Jacy & Sam – Wedding Reception at The Tribute Golf ClubThe Colony, Texas

April 11, 2017 Details

Look at that yummy golden hour light! Could I ask for more? I think not! After Jacy and Sam said I do we pretty much had the most perfect sunset light to explore a little bit around the Tribute’s golf course. The course views and the sliver of the lake in the background paired with these two made for a very happy photographer – this girl!!! Sam is so sweet to Jacy and since I hadn’t met him until the wedding day this was my first opportunity to see them together. As the sun finally set it was time to party though and we headed in for a night of dinner, dancing and allot of partying! Jacy and Sam hit the dance floor and spent quality time catching up with their friends, laughing and mingling with guests. I loved their bubble gun exit – SOOO many bubbles!!!!

Huge thank you to all the vendors who helped make this day so perfect for Jacy, Sam and their families:

Allie & Kane – Wedding Reception at River Crest Country ClubFort Worth, Texas

April 6, 2016 Details

Tracy Autem Photography 2014 https://tracyautem.com

River Crest Country Club was just stunning for Allie & Kane’s wedding. This was my first wedding to photograph at the club and I just fell in love with the ballroom, the staff and the location. It was the perfect place for this elegant and classic wedding reception. Tami Winn created an amazing space complete with custom gold dance floors, hedge walls, custom signage and an outdoor space that was so welcoming. A gospel choir entertained the guests during cocktail hour before Downtown Fever took the stage to welcome the bride and groom into their first dance. All night these two were rarely apart and spent the evening chatting up friends and family or shaking it on the dance floor. It was such a fun night – all their guests had a blast. I have never seen so much spilt alcohol – a sure sign of a GOOD party! As the night came to a close we said farewell and sent Allie & Kane off to Thailand for their honeymoon.

Congrats you two – it was really a pleasure being with you. I could see the Love you have not only for each other but also for God. I could see the Lord’s hand in every working part of this day. My favorite part of the entire day was when Allie’s little sister asked me what my favorite wedding was. I responded all of them – each for different reasons. She wanted to know what my favorite part of this day was and it was a no brainer – God – I could see God in every part of this day. It was so amazing!

Thank you Tami for pulling together this couple’s dream day and for bringing us together as vendors!

Allie & Kane – Romantic Couples Portraits & Bridal PartyKimball Art Museum, Water Gardens & Broadway Baptist

April 5, 2016 Ceremony

Allie & Kane are just too cute. They are all about each other and it is so obvious in every photo. They have known each other since they were little kids so there is an ease to their relationship that is unique. Their families are truly close friends, their friends are each others friends – it is so special. After an emotional first look at the hotel we hit the Kimball Art Museum & the Fort Worth Water Gardens for some romantic portraits and fun bridal party pictures. Allie likes classic but clean and modern so the locations were a perfect fit for their day. Then it was on to the ceremony to say I do and get the party started.

Caroline & Mitch – Wedding Reception at Ashton Depot

November 23, 2015 Details

These night time shots kill me! Like, make me jump up and down I’m so happy for the opportunity to make the dark look beautiful! I think almost all photographers love beautiful natural light but sometimes that just isn’t what your day has. In the fall/winter in Texas with the early sunset time it is often dark when the ceremony ends. We take that challenge and love to create some moody, romantic lit portraiture. I love this series of images of Caroline & Mitch in the garden at the Ashton Depot and out front with the lights of Fort Worth behind them. The depot is one of my favorite venues in Fort Worth – it is always beautiful and the service and food there is just perfect. Caroline & Mitch’s guests enjoyed the entertainment – from a fun caricature artist to the fab band. A sparkler send off and on to the Honeymoon!

Caroline & Mitch – Wedding Ceremony at Broadway Baptist Church

November 22, 2015 Ceremony

Caroline & Mitch were adorable and I am thrilled to be sneaking in this amazing peek at their wedding before the Thanksgiving holiday. Caroline looks like a Hollywood starlet and the beautiful deep fall colors and greenery at this wedding just had me swooning. We met up with the girls for some preparations at the Sheraton in downtown Fort Worth before heading over to Broadway Baptist. I love this church for its beautiful architecture and gorgeous getting ready room! We had a perfect day so we did many of the bridal party and family portraits outside the church before the ceremony. When it was finally time to walk the long aisle Caroline was all smiles and Mitch was so excited to see his beautiful bride. My favorite part of their ceremony was the moments directly after – where I caught this great image above. As they walked out of the chapel they were hugs, kisses, closeness and lots of chatting about their days. Those first moments as man and wife are always a winner for me. I get to be present for something that is so private and special. Congrats you two!

