I get and he will be my go to photographer. Thanks Matthew!”

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.

My name is Seth Landau and I LOVE my job! One thing I've learned photographing many fun weddings is that no couples' story is the same. Being a wedding photographer, it is my job to tell the story of the couple in a way that feels fun, unique, and true. What I love most is delivering a gallery that feels like you. Check out my website portfolio section to see how I tell different couples' stories in unique ways.

“We knew Photos by Seth was the right choice the moment we spoke with him. Seth and Abby felt like friends rather than vendors, and they were genuinely fun to work with throughout the entire day. They captured every moment we wanted and even pulled us away for photos with the cows, details that made our day feel uniquely ours. Seth's professionalism kept everything running smoothly while his attention to detail shined through in every shot. From our first conversation to the final photos, Seth was responsive and helpful, delivering exactly the style we envisioned.

I am dedicated to providing for couples who value the magic of love, authenticity, and connection.

“Fable was the perfect choice for our vampire queer wedding. From the moment we first spoke, she was very professional and sincere. She made my wife and I feel completely at ease in front of the camera, providing natural and creative pose direction that captured the unique beauty of our two large wedding gowns. Her passion for her craft and care for our special day was evident throughout the entire process. She did not shy away from the dark and moody themes involved with our non traditional wedding, and checked in on us before the day to lock in any key shots we would like captured. The final photos were a beautiful collaboration of our vision and her artistic eye, resulting in dreamy, fantasy-inspired images that truly represent our queer love story. Fable's ability to wrangle our large bridal party and family for portraits was also incredibly helpful, as she took charge with a direct yet kind approach. She is very invested in her craft and is willing to go the extra mile to do the crazy thing and get the crazy shot. We are so grateful to have found a photographer who not only produced stunning imagery, but made us feel truly seen and celebrated on our wedding day.”

I've been shooting weddings in the Austin area and beyond (have camera, will travel) for 15 years. I truly believe in documenting real feelings and always looking for bright colors and warm light. I think that weddings can and should be personal, fun, special, and of the moment and I do everything I can to help make that happen.

“Where to even begin? I knew I wanted to hire Leah over 10 years ago when my best friend was looking for a wedding photographer (Leah was already booked because she's simply the greatest to ever do it & she's in high demand). I love the way Leah captures emotion & sees people. Actually getting to hire her was a dream - she sets clear expectations, explains things well, gives you plenty of time to prepare, & goes above & beyond to get you ready for your day. It was so meaningful for us to hire a queer woman to photograph our lesbian wedding. She blended right into our group of friends, seamlessly capturing big moments & creating small ones just for us that will now live in our memories forever. We felt so comfortable with her & so did all of our guests. She was able to naturally & candidly capture so many beautiful shots. I am in awe of her work! She has such an artistic eye (hey female gaze!), but she is also a consummate professional. You can see plainly her decades of experience as she does the work of an entire team condensed into one person. She was there for all the right moments, one angle after another. She also edited so incredibly fast, I couldn't even believe it! Our implicit trust in her paid off because now we have these incredible photos for a lifetime of memories. Leah, you truly are more than a photographer, you're a historian documenting the most important moments of our lives. You are leaving us with historical, archeological artifacts that will live much longer than we do, showing the world that we were here & we were in love. You have woven yourself into the tapestry of queer history & now we have the honor of joining you. Thank you for the photographs, the friendship, the memories, & the real queer history. It was such an honor to have you be a part of our day.”

She captured our proposal, engagement session, welcome party, and wedding day, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with our process working together or the results. She’s a master of her craft, a wonderful storyteller, and the kind of vendor friend you want by your side throughout your wedding season. Aurelia was abundantly communicative and professional, and she consistently went above and beyond. For example, when it rained on our wedding day, Aurelia used her prior weather experience to guide our vendor team on when to have our outdoor ceremony, and it went off without a hitch. She delivered hundreds of heirloom level photos that’ll fill our home for years and years to come! Not hiring Aurelia will be your biggest wedding regret!!

Hi, friend! As you know, my name is Jarrah and I am a wedding photographer. I am a mom to two daughters, Madie and Dharma, and two dogs, Bubba and Presh. I grew up in Boulder, Colorado and I really believe that the breathtaking parts of that area are what led me to fall in love with photography. It’s also part of the reason that half of my business is Colorado weddings even though I live in the Greater Austin Area. :) I simply cannot give up the beautiful mountain backdrop, and for me serving couples in Texas and Colorado is the perfect combination.

