Dallas Event Photography: Light, Wind and Other Tales
Ah, Texas. She’s expansive. She’s unique. She’s wild. She’s spontaneous. And she keeps me and my Dallas event photography team on our toes… always. Last week we were enjoying 80 degree temps with wind so wild it could make big Texas hair on just about anybody, and today I’m looking out my window at icy streets and snow-speckled grass.
In Texas, you never know what you’re gonna get. Many locations are known for their consistency with weather - every day is 70, mostly sunny with a few sparse clouds in the bright blue sky. Not my Texas. One day it’s 95 and you’re enjoying ice cream by the pool and the next day, a snow storm has wrecked the power grid and we are all huddled by the fire using socks for gloves cuz nobody is prepared.
So was the story last week at a shoot. We had been enjoying a mild January, nothing too out of the ordinary in terms of weather. Then, as Texas often does, we shifted on a dime. It was suddenly chilly and VERY windy. Does wind stop groundbreakings? No. Does wind stop conferences? Certainly not. Does wind stop outdoor events? The show goes on! And the Dallas event photography team better be ready.
That’s where our expertise comes in. When you hire JWCannon Creative, you’re hiring know-how. We didn’t just get started in the photography industry. We’ve been here. We are prepared to handle all sorts of unexpected things from weather to last-minute location changes to on-the-fly run-of-show updates. Seeing it all means you’re prepared, calm and ready to adjust.
That was the story last week with the wind. We had quite a few projects that needed adjusting. Lighting needed to be re-configured, set-up had to be done earlier, shots and angles had to be reimagined. We roundtable as a team to ensure you get the best images, no matter what. When weather plays a factor, you can bet we are making a plan.
Quality event photographers in Dallas will do this without a client ever knowing. Why? Because the behind the scenes that you DON’T see is why you hire us. We’ve done this before… many times, in fact! That means your event, conference or private party constantly benefits from our many years of photography and videography experience.
At JWCannon Creative, we think about all the things so you don’t have to. You’ve planned the event and are busily tying up all the loose ends that inevitably pop up. When you hire our Dallas event photography team, you’re hiring peace of mind for your event. And in Texas, that really means something!
