About

To your wedding I bring the energy required to present a natural narrative of the big day, moment by real moment - and an eye for the magic when the light meets the moment, making you and groom and all of your raving fans a part of something bigger and more wonderful feeling than you imagined. You can trust me not to miss that.

You can expect a full complement of required posed shots, however most of my photographs will be aimed at documenting the day as it was, in the details and smiles and quirks that brides and families tell me evoke the most powerful memories.

My name is Mary Sledd. I have 10 years of editorial photography experence. I live and work in South Austin, and I look forward to meeting you.
