Two sisters left their corporate marketing careers to build Tabletop Marketing—a company that believes every brand has a story worth telling.

When creative powerhouse Mallory Hunter needed branding photos for her new business, we headed to a modern downtown Dallas loft to create images as dynamic and creative as she is. A fun, colorful personal branding session for a fellow creative entrepreneur.

THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY RUN THE LAKE HIGHLANDS WAS MORE THAN JUST A RACE, IT WAS A CELEBRATION OF COMMUNITY. SEE HOW THE JUNIOR WOMEN'S LEAGUE OF LAKE HIGHLANDS BROUGHT NEIGHBORS TOGETHER FOR A DAY FILLED WITH GENEROSITY, CONNECTION, AND HEART, AND WHY THESE CANDID MOMENTS ARE SOME OF MY FAVORITE TO DOCUMENT.

CREATIVEMORNINGS DALLAS REMINDED ME THAT CREATIVITY, COMMUNITY, AND TRUST ALL GO HAND IN HAND. READ ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE DOCUMENTING THIS INSPIRING EVENT AT LERMA AND WHY PEDRO LERMA'S MESSAGE ABOUT BUILDING TRUST RESONATED SO DEEPLY WITH ME AS A PHOTOGRAPHER AND BUSINESS OWNER.

SNAPSHOT SESSIONS ARE A RELAXED 30–45 MINUTE EXPERIENCE PERFECT FOR FAMILY UPDATES, MATERNITY, BRANDING, OR ANYONE WHO WANTS MORE TIME THAN A TYPICAL MINI SESSION.

THIS FAMILY SESSION AT THE LIMESTONE QUARRY WAS FILLED WITH LAUGHTER, ADVENTURE, AND ALL THE LITTLE MOMENTS THAT MAKE THE FLUKESTONES SO WONDERFULLY THEMSELVES.

SHE'D SPENT YEARS TRYING FOR THIS BABY. WHEN DOCTORS PLACED HER ON HOSPITAL REST MID-WAY THROUGH PREGNANCY, SHE TEXTED ME: "HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT A MATERNITY SHOOT AT THE HOSPITAL?" I SAID YES AND IT TURNED INTO ONE OF THE MOST INSPIRING, EMOTIONALLY FULL SESSIONS I'VE EVER HAD.

THIS BOY SCOUT DIDN’T WANT PICTURES IN A CAP AND GOWN. HE WANTED A SENIOR SESSION THAT ACTUALLY FELT LIKE HIM.

THEY OUTGREW THE HOUSE THEY ONCE BUILT. FAMILIAR ROUTINES, A GROWING BUMP, AND THE LAST FRAMES OF FOUR.

AFTER TWO ROUGH & TUMBLE BOYS, THIS MAMA IS EXPECTING A GIRL!!!

A MOM & DAUGHTER MAKING ART ON AN UNFORGETTABLE TRIP

TENDER MOMENTS WITH THIS FIRST TIME MOM

A HOUSE FULL OF THE COOLEST COLLECTED ARTWORK, TWO HIGH ENERGY BOYS IN COSTUMES, AND A PARENTS THAT KNOW HOW TO HAVE A GOOD TIME.

A NEW BABY IS THE PERFECT REASON TO GATHER THE WHOLE FAMILY FOR PHOTOS. SEE WHY THE JAMES FAMILY CHOSE AN IN-HOME GENERATIONAL SESSION TO CELEBRATE THEIR GRANDDAUGHTER'S FIRST YEAR AND CAPTURE MEMORIES THAT WILL ONLY CONTINUE TO GROW IN MEANING, YEAR AFTER YEAR.

I FIRST MET BELLA WHEN SHE WAS A FRESHMAN SITTING IN MY ART CLASS. FAST FORWARD A FEW YEARS AND HERE WE ARE — SENIOR PHOTOS, A LETTERMAN JACKET, LACROSSE GEAR, AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN. WATCHING KIDS GROW UP IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PARTS OF THIS JOB.

FOR MY MOTHER-IN-LAW’S BIRTHDAY SESSION, I HAD ONE GOAL: GIVE HER MEMORIES SHE COULD HOLD. I DIDN'T KNOW HOW MUCH THESE PHOTOS WOULD END UP MEANING TO ALL OF US.

ADDISON WAS A LITTLE NERVOUS BEFORE OUR SESSION, WHICH IS SO NORMAL. WITHIN TWENTY MINUTES OF WALKING INTO THE STUDIO, THE NERVES HAD FADED AND WE WERE JUST HANGING OUT.

WHEN A FORMER COWORKER AND FRIEND ASKED ME TO PHOTOGRAPH HER DAUGHTER'S SENIOR PORTRAITS, WE STARTED THE WAY I LOVE BEST: SITTING AROUND A COFFEE TABLE TALKING THROUGH WHO SHE WAS AND WHAT MATTERED TO HER.

THERE’S A CERTAIN EASE THAT ONLY HAPPENS AT HOME.

SOME SESSIONS ALL THE PIECES COME TOGETHER PERFECTLY . RIGHT PERSON, RIGHT LOCATION, RIGHT STYLING, RIGHT LIGHT. MALLORY’S MATERNITY SESSION AT THE LIMESTONE QUARRY WAS ONE OF THOSE.
