    Captured our special day perfectly!

    Tara is THE BEST photographer hands down!! We met with a few photographers when we started planning our wedding and right from the start, Tara made us feel at ease. She brought a catalog of her services, her professional, organization made me feel at ease from the start. Especially bc I’m so OCD myself. Being so personable and kind made it so easy to go with her. The day of our wedding, her and her team were so amazing and captured our day beautifully! When we received our pictures, the link she shared made it easy and user friendly to look at each section of our special day. It was easy to look at and easy to purchase enlargements. Most of all, my husband and I loved loved the quality of the pictures and are so excited to plan out our wedding wall! Tara is the best photographer we have ever met and we have now adopted her as our family photographer and will not plan any special day without her there to capture it!

    The BEST photographer to work with!

    We highly recommend choosing Tara as your photographer! She is an absolute blessing to work with. Tara is very passionate about photography and it surely shows when you work with her and see the final products. From the engagement session, bridals, to our wedding day, she did an incredible job every step of the way and captured the most beautiful photos!
    We are forever grateful for our friendship and the wonderful experience we had working with Tara. She is so loving, sweet, and is extremely talented at what she does.

    Friendly and Professional

    We hired Tara for our daughter’s wedding and will definitely be using her for our other daughter’s wedding!!! Tara is an amazing photographer and human being. She and her assistant, Ashley, are both super personable, energetic, and a lot of fun! They made sure everyone was comfortable and relaxed during what is easily a stressful time. They were able to capture a beautiful day in our family’s life and we will forever treasure the photos.

    The best wedding (& wedding-related!) photographer!

    Tara was simply the best choice for our wedding photography. When it comes to quality, style, personality, attention, and value, we looked no further (after interviewing several others before her).

    We did engagements, bridal portraits, and wedding day photography with Tara and in every session we received so many beautiful shots with a variety of perspective. Neither of us had much experience with posing or professional photography, but Tara guided us through and gave us tips and direction throughout, but also let us be ourselves and captured us organically.

    We have always liked the “light and airy” look but also appreciate natural tones and color, which was hard to describe and find when on our vendor search. Tara’s style really allows for the natural beauty of the day, background, and subject without taking away by over-editing. All of our photos have a natural lightness and dreaminess to them.

    It was important that we would feel comfortable with our photographer knowing that we would be with them for the majority of our wedding day. After speaking with Tara on the phone and meeting her together in person during our first interaction, we knew she would be amazing to work with. My family and friends have commented multiple times on how sweet and fun she (and Ashley, her 2nd shooter on wedding day!) was and how much they enjoyed her personality.

    Her attention to detail and vision are also so evident! She used multiple lenses in the same shot to give us the different perspectives and saw the beauty so many different shots could offer. We also love that she captures the tiny, unique details in the architecture, nature, and jewelry that added to each session. Scrolling through our gallery displays how much effort she put into freeze-framing those moments for us.

    Lastly, her value is 10/10! She never made us feel rushed or cut short and we feel like we got so much from our package. The quality of her work is on par with other photographers that were double the cost and we feel that her packages all provided a lot more than the others we had looked into. It’s also important to note that she only books one wedding per weekend, which shows how much she focuses and gives her full attention to her work.

    We are so happy with Tara Williams Photography and hope to work with her again for couple/family sessions in the future!

    Amazing Experience!

    Finding a wedding photographer can be so stressful but as soon as I spoke to Tara, I knew she was the right choice for us! She was so friendly and up front about her services and cost. We met her in person for the first time when we did our engagement photos, and it was like hanging out with an old friend! She is the sweetest woman ever and once we got our pictures back; I was all the more confident in her abilities. Our wedding day, we got SO many compliments about Tara. She and her assistant photographer Ashley were great about wrangling everyone and making sure we got all the shots we wanted. Her calming presence made me feel so at ease and made the whole day that much better. As a plus size gal, I struggle with my confidence and self-image, but I can tell you, I loved EVERY single picture that Tara took of my husband and me. She and Ashley know just what angles and poses to use that make you look your best! The lighting was perfect in every shot. They are beautiful and I am so happy with how they turned out. I cannot recommend her enough and I promise if you choose her, it will be one of the best decisions you make for your wedding day!

    Amazing amazing amazing


    ***I’m going to start this with saying I wish I could rate MORE than 5 stars!!! *** Tara is the most talented human being ever. She was absolutely amazing at every single thing she did for us! We cancelled our destination wedding due to COVID and hired Tara a few months before our newly planned semi local wedding. She listened to me and went above and beyond what we ever expected! Tara and Ashley made our wedding day nothing short of AMAZING while making it SO fun. They are both so easy to get along with and made everything feel so seamless. If you are looking for a genuine, kind hearted and incredibly talented photographer then Tara is the one! I can’t wait use her every time we need a photographer in the future!❤️

    The Perfect Wedding photographer

    Tara was our fairy God mother!! My husband and I were a destination wedding couple that had to switch plans with COVID. We made the most of it and planned an intimate gathering that was most meaningful to us. Tara was so supportive the entire time, flexible and eager to be a part of our day. The day came and to my delight everything went according to plan. Tara even took extra time to capture all the precious details that meant a lot to me. Her lighthearted demeanor and smile kept us in an uplifted manner throughout the day (these vibes matter... take note for ANY of your vendors). Then came album delivery day - Tara captured our small intimate day in a way I couldn’t have even imagined!!! Her vision and photo aspects were jaw dropping. We’ve had just about every family member ask for a print. The time and care she put in was demonstrated in her not just taking the “obvious shots” —- that is the photographer you want. It’s the difference in wedding photography on your wall to ART on your wall!! We could not be happier and will definitely recommend her to anyone getting married.

