Ali Grown Up {Dallas Senior Portrait Photographer}

Tracy Allyn Croysdale — Sat, 28 Nov 2009 15:53:53 +0000

Before I even start I just have to say, "WOW!" Check out the amazing eyes on Ali!!! She has absolutely piercing eyes with such a gorgeous color.

Ali and her mother met me at the Dallas Arboretum for a combo session... senior portraits with a few of mother / daughter thrown in for their Christmas cards. Both of them are so beautiful. Ali reminds me very much of a model with her height and those eyes. But that isn't all she has... she has the brains to back up all that beauty. She will be graduating from the Townview Law Magnet this year!

And I do love a girl who is willing to lay on the ground for a shot... in the mud, no less!!!

Congratulations Ali... I hope you enjoy your preview!

Girl Power {Dallas Child Photographer}

Let me introduce to you two of the most amazing, spirited, fun-loving girls ever! Zoe & Lauren could not be more opposite... but both are such incredible young ladies. We had such a great time at the Dallas Arboretum and I think we captured who they are.

Here are a few from the day... I hope you enjoy them Kevin & Shelley!

Double Deep Ellum Day {Dallas Child & Family Photographer}

Tracy Allyn Croysdale — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 01:02:39 +0000

Recently I spent two sessions in one day in Deep Ellum... it is a great place for a session, whether it is children, baby, family, engagement, or senior portraits! It just so happened that the two clients I had that Sunday each wanted to try an urban session. And the coincidences didn't stop there... both families also had two boys and they were both the same ages! How weird (and cool) is that?!?

So that morning I met up with Stacie and Trent and their two beautiful boys. What a gorgeous family! We tried a few in Deep Ellum and then headed over to Flagpole Hill near White Rock Lake for a little nature.

Later that afternoon I met up with Amy and Wes and their cute boys. We stayed around Deep Ellum and tried a few locations I haven't shot at, like the Latino Cultural Center... love those orange walls!!! And the boys loved running around! Active, active, active... and fun! Here are a few from Deep Ellum, part deux...

McKinney, Sweet McKinney {Dallas Family Photographer}

Tracy Allyn Croysdale — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 01:05:22 +0000

So, after hearing so much about what a great place to shoot downtown McKinney, Texas is I finally made it. And let me tell you... I plan on many more portrait sessions there! I loved it! I met up with Paul and Stefani and their gorgeous kids, Jace and Sophie. We ventured all over the square and the nearby grain mill. Such a beautiful day and so many great locations!

I had so much fun with you guys... great to see you again after so many years, Stefani. Zeta Tau Alpha at UNT was a long time ago and I can't get over how much you still look like you could be there right now! I'm jealous!

Here are just a few images from the day...

My Sweetie

Tracy Allyn Croysdale — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 18:32:18 +0000

It has been a busy, busy season! I'm finding it hard to post previews on the blog and am just jumping right into the proofs. But I couldn't resist posting this image of my sweet son, Campbell. Took this over the weekend while playing out in the front yards with my best friend/neighbor, Ninotchka. I love his messy haircut that is in need of a cut so badly. He just looks so relaxed... I may even use that as my Christmas Card!

Rainy Day... but a beautiful Skye {Dallas Child & Family Photographer}

Tracy Allyn Croysdale — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 02:57:30 +0000

Sunday afternoon... more rain! We have had so much this fall! It is kind of cramping my session style, you know? But the rain didn't stop me from meeting a beautiful Skye. (Sorry Skye... I'm sure you have heard that your whole life!)

Skye and Chris and their adorable son, Connor had me over to their home for an indoor photo session. Connor is such a cutie! We got some family photos and then I enjoyed watching the little man play. I loved his laughter when Chris pretended to trip. He couldn't get enough of it! Which made Skye laugh as well!

I hope you enjoy your preview guys... and it was wonderful to meet you!

Golden Light {Dallas Family Photographer}

Tracy Allyn Croysdale — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 03:04:22 +0000

This week I photographed such a gorgeous family... two of the cutest little blonde haired boys, their beautiful mom and handsome dad. We explored around our own neighborhood... White Rock Lake and Flagpole Hill. We hit the golden hour just right. Patrick and Declan are so cute and that light on their little toeheads was perfect. Could.not.have.asked.for.more!

Enjoy your preview Bonnie and Keith! And happy birthday, Bonnie!!!

Sean + Jenna = Love

Tracy Allyn Croysdale — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 03:30:04 +0000

I don't shoot many weddings... I'm mostly a portrait photographer. But on occassion I do love a good wedding and I was honored when Sean & Jenna hired me to shoot their wedding in Minnesota. I had met them last summer when I was visiting my sister in Minneapolis. And this is one fun couple! There were so many images I wanted to include on their preview... here are just a few from the day. Enjoy your preview, Sean & Jenna!
