[Ron loves Elizabeth] Dallas Wedding Photographer

2010-09-03T16:38:00.000-07:00

This is going to one huge picture post! I just couldn't bear to break up all these lovely images of Ron and Elizabeth :)

Elizabeth and Ron booked me before they even met me, only a couple of months before the big day. I've never shot wedding clients I've never met before, but honestly I couldn't have expected more lovely clients! Not only are they devastatingly beautiful together, they are also simply madly in love which are my very favorite kind of people to shoot! And Elizabeth... she's drop dead gorgeous AND gregarious, down to earth, sweet, and at times, down right goofy! Ron is handsome, charismatic... and seriously, the way he looks at Elizabeth sometimes... so in love!

They got married on a beautiful day in July at the Orion ballroom, a gorgeous modernly decorated venue with an amazing view of the Dallas skyline. Some of these wedding images are my very favorite to date!

Elizabeth and Ron, you guys are beautiful inside and out!

Enjoy your images!

The beautiful Orion Ballroom

The even more beautiful bride

This is Jessica, the Maid of Honor, who I loved! She always made sure Elizabeth looked perfect

I love this sweet look between Elizabeth and her mom.

It's time for Ron to get ready!

So sweet! .. these pictures of Ron getting his son ready! I see where he get his good looks!

It's showtime!

I got to sneak Ron and Elizabeth away for some red-hot Bride and Groom Portraits!

My favs!

The ballroom was exquisitely decorated.

They played a hilarious "newlywed" game!

Congratulations you guys! Wishing the most blessed marriage!

Here is their wedding slideshow!

[Kenny loves Patricia] Dallas Wedding Photographer Part II

2010-08-24T08:11:00.000-07:00

Part II of Kenny and Patricia's Wedding Story

You can see part I here:

After a whirl-wind of portraits, it was time to get married! III Forks has a beautiful garden room lit with natural light where the ceremony was held. The ceremony was wonderful - instead of traditional bridal music, they chose beautiful and meaningful worship songs to set the tone of their ceremony.

They had a traditional tea ceremony afterward during the cocktail where they honored their elders. I loved seeing all the blessings bestowed on them. And then the reason why Kenny and Patricia chose III Forks for their venue began.... Dinner! All the guests were served some of the best wedding fare I've had!

All in all, the wedding was a lovely time for all.

Kenny and Patricia, I wish you all the love and blessings in the world for your marraige!

Enjoy Part II of your wedding pictures!

If you want to see all the pictures! Click on the slideshow :)

[Kenny loves Patricia] Dallas Wedding Photographer Part I

2010-08-17T09:12:00.000-07:00

Patricia was set out to plan an "Un-Wedding".

She threw tradition out of the window, and set out to plan a day devoid of pomp and circumstance. Instead, she wanted her wedding to be full of love, worship, good food, friends and family... all things meaningful to her and husband to be, Kenny.

She picked an unlikely venue, III Forks, which had an amazing Old World feel and vendors she believed in. For being an "Un-wedding", I think Patricia and Kenny knocked this wedding out of the park and we spent a long 12 hour day documenting an elegant, fun-loving, family filled event.

I am so happy for you two! It was an amazing day, and I believe that God will bless you with an even more amazing marriage!

Thanks to Catie Ronquillo for coming to second shoot with me and to my dear husband for assisting.

Today is their 1 month anniversary, Patricia's birthday.... and Part I of their wedding story.

Happy Birthday Patricia and stay tuned for Part II!

Wedding and Reception Venue: III Forks

Bridal Gown: BCBG

Bridal Shoes: Jimmy Choo

Florist: Dr. Delphinium

Photographer: Lynn in Love Photo

Makeup/Hair: Kristin Colaneri

hello amazing shoes. I think I love you.

Time for the boys to get ready!

Kenny & Patricia opted for a first look prior to the ceremony, which I love.

Because they opted for a first look, we had plenty of time exploring III Forks and taking some great wedding day portraits!

We experimented with some off camera flash! I love how sassy Patricia is in these!

Love these.

And just like that Kenny and Patricia were ready to get married!!

Stay tuned for Part II.

[Elizabeth] Dallas Bridal Photographer

2010-08-02T15:18:00.001-07:00

Meet Elizabeth.... stunning isn't she? I really couldn't wait to show you her gorgeous bridals! It was a hot, humid, and rainy afternoon when we did her bridals, but Elizabeth totally brought it to Off to the Grid to produce some of my favorite images to date!

I love this girl - yeah, she's beautiful, but she's also sweet, funny, goofy, and loving. Huge props to her mother and maid of honor Jessica who helped me style and keep Elizabeth's dress pristine for the big day!

I'm in love with Elizabeth's bridals and I hope you are too!

2010-07-24T21:33:00.000-07:00

Can I just tell you guys how much I loved this wedding? Elizabeth & Ron booked me before they even met me and I feel incredibly blessed to have been able to capture their wedding day. These two are not only beautiful, but they are also mad-mad-madly in love with each other - my favorite kind of people!! Their wedding at the Orion Ballroom was gorgeous, chic, and fun all at the same time!

I promised them a little sneak peek before they left for their honeymoon today to Cozumel, so here is a little taste for everybody.

Enjoy!! Next up, Elizabeth's stunning bridal portraits...just you wait!

[Kenny loves Patricia] Dallas Wedding Photography Sneak Peek

2010-07-20T08:40:00.000-07:00

Just a little bit of the goodness to come from this oh so fabulous wedding at III Forks.

I'm dying to show you the rest of this fun wedding! Congratulations Kenny and Patricia!!

[Courtney in love with Baby] Dallas Maternity Photographer

2010-06-29T11:53:00.000-07:00

I am so so excited to show you this session!! I do believe it's my favorite to date, although I am a little biased since it's featuring my bestie from college!

It was BFF at first sight! Courtney and I both went potluck when we were freshmen at Rice University. I remember being so nervous and excited that first day wondering if we were going to get along, much less friends... I had nothing to worry about, as God blessed me with a beautiful, sweet, vivacious, amazing sister for a roommate. Courtney and I were pretty much inseparable since the very first moment we met! And now 8 years after we've graduated, I love seeing seeing how our friendship has stayed strong and deepened despite the distance that has separated us!

