    Thank you!

    Our lead photographer was Tatiana and she did such an amazing job! She was also super nice and easy to work with. We absolutely love our photos! We have so many good ones that it’s honestly hard to even pick our favorites. Talking with the True Photography team was super easy, and everything went smoothly from beginning to end. We’re really happy with how everything turned out!

    I love True Photography

    We had such a smooth experience working with True Photography & Video from start to finish. The team communicated clearly throughout the planning process and answered all of our questions without any confusion. On our wedding day, they captured all the shots that mattered to us and even helped keep things running on schedule so we could enjoy the moment. Their work is professional and exactly what we were looking for. We felt confident in their hands the entire time, and we're thrilled with how our photos turned out. If you're looking for reliable photographers who actually care about making your day special, we'd definitely recommend True Photography & Video.

    True Photography - Helpful and Friendly

    We used True Photography since they are a partner of our Wedgewood Wedding location. We worked with a team member to schedule all of our shots for the day and they thought of everything - even things we did not. Our lead photographer, Kevin, we used for both our engagement and wedding day photos - he helped make us feel at ease, had clever shot ideas, gave us a variety of photos throughout our engagement and wedding and was very friendly. He had great partners on our wedding day for a second photographer and videography and we loved our experience with them.

    Thank you so much for this awesome review Kylie - you're so sweet! We're so glad our team thought of everything to make your day seamless, and that Kevin made you feel at ease while capturing all those special moments from your engagement through your wedding day :) Congratulations again, and thank you for choosing True Photography & Video!

    Incredible Team Absolutely Gorgeous Photos

    We had an absolutely wonderful experience with True Photography & Videography and could not recommend them more highly! From the very beginning, the True management team was incredibly responsive, attentive, and thoughtful. They were also incredibly kind and accommodating when we had some specific preferences for our video, and we really appreciated how willing they were to work with us to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. Our photographers and videographer were also fantastic. Nico, our lead photographer, Kass, our secondary photographer, and Marco, our videographer, were all wonderful to work with. They had the perfect energy for our wedding—they made us feel completely comfortable, while also making the experience so much fun. Our family, wedding party, and guests all loved them, and it was so clear that everyone was having a great time with them throughout the day. And the photographs are UNREAL. We are absolutely blown away by how gorgeous our photos turned out. They captured so many beautiful moments and somehow managed to make every part of the day look even more magical than we remembered it. We also did a mini session with Nico, and he was incredible. He was so much fun to work with, gave us fantastic direction, made us feel completely comfortable, and captured some of our absolute favorite photos. He has such a great eye for getting those special shots! We are so grateful to the entire True team for capturing our wedding so beautifully and for making the entire experience so enjoyable. We will absolutely be using them again for future photography and videography sessions!

    Wow! What an incredible review :) Thank you so much for taking the time to write this - I'm so happy to hear you had an amazing time with our True team and loved the experience! Nico, Kass, and Marco truly are so talented, and it's wonderful to know that energy came through for you, your family, and your guests all day long!! Congratulations again to you both, and wishing you all the best as you start this next chapter as newlyweds!

    Exceptional experience

    From our first conversation, True Photography & Video showed they genuinely cared about capturing our day. Chelsea, our lead photographer, was thoughtful and professional every step of the way, and the whole team—including the assistant photographer, videographer and the planning team, made everything feel smooth. They went above and beyond to find the magic in every moment, putting real care into each shot instead of just going through the motions. Our guests kept telling us how nice they were to work with, and honestly, the final photos and video exceeded what we imagined. Communication was smooth from start to finish, which made the planning process so much easier. We couldn't have asked for a better team to document our wedding.

    Aaron Feldman•Aug 20, 2026

    Thank you so much for taking the time to write this incredible review! I am so happy to hear that Chelsea and the whole team, from the assistant photographer to the videographer and timeline planning team, made everything feel smooth and special from start to finish. Finding the magic in every moment is exactly what we strive for, so it means so much to hear that came through in your photos and video. Thank you again for trusting us to document your wedding, we couldn't be more grateful. Wishing you all the best as you start this new chapter as a newlywed!!

Because we have a team we will almost always have availability. With that said we do book in order of seniority, so for our most experienced photographers, booking earlier is best.
We do offer video services and have and you can see a sample of our work here. https://www.truephotography.com/videos/highlights
We have a VERY fast turnaround. Typically your pictures are ready within a week and a half.
We do! Just let us know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and we can send that over to them. We have 2 million in liability.
Because we have a team, we always have backup and more backup. We have never cancelled or missed a wedding in 23 years of being in business and over 5000 events.
We often have a second shooter present. It is really dependent on what you are looking for in terms of coverage.
