Introduction: Trained in photojournalism at the University of Texas, I have been shooting weddings and portraits, architecture, advertising, landscape/ nature as a full-time photographer for over 20 years. In the last 6-7 years, I have also been producing video content for a variety of clients. I am an FAA commercially licensed drone pilot as well. I am fun and easy to work with, as well as punctual and professional. I deliver quality, quickly. Slaton Weddings is my wife and me, a traveling destination-style and adventurous wedding photography duo. My wife Ellen and I love capturing the story of your love! Let me know how we can help. ***WHERE ARE WE LOCATED, you might ask? Funny story... 5 years ago my wife and I were traveling so much for shoots that we decided to sell our home and most of our stuff and buy a truck and travel trailer and hit the road! We follow the work and loosely base ourselves in WY/ MT/ CO/ UT for the summer & fall, and then TX & FL for the winter & spring. So we live where you live! Sorta :) So if you see our location changing, don’t worry, that’s me just planning work along our route. Another great thing about this lifestyle is that travel is usually not an extra cost for you!

Wedding and Event Photography

We hired Andrew and Ellie Slaton to photograph our elopement at the Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado, they were seriously our dream team, they’re some of the kindest most positive people we’ve ever met, they have so much passion in what they do, they saw our vision and went for it 1000%. When the weather tried its hardest to work against us Andrew & Ellie never lost their spirits and helped us to create the most beautiful & magical memories none the less. They seriously went above and beyond to help us capture our day, we cannot thank them enough for everything they did for us!!

Portrait Photography

Andrew and Ellen were simply fantastic to work with. This has by far been the easiest family session we have had and we usually have one yearly with my extended family of 14 plus. They are extremely friendly and immediately put us at ease. The know all the best locations. The turn around time on pictures is extremely quick. They got every shot we wanted and even suggested a few poses as well as took several candid lifestyle photos. I cannot gush enough about our experience. Best gypsy photographer I have met.

Wedding and Event Photography

Andrew was amazing to work with. We were all so impressed with how he took the photos, the shots he thought to take, and how well he worked with everyone. I know a few people at the wedding left with his card because they were so impressed by what a great job he did! His wife Ellen did such a great job with visuals and they worked so well together as a team. We would definitely love to work with him again in the future! He and Ellen made the photographs effortless and did such an impressive job.

Andrew did an amazing job taking photos or my proposal to my fiancé. She had no idea they were there and was completely surprised. Andrew delivered a plethora of high quality photos. I will definitely be using Andrew for any future photography.

We do enjoyed meeting you both, and a big congrats to you!

My engagement photo shoot was amazing. I had so many pictures to choose from. Andrew allowed us to be ourselves. When I told him what I was looking for he knew exactly where to take us for the perfect photos. Pictures came out amazing.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
All of my pricing includes travel, unless otherwise noted. Also, I carry millions in business liability insurance, so you can feel safe hiring me for larger scale projects.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically, I want to have a meeting over the phone or in person to get to know them, which helps me understand their needs and vision for the project better. Then I work closely with them to ensure I am meeting their standards for work.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a bachelors degree in photojournalism from UT Austin, as well as a decade of apprenticeships under a variety of old pros.
