My name is Travis Lawton and I'm a story teller. My photography journey started like many others starting as a hobby with a cheap camera shooting snapshots here and there and eventually worked it's way to creating a successful business that creates imagery with both technical perfection and emotional, story-telling abilities.

A wedding to me is not just a collection of pictures. It is a string of images, tying the day together in one nice little package. Your wedding is your story. We are built with an inherent need to pass down our stories and experiences to our children. My job is to create that story with rich detail and emotion that you can pass along.

From grabbing that early morning coffee to being sent off by your family and friends at the end of the night; My forte is telling that story and my medium for doing this is still photographs.

What's your story?

I don’t even know where to begin when describing our amazing experience with Travis. He flew to Maui for our wedding and captured the most amazing pictures that come to life every time I look back on them. The scenery was beautiful already, because it was Maui, but Travis made it look even more breathtaking than I thought imaginable. My husband and I both do not like our picture taken, and when we know it is being taken it makes us even more uncomfortable. We never felt this way with Travis. He had his own amazing ideas and poses already planned, but was also willing to listen if we had ideas. Travis also paid very close attention to all the details, shots of our wedding attire, rings, and the scenery. Most important to me however, was he was able to capture the raw emotion of the day in beautiful photos that I will forever cherish. I highly recommend Travis, as he is very professional but also takes the time to get to know the couple and the family for beautiful photographs.

We enjoyed working with Travis with our engagement and wedding photos. He listens to your ideas as well as coming up with his own ideas. His personality made it very easy to work with him. His style of photography was just what we were looking for, fun classy and creative. He went above and beyond our expectations. Even though our wedding is over, I enjoy looking at his photos of other weddings and his videography is amazing. He puts a lot of thought and detail in his projects and that's what you want when creating memories to last a lifetime. I hope you choose him for your wedding or any other kind of special day because you won't be disappointed.

We hired Travis after he photographed my best friends wedding. He went above and beyond my expectations in every category. Professional, quick to reply - AWESOME photos!, accommodating, and definitely worth every penny! He worked with us on finding a good day and time to capture our engagement photos (which were included in the package) in the setting we wanted (we got engaged in August, booked Travis in September and had our fall engagement photos taken in October!) He had me fill out a form of what types of photos (family, wedding party, getting ready, etc) were most important / we wanted a lot of. There was also a spot to list out what family photos we wanted (bride/groom/bride mom, bride/groom/groom mom and so on and so forth) so when it came time for family photos that went so quick and easy. He and my wedding coordinator made every picture I had hoped for happen and more. He worked well and profession with my videographer as well - which is pretty important since they are both trying to capture the every moment. Our evening ran a little later than planned but he still stayed a little longer than his contract to get our pics of our farewell. I would highly recommend Travis to anyone and everyone one! You will not be disappointed

My husband and I got married in September and absolutely loved having Travis as our photographer! He captured so many special moments and provided us with hundreds of beautiful photos. On the day of our wedding Travis did an amazing job telling us how to pose and he made everything incredibly easy on such a crazy day! We highly recommend Travis as a wedding photographer!

Travis recently was our videographer for our wedding, and we absolutely loved working with him! We could tell from the first meeting that he was going to be great to work with. When we received both our teaser video and the full video, we watched them on repeat :) We have received so many compliments from family and friends! Travis's videos captured the emotion of our day perfectly!

Remarkable.
Choosing Travis was the best decision we made surrounding our whole event- Besides each other, of course! He pays attention to detail and professionalism.
One of my favorite things about having used Travis is how thoughtful he is with many special touches. Just before the wedding Travis sent us a beautiful letter with a coffee gift card, asking Don and I to take an hour to ourselves, just to be together, enjoy each other, and NOT talk about the wedding. During that time, we needed an excuse to just be together. THEN! After the wedding we had another surprise in the mail. Travis had some of his favorite shots from our wedding printed and put into a handmade hinged wooden box with our initials carved in the lid! You guys… I said he HANDMADE A WOODEN BOX! I mean, ?? I don’t even have words for how meaningful that was to us!
Both our engagement photos and wedding photos were back to us before the deadline Travis had placed and they were breathtaking. I have never been captured so well in my life. His professionalism and service was above and beyond my best expectations. My Maid of Honor is using him as her photographer for her wedding in August. Book Travis. Everything about your wedding is fleeting except for your marriage and your photographs. Make sure that you choose a photographer that can preserve your memories perfectly and show the legacy of your wedding. Travis does that. You will not regret booking him.

After meeting with Travis for the first time, my husband and I knew that he would be a great photographer to work with! He was very professional and detail-oriented about his work during the meeting. He demonstrated the upmost concern for the quality of his photos and final album product. We really appreciated Travis’s flexibility when communicating and planning photo shoots with us. He was very organized when preparing for wedding day photos and he ensured that we had all the special shots that we wanted.

On the day of the wedding, Travis made it possible to capture “getting ready” photos of my husband and I even though we were at different locations (which turned out really amazing!). I had an unfortunate make-up artist blunder on the wedding day causing me to arrive later than planned to the venue, however, Travis was able to get all the important shots and then some, even with the time crunch! He was rushing around the venue and worked very hard to get amazing photos! My husband and I did not have to worry at all about our wedding photos turning out or not, and were able to just relax and enjoy our wedding day.

Travis also did an awesome job at sending back our final wedding photos quickly! We really love the Pass platform that Travis uses because it makes our wedding photos available on any device and stores them as well. It is very comforting to know that our wedding photos are backed up there as well as on our own computers. Overall, Travis did an incredible job from planning to shooting photos to delivering the final product! Everyone has commented on how he was so professional at the wedding and loved all of our photos!

The first time I met Travis was after I had seen him work at a friend’s wedding and later at my brother’s wedding. Next to the venue, getting a great photographer and videographer was the most important thing to me. I didn’t want to worry about anything throughout the planning process and on my big day.
When I got engaged, I researched multiple vendors and got comparison estimates from what Travis had quoted us. Some were lower and others were comparable. Ultimately, we decided to move forward with Travis due to our strong sense that he was going to be professional and reliable.
From the get-go, Travis offered to meet up with us for coffee and explain to us everything he does and how it would work. I really appreciated that the meeting was not rushed and he took time to get to know us personally so that he had our story in mind for our big day.
I really appreciated his communication skills as they were very clear. He was quick to respond to all phone calls and emails.
On the day of our wedding, Travis was the first outside vendor at our venue which I greatly appreciated. He was set up and ready to go. When he was working, everything felt seamless. I knew he was there but it felt like he wasn’t, in the sense that he was great at keeping off to the side and allow the day to unfold. I appreciated that he stayed until the end of the day and took a lot of footage.
The actual result was AMAZING! Travis was very talented at picking out the very most special moments in our day. He captured all the things that I would like to remember forever. All in all, professionalism, reliability and the end result were the main points that were necessary for us to be 100% satisfied and Travis delivered on all fronts! I would refer him to a friend or family member in a heartbeat
