Rebel with a Camera is golden and walks on water when it comes to selecting a photographer. We started with another photographer for our wedding that wasn't cutting it and frankly sucked. Found Travis and his wife and we are glad we did. We had each other on our toes and laughing the whole time. He is a character and will bring the best out in you and make your photos glow with pure awesomeness. OK enough sucking up to Travis... Every request we had he met and exceeded. We started with a simple Engagement Shot at the Capital and downtown which we had a blast at. For the Bridal we had the idea of using a Tank at Fort Hood. He was all about it and the photos turned out great. But wait it gets better, the actual wedding. Travis and his wife stealthily sneaked around the venue taking photos of us during the preparation without even bothering us and snapped some great photos. During the ceremony itself he captured all the emotion of the moment and told the story in his photos. After the wedding we quickly finished up our photos in no time at all. I would recommend Rebel with a Camera to EVERYONE and a few others. Thanks Travis... We had a Great time! Oh and the books and products he offers are all worth it!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!!!!!!
Travis is such a great photographer! After interviewing many photographers, we realized that had to spend more $$ to get the quality shots that we wanted. After meeting with Travis in his studio & looking through his albums, we realized that he was "the one." Travis was flexible in helping us choose the package that suited our budget & needs.
ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS:
We setup our engagement photo session to be during a weekday evening. Travis knew that we wanted a modern touch to our engagements (not soft & romantic, but rather fun & edgy)...so he chose the perfect spots--Penn Field on SOCO, Welcome to Austin sign in S.Austin. We even threw in an impromptu spot (Amtrak Station off 5th) because we had enough light left in the day. Definitely got our $$'s worth. Once we got our Engagement photos back -- I was so happy that we hired Travis for our wedding. I had no hesitations; I knew that he would capture the moment of our special day & take gorgeous shots.
Some things that set Travis apart from other photographers:
* He gives you a full-day of photographs---from makeup/hair all the way through the reception. No need for a videographer, as Travis' pictures captured every bit of energy & excitement.
* They blend in! I've been to weddings where the photographer gets in the way of everything. We never noticed such a problem with Travis/Christina---they found a way to capture the moment, without making our guests feel awkward/annoyed.
* Christina (Travis' wife) is amazing! Her "eye" for shots complements Travis' style very well.
* Christina hung out with me (in bridal suite) while Travis' took pictures in the grooms' quarters. This was cool because I could see (after we got the pictures back) what my husband was doing in his area.
* Prompt response to email communication. Travis always responded to all of my emails within 1 day! This is instilled great confidence that he was truly a professional & would make the best of our wedding day.

I heard about Travis and Christina when I put out a message asking for photography recommendations. After I looked at their site (www.rebelwithacamera.com), I was convinced. When I found out they weren't available on our wedding date, we changed our wedding date.
I love photography and Travis and Christina are the rare combination of artists who are obviously passionate but don't take themselves too seriously. I appreciated that during both our engagement photos and on our wedding day, they were unobtrusive, but were happy to work with any shots or poses we really wanted.
The results of both the engagement photos and our wedding photos still make me smile and tear up, I love the joy and love that they captured. I especially love how they captured the relationship between my young son and the man who became his father and my husband.
Having Travis and Christina share our wedding with us is the best choice we made...besides deciding to get married. Go, hire them now!
