Dallas Portrait Photographer
Sydney is a Senior at Ursuline Academy and is excited about looking at schools for next year. We had a blast taking her photos in New York City. We wondered around Central Park and it was filled with fog. It was a bit chilly so we had stages of no coat photos.
Adam and Liz are some of our closest friends. Liz wanted to take photos for their first year Wedding Anniversary. We were a few months late and we picked one of the most hot and humid days of spring (even though you luckily can't tell in the photos). Adam and Liz did a "first look" for their wedding and she was holding balloons when she walked up to greet him. And now that explains the balloons. And wine you ask? Why not is the explanation for that. We have drank many bottles of two buck chuck from Trader Joes with them. Congrats on your Anniversary Adam & Liz! Here is to lots more laughs and bottles of wine!
Next time Adam gets a Sippy Cup!
I have to say I have the most beautiful Mama! She recently became a Realtor and has already become very successful. So if you are looking for a house in Amarillo....she's your gal. We had a lot of fun taking her headshots. We had to get a few pics with her Grandogs. I think we had more fun than they did.
Growing up my brothers told me I was adopted from the Frog Face Family. It was kind of easy to believe because I was the youngest and only girl but mainly because we looked NOTHING alike!
There is no hiding that the Fisher Girls are sisters. They are both gorgeous and very easy to photograph. We had a lot of fun taking their photos at an old Cotton Gin in Rowlett.
As a girl you always what you don't have. I would trade my ultra straight hair for Megan's incredibly curly hair! I have known Megan for a few years now and when she showed up for her session, I was shocked how beautiful she looked. She has a beautiful smile and a more beautiful heart of service. She recently was accepted as a chapilan in the Army. This has been a dream of hers and she made it happen. So proud of you Megan!
Christine and Jake had a beautiful June wedding at TCU in Robert Carr Chapel. Can you guess their wedding colors? Purple, Purple, Purple! They are very proud to be Horned Frogs!
Christine and Jake met at TCU..technically online! They had mutual friends so they became Facebook friends. After several long conversations on chat, Jake asked Christine out for coffee. Christine, being the planner that she is, made plans after their coffee “date” just incase it went bad! Too bad it was amazing and she had to leave early.
The ceremony was so perfect it almost made me cry! My favorite picture of all times is when the groom first sees his bride. Jake could not hold back his tears. And I don’t blame him because Christine looked absolutely STUNNING! You could feel the love between them the entire ceremony. Jake’s brother even had to comfort Jake as he read his vowels to Christine. I was so happy to be a part of the making of this new family.
And then the party started! Christine’s family being from NY and Jake’s family full of jokesters, I had some amazing reception photos. If you are looking for a reception, I highly recommend Ashton Depot. And hire me because I want to shoot there again!!! The staff was so attentive to Jake and Christine’s needs (and you don’t see that a lot)!
Of course there was a bit of TCU flare at the reception. The grooms cake was the spitting image of frog fountain.
The night ended with a final dance with just Jake and Christine as the guest lined up to light their sparklers. Christine and Jake left in a vintage fully restored Corvette. Thank you Christine and Jake for letting us be a part of your special day! We are excited we still have your day afters photos coming!!!
Shanna is a local photographer in Fort Worth. Her entire family was getting together for the first time since her adorable little ginger was born. So...there was a need to update the family photos. As a photographer, we often forget to get on the other side of the camera from time to time. It was fun to meet her family and also a little nerve racking taking photos of another photographer!
Emily chose the perfect location for her bridals. I have shot multiple times at the Botanical Gardens in Fort Worth, and it is quickly becoming one of my favorites. After shooting her wedding last week at Stonebriar Country Club, I realized how much she loves color! The second to last picture was her bridal portrait at the wedding. Her mom said it looks like, “You ware walking down a path and you meet Justin. You look up and have a huge smile because you are so happy!” Every picture looked like it was out of a fairy tale.
Enjoy her pictures and keep an eye out for her wedding blog!
That moment when the Universe seems to be corroborating with your creative vision......that moment was Lauren's bridals. We started off on one of the most gorgeous Catholic churches in Muenster, TX. We then moved to a beautiful house on a farm right as the sun started setting. The lighting was gorgeous and be bride was even more gorgeous.
