She has a vast knowledge and experience, from permits needed to passport information to confidential licenses. She went out of her way to explain the why's and how's. I felt completely at ease that the information she provided was accurate, and to benefit our ceremony went as smoothly as it could...and it did! She kept in touch about once a month and asked information to avoid problems and last minute/costly mistakes with paperwork. Gave us valuable information about traffic times and such towards the location we chose and honestly, did an INCREDIBLE job in the ceremony. My parents and guests were VERY impressed by her and all had wonderful things to say. We were SO LUCKY to have found her services; I wouldn't change a THING about our ceremony! So lovely I would book her again in a heartbeat, and YES I have recommended her to friends and friends of friends already.

She then uses these details to create the most personal and touching ceremony for the wedding day. Lorelei is confident, warm, and friendly; she displayed such a warm and endearing presence at our ceremony that everyone admired. She had the whole audience captivated and in tears (the good kind) throughout our entire ceremony. We were so grateful to have the personal touches she added to the ceremony. We have had so many compliments about her and continue to do so even months after the wedding date. Lorelei is incredible at what she does.

Truly, I cannot even begin to say how wonderful Fr Jef is…read more I contacted him years ago to officiate our wedding and unfortunately he was booked that day, but then COVID happened and pushed everything back of course. He was available for our second date of choice, but then that got pushed back too so we tried a third time. We spoke over text/email, and I felt a connection. That connection grew stronger when we spoke briefly on the telephone, but once we met Fr Jef in person, I had zero doubt that he was the officiant for us. He is kind, caring, has a tangible warmth, and above all is just a terrific person. He is professional but still can absolutely joke around and have a great time. He is also absolutely hilarious. His attention to detail is second to none. I am not sure what his middle name actually is, but my guess would be punctual because he is NEVER not on time which is obviously fantastic. He put our minds at ease, and we just felt safe and secure in his presence. The speech he wrote for us at our wedding was simultaneously beautiful, touching, and downright funny. I could tell everyone in attendance LOVED him. But above all, I love him. He is the right man for the job and makes every single couple feel so special on their big day. After the ceremony, I had probably 10 different people come up to me and say how wonderful they thought Fr Jef was. I said well of course he is - he's Fr Jef Johnson for crying out loud! They of course asked where I had found him, and I said that he had officiated my cousin's wedding in 2016, but I am assuming if you are reading this review right now then that means you are looking for someone to look out for you on your wedding day. Well let me tell you this: look no further. You've found the officiant for you, and it's Fr Jef. Thank you for everything, Jef! We couldn't be happier with our decision.

Fr Jef was the best officiant ever! We met him for the first time in person on our wedding day and…read moreeveryone thought he knew us for years!! He made our ceremony so personal and extra special. We could not be happier with the process leading up to the ceremony and with the ceremony itself! He was professional, hilarious, and went above and beyond for our wedding ceremony. He exceeded our expectations. 10/10 would recommend!

