David Paul Nelson Photography

Introduction: For fashion photography, check out the first website listed below. For wedding photography, visit the second website listed below. Examples of fashion pictures, seniors, families, bridals, engagements and weddings are all on the websites, as well as pricing. For a one hour fashion photo shoot, here's what you can expect: We have a home studio in Parker (just east of Plano) and in north Dallas. We can meet at either property, depending on what is most convenient for you. We generally have high fashion shoots in Dallas, and small family shoots, maternity shoots, and children shoots in Parker. When you arrive at the scheduled time, we will spend a few moments getting to know each other. Next, we will review the clothing and jewelry and shoe choices you brought with you and make a decision what to wear for your photo shoot (unless previously determined). Please bring as many choices as possible (you can email us pictures and we can discuss in advance). Then, you will get ready and check your hair and makeup while we set up the lights. When you come in to shoot, we will take several test shots and determine the best lighting setup for your height and skin tone. Then, when we have settled on the right lighting, we’ll start giving you direction and snapping photos. Melanie will be standing behind David, showing you example poses and talking you through the photo shoot. David will also be giving direction. Melanie will be your comic relief, and model example. We will work together for approximately an hour, and will intermittently show you the pictures to give you an idea what it looks like. We may decide to change backgrounds during the shoot, or use props, just depends on how it goes. This is a fun, laid-back setting and it’s as important to us that you enjoy your time with us as you are happy with your photos. We want you to come back!
