I love working with young people who are about to graduate and move on to the next exciting chapter of their lives.
Bittersweet in nature, it’s truly inspirational getting to know these seniors. I love working with them – hearing the stories they tell and the pursuits they enjoy.
Many times their parents will be watching as we move through the session. I can always feel the pride and love they have for their children. But there is also a sense of loss for the little kid that they are leaving behind.
These images are important for everyone involved, as they are the visual celebration of a milestone. Both a joyful declaration of what’s to come and a tearful farewell to all of those fond echoes of the past few years.
Families are Where it’s At | Dallas Family Photographer

Las Colinas is super family friendly. Things are changing some around that part of Irving, but the canals are still as beautiful as ever and continue to make for an awesome location for a Family Lifestyle Photoshoot.
Another favorite location is for Family Photos is in and around the Bishop Arts section of Oak Cliff. Funky and colorful, this part of Dallas is easily accessible and readily enjoyable with it’s urban authenticity by way of instagram-worthy street art and eclectic shopfronts. Every time I shoot in Oak Cliff I discover something new and exciting.
Families make this job what it is – a true adventure of fun. Kids always bring their unpredictable brand of energy that keeps me somewhere between on my toes and down on the ground crawling through the grass trying to catch some lightning in a bottle. The most beautiful thing I can ever hope to shoot is a family that is all in. The sum is so much more than the individual parts.

Catching up with so much wedding goodness. I love the intimacy of a mother or grandmother helping a young man with his flower. Awesome!

Okay, technically it’s still the same day, but I just couldn’t wait and since this series of posts was originally intended to mirror my instagram activity, I wanted to get everything caught up and tidy that way.
So, here we go with day two a few hours after day one.
This time, it’s all about the groomsmen. Striking a pose.
Enjoy!

It’s been awhile since my last post, so let’s get right back into it with a week and a half long run of daily wedding photos. These are gonna run the gammet from ultra-posed to intimately candid. Hopefully by throwing some of these favorite wedding images out there, any prospective clients will be able to get a good feel of my style and approach to shooting weddings.
We’ll start things off with a little “Bridal Attitude”.
Enjoy!
Living Magazine “Best Photographer” Reader’s Choice Winner | Best in Las Colinas & Coppell
In the world of professional photography, contests and awards can sometimes leave you scratching your head.
Through the years I have found myself on both sides of the winner’s circle, from first place all the way out to “Thank you, please try again.”.
Even as my business has grown, photography contests and the recognition of having someone say that my photos are actually good is always out there. It’s just this non-stop attractive distraction.
Every photographer wants to be told that they are a good photographer every now and then by someone other than their own mother. (Thanks, Mom!)
One of my favorite things about this job is the inherent duality of the product. On the one hand, it’s work and it’s straight forward and it’s a means to an end.
And then, on the other hand, it’s art and it’s purely creative and it can even be a little magical at times.
The truth is that the people I get to work with and for are the real judges. Every single shoot is another entry in the ongoing photography contest.
That’s why I am so proud and excited to write this post about being named “Best Photographer” by the readers of Living Magazine (Las Colinas/Coppell Edition).
This is the kind of recognition that reminds me who I’m shooting for . . . and why.
There are so many photographers out there and more than a few ways to approach the combination of the artistic and the functional.
It sure is wonderful to hear from a local publication that their readers have been polled and decided that my approach was deemed their favorite.
Makes me want to go out and take some pictures . . . for the shear joy of it.
Abracadabra.
Thank You –
To all who voted and continue to “vote” for me by hiring me and telling your friends about me.
