About John Unrue Photography

John Unrue Photography

Professional Photographer

I fell in love with photography as a teenager, standing in my neighbor’s darkroom and watching images appear like magic in a tray of developer. That moment — the transformation of light into something permanent — never left me. I’ve had the privilege of photographing over 1,000 weddings and working with extraordinary families, builders, designers, and brands. My work has been published in hundreds of magazines and marketing campaigns, and I remain grateful for every opportunity to tell a story through light. Photography is still magic to me. And I’m thankful you’re here to experience it. Thank you! John Unrue

Whether capturing an intimate wedding, a luxury destination Wedding on an island or Vow Renewal, I approach every event with the same belief and compassion as I did when fell in love with photography.

A true storyteller! Professional & fun
We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. John perfectly captured every meaningful moment while making the entire experience so much fun and easy. He kept everyone engaged and comfortable, yet somehow blended seamlessly into the background so nothing ever felt forced. His style really reflected us as a couple, and we loved that the photos were natural, timeless, and never over-edited. If you’re looking for an experienced photographer that knows what he’s doing, has a blast while doing it, and is an overall great vendor partner, John is your guy!

The BEST of the BEST!
As the mother of the bride, I am so grateful we chose John Unrue to photograph our daughter’s wedding. From the very beginning, he was warm, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. On a day filled with emotion and excitement, John brought a calm presence that made everyone feel comfortable. He captured the most beautiful, heartfelt moments — many of which I didn’t even realize were happening. The photos are stunning and truly reflect the joy of the entire day. We will cherish these memories forever. I highly recommend John to any family looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

Best wedding photographer
As the father of the bride, I couldn’t be happier that we chose John Unrue for my daughter’s wedding. He was professional, calm, and very easy to work with throughout the entire day. John captured every important moment beautifully, from the big emotional moments to the small candid ones we would have missed. The photos are absolutely stunning and truly tell the story of the day. Our family will treasure them forever. I highly recommend John to anyone looking for a talented and experienced wedding photographer.

How, what a compliment! I love photographing your wedding. What an amazing family!

Typically, couples book me about 13 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.

My turnaround time varies by season. Typically, you’ll be able to view your photos online about 1-2 weeks after your wedding. Within this time, you can also expect to receive a USB drive with high-resolution image files, so you can share the photos with your loved ones and order prints.

In my 25 years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve never cancelled a booking. In the very rare event that I’m unable to photograph your wedding, I’ll make sure you’re covered by one of my colleagues or my contracted assistant. I’ll also provide you with a list of photographers from the many networking groups I’m in, so you can find the perfect replacement.

Sometimes, I’ll bring one or more assistant photographers depending on the size of your wedding. Don’t worry, this won’t cost you extra.

No, I prefer focusing on photography only, so you can get the best wedding pictures possible.

You can expect about 80 to 100 images per hour of photographing. But keep in mind this estimate varies depending on your wedding package, number of guests, venue type, and other factors.
