Without hesitation we can say Penelope L’amore Photography was the best decision and investment we did for our wedding day. From the initial inquiry to the wedding album delivery, ...
Penelope was punctual, thorough, attentive, and most of all extremely comforting in an area of expertise that was out of our comfort zones. Penelope has a sense of calmness matched with her confidence that made us feel so at ease on our special day. We are so thankful we had Penelope for our wedding, we not only have the most special, beautiful and timeless photographs that we will treasure for the rest of our lives, but we have also gained a friend along the way. I am so grateful for everything Penelope has done for us. Truly could rave about Penelope, her work for days! We are so beyond thankful.
Penelope's photography style is elegant, classic, and all around just perfect! We were so excited to see all of the photos, and so impressed at how beautiful she made our day look....
I can re-live the day through the photos! She knew all the right shots to get, and really told a story with the way she took photos over the evening. She caught all of our most important moments, and even some fun surprises that she caught along the way.
Penelope was a delight to work with and really worked with us to make sure we got the pictures that we wanted. She was super accommodating and flexible with us, and she is one of t...
he friendliest people you'll meet. Very highly recommended!
Working with Penelope was simply amazing. My wife and I, like many others, had to postpone and reschedule/re-plan our wedding due to the pandemic. Penelope was right there with us ...
every step of the way. She brought calm and joy to what was a stressful process. On the wedding day itself, everyone commented on how at-ease she made people feel while taking our photos despite the humid and hot June Austin, TX weather. My wife and I were actually a little nervous about how the photos would turn out given the heat... However, we were absolutely blown away and ecstatic with how wonderful our photos turned out. The photos were very natural while still ensuring we looked our best. Asking Penelope to be a part of our big day was certainly one of our best decisions during the wedding planning process.
Penelope's work is stunning, she can make anything/anyone look beautiful! She is super easy to work with, she adds so much creativity and depth to the pictures with her skillset. S...
he was super helpful in planning our engagement session, patient with my bride-zilla self and overall really fun to work with! She captured our Indian wedding beautifully and i highly recommend her!
It was so amazing working with Penny. I had been on the search for a reputable photographer until I bumped into her Instagram page. I instantly fell in love with her amazing work....
She pays so much attention to detail. I knew photography was the most important thing for my wedding so I had to find the best photographer out there! I am so blessed that we were able to get her for our Engagement pictures and for our Wedding day! She really did an amazing job and she makes you feel so confident and comfortable in your own skin. I got married in the Catholic Church and the coordinator from the church told her that she wasn't able to go on certain areas of the church. I was devastated, I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to capture the most important reactions/moments of my special day, especially the one of my husbands reaction when I was walking down the aisle. I don't know how she did it to capture it but sure enough she did and it brought happy tears to my eyes. We can't thank you enough for the amazing pictures you delivered to us. Also, while at the Venue she wanted us to take pictures of what looked like dry bushes, I was kind of hesitant but I let her do her thing because I mean she's a professional and I trusted her work and she came out with the most amazing images in that bush! My favorite pictures were captured in that bush!! So guys, trust her, she knows what she's doing. I'm so sad that our wedding is over but I do hope that you get to capture more special moments for us. Thank you Penny, from the bottom of our hearts. We love you.
Penelope is an amazing photographer, but even more so, she is a kind, caring, and thoughtful person. From our very first conversation with her through our communications post-weddi...
ng I have always felt cared for on a personal level as well as a professional one. Penelope really takes the time to get to know you as individuals and as a couple and then works with you every step of the way to make sure you come away with the exact types of photos you want from your day :) We were planning from far away and Penelope worked with us to make sure we could get an engagement shoot in before our wedding which was such a blessing. Having that first shoot helped us all to get to know one another even better. Throughout that shoot and our whole wedding day Penelope just made us feel SO comfortable - even when taking pictures for a long time can be tiring or make you feel awkward at times haha. We had a blast working with her, and we are so incredibly pleased with our photos. She captured every moment we had hoped for and more and all of the photos came out beautifully. If you are looking for a kind, passionate, talented, and overall lovely photographer we couldn’t recommend her more highly!
