Welcome to my Blog!

Sledd Weddings is boutique wedding photography firm based in Austin Texas run by (me) Mary Sledd. My approach is documentary and I strive to capture all of the real smiles, beautiful details and specail moments that make each wedding unqiue. In the last 4 years I photographed more than 100 weddings and have learned volumes about how to improve my work. This blog is a place where I post my favorite images and share tips for future brides. If I can empart only one message to all of my brides it is this - your wedding should be a celebration, not a performance.