I had the absolute honor and pleasure to visit Courtney in Pennylvania this past month where she and her husband resides. She lives in the most charming town in an even more charming yellow house and we had a wonderful time catching up and taking these lovely maternity picures. I am DYING over this pictures as Courtney makes the most beautiful mama-to-be ever!

Love you, friend!

The colors in this one are sooo dreamy!

Rawr! I love this one!

[Maggie + Family] Graduation Family Love Shoot

2010-06-25T11:12:00.000-07:00

Maggie is one of my faves! I've known her for 8 years now, and I'm excited to say that earlier these month, she graduated with not one, but TWO doctorate degrees! She got both her MD and her PhD and I could not have been more proud. Maggie is not just brilliant, but she is also one of the sweetest friends one can have.

Her family was in town for the big celebration, and she had a great idea to shoot ALL the strong women in her family since it wasn't very often everyone was together. Although it was a super busy weekend for both of us, we managed to pull together a sweet mini-session with her ladies.

We met up at the North Campus of UTSouthwestern where Maggie spent many hours completing her PhD research. Definitely bittersweet as Maggie has left us to do her residency in San Francisco.

We will definitely miss you, Maggie!

[Jesselyn of the The Shoestring Bride] Dallas Lifestyle Portrait Photographer

2010-06-19T13:47:00.000-07:00

It was so fun when Jesselyn contacted me to do some headshots for her! Jesselyn is a local Dallas/Ft. Worth blogger who just got married and documented her journey to create a fabulous wedding on a shoestring budget. Now she's happily married and wants to share her expertise to other shoestring brides! She'll be launching her wedding consulting business this summer and I can't wait to see how her business grows!

We met up at local coffeehouse, Crooked Tree Cofeehouse and did a fun and short mini-portrait session. Jesselyn was sweet and spunky and you can check her out here! The Shoestring Bride

[Maggie + Family] Graduation Family Love Shoot

2010-06-17T07:00:00.000-07:00

Another sneak peek for you!

My sweet friend Maggie graduated this past weekend and since her family was in town, she had a great idea to do a "generations" love shoot with her and her sister, mother and grandmother! Aren't they adorable? More to come!

[Cesar + Raquel] Dallas Wedding Part III The Ceremony

2010-06-15T22:58:00.000-07:00

The conclusion of Cesar and Raquel's lovely wedding. A big thank you to Mary Cyrus for second shooting with me!

You can see Part I here

and Part II here

After the ceremony, we got some sweet portraits of the newlyweds in some amazing backlit light. Then we joined the party. The reception hall was beautiful after being meticulously decorated by Raquel & Cesar's family and friends! and the dinner prepared by Raquel's father? Delicious!

the lovely details

I loved this tradition! The groom's groomsmen and friend went around the tables selling a piece of the groom's tie to bless the couple! Everyone had a fun time with it, and they ended raising quite a bit for the couple (you can see in the last picture how much!)

Mary and I joined in on the fun!

One last beautiful dance

Congratulations Raquel and Cesar! The wedding was beautiful and so were you too. It was an absolutely joy to share in your wedding day!

[Courtney in love with Baby] Dallas Maternity Photographer Sneak Peek

2010-06-15T13:53:00.000-07:00

Oh I am so so behind on my editing, but I couldn't resist posting a few pictures from this past weekend. I got to visit my dearest friend from college in Harrisburg, PA and shoot her maternity pictures.

Seriously, she is one the prettiest mamas-to-be ever and I am so excited about the images we were able to create together. So much more goodness from this session, but here is a just little peak of what's to come!

Love you, friend!

[Cesar + Raquel] Dallas Wedding Part II The Ceremony

2010-06-10T11:51:00.001-07:00

Cesar and Raquel planned a beautiful family-oriented wedding! Raquel's father gave the sweetest wedding service... in Portugese! Raquel's sister did the honors of translating in English. I loved how it was so personal and he kept Raquel and Cesar laughing throughout the service.

You can see Part I Here!

The boys arrived and were a fun-loving group:

Cesar was looking quite handsome in his tux!

We got some portraits of the ladies as well! I love love love the look of these three different bridemaid dresses! Aren't they stunning?

and just like that it was time for the ceremony!

We originally planned for a first look before the wedding, but at the last moment, Cesar and Raquel decided to wait to see each other at the ceremony. Oh, it was worth it to hear Cesar audibly gasp "oh, wow" at seeing Raquel for the first time walking down the aisle!

I loved when all the guests stretched out their hands to bless the new couple!

The newlyweds!!

Next up: Portraits and the reception!

[Cesar + Raquel] Dallas Wedding Part I

2010-06-09T23:55:00.000-07:00

I simply cannot wait to show you this wedding. In fact there are so many pictures I want to share, I'm going to have to break up their blog post into many parts!

I could not wait to document Cesar and Raquel's wedding. They are Brazilian with a capital B which means that their wedding was a family affair! From their flowers to the cake to decor, family and friends were involved in turning Hedrick's house, a venue tucked away in Lewisville, into a lovely wedding party. I couldn't believed it, but Raquel's father not only cooked the amazing food for the buffet dinner, and walked her down the aisle, but he also married them with one of the sweetest marriage ceremonies I have ever heard.

Cesar and Raquel are madly in love and I was so happy to see them sealed their love in marriage.

First up: Raquel getting ready!

Raquel's gorgeous details:

Raquel came to the venue sweet and nervous, but as her bridal party arrived, you could feel the excitement rise! It's the big day!!

Everybody was scurrying around to get ready, but then it was time to get the Bride dressed!

Raquel, you are breathtaking!

... a last sweet moment between Raquel and her sister who was getting married just two weeks later!

Next up! The Groom and the Ceremony

Sneak Peaks!

2010-06-08T21:10:00.000-07:00

I'm a editing maniac this week! Lots to blog, but here are some sneak peeks of goodies to come!

