From Our Couples
"We cannot say enough amazing things about Austin and Dara. They were there for us every step of the way and somehow managed to capture all the little moments we would have otherwise missed. We have been sharing our photos with everyone we know and have gotten nothing but rave reviews. We were overwhelmed with the level of care they put into everything. They are not just photographers — they are artists."
Sean & Paige
Married in Santa Barbara, CA
"Austin and Dara are incredible! They are so talented and their personalities make you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Our pictures were absolutely stunning and we had them back within a week. All of our friends and family keep commenting on how amazing our wedding photos are. We would recommend them to anyone!"
Aliyah & Richard
Married at Bacara Resort & Spa
"I don't even know where to begin. The photos are just breathtaking. Austin and Dara captured every single moment perfectly — not just the expected shots but all the tiny candid moments that I didn't even know were happening. Looking through our photos felt like reliving the entire day. We had them in our hands less than a week after the wedding. I'm still in shock at how fast and how beautiful."
Megan & Tyler
Married at El Capitan Canyon
"I can honestly say that Austin and Dara were hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. They made us feel like the only couple in the world. We barely noticed they were there and yet somehow they were everywhere. The photos tell a story — our story — better than we ever could. I've cried looking at them no less than a dozen times."
Kristina & James
Married at Dos Pueblos Ranch
"Austin & Dara — You are AWESOME!! The pictures are AMAZING... but perhaps we're biased. Perhaps the most beautiful we've ever seen! And how did you manage to make all of our friends look so fantastic? You are magic people. Thank you thank you thank you. Our friends keep asking who shot our wedding. We send them straight to you."
Jenny & Mark
Married in Montecito, CA
"Wow wow wow. What can we even say. You captured everything we felt and everything we hoped for. When we opened the gallery link the first time, we sat with a bottle of wine and just went through every single image. We couldn't stop. We're sharing them with absolutely everyone. This was the greatest gift you could have given us."

Married at Santa Barbara Courthouse
From Wedding Vendors
"I've worked alongside Austin and Dara at dozens of weddings and they are always, without exception, the most prepared, most professional, and most in-tune photographers I've ever shared a venue with. They know when to push and when to disappear. Couples are always thrilled."
Sarah Mitchell
Wedding Planner, Santa Barbara
"As a florist, I notice photographers more than most — they're everywhere during setup, during the ceremony, everywhere. Austin and Dara move through a venue like they belong there. They never knock over an arrangement, never get in anyone's way, and always know where the light is best. Their final images always do justice to the flowers in a way most photographers don't."
Amanda Torres
Floral Designer, Santa Barbara
"I've officiated hundreds of ceremonies and worked with many photographers. Austin and Dara are in a different category. They communicate beforehand, they respect the ceremony space, and they capture the emotional truth of what I'm doing in a way that is just remarkable. Every couple I've referred to them has come back and thanked me."
Rev. Patricia Wright
Wedding Officiant
From Parents
"As the mother of the bride, I was worried about everything. The photographer was at the top of that list — I've been to weddings where the photos came back six months later and half of them were blurry. Austin and Dara had our gallery ready in five days. Five days! And every single photo was more beautiful than the last. I cried for a week. Happy tears."
Carol W.
Mother of the Bride
"My son's wedding was the most important day of my life as a parent. I wanted every single second of it documented. Austin and Dara did exactly that — and more. They caught moments I didn't even know were happening. My husband and I look at these photos and feel like we're back in that room. There's no higher compliment I can give."
Patricia D.
Mother of the Groom
