Lightly Photography

d executed all our shots with ease. Could not have had a better photog! Shoot them raw, sister!

!!!

e feel comfortable in front of the camera! The photos turned out great! She was so helpful in setting the timeline for photos the day of our wedding and handled all of our changes and edits beautifully. She kept us all right on track and we can't wait to receive our photos!

edding pictures, and we’re having a difficult time deciding which ones to print! They’re all so wonderful!

y of our magical day, she has amazing editing skills and can truly help coordinate family members no matter the circumstance. A sassy niece, a tired grandparent, really any situation thrown her way is handled. She caught every moment I asked for and then some, Jennifer made sure to stop us to capture the moment. I couldn’t have asked for a better gift, I now get to look back at the best day of my life anytime I want and that is only because of her. She has the eye for photography and I am truly blessed to have found her.

how much they enjoyed her on the wedding day!

iked having my picture taken but felt completely comfortable having her take our photos and guide us through poses. Every single photo we got back was absolutely beautiful and truly captured our big day. Jennifer was kind, understanding, and always made us laugh. I would recommend this company to all my friends and family.

t big fans of being the center of attention, but Jennifer did such an amazing job of bringing us out out of our shells and making the experience fun. We have received so many comments oh how amazing our photos came out and I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

love with the shots by the Lightly photography. They were very classic, capturing all of the special moments, candid shots, and more formal family pictures. Once we decided on Lightly, we actually received a sweet wedding gift from them, the 5 Love Languages book. Jennifer Aguilar was our photographer along with a 2nd photographer on the day of our wedding. I communicated with Jennifer prior, planning out the wedding day schedule. She was very patient with all of our questions and requests for a ton of different photos to be taken. On the day of, they both arrived on time, if not early. They were both very sweet, down to earth, and made everyone feel very comfortable when taking pictures. They were also great about keeping everyone on schedule and making sure we didn’t miss any important shots but also didn’t spend the whole time taking pictures. They were very creative and provided guidance when needed/asked. I was blown away by all of the beautiful pictures we got that we’ll be able to cherish forever. I also loved the personal touch (Our story, etc) they added to the blog when posting the pictures. In my opinion they go above and beyond in what you’d expect of photographers and the pictures show it all! I am so grateful to have been able to use them and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great photographer.

groom got the photos they were looking for. Lastly, their photos came out natural and hardly looked edited, which is exactly what I was looking for!

e wonderful. Amanda was able to capture their personalities and make them feel comfortable so they could just be themselves and relax. When the wedding day came, Amanda and her fellow photographer did not disappoint. They were both so fun to be with and made the day relaxing and enjoyable for all family and guests. We can't wait to see the results of their wedding pictures! Many of our other Ft. Worth based vendors were so excited to see Amanda as they all have enjoyed working with her in the past and had nothing but great things to say about her. We found the Ft. Worth group of wedding vendors to be such a supportive and caring team. They all seem to look out for one another. That was refreshing to see. I would highly recommend Amanda and her team at Lightly Photography. Roz & John Hyland

lped showcase our wedding so well.

at ease and getting great shots (even in the rain!). She put together an amazing wedding blog with photos, it was so beautiful and still something I go back and read. On wedding day, Jennifer and her partner were working hard! They captured every special moment, down to the last detail. I love how Jennifer captured our special day, the day goes by so quickly, and the pictures are something we will treasure for a lifetime.

with my family, we had an absolute blast and she became part of the fam. She also has an incredible amount of patience (trust me, I had a GIANT wedding party and we wanted pics in the freezing cold!) Not only will you get an amazing photographer if you hire Jennifer, but you'll get an amazing new friend as well! I couldn't recommend Jennifer and the entire Lightly Photography team more! :)

