Laura Sponaugle Photography

Laura is a superb photographer! She is gifted at her craft and certainly goes well beyond the technical camera and shooting skill set required to be worthy of 5 stars. The key to great photos is the innate ability to see people, their style and passions and really, their essence. For me, this shows in photos and Laura can do this effortlessly. And another thing, she spends time getting to know you, your interests, desires and style. While her wedding and event photos are stellar, her branding and personal image work is at the same level of professionalism. You will LOVE her!

Laura was amazing. We decided to do a last minute extended family photo shoot since we were all flying into town for a wedding, and she fit us in at the last minute by moving a few things around. We asked her about a few different shooting locations, and she visited each one before the shoot to give us her opinion of each. During the session, she was super flexible let us take as many shots/ poses as we wanted. Most importantly, the photos came out amazing. Would absolutely recommend Laura!

Laura is absolutely amazing! I have recommended her to several friends for their weddings, engagements, and other shoots. She has great attention to lighting and detail and takes the time to make sure you are getting exactly what you want out of the shoot. She made the process easy, comfortable, and fun. She gave me so many pictures to choose from and gets them back to you quickly. If I could give 10 stars, I would.

We hired Laura for our Estes Park, CO destination wedding. We live in Houston, and even though there were plenty of wedding photographers available in Colorado, none of them captured the vibe, the liveliness, and the stunning use of natural light I saw in Laura's work. I knew I had to ask her to to be our wedding photographer. From the beginning, Laura took her time to get to know us as individuals and as a couple. She suggested we meet just to get to know each other. Not only is she a delightful person who puts you at ease, but it's very clear she cares about who she is photographing and what they're about. Throughout the entire wedding process, she checked in regularly and maintained both a professional and a personal touch. We also did a couple's shoot in Rocky Mountain National Park two days before the wedding. Laura researched all the best viewpoints, gave us options, and even went to the specific spots the day before at the same time as our photo shoot the next day to check lighting in each spot. She was so detail oriented, and both her pictures from that shoot and our wedding are stunning. Even our guests have raved about her work. None of the picture were overly posed for forced, she captured everything in an airy and romantic light, and she really caught the best candid and spontaneous moments--she captured the life behind the whole weekend. I can't say enough about Laura's work or how she brings out the best in her subjects. We will definitely ask her to capture all our life milestones from now on.

Laura is amazing!! She’s sweet and friendly and just made this whole experience more comfortable and fun!! She was able to work around my schedule and timing and when it comes to location, she knows how to pick them!! I told her what I was looking for and the vision I wanted to create and she made it happen!! She picked a great outdoor location AND brought my vision come to life!! When she sent my photos over I was so happy with the pictures!! They came out great, the lighting was great overall SHES JUST GREAT!!! I can’t wait to work with her again and hopefully making her my family photographer!!

Laura took my engagement pictures and I couldn’t be happier with the photos! She was easy to contact, very helpful in styling, and made us feel so comfortable during our session. We had so much fun and would highly recommend her!

I cannot recommend Laura highly enough. This was the second time we used Laura for family photos. Despite having a cranky toddler, Laura was so incredibly flexible and patient and she somehow managed to capture countless beautiful photos. She is a magician - now have numerous beautiful photos of our whole family including our dog. We will absolutely be using her again!

Laura Sponaugle was a fantastic photographer to work with. She made the experience personable, fun and engaging and relaxed. We did a photoshoot to remember our trip to TX and to mark our son's first birthday. Laura was organised, interactive and had an amazing eye for location, lighting and created a relaxed environment for our son and us to enjoy the session. The photos she took were absolutely stunning and really captured the special moments. We would definitely have photos done through her in the future - highly recommended.
