I met Bill, Karen and Allie at the Bridal Extravaganza and immediately knew they were my top choice for photography. They were so warm and kind, knowledgeable and available on our wedding day! My husband went with me to the Peary's home because I wanted them to meet him as well and he thought they were great. He wasn't sure how much of our budget he wanted to spend on photography but he is so happy we chose Peary! We not only hired a professional photography team, we hired a team who we respected and trusted with our big day. Our family and friends loved the Peary's and the photos speak for themselves. Forever grateful!

Bill & Karen were amazing on our big day. When I talked to Bill when I was looking for someone to take on the task of photographing our wedding, I immediately felt at ease and confident in hiring Peary Photography/ATX Elopements for the job! Bill's expertise, passion, and warmth radiated through the phone. On the big day, that decision was validated when he and Karen arrived at the venue and immediately made me feel at ease and confident that everything was going to be perfect. I was blown away by how quickly we got our edited images back and the response from our friends and family has been amazing. I would highly recommend hiring Peary PhotographyATX Elopements for any type of session!

Peary Photography did an amazing job with our small wedding at Chapel Dulcinea. Bill and Karen Peary were superb at directing and guiding everyone through the whole process, and I seriously don't know what we would have done without them. Their rates were excellent for the work they did, and the photos were returned to us incredibly fast! All of our guests kept saying how awesome at officiating Karen was. Really, I would recommend them in a heartbeat to anyone getting married at Chapel D.

This is an incredible photography company that is run by the family. Allie, Bill, and Karen are all incredibly professional, responsive, and will make sure your day is memorable for all the good things a special day should be about. They offer more than just photography and videography, which I also recommend if you are considering eloping. Peary Photography was able to make a suggested photo of a bouquet become a reality with their own little flair that looked even better than the images I sent them. I also highly recommend Peary Photography if you are considering Chapel Dulcinea because of how many ceremonies and engagements they have photographed before. Both Bill and Karen have an eye for photography, they work together to ensure you get the best shots. They know how to pose you, they know what to have you do to make the photos more natural, they are very respectful and also funny, and they can see a scene and know exactly what look to go for. You have nothing to worry about when using Peary Photography. They will make sure your photos of your special day are everything you want, if not more. I cannot say enough good things about Peary Photography, other than I highly recommend. Please check out their portfolio and just see they are what you need! We also were fortunate enough to get our photos back in a very timely manner!

It’s been nearly a year since our wedding and even after revisiting our photos from our wedding last year we absolutely owed this team another giant thank you. They did an absolute wonderful job, overall. Very professional, organized, responsive, reasonable and extremely personable! Blessed to work with such wholesome folks who remained flexible and made our day fun and less stressful with their expertise. Thank you guys for capturing our genuine love for each other and for our family and friends!!💜💜

We had a small, intimate wedding and the photos were my top priority. I could not be happier with the day of or the communication of everyone at Peary. My photos turned out beautiful, they were exactly what I wanted.

We selected the All Inclusive Package with Bill and Karen Peary. Karen was our officiants, they took care of our flowers, light coordination, and our photography. Anytime we had questions prior to booking and after, they were very responsive and helpful.
They were a joy to work with and made the day go very smoothly. You could tell they have been working closely together for many years and truly love what they do.
We were married at Chapel Dulcinea and Bill even gave a nice history lesson of the Chapel and Wizard Academy! We really enjoyed how much he shared with us.
We would highly recommend Bill and Karen (aka ATX Elopements) for your big day or any other photography needs!

My wife Hilary and I had a totally awesome time working with Bill and Karen. They were helpful leading up to the wedding, helping us plan family photos at the cathedral, plan a post ceremony photo location, and then they went above and beyond at the reception, catching posed and candid photos of all our guests, not to mention all the beautiful photos of the ceremony and the bridal party getting ready.

They're value is unmatched, and there is zero sacrifice in quality. We can't wait to display our new photos! We had them for 7 hours on the day, and they were a joy the whole time. Thanks Peary family!

We are so incredibly happy with the work of Peary Photography (photography for engagement photoshoot, bridal photoshoot, and wedding day; videography for wedding day; coordination for wedding day).

For the photography, from our very first meeting, it was clear that Bill Peary is passionate about his craft and incredibly skilled. He went above and beyond to ensure that every shot was perfect for our engagement and bridal photoshoots and our wedding day. The end result was a stunning collection of photographs that truly tell the story of our love and wedding.

Bill's attention to detail, artistic eye, and ability to capture both perfect portraits and candid moments make him a truly talented photographer. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a wedding photographer. He exceeded all my expectations, and we are forever grateful for the memories he captured for us. We will treasure the photos our whole lives!

Not only did Bill capture stunning and beautiful photos of our special day, but he also had a very fast turn around time. We received the photos only several days after our wedding which was a pleasant surprise and allowed us to share our memories with family quickly. We especially really appreciated this fast turn around since my grandma, who was unable to attend the wedding due to her health, was able to enjoy seeing the photos before she sadly passed away only two weeks and a half after the wedding. I will always remember the smile on my grandma’s face and her joy as we showed her the stunning wedding photos.

For the wedding videography, we also appreciated how we received the sneak peak 1 min trailer earlier than we expected, and we were able to make a suggestion for a small edit to the video upon previewing it. We were pleasantly surprised at the crisp audio quality in the video since it was a very windy day. The editing style was very cinematic and made us feel special like we were in a movie. It was great how John, the videographer, captured the entirety of important events throughout the day. At first we chose the option for just the 7-8 min highlight video, but after our wedding day we realized we really wanted to be able to re-watch the entire ceremony, first dance, toasts in their entirety. It was a relief that we had the option to upgrade our video package to include the longer documentary video with all the important events.

For the wedding coordination, Karen Peary was absolutely fantastic. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make sure our special day was perfect. Not only was she incredibly organized and efficient, but she was also kind, friendly, and always willing to help with whatever we needed.

Karen’s attention to detail was impeccable, and she made sure that everything ran smoothly on our big day. Our wedding day was bizarrely very cold at 25 deg F, and our ceremony was at the outdoor Chapel Dulcinea. Karen was so helpful, prepared with hand warmers and an extra tissue, and was supportive in checking up on how we were doing in the cold.

We really appreciated Karen and Allie’s quick responses to our many questions before the wedding via email, and we appreciated the excel spreadsheet they sent which helped us organize the timeline and key details.

Overall, Peary Photography made our photoshoots and wedding day truly special, and we are sincerely grateful to them and highly recommend them!

We could not have chosen a better group of photographers if we tried.

We started the planning during COVID with no planner, my mom living out of town, as well as my future-mother-in-law, and my fiance in the oilfield. I just hopped on The Knot after hearing nothing but good things about it. We chose the Peary's because we loved their "About Us" blurbs and the photos in the gallery, along with the rave reviews from Karen and Old Glory Ranch.
We had to move our date due to personal reasons, and everyone was completely understanding, extremely helpful, and patient.

The day of just flowed so smoothly and we honestly did not even know Bill or Kim were there except the few times we'd catch them in the background or when we were doing group photos, as all the others were so natural.

When we got the link for our photos, we were in shock and awe wondering just how in the world they got some of the shots they captured, and the emotion was so real in them.

Everyone to this day continues to talk about how wonderful and relaxing the day was, and how pleasant the photographers were. Bill's humor kept everyone's nerves at bay, and Kim reassured me when I apologized for being "bossy" (it was unexpectedly hot) that "it was our day and we deserved to get the photos we wanted so we could remember the day and all of the memories that go along with it."

We cannot wait to continue to work with the Peary family and we recommend them 100%.
