Austin Trenholm Photographer | Reviews

Look no further and hire Austin!!! For starters, Austin was a breeze to deal with. He is super quick to respond, will give you vendor recommendations and make sure you have everything you need. On my wedding day, he showed up early, had hairspray, bobby pins, pasties and even put my veil on. Before we got to the venue he took on the role as a coordinator and my therapist (lol). In addition to all this ... we got our photos 5 days later and they are PERFECT. We look like we came out of a magazine. My bridal party, parents and guests were so impressed. I cannot recommend him enough, it’s evident he has so much experience and is best in his trade.

Listen, the quality of Austin's photos speaks for itself. What impressed me most about Austin is how comfortable he made me--and all our guests--on our wedding day. I am extremely camera shy, so I was looking for a photographer who felt like an old friend I could relax around. I had never met Austin in person before, but he immediately fit right in, joking around with my friends, fixing my mom's dress with a safety pin, and getting to know my family. He also knew when to capture candid moments and when to step in and give direction to get a better shot. If you are deciding between quality photographers and being at ease is an important consideration for you, choose Austin.

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our wedding! We met Austin in Florida almost two years ago when we were doing our engagement photos, and we knew we had to have him for our NY wedding. He is extremely personable and makes everyone feel comfortable. His photos are gorgeous and we are so happy with how they came out! Everyone that was part of the wedding was raving about him! He is truly the best!

Stop your photographer search right now and hire Austin! He is a pleasure to work with, and was an absolute superhero on the wedding day, knowing exactly where and when to do EVERYTHING! And his skills and talents and fantastic personality extend so far beyond his amazing photography! Keeping the bride (my daughter) relaxed and happy for the entire wedding day was such a blessing, and on top of that he ran the show for her huge bridal party and had the answers to everything! Austin is a very special find who gets our highest recommendation.

Hands down best vendor! I knew I wanted to splurge on photography because pictures last a life time, and Austin sure delivered! First, the pictures are absolutely beautiful! It’s not just the quality of the shoots, but also the personality and fine details the photographer brings to the table that you should consider. Austin knows how to make everyone feel comfortable and move at a pace which makes everything efficient and on time! He has everything on hand, knows how to bustle a dress, and knows how to coordinate a large wedding party when shooting! When we didn’t know how exactly to cut the cake, Austin literally stepped in and helped us LOL! Thank you Austin for being flexible about Covid, and shooting our engagement pics and wedding pics on Nov 5 2021 at La Playa Beach and Golf resort!

Austin is a motivated, prepared, professional who brings life to any shoot. He really goes above and beyond for his clients in work product but also by accommodation. Austins portfolio is a nice refresher. I loved seeing editorial, stylized photos among fresh, light and airy pictures. What really took the cake was Austin himself. He was just as excited about my engagement shoot looks as I was. I would highly recommend working with Austin. You will be in great hands!

Austin is hands down the best photographer you could ever imagine. He is extremely prepared, knowledgeable and will help you with just about anything you need on your wedding day. He has the best sense of humor and will help you feel comfortable and calm during a typically stressful day. He navigated my entire wedding day and made sure everything went seamless. I truly can’t recommend him enough. Thank you so so so much Austin!!!

Austin is by far the best photographer we ever had! We hired him for our engagement photo shoot and were so grateful he was available to do our wedding day early this month! If you want to look back at our wedding photos with a big smile on your face choose Austin! Austin's approach with his clients are to build a nice relationship and we love this! We felt so comfortable with him since we got a chance to meet him a couple years back. He made us laugh and was truly in my corner when I needed someone during the morning of the wedding. Simple things like opening my lipstick and not messing up my nails, to being prepared with a full wedding kit with safety pins for bridesmaid dresses or any mishaps that occurred, to asserting his opinion when we needed it most regarding my bridal bouquet. He is fantastic! We can't thank him enough for working with us and we look forward to hiring him in the future once we have kids and build our family! Thank you, Austin! We love our photos!

Austin is the most perfect photographer. Not only does he take amazing and beautiful pictures but he was also perfectly in tune with the day. He was truly always two steps ahead of schedule and even our wedding planner. He also thinks of everything and can do anything. He tied a complex bridesmaids dress, put in my veil, and even helped put a bandaid on my foot. He’s the perfect person to have as an important part of your wedding day. Everyone who interacted with him raves about how awesome he was. He made us feel comfortable and relaxed and is just generally great to be around. I cannot say enough things about how great Austin is! He is by far the best! Highly recommend!