First off, this gorgeous Brazilian couple's sweet wedding!

Get Excited!

[Kevin in love with Sayda] Dallas Love Shoot

2010-06-01T12:16:00.000-07:00

Oh my, I absolutely adore this love shoot session. I already showed you two of my favorites here!

Sayda and Kevin have known each other for 14 years, and have been married for 10... and can I say that the magic is definitely still alive?? We had an absolutely wonderful time frolicking about the Dallas Arboretum and then Deep Ellum where Sayda and Kevin laughed and snuggled and made magic in front of my camera.

You guys were a delight and I can't wait to take pictures of your pups!

I hope you love your pictures as much as I do!!

This shot is becoming a favorite among my clients!

This one just might be my favorite

I DIE over this image!

I lied, this one is my favorite!!!

After the Arboretum closed, we hightailed it to Deep Ellum to my favorite bright walls!!

Sayda, you are absolutely gorgeous!!!!

[Dave in love with Leslie] Dallas Wedding Photography

2010-05-26T20:39:00.000-07:00

I was so excited to come second shoot for the ever fabulous Anna Routh at Leslie and Dave's beautiful Eco-chic Wedding at the Maple Manor.

Leslie and Dave love the outdoors and wanted to make their wedding as eco-friendly as possible. They enlisted Vera Green Production to help create their vision and I have to say that they did an amazing job! From the seashell escort cards to the tree sapling favors to the planter centerpieces, every detail was perfectly thought out. My favorite: In lieu of the guest book, Leslie created a framed print of a bare tree. Guests placed their fingerprints with green ink to look like leaves on the branches and signed their names! At the end of the night their tree was full of green love!

Dave and Leslie were so sweet and very much in love. They are fun-loving and laid back and I adored how they thoroughly enjoyed every part of their celebration.

Kick back and enjoy their amazing day!! There are lots of pictures!

Thank you, Anna, for letting me come and help document it!

First some of the delicious details:

Time for the boys to get ready! The groomsmen used these toy guns during the couple's first kiss as a surprise for the bride!

What a good-looking bunch of guys!

Meanwhile lovely Leslie was as calm and sweet as can be while getting ready!

It's showtime!

Don't you love the groom's face with his first look at his beautiful bride??

Such a gorgeous couple!

But now it's time to party!!

The cake was beautiful...but I'm in love with the dessert bar from La Duni!

After their getaway in a limo, they surpised everyone by emerging out from the side on a tandem bike!

Congratulations Leslie and Dave!! Have a wonderful time on your honeymoon!

[Kevin in love with Sayda] Dallas Love Shoot Sneak Peak

2010-05-23T01:13:00.000-07:00

I spent an amazing afternoon with Sayda and Kevin who were as wonderful as can be. It was a billion degrees outside, but it was really Sayda and Kevin who were hot hot hot!

They've been married for 10 years and it was amazing to see how the love just emanated from them. I adore every single picture from their shoot making me hard to pick some sneak peeks, but here are two that I'm absolutely in love with!

I had so much fun with you guys!!! Enjoy!!

[Rich in love with Cathy] Dallas Engagement Session

2010-05-17T01:21:00.000-07:00

It seems that I always leave each couple thinking "This was one of my favorite sessions!" I don't know, I just have a blast with each of my clients that I can't help gushing over their images.

Seriously though, Cathy and Rich's engagement session really does go to the top of my list! It's something about their sweet love for each other and their natural beauty in the gorgeous setting of the Dallas Arboretum that can't be beat. I already teased you with a few sneak peaks a few weaks ago, I can't wait for you to see the rest.

We got to play house in these cute houses set up at the Aboretum

They are sweet, but Cathy and Rich sure know how to turn the heat on!

I love, love, LOVE this picture. One of my favorites, ever!

After we got done with the Aboretum, we headed over to the West Village, where they treated me with a glass of wine at the Cork. I have the best clients!!

Happy Mother's Day!!!

[Will loves Lauren loves Cline] Dallas Family Photographer

2010-05-05T23:40:00.000-07:00

I'm so loving all my family sessions in the springtime!! I showed you a few sneak peeks from this beautiful family a few weeks ago and I just can't wait to show you more images of cute little Cline!

Lauren is an old friend from high school! We haven't seen each other since, so I was super excited when she contacted me to take some portraits of her family. Lauren is a beautiful as ever and she now is the mother to one of the cutest little boys I have ever seen! Seriously, I think Cline needs to be the next Gerber baby, hand this boy a modeling contract somebody!

Lauren, her husband Will, Cline, and I got to spend a warm afternoon in Highland Park. Cline was ALL BOY and Lakeside and Teddy Bear Park were perfect locations for him to get busy running around.

I had a blast with you guys! I hope you enjoy your pictures as much as I do!

I don't usually do much black and white, but this family looks AMAZING sans color.

Love these images.

Lauren, you look like an angel!

Cline was super excited to see the ducks!

Just a few more of this cutie petutie!

And here's my first ever slideshow! Hit the Arrow to Play!

Remember this sneak peek in the bluebonnets from a couple of weeks ago?

Get ready to feast your eyes on these spring colors!

It was a family affair for this maternity shoot! Jackie and Jeff, sweet little Kaitlyn, and their new little bun in the oven came up to Dallas from Austin for their shoot. It was simply a gorgeous day and Jackie's sister, Cathy, and her best friend, my sister Vi, had to come for a fun day in the sun as well.

I've known Jackie and Jeff for a long time and I'm so excited for the new little girl on their way! Congratulations, you make a BEAUTIFUL family!!

Jackie, you're such a cute little mamasita!

Can you tell that Kaitlyn is totally a Daddy's little girl? :)

2010-05-01T21:16:00.000-07:00

Today I got to spend the afternoon at the Dallas Arboretum with some sweet friends who are fabulously in love!

After taking time to create some wonderful images with each other, Rich and Cathy treated me to some wine and appetizers at the Cork and then my very first experience at Pinkberry. Can one have better friends than that??

