Dallas Junkin Photography

Tuscaloosa Portrait Photographer since 2017

I specialize in heartfelt, stress-free family photography for parents who want real smiles. With nine years of experience (and plenty of silly headbands), I make picture day feel fun, relaxed, and memorable - even for the littlest ones.

Real Life Sessions

My heart has been longing to add a lifestyle session that feels like real life. Real life sessions will capture the every day magic that makes this season of life sweet. I imagine these sessions as the relaxed, laid-back version of my portrait sessions. These will be more casual, more candid, and more authentic. Whether it be at home, at the park, or getting some ice cream, Real Life sessions exude that warm fuzzy feeling that makes your insides glow and make you remember how blessed you are.

About Dallas

I started this business in 2017 when I was studying Business Management at The University of Alabama. What began as a hobby I was passionate about has evolved into a career rooted in love. I love photography because I believe in celebrating seasons of life. I believe capturing seasons of life is one of the most precious, valuable ways to be able to look back on your life. I believe the intentionality behind professional photos captures not just appearances and aesthetics, but emotions and how the particular season felt. Portraits are invaluable to me, so I feel incredibly blessed that I am able to create that gift for others.

A few of my favorites…

My Best Friend

My favorite person since 2014.
My babies

Being a mama has been one of the greatest joys of my life.
Honey

Honey is my best friend, emotional support dog, co-worker, and the dog emoji doppelgänger.
Traveling

I love getting to explore new places, particularly the beauty of nature! My favorite trip so far is Glacier National Park in Montana.
Gluten Free Pasta

Pasta has always been my ultimate comfort food. I recently found out I was allergic to wheat (and nuts), so I have had to completely eliminate it from my diet. Now I’m on the hunt for the best GF alternatives!
Nature Photography

There is something so grounding and awe-inspiring about capturing the beauty of creation in nature.
Reading

One of my bucket list goals is to read enough books to build a home library - and I’m getting pretty close!
Creating

I come from a long lineage of craftsmanship and creating. I love to make hand-made, vintage-inspired heirlooms that pay homage to generations of slow, intentionally made gifts.