    Trust me when I say Tara is the best!

    I knew exactly what kind of photos I wanted for my wedding and as soon as I met Tara and saw her photos I was HOOKED. She meets with you prior to engagement photos to get to know you and your fiancé a little more. She definitely made Robert and I feel so comfortable during our engagement session because we all know those can be “awkward” sometimes. She had us laughing and just being ourselves and our photos showed it. I had so many compliments on our photos and how they didn’t look staged and how we looked so comfortable with each other. I love that! Tara also did my bridal portraits and let me tell you I was OBSESSED. I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed having Tara by my side on our wedding day. She captured so many great memories (also had a second photographer who did amazing) and I absolutely love the way all our photos came out! Tara met with me after the wedding to help create the most perfect wedding album and I love that I have something to remind me of our wedding day. I love that we became friends through this whole process and can’t wait to have more photo sessions with the beautiful and talented Tara Williams! Hire her for your wedding and I promise you won’t regret it! ❤️

    Hire Tara, You Won't Regret It

    Tara is top notch. I had my engagement photos taken 3 times. 2 times prior to Tara and 1 time with Tara. My 2 prior experiences I will not discuss, but, I will say there were a multitude of reasons why I was not going to trust them to do my wedding photos.
    First, in my engagement session with Tara, she was warm and fun. She helped us pose is ways that featured my now husband and I. Also, my laughs, a lot of them were genuine because we were having a ball during the session with her. We got our photos back, and I knew she was the one I could trust to capture all the special moments on my special day.
    Second, Tara captured my wedding to be just as magical as I remember it being. The photos are timeless. The lighting is perfect. I am so dang happy with my wedding photos. Most of the time on my special day I was doing my thing and Tara was just capturing it all.
    If I had to choose a photographer again, I would choose Tara again. Next important photos I need, I will likely drive/fly so Tara can take my photos.
    P.S. In the picture I have included, my husband was stepping on my dress so I gave him a hip check. Tara caught my chuckle and his "ouch." Photo after photo, she got all of the special moments and I have my photos to remind me of them now.

    The BEST photographer in San Antonio!!

    Tara is the sweetest photographer who will immediately feel like an old friend. Not only did she capture INCREDIBLE photos both at the engagement session and the wedding day, but she also was the best hype gal a girl could ask for. She made the wedding day so fun and was so easy to work with! We are so thankful to have had the opportunity to work with her. Our wedding photos are hanging all over our new house!

    You need Tara Williams Photography in your life!

    Y'ALL! Where do I even start! Tara made our wedding experience - all of it, from our first meeting with her, to our engagement session with our sweet pup, to our Texas State session, to our wedding day - absolutely incredible. She is such a warm, bubbly person that really makes easing into pictures more comfortable. We felt so awkward taking pictures, but she makes it feel so effortless and gives tips that make your pictures outstanding! Not only is Tara an amazing photographer, but she is also a great friend. I also have to give a shoutout to her second shooter that was there for our wedding day, Ashley - so fun and fit right in with the crowd. LOVED have two people with knowledge taking shots all day. The turnaround time for all of our photo sessions was so quick! Tara was such a pleasure to work with, I cannot recommend her enough!!

    Couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

    When I first got engaged, the best advice I received was to hire a photographer you love because those pictures are what last forever, and hiring Tara was without a doubt one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Being a covid couple a lot of things changed throughout our planning process, and not only was Tara flexible and patient with us, she never lost her excitement for our wedding or her desire to make sure we had a great experience! My husband and I had so much fun taking our pictures, and I cherish the images and memories Tara was able to capture for us. I'm already planning on coming to Tara for future photo sessions, and would recommend her to anyone searching for a photographer!

    Great photographer

    Tara is a great talented photographer. I love her works and she has so much fun and creativity to work with. Her positive energy even makes my family love her as well. I’ve got lots of compliments of my pre wedding and wedding pictures. I am over the moon looking all my wedding pictures. For me, to have the right wedding photographer who understands what you want is as important as my wedding ring, and there i am so grateful to have Tara on my wedding day. I shared what i want, and she accommodated very well and she even gave me a massive surprise with my Swan 🦢 bride Portrait. Well done Tara.

    The Surians

    We met Tara at the Bridal Expo back in 2019 and were attracted to her personality and light/airy editing style! We booked her for our April 2020 wedding and had the pleasure of working with her for a total of 4 sessions since meeting her including our engagement session (included in our package), elopement ceremony (due to COVID we had a small elopement with just us, our pastor, then Tara and our musician as witnesses), wedding ceremony/reception, and lastly our family had a session with her for our annual portraits later in the year. Overall we had a good experience although there were some communication/scheduling issues and slight inconsistency in photos throughout the four sessions. At the end of the day we were overall pleased with some of the photos we did receive in our galleries and enjoyed working with Tara on numerous occasions!