Jarrah and her team have an extraordinary ability to combine technical skills with genuine care for their clients, making every interaction and final product special. We are so grateful for their contribution to preserving the memories of the happiest day of our lives, and we highly recommend them to anyone planning their special event! She was incredibly helpful during the envisioning of both our prenuptial and wedding. She is not only fun to work with but also extremely punctual, professional, and, most importantly, always easy to reach whenever we have questions or need advice. Her style of photography perfectly suited our vision, giving us the comfort and confidence that she would capture every special moment of our celebration. Jarrah and her team use top-notch equipment to preserve memories with exceptional quality. We were privileged to work with her during our prenuptial or engagement photo session on September 19, 2024. A week before the session, she ensured we had a list of poses and shots we wanted her to capture, which was incredibly helpful and made the session itself run smoothly. We posted our desired poses on the easy-to-use vision board on Pinterest. The venue we chose for the session was Zilker Park, and Jarrah made the most of the location's beauty while incorporating our ideas and poses. She also honored our request for additional poses. She included plenty of shots with our dog, Yumi, which we deeply appreciated (it was clear she adored Yumi, as she took so many wonderful pictures of her during both the prenuptial session and the wedding itself). During the venue walkthrough later on September 19, 2024, at Rose Haven, Jarrah demonstrated her professionalism by attending the event to study the venue and confirm all our requests. She also discussed the timeline with our day of coordinator. Her attention to detail gave us peace of mind, knowing everything would be executed beautifully on our big day. On the wedding day itself, October 5, 2024, we were once again privileged to work with Jarrah and her exceptional team, which included two photographers and one videographer. We loved having such a well-rounded team, even for our small wedding. Jarrah and her team went above and beyond to ensure every meaningful moment was captured. They worked tirelessly to document every detail we had envisioned, and they were also flexible, accommodating additional photos and videos not on the original vision board to ensure our day was captured just the way we wanted. After the wedding, Jarrah maintained her professionalism. She ensured she remained available for any questions we had about her team’s work or if anything needed adjustments. We had a question about the edited 20 minute long wedding video. We wanted to see if she could insert more clips from the maid of honor speech. We decided it wasn’t necessary, but we appreciated her taking the time to meet with us a month after the wedding was over. Looking at the finished products – the prenuptial photos, wedding pictures, and wedding videos – we can confidently say that the price we paid was worth every penny. The quality, care, and artistry she poured into her work are evident in every shot and frame.”

I love to work with couples from all walks of life, telling their unique love stories through timeless photography. My favorite parts of the wedding day are capturing the fine details, the excited walk down the aisle at the end of the ceremony, and the romantic newlywed portraits-especially when done at sunset. I'm here to be your wedding day hype girl!!

“Sierra is an outstanding choice for your photography needs! My husband and I used her for our wedding photographer and were absolutely blown away by the results. Sierra was accommodating, kind and made taking beautiful photos so easy. We were so impressed and loved working with Sierra that we also used her for maternity photos as well. Her knowledge of hidden gem spots in Austin and ability to get the perfect shot is unmatched. You won’t regret choosing her! We can’t wait for our next chance to capture memories with Sierra.”

I am a fine art wedding photographer who makes your photos more FUN. I'm for the couples who want to show the JOY while still getting those beautiful, editorial images. Ever since my first wedding in 2006 (where I developed the negatives in the darkroom myself), I have been obsessed with capturing couples' love stories. I was born and raised in Chicago where I still split half my time, but I will travel all over the world to capture your love. You can always find me covered in an endless supply of dog hair or hiding chapsticks in several locations around my home.

“Kristin did our engagement and wedding photos and they are all absolutely incredible! Before we even had a session with Kristin, she was super helpful and responsive. She gave vendor recommendations and timeline suggestions which were greatly appreciated! I had trouble deciding on a location for our engagement photos and Kristin did a great job at giving recommendations. We had so much fun shooting with her and I immediately knew we made the right choice. Kristin is so fun to be around! She’s funny, she’s the ultimate hype girl, and she gives great direction. Kristin helped make my wedding day truly incredible and we had a blast spending all day with her. I’m so sad that it’s all over now, but we would rehire in a heartbeat! She is such a gem and you will never regret booking her!”