, to rehearsal dinner pictures, to sneak peek pictures from our wedding day, Tracy and her team were with us throughout our engagement journey and into the beginning of our marriage. We could not be more happy and in love with all of our pictures. Not only are the photos bright, vibrant, lively, and full of beautiful lighting that only expert photographers can capture, but Tracy knew exactly the kind of pictures we were hoping for...not only the ones that perfectly captured the love, happy nerves, and over the moon feelings that Alex and I were experiencing as we began to realize we were married, but Tracy captured the most important and timeless memories Alex and I will ever have - she captured all of our loved ones, family, and friends celebrating alongside us as we said our vows and dancing the night away. Tracy isn't just your regular ol' photographer.. she was beebopping on the dance floor and on the stage with us capturing the joy and happiness we were all exuding. Whenever I look at our photos, I can vividly remember that moment and the conversations that were shared and the dance moves that were made. Tracy and team, you all are so dear to Alex and me. Thank you for making our wedding day oh so special, and for allowing us to relive that amazing, God-ordained, beautiful day over and over again through our pictures! We love y'all!!!

uch they loved the photos & what a great job the photographer did. Thank you for the beautiful memories you captured for us!

picture she snapped of us - she made us feel completely at ease. Not only did she perfectly capture some of the dearest moments of our lives, she managed a large bridal party with professional composure, familiarized herself with our venue and ceremony site, and worked seamlessly with the other vendors to the point where I didn't ever feel distracted or overwhelmed. These were things that I didn't think of when originally booking a photographer - in hindsight, some of the things I mentioned are just as important as having great pictures at the end of the day. I was lucky that Tracy checked off all my boxes and more. Thank you Tracy and team for the way that you made us and our day feel special, and for celebrating us with so much love! We couldn't be more grateful! Work with Tracy and you won't be disappointed but rather your expectations will be exceeded!

is a genius at what she does; she's so creative, the lighting in my photos is gorgeous, and she was very patient with posing. She captured every special moment of the wedding perfectly!

tire experience from booking and signing, to the actual wedding day and more, was both effortless and flawless! Karolina, in the office, was so wonderful to work with when it came to scheduling, reminders, questions, etc. The communication with her, and the entire team, was definitely top notch! Jennifer, my second photographer (for the wedding day), was just fabulous! She arrived at the groom’s “get ready” location to capture the dude moments the morning of, and the whole crew had nothing but positive feedback! Additionally, her hard work, helping hand, sweet and bubbly self was so pleasant during the ceremony and reception! Of course I had to save the best for last! My lead photographer, Annie Kercho! There aren’t enough words! Her personality, hard work, skills, knowledge, communication, professionalism and more is just hands down phenomenal! All three “events” (engagement shoot, bridal shoot, wedding day) with Annie were fun, light hearted, stress free and memorable. At my engagement shoot, she was about six months pregnant but let me tell you, if you think that hindered or interfered with anything, you’re way wrong. If there was a shot she wanted, she got the shot. Even if it meant getting down and dirty in the mud or on the basketball court! My bridal shoot was one for the books. I don’t think we stopped laughing the entire time! The wedding day she was outstanding. Everyone loved Annie! She is so easy to work with and her photography is out of this world. I would book with her and the team 1,000 times over again! I am so in love with all of my pictures! They are breath taking! If you’re looking for a photographer, this is where your search ends! I promise you will not be disappointed! Thank you for everything Annie and team!

- engagement photos, prep photos, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception - absolutely AMAZING. Annie, Thank You so much for capturing our day so perfectly! We had an absolute blast. You are so talented! Rob and I are so happy that we had the opportunity to work with you and Lightly Photography.

meaningful moments. She is also so quick at getting people into the right poses and keeping the wedding day picture craziness moving. Tracy was also so much fun to work with and we both felt so comfortable with her and were able to truly enjoy every moment.

nd meaningful moments. However, most importantly, Tracy was an absolute pleasure to work and spend time with. Her very nature provides an amazing warm and caring experience. Along with stunning pictures you will also treasure every minute of your time spent with Tracy. I cannot recommend her more!

are absolutely perfect and I will definitely be hiring in the future for family photos. You will not regret your decision hiring Amanda!

d an absolutely fabulous job at keeping us all together and in line, and made sure we did not miss any major photo opportunity. Amanda was great both at helping us have some wonderful engagement photos but also plenty of pictures from our wedding to choose from. It is incredibly hard to choose our favorites from our big day! They are the best for a reason!

