Caitlyn & Yosef’s wedding day was a dream! We started with their heartfelt ceremony at Christ the King Catholic Church, captured golden-hour magic at Flippen Park, stopped by their favorite bar, Harwood Arms, for a celebratory drink 🍻, and wrapped up the night with an epic reception at the Perot Museum. 🎉

From the sweet glances they exchanged to the dance floor energy, every moment was filled with love and joy. 💕 These two remind me why I still adore photographing weddings after almost two decades.

Can’t wait to share more from this beautiful day, but here’s a little sneak peek to hold you over! 🥂✨

✨ Sneak Peek Time! ✨

Caitlyn & Yosef’s wedding day was nothing short of incredible. We started the day with a beautiful ceremony at Christ the King Catholic Church, took a quick detour to Flippen Park for some dreamy portraits, stopped by their favorite bar, Harwood Arms, for a celebratory toast 🍻, and ended the night dancing under the stars (and science exhibits!) at the Perot Museum. 🤩

Every detail was flawless, but what truly made the day unforgettable was them. Caitlyn & Yosef, you (and all my couples I've been working with!) are why my heart is still so full after nearly two decades of capturing weddings. 💕✨

Stay tuned for more from this amazing day, but for now, enjoy this little sneak peek!

Also, thank you for spoiling my Ae**us rotten during your pre-wedding final meeting visit. He's been asking about you, so we must plan that game night soon!

🎉 Ba reached out a few months ago, ready to elevate their new brand with some fresh, artsy branding photos. While Ba admitted to being super camera-shy (just like most of my clients, lol), they absolutely nailed this session! 💃✨Artsy therapist branding photos? SIGN👏🏻ME👏🏻UP👏🏻

From the high-fashion vibes to that bold pop of color, we captured Ba’s confidence and personality in a way that’s equal parts editorial and authentic. Seriously, these photos give me LIFE. 🙌

Whether you’re a creative, professional, or business owner, branding photos that truly represent YOU are a game changer. Ready to step in front of my lens and let me work my magic? 💖

Picture this: A cozy carriage ride through Uptown Dallas, a sneaky (totally “legit”) photographer cough, me! tagging along for “promotional photos,” and a boyfriend-turned-fiancé popping the BIG question at just the right moment! Lucy had her suspicions at first (I mean, who wouldn’t when a camera-wielding stranger tags along?), but after chatting up the horse and driver like my new besties, I had her convinced. !

When Josh dropped to one knee, Lucy’s shock turned into happy tears. I’m basically still tearing up just thinking about it!

Seriously, another surprise proposal in the books where I got to put my uber acting skills to use —where’s my damn Oscar?! 😆😆😆

Today marks 10 YEARS since I moved to Dallas! 🥳

The biggest business risk I took was when I decided to move across the world and start a new life here in Texas - with no clientele, network, family, friends - no NOTHING.

Sometimes, we must choose to play it safe or risk it.

I choose to get out of my comfort zone.

I decided to take the risk because I wanted to and desperately needed to break out of my mold. It wasn't always easy. There were times within the first two years I questioned if I had done the right thing or not - and I felt really defeated, but I was determined to make it happen.

So what happened after that? I sold all my personal belongings within less than nine months, packed two suitcases of my clothes, and my cat, Nyx - got on the Lufthansa flight on December 17, 2014, and never looked back!

And you know what? I'm so darn happy I did it. I have met so many amazing humans since moving here - creating a little happy world of my own and sharing all the love and joy human connection has to offer...

Well, a few things happened after I moved to Dallas, TX.

The first few years were very rocky for my business. Back in Turkiye I had a giant friend group that were my biggest cheerleaders, and I never had to learn marketing. So I had to learn how to market and run my business all over again! I also had some time to adjust to my new life, new friends, and new environment...

And you know what? Today I have my dream studio, I have my furkids by my side, I have amazing friendships that I like to call my "fRamily" and I would not change a thing in my little life. *insert the "I love this little life" song here*

The reason I'm sharing this with you today is that I want you to know that big dreams take a lot of work and often require us to push ourselves past our comfort zone.

Is there a risk you've taken in the past or are you thinking about taking now that requires you to push yourself outside of your comfort zone? Let's do this together!

🌿✨ He had her thinking it was just a casual stroll at the stunning Dallas Arboretum, but little did she know… 💍💕 The moment he got down on one knee, the world melted away, and it was just the two of them—and the butterflies in her heart. Capturing this surprise proposal was pure magic—watching love unfold against the dreamy backdrop of one of the most romantic places in Dallas. 🥹💫

PS: Hey , can I just pitch a tent here already? Between all the lovebirds, engagements, and proposals, I feel like I practically live here! 🏕️ Let me know if I can be your honorary roommate 😂

I mean it when I tell you this couple is nothing short of a dream to work with! 😍 Their love, energy, and connection radiate through every single frame—and we had the best time during their session last Sunday. These two got married last October, and although their wedding day wasn’t photographed due to a tough health challenge I faced, I still had the privilege of editing and delivering their wedding gallery, ensuring everything felt true to my style and quality. 💫

Lauren and Carl were so understanding and kind throughout everything. Even though my amazing associates stepped in and captured their day beautifully (seriously, I only work with the best 🙌), I still wanted to do something special for them—because couples like these deserve all the extra love. 🖤

This session was my way of saying “thank you” for their grace, patience, and trust during a difficult time. And let me just say—they made this shoot so much fun! Every laugh, every glance, every moment was pure magic. ✨

Swipe through these gems to witness a love story that’s as stunning as they are. 🖤💍

I recently had the privilege of working with Katie Condon, an award-winning poet and the author of Praying Naked, to create a series of portraits that embody her unique voice and vision. These images will represent Katie’s identity as a poet on her website, social media, and other platforms where her work connects with the world.

