A Dallas Couple's Vacation Session in Turks & Caicos

This vacation session in Turks and Caicos was magical! We spent an evening on the beach and swam around as the sun set over the clear blue water. The next morning we woke up early for a sunrise hike and found ourselves in a taxi in the pouring rain. Luckily, the weather let up just as we arrived at our destination, and we had a beautiful hike under cloudy skies with a refreshing drizzle of rain.

I love the portraits I was able to create for these two, vacation sessions are such a beautiful way to have your favorite memories preserved.

Cozy In-Home Family Session | Dallas Family Photographer

These laid-back, in-home family sessions are some of the most fun to photograph. It’s such a privilege to be invited into a client’s home to document the unique nuances of their family and those special moments that make up a childhood. This session was one for the books. From secret handshakes and daddy-daughter dances to imaginary under-the-sea excursions, these four allowed me to capture them as they truly are, forever freezing moments that their children will thumb through and cherish for a lifetime.

Grapevine Family Session at Rockledge Park

I knew from the moment I received their inquiry that I was going to have a great time photographing this family. They were looking for “a photographer that captures the in-between, genuine, non posed moments” and said “We see this in your work. We see your ability to capture life that jumps from the frame.” Their vision was perfectly aligned with what I strive to create: photographs that document the overwhelming love of family and fleeting smallness of a child.

Our session was at Rockledge Park on a particularly warm Fall evening. The cool, refreshing waves made for the perfect spot to splash around and document their love.

The Williams - A Cloudy Family Session on Grapevine lake

I met up with Mariah and her beautiful family on a dreary Spring morning at Grapevine’s Rockledge Park. It was misting when we arrived, but that didn’t stop these four from having a great time. I love the images that we created while they explored, searched for dinosaurs, and splashed their feet in the water on this muggy Texas morning.

Session Tip: If your photo session is going to be near water, plan to get in! Pack extra clothing and towels for the ride home, and have fun with it. Getting in the water makes for beautiful photos and a refreshing escape from the Texas heat.