Hope you enjoy your sneak peeks, I had such a great time with you guys!

[Will loves Lauren loves Cline] Dallas Family Photographer Sneak Peak

2010-04-21T19:43:00.000-07:00

I was so excited when an old friend asked me to take her families pictures.

It's been ten years since I've seen Lauren and she was as beautiful as ever and has created a wonderful family. Cline, her two year old, was ALL BOY and is one of the cutest toddlers I have ever seen.

It was awesome to see you again Lauren!

Enjoy your sneak peeks!!

[Jeff loves Jackie loves Kaitlyn love Baby] Dallas Maternity Love Shoot - Sneak Peak!

2010-04-16T19:36:00.000-07:00

Dallas is lovely in the Spring! Today I got to spend time with Jackie and Jeff and their blossoming family among the bluebonnets.

Jackie is my older sister's best friend and she and her husband Jeff are the sweetest couple! They have a wonderful little girl and another one on its way! They were visiting up from Austin and we knew we had to take advantage of the bluebonnets for their maternity shoot.

We had a delightful afternoon among the bees, butterflies and flowers today. I promised them a little sneak peak, so here they are!

Kaitlyn is simply adorable!

A little ladybug wanted to say hi to the new little one.

What a sweet family!

I had a blast with you guys today, can't wait to show you more!

[cesar in love with raquel] dallas engagement sneak peak

2010-04-07T23:23:00.001-07:00

One of the first words that Raquel ever wrote to me was "i hope you can make some magic, because we're not photogenic!"

I just finished shooting a wonderful engagement session for Raquel and Cesar. They are a sweet Brazilian couple who are IN LOVE. I told them I would have a couple of sneak peaks for them on the blog tonight. However, when I pulled up the images on my computer, there were too many beautiful pictures to choose from... so I decided to just put up the very first and last image from the first memory card.

Raquel... I beg to differ. You guys are the epitome of photogenic and together you make all the magic!

Yes, this is the very first picture, can these two be any more natural in front of the camera?

hot, Hot, HOT!

Just you wait for the full post on these two in a couple of weeks!!

Dallas Photog Shootout!

2010-03-06T12:49:00.000-08:00

A week ago, I got to be a part of a fun shoot out! The Photog Shootouts are local events put on so that photographers can get together, shoot, learn, and network with each other. We have our first Dallas shootout last week and had a blast!

The Dallas Photog Shootout was put by Amy Karp, Catie Ronquillo, Natasha Brown and Anna Routh. They had the shootout arranged at the Ryan Manor, which is a beautiful home open for events. The models were beautiful styled in 1940's clothes and were just amazing to shoot. I was able to meet some fantastic photographers and I'm so excited to hang out with them in the future. Despite the dreary day, we had wonderful teachers, and enough light to create a moody setting. I just love the portraits I came out of the shoot out with!

Location:
The Ryan Manor

Teachers:
Heather Essian (my wedding photographer!)
Amy Karp
Jason Huang

Make-up and Hair:
Emily Hudspeth
Adina Wright
Zsanae Panquerne

We learned off camera flash from Jason Huang. Melissa, the model was just darling.

[Jenna loves Baby] Dallas Maternity Photographer

2010-02-22T07:00:00.000-08:00

So excited about this post! This past week, I got to take maternity pictures for Jenna Cole! Jenna is a fantastic photographer and wonderful friend who has helped me so much these past few months. I love spending time with her as she is a sweet as can be and is 100% genuine.

She had already arranged for her photos to be taken by Bethany Jackman and asked if I wanted to come to take some pictures too. I jumped at the chance as I knew Jenna had a ton of great ideas for her shoot! Bethany was lovely and we all had so much fun taking pictures of pretty Jenna and her baby bump. I also got to meet Jenna's husband for the first time, and I loved watching them interact and seeing how much in love they were with each other!

I've tried to cut down how many pictures I was going to post, but couldn't help, I love them all too much now to show!! In fact, I think I love taking maternity pictures... so any soon to be mamas out there, give me a holler!

Are we agreed? Jenna is one hot mama!

No, not twins! Jenna and her husband are waiting to find out the baby's gender!!

I loved the pinwheels that Jenna brought! We made a little pinwheel garden and it was so perfectly whimsical!

You're so pretty mamasita!

We took advantage of the setting sun to take the beautiful golden sunflares with balloons

[huz loves lynninlove] A Vintage Valentine Love Shoot!

2010-02-07T22:29:00.000-08:00

I have a special session to share with you today... my own! My husband and I went to Austin, TX last weekend to do some vintage shopping. We stayed at Verdecamp, sweet little houses from 1930's that have been converted into guesthouses. We loved our little 1 bedroom house that was full of both vintage and modern charms.

I have been wanting to do a Valentine's shoot with husband for a while (a la Julia Child) and when we found this amazing 1940 green Cadillac in the backyard, I knew it was the perfect opportunity! I set my camera on a tripod, set my focus, and using both a remote and the timer, we were able to come away with a few sweet photos that I'm sure my husband and I will always treasure!

I hope this week leading up to Valentine's Day is full of love and romance for all you sweet readers!

[David loves Lauren loves Kaitlin] Dallas Family Portrait Photogapher

2010-01-24T22:55:00.000-08:00

How did I get so lucky to have such gorgeous clients? I can't enough of these family shoots! David, Lauren, and Kaitlin were super sweet, and their lovely home was a perfect backdrop for their portraits. Poor Kaitlin wasn't feeling very well, but she was still as cute as can be. David and Lauren certainly brought it for their romantics and we were able to create a record amount of amazing images with each other! But I'll let the pictures speak for themselves!

Thank you David, Lauren, and Kaitlin! I had so much fun with you!

I added a little texture to this one, and I love the way it looks like we're peaking in through a window on a little romance!

Um... I love the second picture!

I like having headshots!

Thank you for spending the afternoon with me!