ry about ANYTHING on the day of our wedding because we knew we were in such great hands. I’m so happy to have these stunning photos for the rest of our lives! Highly and happily recommend Lightly!!

s. During our reception we even snuck outside to get some incredible shots downtown when no one else was around, and these turned out great! I definitely recommend everything about Lightly and Amanda - they were organized, punctual, and very professional throughout the whole process and even helped revamp our day of wedding schedule after we had a 100% chance of rain in our wedding day forecast. With her input, we switched up the locations and were still able to get the photos that I wanted even with the wet grass and rain. We also used the Lightly services to print our engagement photos into a guest book for our wedding, and that turned out better than we could have hoped for. This is a great company all around and I highly recommend using Amanda for your wedding pictures!

nts. It captures both the raw present moment that is unique to those images, as well as the purest essence of their story. I guess what I'm trying to say is, she is way better than the mall lady who used her grandma's curtain as the back drop for your 6th grade pictures that was developed at Walgreens!

he different lighting in each room and the design and effort put into every shot was truly amazing artwork! I can’t thank them enough for these wonderful photos! I would highly recommend to anyone! Will be using them again for any photography work!

d informative throughout the planning process, and on the wedding day not only did she keep our large (and fairly rambunctious) wedding party in line and on schedule, she pinned on boutonnieres, helped bustle my dress, and kept me feeling relaxed. She put up with weird requests, rowdy groomsmen, our huge families, schedule changes, and more without even batting an eye. On top of all of that, she captured our wedding day beautifully- she caught so many moments we missed or didn't remember, and captured the emotions of the day so well. My husband and I are absolutely thrilled to have such a perfect record of one of the best days of our lives. She knocked it out of the ballpark for our engagement pictures as well! She's still the only person I know who's managed to get my dog to look right at her for a picture. Annie's work is stunning and she and the rest of the Lightly team are a delight to work with. I cannot recommend them enough!

y look fantastic!

ery second of both days and the photos came out incredible. If I could give her and Lightly 6 stars, I would!!!

Photography. We met with Tracey and felt she was just a tad more than we budgeted for, so she recommended Amanda. Amanda is literally the best gift for any bride. She seriously is absolutely amazing in every single way possible. Let me tell you why: • She is professional. All my emails were responded to in a timely manner • She dressed professionally our venue • She has a personality that is a burst of joy. Our guests said our photographers were the best and blended in with the rest of the people. • For our engagement session we had a blast getting to know Amanda. • On the day of the wedding, Amanda literally saved the day! Our wedding planner wasn’t on top of it and important details were behind (floral was late, guests didn’t know where to go, we weren’t sure when the groom was coming) and she stepped right up to coordinating when needed. She calmed me down and just made me smile when we needed it. Following the wedding, she followed up to make sure that I talked with the vendors of concern. • Even though she photographs multiple couples, we still felt special. She sent a book prior to the wedding to help us prepare for wedding and also sent a canvas picture following. • Our pictures were provided in a timely manner and the pictures captured all the emotions of the day. If we could do it all over again, we would chose Amanda. We decided from this point forward she will be our family photographer. I promise if you book with Lightly Photography and Amanda you won’t regret your decision and will be thankful you spent the extra money on it.

ssional attitude made the day great! She did it all! I am super excited and I will post something more once I get the pictures back! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

gement pictures with Amanda and they were beautiful! I love them! Annie was very sweet and professional on the wedding day. It was a super hot day in June so she worked fast to keep us and the wedding party out of the heat which I appreciated so much! We also had some rowdy groomsmen and Annie did a great job rounding everyone up and getting them to behave for pictures 😂 I’ve only seen a sneak peak of my wedding pictures so far and I loved what I saw! Her attention to detail and light is truly beautiful!

just saying that. Many friends and family members have gone on and on about how lucky we are to have had Annie. She just knows how to capture the most beautiful moments. She also provided us with our photos weeks before we expected. Love her and the entire Lightly team!

veryone!

