Emily’s bridals at Avalon Legacy Ranch

Emily & Miles were married on Sunday, March 11, 2018 so I can share her beautiful bridals. The day of her bridals it was raining so we had to find an indoor location quick. Avalon Legacy Ranch was the perfect location!

Here are some of the shots:

Elyza was a stunning bride! She was breathtaking in her gown from The Bridal Shoppe in Wylie, add in the gorgeous bouquet created by Treasured Blossoms Flower Market and it was picture perfect! Her hair & makeup was flawless!

We shot her bridals at the Dallas Arboretum, one of my favorite venues to photograph weddings, bridals, family sessions, engagements, you name it! Take a look at just some of my favorite shots from our session that day. She married her high school sweetheart Drake on February 22, 2018 at Rustic Grace Estate.

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/

Drake & Kelsey’s wedding previews – October 29, 2017

From the bride:

Drake and I knew each other in high school and ran in similar circles for a little while, but never dated. As college wore on, we both dated different people, but that didn’t work out for either of us.

The summer leading into our junior year of college, I was spending time with my friend Victoria (she spoke at the wedding), who happened to be good friends with Drake at the time.

Anyways, Drake hadn’t seen her for a while and knew she was about to leave for school, so he invited both of us to hang out with him and a group of friends. As soon as we showed up, Drake will tell you “that was that.” We hung out all summer and even a couple months into the school year before he asked me to be his girlfriend (he had just gotten out of a serious relationship and didn’t want to risk moving too quickly).

Our engagement story isn’t the most traditional, but basically we both decided we were ready and went to pick out a ring together. We drove home unengaged, walked in the door to Drake’s apartment, where he proposed to me. It was very intimate, one of my fondest memories.

After 15 months of planning, the wedding day came together perfectly. I can’t imagine it having gone better, and I have several friends, family members, and people like yourself to thank for it — would not have been possible without y’all.

A note from the bride:

Evan and I met at the University of Arkansas Fort Smith in 2011. We both played on the tennis team. We started dating in 2012 and Evan proposed to me in August of 2016. We were eating dinner at a nice restaurant when Evan excused himself from the table. He returned wearing a suit and got down on one knee to propose. We knew our ideal wedding would be in October and we were lucky and blessed enough to snag the Milestone in Denton for October 14, 2017. It was a wonderful day filled with so much love and overwhelming emotion.
