    5 STAR Superior

    Austyn was professional, talented and fun to work with. We have hired her for 3 separate events and have her booked for another in 2024.
    She photographed a surprise proposal, engagement photos and 3 graduates separate and together. In 2024 she will photograph our sons wedding. She captures everything we want so beautifully. She is quick with the turn around of getting the photo's to us. We are thrilled to have found an amazing photographer and highly recommend her to capture your special milestones.

    Your Photographer Search Ends at Austyn! She is the BEST!

    Where do I even start? Austyn is absolutely amazing. She does it all! She is, no question, the best photographer you will come across and you should probably book her before you even finish reading this review (not joking). That is how incredible this gal is.

    My husband found Austyn before he proposed to me because he knew how close I hold photos to my heart. We Facetime with Austyn after he proposed and that was the end of our search. Not only is her work amazing, she is just the sweetest soul. She was flexible, easy-going, professional and made all of our photoshoots feel natural. There is usually that awkward transition of figuring each other out but we did not feel that with Austyn.

    As we were faced with cancelling, rescheduling and the unknown of our wedding, Austyn stood with us the whole time. She supported us and even took the time to work non photography related tasks. She was our photographer, wedding planner and she truly cares for her clients beyond just being her client.

    The night of our wedding, she air dropped a gazillion photos to my phone as a massive sneak peak. Were they anything but breathtaking? They are beyond breathtaking and I continue to be amazed at Austyn's artist ability. We could not have picked a better person to capture our wedding day and I urge you to chose Austyn for your day as well.

    Best decision we’ve ever made

    We hired Austyn (and Brian) as the first photographers we spoke to during our search. The plan was to talk to a few photographers and then choose but after our original FaceTime conversation we couldn’t imagine partnering with anyone else. We chose the package that included both Austyn and Brian + an engagement shoot. Every step of the way we’ve been blown away with how amazing and acommodating Austyn has been. We hate having our pictures taken and I hardly noticed all of the pictures we got during our big day. Austyn added a (mega) sneek peek of our day onto her blog and I don’t think I’ve not looked at it multiple times a day since, such a special honeymoon treat. The pictures are beyond my wildest imagination. If you’re looking for THE best wedding photographer on the central coast do yourself a favor and hire Austyn and Brian. You won’t be disappointed, and you’ll probably walk away with a friend for life!

    The besssssssst photographer

    We could not be any happier with Austyn and Brian. They were the most incredible team to have as photographers at our wedding. Not only were our photos AMAZING, they were able to capture so many sweet moments that show how we feel about each other perfectly. Austyn has this calming presence that made us both feel 100% comfortable. Her energy is perfect for a high stress day like your wedding. I can't say enough nice things about them. If you want to see how amazing she and Brain are check out this blog post she did just a couple days after our wedding! Which was even more special getting to see so many great photos so quickly :)

    We literally could not be happier with choosing Austyn as our wedding photographer. She was friendly, professional, and went the extra mile! First off, we loved that she has a Colorado connection (we live in Colorado but I'm from California) - she even took the time to grab a beer and get to know us when she was visiting Colorado prior to our wedding.

    Austyn is radiant - you instantly feel comfortable around her and she genuinely wants to get to know you as a couple so she can authentically capture you on your special day. She had put together a really well organized questionnaire for us to fill out so we were all on the same page about what types of photos we wanted, what was really important to us, etc. The photos turned out even better than I could have imagined. She even sent us a wedding gift! We hope to continue a relationship with Austyn and hire her in the future. I'd recommend her to everyone!

    Austyn is the absolute best! Besides the fact that her photos are gorgeous, she loves what she does and makes the entire photo-taking process really fun. She appreciates love and loves to learn about the couples that she photographs. She does everything she can to capture her couples in their real personalities, and doesn't pose them awkwardly or take photos that don't represent the couples. For our wedding, she was super organized and very communicative. We did an engagement session and she took the photos on our day-of. My husband and I are usually pretty awkward in front of a camera, but Austyn made us feel really comfortable and our photos turned out beautifully. We treasure them so much. Austyn's services are also super affordable. She has several packages to choose from and offers extras, like more time or a personalized photo book. The best thing about Austyn was getting to know her. She's a wonderful person with so much appreciation for beauty and life, and it completely shows in her photos. Even my bridesmaids kept saying to me, "I want to be her friend! She's so awesome." I couldn't agree more. I am so thankful that we found Austyn and I highly, highly recommend her for wedding photography.