least 15 times. I have received SO many compliments on how GREAT her work was and how she took so many good shots. People won't stop talking about our pictures and every time it makes me smile! Tracy was so great to work with. She is the friendliest and happiest person you will meet. She is so much fun to work with and always made us feel so comfortable. We had a lot of questions leading up to our big day with scheduling, what pictures to take, timing, etc. and she was so patient answering everything and making it work. She was a great help with both of our moms as well assuring we would get everything done. Photography is a definitely a big investment and not something I was going to take lightly. It was the #1 item / vendor on my list to book from the beginning as photos are one of the few things to could take with you from your wedding day. I interviewed / talked with probably 6-8 photographers and am so happy I chose Tracy - her professionalism, friendliness, quality (and quantity) of pictures, everything was just perfect. She turns pictures around very quickly as well which is another added bonus. Choosing Tracy and her team as your photographer would be one of the best choices you could make throughout your wedding planning. Remember, the pictures stay with you for a lifetime, so you'll want an amazing photographer like Tracy :) It is well worth the investment. Thank you Tracy, Annie and Team for everything you did for us!

pictures of me and my husband. She is a great at giving instructions and always has the right words to say so that you don't feel silly or awkward. We cannot wait to get our wedding photos back. I am confident they will be amazing! :)

almost impossible because they're all amazing! Not only is Annie incredibly talented and has a great eye for what looks good in pictures, but she is such a joy to work with! Whoever you hire, you'll be spending one of the most important days of your life with them, and I am so glad Annie was there for us! She was so great in directing family/friends in pictures, making sure we weren't bombarded with arriving wedding guests when taking our bridal party pictures before the wedding, and giving us time during the first look and after the wedding to be alone together and really soak it all in! We loved everything about working with Annie and can't say enough good things about her!

ry photo they took! Tracy and Annie were amazing day-of and put up with our crazy shenanigans! We could not be more thankful for their incredible work and skill!

als in Dallas and I knew immediately how much I was going to love the pictures. She was so professional and yet fun to work with and really captured my personality. My bridals turned out SUPERB! On our actual wedding day Amanda and Annie were fantastic. They captured all of the big moments and so many little moments. I had multiple girls in my wedding party comment on how great they were because every time I turned around there was Amanda or Annie. They made sure they were always there capturing dance floor pictures or pictures of me and my guest. After the wedding Amanda put a sneak peak of her favorites on the Lightly Photography blog and Facebook, as well as creating us a short video from our wedding day. It was all so perfect! Lightly Photography made it so easy for us! Pictures were one of my primary concerns and where I would have spent more money, if needed, to make sure I received excellent quality pictures. Lightly Photography blew away my expectations! I was thoroughly impressed with everything and would highly recommend them to anyone!

- that suited us perfectly. Tracy made us feel so at ease in front of the camera! Her professionalism especially showed through on our wedding day when the weather through us a curve ball and we had to make some last minute changes before the ceremony. She stayed with us the entire time, capturing each moment and keeping us calm and focused. Tracy does beautiful work and its clear that she really cares about each client. It was truly a treat to work with her!

omsmen) and also a large family, she did a great job wrangling everyone for photos. Most importantly though, her photos are top quality. I haven't seen any others that compare. Photography quality is definitely something you don't want to skimp on & she delivered 100%. She's also really great to work with!!

with our engagement pictures, when the wedding pictures came back there were only a handful we really loved and the majority we just liked. I feel like over the course of the 10 hours of the day, 2 photographers, and the money we were spending, there should have been twice as many photos then were taken in my opinion. Also, I feel like some of the angles the photos were taken from were just not flattering at all..I mean I understand I am my worst critic but I just felt in seeing some photos that were spot on- why were there not more taken like that for the portraits of my husband and I. Its hard to feel sad or dissapointed about your photos since its the day that matter the most, but I definitely would have changed a few things or spoken up more to see pictures as they were being taken. maybe have gone with Tracy herself.

eceived many compliments. Thanks, Tracy!