📖 Who Is Katie?
Katie’s poetry has graced the pages of The New Yorker, Ploughshares, and American Poetry Review, and she’s the recipient of the Charles B. Wheeler Poetry Prize. She’s also an assistant professor of English at Southern Methodist University, inspiring the next generation of writers. Her work delves into themes of intimacy, spirituality, and the human experience, making her a true force in contemporary poetry.

📸 The Creative Vision:
Katie wanted images that reflected her poetic identity—introspective yet bold, deeply personal yet inviting. Together, we crafted portraits that capture her essence and the artistry behind her words.

✨ The Result:
The final gallery features a mix of elegant and expressive images that Katie can use across her digital platforms. Whether she’s sharing her poetry or engaging with her audience, these visuals will enhance her brand as a writer and creative.

➡️ Calling All Creatives:
Whether you’re a poet, artist, or entrepreneur, your online presence should reflect your unique story. Let’s create imagery that speaks to who you are and what you do. 💼✨

💍✨ When Taryn booked a mini-session with me to capture some sweet memories with her boyfriend, Zach, little did she know there was a big surprise in store! Zach had secretly reached out to me beforehand, letting me know he had “the ring” and was planning to pop the question! 😍💕

We plotted the perfect moment: once we found “the spot,” I gave Zach the signal to “check his shoes.” But Zach added his own little twist, pointing Taryn to “look at something” by the lake. After a bit of playful confusion (“Wait, what am I looking for?!” 😂), he finally took a knee and asked her to be his forever. And of course, she said YES! 🥂💍💖

Swipe to relive this magical moment and share in their joy as they left the session as newly engaged fiancés! 📸✨

✨ Grateful for the sweetest moments with this beautiful family today! They came all the way from San Angelo, TX, trusting me to capture their precious memories while here in DFW for a wedding they're photographing tomorrow. It’s truly an honor when fellow photographers choose me to document their own family story. 🥹💙 Thank you so much Miya and Mark!

✨ Seeing motherhood in a whole new light ✨

When my dear friend stepped into this set, it wasn't about the typical maternity glow — it was about capturing her strength, confidence, and the undeniable power she radiates. 💥🤍

I love helping my mom clients break the mold and see themselves as more than just their journey — they’re bold, fierce, and uniquely them. This session was all about embracing that!

✨ From the cozy morning moments of Ally and Jake getting ready at my studio to their intimate courthouse ceremony at the Tarrant County courthouse, today was an adventure of pure love and excitement! 🥂💍 We drove through laughter and anticipation, and after the beautiful "I do’s," we explored, capturing the spark and romance of their newlywed joy before heading back to Dallas. Days like this remind me why I love documenting elopements — every moment, every smile, every heartfelt whisper. 💫

Thinking of eloping or having a courthouse ceremony? Let’s plan an unforgettable, love-filled day (or road trip?) together! 🖤

🎃👻 Happy Halloween! 👻🎃 Calling all ghouls, goblins, and lovers of the mysterious! Before weddings swept me off my feet, I was deep in the eerie and intense world of metal bands and horror-inspired shoots with local artists, think scenes dripping in Ben Nye stage blood. My happy place? All things macabre—sharp edges, shadows, and unsettling vibes.

Then one day, a friend asked if I'd photograph her brother's wedding. I thought, "She must've hit her head!" 😅 I tried convincing her to find someone else, but she loved my personality and wanted something a bit… unconventional. I finally caved, and that wedding led me into a 17-year adventure that's still going strong. And no - I will not show you those photos. They are nothing like what I deliver today.

Now, my days are filled with joyous "I dos," but I haven’t forgotten my roots. If you're craving something outside the ordinary—think shadows, mystery, and all the spooky vibes—let’s make it happen! 💀✨

Hey, Alexa. Play Murder On The Dancefloor by Sophie Ellis-Bextor. 🎧 When I’m losing steam mid-afternoon, this is my go-to for an instant mood lift. Thanks, Saltburn, for reminding us of this song almost TWO DECADES later. Thanks to the movie, the song reached #2 on the UK Singles Chart, #98 US Billboard Hot 100, and #10 on the Billboard Global 200.

Their wedding day was filled with personal touches, laughter, and moments that reflected their unique love story. From the heartfelt vows under a canopy of trees to the joyous bubble exit, every detail was a true reflection of them.

Rachel looked radiant walking down the aisle, while Gates' smile said it all as he saw his bride. Together, they celebrated surrounded by the warmth of friends and family, with an intimate setting and sparkling lights adding the perfect touch to their evening.

As a photographer, there’s nothing more fulfilling than capturing love stories like theirs. Cheers to Rachel & Gates! 🥂 Here’s to forever filled with laughter, love, and beautiful moments.
