Summer Engagement Session in Dallas

There’s something magical about a summer engagement session in Dallas, especially when it’s with a couple as delightful as Kris and Brylee. Capturing their love story against this gorgeous park was a joy. As a Dallas wedding photographer, it’s moments like these that remind me why I love what I do.

The Perfect Dallas Locations for Summer Engagement Photos

For Kris and Brylee, a beautiful park in Dallas with overgrown grass and majestic trees was the ideal spot for their engagement session. The natural beauty of the location, especially at sunset, provided the perfect setting for capturing their fun and candid moments. The park’s serene ambiance and picturesque scenery made their photos truly special.

Styling Tips for a Summer Engagement Session

Kris and Brylee chose outfits that complemented the summer vibe and the picturesque surroundings. Light, airy fabrics in soft, neutral tones worked beautifully against the natural backdrop. For summer sessions, I recommend outfits that are both stylish and comfortable, keeping in mind the warm weather. Brylee’s flowing dress and Kris’s casual yet sophisticated attire perfectly matched the ethereal setting.

Capturing the Golden Hour

We scheduled Kris and Brylee’s session to take full advantage of the golden hour, when the light is soft and warm. This time of day is perfect for creating dreamy, ethereal photos. The golden hour light enhanced the romantic feel of their engagement photos, making every moment look like a scene from a fairy tale. Their joy and love for each other shone through in every shot, making the photos truly unforgettable.

Behind the Scenes: A Day in the Life of a Dallas Wedding Photographer

Planning Kris and Brylee’s session was a wonderful experience. From discussing location options to coordinating outfits, every detail was thoughtfully considered. On the day of the shoot, we explored various spots within the park, capturing candid moments and posed portraits. My goal during engagement sessions is to direct like a movie, ensuring nothing feels cheesy or awkward. I guide my couples to make them feel completely like themselves, resulting in authentic and heartfelt photos.

Client Testimonials and Experience

Brylee’s reactions to the photos were priceless. After receiving the full gallery, she said, “Kim, they’re perfect! There are so many of them and that doesn’t even include the film. I love them so much and I can’t believe I get to keep these forever!! We will cherish them! Thank you a million times over.” When I sent her the sneak peeks, she said, “I CANNOT STOP SMILING & thank you so, so much! I cannot say enough good things about how comfortable you made us feel. You’re the best hype girl!! I’m so excited to see the rest of them because these are literally PERFECT. This also just made me so excited to see what kind of beauty you make for our wedding pictures! You’re the best.”

Their love story is a testament to the magic of rekindled connections and the beauty of taking chances on love. It was an honor to capture their engagement and be a part of their journey.