[meet tonia] dallas portrait photographer

2010-01-21T19:40:00.000-08:00

Meet Tonia! She's my dear friend from med school and was my roommate up until I got married! We haven't seen in each other in a long time, so we planned a catchup lunch at Cafe Veracruz (which is awesome btw) in the Bishop Arts District in Dallas. The area was so cute, lunch quickly turned into an impromptu photoshoot!

Bishop Arts District is great for portraits with its bright colors and unique little doorways and Tonia totally lit them up. :) We had to stick to mostly headshots, because the poor girl was wearing a huge boot for a stress fracture she got from running and snowboarding! That's okay as you can see, she's a cutie!

Love this girl! She's always laughing and we always have a great time with each other!

This picture is funny, because we kept getting approached by VERY friendly, but creepy guys that afternoon who just wanted to say hi. Plus I like that it says SPARK PLUG in the picture on the left, since Tonia is definitely a spark plug!

See what I mean when I say she's always laughing??

Thanks for a fabulous afternoon, friend!

I am just beyond ecstatic to post this session! On a unusually blistering cold January afternoon, Kenny, Patricia, and I frolicked about town to shoot their love shoot.

Kenny and Patricia are pretty special to me...in fact, I probably owe the inception of lynn in love photo to them. I've known them for a long time now as Kenny, my husband, and I went to school together, and Kenny was my husband's roommate all throughout medical school and up to when we got married! Kenny is a smart and sweet man of God and Patricia is his spunky and adorable counterpart and I was so excited to hear that they were finally tying the knot!

Well, it was much to my surprise when they approach me back in August to see if I could photograph their wedding! This was when I was just photographing for fun, doing shoots for loved ones. I was really hesitant at first, but it was Kenny & Patricia's confidence in my work that really made me evaluate my photography and helped me realized how much I loved it! A few awesome shoots later, I knew I had to try out portrait photography at least part time... and so far it's been a dream come true.

Unfortunately, this was our third reschedule for their winter engagement shoot because of unforeseen circumstances and inclement weather... and even on this last reschedule, it was an incredibly cold and dreary day to shoot outdoors. But Kenny and Patricia toughed it out and worked it out at our sessions like rockstars! I had scouted an awesome junkyard for a possible location and have been saving it up for this special couple. It turned out awesome!

Guys, thanks for smiling so beautifully for me even though it was 30 degrees out and I am so excited about our Spring Love Shoot and of course your amazing wedding in July 2010!!

We started out at a playground and you can totally see Kenny & Patricia's playful personalities come out!

I'll be honest, and tell you that I'm IN LOVE with all the following pictures. The location was so fun with great props, and Kenny and Patricia's outfit and personalities just popped!

"P" for Patricia! Ha... we couldn't find a K for Kenny... but I don't think he minded. :)

An updated "American Gothic" for ya!

We ended up in the West Village for some last cold urban shots!

We finished our session at Starbucks to warm up our bodies and pull out the scrabble board! Haha... I think Patricia wanted to get away with me not doing a "feet" shot... but I got it aways :) Cute!

Thanks guys for your support, love and playing in the cold with me!

[manu loves shiri loves laurent loves katrena] Dallas Family Love Shoot

2010-01-01T12:50:00.000-08:00

Happy 2010! lynninlovephoto wants to welcome the new year in with our last shoot from 2009!

What do you get when you combine a rocking awesome family with the coolest venue? You get this amazing family love shoot. This was perhaps one of my favorite shoots of the year! I was so excited when Shiri contacted me to shoot her family. Shiri and Manu have been married for 15 years and are planning an a vow renewal this year! Since they are having it at the McKinney Cotton Mill, an old vintage warehouse, we decided to do their love shoot there as well. I've never been to this spot, but it was a photographer's paradise with amazing light coming through every window and corners filled with props and character.

Shiri and Manu's love for each other was so evident in every picture and Laurent and Katrena totally brought it for every shot. I couldn't have been more in love with the pictures we produced together.

Well I should let the pictures speak for themselves! This post is epic! Thanks Shiri, Manu, Laurent, and Katrena! I had a blast with you guys and I hope you love the pictures as much as I do!

We started off getting some cool shots next to these barrels.

Then we found these picture frames and had fun with them.

Then there is this cool 100 year old control panel.

And then we found this amazing couch.

While Shiri & Manu changed, we took an opportunity to take individual shots of Laurent and Katrena. They totally channelled Tyra Banks and gave me Fierce!

Um.... Shiri... you are beautiful!!

There was this amazing vintage bike!

I don't have to tell you how much I love the following two!

Happy New Year!!

[christmas loves snow] texas snowmen love shoot

2009-12-26T15:24:00.001-08:00

Happy Holidays! I don't remember the last time Dallas had a white Christmas! On Christmas Eve Eve, my 11 yo cousin and I were frolicking about in tshirts and jeans remarking on our usual 60 degree mild weather for the holidays. Well somebody must have heard us, because miracles upon miracles, it SNOWED on Christmas Eve! Snow that stuck and left a beautiful white cover on our scenery and set a festive cozy mood for our Christmas celebrations.

Well, on Christmas Day, I met a couple of characters near my home, and upon seeing how in love these two were, I insisted on doing a love shoot for them. They were sweet, but unfortunately, as the afternoon sun began to slowly melt away the snow, we had to bid each other adieu!

[patrick loves anna loves katie loves christian] family love shoot

2009-12-16T00:10:00.000-08:00

I met Anna and her family through the Lins. What a sweet and beautiful family! One of the perks of this job is getting to meet such lovely people. :) Anna and her family live very close to the Lins and I love that we were able to get such wildly different images for each of their families!

Again, as I am a natural light photographer, so I really do not like taking pictures indoors. However with blistering cold weather outside and the fact that Anna's home was GOR-geous, I was happy to oblige. Anna is 5 months pregnant at the time of this shoot and was seriously one of the prettiest mama to be I had ever seen. Anna and Patrick, you have wonderful family and I'm so excited for the new little one who is on its way.

I'm going to let the pictures speak for themselves!

I rarely do black and white pictures as I am a color junkie...but something about this family just screams black and white.

