The Dallas World Aquarium

Have you ever been to the Dallas World Aquarium?

If you haven’t it is time to gather the family and spend the day inside this incredible place full of adventure for all ages!

Take a look at some of my favorite moments from the day with my daughter and her BFF.

Oh and if you are looking for a unique venue for your wedding or event, well they do that too! I have photographed both there and they can really make this place something your guests will talk about for years to come!

Mykie & Samantha’s very unique LGBT wedding at the The Quixotic World

I have shot many sessions in Deep Ellum over the years from senior portraits to couples, Modeling, etc, and I always stop at this building because I love the red and black on the outside for my sessions. I have always wondered what they have done to the inside since the name change, back in the 90’s I would see bands play there.

I was so excited when I booked this LGBT wedding and on NYE!! (During the afternoon though), however, when my 2nd shooter and I arrived it was SNOWING!!!! We walked in from such a bright and freezing situation outside to a dark and almost Willie Wonka like scene inside, it was awesome! I was in photography heaven, some photographers may have walked in and been in panic mode because if you do not know how to shoot in low light and I mean almost dark, well then you are in trouble. I have years of experience so I was not worried, I was very excited!

Here are some of my favorites from the ceremony and reception, I absolutely love how this venue looks now and the creative touch the brides added. This venue holds all types of events, you really need to check them out. https://www.thequixoticworld.com/dallasweddingvenue/

Nelson family previews – Dallas Arboretum

Sweet little sibling session at the Dallas Arboretum. This brother and his sisters sure do love each other!

These are some of my favorites!

 

Enchant experience at Globe Life park!

Seriously!!!! MAGICAL!

I took my girls to Enchant last night and not only is it a photographer’s dream, it is a magic wonderland for all ages! We had the VIP experience with dinner in a heated tent to die for, no waiting in line and I simply cannot tell you how amazing it was, you really need to be there to see it, and IT SNOWS!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean, we didn’t want to leave!

OH! They had an ice skating rink in the middle of it all, a maze to try and find all of Santa’s reindeer and the big guy himself was there! Food trucks all over the place and the best hot cocoa around.

I want to go back already 🙂

Santa mini sessions – Victor family previews

The little ones still need time to learn who Santa is, they are just unsure but as they grow older they start to realize the magic and gifts that come along with Christmas <3 Little brother was there to help but it is always harder on mommy to see the little’s upset, here are just a few of my favorites.