Madison & Holt – Wedding Reception at The Modern Art Museum Fort Worth

July 31, 2015 Details

Madison & Holt’s wedding reception at The Modern was a non stop party! These two stayed close all night and I saw SO much love between these two. A couple on a crowded dance floor gets to drop everything away and just be them. I am pretty sure that Madison has always hoped for a man to look at her like this, looking at this first photo you can see Holt adores her. Getting to capture moments like this is why I do this job and I think I have the best job in the world. Their party wasn’t just full of emotion but it was gorgeous too! Towering clean lined centerpieces with a classic aesthetic paired perfectly with this couples personality. Thanks to all the vendors who made the pretty happen:

Madison & Holt – Wedding Ceremony at Robert Carr Chapel at TCU

July 30, 2015 Ceremony

I have said it before and it’s time to say it again. BEST part of every wedding – THIS! After the couple walks out of the church their first moments as man and wife are the best. I GET to be with them for it and it just makes my day. Love that as they exited the church this couple immediately was all hugs, squeezes and big smiles.

Madison and Holt prepared for their wedding at The Renaissance Worthington in downtown Fort Worth. Madison selected to have her Mom & Sister help her with dressing and then surprising her bridesmaids with a big reveal in her gown. We always love the reactions on friends faces to the bride! Holt and his men took over the lobby for final details. After arriving at TCU the couple selected to share a private moment with out seeing one another around a door. A few quick words of good luck, and see you soon before it was time to head down the aisle at Robert Carr Chapel.

Madison & Holt – Wedding Portraits at Robert Carr Chapel & The Modern Art Museum

July 30, 2015 Romantics

In love with these first two images. The top photo perfectly captures the unique reception location of The Modern. The treat of your guests (and yourselves) strolling through the galleries on your wedding day is pretty special. Below is a fun one with a different composition showcasing these two cuties but also the classic architecture of Robert Carr Chapel on the Texas Christian University campus. When you pair such a timeless wedding ceremony location with a space like The Modern for your wedding reception you get a fabulous balance of photo backdrops. So excited to share Madison & Holt’s romantic couple portraits! -Tracy

Clare & Blaine – Wedding Reception at The Four Seasons Resort Ballroom

July 13, 2015 Details

One of my favorite moments from this wedding was watching as Clare’s two sisters gave their toast. I remember well as Clare was toasting her sister at her wedding a few years ago so it was beautiful to see her on the receiving end. Tears were shed but at the end everyone laughed and they moved this wedding reception into party mode!

The ballroom looked stunning in coral peach tones with gold accents. The tables were arranged in a family style atmosphere with long rectangular tables. Everything sparkled! As the night went on the dance floor stayed packed, everyone had fun and it was over all too soon! As the evening wound down Clare & Blaine shared a private last dance before exiting to a confetti explosion! Congrats you two!

Clare & Blaine – Wedding Portraits at The Four Seasons in Dallas / Las Collinas

July 12, 2015 Details

This crowd was FUN! Can you tell? I loved this couple and their wild and crazy friends. After a sweet ceremony at Clare’s home church in Colleyville we headed to the Four Seasons in Las Collinas for their wedding reception. Before kicking off the party though we had to take portraits. We took SOOO many that I loved at this wedding that I am giving them their very own blog post!

Check out Blaine and his men. They are a dapper group and were all ready to cut up for the camera. They looked well put together in their gray suiting and fun socks! Blaine definitely owned his look and had a good time with his friends.

Claire and her ladies look completely classic with a kick of energy in their coral and bright summer bouquets. Their pale grey silver gowns with sheer necklines looked light and soft along side the yards of toulle of the brides gown. She rocked a completely chic top knot bun that looked flawless all night long.

Oh – and the kids. Look at those minis! Even they were enjoying their wedding day roles.

If that isn’t enough awesomeness, there are some killer romantic portraits of the bride and groom too! Clare and Blaine have playful spirits so some picking up, walking and some silly faces were a must! The golf course at this Dallas venue is the perfect wedding photography location as you can see from these stunning portraits.