But I'll take them in color too!

Aren't Katie and Christian too adorable??

Wow, Anna you are beautiful!

Such a timeless couple!

I'm in love with these two pictures! Katie is welcoming the new baby!

Yay! Time to go outdoors to natural light! I love these portraits and the fact that the family dressed up for this shoot! Aren't they so stylish!?

Then after a change of clothes, we headed out for some outdoor fun! I adore ALL of the bright colors that Anna picked out for the family. So cute! Unfortunately our time was cut short as it ended up being way to cold for the kids, but I love what we caught in the time that we had!

Stumbled on this fun wall!

Can't get enough of this sweet family.

I love mom and daughter's stylish boots in this one!!

This series cracks me up!!

Last pictures of Christian before he's done for the day.

Thank you Chen Family, I had a blast with you guys! I hope you enjoy your pictures!

[amber loves baby] baby shower

2009-12-14T12:49:00.000-08:00

Even though I am a portrait photographer (and hopefully one day, a wedding photographer), when my friend Wendy asked me to take pictures at a baby shower that she was throwing, I thought it would be a great opportunity to try my hand at event photography. Although I found it wasn't really my style of shooting, I'm so glad I took the job.

Wendy's loft apartment was gorgeous and filled with such lovely light, and the shower she threw for Amber, the mother to be, was beautiful and filled with amazing details. Amber was glowing with her pregnancy and the party was filled with lovely ladies celebrating her.

Congratulations Amber! Thanks Wendy for inviting me celebrate with you guys!

Wendy's home was a perfect backdrop for the party!

Just look at all these details!

The lovely Mama to be with her daughter and sister. Amber & Wendy.

I kept catching Amber's daughter coming down the steps in various high heels :)

She's a cutie!

I kinda love this moment with these two besties both on the phone and adjusting each other before the socializing begins.

Let the Games begin!

The ever favorite toilet paper game.

And... guess what's in that diaper! (don't worry it's just crushed up candy bars!)

Many presents later...we concluded a great shower.

Again, congratulations Amber!

[a in love with m] wedding: reception

2009-12-08T12:45:00.000-08:00

Last but not least, the reception. After indulging in an extravagant cocktail hour, we headed to the ballroom which was beautifully lit in purple uplighting.

After a beautiful and fun first dance, the rest of the night, was filled with food, laughter, touching toasts by the siblings, and the bhangra dancing! Not many pictures on this post, as I put down my camera at some point and joined the dance party!

A and M, thank you for letting Jon and I share in your wedding day! It was simply beautiful and we wish you all the joy and love a marriage can bring!

*note: all pictures taken where as a guest at A&M's wedding, I was not an official photographer*

The beautiful ballroom lit and glowing in purple

A lovely first dance....

That turned into bhangra! and the couple was joined by their parents! How fun!

A's friend put on quite a show with a choreographed Bhangra routine that started off hours of dancing on the dance floor.

Last but not least, my favorite paring of photos: The bride and groom's hands... The bride's intricate henna and the groom's adorable mehndi's :)

[a in love with m] wedding day: anand karaj

2009-12-08T11:30:00.000-08:00

The wedding ceremony room was beautiful, every wall decorated with bright colors.

Here is the excerpt from the program that explained the Anand Karaj - the Sikh Wedding Ceremony.

"The Sikh wedding ceremony is called Anand Karaj, literally meaning ceremony of bliss. During the Anand Karaj, the bride and groom walk around the Guru Granth Sahib- the Sikh Scriptural Canon,. This act symbolized the central role of the Guru plays in Sikh life and tradition.

As the couple circles the Scripture, the collective sings a composition... that extols the ideal relationship of a human with Vahguru, and in the context of the wedding cremony, this relationship is extended to the bride and groom."

The songs of the Anand Karaj were so beautiful, while I didn't understand the singing themselves, the descriptions in English provided for us where lovely as "my soul is colored with love" and "my lotus heart sings."

When A & M circled around the Guru Granth Sahib 4 times, to me it seemed like such declaration of their commitment to each other and their religion. Just beautiful!

The guests came and payed their respects.

The room was filled with glorious colors!

The ceremony begins. Amandeep's sister and brother in law led the group in singing.

The Bridal Procession!

A and M begin to circle.

Isn't M breathtaking?

After the ceremony, they treated us to yet another yummy buffet!

Up Next: The reception!

[a in love with m] wedding day: milni

2009-12-08T10:10:00.000-08:00

We all filled a small room in the temple with little lighting, but it gave the next ceremony such a beautiful reverent atmosphere.

When the groom's barat reaches the wedding venue, the Milni ceremony is peformed. The bride's relatives give a warm welcome to the groom and his relatives with flower garlands. This is done is descending order, beginning with the eldest.

I thought this was a truly wonderful way to say that this was now one family!

The Milni begins with prayer (or a speech?) I couldn't understand this part :)

The exchange of the garland begins. I absolutely loved this part.

First the grandparents

Then the fathers

The brothers began nicely, but progressed into a friendly rastle, but it's all good!

There was a brief fake-out between the sisters, but they hugged A instead.

The mothers were simply beautiful.

Next up: The Anand Karaj!

[a in love with m] wedding day: barat

2009-12-08T09:59:00.000-08:00

Saturday morning, was a cold day in Long Island, but you wouldn't have known it with all the love that warmed the celebration morning of A and M's wedding.

I know very little about Sikh weddings, so I'll try to describe as much as I know about each part.

We arrived early to the temple to begin the ceremonies. A's mother gifted me a beautiful pink Indian suit to wear. At the temple, we covered our heads with saris and scarves to pay our respects. Then we met outside to begin the Barat!

The Barat is when the wedding procession where the groom's family and friends accompany him to arrive to meet the bride's family at the wedding venue. Customarily the groom, dressed in his wedding attire, is seated on a decorated white mare and is led by the Baraati, his family and friends who dance and play music, to his new family!

The beautiful white mare

"It's in my blood!"

Looking forward to meet his new family

The Barat Begins!

A's friends play music and dance.