The first thing that drew me to Nicole was her editing style. When looking at other people's…read morewedding photos I knew I was drawn to a specific style of editing and Nicole fit that bill. The first time we met to discuss quotes I felt like I had known her forever. She is such a sweet soul and is amazing at what she does. Her pricing was lower than most in the area, but her quality surpasses most everyone. So far I have only received my 'sneak peeks' back and they are SPECTACULAR!!! I am dying to see the rest. They are light and airy without being overly brightened and they editing is perfect. She was perfect to snap the pictures that mattered most to me as well as ones I would have never thought to ask for. If you need a wedding photographer Nicole Ryan Photography is the way to go!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Nicole's work. We used her for our engagement photos, my…read morebridal portraits, and for our wedding. She was great to work with in so many ways - flexible in scheduling, open to our location ideas, straightforward about her pricing and what her packages included, always punctual - but best of all was how comfortable she made me and my husband feel in front of the camera. My husband is a very, very handsome man (I swear I'm only a little bit biased), but he did not know how to take a good photograph. Until Nicole came along, every photo I had of him his eyes were closed, or crossed, or his mouth was hanging open; he was just generally awkward in front of the camera. Nicole immediately put him at ease. Right from the start she had him cracking up laughing, relaxed and happy, and that definitely shows in our photos. That shoot was when we knew we had found the perfect person to work with. Most other vendors had a list of locations they shot at, and we wanted to do ours at the "til death do us part" mural downtown, and then at a carnival. Other photographers were incredibly hesitant - especially about shooting at night, at a carnival - but Nicole was game right away. She did an amazing job shooting us in a difficult situation, and her photos look great: beautiful, colorful, glowy carnival lights; romantic shots on the carousel and ferris wheel; even some really tough shots of us in the hall of mirrors! When it came time for my bridal portraits I was totally comfortable shooting with Nicole, but not quite comfortable with myself. Like 99% of brides, I was losing weight for the wedding, and wasn't where I wanted to be. I was so nervous that the photos would turn out terribly, that I would hate the way I looked and then start hating my dress and dreading the big day, but I shouldn't have been. Nicole was a great coach, talking me through poses, telling me to tilt my head this way, turn to the light that way, complimenting me, and just making me feel really confident. My bridal portraits turned out absolutely gorgeous. The day of our wedding, Nicole was a joy to have her around. Her enthusiasm was culpable, and she was friendly, upbeat, and sweet. Her photos of me getting ready are amazing - these were not shots that were important to me, but are now some of my favorites. She got great photos of my guests milling around before the ceremony, including some real stunners of my young nephews (the ring bearers). During the ceremony she somehow faded into the background while still getting great angles of me and my husband holding hands, exchanging rings and vows, laughing with each other and our wedding parties, and our friends and family surrounding us with love and warmth. After the ceremony she was a great marshall, getting those who needed to be in photos in and those who needed to get out of photos out - just one more thing that requires a huge amount of tact and delicacy that Nicole handled beautifully! She never misses a detail, down to our menus and guestbook at the reception, beautiful shots of my husband and I cutting the cake together, our guests laughing and talking, and makes everyone looks gorgeous. Her editing is superb, and her prices for prints, books, and DVDs are better than I've found by far. I really just can't say enough great things about Nicole. We can't wait for our next shoot with her - Christmas photos with our doggies. We've found a photographer for life!

My now husband and I really wanted someone from the…read morecommunity to officiate, and while everyone we spoke to from Central Ceremonies would have been a great fit, Kelly's energy really spoke to us from the beginning, and it feels really good to have that feeling affirmed after the wedding. Numerous people commented on how beautifully she spoke. Even as I was standing in front of everybody with tears in my eyes, I had a moment when I actually thought to myself, "Damn she is killing this." Even though I knew basically everything she was going to say ahead of time, I found myself ill-prepared for how much weight her words would have when she actually delivered them. My husband and I are delighted to have shared this special moment with her. It's almost a shame that we'll likely never need her services again!

We are so happy with Cam and would recommend him to anyone.

I am terribly tardy in writing a review for Andy... He and his camera have been with us through so…read moremany milestones at this point - engagement, wedding, maternity, newborn, and family photo shoots. At this point he's been photographing us for so many years that he's almost family. Having a photographer who both does amazing work and makes you feel comfortable is truly priceless. His photographs are always fantastic. He works with us to find beautiful locations, and gets the photos ready for us to download in a timely manner. Andy's always quick to lay in the dirt, climb a tree, jump up and down while singing like a fool to make the baby smile - whatever it takes to get the best photo possible. I really cannot recommend Andy highly enough, and I know that as long as we're in Austin, he's going to be our go-to photographer.

From beginning to end, Rev Sally was always there to communicate with me, even given the fact that…read moreI was planning a TX wedding from FL! She had the best pricing, and very flexible when we had to postpone the wedding for a year due to COVID. You can tell that she cares about the wedding itself and not just her ceremony, as she made sure to ask the colors and style of the wedding so she could dress accordingly. The ceremony she wrote was perfect, she took the time to ask what key words we wanted to include, sent me drafts asking if we wanted to make any changes, again, very communicative. She nailed it! Would highly recommend her to anyone getting married in the New Braunfels/San Antonio area :)