    I can’t say enough great things about Austyn! She is an extremely talented photographer and is tremendously easy to work with. My husband and I keep saying this - but we are so happy we found her to photograph our engagement shoot and wedding. She went above and beyond to create stunning photos. We had an idea while shooting that things would turn out great, but when we received our photos we were blown away. She captures moments that feel so genuine and sweet, and for a couple people who aren’t used to being in front of the camera, she made us feel incredibly at ease. She also surprised and delighted us by acting as our pseudo-coordinator; helping us pin boutonnieres, corralling family members for photos, and coming up with fun and creative ideas to showcase our decor. We loved having Austyn a part of our wedding and wish we had more events we could hire her for!! Thank you Austyn for everything you did for us - we feel like we gained new friends in you and Brian.

    Austyn's portfolio stood out for me during the online shopping process, and I was so elated she was available for my wedding date I did a little jig. (I planned things comparatively late for a bride.)

    Not only were the photos amazing (duh) but her process to help determine what your vision is is extremely thorough and thoughtful.

    What a privilege to have someone with so much talent document my wedding!

    I can not say enough great things about my experience with Austyn. She worked so hard to capture our essence as a couple and translated that into photos that we are going to cherish for the rest of our lives. Planning a wedding can be stressful and busy, but I can honestly say that she took stress involving our wedding photos out of the equation. She was prompt, helpful, creative, professional, yet very easy to be around. She fit into our wedding seamlessly without being overbearing and was able to provide us with photos that catalogued our perfect day. She was so much more than our photographer that day, and I can't thank her enough for that. I plan to use her services for every big milestone in the future!

    I really and truly cannot say enough good things about Austyn. She's professional and courteous but always very warm and friendly. I felt completely at ease with her after our first meeting. Her prices are reasonable and her flexibility with her packages can work with almost any budget. One of my favorite things about Austyn's photos is that they tell a story and each story is unique to every couple. All of our engagement/wedding photos are so "us". They perfectly captured the spirit of our relationship and our special day. She also has this amazing ability to make even the most camera shy of people feel comfortable with her taking their photos. My husband hates having his photo taken but he really liked Austyn and had zero complaints about her snapping tons of pics.
    Ever since our photos were put up on her site, I can't seem to stop looking at them. I love, love, love each and every one of them!!

    Austyn was an excellent photographer for our wedding back in August. She helped make us all feel very comfortable which in turn gave us beautiful pictures! For me, choosing Austyn was a no brainer, seeing her works for years. I love the photos she took and it gives us a wonderful view back to our very special day,

    Austyn was absolutely great to work with. Our photos turned out beautifully. I also felt like I got a lot with my package. I would definitely recommend Austyn.
    And just a general recommendation regarding photography for future brides; spend time looking at other wedding photography before your own. Make sure you get all the poses, combinations of people, and photos of miscellaneous wedding items and the venue as you want because you can't do it over!

    Austyn was such an amazing photographer! We had so many ups and downs the day of our wedding with people at the venue causing problems and rain storms but she handled everything beautifully and got amazing shots! She definitely went above and beyond to make our day special! Not to mention, she took the most incredible engagement pictures of us! I can't pick a favorite so we have a gallery of pictures gracing our walls! Thanks Austyn, you're amazing!! I can't wait to have anniversary pictures done!

    Where do I begin with how AWESOME Austyn is?!? She took both our engagement and wedding photos for us. She has such talent and uses her creative eye to capture all of the special moments in time in a magnificent way. Both the engagement and wedding photos she took are absolutely stunning and breathtaking!! When she is shooting the photos, she does it in a manner in which we felt very comfortable.