The bride's family awaits.

As his family dances, Amandeep takes it all in!

Next up: The Milni!

[a in love with m] wedding: welcome dinner

2009-12-08T09:10:00.001-08:00

My husband and I had the wonderful privilege of attending his best friend's wedding last weekend. We traveled up to Long Island, NY to witness one of the best wedding celebrations I have ever been a part of! Now, I've never been to an Indian wedding before, much less a Sikh wedding and was blown away at how it was filled with color, beauty, love and reverence! I will be referring to the groom and bride as A & M for the rest of my posts to protect their privacy.

Of course, A and M had hired a wonderful team of photographers/videographers for their event, but they gave me the okay to take as many pictures to my hearts content. And so I did, and managed to capture an epic amount of images throughout the weekend. Because there are so many, I'm going to break up these event into installments on my photoblog.

First up, is this welcome dinner. On Friday, after we arrived at the Hilton Hotel where the wedding was held, A's family held a welcome dinner for all the weary travelers. The dinner (and the rest of the weekend) was a yummy buffet. During dinner, the stage in the middle of the room started to fill with all the women from Amandeep's side of the family who sang, danced, and rejoiced for the coming union.

The groom with his beautiful bride and then with my husband.

The women in the room were called to gather and sing. The drum were brought out, and the women sang, and prayed, and danced.

I sort of fell in love with Amandeep's mother who is in the purple. She was so joyful, warm, and welcoming!

Aren't the colors just gorgeous?

A joins the party!

I adore this moment between all 3 generations!

The women continue to celebrate. And joined in by Amandeep's younger sister and brother... and then the whole family!

Just a few more colorful details before calling it a night!

[Tao loves Vi loves Thaden] Family Love Shoot

2009-11-30T09:44:00.000-08:00

Brrr... it's getting cold out there! Before the season changed, we got to take advantage of the beautiful November light one last time with a fabulous family shoot with my big sister's family! I love my big sister, she truly is fabulous and has been 100% supportive of all my photographic endeavors. I was super excited to shoot her family. My sister, who is also a photographer, is as beautiful as you can get and has always been my model for my shoots back in school. Now her whole family gets to be my models!

So on Thanksgiving day, we packed up the family and went to a nearby park in Highland Park. Whoa nelly, I was not prepared to shoot such energetic almost 4 year old. Thaden was on fire that day... all boy and all adrenaline and so excited to run around the park. I think he only sat still at 5 second intervals... meaning, I had to shoot fast!

All in all, we had a wonderful time, and I think we got some fantastic images!

We're started off with love shoot pictures between Vi and Tao since straight off Thaden ran off to play. They've been married 7 years and the magic is still alive!

We found the little guy on the swingset having a grand old time!

Sister wanted to swing too!

I like the way these turned out :)

A little family stroll down the hill.

I can never decide which portrait I like better, aren't they sweet?

Thaden really didn't want to have anything to do with my camera! He was too busy collecting sticks! I don't have to tell you how much I love my little nephew! At nearly 4, Thaden acts much older than his age. He's smart and inquisitive and when he puts his mind to something, he extremely determined and focused. I love the joy on his face as he examines his sticks!

A little frolicking in the grass.

I don't usually do much black and white, but some pictures look much better sans color.

Why hello little man, you are totally toddler GQ!

What do you guys think? Black/white or color?

I really adore this little blazer outfit his mom picked out for him!

Ha! I think this is the only picture where I managed to get Thaden to look at my camera! So cute!

For the last spot, Vi found some mistletoe which was perfect for the holidays!

Had a blast with you guys! Can't wait for some more camera loving for Thaden's birthday in a week!

[stephen loves cindy loves noah] family love shoot

2009-11-23T22:27:00.000-08:00

Oh boy! I had a fabulous family session this past weekend with the Lins. Cindy is one of my besties' older sister so I delighted when she contacted me to do some holiday family pictures for her. Nothing is better than falltime in Dallas and I was so glad we got to take advantage of the light. Even though we only had a hour to shoot, the Lins were amazing, and we shot a crazy amount of pictures in that hour. I have to say I was a little nervous about shooting a 4 year old toddler, but Noah was a doll and was always ready to smile for the camera. Whenever he got bored of me, we took advantage of the time to take some smoking hot love shoot pics for Cindy and Stephen!

If the rest of my clients are like the Lins, I would be on cloud nine! Thanks guys, I hope you love your pictures as much as I do!!

Although, I don't plan to take many of my portraits inside, the Lins wanted a few formal pictures in the house, so obliged. I loved these two. Can you tell that Noah loved being the center of attention?

It was adorable to see how much Noah adores his mother, and was complete buddies with his dad. Love the tender moment in that second picture between the two guys.

When Noah decided to run out, I asked Cindy and Stephen for some fierceness for a few of their couple pictures. Wow. Did they ever deliver! Cindy, you're one hot mama!

I love this next series. I adore the idea of peaking in on a secret rendezvous in the library!

I think every photo shoot should include individual headshots!

Finally we got to go outside for some natural light photography... my faves!

We did a quick outfit change and ran off to a nearby park. Noah turned on his charms again...how can you not love that sweet little grin!

People are always asking me what they should wear in a photoshoot. I always say "colors!" See what I mean... it just makes a picture just POP.

Man, seriously, if every kid I photograph was like Noah....!

The Lins were soo comfortable in front of the camera... I think it totally shows forth in their images!

At this point in the shoot, I started to fight hardcore with sunflares in my pictures...causing them to look washed out and distorted. After a while, I thought why fight it?? I started playing around with the effects that the flares were causing and I really love how they turned out!

I think the flares make the scene look just magical!

Lins, thanks for a wonderful time!

[dad in love with mom] love shoot

2009-11-09T07:17:00.000-08:00

This past weekend was beautiful. Gorgeous Dallas November days.... So when my parents asked me to take some portraits of them, I jumped at the chance. The light could not have been more perfect! Also it didn't hurt to have some great models :). My parents are avid gardeners so I love that we got a chance to use their house as our location. Seriously, too perfect!