Christine is a trooper! We did her bridals in April to escape having a heat stroke, but unfortunately we couldn’t escape the Texas wind! I was amazed at how happy she looked in every single picture. Her dress was absolutely beautiful and fit her perfectly. She made an absolutly stunning bride a week ago at Robert Carr chapel and Ashton Depot. The look on Jake’s face when he first saw her explained it all. It almost made me tear up!
Cory and Jordan’s wedding was a very special wedding for me. I mentored Cory in high school and saw her grow and transform to a beautiful woman and now wife! Being a wedding photographer is so fun because you get to witness so many special moments from the engagement to the wedding day!
The wedding was at Marty Leonard chapel which is now one of my favorite locations. The chapel is brilliantly painted in natural light, and since they don’t place any restrictions on photographers, I could get pictures from every angle! Which was perfect for the romantic Cory, who wanted pictures capturing the look on Jordan’s face as she came into view.
The reception was at the Woman’s Club of Fort Worth, a venue charged with vintage charm. I loved the understated elegance of Mason Jars wrapped in lace filled with simple pink and white roses as centerpieces. She is the ultimate crafty lady and made everything from metal trays with chalkboard paint for table signs, a Carter Reception plaque, vintage contrasting china plates for her candy display, and even all of the bouquets. The Carters have some of the most eclectic friends! I had to include the timeline of the bouquet and flower toss. Check out the bridesmaid that gets hit in the head with the bouquet. It broke apart so 2 girls got 1 flower. I guess that means they are second and third in line for marriage!
When departing the reception, they passed through a sea of guests waving streamers with bells attached shouting well wishes to the happy couple!
Christmas is one of my favorite holidays. Nejira and Cory are no different. They brought candy canes and christmas lights to add to their scene and we found the perfect field of Christmas lights. I can’t believe Christmas is already over.
Lauren and Justin exchanged vows just this past weekend. Which made us
happy for two reasons. First, we got to witness one of the sweetest and
most beautiful ceremonies ever. Second, we get to post some of her bridals!
We spent a wonderful day in Tyler, TX this past fall shooting with
her. Lauren made the day so fun and easy that we didn’t want to stop
shooting. She was a gorgeous bride and we know she is going to make an
excellent wife. Congratulations Lauren and Justin!
Christine and Jake’s engagement session was at the Fort Worth Botanical Gardens and TCU. It just happened to be the same day TCU won against Boise State 36-35. We were just wrapping up their session when the game ended. There was a roar on the campus and students began flooding out of their dorms screaming. It was definitely a session like none before or since!
Rachael Grace’s bridals were so beautiful I had to post them the moment I got home from her wedding. Rachael not only shares my name but also a love for trains. Rachael brought her Grandmother’s suit case and some other cool props to make her bridals memorable. She has that perfect almost smile that many of us envy.
The hardest part about bridals is you have to wait 2 months to post them! I do love when brides get their photos and they didn’t realize how beautiful they were. Jennie was glowing last night at her wedding, and we were so excited to be a part of their special day.
Kate and Ross are a couple that love to have fun and truly enjoy each other. They often spend their weekends at Grapevine lake and introduced us to this amazing location. Thanks for such a great session!
Lauren+Justin= love, laughs and smiles forever. These two were such a joy to spend the day with. They did anything and everything we asked, just because they got to be wrapped up in each other all day. Their future together starts on January 7th,2012, and from what we see here they’re going to have a life time of love and fun.
On Saturday, I had a great opportunity to teach two of my friends a little bit about photography. Luckily enough the light was more than perfect! Briana and Selena are two beautiful sisters that braved the cold and shared one coat between the two of them. We didn’t have to direct either of them how to pose because they were naturals! I hope you enjoy their photos.
Amazing couple + Amazing location = Amazing pictures! Marty and Lindsay met at Apple, but at the time they were both dating someone else. It didn’t take long before fate took over and Marty and Lindsay were in love! They share a love for technology, and if Lindsay wins, a love for comic books. Check out their photos and keep an eye out for their wedding pictures come Easter.
