Don and Trang's Engagements

Don and Trang found me through WeddingWire, and met with me a couple of times before bringing me on board. They knew what they wanted in terms of photography, and also provided some room for direction from me as well -- my kind of clientele.

We started at the Dallas Arboretum, then moved to White Rock Lake, Deep Ellum, and finally finished in Downtown Dallas. Here are some that I want to show from their session:

I wanted to make use of Dale Chihuly's glasswork, but also didn't want to over power the couple:


A simple arch makes for a clean image:

The pumpkin patch features houses and a carriage that guests can visit as well:


We made our way to White Rock Lake, and stopped at a small area near Lawther and Poppy. They brought along some balloons, too:


At the end of a pier:

When we arrived to Deep Ellum, it had started to rain, they were good-spirited about it, and rescheduled with me to continue the session. We resumed at Daniel Munoz's "Tonatiuh" mural, which means "sun god."



Then moved to The Traveling Man, as per their suggestion. Here, I lit them with a tripod-mounted flash for some fill lighting:



We headed in the direction of the Latino Cultural Center off Live Oak, and stopped along the way:

With the sun going down, I wanted to get a few more flash-filled photos:



The architectural installations allowed for some framing:


Some shadow work:

A pose they wanted to try:

On our way back, I had them do some dipping:

We last stopped at the JFK Memorial Plaza to round off this session:


Don, Trang, thanks so much for working with me, I look forward to April!
