Sol Irlandes Mexican Grill

Anybody around here like Mexican food?!? Yes of course!!! Here are some shots from a project that I shot for a friend of mine, Danny Munoz Chibli. He is in the process of redesigning the website for Sol Irlandes Mexican Grill. Be on the lookout for the new and improved site featuring photography by Brittany Nicole! Great Food + Great Friends = Fantastic Times!

Be sure to stop by the bar for one of their tasty margaritas! I can personally vouch for their incredible bartenders! :)

Sabrina | White Rock Lake | Bridal Photographer

What a fun day! The day started out with picking up an assortment of flowers and creating my very first wedding bouquet. Yeah, what do you think? I apparently came home with an odd flower combination because my mom wondered how I was going to produce a photographic bouquet from the medley. Thanks mom! Always love your support. :) Just kidding mom. In all honesty, she helped me put it together, and we had a good time. So thanks mom! Then I went to pick up my gorgeous model, Sabrina, for the day, and that's when the fun really began! We stopped at Artistik Edge Hair Studio to get a fabulous up-do which is also where friend and fellow photographer, Caleb Fleming met up with us...check his work out! After Sabrina’s hair was done, we ran over to Northpark, where we met up with make-up artist Jennifer Bartram at Sephora. She transformed Sabrina’s look, making her eyes pop and enhancing her already beautiful facial features! Good job team – now we were ready to go for the shoot!!!

From there, Caleb and I took over and started in with our fun. We posed Sabrina here and there and, of course, all the cars honked at our model along the way. Of course, since Dallas seems to have developed a rainy season, we shot in overcast skies again. Luckily, however, the rain held off long enough for us get in a good shoot! First, we took her to White Rock Lake, then some cute Victorian homes and finished up our session at the Rosewood Crescent Hotel. Here is a taste of our day! Enjoy!




Thanks for looking! Leave the love!

Solaris Studios | Business of Wedding Photography Workshop!

This weekend I had the opportunity to attend a "Business of Wedding Photography" workshop by Aric Hoek of Houston, TX. Being new to the wedding photography industry, I'm doing a great deal of learning through practice shoots, attending workshops, meet ups with other starting photographers, sharing info and skills. So much to do! I'd love to go over the entire workshop for you from beginning to end and share everything I learned, but I know many of you would not be interested in my blabbing on and on about business. So I'll just share some of the basics with you. :)

This is also somewhat of a to do list for myself, so I remember all the things I need to do to stay focused and remain productive and proactive!

1) Shoot, shoot, shoot!

2) Keep my website and blog updated with new images from my shoots.

3) Nail down my studio pricing and policies, don't want any legal trouble! ;)

4) Master the business side of things, I've ALWAYS leaned more to the creative side - so its a stretch for my brain to understand the ends and outs of the business side - but my photography is my passion and this is a major part of it so I'm giving you my word now that I WILL learn the business aspects and get them down!!!

And last but certainly not least:

5) ADVERTISING!!!! Yes, I'm going to start looking into my best options for advertising....scary...this means big money! (So please if you have any good ideas please leave a comment) And with advertising, I will, hopefully with a few more bridal portrait sessions under my belt, look into entering a Bridal Show soon! Yeah! Fun! Brides, brides and more brides! :)

So those are just a few of the many points discussed this past weekend, that are now on the top of my to do list! Thanks for reading! Leave some love ;)
