Monica did a wonderful job capturing my husband and I’s wedding day on 11/7/25. She put me at ease from the start and is a pleasure to work with. Her prices are very budget-friendl...
y. Monica was able to get all the shots I desired throughout the day (from getting ready at the salon, Catholic church ceremony and offsite indoor/outdoor reception) with no additional shooter needed! I would highly recommend Monica Salazar for your wedding or any other special event!
Monica is a wonderful photographer. I’m obsessed with the photos she captured on my wedding day (and during my bridal portraits in separate session). On the wedding day, she captu...
red EVERYTHING — wedding details, decor, guests, family, sweet candid moments of me and my husband during the first look, ceremony, and reception, and of course, the most iconic, gorgeous portraits of us too. She was very helpful in suggesting poses that looked natural and beautiful. Monica has a great eye for lighting and how to capture the beauty of a venue. She’s also great at capturing people — our wedding party included people of varying skin tones and she made everyone look good (ie no one was overexposed or underexposed). Monica and her team were so easy to work with and really listened to what my husband and I wanted (in terms of what we wanted captured or what poses we wanted to try), while also being attentive to our guests and capturing beautiful photos of them too. She was also very patient and has a calming presence. I would happily work with her again.
Omg!!!!!! Monica is the most persistent, on-time, patient, bubbly, trustworthy, etc... the list goes on. Our photo session was very beautiful, fun and exciting. She has so many uni...
que ideas and love what she does. Our pictures came out so beautiful and stunning. We were amazed at how many photos she captured of us. After looking at so many photographers online and coming across Monica, I knew she was the photographer I wanted. I researched for months guys and it paid off... I love this lady... If you are looking for someone to give you top notch, glamour photos, great ideas and understanding, go with Monica.. Thank you!!!!!
Recently celebrated the day my husband Norberto and I said, “I DO,” one year ago. As I look through our wedding photos, I thought I would formally thank our wedding photographer Mo...
nica Salazar. My then fiancée and I met Monica at the Irving Bridal Show back in 2015. She captured our ranch-themed wedding in October so beautifully, even with the elements of wind and rain that day. Monica was professional, scheduling a meet and greet, promptly responding to emails, and returning our finished photos earlier than expected. She was also instrumental in helping us find our videographer. Many of my family and friends living in Hawai'i could not make it to our wedding. However, I was able to share our memories by linking them to Monica’s creative photomontage and detailed blog of our wedding day.
As a bride, ideally I would've loved for our special day to go perfectly ( a lot didn't) but one thing was and will continue to be, my photos. Monica's gentle spirit made me feel a...
t ease, which can't be said for all photo sessions because many can be just straight awkward! As a photographer myself, I marvel at her work, and as a family we've agreed that she will continue to have Monica capture our memories.
We just started working with Monica for our March 2017 wedding and so far she has been fantastic to work with! I can't wait to update with more after the wedding. But she quickly...
replies to all my endless emails about every little detail :) Her quality of work, creativity, personalized services and attention stood out to me and my fiance and is why we ultimately chose to work with Monica over others. It is obvious in her work that she works hard to personalize each and every event and it is so much more than just photos. We had our engagement session last week and she was extremely patient and helpful with including our dog :) and with directing us and letting us have fun with it. The preview I have seen was gorgeous and I can't wait to see more. I am excited to keep working with Monica on our wedding and my fiance and I are already talking about booking annual sessions with her. She truly stands above the 24 others that I researched ;)
Monica Salazar Photography was such an amazing company to work with. We were so pleased with how both our engagement photos and wedding photos turned out. Monica puts her heart and...
soul in to what she does. She is full of vendor recommendations, always on time, professional, and most importantly extremely talented! Of all vendors used for our big day she comes with my highest recommendation.
Monica is amazing! I would definitely recommend her!
She was FANTASTIC!!! Without a doubt, she was wonderful. We had a very unique wedding--extremely small. And she caught all the best moments. She did our engagement photos, rehea...
rsal dinner photos, and our wedding photos. Absolutely lovely!!! You won't be disappointed :D
Monica's quality of work is great! You will not be disappointed. She's easy to get a hold of for any questions or concerns. We also used her photobooth at our wedding, which was a ...
big hit. We will likely use that service again for our next big event. We enjoyed working with her through our engagement pictures, Bridal Portraits, and day of wedding.
Monica Salazar and her husband are FANTASTIC photographers. From the beginning planning steps, to our engagement photo shoot, to our wedding day, we experienced FANTASTIC customer ...
service and professionalism. Under very unique circumstances, our wedding venue changed less than 48 hours before walking down the aisle, Monica became photographer, planner, and ANYTHING we needed! The day would not have been a success without her and her husband! An even better surprise-- she took videos throughout our event and we got to relive some of the best memories of our lives so far, unexpectedly! The quality of photographs, video, experience in general, and the ENTIRE process could not be matched and we are forever grateful for such lasting, fantastic memories to hold onto from our wedding process! Choose Monica as your photographer--- you will NOT be disappointed!!!
Monica was fantastic to work with and took beautiful pictures!
Monica was very nice. She made my fiancé and I feel very comfortable. Her packages are extremely fair. She charges 350 for a two hour session into 250 for a one hour session. Also ...
with each package you get a free 16 x 20 picture and you get all of your photos from your session at least the ones where your eyes are closed :)
I got some pretty ridiculous price quotes when looking around for photographers, but Monica was very reasonably priced and provides many hours of service and extras for her prices....
She is very friendly and I am quite pleased with the pictures I have seen so far. Everyone raved about our engagement photos which were also taken with her!
Monica was so kind and she was also very flexible with me and my hectic schedule. She made my very shy and quiet husband not so timid and nervous for our engagement pictures. She m...
ade my bridal portraits a very intimate and calming session which I very much appreciated. And my wedding day was so amazing, of all the crazy things going on that day I did not have to worry about the photography at all. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone :)
Monica did such a fantastic job on my portraits and wedding day. She is so sweet and easy to work with and she makes you feel comfortable. I enjoyed her and will recommend her.
Monica did an excellent job on the photography for my daughter's wedding. The photos are absolutely beautiful!
Monica did a great job on the photography for my wedding and bridal portraits. They turned out absolutely stunning. She was able to capture the "little moments" during the wedding ...

