Kimberly Mufferi Photography

Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,800

I've had a camera in my hand since I was a kid. My mom was a wedding photographer also. I spend my days taking photos because it inspires me and fills me with joy. To me, there is nothing better than capturing a beautiful moment. I have photographed weddings all over the US TX, NY and the Hudson Valley, the East Coast, as well as in Europe, the Caribbean, & Hawaii. A few more things about me… I love the ocean, traveling, exploring, hiking, dancing, the change of seasons, the outdoors, sunrises, sunsets, walking without a destination, that few minutes of magical golden light before the sun sets, life… and telling stories with photographs.

We have used Kim for both our engagement shoot and wedding day. She is very attentive, reliable, professional, and you can tell she really is passionate about her work. She goes above and beyond. Our love was so beautifully captured and I am so grateful for her gifts. 100% recommend!

Double Knot Pictures | Photo + Video 

5.0

Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • 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.

We used Double Knot twice! Once for our small wedding ceremony in December of 2020, and again for our larger reception in October 2022. Both photographers made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera, got great coverage, and really captured the love we felt on both days. The turnaround was quick, and both sets of phots turned out absolutely gorgeous! We would absolutely use them again if we ever have a need!

We are so happy that we went with Sound Originals! The process was extremely smooth and their online platform was so easy to use and update. Everyone on the team was transparent and helpful. We wanted to add another photographer a month before our wedding and Sound Originals made it happen. After my wedding I was able to change the editing to timeless from emerald after realizing I selected the wrong style. Our photographers were extremely professional and easy to work with and we cannot recommend this company enough!

Morgan Elise Photography 

5.0

Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
When I was looking for a wedding photographer, my main goal was to find a photographer that could capture the raw emotions of the day. I looked through HUNDREDS of photographers and Morgan stood out for the way she balanced artistry, emotion, and detail. Morgan captured the most stunning images of my wedding. I am so impressed by the way she was able to capture our personalities in the photos. Not only did we receive beautiful still portraits, but we received pictures that made us feel like we were reliving the moments. That’s exactly what you want from a wedding photographer. On top of the beautiful images, Morgan is a joy to work with. She is kind and uplifting, extremely professional, and turns the photos around extremely fast. Morgan was one of the best choices I made for our wedding and you should absolutely choose her too.

Diana Ascarrunz Photography

Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,600

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!

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.

Amazing, outstanding, and very professional. Allie was very good at providing affordable options and the quality of the photos was great! Please utilize Allie/HGP for your photography needs. She is sweet, punctual, personable, and her work is absolutely amazing!

Heather Wise Photography 

5.0

Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,300

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Stop researching and just book Heather now. Our photos are incredible and exactly what we hoped for — but that isn’t the best part. We eloped, so it was literally me, my wife, and our 6 year old daughter, plus Heather. I was anxious bringing a total stranger into such an intimate, private moment. She arrived and instantly put us at ease. Our daughter is shy around new people, and I worried that might impact our photos. Heather immediately engaged her, letting her “push the buttons” on the camera as her photography assistant. She completely won her over! We had two relaxed hours, good guidance about posing (but not too much), and perfect memories to reflect on. Heather, thanks for making us comfortable and helping us celebrate!

Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $950

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

Sam Hugh Photography

Austin, TX
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500

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 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.

For those playfully and deeply in love! Color and Beam provides artful film and digital hybrid wedding and elopement photography based in Southern California and Texas, available for travel. I’m a storyteller, but the picture book kind. I usually skip the words and pore over the pictures. I geek out over colors, light, and movement, so it makes a lot of sense that photography is where I’ve landed.

We’ve known and loved Haley for a while now and we were confident she would capture our engagement beautifully. Over the course of three days in NYC, Haley was not only very flexible, professional, and prepared, she took the most incredible photos that felt so ‘us’ and we will cherish them for the rest of our lives. And we have already received so many compliments about the photos! We couldn't be more happy with our decision to trust Haley to capture such an important moment for us — highly, highly recommend Color and Beam!!

A husband & wife team who travel around the Texas hill country photographing all things love and exciting! We have three rescue cats & a parrot who truly do act like kids. (But we sure do love ‘em!)

If you’re looking for someone to photograph any special moment in your life I highly recommend Naomi. Not only did she capture our engagement, but we loved her so much that we flew her to our home state to take our wedding photos. She is such a delight to work with. 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. If you want quality pictures that you’ll cherish forever I highly recommended Naomi and Sweet Memories Photography.

Im Chris, a photographer living in Austin Texas. I think connection between people, whether they be strangers, best friends, or loved ones, is what this is all about. I think every moment can be captured in a beautiful way.

Awarded Best of Zola
Chris is easy-going and relaxing to work with right from the jump. His creative eye always found a way to incorporate our surroundings yet he always was able to capture a natural expression. We had a few different locations for our engagement shoot and in each location, he was able to find something unique, experimented with different framing, but was always able to keep us at ease in front of a camera. Overall he made the day really special and we left with a memorable set of images that we see every day on our walls! It was great working with him and I'll jump at any chance to do it again. 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.

We are soo happy that we had Betsy photographing our weddingday. She made it so special. We felt totally comfortable with her around us. She knew what kind of photos we wanted and gave us what we wanted and more. She is am amazing photographer. but also a great and kind, sweet och easygoing person. We recommend her with all our hearts.

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.
