Wes from New Road Productions did SUCH a good job with our wedding photography. He had very affordable pricing, was quick to respond to any questions I had during the wedding planning, and was so professional and nice the day of the wedding. Our wedding highlights video turned out SO well! We LOVE it and I have gotten so many compliments on it from everyone who watches it. We also got beautiful edited versions of the ceremony, first dances, and all of the speeches throughout the night; as well as, unedited raw footage of the whole day. I am having so much fun reliving my wedding day with the beautiful videos and would recommend New Road to every bride!

Wes Shephard (New Road Productions) is:
A) Professional, courteous, and prompt with answering emails and phone calls. He is flexible and accommodating with your schedule and shooting locations.
B) Friendly, personable, kind and patient.
C) Knowledgeable about his craft and is very creative with the lighting and the structures available.
D) Uncommonly reasonable with his pricing. You are getting far more than you pay for. I chose the largest package as well as video and still didn’t spend as much as the average photographer’s initial investment. He should be charging much more…and I will continue to use him when he chooses to do so.
E) The only photographer I will use from this day forward.
In fact, I have already hired him to photograph a party for us this summer.
True story...I saw New Road Production on "the knot" and only perused the photos and subsequently the website because on of his brides was someone I knew...and do not care for at all! But, I checked out everything, loved his work and found his prices more than reasonable. I met with him a few days later and signed the contract that afternoon. Everything went seamlessly. I even feel that I've gained a friend. In a nutshell, you aren’t going to find a better photographer.
The end.

Wes did the videography for or wedding. During the event, he was on top of everything and always seemed to be in the right place. After the fact, he was very responsive to our feedback and adjusted the video based on our comments. We're very happy with our highlight video and all the footage.

NEW ROAD PRODUCTIONS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! I will forever recommend Wes and New Road Productions! From the start I was impressed with the professional work from all of the talented photographers and videographers with New Road Productions. Videography and Photography were my top priorities even when planning my low budget wedding. When I first saw the amazing videos from New Road Productions I was sure they were out of my "economic bride" price range. One of the best things about Wes and New Road Productions is that they are extremely affordable with their packaged deals that include both video and photography. I was still able to have amazing videos and photography at a very great cost! Everything was professional from the start. Wes met us at a convenient location to discuss what we wanted for our special day. He was never pushy and ultimately concerned about helping us choose the perfect wedding package based on our wants and needs. I left feeling at ease (which is an amazing feeling for a bride-to-be) The day of the wedding was great! Wes and his team were VERY professional and I barely noticed they were there. One of the other many great things I liked about New Road Productions is that I truly felt they cared about me and my groom which was represented by all the hard work they put in to my photos and videos. My wedding photos were edited beautifully by Felimon. With other photographers, you worry about how the images will turn out but I assure you, that wont be the case with New Road Productions. Wes has his own level of quality and if the images or video do not meet that standard he will make sure they do before you see them- always leaving you with the best of the best. I appreciated the time it took to make all of my memories look there best. I was completely happy with the service, product, and with my new favorite Photographers and Videographers at New Road Productions!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!! You captured the most important day of my life beautifully!! I will use this company for every photo opportunity from now on!! Babies will be board in the coming years ;)

I would highly recommend Wes from New Road Productions for your wedding. He did a great job and I love all the pictures. It was neat to see all the moments that he captured, even things I didn't see happen. Wes even was able to get all the photos edited and back to me within a month. And the best part about it was he was very reasonablely priced. Photographers can cost alot and his prices were very good for amazing pictures. I would highly recommend New Road Productions to anybody planning there wedding in the Austin area.

Wes Shephard of New Road Productions was our wedding videographer. His packages are a great value, which helped because we initially did not budget for a videographer. However, we are so glad we splurged and did it because the video he made for us was just wonderful. We have enjoyed the wedding video more so than even our professional photos from another company. The highlight videos that Wes made were superb, and we have received lots of compliments from friends & family that did not attend the wedding. Many said that just watching our highlights made them feel as though they were actually there at the wedding. Our video production did take longer than expected in the editing process due to some staffing issues, Wes explained, and he wanted to do it himself to ensure his standards. However, we didn't mind, as we would rather wait and get a quality product. We have been extremely happy with the end product, and I highly recommend using Wes Shephard and his company, New Road Productions.

We are completely in love with the wedding video Wes created for us! We had a limited budget, but Wes had some reasonable packages available, and flexible payment options. He was great to work with leading up to the wedding, and always responded to emails quickly. For a small fee, he traveled to San Antonio for our wedding. On the wedding day, he stayed in the background, but still captured absolutely everything! Our video is PERFECT! Wes captured all of the fun and special moments, and the video itself is very high quality. It is impossible to be everywhere and see everything on your wedding day, so it is very special to be able to see it all later! The online link was awesome and made it very easy to share the video. Our friends and family members have laughed and cried after seeing the video, and we feel that it was worth every penny. We are so grateful to Wes, and wholeheartedly recommend him!

Wes was an absolutely amazing videographer!!! We could not have been more happy with the video he produced. It was the perfect collection of moments from our wedding day. Our video has made me cry and then laugh, it truly captured all the emotions of our special day. When selecting a videographer I was primarily concerned with two things: 1) an overly produced and over-the-top (cheesy) video, and 2) the staging of events to create forced moments. The video produced by New Road Productions contained neither of these items. We were so happy with all of the wedding day moments that Wes captured. When I showed one of my bridesmaids the video she thought it was incredible and then turned to say, “I don’t remember seeing a videographer that evening.” We are so unbelievably thrilled with Wes’ amazing work! We are so lucky that we picked the most amazing videographer! It will be something we will enjoy over a lifetime.
Very Happy Bride!

I just can't say enough to sufficiently applaud the work that Wes Shephard did for our wedding, the professionalism he brought to the event, and the amazingly creative and lovely photos he produced. My husband and I are thrilled with the photos, as are our family members and loved ones. Wes was so pleasant to work with, and was flexible within any budgetary and scheduling constraints. At the wedding he was unobtrusive but somehow managed to capture every meaningful moment and many tiny but wonderful ones that we missed. A truly gifted and professional artist.

Photography is often a huge part of a wedding budget. I wanted to have someone capture all of the special moments on my Bid day, but I couldnt bring myself to spend thousands and thousands of dollars.
Wes has so many customizable packages for every kind of bride. I really wanted a lot of candid, "in the moment" shots and Wes was absolutely wonderful at capturing this. He was very flexible and easy to work with. Dont look at anyone else, but Wes for your photography!

Wes took my Bridal portraits. It was great working with him and the pictures looked beautiful. I got the pictures and print quickly. One of his associates took the wedding pictures. The pictures look great, but there are some shots I wished he would have got that he didn't. I had a list in my head, but it's hard to keep track of all your shots during the wedding. An experienced photographer should know which shots he should get. I'm very disappointed with the service I received after the wedding. Our contract stated that I would have the pictures 6-8 weeks after the wedding. I didn't receive any pictures for 2 1/2 months after the wedding. Wes sent discs with the pictures on them, but I could not view any of the pictures because there was a problem with the files. I was able the transfer them to my computer and mess with the file to see them, but only I could see them. He said he would send me new discs, but I still don't have them. It's been 3 months since the wedding and I still don't have any pictures.
