I hadn't shot anything on my camera for weeks and I needed any excuse to blow the dust off of it. Thankfully Brittney was available and willing to team up with me for our first photo collaboration.

The date was booked and we were both eager for the day to arrive. However, the closer we got to the shoot day, the grayer things started to look. The weather forecast predicted rain and an overcast, but we had no intentions on ditching our plans.

Thankfully, the clouds had other plans, and to our surprise, the sun was out that evening and brought some much welcomed warmth with it. You can never predict Texas weather.

Brittney and I took a photo-stroll through the historic Bishop Arts neighborhood in the north Oak Cliff area of Dallas. I really wanted to capture her cozy, winter-wear look against the Dallas winter backdrop. I’d say mission accomplished.

(I used the Canon T3i with the 18-55 kit lens.)