It was such a pleasure working with Penelope! From the beginning she impressed us with her level of involvement. She happily recommended several photo locations in Austin, potentia...
l outfit ideas, and props. I must admit, we were nervous about creating genuine poses during this shoot. Penelope quickly put us at ease with her warm personality and desired posing suggestions. She clearly is passionate about creating magical moments for her clients.
We challenged Penelope by requesting a family photo session with our two dogs. She was very attentive, patient, and kind. Her talent speaks for itself. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Penelope and look forward to working with her again in the future. I, without a doubt, would highly recommend this amazing photographer. Thank you, Penelope! I will forever cherish our photos.

Penny is truly an amazing photographer. The amount of patience she had with making sure every part of our shoot was done correctly and to our liking was second to none. I really ...
like how much input she allowed us to have while also making sure our dreams for engagement photos came true exponentially better than we could’ve hoped for. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for the perfect shot.
I absolutely adored Penelope while she took my pictures!! I felt at home with her sweet gentle & spirit. Her style is precious, and I especially love the clean and refreshing l...
ook of her work. She is fabulous, and would love to have her as a photographer for future occasions❤
I want to start off by saying anytime I hear of a newly engaged couple or a one that is soon to be married I recommend to Penny. Even if they don’t ask me, they must know Penny is...
always the girl for this job! She’s outstandingly talented at her craft. She puts so much love and passion in to making your most precious moments into keepsakes you’ll want to flaunt to everyone. When it came to my engagement shoot, my future hubby at the time knew exactly who to call. I’ve only ever trusted Penny to take my pictures. I’ve seen her at work and the girl has a drive for perfection like nothing I’ve ever seen before, she’ll go above and beyond your expectations! I absolutely adored all of my engagement pictures! I will treasure them forever! Seriously, you need to book her today!
I was very happy with everything she did for my son and my daughter-in-law they enjoyed all the photo shot it was very Beautiful very organized and very very Professional.
She was amazing! The pictures turned out beautifully and exactly what I hoped they would look like. She was a joy to work with!

rtise whenever we needed. I would highly recommend Penelope if you want beautiful photos and a stress-free wedding day!
Penelope is just great. She was referred to me by a photographer who was referred to me by a friend, so in the end I was kind of basing my decision from her website alone. Which is...
phenomenal! She went above and beyond by traveling over 3 hrs to our destination wedding. I didn’t meet Penelope until the morning of our wedding and only after 20min of shooting with her I could’ve cried with happiness. Her emails leading up to the wedding were so helpful and she even provided a guided timeline for the entire day. Although we booked her over 9months in advance her communication skills were outstanding and she answered all our questionsand which gave us peace of mind. Once she told me what she had in mind I knew our wedding photos would be unique and memorable but they were so much more than that. She captured such an intimate and tear worthy moment the first time my husband saw me on my wedding day. If I had four words to describe Penelope L’amore: Professional, talented, kind and patient.
It was a pleasure working with Penelope. She is very professional and flexible. She gave sense of direction on how to stand/pose and made the whole process easier and fun! The fina...

uper sweet and makes you feel very comfortable. She works her magic behind the lens and produces the most amazing and beautiful photos that you will cherish for a lifetime. I would recommend her to all my family and friends!
Working with Penny was such a wonderful, stress free experience! She has such a passion and creativity that she translates into beautiful photos and memories that will last us for...
ever!
From the first reach out communication was top notch. It was clear that our vision for the day was going to be the her focus as well. She really helped us translate our ideas into specific moments that could be captured, and having so much experience herself she was ready to offer customized ideas and provide lots of useful tips! We got a few "sneak peak" photos just days after our wedding and our full album was ready ahead of schedule. We're so pleased with our photos and love the memories we have of our special day, including our wonderful thoughtful photographer!