We truly can’t say enough good things about Austin! From the moment he arrived to the last song of the night, Austin helped to make our wedding day perfect. He made us feel so comfortable (cracking jokes, having bobby pins in his camera bag to fix my hair, going on a hunt for our missing invites to photograph the flat lays) but also managed to so seamlessly fade into the crowd so that we completely forgot that we were being photographed. Best of all, he had over 1,700 absolutely amazing photos ready for us in less than two weeks! Of all of our vendors, he is at the very top of the list of who I will recommend to future brides!

When I first started out in our wedding planning journey, finding a photographer was a top priority. I knew the vision and the outcome of the photos we wanted, and seeing Austin's previous work pulled it all together for me. In my opinion, his photos are timeless - they will always be beautiful and truly capture and evoke emotion.  Finding someone who creates gorgeous photography is one thing, but also who makes you feel incredibly comfortable and can become a true friend during this process is a different level of skill. Austin is easy to talk to and makes being in front of the camera fun. We left our engagement shoot on cloud 9 and couldn't wait to "hang out" again with Austin for our wedding. Austin is top tier - did I mention this guy made it through a HURRICANE just days before our wedding and still somehow made it?! I couldn't believe I was getting phone calls from Austin while he was living through the hurricane, keeping me updated on his status and worst case scenario back up plans - he is a true professional. He booked at least 4-5 different flights out of different airports in Florida to make it to Boston, which he did!   On top of insanely gorgeous photos, we gained a new friend - if Austin is available for your date, hire him!! You will not be disappointed.

Is there any way I can give 10 stars??? Austin is not ‘just’ a photographer. He’s the uncle who knows how to speak to your flower girl and ring bearer so they smile at the camera. He’s the wedding planner who has hair pins to secure your veil, and scissors to cut off the dangling thread on your dress. He’s a friend who will politely tell your bridesmaid she is causing unnecessary stress (LOL). And DUH – he is the very BEST in the industry. We wanted to capture the moment & emotion from our wedding. That’s exactly the GIFT that Austin will show you. It’s as if he’s just an observer who happens to ALWAYS be there at the right moment, at the right time, in the perfect lighting and angle! And if you’re like me who is nervous about being in front of a camera, Austin will immediately make you feel comfortable – my tummy knots just melted away after our first exchange of ‘hello.’ I am STILL crying when looking through our wedding photos, and you will certainly know what I mean if you have the absolute pleasure of working with him.

If you are on the search for a wedding photographer I’ve got great news the search is over and you’ve found your guy. Austin turned out to be the wedding MVP. His skills as a photographer are second to none, and he was able to capture such amazing moments. His photos are not just pictures they are art, which the wife and I will proudly showcase around the house for the rest of our lives. What makes Austin so special isn’t just the final product. Austin truly cares about you, and wants you to not only have the best photos, but the best day and he goes out of his way to make that happen. Austin has a warm and vibrant personality that makes you feel calm and comfortable while around him. This ability to make you feel at ease really brought out the best in the photos. I am someone who does not like taking photos and as a result I don’t always get the best photos. Austin did not let that happen to me, he was so loose and calm and found ways to make us feel comfortable which resulted in some truly stunning photos. Austin’s calm demeanor was also amazing to be around on what is a pretty stressful day. His professionalism was outstanding as well, he solved some small problems such as a complicated bustle and tying the groomsmen’s bow ties which was 1000% not his responsibility, to some larger issues like communicating with the lighting vendor when he noticed the light colors weren’t in line with the theme my wife wanted. Austin is a one of kind photographer and person, you will not be disappointed by him. In fact, I can guarantee he will blow you away and you’ll find this review sold him short. Because it is impossible to put into words all the things he did for my wife and I as well as how good he made us feel on our day, Austin is a star and hiring him is a must.

I must admit, I've been putting off writing this because I don't know if I'll ever have the right words to describe our incredible experience with Austin. My husband and I first saw him in action at my brother- and sister-in-law's wedding in 2019, and his energy and attention to detail was (and is!) truly unmatched. His bag is akin to Mary Poppins's—he has an artillery of those must-have-but-of-course-didn't-remember-to-bring items that saved the day. And when we got engaged one year later, it wasn't even a question that he would be our photographer. From our engagement shoot to the rehearsal dinner and wedding day, Austin managed to capture it all while making us feel so comfortable and at ease. We are more camera-shy than most, but we felt like old pals within minutes. The laughs, the happy tears...everything. He is so much more than a photographer, too; when my mom was panic-watching videos of how to bustle my dress, he immediately got down (on the ground!) and figured it out. He was easily the best decision we made during our entire planning process, and I'm happy to call him a friend. Thank you for everything, Austin!