Wow, what a blessing it was to have Monica capture our "Best Day Ever". She truly captured everything my heart desired, from the joy on my face to the whispers in my ear from my hu...
sband. Everyone I have seen since then has asked me who my photographer was... I would HIGHLY recommend Monica Salazar and have decided to use her for all my photography needs moving forward. Monica is such a sweet, patient, and professional woman who's passion for art shines through her work. I relive my wedding day everything I look at my photos. Thank you Monica for blessing my life!
We had a roaring 20s inspired engagement session and had no clue what spots in DFW would be best for the style. Monica had just the place and the photos came out amazing and the ed...

I loved working with Monica. Out of all the people I worked with for my wedding she was the most helpful and responsive. She did not only help out with the photography portion of m...
y wedding, but also recommended a florist for me and gave me a list of caterers. I also loved that she had a photo booth. That was one of the things that I really wanted for my wedding and I was extremely happy that she offered it and at a great price! I would highly recommend anyone to use Monica. In fact, she will be taking our large family portraits in two weeks! I will continue to use her in the future.
From start to finish, our experience with Monica was nothing short of perfect. She provided a wonderful experience, stellar photographs, and met our expectations in every way. We h...
ighly recommend Monica to everyone who wants a worry free experience and truly beautiful engagement, bridal, and wedding photographs!

of our wedding day are beautiful. My husband and I are really happy with the way they turned out. Also, the Photo Booth is a wonderful addition to any event. My family and friends really enjoyed this at the reception. Their packages/pricing are just right. We got what we paid for and that was excellent service.
Monica is the best! She is so sweet and takes beautiful photos. My husband and I are camera shy, but our photos turned out so natural. We also hired her to take our engagement phot...

Monica is the best! She is very organized and creative. She had really great ideas and let our personalities shine through in every picture. I was pretty nervous about our engag...
ement pictures, because I hadn't had professional pictures taken like that since I was a kid. Monica made my fiancé and me feel comfortable and happy. We had our pictures at the Fort Worth Zoo, during Boo at the Zoo. It was so crowded, but you would never know from looking at the pictures! They were absolutely beautiful and I can't wait for Monica to take pictures at our wedding. I know if our engagement pictures are any indication, they are going to be out of this world.
Monica is a sweet and genuine person to work with! She'll be my wedding photographer and I'm excited that she'll be with me on my wedding day.
Monica was great!!! My husband and I lived 3 hours away from our destination wedding which was at The Ballpark in Arlington. Monica made it very simple for us and was extremely nic...

here were plenty of local photographers in Lubbock to choose from, we chose her and she traveled 5 hrs (from Grand Prairie) to capture our wedding. We were so grateful for that and glad we chose her to take our pictures.
We chose Monica for our engagement and wedding day photos and we could not have been happier. She takes amazing pictures and does a good job at making you feel at ease. We got so m...