    Austyn’s photos captured the love and priceless special moments of our wedding and reception. Upon receiving both our engagement and wedding photos, they took our breath away and immediately brought tears to my eyes.
    I would highly recommend Austyn to anyone who is in need of a professional photographer who goes above and beyond!! She is such kind and an amazing person.

    Thank you, thank you, Austyn!! Our wedding wouldn’t have been the same without you there! You deserve and A+++!!!!

    My favorite thing about Austyn Elizabeth Photography was her knowledge of how the wedding setup and flow would work best to make the pictures the best quality possible. She worked with our coordinator to create the right "flow" and, ultimately, resulted in amazing pictures. This photographer is outstanding!

    Finding the "right" photographer--and having incredible photos--was my number one priority when it came to planning our wedding. Austyn was our first decision and we were blown away with the results. The resulting photographs of our engagement, our rehearsal, and the wedding are simply stunning. She truly captured the "spirit" of the day and the personalities of those attending. Her demeanor as she works puts you, your family and your guests at ease. Austyn Elizabeth Photography is now my go-to photographer from here on out!

    I was picky when it came to our photographer. I spent hours looking at different photographers online and when I discovered Austyn, I knew she was the one. We ended up flying her out to WI from Colorado and it was worth every bit of it. She was incredibly personal, professional, and fun. Besides a great personality, I was so impressed by the integrity she has in running her business: great communication, transparency, and honesty. If you are going to include someone on your wedding day, it should be Austyn. She has a way of making herself a part of the family. Since then, our friends who have seen our wedding pictures have been very impressed. I highly recommend Austyn as your photographer.

    My husband and I were told to prioritize the photographer when it came to our wedding. The pictures besides the memories are the one thing you walk away with from the wedding day. With that in mind we chose Austyn. We are beyond pleased with the pictures we received from her. Once I met her and her bubbly personality in person I knew we had picked the right photographer. She is a woman of excellence; her photography is excellent, her administrative skills are excellent, and her ability to capture the couple according to their personalities is excellent. I would highly recommend Austyn to anyone.

    Austyn did an AMAZING job capturing my wedding! Her personality and temperament created a calm, joyful, easy going atmosphere that made me feel comfortable in front of the camera! Which is incredible seeing as how we didn’t meet until the day of!! The photos she captured have blessed us so much. I can’t say enough good things!! Book her so your heart can be as full and content as mine. Oh - and she got our pictures to us within a week and a half.. what?!?! Amazing!!!

    Austyn creates the most magical pictures each and every time. My engagement pictures were stunning and I don't photograph well in my opinion, I can't wait to see what the wedding pictures will look like. Austyn is always very professional and has to be one of the most genuine person I have gotten the pleasure to have known. Austynis very creative and really knows what looks good in a picture whether it has to do with the background, lighting, props, positions, angles she knows it all!!! I would use her services again and again!!!!

    Best photographer ever!!!!!!! She did our engagement and our wedding photos which turned out so beautiful. I never knew I could actually be photogenic hahaha!!!! She is soo professional and knows what will look the best with the surroundings given to her. She was so understanding with some of the family dynamics and who couldn't be photographed with someone. Everything was organized and we were worried that with only 2 hours of shooting that it wouldn't be enough, and we actually had EXTRA TIME!!!!! I love my photos and will always remember that day, thank you Austyn!!

    I can't even begin to explain how amazing Austyn is. She was professional and sweet on our wedding day--adding her own fun, thoughtful and creative spin to our photos. The pictures are just breathtakingly beautiful. She captured moments that I will treasure forever. I am so glad that we chose Austyn to capture our day!

    Austyn is a rock star! We did our engagement pictures as well as our wedding picture with her and they are just amazing! Made us feel like we were in the fairy tail. She is very attentive to details but at the same time keeps pictures from looking staged. She has a unique talent for capturing the right moments and has a fantastic ability to tell the story of your wedding through her pictures.
