IN THEIR WORDS
RYAN & KELSEY
“When planning our wedding the most important thing to me was choosing the right photographer. As my husband would say, I am obsessed with pictures. We wanted to find someone we could trust that would produce beautiful work at the same time. Austin and Becca blew our expectations to say the least! They came to Chicago for our engagement session and it started pouring rain about an hour in. Instead of calling it a day and rescheduling, Austin thought we should take advantage of the weather and get some photos in the rain. All of us were soaked and Austin produced such unique/amazing photos.
Unlike most photographers, Austin sends all of your photos printed to you in a beautiful package. I was not expecting this at all and was blown away when I saw the presentation of our photos. Austin’s personal touches and customer service is exceptional.
Throughout the planning process, Austin and Becca did a great job checking in and making sure they had all the details down. They both have great taste and know what works at weddings so it was great having them to bounce ideas off of.
The moments they captured on our wedding day were unbelievable. Austin is truly an amazing artist and his eye for imagination and detail is incredible. I didn’t even know some of the beauty existed that he captured at our venue. The photos he had our bridal party and family stage for were beyond beautiful. His knowledge of film/photography/use of light is unreal.
I can’t say enough good things about Austin and Becca. They are worth every penny. We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives. We can’t thank them enough for capturing our big day so perfectly.”

“I met Austin Warnock, and his wife Rebecca, almost ten years ago. They were just dating then, so I’ve had the honor of watching them fall in love and become the incredible team they are today. When I first saw Austin’s photos, years ago, before I ever met my husband, I had an immediate hope in my heart that I might have photos that beautiful of my wedding one day. Eight years later, Austin and Rebecca travelled to St Louis, and documented every feeling and detail and smile of the day I married my husband, Nate. Austin sees things that others might easily pass by. He took a photo of my dad looking down at his boutonnière as he pinned it on in the mirror, that will be one of my favorite photos for the rest of my life… he somehow captures meaning and emotion and life. Austin also did our engagement photos and took incredible photos of our newborn twins, Henry & Rose. His photos adorn almost every wall in our home and years and years down the road, I think they will be the photos that give our kids a glimpse into who their mom and dad were when they were young. And, on top of his innate talent and true care and passion for his work, Austin is just genuinely a good man. Austin and Rebecca are two of the most wonderful people I will ever know. I thank God for their friendship and the irreplaceable role they played in the biggest moments of my life.”

“When it comes to ‘no regrets’ decisions in planning our wedding, choosing Austin Warnock Photography is at the top of the list. Austin and Rebecca put us at ease from our first cup of coffee to talk about our vision through the final send-off. Even though my husband and I are often uncomfrortable in front of the camera and in the spotlight, (hello, wedding day!), they gracefully helped us laugh and relax into a fantastic day celebrating the joy and wonder of our union surrounded by family and friends.
They went above and beyond, scoping out the lighting of our outdoor barn wedding the day before, and capturing beautiful landscape shot that hang in our home today. And while some photographers would have gotten justifiably ruffled at trying to corral our large family for photos, with several ‘disappearing’ family members, they took it all in stride and took the opportunity to snag some incredible candid shots of our nieces and nephews that the whole family treasures.
This husband and wife duo make such a fantastic team. They present a calm, gracious balance of artistry and professionalism, and will blend seamlessly into your vision for your big day. Of the countless decisions you’ll make in planning a wedding, take a deep breath and know that choosing Austin Warnock Photography is rock-solid.”

“If you are looking for a professional photographer who truly understands the art, Austin Warnock is your guy. His mastery of film, light and architecture leads to breathtaking photos. His vision, artistry and attention to detail won’t disappoint even the toughest critic. He and his wife are nothing short of fabulous. Austin and Rebecca are not only incredibly talented; they are also two of the kindest people we have ever met. They went above and beyond for our wedding and were truly a joy to work with. Photography was THE top priority on our wedding vendor list and we are so happy we chose Austin Warnock Photography.”
Jacob & Kristen
“I found out about Austin and his wife, Rebecca, from browsing local photographers’ websites. I was ecstatic after I learned they photographed my friend’s wedding, and that my sister had scored his number for me. My husband and I met with them both and immediately knew that we wanted them to do both our engagement shoot and our wedding. Our 3-hour engagement session was the most fun I’ve ever had posing for pictures. We’ve been told over and over from friends that they are the best pictures they have seen, and I would have to agree, slightly biased, of course. Austin does not use digital, but film, which makes it even better. He and his wife are both talented photographers and I felt completely at ease even knowing there would be no retouching or editing done on our photos. I absolutely recommend Austin to anyone who is in search of a photographer , and can’t wait to see our wedding pictures.”
Molly & Phil
“Everyone hopes to find that magical photographer that will bring their wedding to life year after year. With Austin + Rebecca my husband and I hit the jackpot. I don’t think it’s possible to say ‘thank you’ enough for the breathtaking photos, your attention to detail, your adventurous spirit, for not being a ‘typical’ wedding photographer and for tackling our wedding with so much grace. You’ve proven that these aren’t just photos, but they’re individual pieces of art that we are so proud to own.”
