BRIDAL PORTRAITS WITH HAYLEE - The Dallas Arboretum - A Dreamy Garden Escape

Updated: Jun 3



If you’re looking for the perfect spot to capture timeless, elegant bridal portraits in Dallas, the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden is pure magic.

 

When Haylee said she was considering the Dallas Arboretum as a possible location I was all in. With 66 acres of seasonal blooms, manicured pathways, and sweeping lake views, it’s one of my favorite locations for capturing brides at their most radiant in the Dallas area.

 

Whether you’re drawn to the romantic rose garden, the whimsical Woman’s Garden, or the dramatic stone staircases with White Rock Lake in the background, the Dallas Arboretum offers endless backdrops that feel like a fairytale.

 

Morning and golden hour light here is soft and dreamy—ideal for flattering portraits that highlight both your beauty and your gown.

 

Pro tip: I will sometimes suggest booking a weekday morning session, during certain times of the year, for fewer crowds and softer lighting. Permits are required, and a changing room is recommended, but when you book your bridal session with me, I will walk you through my process and make sure you are treated like a queen hroughout the entire experience.

 

Your bridal portraits are more than just photos—they’re a celebration of this sweet, quiet moment before “I do.” And there’s no better place to capture that magic than at the Dallas Arboretum.
