About

My philosophy goes beyond merely capturing perfect photographs; I focus on seizing real moments and emotions. This approach is all about the raw, unposed, candid shots that come off as natural, not forced, awkward, or stiff. My clients in Austin, many of whom have become friends, can attest to my knack for capturing authentic smiles, goofy expressions, and memorable group pictures in a timeless, cheerful style that’s a joy to revisit. Recognized as one of Austin's top wedding photographers, I pride myself on being flexible, friendly, and focused. With experience from over 800 weddings, I have honed my ability to anticipate my clients' needs before they even articulate them. My wedding photography service extends beyond just taking photos; I offer valuable wedding consulting and timeline planning advice to ensure the best lighting on your special day.

Unforgettable Wedding Photography Experience with JD

JD exceeded our expectations! Working with him was incredibly seamless, as he effortlessly captured the essence of our vision. His efficiency and expert direction left us truly impressed. In fact, several married couples expressed envy that they didn't have the privilege of his services at their weddings!!!!

JD is a Magic-Maker

JD is the ABSOLUTE BEST photographer you could book for your special day. You will not regret a single thing about booking with him. He was incredibly responsive, easy to work with, and an absolute joy. He was also incredibly professional, and he knew when to give my wedding planner a bit of a push to keep the big day organized and moving. He was a HUGE help. He also took the time to listen to me and my (now) husband about what we were looking for in our photos, and he captured everything we could have wanted. When I talked to him about my bridal portraits, he was very cool with some of my off the wall ideas, and he made me feel like a Queen (not to mention he was pumping beyonce through the studio speakers, which is always a win). Really though, JD was a lighthouse in the chaos of my wedding day. He was calm, cool, collected, and fun. He was zooming around the dancefloor with his other assistant making people laugh before he snapped some of the best candid photos of my family and best friends I have ever seen. I am continually getting comments about how lovely my wedding photos were, and that I "had to be a certain level of cool to pull that off," to which I have said, "No, my photographer is the cool one that pulled it off." JD is an artist, and I'm so happy that he was part of my special day.
