Emily McCall Photography bio picture

My philosophy . . .

I love working with people who are fun.  Genuine.  Real.  And that’s what my photography is really all about: capturing the real you.  I can see the connections between the members of your family and the beauty in each one of you -- and that’s what I want to capture with my camera. 

I don’t do the typical matching-outfits portraits, or the canvas-backdrop-strobe-lighting-say-cheese portraits.  I don’t want you to worry about having perfect hair, perfect smiles, and the kids on their best behavior.  Relax.  Have fun.  Be yourself.  I want to show you your family the way I see it through my lens: happy, beautiful, flawless in spite of the flaws.
 
So when I show up for your session, you don’t have to do any pretending.  Just be real.  I like t-shirts and jeans and flip-flops.  And jammies.  And mussed up hair and lollipop-stained faces.  I love hugs and tickle fights and peals of laughter, and snuggles and kisses too.  These things are real.  This is the way I want to remember my family, and it’s the way I want to help you remember yours.

Dana + Zack e-session

I have been a crazy-busy lawyer the past two weeks, and the result is that I’m falling further and further behind on proofing and blogging. . .  But never fear, Dana and Zack!  I haven’t forgotten about you!  Here’s a sneak peek from your engagement session!

We had our session on cold and really windy day, but these two were troopers.  They braved the cold and followed me all over Fair Park and Deep Ellum.

Now, Dana and Zack are two of the goofiest, funniest people I’ve ever met.  They kept me cracking up the whole time and I’ve got so many great outtakes!  But the best part is the way I think their personalities shine through in these photos . . .
