Meet the Associates
Elisa
Fisher
why we love her:
While perusing Elisa’s portfolio, Shaun remarked, “You know, Elisa really has an artistic eye, but her images are still so natural and relatable.” We love that when Elisa photographs a wedding, we know the images are going to be truly unique! And on top of that, once, when I asked if she was available for a meeting, she said with neither exclamation point nor emoji, “I’ll need to see if somebody can watch my cat.” She’s got a dry wit that you’ll miss if you’re not paying attention, she can keep all your plants alive, and she’s the absolute master of going with the flow.
Heather
Christian
Why we love her:
We actually had the immense pleasure of photographing Heather’s Virgin Islands wedding weekend, so we got to spend more time with her than most. And you don’t go off and get married in the Virgin Islands unless you just love life. This woman is always warming the room up with the sweetest and most sincere smile and laughter, but don’t worry, this mama can also take charge of a rowdy bunch of people! Her images are bright and fresh, and she’s got a MAJOR knack for capturing those wedding day candid, joyful smiles.
Lindsey
Brittain
WHy We Love Her:
We’re certain that if you’ve spent any time Googling Dallas wedding photographers, you will definitely have come across her name. She’s made herself a staple in the Dallas wedding market, and as a matter of fact, we’ve often referred clients to her for dates for which we had already been retained. She constructs thoughtful, compelling, and gorgeous images, makes all of her clients feel comfortable in front of the camera, and can handle all the pressures of a wedding day with quiet confidence. And on a personal note, this woman has that servant’s heart of absolute GOLD.

Your Menary Collective wedding imagery will be candid, clean, and fun. Heavy on the documentary perspective with a hint of each photographer’s artistic aesthetic, your images will help you relive all the smiles, joy, and little lost moments from your wedding day in a unique and compelling way.