Mom and Dad, you guys were awesome! I hope you love your portraits as much as I do!

------

Guys, don't be jealous, but these are my genes! Can my mom be any prettier? She's going to kill me for revealing this, but she turned 60 only a few ago, but certainly don't look it!

And these are my adorable parents.

Mom, you're stunning!

Can they be any more adorable? I love that my dad always makes my mom laugh.

Outfit and Hair change!

Friends, if you ever wonder where I get all my little poses from, wander no further.

Of course, some things you just can't teach, they are naturals!

And my dad, he's handsome, huh?

The last shot of the day, and it was a keeper

Love you mom and dad!

[texture]

2009-11-05T13:40:00.000-08:00

I just purchased a set of textures! I've never worked with them before... but I love how these first two turned out. Of course I adored the pictures before processing them, but I feel the texture made the overall images much more punchy! Definitely something to expect when you get a Fine Art Edit from me in the future! You can check out the original pictures in the post below.

[opie in love with mary] wedding

2009-10-26T20:02:00.000-07:00

Two weekend ago, I accompanied the fab Jenna Cole to second shoot the wedding of lovely Mary and Opie. Wow, I simply loved this fall wedding. Mary was able to design a wedding that was simple, classic, and stunning all at once. I loved her vintage styling and DIY details. It really was all perfect. The day was chilly, but the overcast skies provided amazing light for photos. The ceremony and reception was filled with love and joy from the happy couple and their families. Congratulations, Mary and Opie, may your marriage be as wonderful as your wedding day! This is a huge post since I loved the pictures so much!

Look at the gorgeous details. Mary purchased this beautiful vintage sheath from a consignment shop. I was in love with the train. She made her wheat bouquets, birdcage veil, and garter herself.

Check out her fingerwaves! So charming!

Um, Mary, you are beautiful!

We arrived at the ceremony/reception site at Firewheel Golf Park to find the cutest bunting flags decorating the site.

Their bridal party were decked out in brown, and were all so sweet and funny.

Don't you just adore them? They look like straight out of my Anne of Green Gable fantasies.

Mary's dress framed her irish/celtic tatoo oh-so-perfectly.

The ceremony was sweet and heartfelt.

The reception was warm with candlelight

How cute is this couple. I love when a couple kicks out tradition and infuse their wedding with their own individual style and personality. They served pie and a hamburger buffet instead of cake and the usual wedding fare.

You all know I love a photobooth! Mary and Opie made their's Star Trek themed complete with a cardboard cutout of Captain Kirk and a Yoda doll! The guests loved it!

As the chilly night set in, the guest warmed up by dancing to irish jigs and a wonderful mix of songs that the bride's brother dj'ed for them. Did I forget to mention that Mary was rockin' some red heels? Yeah, she totally did.

Really. The night was perfect. Just perfect.

Sonia and Tony are friends and classmates of mine from residency. I have the privileged of watching them fall in love and then tying the knot in a wonderful Japanese/Peruvian/Lebanese/Hungarian celebration back in May. Before the big day however I had the honor of taking their engagement pictures. They now live in Denver for their fellowships and we always miss their presence. I wish y'all the happiness in the world. Thanks for letting me take your pictures!

We started in their home first to get relaxed.

and then we moved on to a park in Highland Park for these sweet romantic pictures

I l-o-v-e this shot: timeless!

and then we got casual and played in the dappled sunlight

um... i love this picture so much.

and then sonia and tony rocked it in front of this red and black wall. 10,000 points to anyone who can tell where this is!

Details

2009-10-26T15:40:00.000-07:00

I can't wait to shoot with you! Here are some details and FAQ's that will help our session go smooth and ensure that we have fun!

1. Where do we shoot?

I am a on-location photographer. As a natural light photographer, the only requirement I need from a location is good natural light so I can create the most beautiful images for you. Other than that, the location is your choice! For our two hour session, we can fit up to two locations as long as they are close to each other in distance. There is an extra travel fee for locations that are 25 miles from downtown Dallas.

2. What time will be our session?

Again, I need great natural light to create beautiful photos. This means that if we are outside as most of my sessions are, we need shaded areas and no direct sunlight that causes harsh lighting and squints. Therefore all of my sessions are scheduled two hours before sunset which is the "magic hour" in photography and provides beautiful lighting.. These days that means between 5pm and 7pm.

3. What do I wear?

I suggest clothes that reflect your personality. However, I always believe that bright colored clothes photograph so beautifully! I also love it when families or couples wear clothes that don't not necessarily match, but definitely complement each other! That may mean a common accent color, or colors that work well together. We should have time for a change of clothes, so you can bring one set of casual clothes, and then a dressier outfit. Be aware of your body type and choose clothes that shows off your assetts. Fitted clothes will photograph much better than loose, baggy clothes. I also absolutely love when people bring props to their shoots to help make their session more interesting and fun!

About Me:

Hi there! My name is Lynn and I'm in love with photography and people. As a Dallas natural light portrait photographer, I love getting to know my clients and documenting their loves, whether for each other, their family or kids!

A little background on me, I graduated from Rice University with a BA in Art and Art History with a focus on photography. While I turned to other pursuits as a career, I missed my creative side during my training and have turned back to photography as a side job.

Since starting this business, I've fallen more in love with this job as it allows me to connect with amazing clients and create beautiful images for them. My style? I love clean, bright, natural, and stylish imagery that really reflects each person's personality. Each session will be on-site at a location of your choice. I like to have fun during our sessions to ensure natural postures and expressions. It's about the real you! I'll provide some guidance as we shoot so we can produce the best photographs together!

I love what I do and I hope I get to spend time with you! Portraits and natural light photography are my specialty and I'd love to photograph your engagements, senior pics, family, bridals, or just because pictures.

I am also doing a limited number of weddings a year. I create custom wedding packages for each of my brides which start at $2000.

Peruse my blog-site as there are tons of examples of my work. If you think we're a good match, just shoot me an email at lynninlove{at}gmail.com. I can't wait to connect with you!
