Mercy and Steve’s Gilley’s Dallas Wedding took place at The Loft at Gilley’s and perfectly fit Mercy’s modern, industrial vibe that she was going for! A little backstory: Mercy and I were neighbors back at our time at UT Arlington. In the years since, she’s started a thriving hair styling business, and we’ve remained friends […]
Jessica and Chris’s Texas Hill Country wedding took place in Mason, Texas at the Alamo Resort and Dancehall. I have a lot of feelings about this wedding, so y’all buckle up. We first worked with this lovely family back when Courtney, Jessica’s sister, got married to Buck back in 2014. I will say this over […]
Cortney and Will’s Brik Venue wedding took place on a Monday evening! I’m all about weekday weddings. It was an honor to be their photographer for several reasons: this was my third wedding with the Patterson family, and Cortney is in the wedding industry as a florist and planner. Cortney and Will met in college […]
Jessica and Derek’s Garden of the Gods Elopement in Colorado Springs was an adventure for the books! Jessica contacted me earlier this year via Instagram and asked if I travel for elopements. (The answer to that question is always yes!) Our consultation was two hours long, and I left worrying about if I revealed too […]
Felipe and Kayla’s Deep Ellum engagement session took place early in the morning on a July summer day. It’s the only time in Texas it’s tolerable to be outside, and at a location like Deep Ellum, we have quite a bit more space to photograph around the fun and creative murals. I always love it […]
Elise and Scott’s Piazza in the Village wedding had so many small, personal touches and a knockout color palette! I met Elise at the Piazza in the Village Open House (it was my first open house ever, and I won’t lie – I was a ball of NERVES!), but after meeting and working with her, […]
Gabby and Collin’s Hillsboro, TX Wedding took place on a wonderful Spring day. They tied the knot at Collin’s family church. Gabby got ready at their soon to be home down the street from the home Collin grew up in, and where their wedding reception took place later that evening. It was a privilege to […]
Lindsey and Brett had their Granbury TX wedding at Pecan Plantation Country Club in Granbury, TX. Their wedding day was intimate with their closest family and friends joining them from all over the country. It’s always special to witness families joining together. I also have to say it’s not everyday I hear “Pale Blue Eyes” […]
Sarah and Nick met up with me at the Arbor Hills Nature Preserve in Plano, TX early last Sunday morning for their engagement photos. They met while studying glass blowing at UTA, and now they both work as professional glass blowers! How cool is that? Sarah and I go way back – all the way […]
A Target engagement session? You bet! When Jessica texted me saying, “Soooo how do you feel about photos at Target?”, my answer obviously had to be, “Love it!” We then started brainstorming ideas for an additional location meaningful to them as a couple. Derek proposed at Sundance Square, and they met and fell in love […]
