I cannot say enough great things about Cory Ryan! When planning our wedding the one recommendation I received from all my married friends was to not skimp on photography and I'm so glad I listened. My husband scoured through tons of Austin photographers' websites and was not impressed until he came across Cory Ryan Photography. She will commemorate your wedding day with the most beautiful photos possible and was such a pleasure to work with. If you are lucky enough for her to be available on your wedding date, do not hesitate to book her immediately!!

Cory was an absolute joy to work with: she was flexible, professional, creative, and very open to our ideas. Perhaps what was most amazing was that she made our wedding photo shoot a thoroughly enjoyable experience: her happy, open, and easy-going manner helped us just to relax and have fun. The resulting photographs, which she got to us in timely fashion, are just incredible - stylish, unique, and utterly evocative of a wonderful day. We could not recommend Cory more highly.

Cory is absolutely amazing. She is professional but also so enthusiastic to share in your day and capture your best moments. Her keen eye and use of light makes your photos gorgeous.

After the wedding she continued to be responsive, helping us get photo prints and make orders, etc. She makes you feel very taken care of from beginning to end.

Cory Ryan was simply amazing in every aspect of what she did at our wedding. She offered fantastic suggestions to us along the way, suggestions that ended up making all the difference in the world. She was responsive, flexible, punctual, and above all else, fun. We had FUN with Cory. Her photos reflect that. I cannot say enough good things about working with this wonderful professional. She was simply fantastic. She managed to take very candid photos without ever getting in anyone's way, without most people ever noticing that she was there. It was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend this woman for any function that you need documented. She was/is a pleasure to work with.

Cory was awesome! She managed the large group of family and the considerably long day with professionalism, an upbeat attitude and patience. We love all the photos we received and highly recommend her for your wedding photographer.

Cannot say enough great things about Cory! Our pictures are truly fantastic - we have hundreds and hundreds of beautiful reminders of our "big day" and the rehearsal dinner the night before - and she captured so many things that we missed! Really beautiful shots of our family and friends and all the little things that made our day special. A number of people have commented on how our photographer seemed to be "everywhere" all at once.

We went into the wedding wanting a truly exceptional photographer because the photos are one piece that can be treasured for a lifetime (or longer), and we got that with Cory! She was personable, flexible, had great ideas, was able to tell my now-husband to stop oversmiling in the nicest possible way (thanks, Cory) and really has given us a wonderful gift with her outstanding talent. I recommend Cory wholeheartedly!!

Cory did an amazing job photographing our wedding at Laguna Gloria in Austin, TX. #1: She is super professional. For example, we only booked her for 2 hours (b/c we eloped and married in a private ceremony). And, she was on time, efficient, and didn't dilly-dally with anything. She used the most of our 2 hours to capture as many shots as possible, and was on top of everything. She was also quick with email responses. ...Great overall "customer service" (if that's the right word for it). She's a real pro! #2: She is also innovative and helpful (not pushy) in offering advice and tips. For example, we planned to marry outside, but the pouring down rain caused us to move indoors and she knew exactly where we should stand to capture great light. Moreover, she was prepared with rain guards and an assistant if we did still want to marry outdoors. We came with giant clear umbrellas, so it was really our call and she was down for whatever we wanted instead of pushing us in one direction! AND- I'm glad we took her suggestions!!! #3: She has a great attitude, which makes all the difference. Photos are going to capture your mood!!! If you have an irritating photographer or someone who looks like they don't want to be there, or someone who isn't smiling, or looks stressed, or isnt personable, its going to come through in photos. She made it comfortable and easy. For example, she was all smiles when we pulled up and it really made me excited. She was positive and reassuring that our last minute change-of-location was going to look amazing- and she was right. I actually think the photos were better indoors. The pictures looked magical, which is exactly what I wanted. #4: Her photos are not boring wedding photos. I also love the coloring of her photos. They are bright and vivid. We love them! #5: I felt that she was easy to talk to and understanding. For example, when I explained what I wanted the photos to feel like, she was open-minded and and had a "yes we can do that" attitude. #6: She was grateful and appreciative for my business!! I will definitively book her again, probably when i get pregnant! :)

My wedding was made absolutely complete by having the most talented and personable photographer! Cory Ryan captured every moment and through her photographs I am now able to relive my wonderful memories by her amazing photographs. I am so pleased with every single photo she took, her color and lighting are amazing.

