Memphis Wedding Photographer- Rustic Engagement Session- [Dallas + Austin]

Dallas and Austin’s engagement photos were an actual BLAST.

One of my first thoughts when I met Dallas and Austin was “Do y’all have a dog named Waco?” Do me a favor everyone, and pretend I’m funny, thanks!

Sweet Dallas and Austin have been together for 5 years on April 7, 2018. Dallas started a part time job at a family owned pharmacy in their hometown which ended up being part of Austin’s family that owned it. They were both working there at the time, which is how they met. As fate would have it, these two love birds would both end up in the medical field. Both Dallas and Austin are both selfless nurses and their passion is serving others.

When I asked Dallas about their first date, she said this:

“Our first date was at Casa Mexicana (which he doesn’t like but didn’t mention that until years down the road) Thankfully he can talk to a brick wall because I was so shy and my face was beat red the entire time.”

Isn’t that what a big part of true love really is all about? Eating at restaurants you don’t love cause you know your partner does?

During Dallas and Austin’s engagement session, I naturally couldn’t help but comment on Dallas’ gorgeous engagement ring. I told Austin what a great job he did, and he told us the MOST incredible story about how he actually got her ring FOR FREE. You read that correctly. FOR. FREE.

Here’s the story told by Austin:

“The day I chose the diamond to go on the ring, I went up to the counter to check out. The manager of the store informed me of their biggest promotion of the year and that it was occurring with purchases made Monday through Friday of that particular week only. The promotion was going to occur when the university of Memphis football team played there opening football game of the year at home. Specifically to win the promotion, the university of Memphis had to either: return the opening kickoff to start the game in the first half for a touchdown, or to return the opening kickoff of the second half if they were the team receiving the ball first to start the third quarter. The university of Memphis played defense to start the game, so the promotion all relied on the second half kickoff. To start the third quarter, the university of Memphis football player returned the kickoff 80+ yards for a touchdown and sealed the deal for the ring purchase to be 100% covered. Bottom line, free diamond engagement ring.”

My jaw is on the floor too.

Dallas and Austin are getting married next weekend at The Mill at Plein Air and we cannot WAIT to be a part of their special day. We’re so excited to work alongside Southern Sparkle Wedding and Events, VMWeddings Studio, and Emily Cohen.

Also, Dallas was absolutely DAZZLING at her engagement session compliments of Kasey Acuff and Emily Cohen. 

You guys enjoy!