r missed priceless photos. The "you may kiss the bride photo" was not captured. I do think she is overall a good photographer, but she was having an off day and it showed in her work. Now we can never get those photos. If I could go back an do it again, I would use a different wedding photographer.

took 2 different vantage points of every important moment of our wedding day. Sarah took all of the photos we asked for and captured all of the spontaneous special moments of the day. She was great at blending into the background. We have had so many compliments on our wedding pictures and my bridal portraits. We will be proud to show this photography to our friends and family for generations to come. Thank you again for your wonderful photographs! Caitlin & Brian Sauter 11-2-13

engagement shoot so they modified the package to come and take photos of our Rehearsal Party which was wonderful! The Lightly Photography team was fantastic and I would recommend them to anyone!

n the most personal light possible. She offered tons of ideas to create the best portfolio of pictures, and really captured the love and excitement surrounding our big day. I could not imagine our wedding events being captured more beautifully then what she did, and would absolutely recommend her to any couple getting married in the DFW area! She is just a doll and so fun to work with - and her work speaks for itself about how much she loves what she does. She's the best!

and me and my mom did not have our hair and makeup done. And when she arrived she mentioned that we should have had that done a long time ago. Some of the photos were rushed and I wish we had known when to be ready. Other than that I HIGHLY recommend Tracy and her staff, they are GREAT!

itting down with her a few weeks before helped a great deal to make sure we were on the same page with the timeline. The entire team at Tracy Autem and Lightly have been overhwelmingly helpful and I can't wait to go through all of the stunning photography and put together our wedding album. I would recommend these ladies to anyone!

at to work with Tracy and her assistants - all were very professional and talented. Totally worth the money.

have found our life photographer and can't wait to use her in other stepping stones of our life!

ngagement session and wedding event itself. All items would have to be purchased at an additional cost. On a positive note, Tracy was very easy to get a long with and did take beautiful pictures. She even took some pictures that I specifically wanted during the engagement session. There was always someone who quickly responded to my messages and emails if I had a question. If you are looking for beautiful wedding photos then I would recommend Tracy!

ofessional, very creative, and most importantly, very driven. We always had our proofs within a week of our session, which is unheard of. With each release of pictures from our session, I felt like crying and shouting with joy. They were all so beautiful. She is very good at answering all your questions and helping you with picking out your albums and pictures, etc. Her blog is wonderful and followed by many and it was such a treat to be listed on there. I will absolutely work with Tracy for every big occasion that we will experience in our lives. I just adore her and recommend her to every bride in the DFW area and beyond...because she will travel!

fabulous job on everything! She worked with our schedule and even stayed a little bit longer at the wedding just so she could capture some special moments. I definitely recommend Sarah for anyone who is looking for a photographer for their wedding!!!!

, Amanda, captured every important moment of my wedding day. I couldn't have asked for a better team of photographers! The cost is reasonably priced and it is worth every penny- and then some!

e seen. Hire this team and you will not be disappointed. From the moment we met Tracy, we knew we we had made a great choice. I could go on for days on how creative and professional her team are. Wedding pictures are one of the few things that you have to remind you of your special day. Their team gave us something that we can cherish for the rest of our lives. After seeing all of our photos and talking with Tracy, my sister and her husband have booked with them to have a photo shoot. My parents are also going to hire them sometime next Fall for family sessions. Tracy, you are amazing and so talented. THANK YOU!

d Tracy to other brides and I hope to work with her again in the future!

dding pictures. The photos are amazing- the album is EXACTLY what I have always dreamed of having. Memories that will last a lifetime thanks to Sarah and Lightly Photography. Thank you so much for being a part of our memories and making something we can cherish forever!

ectations and did an engagement shoot for us. She was professional, personable and made being in front of the camera easy. On the day of our wedding, she helped us get through some minor crisis, did a great job capturing everything that was going on. Most importantly, she captured my wedding day the way always want to remember it. I have about 50 favorite photos of my wedding day!!! I highly recommend Lightly Photography.

10 wedding and every time someone sees our photos or our blog they are amazed. I look forward to recommending and using Lightly Photography & Tracey A. in the near future!

inue to do so. I hope to work with her again in the future!
