About

Cue stunning details, epic dance parties, and unforgettable moments!

More than a recollection of florals, invitation flat lays, and perfect portraits, you want wedding photos that capture the story of your love for each other. And your people. Plus every ounce of joy and emotion along the way.

Because you want to remember it all, and who can blame you? This is a celebration of a lifetime, and we won't let you forget it.

Our combined 30+ years photographing weddings has taught us that this day, this experience, and these photos are truly about you. So, while we bring a unique perspective and we're extremely intentional about the color, composition and lighting of your photos, our ultimate goal is to focus on you. And the beauty, love, and emotion that surrounds you.

Absolutely Adore Amanda

I have absolutely loved working with Amanda and CJ! Just got my sneak peak pictures back and I am in love! We’ve gotten compliments from guests on the pictures and I can’t wait to see the rest of them.

Incredible Experience with Lightly Photography

I would and already have recommended Lightly Photography to other brides! They were recommended by our venue, The Ashton Depot, and I was so glad. I felt put at ease as soon as I spoke to Jennifer Aguilar. I wasn’t quite sure what to ask or discuss and she gently walked us through the process and potential options. We booked Jennifer for both engagement photos and our wedding day. I really appreciated her suggestion to provide my husband and I some time between ceremony and reception to capture photos on our own.
As a very structured and scheduled bride, I was comforted by how organized and professional the company and especially, Jennifer, was in preparation for our big day. I appreciated their support on building our timeline and list of requested photos. On the big day, both Jennifer and CJ, second photographer, were timely and were great with organizing our big families for family photos. They were on the dance floor for all the dancing, and we are so blessed by their energy and support all day long.
Last, but not least, the final photos were incredibly beautiful and captured our favorite moments from our wedding day. We were so excited to share with friends and family! It’s been hard to choose our favorite, but I’m thankful for their sharing processes and online photo albums. We look forward to working with Lightly Photography to build our heirloom album.

I would recommend Tracy Autem & Lightly Photography to everyone!

Tracy Autem & Lightly Photography is a preferred vendor for both the Fort Worth Club and the Hotel Drover! Two establishments I love and trust! Tracy and her team were energetic, engaging, personable and made us all feel at ease! Tracy is creative and has an amazing eye at capturing the right angle, lighting and expressions of her subjects. We've seen a few sneak peeks from wedding day. The pictures are stunning!

Lightly Photography is the best!

Highly recommend! Thank you to Amanda for taking such amazing bridal portraits and beautiful photographs of our best day! Amanda and her assistant Cassandra took gorgeous photos, and their professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding. All of our guests complimented how great they were on our wedding day, and helped make the atmosphere very relaxing and fun! Me and my husband were amazed with how prompt Amanda was at taking photos of our large families as well. She was so kind and helpful all around during my bridal portraits and the day of the wedding. Will certainly hire again in the future, especially for family portraits! Lightly Photography is hands down the BEST!

Amazing photography!! So happy with the results!

Jennifer of Lightly Photography was so wonderful to work with! She was very kind and fun to work with throughout the whole planning process and on day of, too! She put me and everyone else at ease and when we had a power outage during the getting ready part of the day, she went with it and we got some beautiful photos as a result! Her work is phenomenal and I couldn't be any happier with the results -- sooo many gorgeous photos that my husband and I will cherish for a lifetime! I couldn't recommend Jennifer or Lightly Photography more!!

So Easy to Work With

We worked with Amanda at Lightly Photography for our February 2020 wedding and are so glad we did! We shot our engagement photos in November and she was super accommodating of location changes due to weather and made my camera-shy husband and me 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!

A+ Photographers

Absolutely wonderful company, photographers, and all around experience. Our photographer took the time to get to know us before hand, was flexible in providing us services that fit our needs, and was so fun and easy to work with. I have never liked 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.

Tracy is one of my favorite photographers and that's saying a lot, because I know and work with several talented ones! Tracy and her team pay incredible attention to detail, they capture every special moment....I can only imagine how wonderful those couples will feel in the years to come as they view their photos over and over again. When we do weddings together, I really look forward to getting the images of my brides to share and post, the images are key to showing off the makeup I do and Tracy captures it all. Plus, she's fast! Great turnaround time on editing, which I appreciate and my brides love as well. Simply one of the very best DFW has to offer when it comes to wedding photography!
