10/10 You should absolutely hire Southern Love Creative!

We had a small wedding ceremony and dinner party in San Antonio. Kendyll was so amazing to work with and made us (both generally awkward people) feel so at ease. We've since gotten so many compliments on our wedding photos and we will treasure them forever. Our album is a beautiful, authentic, little work of art.

Absolutely wonderful

My partner and I had our minimony (small courthouse wedding) photos taken by Nicole at Southern Love Creative, and I can't say enough about how wonderful the experience was with her and with the whole photography studio. In our initial calls and planning calls, she helped us think through the logistics of the day and what we wanted. And on the day of she was absolutely lovely - keeping up with our exhuberant nieces and nephews, our parents, and our siblings with ease. She even helped hold my partner's wallet and keys so his suit would look nice in the pictures! We just recieved the photos and are blown away - we absolutely loved them and treasure them so much. Her candid and journalistic approach makes you feel like you are really living the day again with us. Our only regret is we didn't book her for all our wedding events and have even more photos!

Recommend!

HIGHLY recommend! The editing of the pictures was perfectly documentary style, just what I had hoped for! The photographers are professional and very skilled. We are out of state clients, but I’m so happy with the experience we had, that I may travel for pictures again!

Our Best Decision for Unforgettable Memories

The photos that Laura and John are took for our one-year wedding anniversary party are AMAZING! We never doubted our choice on choosing Southern Love Creative as our wedding photographers but when we saw the pictures (and couldn't stop looking at them) it further confirmed we made the right call. They also exceeded our expectations on the quick turnaround!

Laura and John were absolutely lovely; they made us feel incredibly comfortable and we had a ton of fun with them! They had really cool ideas that we would have never have thought of and they captured our friends, family, and the spirit of our event perfectly. We look forward to cherishing the memories they helped eternalize for us for the years to come!

Laura at Southern Love: A Cinco de Mayo Elopement Dream

Laura at Southern Love Creative Photography is a magician with a camera. Her warmth and skill made our Cinco de Mayo elopement unforgettable. Despite our initial camera shyness, Laura's gentle guidance and enthusiasm put us at ease, capturing our love story with grace and sensitivity. From our small ceremony at 6th and Onion to the East Side photoshoot and dinner at De Nada with our favorite people, Laura was there, ensuring every moment was beautifully preserved. Her genuine passion and kindness shone through every moment, making her not just our photographer but a cherished part of our day. If you want someone to turn your elopement into a dream come true, Laura is the one.

Love is Love at Southern Love Creative

Southern Love Creative provided us with an extraordinary wedding photography experience that we will cherish forever. From the moment we first met Laura for our engagement session, it was clear we were in the hands of a professional that was passionate about her craft. She carried that momentum forward along with the rest of her team for our wedding day. Laura was always open to our ideas and made sure to include specific shots we wanted in the final product. Even though we knew a great deal of meticulous planning had been involved behind the scenes, the entire process felt incredibly candid and natural, allowing us to enjoy our day without feeling overly posed or pressured. The team’s professionalism also shone through in their seamless collaboration with our videographer and wedding coordinator. They were timely in delivering the final photos and the quality of the work was nothing short of exceptional - each image truly a work of art that perfectly captured the feel, aesthetic, and important moments of our day. We are beyond grateful for the beautiful memories from our wedding that Southern Love Creative has given us, and we cannot recommend them highly enough!

Best Austin Wedding Photographer!

We are so grateful to Laura and team for capturing our wedding day! From our very first meeting, she was an absolute joy to work with. Her enthusiasm and professionalism put us as ease, and she took the time to understand our vision for the day.
The result was a perfect blend of candid and staged shots. She scouted the best locations at the venue, and gave us great creative direction on how to pose - we are so excited about the final photos! Our wedding party and guests also loved the photos. Would highly recommend Laura and team for your wedding and/or engagement shoot! If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly skilled but also a pleasure to be around, Laura is your girl!

Best Photographer ever!

It’s been almost 6 months since we got married and I can safely say that time has in no way mellowed my appreciation for the fabulous work of Laura! Every step of the way she was warm, fun, insightful and incredibly generous with her time and energy. Her work speaks for itself, but I still have to add that our wedding photographs are better than we could have ever expected or dreamed of (direct quote from one of our guests – “They are the best wedding photos I’ve ever seen!!”). The style of her photography is simply stunning and she managed to snap every tiny detail of the day – she did not miss a moment and the end result is truly amazing photography that captures every emotion of the day beautifully. We can not thank Laura enough and we will forever cherish our pictures
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