Monica did a fantastic job on our wedding photos. They really came out looking more amazing than I thought they would. It was a great package as well that included our engagments, ...
bridals, photo both and wedding day coverage. It was actually the best package price I found when doing my research. Monica was very professional and was prompt when responding to any questions that I had. I would definitely reccomend her to any friends or brides that are looking for any type of photography services. She was worth it!
Monica is wonderful, and you will not be disappointed with your pictures.
Monica photographed our engagement, my bridals, and our wedding day! She did a great job, and we cannot t...
hank her enough.
She is sweet, kind, and professional. She always promptly responded to all of my calls and emails.
She was very flexible. We had two hours for our engagement picture session, and we told her that we wanted to photograph in 3-4 different locations. She had no problem with it, and she did not rush the session.
Pick Monica as your wedding photographer!
You're wedding isn't in Dallas? No big deal! She travels for destination weddings. :)
Monica is a wonderful photographer. She is calm, organized, and talented. One of the reasons I chose Monica was based on her available packages for wedding photography. She provi...
des you with a quick preview of your pictures as soon as she can. She is quick to respond to emails and is really easy to work with. She shot my bridal portraits at the Dallas Arboretum and they turned out beautiful. Our wedding party was large with a lot of sponsors and she made sure to capture every person involved in the wedding. She also made sure to take pictures of all the details in the wedding. I would recommend her for wedding photography.
Monica is an awesome photographer. She not only did our wedding, but our engagement photos as well. We love how they turned out! We also loved how she doesn't put a time-limit o...
n her services. We ran across a lot of photographers who have different packages that say "4 hours of photography on the wedding day" or whatever. Monica shows up when you want her to and doesn't leave till the event is finished. We also loved her prices, very affordable, and you get a lot even with her basic package (the one we purchased).
My one complaint would be that she is kind of on the quiet side. If you like to have the photographer tell you exactly what to do in each picture, she might not be a good match for you.
All in all I am very pleased with Monica's service. She is super sweet, a pleasure to work with, and definitely knows what she is doing behind a camera.
So I am someone that is extremely shy when it comes to the camera, non photogenic, and a control freak - a photographers worst nightmare probably. From the begining Monica was noth...
ing but courteous and professional. She met me at starbucks and took plenty of time answering all my questions and showing me her work. She didn't hound me to make a decision or to sign with her. She responded to my 100's of questions by email very promptly. Like most Indian events, my wedding was a 3 day event in Dallas and thus it was a lot of hours. She gave me a great price and I had full coverage for all my events. One of my events ran late by 45 minutes. I had her underbooked for only 30 minutes but she didn't mind the other 15 minutes. My final event ran over by almost an hour and she glady stayed even though she was running on her 6th or 7th hour of shooting. I havent seen all my pictures from the wedding yet but the ones I have seen are absolutely amazing. I never thought I would come looking so great in pictures, and the shots she captured were really artistic. I think I got a great deal with Monica and think shes truly talented. I didnt get a chance to work much with her husband (the 2nd photographer) so can't vouch for him but my husband worked with him and was truly thrilled with my decision to hire them .
Monica was such a delight to work with and offered incredible flexibilty. She made my family feel so comfortable and was such a professional. Amazing with the eye and was able to c...

Absolutely love Monica shes the best, my husband & I were so happy with her work. We found her at a Bridal expo and saw all her work. She is so great at what she does, shes cre...
ative and has wonderful ideas. My husband and I had our engagement pictures taken by her. We took two engagement sessions one at the Gaylord Texan and the other where my husband and i first meet our old high school. The pictures turned out marvelous. Monica is friendly, funny, and lovable she actually makes a friendship with her clients and is willing to take your call at all times, absolutely the best. I'm now waiting to see our wedding pictures I'm so anxious i can't wait to see the memories she captured.
After spending hours searching the internet for a photographer within my budget but with great quality, I finally found the perfect one. Monica's prices are very competitive and in...
cluded in her packages that start around $1500 are the following: 2 photographers, bridal portraits, engagement sessions, unlimited wedding day coverage, day after session, and various prints. She made my husband and I very comfortable in front of the camera and we have received numerous complements on the beautiful pictures. In fact, we are using one of our pictures for our thank you cards. Did I mention you get a CD with all the pictures taken?
