Tamra & Tyler
What a great shoot this turned out to be! Originally, this fun retro inspired Day After shoot was scheduled to be at the Texas State Fair, but seeing as Dallas has become the new Seattle, the photo location was redirected to the hip shopping area of Mockingbird Station near downtown. I’ll be honest, as much fun as the fair would have been, I love everything about how this photo session went. Just goes to show- just because it’s raining in Dallas doesn’t mean you can’t get great wedding photos and portraits! Also, a big thanks to Amy Karp for her genius (and generous) organization and idea for this.
If you notice a pattern in some of these it’s no a mistake, I adore Tamra’s 50’s style retro shoes she was sporting for the pictures. Not to mention that great black pair of awesome Tyler is wearing too! Double style points to you both.
Meet Sophie, Tamra & Tyler’s adorable pooch. She was so sweet and obviously a rock star…
With the rain drizziling around us the air was getting chilly, so Tamara took the opportunity to warm up, Tyler got a chance to catch up on the football game playing, and I continued to take pictures of the newlyweds.
The rain picked up a bit so we all headed to the underground parking garage to play with some lighting set ups. I know it’s strange but I love parking deck photography, there are some many lines to play with! Bonus Tip: Underground garages tend to have relatively stable temperatures, so if it’s cold out it’s a great place to warm up (and vice-versa during summer months). So when shooting engagements or bridals and I want the urban feel but weather is less than perfect, don’t be surprised when I ask you to meet me here, it’s for a photographic reason

Thanks Tamra for just being you! I had a blast playing up your vintage style. Some post wedding bridal portraits…
I know the rest of these aren’t what most consider “boudoir” but I politely say YOU’RE WRONG! How amazing would these artistic photos be as little gift cards to her hubby on special occassions, or just because, to remind him of how beautiful she is and also a reminder of their wedding? Yeah, pretty amazing if you ask me.
PS (and I’m slightly bragging)- That second photo is shot with a backlit flash only, in a dark underground cement area! Yeah, I love my Canon 5D Mark II…
