About James Willis Photography

---

Not just a hobby, but a burning passion.

I discovered my passion for photography entirely by chance. While on vacation, a friend of mine showcased what he could do with his camera and I was hooked. The love of my life must’ve seen the excitement in my eyes because mere months later she gave me one of my all-time life-changing birthday gifts – A Nikon D90 camera. I became determined to take classes unveiling the art of photography.

I studied hard, practiced extensively and started to see the quality in my photos that peeked my interests to begin with. I began to progress from snapping pics of landscapes to portraits to the ultimate – engagement and wedding photos. My passion is driven by capturing and enhancing the emotions in my photos. I truly feel like I’ve found my joy and purpose in life.

Having been raised in Louisiana and making Dallas home since 2004 allows me to not only know the area well but also inject soul, festivity and authenticity into my work. When I travel to a new area I make sure to research the area well and locate the absolute best venue for my style of photography.

This way I can assure that my quality is guaranteed worldwide. Additionally, I gather varying information from each and every client in order to assure my captures match your intent 100%. Every one of my shoots is customized to my clients’ desires. 

Unprecedented. Authentic. Timeless. Nothing worth cherishing ever happened by being staged so I believe in taking advantage of the moment. Flip through my work and you’ll see a pattern. A pattern of timeless moments captured on film.. I don’t take wedding pictures, I anticipate and capture the moments that you cannot stand to be lost forever. My strongest urge? I intend your grandchildren to comb through your wedding album and have shivers run down their back from the feeling as if they were there.
