The photos were like reliving the wedding

Justin did an AMAZING job with the photos for our wedding. I would say if you like a photojournalistic style, that would be the best way to describe our wedding photos, although he is good with posed/traditional as well. He did such a good job capturing all of these little moments from our wedding, it feels like going through the album is synonymous with reliving the day. He listened to what we wanted the day of, was very flexible with scheduling, and did a good job incorporating pre-wedding guidance. He captured the essence of us as a wedding couple and the bridal party with fun, silly, and spontaneous moments photographed. He also made us feel very comfortable and heard. I highly recommend Max Photography, we hired them as the most inexpensive vendor recommendation for photographers and it was the best decision we made.

Amazing photos/great experience!

Justin was so kind, considerate, and thoughtful while working with us at our intimate wedding. Not only did our pics turn out unbelievable, but it really felt like having a friend taking our special pics. Hands down the best purchase and experience & I would 100% use Max Photography if you have the opportunity.

Couldn't Ask For Better!

Working with Max Photography, with Justin as our main photographer and contact, was the best decision that I made for our wedding reception. He was super responsive to all of my questions and flexible to allow me to add a photo booth close to the actual date (which was a hit!) - that was all before the day. On the day of the reception, they were super friendly, full of laughs to set us at ease, and blended right in with our celebration! The gallery of photos that we received are amazing - I am blown away at how he could capture the subtle moments, while also capturing the energetic chaos as the night continued. Do not hesitate to book Max Photography - I would book him again in a heartbeat!

Best Photographer in Austin

My fiancee planned our proposal to occur on our vacation to Austin. He found Justin through Google Search and was not disappointed. Justin was extremely communicative, helpful, informative, and overall an amazing person to work with.

On top of being a fantastic person to collaborate work with, he is a WIZARD with his cameras. He secretly captured the moment of engagement with expertise. Through his photos, the joy from those moments will be captured forever.

Justin was incredibly professional during the planned portion of the engagement shoot. He was able to direct and pose us without it feeling awkward or forced (which for me is an incredible feat). He was patient, kind, warm, and creative with his shots.

We are so grateful for everything Justin did. If you want to have the most fun and beautiful shoot, hire Max Photography.

Amazing Photographer!

Justin photographed our proposal and was absolutely amazing to work with. The photo's are next level gorgeous, had an uncanny ability to perfectly capture the feeling of the moment. He was familiar with the venue and was helpful with the process, even outside the photography. Great communication and lots of industry knowledge and resources. Would 100% recommend Max Photography.

Engagement Pictures - Austin

The entire experience with Justin from 'Max Photography' was off the charts. Starting with the planning of location, which Justin helped immensely by making suggestions and sending pictures of different places. He also replied to all my texts and emails promptly, including the minutes right before the proposal. The actual proposal moment was also amazing. Justin made sure that my fiancé and I were extremely comfortable during our session, not to mention that the pictures are stunning. Justin was a 10 out of 10!

Perfect! Beautiful pictures!

Justin came out to the venue, we scouted spots for pictures and he really took the time to listen to what I wanted and really came through. He captured exactly what I had envisioned and the pictures were beautiful. We also used him for the photo booth as well and loved it. The price can not be beat for what we got! If there is every a need for me to have a photographer again I’m calling him immediately!!

What would we have done without you?! Seriously...

I give my highest recommendation to Max Photography. With only 40 guests at my wedding, I thought I could skip on a coordinator and manage things on my own... wrong! I showed up to my venue nervous and totally overwhelmed. Justin and his assistant Suzanne were already on-site and they jumped right in to save me. Suzanne was like an old friend, making me laugh and fluffing me up, and she helped tremendously in keeping me in the moment. Meanwhile, Justin is with the fellas, literally giving my soon-to-be husband the dress shirt off his back when he forgot it at home! They were swift and unintrusive during the ceremony, then funny and engaging for group shots afterward. When I got our photos back I was really touched. They captured the essence of every moment and each of my guests. I think they are particularly skilled at candid shots and artsy photo ops. Thank you 1000x, Max Photography, for contributing so much to our wedding and beautifully delivering the memories!

I did a wedding with Max Photography's photo booth. The guy built the photo booth himself, and it looks awesome. He brings great props for your guests to get a little crazy with the pictures. Nice guy, too.
