Elegant Dallas, Texas Wedding | Kerbi + Phillip Cruz

Kerbi and Phillip are finally married and I could not be happier :)

Fun Fact: I met Kerbi, — Kerbi Kerb we call her, in Florence, Italy when we studied abroad there in 2013. I am so so thankful I got to meet this wonderful human, and that she found her perfect human to spend the rest of her life with. Kerbi and Phillip belong together! I smile every time I think of them because they are just so freakin nice, thoughtful, and appreciative.

Miss Kerbi was also the most elegant and stunning bride I have ever seen. I just cant even!!! lol

Kerbi and Phillip had their ceremony and reception on the rooftop at El Fenix restaurant, downtown Dallas & it was magical. They got ready at The Statler Hotel, which was also a magical dream, but we hit a little bit of a snag trying to get permission to take photos on their rooftop. Peter ended up saving the day, by being his charming, resilient self and got us the red write bands that prove we have permission to shoot there. Needless to say, we had to get a photo.

One of my favorite parts about photographing weddings, is seeing all the joy and happiness everyone has. & The Cruz wedding had no shortage of love, happy tears, and laughter. I am so grateful I was able to capture those moments :) — this job never gets old!

Also, Kerbi’s review made me cry lol. Read it here —

Hannah was absolutely meant to capture beautiful moments. Hannah was our photographer for our engagement photos (April 2019) and wedding day (November 2019). She went above and beyond any expectations I had for these special moments. She puts so much care into the couples she is shooting and truly captures the happiness in every picture. Hannah and her husband work perfectly together. Her husband, Peter, was so kind and helpful on our wedding day, making sure Hannah was able to perform at her total best. I have been told by anyone who has seen our wedding photos that they are some of the best they have seen and I reply it is all because of the quality and care of the photographer. I highly recommend Hannah Ampe Photography! Thank you Hannah for capturing our perfect day.
