Dustin is the man!

Of all the vendors, there’s the most pressure on the photographer, because not only do you spend the entire day together, but you rely on them to capture the day for you to look back on. Dustin blew both categories out of the water. He was so easy and flexible when we had to pivot plans on our first look spot, was somehow always around when something wild happened on the dance floor, and most importantly was a welcomed presence through the day - we actually had a blast working with him which was not what I was expecting! The photos are absolute perfection and we can hardly wait to see the rest - I’m so grateful we went with the Waller team and would highly recommend them to anyone!

Always in the Right Place at the Right Time - Captured Every Beautiful Moment!

We cannot say enough amazing things about Dustin and his team! Working with them was truly a dream from start to finish. They made everyone feel so comfortable throughout the day and had an incredible ability to capture the most beautiful, intimate moments—always seeming to be in exactly the right place at the right time.

Throughout our celebration, multiple guests commented on how wonderful the team was and how much they enjoyed working with them. We feel incredibly lucky to have had such an amazing week, and we're so grateful they were there to capture every moment.

If you're getting married in the Santa Barbara area, do yourself a favor and book Dustin's team. You won't regret it!

Best Wedding Photographer!

Dustin and his team were truly a delight to work with for my wedding! He is so kind, creative, attentive, profressional, positive, energetic and makes you feel at ease during your event. My husband does not like to take photos and he had nothing but great things to say about Dustin. And the pictures of course were amazing! Do not hesitate to book Dustin for your next event, you won't regret it!

Fantastic Videography

I would highly recommend Dustin Waller of Waller Weddings who did the videography of our daughter's wedding. Dustin's approach to editing shows his sensitivity to tell a story that fits the bride and groom so well. Somehow he "feels" the emotions of everyone and the mood of every moment of that day. The creativity is extremely impressive -- the editing is unbelievable -- and the music choices were spot on. If you want to enjoy your wedding for a life time on a video that catches all the beautiful and fun moments of your special day, contact Dustin at Waller Weddings.

Best wedding videographer in town!

We hired Waller Weddings as our wedding videographer and we're so glad we did! We spoke with Dustin about what we envisioned our wedding video to be, and he delivered! He’s so easy to work with and made us feel so comfortable on the day of our wedding. He had a vision for some epic sunset videos and captured them perfectly even though he had only a few minutes before the sun went down. He edited our video so beautifully and he was quick to make minor edits on our final videos based on our feedback. Our family and friends said they were in tears reliving our magical day (as were we!). We highly recommend working with Waller Weddings!

Pictures and Experiences that will last a lifetime!

There aren’t enough words to describe how amazing Dustin and Courtney are! We hired them as our photographers, videographer, and photo booth for our wedding, which was the best decision we made! Not only are they the kindest and most genuine people you will ever meet, they are also so talented and passionate about what they do! I loved how we told them the kinds of pictures we would like and they delivered that on another level, they got inspired during the pictures to do certain poses, which made for pictures that we can’t wait to frame! The fact that we were able to hire photography, videography and our photo booth through them was so incredible and made everything flow so much better. Their photo booth came with a photo booth attendant which made such a difference and I truly have never seen a better photo booth than this one at a wedding! They also were able to guide us since we are awkward and never take pictures quite like this, we never felt uncomfortable the entire picture-taking time! Everyone at our wedding can’t stop talking about how amazing our pictures turned out and we couldn’t agree more! These are some of the most special pictures we will ever take and we were so lucky to have Waller Weddings capture our special day.

Most Incredible Experience!

The Wallers were easily one of the best parts of our wedding day. So funny and kind, but also so incredibly talented. Their ability to stay on a tight schedule was beyond impressive, especially considering we had 6 young children in a lot of our shots (not an easy task to wrangle toddlers!!). I don't feel particularly comfortable in front of a camera, but the Wallers made me feel so relaxed. They have such a wonderful way about them. Cannot recommend them enough!

Waller Weddings are wonderful!

I just want to say the we hit the wedding photography lotto when we hired Justin for my son's wedding. He was so professional and took photos that could appear in a wedding magazine. What a genuine person. I can honestly say the day would not have been the same with someone else. Thank you so much Justin for the great work you did. You will always be my go-to for any photography I ever need again.

SO fun and great!!!

We got a photo booth from Waller photos for our wedding and they were amazing! They brought some props which were super fun and they had a really nice background! They also personalize the photos to say the bride and groom's names and the date. Everyone really enjoyed it, I highly recommend whether its for a wedding or just a party!

I don't think I can say enough good things about Dustin and Courtney. They are truly one of a kind. Their attention to details and the ability to capture a Bride in her essence is unparalleled. They are some of the kindest people I get to work with and I'm always so blessed when my Bridal Couples book them. Their value for their packages is second to none. You absolutely are booking one of the best when you book them.

We recently worked with Waller Weddings and were highly impressed with their work. Not only are they the sweetest husband wife team to work with, they had pictures up during the reception on their Mac for guests and the bride and groom to enjoy...definitely a special treat! Can't wait to work with them again!