When hiring a photographer a lot of times people don't take into account that on your special day you will be spending a lot of time with that person so its imperative that your photographer is someone who can make you feel comfortable. Cory is such a sweet easy going gal, yet an extremely professional wedding photographer, with those two attributes you have yourself the most awesome wedding photographer!

I could not be more pleased with my choice as choosing Cory Ryan as my photographer!

I just received our wedding photos back from Cory and while sharing them the #1 phrase repeated by all my friends and family was, "Oh my gosh, Cory did an amazing job!!"

Her attention to detail really allowed the photos to tell the complete story of our wedding day from beginning to end. Throughout the entirety of the evening, I hardly noticed Cory but the photos appeared as if she were everywhere in the shadows.

Her candid shots are indescribable. She took shots of my grandmother (and many others) that put me in tears. Every single image is full of raw emotion and love.

The best wedding planning decision I made was picking Cory Ryan as our photographer. She truly is a blessing to work with and I can't wait to share our cherished memories with our children-to-be.

Cory is amazing. She is professional and fun to work with. She thinks outside of the box and helps you to stay organized in a time when things can get a little hectic. I also work in the wedding industry and have worked with many wedding professionals. She is the BEST of the BEST!! Oh and her photos are incredible. Tell her what you want and let her blow your mind!

Cory Ryan was amazing...not only is she absolutely lovely and super easy going but the photos she takes are breathtaking. The way she captured the colors and the spontaneous and special moments of our wedding day was so awesome. HIGHLY recommend her for any bride who wants unique (aka non boring) photos.

Cory was great to work with. She is easy going and professional. And most importantly to me, she was fun! When I first met with her she was even helpful with ideas on what to do with my ceremony, as I was undecided and stressed about it all! I didn't want too many posed pictures and I wanted a mixture of traditional and eclectic. I received exactly what I wanted. Thanks to Cory for making our wedding day photos easy.

Cory was just wonderful to work with and I think her photos speak for themselves! She was very prompt and professional and made sure that she took all the pictures I wanted and many more I didn't know I wanted :) I think you will find that she will be a lighthearted and fun element to your big day, and you will get some amazing images.

I have gotten tons of compliments on her photos, especially how beautifully color-saturated they are and how creative she is with composition. I got my edited DVD of all my photos in the mail quicker than I expected (about a week) and I loved the results. I had an extremely small wedding budget (about $4k total - my dress was $100 to give you an idea), and she was totally worth the cost.

I’ll tell you this- Cory is a creative photographer who is quite amiable. I shopped through many websites of wedding photographers and they were all the same to me. After seeing her site, it was important to work the budget to snag her… we are very VERY glad we did.

When you have a wedding, you hear that you will hardly experience anything you plan because it goes by so fast. You also hear that you will have hardly any time to be with you newly betrothed because so much will go on and so many people will be there… both, in my experience, were not true. I do chalk this up to hiring and working with Cory… let me explain:

Not only did she capture all the moments we had (planned and spontaneous), but also moments the guests experienced! Even if I wasn’t sitting at their tables or in a certain dance mob, I felt the life and energy through the photos she provided! Her photos showed all sides to the event! She didn’t miss a thing… Cory took my husband and I aside to take some couple pictures before the reception and after the ceremony... This was great. We basically had a sweet time just being together and away from it all. She just snapped away taking some wicked pictures as we enjoyed each other’s company. With her we didn’t miss a thing or each other.

Please enjoy this wonderful artist for your wedding photography.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE CORY RYAN PHOTOGRAPHY!! She is so much fun to work with and she definitely thinks outside the box. Her vibrant personality spills onto her photos. She was great to work with, and she puts you at ease. You will not be disappointed having her as your photographer!

Cory was the best photographer I could have ever had! She is absolutely amazing and worth every penny! She is very responsive and will do whatever it takes to make you happy. My pictures were ready within weeks and they are beautiful! We have gotten so many comments about them and everyone loves them! When my husband and I have children, I am having her shoot my baby pictures and family portraits!
