Austin Denis Photography

We hired Austin to be our photographer for our wedding. We had a small wedding of about 30 people. Since we decided not to do a videographer, Austin had a package that came with two photographers that we choose. Austin met with us multiple times the months leading up to the wedding to gather information he needed to do his job, and also gave us some advice for the wedding day. He is an extremely chill and nice person who really cares about you. The pictures came out great, and he was able to provide a few high quality pictures within 3 days of the wedding, and the enter collection was available online in a 5-6 weeks. We also paid to have him make an photo album, which he tailored to how we wanted it and it turned out awesome. Overall we had a great experience with Austin and we would recommend him to anyone.

We're from Canada and planned a fairly last minute small wedding in Palm Desert with Sam & Austin as our photographers. They were so easy to deal with. It was important to me to get all of the hi-res images and knew I would want to do my own print orders - all which was a non-issue with them. They had a great on-boarding process which made the day-of go seamlessly. I really enjoyed having the dual photographers so they could work together as well as split off when necessary. They were calm, funny, and high quality. Highly recommend.

Sam and Austin come very highly recommended from my wife and I. Perfect marks all around, and someone we would want to use for any future photo shoots. We have worked with them on three separate photo shoots: a traditional engagement photo shoot, a non-traditional outdoor beach elopement photo shoot, and a more traditional outdoor wedding ceremony and indoor reception photo shoot. The biggest highlights working with these amazing photographers are the quality of photos, their flexibility. Quality of photos - I was amazed with every set of photos Sam and Austin shot and edited. From each photo shoot, we had plenty of options to choose from for announcements/save the dates/invites/thank yous. We received plenty of compliments on how gorgeous our wedding photos turned out. Flexibility - Prior to 2020, we had worked with Sam and Austin on an engagement photo shoot and planned on a November 2020 Temecula wedding. Unfortunately, we had two different venue related cancellations. Following our second venue cancellation, we pivoted our plans to put together a micro wedding on the beach in 2020, with a larger wedding happening later on in 2021. Through all of this, Sam and Austin were very accommodating, and helpful in adjusting our contracts and dates. The day of each of our events it was awesome having Sam shooting the Bride’s side, Austin shooting the Groom’s side, and then both getting different perspectives of the actual ceremonies. Sam and Austin come super highly recommended for any kind of photography.

I'm a local wedding planner and I had the pleasure of working with Sam + Austin for a wedding this month. As a planner, I only want the best for my clients, so leading up to the wedding, I'm looking for vendors that are responsive to my emails and are easy and enjoyable to work with. Sam + Austin are both of those things, and much more! They were quick to address any emails from me leading up to the big day, which made my life so much easier because I didn't have to keep following up with them. Come wedding day, I had the pleasure of meeting and working alongside them, and they are just the sweetest! They work efficiently (again, a big bonus from a planner's perspective), they are communicative, and they have such big hearts for their couples. Take it from another professional in the industry...your wedding day is only as good as the team you have making it happen, and with Sam + Austin, you won't be disappointed.
