I’m Austyn—the photographer behind Austyn Seitz Photography, a sentimental soul, creative thinker, detail lover, and the calm presence you’ll want in your corner when your wedding day finally arrives. I first picked up a camera 6 years ago when trying to connect with people from a distance, never imagining that what began as just taking pictures of friends would grow into the business and experience I’m so proud to offer couples today.
Over the past 6 years, I’ve learned that exceptional wedding photography requires far more than knowing how to create a beautiful image—it requires knowing how to anticipate moments, adapt when plans change, guide people with confidence, and remain composed when a wedding day inevitably has a mind of its own. That experience allows me to walk into your celebration prepared for the beautifully planned moments and everything that could never have been planned at all.
I’m naturally someone who notices the little things, which means I’m watching for the way your parents look at you, the hand squeeze before the ceremony, the wind catching your veil just right, and the laughter happening across the room while everyone else is looking somewhere else. I’ll give you direction when you need it, fix the tiny detail that’s out of place, hype you up when the camera comes out, and disappear into the background when a moment deserves to unfold without interruption.
I take the time to understand your personalities, priorities, and creative vision because I never want your wedding photographs to feel like they could belong to anyone else. Years behind the camera have taught me when to create, when to anticipate, when to lead, and—perhaps most importantly—when to simply observe. My approach combines that experience with timeless, natural editing and a creative perspective that allows me to turn what you’ve envisioned into something tangible, beautiful, and distinctly yours. And while I take the responsibility of documenting your wedding incredibly seriously,
I’m also the person who will laugh with you, celebrate alongside you, and probably get a little emotional behind my camera at least once. By the time your wedding arrives, I don’t want to feel like another vendor on the timeline—I want to feel like someone you know, trust, and are genuinely excited to have by your side.
I’ll never turn down a beautiful sunset. Golden skies, warm light, and staying out just a little longer to watch the sun disappear will always have my heart.
Give me a long drive, windows down, a good playlist turned up, and somewhere beautiful at the end of it. I’m almost always choosing the scenic route—even if it adds an hour.
When I’m not photographing love stories, you’ll find me in the classroom teaching third grade. I like to think it explains both my patience and my ability to confidently organize a group of people when things get a little chaotic.
As much as I love creating and traveling, time with my family will always fill my cup the most. They’re a huge part of why photographs and preserving the people we love mean so much to me.
Mountains, national parks, scenic roads, little towns—I’m always ready to explore somewhere new. There’s a very good chance I already have my next adventure planned (or at least living in my notes app).
My happy hour order is forever a classic margarita on the rocks with a fun sugar rim. Keep it simple, make it cute, and I’m happy.
Whether I’m photographing a wedding, dreaming up a new idea, decorating a space, or planning something simply because I think it could be beautiful, I’m happiest when I’m creating.
Glen Powell or Miles Teller? Respectfully, I refuse to choose. If either one ever needs a photographer, however, my calendar has suddenly become very flexible.
