Hotel Crescent Court is one of the classiest and most classic locations for an upscale bridal session or wedding in Dallas. This Hotel Crescent Court Bridal Session for my gorgeous and bubbly bride Lexi was oh beyond dreamy. The Texas heat did not dull Lexi’s shine in the least. Note that Hotel Crescent Court requires […]

This same sex Dallas micro wedding was one of my all time favorites! I am a sucker for small weddings to begin with, and this sweet couple had such amazing support from their family. We were lucky to get overcast weather. Even though it was midday, we were able to shoot all of the portraits […]

It photographs beautifully right before […]

Oak Meadow Ranch Weddings is a venue I have been a fan of for many years. This gem located in Valley View Texas is a immersive experience all it’s own. Removed just enough from bustling DFW to have that true country Texas feel. They have a lot of unique offerings not found at many venues […]

Something I discuss with all of my couple’s when working on their timeline is whether or not they are interested in doing a first look. First looks have become increasingly popular in recent years. About half of my couples opt for a adding one to their special day, so I wanted to explain the benefits […]
