Kind and Talented Photogs Who Capture Moments and Emotions Beautifully
JULY 31 WEDDING CELEBRATION REVIEW
Kelsey and Talon are an absolute dream to work with! Being a photographer, I spent hours pouring over dozens of options for wedding photogs in the Austin area, and decided on Feather and Twine for their consistency in editing style, skill in taking both posed and organic portraits/event photography, and their film + digital hybrid approach. We ended up having to reschedule our originally planned wedding twice due to the pandemic, and Kelsey and Talon worked with us easily through all of that as well as documented our minimony we had on our original day with immediate family in June 2020. We finally had our big wedding celebration in July 2021 with the rest of our family and friends, and it was so fun to work with them again on this second special day. Kelsey and Talon make you feel like old friends and comfortably get you in poses while encouraging organic moments. My hats off to them for dealing with our large and numerous groupings for my extended family like pros as well. Wedding day schedules can be hectic, but they make them feel so breezy and keep you relaxed and having fun through the process. They are the best of the best, and you will be so lucky to have them as part of your team on your wedding day!
JUNE 6 2020 MINIMONY REVIEW
Kelsey and Talon are truly the dream team! I work full time as a photographer and videographer, so finding the right photographers was one of the highest priorities on my planning list. I was looking for someone who could capture the day in a documentary way -- getting those authentic moments as they happen -- while also having the skill to pose people and who had consistency in their editing style. Kelsey and Talon had all of that and more! (With the added bonus of being film/digital hybrid, giving you the best of both worlds in photography!)
Before we hired them, we got to meet with them in person and get to know them which was really nice to not only get to know their history in wedding photography but also get to know them as people. They also took them time to get to know more about us and what our vision for our wedding day was. We had an engagement session included in our wedding package and got to spend two hours wandering SoCo as we took photos, listened to music and chatted. They made us feel so at ease in front of the camera that it was like spending a morning hanging out with friends.
Kelsey and Talon are fantastic at communication and have always been quick to respond to email and texts. As COVID-19 became more serious in the states and restrictions were placed on gatherings, we started re-evaluating our wedding plans as our original date was 6/6/2020. Ultimately, we decided to still get married on our date with only immediate family present and reschedule our big celebration to a later, safer date for the rest of our family and friends to join us. It was a tough decision that not only affected us but also our vendors. Kelsey and Talon were so accommodating and encouraging through our replanning and rescheduling. Kelsey even took the time to talk to me on the phone about how I was feeling and processing everything -- just taking that moment to be human meant so much.
They were super flexible and were available to reschedule to our new date as well as be there for a few hours to document our original date. Kelsey worked with us to make a timeline for both days and gave us recommendations for local florists who could do a small order for our now-small ceremony and dinner. (We used their recommendation of The Farmer & I and Carrington was great as well!) On June 6, Kelsey and Talon showed up early and got straight to photographing, getting every little and big moment as they happened, details both big and small. Even at such a small gathering I was worried about running behind, but Kelsey and Talon’s calming presence reminded me to just be in the moment and enjoy it all! They gave posing direction while also giving us flexibility to move in other ways.
We received a very generous amount of wedding photos and we are simply in love with their work! They captured a range of emotions and moments so perfectly and with such authenticity that you feel like you are right there as you look at the pictures. The tones in their editing are bright yet soft in all the right ways, warm and natural, perfectly depicting the sunny summer evening we had.
I realize I basically just wrote a novel about Feather & Twine, but I could still go on and on singing their praises. Kelsey and Talon are not only incredible at what they do after years and years of hard work, they are truly two of the kindest, most thoughtful and wonderful people. My husband and I are looking forward to working with them again on our rescheduled wedding celebration date!