Penelope was such a joy to work with! She is very personable and extremely talented. Our original photographer fell through 1 month before our wedding, and Penelope came to the res...
cue. She is very sweet and truly cares about making her clients happy. She got our photos back to us quickly, and viewing the album felt like reliving our wedding day all over again. She was able to capture every special moment and the beautiful little details of our wedding as well. We love our photos and would highly recommend Penelope L'amore Photography to anyone getting married!
Penelope was referred to me from a mutual friend and Penelope was beyond amazing! From the first email to getting my pictures she was always quick to respond and profesional. The d...
ay of our wedding she was on time and prepared with extra time lines for any other vendors who needed it. She worked great with videographer as well! She was happy and willing to take all pictures I requested last minute. When we got our pictures the WHOLE family was blown away by the quality of her pictures. My husband said we looked liked a picture out of a magazine. We are happy we picked Penelope for our wedding and would recommend her for any special occasion. You won't regret it! I know we didn't.
Thanks to Penny we are able to experience our wedding day every time we look through the beautiful photos she captured. Even the moments we weren't able to catch on our actual wedd...
ing day. Both me and my husband are camera shy, but Penny made us both feel like we've known her all our lives. We were able to start our first day as husband and wife together without any worries and completely stuck in the moment of getting to live the rest of our days with each other! Which was possible thanks to the professionalism and positive attitude Penny displayed throughout the day, and especially during the family photos. She knew how to make everyone feel comfortable and handle any situation we threw at her. We are truly happy with her hard work, and support we received throughout our engagement, and wedding day. As well as the beautiful memories we get to keep! Without a doubt Penny has"Mad SKILLZ"!
Penelope photographed my wedding in January 2016. The pictures turned out beautiful. She gave us a lot of insight into the wedding procession and helped us set a schedule that was ...
easy to follow. She gave us beautiful pictures and stayed a while into the evening giving us awesome reception pictures as well. She is very detailed and organized. Penelope has given us photos that we will cherish for a lifetime! She did an amazing job! I highly recommend her services to anybody who is looking for a photographer! The only regret I have is that it took me so long to write this review!
Penelope did an amazing job on my engagement photos. She had a lot of great ideas and really took in account the surroundings. She took the ideas I had and helped recreate them wit...
h her own twist. I am a very awkward photo taker but she was patient and made me feel at ease. I had seen her work and loved her style and attention to details. I would love to work with her again!
We hired Penelope for our wedding pictures. She did really well despite the limited time frame we gave her to work with us. All the pictures look very professional. She Skype calle...
d us before the day of the photo-shoot to set everything up. This was a very nice touch to her services because she makes sure everything is right and how we want it to be.
While in the ceremony she captured the essence of the celebration. Interestingly we may have not noticed her much during the event but even then she managed to photograph all the important moments we wanted for our album. She has professional equipment and she’ll tell you how to pose for pictures that way you always look good.
If you want a professional photographer with a lot of experience and really good photography skills there’s no doubt she does a great job.
I found Penelope through Instagram, and thank goodness!!! She was amazing, she was so helpful from the beginning with all our questions (even ones we didn't know we had). She was...
so helpful meeting with us before the wedding to go over everything we wanted. She also met us another time at the venue and really helped me come up with other ideas for the ceremony and reception. She was very gracious with our pastor and family! The pictures are better then we could have ever asked and we are so grateful she was able to capture these moments we will cherish forever!!
Thank you so much Penelope!!
Penelope was the photographer for my friend's wedding in Colorado Springs. She did an outstanding job! I came to do the hair and makeup, and when she was taking pictures during the...
run threw and the day of, she was amazing! She took many beautiful shots of the bride and the girls. Also, she was very considerate of personal space of everyone involved. And our work space too ?!
