My MISSION
Your Story, Your Way
You are here because you know your story is not the same as others. Down to
every detail, you are creating something amazing. From that guest list that took
you way too long to finalize, to the styling, and bringing the dream to life. You are both ready to show your love a front of your family willingly, vulnerably, and with your own story.
My job is to bring you back those moments.
- Anthony Gauna
Welcome
Hi, I am Anthony (he/him/they), nice to meet you.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I've been a wedding photographer for over 12 years. I've photographed hundreds of weddings in San Antonio and surrounding areas throughout Texas.
Every couple I work with wants images that are authentic, not too posed, and definitely not bright and airy. I describe my style as artistic snapshots.
As a photographer specializing in weddings, I know that each couple's story and relationship is unique. Learning what makes you - you, and capturing your essence is the favourite part of my job. That's why I come invested as a friend and professional - not just some hired help. I can't wait to get to know you!

"Anthony Gauna Photography is a San Antonio wedding photography studio that specializes in personalized wedding services."
I COME INVESTED AS A FRIEND AND AS A PROFESSIONAL - NOT HIRED HELP THAT CAN'T WAIT TO LEAVE.
The Magic of Weddings
What I love most about weddings are the kids running around laughing, the tipsy family members adding a touch of humor, and the laughter that fills the air.
I cherish the quiet moments that will always be remembered, the crazy dance moves on the dance floor (some of which you might wish I didn't capture as proof of their bad dance moves), the amazing food chat everyone will talk about for years after your wedding, and the styling that just "worked".
My APproach
I’m not your traditional checklist photographer. I focus on capturing in-the-moment photos rather than perfectly posed ones. I photograph weddings like a friend, blending in as a guest, never stopping or recreating moments. Candid shots and unposed portraits ensure your photos truly reflect you and how you felt.
If you’re here, you likely connected with something different. You saw real-life moments that made you feel something. My best work happens when I have your full trust to capture those off-script moments, with the freedom to experiment and have fun. From day one, you’ll have my undivided care and attention to ensure nothing is overlooked.
"Holy Shit, That's Us?" Portraits
Your wedding photos will be more than just real candids of the two of you—they’ll be intentional, heartfelt art that captures the essence of your connection and personalities without looking like a Pinterest trend or photos you’ve seen anywhere else. I create portraits that feel natural and unposed, blending your authentic moments with my artistic eye. You’ll look amazing, with nothing feeling forced or cliché, leaving you saying, ‘Holy shit, that’s us?’
Natural Candids of Your Loved Ones
Throughout your entire celebration, I’m quietly photographing moments as they unfold. I never interrupt to say "look at the camera". I stay focused on your guests the whole time—from big hugs and teary reactions during speeches to wild moves on the dance floor. Your final photo gallery will be filled with genuine emotions, reactions, and moments with your guests at every stage of the day.
Your Photos Safely Stored
You’ll get a personal online gallery where you can view your photos, download high-resolution files (no watermarks), and order professional prints directly from me. You can also share the gallery with family and friends—so your parents won’t have to bug you for prints, I’ve got that covered! Plus, if you want to keep certain photos private, you can hide them from guests who have access.
Your gallery will be online for one year, with the option to extend storage for just $60 per year. If you choose to keep it online, I’ll ensure your photos are safely stored and always accessible—so you’re protected even if your laptop crashes or your hard drive fails.
Quality Printed Products
Easily order professional prints from my trusted lab right from your online gallery, and they’ll arrive super fast. The days of crappy prints from Walgreens you’re embarrassed to hang on your wall are over. These prints are beautifully crafted to showcase your photos in the best way possible, with vibrant colors and lasting quality. Whether it’s framed prints, canvases, or albums, you’ll have keepsakes you’ll love to display for years to come.
Fast Sneak Peeks, Faster Edits
I know you’re excited to relive your wedding day, which is why I deliver sneak peeks within a day or two after the celebration. You’ll have gorgeous, share-worthy photos ready for social media or to send to family—no need to rely on blurry phone pics!
Your full gallery will be ready within 8 weeks, filled with all the moments, big and small. Can’t wait that long? With my priority editing add-on, you can jump to the front of my editing queue and have your entire gallery delivered in just a week and a half!
Your Experience, Perfected
Over the years, I have obsessed over my client experience, from the first time you contact me to when you finally have all your images in your hands. I want this experience to be fun, especially leading up to your wedding.
When working with me, you're free to be yourselves. My process is simple – you be you and I'll do the rest.
Photography Is Sacred, & I Intend to Keep It That Way
I have never been a religious person, but I believe photography is sacred. When I'm behind the lens, I form a vulnerable connection with the person, people, or landscape on the other side. This connection is sacred, shaped by who we are as individuals. I take this seriously.
As a cis man, I understand the considerations many people, especially women and members of the LGBTQ+ community, have when choosing a photographer for intimate portraiture. Many have justifiable reasons for hesitating to work with male photographers. Photography is sacred, and I intend to keep it that way.
Clients Are Like Family To Me
I’m incredibly grateful that this business supports me, my wife, and my son. I don’t pay for advertising because word of mouth has always been the heart of my business. My clients are thrilled to share their experiences because of how they felt during their sessions — valued, cared for, and confident.
I focus on building genuine relationships with my clients and treat them like family, caring for them every step of the way. This trust means my couples return to me time and time again, whether it’s to capture their wedding, anniversaries, boudoir, maternity, or family sessions. I’m honored to document these important chapters of their lives, and I can’t wait for you to be part of this journey too.
